LIVERPOOL, England (AP) — Roberto Firmino scored an 87th-minute equalizer to put a dent in Arsenal’s Premier League title challenge and earn a 2-2 draw for Liverpool on Sunday. The Brazilian forward rose at the far post to complete a rousing comeback from the Merseyside club after Arsenal had raced to a two-goal lead at Anfield. Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Jesus had put the league leaders in control. But Mohamed Salah reduced the deficit before halftime and then missed a penalty after the break. With Arsenal looking set to extend its lead at the top to eight points over Manchester City, Firmino struck what could be a decisive goal in the title race. It had all been going so well for the visitors, with Martinelli firing them ahead in the eighth minute when capitalizing on a mistake from Virgil van Dijk. The forward raced through on goal after Van Dijk’s attempted clearance fell straight into his path and slipped a low shot past Alisson. Arsenal went 2-0 ahead in the 28th thr...

That’s beautiful. And that’s why it made it all so easy, just to sacrifice everything.”And when he was done, Heat center Bam Adebayo went out to interrupt the proceedings — and give Haslem his gift, a Heat-themed rocking chair.“There you go man, take your seat,” Adebayo said. Haslem eventually complied.The big moment of Haslem actually checking in — an ovation began to build as soon as he headed to the scorer’s table...

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 19:25:40 GMT

Cam Thomas is still a bucket — and the Nets are going have their hands full in their first-round playoff series against the Philadelphia 76ers.Those are the two takeaways from Brooklyn’s 134-105 loss to the Sixers in Sunday’s season finale, a game both teams opted to rest their starters and key rotation players.Thomas erupted for 46 points on 16-of-29 shooting from the field in a scintillating display of his isolation scoring abilities. He became the fifth player in Nets franchise history with four or more 40-point games in a season, with the other three coming in the wake of Kyrie Irving’s midseason trade request.Yet the depleted Nets remained a class below the depleted 76ers in a foreshadowing of what’s to come in the first round of the playoffs.Philadelphia sat its entire starting five — Joel Embiid, James Harden, Tobias Harris, Tyrese Maxey and P.J. Tucker — plus sixth man De’Anthony Melton against the Nets. Head coach Jacque Vaugh...

Observations and other notes of interest from Sunday ‘s 123-110 victory over the Orlando Magic:– It was quite the juxtaposition.– The last regular-season game in the building for Udonis Haslem.– And the first game with the building branded as the Kaseya Center.– Haslem looked perfectly in place.– The branding?

From day one since becoming the head coach of the Celtics, Joe Mazzulla has preached and stressed the value of the 3-pointer.“I love 3-pointers,” Mazzulla said after a win over the Wizards in October. “I like math.”As Sunday’s regular-season finale showed, that message has been received loud and clear all season long.Even without most of their starters and regulars on Sunday, Mazzulla’s ideal shot profile was on full display at TD Garden, where the Celtics let it fly from everywhere. Payton Pritchard hit a career-high nine 3-pointers, Sam Hauser made a career-best eight triples and Mike Muscala added four more as the Celtics drained 25 3-pointers – two off tying the franchise record – in their 120-114 victory over the Hawks.Hauser scored 26 points, Muscala had 27 and Pritchard finished with his first career triple-double with 30 points, 13 rebounds and 11 assists.
