SAN ANTONIO -- The Spurs got knocked around by the Miami Heat, especially in the second half. Some bumps and bruises werent enough to stop a San Antonio team that finally had its starting five intact, though.Kawhi Leonard had 24 points and 12 rebounds, LaMarcus Aldridge added 18 points and San Antonio held on to beat Miami 94-90 on Monday night.The Heat held the Spurs to 26 percent shooting after halftime but couldnt find enough offense to prevent their fifth straight loss.You have to give them credit, Spurs point guard Tony Parker said. They played great defense in the second half. They played with more energy and they played more physical. We have to find a solution next time.San Antonios projected starting five of Leonard, Aldridge, Parker, Pau Gasol and Danny Green made its home debut after injuries to the starting backcourt led to five different starting lineups in the teams first nine games.Despite that, the Spurs committed a season-high 17 turnovers and got roughed up throughout. Gasol tumbled to the floor on several occasions, including crashing into the stanchion after being struck from behind by Dion Waiters on a layup. Green did not play in the second half after taking a knee to the groin in the first half.Second half was probably one of our better defensive halves and weve had some really good defensive halves in games this year, Miami coach Erik Spoelstra said. But thats about as hard as weve competed on that end.The Heat pulled within 87-83 with two minutes remaining, but the Spurs were able to extend their lead when Patty Mills and Leonard were fouled on consecutive possessions.Waiters, who tormented San Antonio in the playoffs last season while with Oklahoma City, had 27 points. He was 12 for 26 from the field but did not attempt a free throw.Thats the crazy part about, Im not the type of guy that would question the referees on anything, Waiters said. But I look at how many layup attempts I got tonight, like 15, and I havent gotten to the line one time.Center Hassan Whiteside had 23 points and 17 rebounds, giving him a double-double in eight of nine games this season.Gasol had 12 points, Parker added 11 points and six assists and Green was limited to three points in 15 minutes.The returning starters sparked a 21-6 run in the first quarter after the Spurs gave up the games first four points.Aldridge was 4 for 4 in the opening quarter, setting up on the wing and awaiting feeds from Leonard, Green and Patty Mills. Aldridge made his first seven shots before finishing 8 for 14.The Spurs nearly blew that early efficiency with a sloppy third quarter.We were out of sync a little bit with our offense, especially in the third, Leonard said. It starts off with me. Ive got to be more patient and run the offense.TIP-INSHeat: Miami PG Goran Dragic is no longer in a walking boot and is doing light bike work as he recovers from a sprained left ankle.

Grossiste Chaussures .com) - The red-hot Los Angeles Kings will try to extend their winning streak to a season-high seven games when they visit the Edmonton Oilers for Sundays clash at Rexall Place.Sydney Roosters would be finals-bound if they had managed to field their full contingent of players for most of the NRL season, according to Cronulla coach Shane Flanagan.The Roosters have been one of the seasons big disappointments, but only fielded a full strength side for the first time this year in their round 19 loss to the Sharks on Monday night.The Tricolours have been hit hard by injury and suspension, but their poor form this season has also been blamed on the off-season departures of James Maloney, Michael Jennings and Roger Tuivasa-Sheck.Premiership frontrunners Cronulla were pressed hard by the Tricolours before clinching a 32-20 win and Flanagan believes the Roosters are a side capable of featuring at the business end of the season if things had been different.The Roosters are a good footy side and they played well against us, Flanagan saidIf they had have had that team together all year they would have been playing semi finals.They are big, they are powerful, Mitchell (Pearce), if they had him there all year they would have been playing semi finals.It is probably a real good warning to the wholee game that you need your best players on the field and the Roosters are a classic example of not having their best players, especially at the start of the season.ddddddddddddearce missed the first eight matches of the season due to a disciplinary suspension. Star forwards Jared Waerea-Hargreaves and Boyd Cordner have also missed a large chunk of the season due to injury.However, Robinson was in no mood for introspection as the second last-placed Roosters (3-14) suffered another defeat to the Sharks (15-2), who secured their 14 successive win.It is hard to reflect at the moment on what would have happened, Robinson said.It is funny. I feel like we are a really confident team but we look like we lack some confidence each time we play. We really enjoy training and playing and we enjoy each others company and we are doing some really good work.But it is not paying off at the moment. If we keep going we will.I feel that was a really good start but we better tidy up some stuff quickly. ' ' '
