McConnell had a career-high 19 points
Добавлено: Пт авг 10, 2018 10:59 amItalian skier Matteo Marsaglia took advantage of changing weather conditions Thursday to post the fastest time in final training ahead of the classic men’s World Cup downhill on the Streif course.
Wearing bib No. 54 Authentic Kody Clark Jersey , Marsaglia had better visibility than the early starters as clouds were moving. He edged Brice Roger of France by 0.01 seconds and Vincent Kriechmayr of Austria by 0.16 after a shortened run.
”I am quite surprised,” said Marsaglia, who returned this season from a 21-month injury break.
The 32-year-old Italian hurt his hip in a super-G crash on the Olympic hill in South Korea in February 2016. Working on his comeback, he ruptured his ACL in offseason training in Chile seven months later.
”Now I restart slowly, the feeling is coming back,” said Marsaglia Authentic Riley Sutter Jersey , who failed to score World Cup points in his seven races this season.
He skipped the Wengen downhill last week and competed on the Europa Cup circuit in order to find his rhythm again.
The traditional Hahnenkamm races open with a super-G on Friday, followed by the penultimate downhill ahead of the Pyeongchang Olympics on Saturday. A slalom concludes the event on Sunday.
Jared Goldberg of the United States was 0.26 seconds behind Marsaglia in fourth place. Aksel Lund Svindal of Norway, who leads the downhill standings, was 0.52 seconds behind in 10th. Downhill world champion Beat Feuz of Switzerland and Olympic champion Matthias Mayer of Austria finished outside the top 30.
To protect the bottom part of the course after overnight snowfall, racers had to stop before the Hausbergkante, which leads to the steep finish section Brian O'Neill Color Rush Jersey , reducing run times by half a minute.
Training on the entire course was held Tuesday, when Italian racer Christof Innerhofer was the fastest.
Heavy snow on Wednesday changed the characteristics of the Streif, regarded one of the most dangerous courses on the World Cup with an 85-percent grade shortly after the start and several far jumps and sharp turns.
On some sections in Tuesday’s training, racers were more than 10 kph faster than usual while approaching the jumps, sending them not only longer but also higher up in the air.
Several racers, including Svindal and Feuz http://www.broncosauthorizedshops.com/authentic-daesean-hamilton-jersey , complained about it, and 2014 Streif winner Hannes Reichelt said he felt ”like a ski jumper.” They forced organizers to adapt the critical spots and lower the jumps at the Mausefalle and the Alte Schneise.
”Everyone was surprised by the high speed in the first training. We couldn’t foresee that,” FIS race director Markus Waldner said.
As fresh snow made the course slower for Thursday’s session, the jumps were no longer a problem.
Kriechmayr, who was the fastest before the skies cleared, said the training wasn’t a good indicator for Saturday’s race.
”I took more risks than most others http://www.panthersauthorizedshops.com/authentic-donte-jackson-jersey , wanted to go the limit,” the Austrian said. ”But we only used half of the course today and races here are usually decided at the bottom.”
LeBron James sent Toronto into summer vacation for the third straight season as the Cleveland Cavaliers completed a series sweep of the Raptors with a 128-93 win in Game 4 on Monday night to advance to the Eastern Conference finals.
James finished with 29 points, 11 assists and spent some of the final 7:38 dancing near the bench during Cleveland’s 10th straight playoff win over Toronto, which changed its system, its roster and its approach but still can’t beat the game’s best player.
Kevin Love added 23 points and J.R. Smith 15 for the Cavs, who can now rest while waiting for the Boston-Philadelphia semifinal series to end.
Jonas Valanciunas scored 18 and Kyle Lowry had 10 assists to lead the exasperated Raptors. Toronto’s frustration hit its peak late in the third when All-Star DeMar DeRozan was ejected for a flagrant foul.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) – T.J. McConnell turned a surprise start into the save of the season and Dario Saric scored 25 points to help the 76ers stave off elimination in a win over the Celtics in Game 4.
The Sixers still face daunting odds headed into Game 5 and trailing 3-1 in the Eastern Conference semifinals: No NBA team has ever won a series down 3-0.
McConnell had a career-high 19 points, seven rebounds and five assists in only his second start of the season and meshed well in the backcourt with Ben Simmons. The crowd chanted ”TJ! TJ!” each time he touched the ball in the fourth and proved why he has been so valuable even as bigger stars have sliced his playing time.
He was just what coach Brett Brown needed in a must-win game.
With NBA teams down 3-0 having lost all 129 series, the Sixers may need more than spirit to pull off this stunner.
Jayson Tatum led the Celtics with 20 points and Marcus Morris had 17.
