NEW YORK -- Twitter is proving to be one costly website for J.R. Smith. The NBA fined the New York Knicks guard $25,000 on Friday for his exchange with Detroit Pistons guard Brandon Jennings on the social media website. The league said the penalty was for "directing hostile and inappropriate language to another player via his Twitter account." Smiths latest Twitter flap -- he also was fined $25,000 by the NBA last year for a racy tweet -- started Wednesday after Jennings made a critical comment about Smiths little brother, Chris, who also plays for the Knicks.

Smith, saying he is tired of people disrespecting his little brother, responded with a couple of tweets, including one thhat appeared threatening toward Detroit and was later taken down. Nike Air Max 2017. "Im always in trouble with Twitter," Smith said before the Knicks 109-106 loss to Houston on Thursday night. "I dont know what it is. Trying to shake it." Smith denied any bad intent, saying he and Jennings have played together in the summer and had a good relationship. He added that he didnt think his tweets were a big deal, but said coach Mike Woodson talked to him about it. Smith said he had stayed off Twitter recently but grew tired of the criticisms of Chris, whose roster spot has been a source of controversy. Chris Smith hasnt proven himself to be an NBA player, and Woodson said during the preseason that being J.R. Smiths brother would be a factor when he decided on his final cuts.

Barcelona, Spain (SportsNetwork. Adidas NMD R1 Køb .com) - Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Neymar all found the back of the net on Sunday as Barcelona rolled to a 3-1 victory over defending champions Atletico Madrid at the Camp Nou. Rumors of a rift between Messi and manager Luis Enrique linger around the Camp Nou, but the potential effects of such an issue were not evident on the field on Sunday as Messi set up a goal and scored late on to pull Barcelona within one point of the top spot in La Liga. The home side opened the scoring after 12 minutes when Suarez got a touch on a cross that found its way to Neymar at the back post and the Brazil international fired it home. Suarez, the former Liverpool star, got into the scoring act for his second goal of the season in the 35th minute via a nice assist from Messi to double the advantage, but Atletico pulled one back in the 57th minute when former Bayern Munich man Mario Mandzukic converted a penalty kick. But Messi made sure all three points went home with Barcelona when he put the result to bed with three minutes to play. The win pulls Barcelona within one point of arch rivals Real Madrid, while Atletico remains in third place with 38 points from 18 matches played.

BEIJING -- Kevin Koes curling team accomplished what has been a rare feat this season, winning its opening game at the 2014 world mens curling championship. Koes Calgary squad of third Pat Simmons, second Carter Rycroft, and lead Nolan Thiessen methodically cruised to a 6-3 victory Saturday over Denmarks Rasmus Stjerne. "We lost the first game at the (Canadian Curling) trials, we lost our first game at the provincials and we lost our first game at the (Tim Hortons) Brier," Rycroft said, laughing. "Coach (John) Dunn said, I dont want that to happen again. "Mission accomplished: 1-and-0." It took some time for both teams to adjust to ice conditions in an arena more noted for hosting the 2008 Olympic volleyball competition. Canada pounced on Danish misses in the third end to score two, then stole single points in the following two ends to take control. Canadas airtight defence went to work the rest of the way. "If youre up, your shots are usually simpler, and with the ice being tricky, thats a big advantage," said Koe. "If youre having to play come-arounds and freezes to get back into it, those arent easy to begin with, let alone when the ice is tricky, so if you can throw them hard, which we like to do, thats always a good sign." Stjerne, who skipped the Danes to a fourth-place finish at the 2013 worlds in Victoria, said Canada is a "tough team to come back on." "They never gave us an iinch," Stjerne said. Adidas NMD Dame. "I felt like we had a couple opportunities to get a deuce, but we never took advantage and it bit us in the end."

(The Danes) are a good team, they made the playoffs last year, so theyre one of the better teams here," said Koe, who was scored at 96 per cent for the night. "And weve got off to a slow start everywhere this year, so to get the win under our belt feels good." In other Saturday games, Oskar Eriksson of Sweden (2-0) topped Pete Fenson of the U.S. (0-2) 8-6, while Johnny Jahr of Germany, who was 0-9 at the Olympics, improved to 2-0 with a 9-5 win over Evgeny Arkhipov of Russia (1-1).

Vapormax Nike Noir . Louis, MO (SportsNetwork.ST. PAUL, Minn. -- Josh Harding has been perhaps the feel-good story of the NHL season, putting up numbers unmatched for a goalie after revealing that he has multiple sclerosis.

"Josh feels great and he looks forward to rejoining our team for our game in Winnipeg on Dec. 27."

He is fresh off making 29 saves and stopping all three shootout attempts by Vancouver in Minnesotas 3-2 victory over the Canucks on Tuesday night. Harding will have to miss at least a week while on injured reserve. That means he will be out at least three games. Backstrom, who is 2-5-2 with a 2.93 goals-against average, will carry the load while Harding is way. Johan Gustafsson has been recalled from Iowa of the AHL to take Hardings spot and could see some action if Harding winds up missing more time than initially expected.

Seven NHL referees and six linesmen will be assigned upcoming games in Sochi by the IIHF as part of their 28-man officiating roster comprised of 14 refs and 14 linesmen.The National Hockey League is always looking for ways to improve its accuracy rate when it comes to ruling on controversial goals. NHL Hockey Operations is expected to meet with a group in the near future that has designed a camera system that can be installed in the posts of the nets. This system may provide a more clear view of the goal line and by design may assist the league in determining - conclusively - whether or not the puck crosses the line. This meeting was planned well before Tuesday nights game between the Philadelphia Flyers and Ottawa Senators where midway through the third period, it appeared Ottawas Kyle Turris had given his team a 3-2 edge. Turris shot ricocheted off both of Nicklas Grossmanns skates and from the camera angles provided, it seemingly crossed the goal line. Veteran referee Paul Devorski immediately waved off the goal and a lengthy video review was unable to warrant overturning the call on the ice. Check out the scoring chance and the goal here. The NHL is very sensitive to this issue and would love to find the technology that can deliver 100 per cent accuracy. Thats unlikely to happen anytime soon, so Hockey Operations does its best to deliver consistency. The league also installs additional in-net cameras after the warm-up of each game which arent always used for television purposes, mostly because of quality. Adidas Running Trainers Sale. However, they do assist the video review process by offering another angle when televisions robotic cameras arent available. The league has explored other methods of improving its odds of getting it right. Most recently, a green line inside the net and below the goal line was tested as part of a research and development strategy in 2011. If a puck at any point touched the "verification line," by design, it would be ruled a good goal as it would have had to completely cross the goal line. At the time, it seemed like a great idea. But the depth of the ice over top of the goal line and verification line impacted perception to the point that the NHL abandoned the experiment. The Cyclops and Hawk-Eye systems used in tennis were also investigated by the National Hockey League. But for a variety of reasons, including the expense, the NHL decided this technology wasnt a fit. Sensors in pucks, cameras in goal posts, computer generated tracking software are all options that have either been considered, or are, being looked at. But there doesnt appear to be a visual aid or device that has been developed that is worth the cost and can guarantee perfection. Until that happens, its old school for the NHL.

Every night of the Stanley Cup playoffs, TSN hockey analyst and former NHL goaltender Jamie McLennan breaks down each goalies performance.Scarpe Nike Blazer Basse Vintage Suede Nere/Bianche . Jamies number grades given are out of five, with five being the best mark. Jonathan Quick, Los Angeles Kings (3) – Quick had a couple good saves early on Patrick Sharp and Brandon Saad. First goal was a give-and-go quick play that Patrick Kane forehanded blocker side on a one-timer. The second one is a smart play by Ben Smith to bank it off Quick. Great save on a 2-on-0 where Sharp had an open net backdoor. He showed his agility and edge work a lot tonight. Huge save on Nick Leddy early in the third period to keep it at 2 to 1. He was screened on the Duncan Keith goal by Saad in front and was beaten short side. The game-winning goal was a seeing eye shot that goes short side through a screen by Andrew Shaw. Corey Crawford, Chicago Blackhawks (4) – Crawford had good saves early on Tanner Pearson and Jeff Carter. The goal by Dwight King is a quick play that comes from behind the net and it beats him five-hole. Big saves in the second period on Carter, Tyler Toffoli and Marian Gaborik, to keep it close. He was the story in the second period for the Hawks, as he battled to keep the lead. Drew Doughtys goal was a screen shot with Mike Richards in front.

Nike Blazer Basse Bianche .com) - Nino Williams posted 18 points and seven rebounds, as Kansas State edged No.JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Tom Coughlins much-maligned defence has a chance to look considerably better Sunday.The Giants (3-8) play at Jacksonville (1-10), which is averaging an NFL-low 14.6 points and managed just a field goal in a lopsided loss at Indianapolis last week. It appears to be a favourable matchup for the Giants, who will try to end a six-game losing streak.Coughlin has preached to his team about finishing games, which was the primary problem in losses to Seattle, San Francisco and Dallas the last three weeks.Thats about the story of the season, Coughlin said.The Giants were tied at 17 heading into the fourth quarter at Seattle three weeks ago before losing by 21. Trailing 16-10 late in the fourth against San Francisco the following week, New York had first-and-goal at the 4-yard line before Eli Manning threw an interception.Last weeks loss to Dallas may have been the worst of the bunch.The Giants scored to take a 28-24 with three minutes remaining, but then surrendered an 80-yard touchdown drive that dealt Coughlin his second six-game losing streak in as many seasons.So closing out games has become a trend and a concern.Definitely; I think that is obvious, Giants linebacker Jameel McClain said. We havent completed a game, and finishing is the most important part in football. The cliché statement is Its not how you start, its how you finish. It is really the most important part we have been missing out on.The defence has been the biggest culprit, giving up nearly 400 yards a game and recording just 19 sacks.The unit could enjoy a turnaround against Jacksonville, which has lost four in a row by double digits.Rookie Blake Bortles continues to struggle. He leads the league with 15 interceptions and looks less comfortable in the pocket than he did in his first start two months ago.Granted, Bortles is playing behind a shaky line that includes two rookies and two second-year pros.

He has plenty of friends in the area and still has numerous ties to the expansion franchise he built into a Super Bowl contender in the 1990s.

Jacksonville last played at EverBank Field on Oct. 26, a 27-13 loss to Miami.
