STANFORD, Calif. Thomas Welsh Nuggets Jersey . -- Top-ranked Serena Williams won in her first match since defaulting in a doubles match with sister Venus at Wimbledon, beating Karolina Pliskova 7-5, 6-2 on Wednesday in the second round of the Bank of the West Classic. At Wimbledon, Williams tried to play through a viral infection that caused her to lose her equilibrium during the doubles match. On Wednesday night, encouraged by a large crowd, Williams fought through a tough first set before she found her legs and took control of the match with a big second set. "I thought I played well," Williams said. "Im on the right path, Im excited and Im looking forward to my next match." In the quarterfinals, Williams will meet the winner of Thursdays match between fifth-seeded Ana Ivanovic and U.S. qualifier Carol Zhao. Williams casually deflected questions about her health, preferring to bring the conversation into the present. "Im still taking it a match at a time," she said. "It worked out. I was feeling fine. I made some silly errors early because I was not on my toes enough." Pliskova managed to hold her serve most of the first set but did not have an answer once Williams found her own serve. "I knew shes a player that is tough to break so it was important to me to be super focused on my serve," Williams said. "She served well and I tried to hang in there and get some break points." She finally managed to reach break point in the 12th game and took control from there. She was successful on all three break points she had. Williams took some time off after Wimbledon and vacationed in Croatia before returning to the U.S. for the hardcourt season. She said she has been working hard in preparation for a run at the U.S. Open. Earlier, Varvara Lepchenko beat second-seeded Angieszka Radwanska 6-3, 3-6, 6-4 to advance to the quarterfinals. Lepchenko beat the fifth-ranked Radwanska for the first time in six meetings, edging a top-10 player for only the third time in 24 matches. Radwanska, the runner-up last year, became the highest seeded player to fall in the tournament. The match was good," Radwanska said. "I wasnt serving enough." Lepchenko will face Sachia Vickery, the American qualifier who beat Monica Puig 6-7 (4), 6-2, 6-1 to reach her first career WTA Tour quarterfinal. Vickery also won two straight in the main draw for the first time. Her only previous victory came at last years U.S. Open in her WTA main draw debut. Also, eighth-seeded Andrea Petkovic beat teenage qualifier Naomi Osaka, 6-2, 6-2. Petkovic will next meet the winner of Thursday nights match between Venus Williams and Victoria Azarenka. "It was so weird," Petkovic said. "Shes 16 and obviously very talented. If I played solid I knew I had a good shot." Allen Iverson Jersey . "It feels good, Ive never had one before, not even in College," Hagelin said after the Rangers outgunned the Jets 4-2, behind some solid goaltending from Henrik Lundqvist following a pretty wide open first period.

Granada goalkeeper Roberto Fernandez saved Morenos first two headers from corner kicks taken by Sergio Garcia, but the defender beat him on his third try after Garcia found Moreno unmarked at the near post in the 78th minute. http://www.nuggetsproshop.com/Michael-Porter-Nuggets-Jersey/ .Y. -- AJ Allmendingers journey is almost complete.MIAMI - Still just three games into the post-LeBron era in Miami, Chris Bosh has already heard the comparisons. Bosh was the man in Toronto for the better part of seven seasons before signing up to play third wheel on a Heat team that would go on to win two championships in four years. Now, the former Raptor finds himself in a familiar situation. Thrust into the lead role following James return to Cleveland - and in light of Dwyane Wades deteriorating youth - Bosh is finally back in the spotlight after leaving it in Toronto. It must feel like 2009 all over again? 2009? No, it feels like 2014, Bosh insisted. Its a different situation, for the obvious reasons, with this team, he continued, dismissing the comparison. But no. I know everybody wants to look back on the past but its not about that. I feel like Im a much better player, a much better leader. And he is. Bosh is a different player than he was when he left Toronto. One thing that hasnt changed is the All-Star forwards dominance over his former team since that fateful summer in 2010 when he packed his bags and moved to South Beach. Even without James, Miami hasnt missed a beat to begin the young season and had little trouble disposing of the Raptors Sunday, defeating them for a 16th straight time. Im aware of it, admitted Bosh, who has never lost to Toronto. Everybodys aware of it. The Raptors were certainly aware of it. Its definitely on my mind, said DeMar DeRozan before the game - a teammate of Boshs in Toronto when the Raptors last toppled Miami, Jan. 27, 2010 - hes never won in South Beach. So, I think we definitely need to go in there and get this win, just use it as more motivation for us. For the bulk of Sundays loss - their first of the young season - DeRozan looked to be the only motivated Raptor. Playing in the second night of a back-to-back set, the Raptors left their defence in Orlando. Miami looked like the Heat of old, moving the ball at a frenetic pace and shooting the lights out. By halftime they had scored 64 points on 59 per cent shooting. The Raptors, playing without the injured Amir Johnson, had pulled down just 10 rebounds in 24 minutes. It caught up with us, Dwane Casey said following his teams 107-102 loss. We’ve got to set the tone and play with a sense of desperation in the first half and that’s what we didn’t do. It finally caught up with us. We’re scoring, we’re getting opportunities to score, we get to the free throw line 39 times, he continued. Offence is not an issue, defence is our issue. We have to decide collectively to guard people. The final score is misleading. The Raptors were in it until the final moments, but hardly by their own doing. They were out-rebounded 43-28 and missed 15 of their 39 free throws. Despite scoring 102 points they recorded jjust 11 assists. Jarred Vanderbilt Nuggets Jersey. It was the same old against a Miami team that may not have regressed as much as most expected them to after losing the NBAs greatest player. We needed that, said DeRozan after scoring 30 points in a game he referred to as a wake-up call. [Expletive], they’re a good team still. We still had a chance and this would have been a perfect game for Amir. You know, the rebounding, he gets a lot of the dirty rebounds that we missed tonight. Johnson was a late scratch after tweaking his troublesome left ankle early in Saturdays win over the Magic. With Patrick Patterson - his understudy - struggling, the Raptors could have used his defensive prowess against the versatile Bosh. Bosh paced his team for the third game in a row, all wins, to begin the season, scoring 21 points to go along with his 11 boards. The 12-year vet opted to return to Miami during the summer, turning down a sizeable offer from the Rockets. He says his decision had little to do with being the man. He believes they still have a contender in Miami and while that can be debated, the early returns suggest he may be on to something. After having success in the past four years, twice, it kind of changes your perspective about things, said Bosh, the Raptors all-time scoring leader. You hold things more important. You know whats more important. Having your team or anything like that, thats ego driven. Its not as important. So for me its really just about winning ball games. Thats what it comes down to. And if I can have a major responsibility and contribute to that than thats what I strive for. Rumblings of Miamis demise may in fact be premature. At least on Sunday, Wade looked like the player of old - active, dynamic and all over the floor, he flirted with a triple-double, recording 19 points, 11 rebounds and seven assists in the second night of a back-to-back. [As] soon as we can move on from the questions about last year, the sooner I can move on, man, he said before the game, taking issue with a reporter, inquiring about his status in the game after playing Saturday night. Im playing in the game. Its the only way I can approach it. They were both that guy and now it’s back to them being that guy and not worrying about LeBron or that situation, DeRozan said. Both of them have been the man before and theyre doing it again. The takeaway for the Raptors: They still have some work to do. Through three games we havent seen them at their best. As for their winless streak against Bosh and the Heat, theyll have to hear about it for a while longer. “It’s not been fun at all but what do we have? Three more shots at them? DeRozan asked. They actually see them twice more this season. We have to take advantage of those. It was a good test for us tonight. ' ' '
