ORLANDO, Fla. Alvin Kamara Youth Jersey . - The Rockets have worked hard this preseason to build a gritty identity.If their finish against the Magic is any indication, theyve made a lot of progress. Jeff Adriens free throw with 35 seconds to play capped Houstons rally Wednesday night, with the Rockets beating Orlando 90-89 in preseason play.Troy Daniels and Isaiah Canaan led the Rockets with 14 points each and Tarik Black added 10 points.The Rockets (5-2) showed fatigue early, committing nine fouls in the first 11 minutes of the game. Adriens late free throw made up for a flagrant foul he committed earlier in the fourth, when he pulled down Orlandos Dewayne Dedmon by the jersey on a shot attempt.Ive got plenty of fouls to give — Im going to use them all. Its just being aggressive, Adrien said. I cant really be mad at myself for anything, Im an aggressive player and this team needs aggressitivity.Houston trailed by 13 entering the fourth quarter and didnt take its first lead of the second half until just over two minutes left in the game.Nik Vucevic led the Magic with 12 points and six rebounds. Orlando (4-3) tied it at 89 with less than a minute to play and tried to overcome the free throw, but Willie Greens jumper bounced off the rim at the buzzer.Houston coach Kevin McHale took it easy on his projected regular-season starters, resting centre Dwight Howard and limiting the minutes of others. James Harden tried to pick up the slack as best he could with nine first-half points in 18 minutes before taking a seat the rest of the way.The late effort by Houstons reserves killed what was otherwise a celebration of sorts for Vucevic. The Magic have until the end of the month to extend Vucevics rookie contract, but the fourth-year big man said Wednesday that his representatives are in the process of finalizing what is expected to be a four-year extension.I think overall, you take this whole scope and scheme of who he is as an individual, and Im pretty proud that hes wearing an Orlando Magic uniform, Magic coach Jacque Vaughn said.___TIP-INSThe Rockets: Howard had the night off after he played 28 minutes Tuesday night at Miami. He has appeared in just three of the Rockets preseason games after being slowed by an issue with his left knee.The Magic: Channing Frye (sprained left MCL) and Victor Oladipo (sprained right MCL) did not play. The team hasnt given a timetable for their return, and said Frye and Oladipo are being evaluated daily. It is unclear whether they will be available for the Oct. 28 regular-season opener at New Orleans.MAGICAL MEMORIESHoward said the he looks back fondly at his eight seasons in a Magic jersey — even if he doesnt recognize the new faces on the bench. I grew up here in Orlando. Had a lot of great memories, no matter how it ended, Howard said before the game. Looking at the team now, theres nobody left. (Jameer Nelson was) the last of the Mohicans, but I was happy with my time here. I see the progress with this team, where theyre trying to go.WILDCATS REUNIONMagic rookie forward Aaron Gordon and Rockets rookie guard Nick Johnson, who were teammates last season at the University of Arizona, met for the second time as pros Wednesday night.

"Today was a very great day for me. It was always my dream to be good in GS," Wierather said. "I took quite a long time to get there. It feels awesome to have my first win (in GS)." Wierather leads overall with 595 points from Lara Gut (568), who finished second, and Maria Hoefl-Riesch of Germany (535). ATLANTA -- A long rain delay and extra innings tested the Washington Nationals mental and physical strength. Matt Williams said he was impressed his NL East-leading team finally found a way to win. Wilson Ramos bases-loaded single sparked Washingtons three-run 11th inning, and the Nationals beat the Atlanta Braves 4-1 on Saturday night. The start of the game was delayed by 3 hours, 41 minutes, and the final out wasnt recorded until Sunday at 2:29 a.m. "Considering all that happened today and the way we had to fight through the last couple of days, it was pretty good for us," Williams said. "We fought all the way." It was the Braves ninth loss in 10 games. The Nationals increased their lead in the division over Atlanta to 4 1/2 games. Anthony Rendon and Adam LaRoche led off the 11th with singles against David Carpenter (4-2). After left fielder Justin Upton made a leaping catch of Ian Desmonds liner, James Russell walked Bryce Harper to load the bases. Ramos then drove in Rendon with a single up the middle off Anthony Vavaro, Atlantas third pitcher of the inning. Devin Frandsens double to right field drove in two runs to make it 4-1. Ramos was initially ruled safe at home on the play, but the call was overturned following a replay challenge by Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez. Tyler Clippard (7-2) pitched a scoreless 10th inning, and Rafael Soriano got three outs for his 26th save in 30 chances. The Braves, who snapped an eight-game losing streak Friday night with a 7-6 win over the Nationals, were frustrated by leaving 11 runners on base. More offensive struggles wasted a strong start by Aaron Harang, who allowed one run in seven innings. "Its tough, especially against a team that we know were trying to make up ground on," Harang said. LaRoches homer in the sixth gave Washington a 1-0 lead, but the Braves tied it in the bottom half. Washingtons Tanner Roark and Harang opened with five scoreless innings before LaRoche led off the sixth with his 16th homer. The Braves settled for one run after loading the bases with no outs in the sixth. Tommy La Stella scored on Jason Heywards broken-bat fly ball to shallow centre field. Roark also lasted seeven innings, allowing one run, six hits and three walks. Marcus Williams Jersey. BOOS FOR BRYCE Nationals outfielder Bryce Harper, booed consistently by Braves fans, might have tried to send a message back to the fans by scraping his cleat over the Atlanta "A" carved into the dirt behind the batters box, as if trying to scuff it. Fans responded with more boos. SPAN THE MAN Denard Spans fifth-inning triple gave him a 13-game hitting streak. He has reached base in 35 consecutive games, a streak that began on June 28. ALUMNI SOFTBALL Newly inducted Hall of Famer Greg Maddux, and Chipper Jones were among the former Braves players who played in a legends softball game. Jones, wearing shorts and striped socks, homered in his first at-bat. Maddux settled for a double. John Rocker and Ryan Klesko were among other players to easily clear the short fence for homers. TRAINERS ROOM Nationals: Right fielder Jayson Werth was scratched from the lineup as he continues to be slowed by a sore right ankle and right shoulder. He walked as a pinch-hitter in the 11th and should start on Sunday night, according to Williams. ... Outfielder Steven Souza, who hurt his shoulder in a collision with the right-field wall and left Fridays game, entered as a pinch-runner for Werth. Braves: Shortstop Andrelton Simmons sprained left ankle is improving. Gonzalez said Simmons might play by Tuesday. Simmons was no longer wearing a soft cast, but had the ankle wrapped. ... Right-hander Shae Simmons, on the disabled list with a right shoulder strain since July 27, said he "felt really good today" throwing in the outfield. He still hasnt thrown off a mound. UP NEXT Nationals: Left-hander Gio Gonzalez will try to end a streak of four straight losses in his last five starts at Turner Field on Sunday night. He won his first two career starts in Atlanta before a long string of bad luck. Gonzalez has received one run of support in each of his last five starts in Atlanta. Braves: Left-hander Alex Wood will look for his first win since July 20. Wood is 0-2 in his last three starts, dropping him to 7-9 with a 3.20 ERA for the season. Wood is 1-1 with a 2.25 ERA in two starts against Washington this season. Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys ' ' '
