OAKLAND, Calif. -- One of the hottest shooting guards in the NBA hooks up with one of the coldest shooting backcourts in the league Sunday night when the Golden State Warriors and Phoenix Suns meet for the second time this season.Kevin Durant poured in 37 points when the clubs dueled Oct. 30 in Phoenix, leading Golden State to a narrow 106-100 victory.Stephen Curry hit nine of his 17 shots, including five 3-pointers, that night, but things have since changed for the leagues reigning Most Valuable Player.Curry had his record-breaking, 157-game streak with at least one made 3-pointer end three games later against the Los Angeles Lakers, and hes been making opponent pay ever since.He set another record three nights later, burying 13 from long range against New Orleans, and followed that up with a total of 11 more in subsequent wins over Dallas and Denver.Curry enters Sundays game having scored 103 points in his last three games, making 24 3-pointers and 34 of his 55 shots in all.Not at all surprising, Warriors coach Steve Kerr said after Currys 46-point barrage against the Pelicans on Monday. Hes done it throughout his career where he comes right back off of a bad game and lights it up.The bad news Sunday for the Suns is that another Warrior -- Durant -- has a bounce-back motive after seeing his run of 72 games scoring at least 20 points come to an end in Thursdays victory at Denver.Durant had 18 points in the win, which was Golden States third in a row.Having been off since Thursday, the Warriors face a Suns team that endured a tight game Saturday night, and then traveled after it.The Suns were beaten 122-104 at home by the Brooklyn Nets, a game Phoenix trailed 102-100 before the visitors ran off 17 straight points to send Phoenix to its third defeat in its last four outings.The loss was as much a product of bad shooting by the Suns as it was the late flurry by the Nets. Suns guards Eric Bledsoe (1 for 8), Devin Booker (5 for 18) and Brandon Knight (2 for 13) combined to miss 31 of their 39 shots on a night when Phoenix shot a season-low 37.4 percent.Suns coach Earl Watson said his guards fell right into the trap set up by the Brooklyn defense.This is the first team that played defense the way they played it, the coach observed after the game. They did a great job of taking away the paint.The Suns fired up 107 shots, most in the NBA this season. Almost one-third of them (33) were 3-pointers, probably not a good idea for a team thats shot 29.4 percent from beyond the arc this season, the third-lowest figure in the league.One reason the Suns have found themselves shooting more from the perimeter of late has been the absence of center Tyson Chandler, who has missed the last three games following the death of his mother.The Suns are hoping to get Chandler back for Wednesdays game at Denver.

After slipping from the summit during the week, the Gunners overcame struggling Crystal Palace 2-0 on Sunday thanks to Alex Oxlade-Chamberlains second-half brace. https://www.eaglessportsgoods.com/Womens-Seth-Joyner-Inverted-Jersey/ . Giroud, who wasnt in the starting lineup for two matches after allegations about his private life and a decline in form, scored twice in the first half. Tomas Rosickys chip made it 3-0 before half time at Emirates Stadium, while defender Laurent Koscielny scored an unmarked header in the second half.

Harold Carmichael Womens Jersey . -- Playing time has been limited for Maxim Tissot this season, so the Montreal Impact defender made the most of his first scoring opportunity on Saturday. NEW ORLEANS -- Broncos safety Darian Stewart was in the right place at the right time, as Denver defenders often seem to be.Shutting down quarterback Drew Brees for four quarters was always going to be a tall order, particularly with starting quarterback Aqib Talib and starting defensive end Derek Wolfe injured. Still, Denvers dynamic defense produced four pivotal turnovers in a wild 25-23 victory over the previously surging Saints on Sunday.The Saints offense is real tough and we knew that coming in, said Stewart, who had two interceptions and a fumble recovery . We had a lot of guys out injured, which only made the challenge more difficult. But we had a lot of guys who stepped in and made contributions. That was huge.The game ultimately was decided in the unlikeliest of ways. Denver rookie Justin Simmons blocked a potential go-ahead, extra-point kick by New Orleans Wil Lutz, and rookie teammate Will Parks grabbed the loose ball, returning it 84 yards for a defensive 2-point conversion with 1:28 left in the game.Yet New Orleans might never have relinquished its 17-10, second-half lead if not for two fumbles forced by Denvers defense.The Broncos, who entered the game with the top-rated pass defense in the NFL, intercepted Brees twice in the first half.Stewart made his first interception by anticipating Brees throw down the left sideline and cutting in front of intended target Travaris Cadet at the Denver 9-yard line. The second came when Stewart snagged a pass ripped from rookie receiver Michael Thomas grasp by defensive back Bradley Roby.In the fourth quarter, Stewart once again found a ball landing in his lap when Roby punched the ball away from Thomas after a reception over the middle.Thats a play we work on, Roby said of his strip. In that situation, you have to say to yourself, `Youve got to go for the ball.Denver converted that turnover into Demaryius Thomas game-tying touchdown.Then came defensive end Jared Cricks crushing tackle of Thomas that forced another fumble, recovered by T.J. Ward to set up a field goal which put Denver ahead 23-17 with just under 3 minutes left.Those plays helped Denver overcome Brees NFL-record 56th game with at least 300 yards and three TDs passing.The four turnovers, they cost us the game, Brees said. It made it a lot closer than it probably should have been.Heres what else stood out in Denvers victory over the Saints:PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT: Simmons said Denver had picked up on some of the Saints place-kicking tendencies and figured they might be able to block a kick by having a player hurdle the offensive line.dddddddddddd Simmons said the Broncos worked on the play, called Leaper, all week.Its something you work on all the time, Denver coach Gary Kubiak said. Its risky to do because if you touch somebody, its a penalty. There are certain situations in a game where you say it is worth the risk, and this was one of them.ELITE BREES: Brees passed for 303 yards with touchdowns on a 32-yard pass to Brandin Cooks , as well as 3- and 5-yard tosses to Willie Snead. He did it against a Broncos defense that entered the game allowing just 183.3 yards passing per game. Who knows what kind of numbers Brees might have had it three drives werent stalled by turnovers in which the ball was knocked from Michael Thomas hands?MIXED BAG: The Broncos are still living with quarterback Trevor Siemians rookie mistakes. He threw two interceptions and didnt seem to see cornerback Sterling Moore jumping the route on the first or Kenny Vaccaro standing right in the balls path on the second. He also took six sacks. But he made a number of clutch throws -- not just on his TD passes of 14 yards to Jordan Taylor and 2 yards to Demaryius Thomas. He also completed a slew of drive-extending throws and the Broncos converted 11 of 19 third downs.BETTER BLOCKING: Two of Denvers best pass rushers -- Von Miller and DeMarcus Ware -- were held without a sack by a Saints offensive line that was missing starting left tackle Terron Armstead. Andrus Peat took over for Armstead, sliding over from left guard, and Senio Kelemete took Peats guard spot. Denver, which came in with 28 sacks, managed just one on Brees, by linebacker Shaquil Barrett.QB PRESSURE: New Orleans ramped up its pass rush in a big way. The Saints had 11 sacks in their first eight games, but six different defenders got a sack apiece on Siemian: rookie defensive tackle Sheldon Rankins, defensive tackle Nick Fairley, end Cameron Jordan, safety Kenny Vaccaro and linebackers Dannell Ellerbe and Craig Robertson.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
