(SportsNetwork. Trey Burton Jersey .com) - Will Klay Thompson have enough in the tank when the Golden State Warriors host the Boston Celtics Sunday at Oracle Arena? Coming off his record showing in Fridays 126-101 victory over the Sacramento Kings, Thompson goes for an encore performance in the continuation of a five- game homestand. Thompson set an NBA record for points in a quarter with 37 in the third stanza, burying nine 3-pointers and making all 13 of his shots. Thompson finished with a career-high 52 points on 16-of-25 shooting, including an 11-of-15 clip from downtown. They just kept wanting to see the show. Thats what they kept telling me, Thompson said of his teammates. The sharp-shooting Thompson surpassed the 33-point mark set by George Gervin in 1978 and matched by Carmelo Anthony in 2008 for the most points in a quarter. Marreese Speights added 19 points off the bench and Stephen Curry finished with 10 and 11 assists for the Warriors, who extended their franchise-record home winning streak to 18 games. Golden State recorded a 41-22 scoring advantage during the historic this quarter and improved to 20-1 at home. The Warriors, who lead the league with 111.1 points per game, are 3-0 on the homestand and have won 12 of their last 13 games overall. They will close the residency Tuesday versus the Chicago Bulls. Boston has won two in a row following a three-game slide and will continue its six-game western sojourn Sunday night in a tough arena. The Celtics edged the Denver Nuggets, 100-99, Friday at the Pepsi Center and were led by Avery Bradleys go-ahead 3-pointer with 1:24 left in the game. He missed one last night that he thought he should have made. He made up for it tonight, said Celtics head coach Brad Stevens. Bradley posted 18 points, Brandon Bass netted 17 and Jared Sullinger registered 14 points for the Celtics, who were coming off a last-second win over the Portland Trail Blazers and shot 49.3 percent. Evan Turner, who hit the game-winning basket in Portland, scored 10 points against the Nuggets. The Celtics are 6-13 on the road and still have visits to Utah and Minnesota remaining on the trek. Boston and Golden State will meet again March 1 in Beantown. The Warriors took both matchups from the Celtics last season and are 3-1 in the last four games in this series. Golden State has won 14 of the last 18 at home versus Boston. Timmy Jernigan Jersey . The stakes were higher, the competition more fierce and the atmosphere was that of a playoff game - something the young, upstart Raptors have five weeks to better prepare themselves for or the result will be eerily similar. Chance Warmack Jersey . The No. 5 Aztecs held Burton, the Mountain Wests leading scorer, to 11 points, 10 below his average, in beating the Wolf Pack 73-58 on Saturday night.MONTREAL - If its not a must-win game, the Montreal Impacts home opener is certainly one they would very much like to win. After opening the Major League Soccer season with two tight losses on the road, the Impact will play host to the Seattle Sounders before more than 25,000 at Olympic Stadium on Saturday afternoon. It will be a first home game for new coach Frank Klopas, the first time Brossard, Que., native Patrice Bernier will play at home as team captain, and the last that star striker Marco Di Vaio will sit out from the three-game suspension he got for wading into a skirmish in the playoffs last October. "Its the third game of the season, but we need to start getting some points," former Chicago Fire boss Klopas said this week. "Its good to be home. "We definitely felt that we should have picked up some points on the road, but thats the game." The Impact opened the season March 8 with a 3-2 loss in Dallas marked by a harsh penalty awarded to the home team. They followed a week later with a 1-0 defeat in Houston. There was a feeling the team played better in the second game — that the defence was sharper, that better chances were created and that Di Vaios replacement Andrew Wenger looked more comfortable up front. "We have some momentum even if were 0-2," said Bernier, who replaced the departed Davy Arnaud as captain. "Its not like we played bad and got cleaned out. "We felt we progressed last game from the first game and now were coming home. We have to defend our home and weve been very good at home the last two years. This is a game that could send us in the right direction and give us a positive boost." They are up against a Seattle side (1-1-0) with a formidable attack, but which is coming off a 2-1 loss at home to Toronto FC on former Tottenham striker Jermain Defoes pair of first-half goals. The Sounders, old foes of the Impact from their A-League and United Soccer League days, have not beaten Montreal in MLS play. The Impact won 4-1 in Montreal in 2012 and opened the 2013 campaign with a 1-0 win in Seattle. But Seattle has been among the better away sides in MLS, with a 29-28-24 road record since they entered the league in 2009. Herman Edwards Jersey. Di Vaio and midfielder Andres Romero, both with three game suspensions, wont see action until a March 29 game in Philadelphia. In Di Vaios absence, winger Justin Mapp and attacking midfielder Felipe Martins have led the offence. The veteran Mapp was among their best players last season, but Felipe looks to have rebounded from a mediocre campaign and is looking more like the energetic playmaker he was as a rookie in 2012. He has yet to score, but leads the team with eight shots. "I had a few chances," he said. "But the hardest thing is to create chances and were doing that. "The only thing is we have to put it in the net, but that is going to come. Its not after one or two games you have to figure out whats going on. Its just soccer, no? One time a goal goes in and after that it comes natural." Klopas likes what hes seen of the Brazilian. "He missed the beginning of the season with injury last year and that was one reason his fitness level and sharpness werent the same," the coach said. "Hes a guy that sometimes doesnt get the points, but he helps the team in so many ways without the ball, with his work rate and stuff like that. "Ive been very pleased with him and I know he has a lot more room to grow." Bernier, coming off knee surgery, missed the season opener but got in 72 minutes in Houston. The team is still waiting for Bernier, Felipe and designated player Hernan Bernardello to all be at peak form to see what the centre of their midfield can do. Bernardello was injured shortly after signing last summer. The Impact are to play their first three home games at the Big O before moving outdoors to Saputo Stadium. Klopas coached Chicago against the Impact in Montreals first MLS game at Olympic Stadium in 2012, a 1-1 draw. "Its amazing that two years ago I was on the opposite side in the first game here, with a tremendous atmosphere," he said. "I hope its the same, only now theyre cheering for me and our team." Cheap Authentic Jerseys Cheap Jerseys China Wholesale Jerseys China Jerseys NFL Cheap Stitched Jerseys NFL Jerseys Cheap Wholesale Jerseys 2019 ' ' '
