    Carlos Boozer, strained hamstring, still out.
    By the time Kris Humphries sliced open the webbing between two of his fingers in the waning seconds of the Jazz's 73-62 loss to the New York Knicks on Monday night at the Delta Center, the Jazz hurt virtually everywhere between head and toe.
    Perhaps the toughest sting, though, was that heard in Jazz ears after owner Larry H. Miller delivered a second-half tongue lashing that witnesses said was an expletive-filled tirade.
    After the Jazz were outscored 18-8 in the third quarter, Miller left his usual courtside seat and joined the Jazz's between-periods huddle.
    As it broke up he barked, with words apparently directed at Jazz coach Jerry Sloan. He then moved to the end of the bench, where players including Greg Ostertag and Matt Harpring could be seen getting dressed down. Miller finally turned to the Jazz's suits ? injured players on the inactive list, including both Kirilenko and Boozer ? and seemed to have heated words for them as well.</div>
