Warriors get wake-up call as Durant era opens with a thud
- October 28, 2016
This was an old-school beatdown. One game does not a season make, but the San Antonio Spurs 129-100 drubbing of the Golden State Warriors does have some long-term implications. Horford can shoot from outside the three-point line (3.1 three-point shots per game while making 34.4 percent of them) and is also adept at scoring in transition, often getting to the rim without resistance.

Spurs seek end to winless streak against Leicester
- October 28, 2016
Pochettino may well opt for Lamela, Alli , Eriksen and Son behind Janssen - and that is probably his best front five in the absence of Kane - but who looks ready to make an impact off the bench? He moved here by himself. If you want to be a big club and you want to be challenging, then when you have a defeat, you have to bounce back strongly. " There's a long way to go ", Dier told British media. (more...)

Maple Leafs expected to start Frederik Andersen versus Tampa Bay
- October 28, 2016
Maple Leafs defenceman Roman Polak tried but ultimately failed to wrap up Chicago Blackhawks winger Richard Panik on the play that capped off another third-period unravelling for Toronto this season. "I thought Matthews had some great shifts". Andersen, the NHL's only Danish netminder, seemed to think the shot was going to his glove-side as he fought to see it through traffic. (more...)

- October 28, 2016
Publications including the International Business Times , The Guardian and Marca report that the 27-year-old is likely to be absent for around six weeks, which would see him return in mid-December.

Oilers win outdoor game at Winnipeg
- October 28, 2016
Of course, this all came on the Heritage Classic stage, as Winnipeg hosted its first ever outdoor National Hockey League game in front of 33,240 fans at Investors Group Field. Both Canadian teams have done well for themselves, Edmonton in particular. The Oilers have been the slightly better team there so far this year, but the weight of a full season against a week of games is too strong for me to give the edge to the Oil. (more...)

Thunder and Lakers start life without Durant and Bryant

With the Thunder down 18-7 early during Wednesday night's season-opening win over the Philadelphia 76ers, Russell Westbrook chose to take the game into his own hands. The Sixers have invested too much time and energy in Embiid to not pick the option up for next season, and only a disastrous rookie year could have coerced the team into declining Okafor's. (more...)

Pardew wants Palace to step up focus ahead of Liverpool game
- October 28, 2016
And Pardew warned Liverpool the big Belgian is pumped up for the game. Howdy folks and welcome to MirrorFootball's live coverage of Jurgen Klopp's pre-Crystal Palace press conference. "They play high intensity and they're quick to the ball, and that's driven by the manager, but Brendan Rodgers' team wasn't too dissimilar. Probably the last 15 minutes they were better than us, but throughout the game I think we were better and deserved it". (more...)
