WASHINGTON - First, Chris Paul.
Bruno Jersey . Then Derrick Rose. John Wall has erased a pair of major o-fers against two of
the top point guards in the NBA.Wall beat Rose head-to-head for the first time
Friday night, getting 16 points and 12 assists in a 102-86 win over the Chicago
Bulls.The leader in All-Star votes among Eastern Conference guards snapped his
0-5 record when both he and Rose are on the court. It hasnt happened often
because both have had serious injury problems. But Wall was definitely keeping
track — just as he was last month when he ended his 0-6 history against Paul in
a win over the Los Angeles Clippers.Didnt I finally beat Chris and Derrick this
year? Wall said with a smile. Its a good year. Its a good start. Its finally
good to beat them.Rose was the No. 1 overall pick in the NBA draft in 2008, and
Wall had the same honour two years later. The Wizards beat the Bulls in five
games in a contentious first-round playoff series last year, which Rose missed
because of a lengthy recovery from knee surgery.You can tell he worked on his
game, Rose said. Tonight, they jumped on us. It wasnt about the matchup, I would
say. They jumped on us pretty quick from the beginning.The Bulls missed 20 of
their first 24 shots and trailed 30-10 before Tony Snells 3-pointer in the final
second of the first quarter. It was Chicagos worst output in an opening period
this season.Rose has been in a horrid shooting slump — 25.5 per cent over his
previous six games — and he went 8 for 19 and scored 19 points Friday night.Rose
shook his head emphatically — as if to say No Way! — after blocking Walls
attempt at a buzzer-beating jumper at the end of the first half. It would have
carried more meaning if the Bulls werent trailing by 17 at the time following a
Wall-led run.Rose gets his chance to start a new Wall streak in Chicago next
week.We know theyre going to hold this in their head, Wall said, because we play
them again Wednesday.SCARY SCENE: In the fourth quarter, with the Bulls trailing
by 10 and 3 minutes to play, Aaron Brooks knocked Wall hard to the floor with a
high hit just as Wall was running to catch a long outlet pass — the type of play
that draws a sure-fire 15-yard penalty in the NFL. Officials reviewed the video
and decided not to upgrade the foul to a flagrant.CHICAGOS MINI-SLUMP: The Bulls
have lost back-to-back games for the first time since late November. They were
thumped by 20 points at home on Wednesday by the Utah Jazz.The way were playing
is bothersome, its concerning, coach Tom Thibodeau said. But you get into things
together, and weve got to get out of things together.PUSH AND SHOVE: No one was
expecting a peaceful game, given the bad blood lingering from last years
playoffs and a nasty preseason game this season. It was likely remarkable that
the only technical went to Chicagos Joakim Noah for kicking the ball.The NBA is
about people having big tempers and ego. Me and Nene, we definitely have egos
and tempers, Wizards centre Marcin Gortat said. We aint going to let anyone come
in here and punk us like that. ... We were waiting for this game.TIP-INSBulls: F
Mike Dunleavy, who missed his fourth straight game with a right ankle injury,
said he will have an MRI on Saturday.Wizards: Gortat had 21 points and 13
rebounds for the Wizards, who have won three straight and now have a better
record than the Bulls. ... F Kevin Seraphin, who represents France in
international competitions, wore a dark T-shirt with the words Je Suis Charlie
during warmups. Noah, whose father is former French tennis champion Yannick
Noah, gave Seraphin an approving chest-tap at midcourt. The slogan has become a
worldwide rally cry to show solidarity with Charlie Hebdo, a Paris weekly
newspaper where 12 people were killed Wednesday in a terrorist attack.UP

Sunday.___Follow Joseph White on Twitter: http://twitter.com/JGWhiteAP

Jersey . I kept my eyes focused up on the camera during each approach. I
just tried to stay focused on my form, as I didnt know what the ball reaction
was. I was quite emotional at the end. I did not actually see any of the shots
in the game until I got home and watched the video.
Nolito Spain
Jersey . They probably ruined Tim Duncans hopes of a career change,
though. Duncan wants to be a point guard, coach Gregg Popovich revealed
Saturday, a wish that wont be granted.
http://www.soccerspainauthority.com/jordi-alba-spain-jersey/ . The $145.7-million Tim Hortons Field was slated to open this month, a year
before it was to host all 32 mens and womens soccer competitions. The delay has
forced the Hamilton Tiger-Cats football team to use a smaller facility for the
first two home games of the season.ROME - Italy remained perfect without Mario
Balotelli. The Netherlands, meanwhile, still appears to be in a post-World Cup
slump.Giorgio Chiellini accounted for all three goals in Italys 2-1 win over
Azerbaijan in European Championship qualifying Friday and World Cup semifinalist
Netherlands laboured to a surprisingly hard-earned 3-1 victory over 10-man
Kazakhstan.Also, World Cup quarterfinalist Belgium held target practice for a
6-0 victory over tiny Andorra.Elsewhere, Croatia won 1-0 at Bulgaria and is
level with Italy atop Group H.The Czech Republic beat Turkey 2-1 in Istanbul and
Iceland won 3-0 in Latvia to remain atop Group A.Wales took the Group B lead by
one point over Cyprus, Israel and Belgium after holding Bosnia-Herzegovina to a
0-0 draw in Cardiff.The top two finishers from the nine groups qualify
automatically. The best third-placed team also qualifies automatically, and the
other eight can qualify through a playoff.The second batch of Euro 2016
qualifiers continues through Tuesday.___GROUP ADefender Renat Abdulin gave
127th-ranked Kazakhstan a shock lead at the Amsterdam Arena with a powerful
17th-minute header from a poorly-defended corner and the Netherlands had an
anxious wait until the 62nd minute when substitute Klaas Jan Huntelaar
levelled.A deflected 82nd-minute shot by Ibrahim Afellay, who started his first
international in nearly two years, put the Dutch ahead before Robin van Persies
penalty in the last minute of regulation time secured the three points and coach
Guus Hiddinks first win in three matches since taking over from Louis van Gaal
after the World Cup.In the end, it was a good result, said Van Persie.In
Istanbul, Umut Bulut gave Turkey the lead in the eighth minute but defender
Tomas Sivok levelled seven minutes later when he headed in a corner. Borek
Dockal gave the Czechs victory with a neat finish just before the hour
mark.Latvia held Iceland goalless for more than an hour before Gylfi Sigurdsson
opened the scorinng in the 66th and Aron Gunnarsson and substitute Rurik
Gislason completed the comfortable victory.
Isco Spain
Jersey. ___GROUP BGroup B is wide open after Fridays matches with Wales
taking the lead with four points from two games after a tough goalless draw at
home against Bosnia-Herzegovina. Belgium and Israel both opened their campaign
with victories to join Cyprus on three points.Kevin De Bruyne and Dries Mertens
scored two goals each for Belgium and Divock Origi and Nacer Chadli added the
rest to give the victory a special World Cup flavour since most of the scorers
were instrumental in Brazil.We have had a good start and we are on our way,
Origi said before the Red Devils departed for Bosnia for their second game on
Monday.Israel also had a successful start, beating Cyprus in Nicosia 2-1 with
goals from Omer Damari and Tal Ben Haim.___GROUP HWith Balotelli struggling to
find his form since transferring to Liverpool a€” failing to score in five
English Premier League appearances a€” new Italy coach Antonio left him off the
squad again.While Ciro Immobile and Simone Zaza provided the scoring last month,
it was all Chiellini this time.In Palermo, Azerbaijan defended with 10 men and
Italy had trouble creating opportunities until Chiellini took advantage of an
error by the goalkeeper to give the Azzurri the lead in the 44th.Chiellini then
scored into his own net in the 76th as he attempted to defend a corner kick but
he made up for his error by heading in again in the 82nd.In good and bad I did
it all, said Chiellini, the victim of Luis Suarezs bite at the World Cup. But
the important thing is we came out on top.In Bulgaria, Nikolay Bodurov scored an
own goal for Croatia in the 36th.Norway, which won 3-0 at Malta, got two goals
from Blackburn forward Joshua King, who also set up the opening score from Mats
Moller Daehli.Italy beat Norway in its opening qualifier and was also a winner
over the Netherlands in a friendly to open Contes tenure.
