MINNEAPOLIS -- Kevin Love had 32 points, 15 rebounds and eight assists to lead
the Minnesota Timberwolves to a 116-108 victory over the Dallas Mavericks on
Friday night.
www.cheapjerseyswholesale.top . Kevin Martin
added 32 points and five rebounds and Corey Brewer scored 17 points to help the
Timberwolves snap a two-game skid. Jose Calderon made 6 of 8 3-pointers and
scored 21 points for the Mavericks. Monta Ellis scored 23 points and
Dirk Nowitzki added 14 for Dallas. The Mavericks played without trusted reserve
Vince Carter, who was suspended for the game for elbowing Oklahoma Citys
Steven Adams on Wednesday. The Wolves led by 11 in the third and eight with less
than 4:30 to play, but had to hold their breath down the stretch. Calderon hit
his sixth 3 of the night, Ellis scored on a drive to the bucket to make it
105-102 Minnesota with 2:24 to go. Love, who just missed his first triple-double
of his career, hit a 3 on the other end, Ricky Rubio foiled Elliss drive to the
basket and Love sealed it with a 17-foot Nowitzki-style fade-away on the
baseline with 1:13 to play. Nikola Pekovic had 15 points and six rebounds for
Minnesota. Jae Crowder had 10 points and six rebounds for Dallas. The new-look
Mavericks have been one of the best offensive teams in the league, with Ellis
and Calderon making a seamless transition and flourishing as role players
surrounding Nowitzki. Ellis has been remarkably efficient in comparison to his
volume shooting ways with the Warriors and Bucks, entering the game shooting 55
per cent on 2-pointers. That efficiency wasnt there on Friday night as Ellis
needed 24 shots to score 23 points. The Wolves appeared to be taking control
midway through the third quarter with a 16-4 surge that put them in front by 11.
But the Mavericks came right back, getting two 3s from Calderon and another from
Ellis during a 13-3 run that cut the deficit to one point. For much of the game,
Love was the Timberwolves best passer, even with Rubio on the floor. He hit
Brewer for several home run passes and racked up six assists in a sensational
first quarter. He also had nine points and six rebounds in the period. Rubio had
six points on 2-for-8 shooting and four assists and he was bottled up for most
of the night by Spanish countrymen Calderon, who didnt fall for the sleight of
hand that Rubio uses to keep defenders off balance. Calderon also had seven
assists and four rebounds. NOTES: Carter said at shootaround that he wished he
could take the elbow to Adams back, but couldnt and felt bad for putting his
team in the position of not having him available for the game. ... Timberwolves
F Derrick Williams did not play because of back spasms. ... Robbie Hummel made
his NBA debut for the Timberwolves, scoring two points in 11 minutes.

Uniteds eighth defeat of a wretched campaign means Liverpool, which currently
occupies the fourth and final Champions League place, could go nine points clear
of its fierce rival by beating West Bromwich Albion on Sunday. Charlie Adam
scored both of Stokes goals at Britannia Stadium either side of Robin van
Persies equalizer, with a miserable day for seventh-place United capped by
first-half injuries to centre halves Jonny Evans and Phil Jones that forced them
off.

Matt Rupert scored once in regulation and again in the shootout as the London
Knights extended their win streak to nine games by defeating the Owen Sound
Attack 4-3 on Friday in Ontario Hockey League action.The St. Louis Blues absence
from top spot in the TSN.ca NHL Power Rankings was short-lived, as they returned
to the No. 1 ranking, overtaking the San Jose Sharks. Neither the Blues nor
Sharks had their best week last week, but the Sharks three-game losing streak
was enough to flip-flop the top two teams, and both held off the Chicago
Blackhawks and Los Angeles Kings. Rising up, on the strength of having lost just
once in their last 14 games, the Montreal Canadiens climb from ninth to fifth,
while a four-game winning streak helped the Vancouver Canucks jump from 13th to
ninth. Despite losing another defenceman to injury, the Dallas Stars did get
centre Tyler Seguin back last week and they bounced back from 19th to 13th as a
result. The Pittsburgh Penguins lineup has taken a beating, with Evgeni Malkin
and Brookss Orpik injured, then James Neal suspended, so the Penguins slide from
eighth to 11th, matching their season low.dddddddddddd With no regulation wins
in the last five, the New Jersey Devils are down four spots, from 22 to 26, one
spot ahead of the Philadelphia Flyers, who just lost centre Vincent Lecavalier
to injury, again. Among the other Canadian teams, the Winnipeg Jets and Toronto
Maple Leafs each fell one spot, to 16th and 21st, respectively, and the Ottawa
Senators inched ahead one spot, to 23rd. The Senators are followed by the
Calgary Flames, who are up three spots to 24th, and the Edmonton Oilers, up one
spot to 25th. Scott Cullen can be reached at Scott.Cullen@bellmedia.ca and
