In the end, it was the Splash duo of Thompson and Curry in a shootout. "Oh for sure (I feel nostalgic), especially when you get into the Air Canada Centre and it's the same staff that used to work there in 2002 when my dad retired, same ushers, crew in the background, so a lot of familiar faces", Curry said.

There might be bigger names out there, but there can't be better dunkers.

The team had lost five games in a row and nine of 10 to fall well back in the Eastern Conference playoff race. Just 1 1/2 season later, Jackson decided he needed someone else. It was encouraging to see Rambis cut his rotation, but there are still plenty of questions to be asked about it. Against a team as explosive as the Wizards are, why did Grant and Kyle O'Quinn both get DNP-Coach's Decision and Lance Thomas play only 11 minutes? "We're looking to improve this ballclub, there's no ...

The NHL allowed fans to vote for the captain of each of four division teams as it switches to a 3-on-3 tournament for this year's game. "Me, as an old guy I'm not going to do anything", he said.

IBF welterweight champion Brook (35-0-KO24) represents a far more unsafe fight for Khan (31-3-KO19), claims divisional contender Thurman, which explains why he has chosen a different path.

Number two, it's going to have the ability to field better, more competitive race teams. Much attention will be placed on Gordon's replacement, Chase Elliott, son of NASCAR Hall of Famer Bill. Brian Vickers is expected to be named as the fill-in Friday. The addition of Gordon to the booth should be good for the Fox coverage as well. _Did you forget Junior? During his 2010 absence, he underwent a pair of procedures, one to close a hole in his heart and another to insert a stent into a ...
