NEW YORK -- The Brooklyn Nets acquired guard Marcus Thornton from the Sacramento
Kings for Jason Terry and Reggie Evans on Wednesday, removing two little-used
veterans from their aging roster and hoping a younger one can rediscover his
scoring touch.

. Terry came from Boston along with Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce but has
appeared in just 35 games after a knee injury, averaging 4.5 points on 36 per
cent shooting. Evans was a favourite of fans but not coach Jason Kidd, who used
him in just 30 of their 51 games. Evans made 56 starts last season and led the
Nets with 11.1 rebounds per game, but lost his starting spot when the Nets
acquired Garnett, and then fell behind rookie Mason Plumlee in Kidds rotation.
Thornton averaged 21.3 points in 23 games with the Kings in 2010-11 after being
acquired in a midseason trade with New Orleans. He then led the Kings with 18.7
points per game in 2011-12, but had fallen out of favour under defensive-minded
coach Michael Malone, even getting benched at one point to make way for rookie
Ben McLemore. "Marcus is a proven scorer in this league," Nets general manager
Billy King said in a statement. "He is a young talent who will help us in the
backcourt." Thornton, now 26 years old, is averaging just 8.3 points, 2.7
rebounds and one assist in 24 minutes per game this season. He has started 26 of
46 games and is shooting 38 per cent from the floor, including 31 per cent from
3-point range. Its the third move for the Kings since the season started as they
rebuild under new owner Vivek Ranadive, general manager Pete DAlessandro and
Malone. Sacramento sent Luc Mbah a Moute to Minnesota for Derrick Williams on
Nov. 26 and acquired Rudy Gay in a seven-play deal with Toronto on Dec. 9. "Were
an unfinished product," DAlessandro said before the Kings hosted Golden State on
Wednesday night. "Were just going to continue to try to change and turn it over
and try to figure it out until we can get it right. I think change is good when
youve lost a lot. You have to change. You always have to change." One of the
biggest reasons the Kings made the trade is to give more playing time to
McLemore and fellow rookie Ray McCallum. McLemore, the seventh overall pick out
of Kansas, made his 27th start Wednesday night. "We have to see these guys play,
and not in practice but in NBA games to see what theyre capable of doing so we
can make decisions coming in the off-season," Malone said. The Kings, under the
former ownership of the Maloof family, signed Thornton to a four-year contract
worth about $31 million just before the lockout-shortened 2011-12 season.
Thornton is making $8.05 million this season and is due $8.575 million next
season. Hell bring some youth to a Nets team that loaded up on veterans in an
expensive attempt to make a run at a title this season. But they came out of the
All-Star break with a 24-27 record, good for only seventh place in the Eastern
Conference. They could still make another move before Thursdays 3 p.m. EST trade
deadline, even though they were already slated to pay more than $180 million in
salary and taxes this season.

. Chris Johnson is ready to help the Titans snap a three-game losing streak if
Tennessee and its new offensive co-ordinator can get him the ball more often.
"If the running game gets going, I can make plays in the running game and I
think we can win these last three games," Johnson said.

YORK – Make it two in a row for the Blue Jays at Yankee Stadium following
Sundays grind-it-out, 5-4 victory, a monumental accomplishment when contrasted
with the 17-game losing skid that ended with Saturdays win in the Bronx.
Suddenly, after six weeks of bad baseball compounded by a rash of injuries to
vital cogs like Brett Lawrie, Edwin Encarnacion and Adam Lind, the Blue Jays
(56-50) are 7-3 out of the All-Star Break and have crucial series wins over the
Red Sox (three out of four) and the Yankees (two out of three). The Blue Jays
will travel by train to Boston on Sunday evening in preparation for a three-game
series with the Red Sox. Regardless of the result of the Orioles-Mariners game
in Seattle, the Blue Jays will wake up on Monday morning in sole possession of
second place in the American League East and, perhaps more importantly, in sole
possession of the lead for the American Leagues coveted second wild card spot.
It wasnt pretty at times. The Jays blew leads of 2-0, 3-2 and 4-3 on Sunday but
in a test-of-the-mettle type of game, the club went ahead for good when
Dioner Navarro singled home Jose Bautista with two outs in the ninth. That the
base hit came off Yankees closer David Robertson and combined with the fact that
Bautista had stolen second to get into scoring position, it seemed a solid way
to cap a solid weekend. Bautista wants his team to believe its good. "We need to
sometimes have that swagger and that attitude that we are a good team," said
Bautista. "At times when we lose a couple in a row, it seems like we lose it a
little bit, lose that edge. Im not saying we dont compete, we dont show up on
time and do our work and do our preparation. Were great about that but at times
you can see it on the field and in the clubhouse, if we lose a couple in a row
and theyre tough games, its like the energy goes down a little bit." Sanchez
wins his first game Rookie Aaron Sanchez picked up his first career major league
victory in Sundays win. He wasnt entirely satisfied. "Maybe not so much the way
I would have liked it to have," said Sanchez of the way the win played out. "We
score a run there in the eighth and I go back out there and for me, I need to do
a better job of shutting that inning down so they dont have to fight for another
one but those guys picked me up and its such an awesome feeling right now to get
my first win, especially here in Yankee Stadium." Sanchez pitched a three-up,
three-down seventh on three groundballs to preserve a 3-3 tie. After
Colby Rasmus drew a walk and advanced two bases on a pickoff attempt throwing
error by Yankees reliever Dellin Betances, Munenori Kawasakis sacrifice fly
scored Rasmus to give Toronto a 4-3 lead in the eighth. Sanchez gave up a
leadoff single to Brett Gardner in the eighth. Gardner advanced to second on a
Derek Jeter sacrifice bunt and scored on a two-out single by Carlos Beltran. The
game was tied 4-4. Sanchez was still the pitcher of record when the Blue Jays
went ahead in the ninth. Casey Janssen worked a clean inning for his 16th save.
Reimold returns One day after revealing publicly that Edwin Encarnacion isnt
close to returningg to the lineup due to a right quadriceps strain, the Blue
Jays trimmed their bloated infirmary by one in welcoming back outfielder
Nolan Reimold.
Authentic Keanu Neal Jersey. Pitcher
Esmil Rogers was designated for assignment to make room for Reimold on the
active roster. "To get another position player up here," said manager John
Gibbons, explaining the move. "Another right-handed bat instead of having eight
bullpen guys." Reimold arrived at Yankee Stadium about two hours before Sundays
game and wasnt in the starting lineup. Coming off a left calf strain suffered
while running the bases in the July 11 game at Tampa Bay, Reimold wont be in the
outfield for at least "a couple of days," according to Gibbons. He was available
to pinch hit and will be used as a designated hitter. Expect to see him in
Wednesdays starting lineup when the Jays face Red Sox ace lefthander Jon Lester.
"Hes a good pitcher so itll be good to get back in there and compete again,"
said Reimold. Reimold was just getting settled with his new team when he was
bitten by the injury bug. Its been a consistent theme throughout the
30-year-olds career. Hes had two major neck surgeries, spinal fusion. The second
procedure was required to correct the first, which didnt take. The calf strain
happened as he was running to third on a base hit. Hed never had a problem in
that area before. "Its very frustrating," said Reimold. "But its behind me now.
No issues; you know, get back at it again and start over." In four games with
the Jays, his first big league games of the season after being picked up on
waivers from the Orioles, Reimold showed flashes of the player the Blue Jays
believe he can be. He had two hits, including a double, and three RBI in an 8-7
loss to the Angels in Anaheim. Rogers, who turns 29 on August 14, will be
exposed to irrevocable waivers for the second time this season. While its likely
he clears and is assigned, once again, to Triple-A Buffalo, the Blue Jays would
be content for another team to take a flier on Rogers and pick up the remainder
of his $1.85-million salary. Rogers played a significant role in Toronto last
season, making 44 appearances, including 20 starts to cover for an
injury-depleted rotation. He was initially shipped out in mid-May, following a
series at Fenway Park. At the time, he led the entire staff with five home runs
allowed. His regression isnt a story exclusive to Rogers. The Jays relief corps
also has been burdened by down seasons from two 2013 All-Stars, Steve Delabar
(now pitching for Buffalo) and Brett Cecil. What makes the Rogers situation hurt
more is what general manager Alex Anthopoulos gave up to get him. Catcher
Yan Gomes is a regular in Cleveland and Mike Aviles is a serviceable utility
infielder. For the cash-strapped Blue Jays, Rogers salary is burdensome with
ownership apparently unwilling to take on money in a midseason trade. Theres no
timeline for Encarnacions return to the lineup after he suffered a setback in
his rehabilitation from a right quadriceps strain, an injury sustained on July
5. In Encarnacions absence, Reimolds potentially potent righthanded bat will be
a welcome addition to Gibbons lineup.

HALLE, Germany -- Rafael Nadal pulled out of the Gerry Weber Open on Saturday to
rest ahead of Wimbledon.
Richard Sherman Black Jersey . Nadal said the
grueling physical demands of recent weeks, including the French Open, led to his
decision to withdraw from the grass-court event. The 11-time Grand Slam winner
plays fellow Spaniard David Ferrer in Sundays French Open final, after coming
through a ferocious five-set encounter with top-ranked Novak Djokovic in Fridays
semifinal. "After these past months and all the matches I have been able to play
my doctors have recommended to rest after Roland Garros," said Nadal, whose
place will be taken by wildcard Mischa Zverev of Germany. Nadals withdrawal
leaves Roger Federer as the favourite to win his sixth title at the Halle
tournament, which begins Monday. Nadal said he would begin grass-court
preparations a few days after his eighth French Open final. "We all know the
transition is not easy and after these past months I have to approach this in a
different way," the 27-year-old Nadal said. Nadal played in Halle last year
despite suffering knee problems. He was knocked out in the last-16 by beaten
finalist Philipp Kohlschreiber and was eventually forced to take a long injury
lay-off after Wimbledon. "It is a shame and regrettable that Rafael cannot come,
but I can understand his decision," said tournament director Ralf Weber. "I know
that it was not an easy one to take, but the players health comes first."

most improbable finishes in the NCAA tournaments long bracket-busting history.
Got Jacks? Pulling off a comeback for the ages, feisty Stephen F. Austin became
the latest No. 12 seed to pull off an upset, tying the game on Desmond Haymons
did-that-just-happen four-point play with 3.6 seconds left, and then holding on
in overtime for a 77-75 win over Virginia Commonwealth on Friday night. "Well,
miracles truly do happen," SFA coach Brad Underwood said. Pretty regularly these
days. Its been a wild ride in the NCAA tournament already, a two-day run filled
with upsets, buzzer-beaters and millions of crumpled brackets across the
country. SFAs victory marked the fifth overtime game during the round of 64, a
tournament record. SFA didnt have the biggest upset of the opening two rounds --
Mercer probably gets the nod there with its win over Duke -- but the Lumberjacks
certainly had the most jaw-dropping finish. Heres how it went down: The South
Regions No. 5 seed, VCU (23-10) was firmly in control after its swarming defence
flustered SFA during a big second-half run. The scrappy Lumberjacks (32-2) kept
hanging around and clawed their way back in the closing seconds. Two missed free
throws by VCUs Jordan Burgess with 10 seconds left gave SFA a chance. The
Lumberjacks worked the ball around to the wing, where Haymon launched a
3-pointer and was fouled by JeQuan Lewis just before the ball fell through the
basket. "I just tried to get out and contest it," Lewis said. "(I) jumped to the
side a little bit and kind of fell into him. The ref called a foul." Haymon
still had some work to do, though. The crowd still buzzing, VCU coach Shaka
Smart called a timeout, trying to ice Haymon. The senior didnt seem to mind,
returning to the court to calmly knock the free throw down. "I was struggling
shooting the ball and I knew to get it going, I was going to have to continue to
try to find it (his touch)," Haymon said. "I guess I found that groove with the
last shot." The tension still wasnt over. Following a missed desperation heave
at the end of regulation, Haymon put the Jacks ahead in overtime on a 3-pointer
with 2 minutes left. VCUs turn at glory came after SFAs Thomas Walkup made 1 of
2 free throws put the Lumberjacks up 2 with 14 seconds left. The Rams got a good
look on the final possession, working the ball around to Lewis for an openn
3-pointer on the wing.
Chaussures Nike Air Max 90 Femme. His shot
went long, the Lumberjacks grabbed the rebound, then stormed the floor after
improbably extending the nations second-longest winning streak to 29 games.
Jacob Parker scored 22 points and Haymon had 17 for SFA, which moves into
Sundays third-round game against the Tulsa-UCLA winner. Treveon Graham had 19
points, Burgess 14 and Lewis finished with 13 for the disappointed Rams, the
third No. 5 seed to lose this tournament. "Honestly, I thought we had it,"
Burgess said. "We had them on the ropes, but they came back and made some tough
shots and important shots to win the game." Every year, the NCAA tournament has
a feel-good team fans lock onto, like Florida Gulf Coast and Dunk City last
year. SFA certainly had qualifications to be this years darling: A fun-loving
group of players led by a long-haired shooter they call Sunshine, a frenetic
style -- at least when it comes to half-court defence -- and the nations
second-longest winning streak at 29. But for Lumberjacks to become the latest
lovable lower seed, they had to get past VCU, a team that had been-there,
done-that with the whole underdog thing. The Rams had a magical run of their
own, reaching the 2011 Final Four, and have been consistent winners since,
reaching the NCAA tournament four straight years. Oh, yeah, VCU has that
defence, too. Its called Havoc and it has created more turnovers and steals than
any other team in the country the past two seasons. SFA plays a little D of its
own -- more of the half-court variety than the Rams -- so naturally tipped
passes, floor burns and scraps for loose balls filled the arena when they met on
the court for the first time. The Lumberjacks picked their way through the havoc
with pinpoint passing on backdoor cuts and the interior, taking a six-point lead
into halftime on Parkers last-second 3-pointer. VCU made the game more chaotic
-- Havotic? -- with its pressure to start the second half and started working
the ball inside, racing through an 11-0 run to go up 52-43. The Rams stayed in
control most of the half, but missed four free throws in the final 32 seconds to
give the Lumberjacks a shot at victory. "I like the way we battled the majority
of the second half, but we just didnt finish the game," Smart said. "We kind of
gave them a glimmer of hope." The Jacks ran with it, earning their spot in NCAA
tournament history with one improbable shot.

DALLAS -- Monta Ellis scored 22 points and the Dallas Mavericks matched a season
high with their fourth consecutive victory, 103-81 over the last-place Utah Jazz
on Friday night.
http://www.baseballbravesshop.com/phil-niekro-braves-jersey/
. All-Star forward Dirk Nowitzki had 20 points while playing only 26 1/2 minutes
for the Mavericks, who moved a season-best nine games over. 500 at 30-21. It is
only the second time they have been that far above the break-even mark since
their 2010-11 NBA championship season. Even with Utah at full strength, putting
its best lineup on the floor and Marvin Williams making four 3-pointers in the
games first 6 minutes, the Jazz lost their fourth game in a row. Jazz starting
centre Derrick Favors was back after missing three games with an inflamed right
hip and reserve forward Jeremy Evans had missed two games with a bruised
tailbone and bruised right elbow. Utah has lost all six games Favors didnt start
this season. Dallas only other four-game winning streak this season came in
November, one capped by a 103-93 home win over the Jazz. The Mavericks play
their last three games before the All-Star break on the road, then host Miami on
Feb. 18 before three more games away from home. Williams finished with 21 points
while matching his career high with five 3-pointers. Trey Burke had 13 points
and Richard Jefferson 10. Jose Calderon and Samuel Dalembert each had 12 points
for the Mavs. Utah jumped out to a 21-14 lead in the first 6 minutes on the
strength of Williams long-range shots. He already had 14 points by then. With
Nowitzki getting a breather, the Mavericks then scored 11 in a row as part of a
14-2 quarter-ending run to take the lead for good. Ellis made it 21-all with a
20-foot jumper, and the tiebreaker came on Brandan Wrights dunk with 3 minutes
left in the first quarter. After starting the game by making eight of 10 shots
with five 3s, the Jazz missed seven shots in a row during that scoreless drought
of more than 4 minutes. It was also during that stretch when Williams missed his
first two shots -- both on the same play, when he missed a layup and the
follow-up tip try. John Lucas III made a 19-foot jumper and a 3-pointer on
consecutive possessions to get the Jazz within 35-34 with 7 1/2 minutes left in
the first half. They never got closer as Dallas went on a 17-3 run, including
another spurt off 11 in a row during which Williams missed a slam dunk. NOTES:
The Jazz are 13-9 with the starting five of Jefferson, Williams, Favors,
Gordon Hayward and rookie Burke. They are 3-24 with seven other starting
combinations. ... The halftime entertainment was the Texas Southern University
band, with full drum line and loud horns. ... After Ellis and Burke traded
3-pointers midway through the third quarter, Ellis then made a 22-footer and fed
Shawn Marion for a dunk that made it 69-57. ... Wright had another dunk, a
one-hander on an alley-oop pass from Vince Carter late in the third quarter. ...
The season series will end with two games in Utah, on March 12 and April 8.

recorded his fourth career triple-double, and second as a member of the Raptors,
he was back in the locker room glued to his phone, streaming the Knicks game. At
the time, Carmelo Anthony was at the tail end of a career and Knicks
franchise-record setting performance in New York. Melo had 60 points and
counting, as Lowry watched in amazement. "They just took him out," he told an
enquiring DeMar DeRozan, putting down his phone to speak with the media
following his own remarkable showing. No, Lowry didnt score 62 points - Anthonys
final point total - but he too was coming off a game hell remember for the rest
of his professional career, and beyond. "Its always special to play here," said
the Philadelphia-native, who put up 18 points, 10 rebounds and 13 assists in
front of over 50 friends and family members in Torontos 104-95 victory over the
76ers. And his triple-double? "As long as its with a win, its a great feat." The
win didnt come easy. Toronto got off to a quick start before coughing up an
early 13-point lead to the last place 76ers. The Raptors trailed by one at the
break and exchanged buckets with a tenacious Philadelphia team during the third
quarter. Down one with a minute remaining in the third, Lowry drained a short
jumper to give his team the lead, adding a step-back 18-footer prior to the
buzzer. Half of section 123 - five or six rows of Lowry supporters - was on
their feet as the quarter came to an end. The Raptors never relinquished their
lead from there. "Always, coming here and winning the game is most important,"
said the Raptors point guard. "Even if I play terrible, if we win the game and I
give my family something to cheer for Im happy." How big was his own personal
cheering section? "50-something [people], a small amount," he said with a smirk.
Following Friday morning shoot around, Lowry - having spent the previous night
back at home - spoke about staying professional and blocking out the natural
distraction of being in a familiar setting. He got his ticket requests in
Thursday evening and by 5:00, two hours before tip-off, he insisted his phone
would be turned off. "Its always special to be able to haave them sit behind you
and cheer for you and cheer for the team," he said.
Julio Teheran Jersey. "Its definitely
different but Im still a professional, Ive got to do my job, Ive got to help my
team win." 48 hours earlier, Lowry missed all 10 of his field goal attempts as
he batted the flu, running back-and-forth from the restroom in Wednesdays
victory over Dallas. DeRozan picked up the slack for his ailing comrade, scoring
a career-best 40 points. Theyve become something of a tag team. On Friday, with
Lowry back to full health after some home cooking, both guards were tremendous.
"Thats what he do, man," said DeRozan, who had 34 points of his own, including
16 in the fourth and 13 from the free throw line. "He puts us all in great
positions to score. He rebounds, he pushes the ball, he does it all when hes out
there on the court. You cant ask for another point guard like that who can do
all those things." Lowry and DeRozan, are both awaiting their All-Star fate. The
leagues coaches will vote in the reserves - they have until the weekend to
submit their ballots - and Torontos backcourt duo is making one final, eye
catching push. "Hes an All-Star," DeRozan said of Lowry. "Hes an All-Star,"
Lowry said of DeRozan. "Theyre both All-Stars," said Amir Johnson. Theyll find
out on Thursday, but for now theyre both relieved to be winning once again.
After dropping three of four last week the Raptors have been victorious in two
straight ahead of a daunting matchup with the Clippers in the second night of a
back-to-back Saturday and a crucial showdown with the suddenly red-hot, division
rival Nets Monday. "I dont think we ever lost it," DeRozan said with confidence.
"We understand we cant win every game. There are going to be games we wish we
should have win but it might just not be our night. We understand that. We just
have to stay positive when we lose a game, understand we have to learn from our
mistakes and keep going." Meanwhile, DeRozan - making his All-Star bid - has
scored 74 points in two games, shooting 11-for-16 in the fourth quarter during
that stretch. Not bad right? "Melo had 62 [tonight]," he said. "I really didnt
do too much."
