NFL TAMPA, Fla. (AP) - Tom Brady threw a pair of touchdown passes in the final three minutes, helping the Tampa Bay Buccaneers rally from a 13-point deficit to beat the New Orleans Saints 17-16 and tighten their grip on first place in the weak NFC South. The seven-time Super Bowl champion tossed a one-yard TD pass to rookie Cade Otton, finishing a 91-yard drive to pull within 16-10 with exactly three minutes remaining. He got the ball back with 2:29 to go, then won it with a 6-yard throw to another rookie, Rachaad White, with 3 seconds left. Andy Dalton threw for 225 yards and a touchdown without an interception for New Orleans, but the Saints ultimately paid for having to settle for three field goals by Wil Lutz on drives deep into Bucs territory. The Bucs (6-6) extended their division lead over the Atlanta Falcons to 1 1/2 games. The last-place Saints (4-9) missed out on opportunity to pull into a tie for second with the Falcons. None of the four teams in the NFC South has a winning record. Brady, who before the game exchanged greetings with the biggest prize on this winter´s baseball free agent market AL MVP Aaron Judge, finished 36 of 54 for 281 yards and two touchdowns. OWING MILLS, Md. (AP) - Baltimore Ravens coach John Harbaugh sounded doubtful about Lamar Jackson´s availability for this weekend´s game at Pittsburgh. Jackson left Sunday´s 10-9 win over Denver with a knee injury. Harbaugh said after the game that it was not a season-ending type of injury. On Monday, he provided an update, saying Jackson was "kind of week to week." Jackson left the game after taking a sack on the final play of the first quarter. This is around the same point in the season when he injured his ankle last year. He wasn´t able to return from that, and Baltimore´s late-season slide left the team out of the playoffs. Backup Tyler Huntley threw for 187 yards with an interception. He led a 91-yard drive late in the fourth quarter for the game´s only touchdown. CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) - The short-lived Baker Mayfield era is over in Carolina. The Panthers waived the struggling quarterback after the 2018 No. 1 draft pick asked for his release. Mayfield would be subject to waivers and become a free agent if he goes unclaimed. The move does not come as a surprise, because Sam Darnold replaced Mayfield after his failed second stint as starting quarterback, and the Panthers like what they have in backup P.J. Walker. The move gives Mayfield a chance to potentially land with a team that needs quarterback help. San Francisco´s Jimmy Garoppolo, Jacksonville´s Trevor Lawrence and Baltimore´s Lamar Jackson all suffered injuries over the weekend. Panthers interim coach Steve Wilks said Mayfield asked for his release once he informed the quarterbacks that Darnold would be the team´s starter and Walker would be the backup this Sunday at Seattle. BASEBALL SAN DIEGO (AP) - The Philadelphia Phillies landed Trea Turner, agreeing to a $300 million, 11-year contract with the dynamic shortstop. The deal includes a no-trade clause, according to a person familiar with the negotiations who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because there was no immediate announcement. Turner joins a Philadelphia team that made it to the World Series this year before losing to the Houston Astros. He also reunites with slugger Bryce Harper after the two played together with the Washington Nationals from 2015-18. Turner was terrific in his first full season with the Los Angeles Dodgers, batting .298 with 21 homers and a career-high 100 RBIs for the 2022 NL West champions. He also swiped 27 bases and scored 101 runs. SAN DIEGO (AP) - Justin Verlander agreed to an $86.7 million, two-year contract with the New York Mets, reuniting the AL Cy Young Award winner with Max Scherzer and giving the team a high-profile replacement for Jacob deGrom. The contract is worth $43,333,333 per season and includes a vesting player option for 2025 at $35 million, according to a person familiar with the negotiations who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because there was no immediate announcement. Verlander, who turns 40 in February, leaves World Series champion Houston to step in for deGrom, [https://pinfaves.com/kyrie-irving-weight-loss/ https://pinfaves.com/kyrie-irving-weight-loss/] who left New York after nine seasons when he agreed to a $185 million, five-year contract with Texas last week. It also puts Verlander on the same team as Scherzer after they played together with the Detroit Tigers from 2010-14. Depending on the final details, it appears Verlander´s deal matches Scherzer´s for baseball´s record for highest average annual salary. Scherzer finalized a $130 million, three-year deal with New York a year ago. LOS ANGELES (AP) - Clayton Kershaw needed only a few days to make up his mind to return to the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2023. After the Dodgers had an MLB-leading 111 victories during the regular season only to get ousted by the San Diego Padres in the NL Division Series, the star pitcher returned to his offseason home outside Dallas. He and his wife, Ellen, talked things over and the Dodgers won out again. Kershaw re-signed for one year at $20 million with the NL West champions. The deal includes a $5 million signing bonus payable on June 30, a salary of $15 million and a hotel suite on road trips. For the second straight year, the Dodgers didn´t extend a qualifying offer to the three-time Cy Young Award winner. Instead, they gave him additional time to mull his future, and he once again decided to stay with the only franchise he´s ever played for during his 15-year major league career. SAN DIEGO (AP) - Brian Cashman is staying with the New York Yankees, signing a four-year contract to remain the team´s senior vice president and general manager. Cashman, New York´s GM since 1998, had been working on a handshake agreement with Yankees owner Hal Steinbrenner since early November, when his five-year contract expired. The Yankees were swept by four games in the AL Championship Series and haven´t reached the World Series since winning in 2009. It is the franchise´s longest title drought since an 18-year gap between 1978-96. Cashman´s main goal during the offseason is trying to re-sign AL MVP Aaron Judge. Judge hit an American League-record 62 homers this season with a .311 batting average and 131 RBIs. He turned down the Yankees´ offer on the eve of opening day of a seven-year contract that would have paid $213.5 million from 2023-29. While Judge remains on the market, Cashman was able to re-sign Anthony Rizzo on Nov. 15 to a two-year contract worth $40 million after turning down a $16 million player option. COLLEGE FOOTBALL Quarterbacks Stetson Bennett of Georgia, Max Duggan of TCU, C.J. Stroud of Ohio State and Caleb Williams of Southern California were announced as finalists for the Heisman Trophy. The award given to the outstanding player in college football, determined by a vote of more than 900 sports journalists and past winners, will be presented Saturday at the Lincoln Center in New York. Conspicuously absent from the list of finalists is Tennessee quarterback Hendon Hooker, who was the leader of the nation´s No. 1 offense before his season ended Nov. 19 because of a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee. Bennett had been a bit under the radar as a Heisman candidate and perhaps a mild surprise to be one of the top four vote-getters for no reason other than that his statistics don´t jump off the page. NBA Kyrie Irving´s relationship with Nike is officially over, the shoe and athletic apparel maker said, a move that came a month after the company suspended the Brooklyn guard as part of the fallout over his tweeting a link to a film containing antisemitic material. It was not a surprise breakup, especially after Nike co-founder Phil Knight said in the days after the company suspended Irving that he had doubts there would be any reconciliation. Irving´s agent and stepmother, Shetellia Riley Irving, told The New York Times that the sides "mutually decided to part ways and we just wish Nike all the best." Irving, without mentioning Nike by name, appeared to address the matter on his Twitter account Monday afternoon. adverts.addToArray({"pos":"inread_player"})Advertisement

US Jews Battle New apos;mainstreamed apos; Anti-Semitism

2022-12-22T21:47:07Z

Ginger2799:

President Donald Trump meets with rapper Kanye West in the White House Oval Office in 2018 President Joe Biden's emphatic condemnation of anti-Semitism Friday was driven by an alarming normalization of anti-Jewish tropes and hate speech by influential public figures and on social media, experts said. One day after hip-hop and fashion mogul Kanye West voiced a "love" for Nazis and 10 days after ex-president Donald Trump dined with West and white supremacist Nick Fuentes, Biden blasted a message about open anti-Semitism on Twitter. "Silence is complicity," Biden said. "The Holocaust happened. Hitler was a demonic figure. And instead of giving it a platform, our political leaders should be calling out and rejecting anti-Semitism wherever it hides." Experts said the most recent controversies underscore a difficult new-generation fight against bigoted memes and conspiracy theories about Jews entering the mainstream. Some of the new anti-Semitism has been propelled through Trump's MAGA movement and the parallel QAnon conspiracy community. Some has also been advanced through youth and African American communities by influential celebrities like West and basketball star Kyrie Irving, boosted by largely uncensored social media platforms. West capped weeks of stoking anti-Semitic fires on Thursday when, in a podcast joined by Fuentes and extremist Alex Jones, he praised Hitler and then posted online a Nazi swastika interlaced with a Star of David. - Trump factor - The Tree Of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where an anti-Semitic extremist killed 11 people on in 2018 Oren Segal of ADL, which fights anti-Semitism, said the trend has been building for some time, with more people, intentionally or unintentionally, spreading anti-Semitic ideas. "When you have celebrities who are promoting classic anti-Semitism like Kanye West, who has more followers on Twitter than there are Jews on the planet Earth, that is going to make that part of the public discussion," Segal told AFP. Aside from Trump dining with West and Fuentes, Segal noted, several Republican elected officials readily attended a pro-Trump conference organized by Fuentes earlier this year. "That normalisation is not something that just began when Kanye lost his mind. It's something that we have seen in the public, frankly, for a long time," Segal. Trumpism is an important factor, he added. "If Trumpism is understood as normalising disinformation and conspiracy theories, the normalisation of anti-Semitism is not far behind," he said. That has real consequences, he said, pointing to the deadly extremist attacks on synagogues in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and Poway, California in 2018 and 2019. - Fringe ideas hit the mainstream - The fact that West and Irving are both Black raised concerns about a surge of anti-Semitism among African Americans and young minorities. But Cheryl Greenberg, a professor at Trinity College, said they reflected general trends in their communities. "What I think it is, is the trend of mainstreaming otherwise fringe ideas." For example, she said, Irving highlighted an old video by the Black Hebrew Israelites, who are critical of Jews. "They've been preaching the same stuff for decades," Greenberg said. "What's unusual, I think, or what's new, is that they've managed to move from New York street corners and elsewhere into the mainstream." A big reason for that is social media, which makes it easier to preserve and share anything, [https://pinfaves.com/kyrie-irving-weight-loss/ https://pinfaves.com/kyrie-irving-weight-loss/] including hate. Elon Musk's haphazard takeover of Twitter showed how fast objectionable material of any kind -- against Jews or others -- can return if a platform is not extremely diligent. Segal said bigger problems are the "ecosystem" of algorithm-based video hosts like TikTok and mostly uncensored messaging and discussion boards like Telegram and Reddit, where virtual, global communities are built around anti-Semitism. "It's just a toxic online environment, where the most vulnerable people are getting their worldview, where I think we're starting to see the consequences," said Segal. - Alliances unraveled - Greenberg said another problem is that anti-Semitism's importance has dissipated among younger Americans who are less knowledgeable about the Holocaust and are focused on the issues of other marginalized or oppressed groups, whether ethnic minorities or LGBTQ. "The ways the Jews have made anti-Semitism a primary issue has made it much more difficult to engage with the many groups," said Greenberg. She said the 1950-60s alliance between African Americans and Jews for civil rights has mostly unraveled. A younger generation of Blacks and other minorities today don't see Jews as "fellow sufferers," in part because they consider Jews as successful whites, Greenberg said. "There are many groups out there, it is not just about Jews, it's about lots of people," she said. Greenberg said the only answer is to work more closely with other groups -- even those critical of Israel -- to keep the issue of anti-Semitism in the mix. "It's never-ending because as soon as people forget, we fall off the radar," she said. adverts.addToArray({"pos":"inread_player"})Advertisement

quarterback Dak Prescott has weighed in on a picture shared last week of owner Jerry Jones attending a desegregation protest in 1957, saying 'we can be more empathetic and give grace to one another, regardless of race.' The 29-year-old's comments come after Lakers star Lebron James around the photograph, accusing media outlets of a racist double standard after the Lakers' 128-109 win over the Trail Blazers. In the 65-year-old picture, Jones, who was 14 at the time, is seen among white students at ' North Little Rock High as they blocked six African American teens from entering and integrating the school. Jones has acknowledged to the Washington Post that it is, indeed, him in the photograph, although he claims he was there out of curiosity and not any racist intent. 'Obviously we can be more empathetic and give grace to one another, regardless of race, from the times we've come from to where we are now, thinking about the growth we've had,' Prescott told Jori Epstein of Yahoo Sports. 'That's who I am, how I think, optimistic, I mean, a guy who is completely biracial, Black and white, it's easy for me to speak on race on one side or another.' 'And I don't always, how do I say this? I don't know if I've fully processed it all the way, honestly. I think whether LeBron's talking to the picture, that's on Jerry to address. In the same sense, it's 65 years ago and how times have changed. I mean look at the man's resume since then, right? As I said, I give grace.' 'I think that's a conversation and question not only for him but for you guys and how y'all feel and how accountable y'all have been in covering and discussing the disparities and differences in resume.' Cowboys owner Jerry Jones was pictured among a crowd of white students blocking the doors of North Little Rock High School, denying access to six African American students enrolled in the school in 1957. The billionaire and NFL owner, who was 14 years old at the time, said of the photograph: 'I didn't know at the time the monumental event that was going on' and that he was just being a 'curious kid' Jones has confirmed that it is, indeed, him in the controversial photograph, although he denies having any racist intent at the time Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott said 'we can be more empathetic and give grace to one another' in reaction to the 65-year-old picture of Jones RELATED ARTICLES Share this article Share 52 shares Prescott then stressed that he's 'here for growth and giving grace and trying to make this world a better place.' 'That's who I am at my core and what I believe in,' he added. 'Unfortunately, things come up from the past, pictures, and they show how far we've come, but at the same sense, they're a reminder of how short of a time that was ago. That wasn't that long ago that we were all sitting on different sides, and we weren't together. But as I said, I wouldn't be here if it were still that way. So, [https://pinfaves.com/kyrie-irving-weight-loss/ pinfaves.com] I believe in grace and change. Those are questions for Jerry for you all, honestly, that I don't have quite the answers for.' James inquired why he hadn't been asked about Jones, despite fielding questions for much of November about Nets star and former teammate Kyrie Irving being accused of antisemitism after to the 2018 film 'H Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James asked reporters why he hadn't been asked about Jones at a press conference on Wednesday night , despite fielding questions for much of November about Nets star and former teammate Kyrie Irving being accused of antisemitism Irving found himself in hot water after promoting the 2018 film 'Hebrews to Negroes: Wake Up Black America' on social media with a link to its Amazon page The Nets point guard returned to basketball action on November 20th after the NBA handed him an eight-game suspension for his refusal to apologize for his actions and for failure to disavow antisemitism The movie is based on a 2015 book by the same title, which Rolling Stone described as 'venomously anti-Semitic.' Specifically, it quotes Hitler to convince the audience about the existence of a Jewish plan for world domination. The Nets star has recently returned to basketball action following after apologizing and meeting several other requirements put forth by the team, including a request to meet with Jewish leaders. Irving and James won an NBA ring together in 2016. 'I got one question for you guys before you guys leave,' James told reporters. 'I was thinking when I was on my way over here, I was wondering why I haven't gotten a question from you guys about the Jerry Jones photo. But when the Kyrie [Irving] thing was going on, you guys were quick to ask us questions about that.' The desegregation demonstration that Jones is seen attending at North Little Rock High in 1957 happened shortly after nine teens, famously known as the Little Rock Nine, became the first African American students to be enrolled in Little Rock's Central High School. North Little Rock High School, where Jones was pictured as a student in 1957, didn't include children from minority backgrounds in its classes until 1964 The Little Rock Crisis soon followed, preventing the students from being enrolled in the racially segregated school by Orval Faubus, then-Governor of Arkansas. Then-President Dwight D. Eisenhower had to intervene to confirm the nine children's enrollment. North Little Rock, where Jones was enrolled, didn't integrate children from minority backgrounds until 1964. 'That was, gosh, 65 years ago, and curious kid, I didn't know at the time the monumental event that was going on,' Jones said last week of the controversy around the 1967 picture. 'I'm sure glad that we're a long way from that. I am. That would remind me: just continue to do everything we can to not have those kinds of things happen.'

A recently surfaced photo showing owner Jerry Jones as a 14-year-old during a civil rights clash at his Little Rock high school in 1957 has led Lakers star to accuse media of a racist double standard. Speaking after the Lakers' 128-109 win over the Trail Blazers on Wednesday night, James inquired why he hasn't been asked about Jones, despite fielding questions for much of November about an African-American former teammate, Kyrie Irving, . 'I got one question for you guys before you guys leave,' James said to reporters.

Moments later the African American students were shoved down a flight of stairs and onto the sidewalk, where city police broke up the altercation. CIRCLED: 14-year-old Jerry Jones The 80-year-old billionaire said he looked 'like a little burrhead' in the photo, which was taken amid a wave of civil rights clashes in the Little Rock area. As Jones explained to the Post, his football coach, Jim Albright, had warned players to avoid the widely anticipated scene on the first day of classes at North Little Rock High James, who won a title with Irving in Cleveland in 2016, fielded several questions about Irving (right) during the controversy, but was confused why he hasn't been asked about Jones (left) The Brooklyn Nets star caught the attention for publicizing the 2018 film 'Hebrews to Negroes: Wake Up Black America' on social media with a link to its Amazon page RELATED ARTICLES Share this article Share In the 65-year-old photo, Jones is seen among white students at Arkansas' North Little Rock High as they blocked six African-American teenagers from entering and integrating the school.

James, [https://pinfaves.com/kyrie-irving-weight-loss/ pinfaves.com] who won a title with Irving in Cleveland in 2016, fielded several questions about Irving during the controversy. 'Me personally, I don't condone any hate to any kind to any race,' James said when asked about Irving on November 5. 'To Jewish communities, to black communities, to Asian communities. You guys know where I stand. I believe what Kyrie did caused some harm to a lot of people. And he has since, over the last -- I think it was today, or yesterday -- he apologized. But he caused some harm, and I think it's unfortunate.' A policeman points to a youth as he stops a group of North Little Rock High School students singing Dixie songs at the school this morning. African American students who tried to enter the school yesterday stayed away on September 10, 1957 in North Little Rock On Wednesday, James suggested that the media was more critical of Irving than Jones. 'I feel like as a black man, as a black athlete, as someone with power and a platform, when we do something wrong, or something that people don't agree with, it's on every single tabloid, every single news coverage, it's on the bottom ticker,' James said Wednesday. 'It's asked about every single day. 'But it seems like to me that the whole Jerry Jones situation, photo -- and I know it was years and years ago and we all make mistakes, I get it -- but it seems like it's just been buried under, like, ''Oh, it happened. OK, we just move on.'' And I was just kind of disappointed that I haven't received that question from you guys.' Jones has been asked about the photo, describing himself to reporters as a curious onlooker who was not trying to prevent black students from entering his school. 'I didn't know at the time the monumental event really that was going on,' Jones said. 'I'm sure glad that we're a long way from that. I am. That would remind me [to] just continue to do everything we can to not have those kinds of things happen. Two black students - Richard Richardson, 17, and Harold Smith, 17 - are harassed in Little Rock in 1957 as they attempted to integrate Arkansas' North Little Rock High Despite growing up in Cleveland Browns country, Akron, Ohio, James was a Cowboys fan until recently, when Jones discouraged his players from kneeling during the national anthem in protest to racist police brutality. Jones told 'I had to sit out on the Cowboys, man,' James said recently when asked about his history with the team. 'There's just a lot of things that were going on when guys were kneeling. Guys were having freedom of speech and wanting to do it in a very peaceful manner. ... The organization was like, 'If you do that around here, then you will never play for this franchise again.' I just didn't think that was appropriate.' Jones did object to protests during the 2017 NFL season, when many African-American players took a knee to raise awareness of racist policing practices. He ultimately took a knee with his entire team in September of 2017 in a choreographed demonstration that took place while the national anthem wasn't playing. 'Our players wanted to make a statement about unity and we wanted to make a statement about equality,' Jones said at a postgame press conference in 2017. 'They were very much aware that statement, when made or when attempted to be made in and a part of the recognition of our flag, can not only lead to criticism but also controversy. 'It was real easy for everybody in our organization to see that the message of unity, the message of equality was getting, if you will, pushed aside or diminished by the controversy.' Jones did object to protests during the 2017 NFL season, when many African-American players took a knee to raise awareness of racist policing practices. He ultimately took a knee with his entire team in September of 2017 (pictured) in a choreographed demonstration that took place while the national anthem wasn't playing Jones has not disputed that it was him in the 1957 photo. The 80-year-old billionaire said he looked 'like a little burrhead' in the pic, which was taken amid a wave of civil rights clashes in the Little Rock area. More famously, President Dwight D. Eisenhower dispatched federal troops to Little Rock's Central High in September of 1957 to escort black students to class as they were harassed and spit at by racist, vitriolic protestors. As Jones explained to the Washington Post, his football coach, Jim Albright, had warned players to avoid the widely anticipated scene on the first day of classes at North Little Rock High. Jones disobeyed, but says he did so out of curiosity and not any racist animosity. 'I don't know that I or anybody anticipated or had a background of knowing … what was involved,' he said. 'It was more a curious thing.' But not everyone was standing at the North Little Rock High entrance out of curiosity. As one black student, Richard Lindsey, explained, a white student put his hand on the back of his neck while announcing to the crowd: 'I want to see how a n***** feels.' Jones is not pictured at the front of the pack, but rather behind a group of older-looking students. This view taken from the doors of North Little Rock High School, shows students rushing to stop six African-American boys from attempting to attend the first day of classes, September 9, 1957. The children had enrolled at the school earlier. At the door, white students blocked the entrance and were successful in turning back the black students. The flat-topped teenager was raised in the south in the heyday of the civil rights movement. But while his father was happy to serve black customers at the family's desegregated grocery store, Pat Jones ran for public office on a pro-segregationist platform. 'I stand for states' rights,' Pat said during his campaign for the Arkansas legislature, using a phrase that is a common euphemism for segregation. Jones' grandfather, a cotton farmer named Joe, was a member of the Arkansas branch of the White Citizens' Council. The future owner of the Cowboys would go on to play for an all-white football team at Arkansas, winning a national title in 1964 alongside Dallas' future head coach, Jimmy Johnson, who was also Jones' roommate. He would later hire another former Razorback, Oklahoma head coach Barry Switzer, to replace Johnson. Jones has not been very vocal about racial issues since buying the Cowboys in 1989 for $140 million - money he earned through oil and gas exploration. He has voiced objections to the NFL's Rooney rule, requiring teams to interview at least one outside minority candidate for top jobs, and he has never hired a black head coach or lead executive. (Jones keeps the GM title for himself, and his son, Steven, serves as the Cowboys' chief operating officer/executive vice president/director of player personnel) 'He has a history of being quite dismissive and arrogant towards players in bargaining, but I can't honestly say it's completely race-driven because I've seen it with the black players and white players,' one black player told the Post. 'He's sort of an equal opportunity condescender.' Fans sat courtside at Monday's Nets game wearing T-shirts reading 'Fight anti-Semitism' adverts.addToArray({"pos":"inread_player"})Advertisement

Nets Look To Rebound At Home Take On Hornets

Ginger2799:

The Brooklyn Nets were dreaming of a perfect homestand until their offense ran into the Boston Celtics. Now the Nets hold designs on finishing their season-high seven-game homestand with two more wins, starting with Wednesday's visit from the struggling Charlotte Hornets. The Nets won the first four games of their homestand with victories over the Portland Trail Blazers, Orlando Magic, Washington Wizards and Toronto Raptors to push their home winning streak to six games. On Sunday, however, Brooklyn took its first home loss since Nov. 1, in coach Jacque Vaughn's first game, by falling 103-92 to the Celtics. "We had plenty of opportunities in the first quarter," said Vaughn, who saw his team take an early nine-point lead and [https://pinfaves.com/kyrie-irving-weight-loss/ pinfaves.com] allow just 41 points in the second half. "A little bit of everything. But that team had 103 points and we didn't play our best." The Nets fell to 12-3 when allowing less than 110 points, mostly because their offense could not do enough against the NBA-best Celtics. Brooklyn dropped to 1-4 when being held under 100 points after shooting 40.5 percent, marking the team's third-poorest shooting performance of the season. Kevin Durant, who was named Eastern Conference player of the week, scored 31 points but also committed four of his eight turnovers in the fourth quarter when he faced frequent double teams. Durant also had little help at times. Kyrie Irving was held to 18 points and shot 7 of 21 (33.3 percent), marking his worst shooting performance since returning from his eight-game suspension on Nov. 20. The Nets played a third straight game without Ben Simmons, who tweaked his calf in the second quarter on Nov. 28. Simmons is expected to sit again Wednesday and would be replaced in the starting lineup by Joe Harris, who is shooting 53.8 percent (21 of 39) over his past four games Charlotte has lost three of four, with losses to Boston, the Milwaukee Bucks and Los Angeles Clippers while playing without LaMelo Ball (high ankle sprain) and Gordon Hayward (shoulder). On Monday, the Hornets took a 119-117 loss to the Clippers when they could not stop Kawhi Leonard on the final two possessions. The Hornets could not secure a defensive rebound as Leonard hit the tying putback with 39.7 seconds left and then hit the game-winning 18-footer with 1.4 seconds left. "It's just one rebound that decided the game," Charlotte forward Kelly Oubre Jr. said. "It's been the same story for a couple of nights. Just one rebound. We get this one rebound and we secure possession of the ball and the game is in our hands." Charlotte finished with a 49-47 rebounding margin but also allowed 25 second-chance points and 13 offensive boards. "The biggest possession of the game, the ball's right there," Charlotte coach Steve Clifford added. "That's the game. It's our biggest problem. The nights where we're physical, we're fine. The nights where we're not physical, it doesn't work." Oubre scored 28 points, marking the fifth straight time he scored at least 20. P.J. Washington added 26 after going 0 of 13 on Saturday against Milwaukee. --Field Level Media adverts.addToArray({"pos":"inread_player"})Advertisement

The Brooklyn Nets were dreaming of a perfect homestand until their offense ran into the Boston Celtics. Now the Nets hold designs on finishing their season-high seven-game homestand with two more wins, starting with Wednesday's visit from the struggling Charlotte Hornets. The Nets won the first four games of their homestand with victories over the Portland Trail Blazers, Orlando Magic, Washington Wizards and [https://pinfaves.com/kyrie-irving-weight-loss/ pinfaves.com] Toronto Raptors to push their home winning streak to six games. On Sunday, however, Brooklyn took its first home loss since Nov. 1, in coach Jacque Vaughn's first game, by falling 103-92 to the Celtics. "We had plenty of opportunities in the first quarter," said Vaughn, who saw his team take an early nine-point lead and allow just 41 points in the second half. "A little bit of everything. But that team had 103 points and we didn't play our best." The Nets fell to 12-3 when allowing less than 110 points, mostly because their offense could not do enough against the NBA-best Celtics. Brooklyn dropped to 1-4 when being held under 100 points after shooting 40.5 percent, marking the team's third-poorest shooting performance of the season. Kevin Durant, who was named Eastern Conference player of the week, scored 31 points but also committed four of his eight turnovers in the fourth quarter when he faced frequent double teams. Durant also had little help at times. Kyrie Irving was held to 18 points and shot 7 of 21 (33.3 percent), marking his worst shooting performance since returning from his eight-game suspension on Nov. 20. The Nets played a third straight game without Ben Simmons, who tweaked his calf in the second quarter on Nov. 28. Simmons is expected to sit again Wednesday and would be replaced in the starting lineup by Joe Harris, who is shooting 53.8 percent (21 of 39) over his past four games Charlotte has lost three of four, with losses to Boston, the Milwaukee Bucks and Los Angeles Clippers while playing without LaMelo Ball (high ankle sprain) and Gordon Hayward (shoulder). On Monday, the Hornets took a 119-117 loss to the Clippers when they could not stop Kawhi Leonard on the final two possessions. The Hornets could not secure a defensive rebound as Leonard hit the tying putback with 39.7 seconds left and then hit the game-winning 18-footer with 1.4 seconds left. "It's just one rebound that decided the game," Charlotte forward Kelly Oubre Jr. said. "It's been the same story for a couple of nights. Just one rebound. We get this one rebound and we secure possession of the ball and the game is in our hands." Charlotte finished with a 49-47 rebounding margin but also allowed 25 second-chance points and 13 offensive boards. "The biggest possession of the game, the ball's right there," Charlotte coach Steve Clifford added. "That's the game. It's our biggest problem. The nights where we're physical, we're fine. The nights where we're not physical, it doesn't work." Oubre scored 28 points, marking the fifth straight time he scored at least 20. P.J. Washington added 26 after going 0 of 13 on Saturday against Milwaukee. --Field Level Media adverts.addToArray({"pos":"inread_player"})Advertisement
