NEW YORK (AP) — The New York Rangers got just the offensive lift they were looking for when they pulled off a big trade with the Columbus Blue Jackets.
No, not the deal that brought Rick Nash to Broadway, but the key move just before the trade deadline that sent Marian Gaborik to Columbus for a package of players that included Derick Brassard.
Nash recorded his first playoff point with the Rangers when he set up Derek Stepan for the winning goal of...
SAN ANTONIO (AP) — All it took was one shot from Manu Ginobili to undo Stephen Curry's monstrous performance.
Ginobili hit a 3-pointer from the left wing with 1.2 seconds left in the second overtime Monday night to lift the San Antonio Spurs to a 129-127 win over the Golden State Warriors and Curry, who put up 44 points in the opener of the Western Conference semifinals.
Ginobili's shot and an intense defensive effort in the fourth quarter turned...
MIAMI (AP) — Only one team has held the Miami Heat below 90 points on their home floor this season. That would be the Chicago Bulls, and for good measure, they've now done it twice.
So by now, it's obvious: If there's a team in the NBA that has Miami's number, it has to be the Bulls.
Nate Robinson scored 27 points and dominated in the final minutes — after needing 10 stitches to sew up his lip — while Jimmy Butler added 21 points and a career high-...
NEW DELHI (AP) — Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan jokes that he will wear a mask and sneak into a Mumbai stadium to watch his cricket team play in the Indian Premier League.
Khan was banned from the stadium for five years in 2012 after he was involved in a scuffle with security.
He asked reporters Monday, "I don't want to sound politically incorrect, but what will they do if I enter the stadium? Shoot me?"
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Cliff Lee has established quite a comfort zone in the energized confines of pitcher-friendly AT&T Park. He found the strike zone again Monday, outpitching a fellow southpaw who has been rather solid himself on this mound: Madison Bumgarner.
Lee shut down the Giants once again with eight strong innings in the ballpark where he thrives, Michael Young hit a two-run double among his three hits, and the Phillies stopped San Francisco's season-best six...
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Trevor Cahill drove in Arizona's first two runs with his first major league triple, and the Diamondbacks sent the Los Angeles Dodgers to their fifth straight loss, 9-2 on Monday night.
Cahill (2-3) allowed two runs and six hits in seven innings, improving to 5-0 with a 2.10 ERA in eight starts against the Dodgers.
Chris Capuano (0-2) gave up six runs — five earned — and eight hits in four-plus innings as Los Angeles dropped to a...
SAN ANTONIO (AP) — Manu Ginobili's play in the final 50 seconds was almost too much for Gregg Popovich to handle. Then again, the Spurs' coach is used to his veteran guard's free-wheeling style.
Ginobili's 3-pointer from the wing with 1.2 seconds left in double overtime lifted the San Antonio Spurs to a thrilling 129-127 victory Monday night over the Golden State Warriors and Stephen Curry, who had 44 points in the opener of the Western Conference semifinals....

Paul Goldschmidt and Cody Ross hit consecutive homers in the fourth after a glaring error by left fielder Carl Crawford, helping Arizona to just its second win in the last seven games.
