over the Los Angeles Lakers on Christmas. He shot 28 per cent (36 for 129) in his previous seven game

SURREY, B.C. - Grey Cup organizers were hoping for different outcomes in the CFL playoffs over the weekend, but they still believe the big game on Nov. 30 will be a sellout. Both the hometown B.C. Lions and Saskatchewan Roughriders � who have the most rabid fanbase in the league � were eliminated from post-season play on Sunday. Despite those disappointing results, 102nd Grey Cup Festival general manager Jamie Pitblado is confident the remaining 6,500 unsold tickets will be gone by kickoff on Nov. 30 at Vancouvers B.C. Place Stadium. Once we get those two finalists the big push will start and well certainly be sold out come game time, Pitblado said Tuesday. We were certainly hoping the Lions would have a stronger showing and continue the march and wed move a few more (tickets) along the way, but it is what it is. We always prepare a game and a festival not knowing whos going to be in it. The last three years organizers got spoiled having the home team in. Now its just back to having to do some hard work and push the tickets. The Calgary Stampeders host the Edmonton Eskimos in the West Division final, while the Hamilton Tiger-Cats welcome the Montreal Alouettes in the East showdown. I think all the teams will draw well. Certainly if you look at (Lions) home games, when we play Calgary we get quite a large contingent of red and white, said Pitblado. So Calgary would be a strong one and a helpful one, but Edmontons playing some strong football right now so I wouldnt put anything past them. B.C. Place hosted a sold-out Grey Cup back in 2011 when the Lions beat the Winnipeg Blue Bombers in the first major event at the venue following its renovation after the 2010 Olympics. Capacity is 54,500 and Pitblado estimated about 15,000 of the tickets � which range in price from $175 to $445 � already sold for this years game have been bought by fans outside of British Columbia. I just think we continue what were doing. We have a good plan in place, said Pitblado. We built this plan not expecting the Lions to be in it, that (would have been) gravy. Josh Richardson Jersey . Yoenis Cespedes proved he can play through a hurting right heel, giving Scott Kazmir and the As a spark with a pair of RBIs that helped spoil the Minnesota Twins home opener with an 8-3 victory on Monday. Goran Dragic Jersey . The 33-year-old Spaniard, who held the lead since the second round, turned in a solid final round that featured six birdies and two bogeys to finish on 22-under 266. The victory is Garcias first this year with his last win coming at the Johor Open, an Asian Tour event in Malaysia last December. http://www.authenticbasketballshopheat.c...-heat-jersey/.S. - Nova Scotias Mary Fay guaranteed at least one more match and a shot at the Canadian junior curling championships final on home ice.

Getting ready for dinner http://t.co/NNIfKyZQzx � Joel-Hans Embiid (@JoelEmbiid) July 23, 2014 Almost 930..CHICAGO - The Orlando Magic used their offence to earn a sorely needed win. Nikola Vucevic and Victor Oladipo each played a big role.Vucevic had 33 points and 11 rebounds, and the Magic snapped a six-game losing streak with a 121-114 victory over the Chicago Bulls on Monday night.Orlando (14-27) shot a season-high 59 per cent from the field in its first win in Chicago since an 83-82 victory on Dec. 16, 2013. The Magic had lost three in a row and 12 of 15 against the Bulls since the start of the 2010-11 season.Oladipo also scored 33 points in Orlandos highest scoring game of the season, and rookie Elfrid Payton added 10 points and seven assists.I guess the worm turned, said Magic coach Jacque Vaughn, whose team failed to score more than 98 points in any game during the losing streak. We were very aggressive with our approach. Our pace was great.Vucevic was 16 for 24 from the field in his NBA-best 23rd double-double of the season. The terrific performance for the 7-foot centre included a drive and left-handed dunk over forward Pau Gasol late in third period.I just wanted to get to the rim and finish strong, Vucevic said. I got up high enough and I wanted to dunk it. I dont do it very often, so Im sure they were surprised.The Bulls (26-13) lost for the seventh time against teams currently with sub-500 records. Five of those losses were at home.Part of it is concentration, playing with a sense of urgency and an edge, just allowing teams to take off early in the game and having to fight back, Gasol said.While the Bulls have displayed a more efficient offence this season, coach Tom Thibodeau thinks they often lose sight of what makes them a playoff contender.If were just going to try to outscore people, were not going anywhere, Thibodeau said. I know what doesnt work. Were going to have to bring a lot of intensity, and the only way to bring more intensity is to work harder. Its really that simple.Gasol paced Chicago with 28 points and 14 rebounds, and Derrick Rose had 18 points and seven assists. Jimmy Butler finished with 17 points.Rose was 8 for 15 from the field in his return to the lineup after missing Saturday nights 95-87 victory overr Milwaukee with left knee soreness.ddddddddddddYou can tell (Thibodeau) is frustrated, which he has every right to be, Rose said. I wouldnt say the guys are frustrated, but its irritating to lose these games and make these games harder than they (should be).Orlando carried a 93-78 lead into the fourth quarter, but managed only one free throw in the next 3 1/2 minutes. Reserves Taj Gibson and Nikola Mirotic led a Chicago comeback that got the Bulls within three with 2:16 to play. But Joakim Noah missed two free throws for Chicago and Oladipo followed with a layup.The Magic jumped to a 63-55 halftime lead. They shot 61 per cent in each of the first two quarters against the usually stout Bulls, who had ranked fourth in the NBA in field-goal percentage defence.Chicago had no answer for Vucevic, who had 12 points, six rebounds and three assists in the first half. Orlando received a considerable boost from its bench, which scored 25 points in that span.OFF BY A HAIRIt was Roses best shooting game since he was 7 for 14 from the field in a 113-93 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers on Christmas. He shot 28 per cent (36 for 129) in his previous seven games.I got a new haircut, so who knows? he said when asked about the turnaround. Ive just been missing shots. It got nothin to do with (health). No excuses. I just been missing shots.TIP-INSMagic: Ex-Bulls G Ben Gordon returned to Chicago, where he spent the first five seasons of his career. Played in some big games, hit some big shots, said Gordon, who still has friends and family in the area. Ive got a lot more good memories here than bad ones. ... Evan Fournier (sprained right knee), forward Aaron Gordon (fractured left foot) and Tobias Harris (sprained left ankle) were not available.Bulls: F Mike Dunleavy reported improvemBent in his sore right ankle but still had not resumed running exercises. He isnt likely to return until this weekend at the earliest. Tony Snell started in his place for the second consecutive game. ... Rookie forward Doug McDermott (right knee surgery) also was inactive.UP NEXTMagic: Host Houston on Wednesday night.Bulls: Host Washington on Wednesday night.
