TORONTO - Seattle striker Clint Dempsey is the highest-paid player in Major
League Soccer, according to the latest figures from the MLS Players Union.
Cameron Heyward Steelers Jersey . The former
New England Revolution, Fulham and Tottenham forward is making US$5,038,566.50
with the Sounders this season. There are eight other millionaire-plus players in
the league including three forwards with Canadian teams: Marco Di Vaio of the
Montreal Impact ($1,937,508), Toronto FCs Danny Koevermans ($1,663,323.33), and
Kenny Miller ($1,124,992) of the Vancouver Whitecaps. Other big-ticket players
are Thierry Henry ($4,350,000) and Tim Cahill ($3,625,000) of the New York Red
Bulls, Robbie Keane ($4,333,333.33) and Landon Donovan ($2,500,000) of the Los
Angeles Galaxy and Obafemi Martins ($1,725,000) of the Seattle Sounders. Donovan
signed a contract extension last month that is believed to put him in the
Dempsey salary range from next season on. The top Canadian earner is attacking
midfielder Dwayne de Rosario, whose salary at D.C. United is listed at
$645,333.33. Canadian defender Dejan Jakovic makes $303,341.33 at D.C. United.
Canadian international Will Johnson earns $243,750 as captain of the Portland
Timbers. Spanish winger Alvaro Rey is on $204,450 with Toronto FC while captain
Steven Caldwell is a bargain at $89,999,98. Mike Magee of the Chicago Fire is
also great value at $191,666.67. With 16 goals, he stands tied for second in
league scoring with Vancouvers Camilo Sanvezzo ($247,500) behind Di Vaio (18
goals). The salary figures do not tell the whole story since teams can use
allocation money to "buy down" the cost of a player against the salary cap.
NOTES — Midfielder Kyle Bekker scored in a losing cause Wednesday as the Toronto
FC reserves (3-3-1) lost 3-1 at the FC Dallas reserves (4-6-1, 13 points). The
Toronto lineup included Quillan Roberts, Ryan Richter, Michael Thomas, Jonas
Elmer, Reggie Lambe and Emery Welshman ... At 18,610 a game this season,

43,180 followed by Los Angeles (22,156) and Montreal (20,823). Vancouver is
sixth at 19,954 ... Toronto FCs next league victory will be its 50th. The teams
current overall record in MLS play is 49-103-66 in seven seasons.

. Westbrook has missed 27 games since having a procedure on Dec. 27 to deal with
swelling in his injured right knee — the third operation on the knee in nine
months.(Sports Network) - The San Antonio Spurs are fortunate to be up 1-0 in
their series with the Golden State Warriors, but theyll try for a commanding
lead Wednesday night when the two teams jump it up for Game 2 at the AT&T
Center. Manu Ginobili, who was all of 4-for-19 from the floor, buried a
3-pointer with 1.2 seconds left on the clock in double-overtime to give the
Spurs a 129-127 victory. The Warriors built an 18-point lead in the fourth
quarter, but frittered it all away. It was a huge comeback victory for a San
Antonio squad that isnt going to dwell on it. "It is over. You can enjoy it for
a short period of time," Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said after practice on
Tuesday. "We know how theyll come back and theyll react to a tough loss. They
reacted well in Denver in the same situation and theyll react well tomorrow."
Popovich is referring to the Warriors winning Game 2 in their first-round series
with the Denver Nuggets. After losing a heartbreaker in Game 1 when Andre Miller
scored on a late layup, Golden State won in Denver, something only three teams
did all regular season. "We went through the same thing during Game 1 with our
series with Denver," Stephen Curry said. "We know how to come back because we
have been a resilient team all year. We just have to turn it back on and be
ready to go for Game 2." Curry has been ready to go the entire postseason. He
was awesome in Gamee 1 with 44 points, including 22 in the third quarter alone.
Stephon Tuitt Steelers Jersey. Curry, who
played all but four seconds of the double-overtime thriller, went 18-for-35 from
the field, 6-for-14 from long range, and even handed out 11 assists. "Wed like
to figure out how to hold Curry below 40," said Popovich. Good luck. Curry is
averaging 27.1 ppg during the postseason, which is third-best behind Kevin
Durant of the Oklahoma City Thunder and Carmelo Anthony of the New York Knicks.
Curry leads the playoffs in assists at 9.6 per game. "Hes probably the best
shooter Ive ever seen," Tim Duncan said at Spurs practice. Thats high praise for
Curry, who made the cover of this weeks Sports Illustrated. Klay Thompson and
Harrison Barnes both had 19 points. Jarrett Jack chipped in 15 points and Andrew
Bogut and Draymond Green both added 10. Bogut grabbed 15 rebounds and Barnes
pulled down 12 boards. The Spurs were led by their point guard Tony Parker, who
had 28 points. Danny Green went 6-for-9 from long range for 22, then came Duncan
with 19 and 11 rebounds. Duncan battled flu-like symptoms and was limited to 34
minutes. Ginobili finished with 16 points, on two made 3-pointers, and 11
assists and became the hero, despite his horrendous shooting night. "Its only
the second one I made all day," Ginobili said. "Good timing, though." Game 3 is
scheduled for Friday night at Oracle Arena.
