Talk » who coached the Magic from 2007-12, Ha

BERKELEY, Calif. -- Matt Anderson kicked a 28-yard field goal in the second overtime and Jordan Kunaszyk sealed the victory with an interception that gave California a 52-49 victory over Oregon on Friday night.Its crazy, Kunaszyk said. I just remember going into OT, I was like, `Man, another one of these games. Every one of our games is close. I wouldnt want it any other way.This was the sixth straight game for Cal that went down to the closing minutes, including an overtime loss at Oregon State two weeks ago and a home win against Utah the previous week when Cals defense came up with a late goal-line stand.This game featured an FBS-record 203 plays from scrimmage, 101 points, 1,086 yards, 28 penalties, a missed 41-yard field goal by Anderson on the final play of regulation and the one turnover at the end that decided it,Our defenses back was against the wall, just like it was against Utah, coach Sonny Dykes said. Jordan made a big time break on the ball. You could kind of see it developing. He threw it a tad bit late.Davis Webb threw five touchdown passes and ran for a sixth to lead the way for the Golden Bears (4-3, 2-2 Pac-12), who snapped a seven-game losing streak to Oregon.Freshman Justin Herbert threw six touchdown passes and rallied Oregon back from a 20-point deficit in the third quarter but it wasnt enough for the Ducks (2-5, 0-4), who lost their fifth straight game for their longest skid since 1996.I feel awful that we couldnt get it done for them, of how theyve stuck together and weathered through a lot, theyve had a lot of opportunities to splinter and they havent, coach Mark Helfrich said.The teams traded touchdowns in the first overtime with Herbert throwing a 20-yarder to Jalen Brown for Oregon and Webb answering with a 1-yard run for Cal.The Ducks held the Bears to a field goal to start the second overtime but couldnt deliver on offense.THE TAKEAWAYOregon: Just 21 months since playing for a national championship, the Ducks find themselves at the bottom of the Pac-12. The collapse has been complete. The defense got torched once again, leaving receivers unguarded for touchdowns and allowing scores on six straight possessions. The offense punted on its first four drives against a Cal defense that ranks near the bottom in all statistical categories. The Ducks were also undisciplined, committing 14 penalties for 134 yards, including personal fouls on back-to-back plays in the first half.California: Dykes had lost all 12 games to Oregon, Stanford, USC and UCLA as Cal coach before this breakthrough win. But the Ducks arent the same team they were just a few years ago, taking some of the luster off of it. The Bears were sloppy as well, committing 14 penalties and struggling on defense but pulled out the win behind Webbs strong play and a stellar running game. Tre Watson ran for 154 yards and Khalfani Muhammad had 148.UP NEXTOregon: The Ducks host Arizona State next Saturday.California: The Bears have another weeknight game when they travel to USC next Thursday.---AP college football website: collegefootball.ap.org Troy Terry Jersey . With the short-handed Warriors needing help from someone -- anyone -- to stop a three-game skid, ONeal returned from right knee and groin injuries that had sidelined him for four games and put up season highs with 18 points and eight rebounds. It was just enough to help lift Golden State to a 102-101 victory over the New Orleans Pelicans on Tuesday night. Cam Fowler Jersey . And when it opened, every player was at his stall. Thats a sure sign that a team is in a slump and is searching for answers. "Its embarrassing to be at home and play the way we did," said defenceman Josh Gorges. https://www.cheapducks.com/1027c-ryan-miller-jersey-ducks.html . -- Charlie Graham stopped 67 shots as the Belleville Bulls edged the visiting Guelph Storm 6-5 on Saturday in Ontario Hockey League action.

He was taken to a local hospital where the clot was revealed. The club announced the surgery following a 5-3 exhibition loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets. ORLANDO, Fla. -- Alex Martins full-time job is CEO of the Orlando Magic. But throughout the season, the 52-year-old has another role that comes into focus once the NBA calendar turns to July. Martins serves as the gatekeeper for the Orlando Summer League, the less-publicized and more exclusive summer locale for NBA teams to check out their newest draft picks and younger players trying to find a way into the league.We have a waiting list of teams right now that would love to get in, Martins told ESPN.com recently.The Magic executive didnt say this in boastful way. In fact, he went out of his way to say that he and the rest of his staff wanted to work alongside the NBA and the organizers of the Vegas Summer League to make sure they werent stepping on any toes. But Orlando has turned into the preferred destination for many around the league, away from the glitz and glamor of the Vegas Strip.How did this happen?Back in 2002, Martins and the Magic staff were looking to try something different. The Atlanta Hawks, Charlotte Hornets and Miami Heat joined up with the Magic, and the Orlando Summer League was up and running.Vegas is very productive and the teams that go out there love it and enjoy it and they get benefit out of it, Martins said. But we wanted to create an environment that was really just all about basketball. In a basketball setting, not an arena-type setting. Where the media and scouts and team officials could access and watch and evaluate, but confined to that group. Over the years, what weve been told by the teams that participate here is that they really love that environment. They love the fact that its just all about basketball. And thats not speaking negatively about Vegas in any means -- this is just different.In Vegas, teams play in the Thomas & Mack Center and the Cox Pavilion, much larger venues, which serve as the home to the UNLV mens and womens basketball teams. In 2002, the Magic started the Orlando league in the RDV Sportsplex on the practice floor the Magic used. In 2010, the Magic moved the league to the new Amway Center, but maintained the cozy atmosphere by still using their practice floor in the new structure, not the arena floor itself.The biggest difference in atmosphere, besides the cities themselves, is that the Orlando Summer League is not open to the public. The only people who can gain access are team or league personnel, agents, scouts and media. The Vegas Summer League, and now the even smaller Utah Summer League, are both open to fans. The Orlando games are broadcast on NBA TV and streamed on ESPN3 but there are only a couple hundred people in attendance in the small gym.Detroit Pistons coach and head of basketball operations, Stan Van Gundy, loves the set up in Orlando. I like the environment for players, Van Gundy said. I like the environment that its not public so you dont have a lot of people comiing in.dddddddddddd I think they can concentrate on their game more. I like this as a city a lot more than Las Vegas, Utah would probably be the same, but a few less distractions. I think they just run a really, really well-organized league. You can just come here and get to work. Well have been here 12 days, and its 12 good work days with great organization and no distractions.Part of the charm of the Orlando league is in its quaintness. In Vegas, league personnel are spread out in hotels on the Vegas Strip. In Orlando, many players and coaches can walk back and forth to the arena from the hotels located nearby. Coaches and executives can come and go as they please without being hassled by fans.Since its inception in 2002, the Orlando league has grown to a nine-team venture (the Magic have a Blue Team and a White Team to even out the schedule to 10) and has developed a loyal following. Like Van Gundy, who coached the Magic from 2007-12, Hall of Famer Patrick Ewing sung the praises of the league. Ewing, who coached the Charlotte Hornets summer league entry, served on Van Gundys Magic staff.I enjoy coming to Orlando, Ewing said. Ive lived there, I think its great. I like the fact that this one, you get in, you get your work done, and then you leave.Martins says the Magic dont make any money off the league itself, but the exposure for both the organization and the Orlando area is important.Theres no financial benefit to us, Martins said. The way it works is every team has an entry fee, and we ask basically the teams that participate just to cover all the costs. We have everything. We feed the media, we feed all the personnel that are here. We have expenses associated with using the building, etc. So we just charge an entry fee so that we cover all that. The entry fee is around $10,000-15,000 depending on the year.While there has been some talk about expanding the league in the future, Martins says there hasnt been much talk about opening the league up to the public. The only exception came in 2003 when LeBron James played his first professional game as a member of the Cleveland Cavaliers Summer League team. Aside from the sellout crowd at the old Amway Center, that game will always be remembered as the one in which former Utah alum Britton Johnsen, playing for the Magics summer league team, dunked on James.Theres always room for that special situation, Martins said. Like the year that LeBron came out and we took the game to the old Amway Arena. But beyond that, again, the beauty of this specific summer league is that it is all about basketball. Its about basketball personnel, both from the administrative side as well as the competitive side and the playing side. And thats what everybody loves about coming here. ' ' '
