1. The San Jose Earthquakes wrapped up a friendly against Cruz Azul FC in a scoreless draw last Saturday. What are your three takeaways from the match?

Headline Sports podcast with London Marq: Kings open season hosting Jazz tonight; 49ers’ loss simply was a heartbreaker; Expect Astros-Sox to go the distance

On the Headline Sports podcast with London:

#1 London will be covering the Sacramento Kings opener at Golden 1 Center as the Kings host the Utah Jazz. London talks about all the excitement surrounding opening night.

#2 The San Francisco 49ers lost a crucial close game to the Green Bay Packers 33-30 in a game that went right down to the wire. Is this game viewed as an improvement game for San Francisco?

#3 It’s a series that has gone back and forth that saw the Red Sox win game one and the Astros in game two and now the Sox in game three. There’s no doubt the two best teams in the American League battling in the ALCS.

#4 With the Golden State Warriors losing four of their five preseason games, any indication that this Warriors team is getting older slowing down and show signs of fatigue or they just didn’t show all their cards in the preseason? Looks like they answered that question with a big win over the OKC Thunder on Tuesday night.

#5 The Oakland Raiders’ loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday in London was one of the low points of this season. With the team at 1-5, is this team getting away from head coach Jon Gruden?

Warriors start season with win over OKC Thunder 108-100

By Jerry Feitelberg

OAKLAND — The Golden State Warriors, after unfurling their sixth NBA Championship banner and receiving their rings, started their quest for the third championship in a row and fourth in five seasons with a win over the Oklahoma City Thunder 108-100 at Oracle Arena on Tuesday night. It was not easy as both the Warriors and Thunder were not in mid-season form. Both teams play looked ragged at times, but the Warriors played defense down the stretch to win the game.

The Warriors did get off to a good start in the first quarter as they outscored the Thunder 31-23. Steph Curry, Kevin Durant, and Klay Thompson looked sharp. Things changed a bit in the second period, but the Warriors outscored the Thunder by two to finish the first half with a 10-point lead, 57-47. Curry finished the half with 19 points, and he made five 3-point shots in six attempts. Durant had 15, and Thompson added 10. Draymond Green made just one bucket good for 2 points, but he showed his defensive prowess with nine rebounds and five assists in the first half. Dennis Schroder, a former Atlanta Hawk, led the Thunder with 12 points. Steve Adams had nine, and Paul George kicked in with six.

The Warriors, who owned the third quarter last season, struggled as the Thunder fought their way back into the game. OKC started the period with a 22-9 run and took the lead 67-66. From that point forward, the lead seesawed between the two teams. The Thunder won the period 32-26, but the Warriors still finished with a four-point lead 83-79. The Warriors could not pull away from the Thunder until late in the fourth quarter. The Warriors led by four 95-91 with a little of six minutes left in the game. OKC cut the deficit to two 99-97, but Curry made a layup and got fouled on the play. He made the free throw, and the lead was back to five, 102-97. With time running out, Kevon Looney made a two-point bucket that ignited the crowd. Durant scored to put Golden State up 106-99. However, Durant landed awkwardly on his right shoulder, and the Arena went silent. The big guy rose to his feet and shook off the injury, and the fans let out a huge collective sigh of relief. Durant scored the last bucket of the night, and the Warriors finished the night with their first victory of the season.

Game Notes and Stats: At times, as mentioned above, the play looked sloppy on both sides. The Warriors turned the ball over 20 times, and head coach Steve Kerr was not happy as he wants the team to handle the ball better and keep turnovers to under fifteen. Kerr knows his players are still getting in shape and looked tired, saying: “We didn’t look much like ourselves. It’s not surprising either. We need a couple more weeks.”

Kevin Durant who played well as he knocked down 27 points and had 8 rebounds and six assists said this about the team’s performance.

“I love who we are, game 1 of 82,” Durant said. “Just keep grinding.”

Steph Curry led the team with 32 points, 8 rebounds, and 9 assists. Curry  did not make a 3-pointer in the second half and ended the night with 5 for 9 in that department. Klay Thompson finished with 10. Draymond Green did not score in the second half, but he finished the night with an astounding 13 rebounds and 5 assists. Green admitted that he was tired, but he did not play much in the preseason as he was resting a sore knee. The Warriors big men, Kevon Looney and Damian Jones, played well. Looney scored 10 points and had 10 boards. Jones had a career-high 12 points, 3 rebounds and 2 boards.

Paul George caught fire in the second half and finished the night with 27 points for OKC. Steve Adams finished with 17 points and 11 rebounds. Dennis Schroder added 21 points, 9 rebounds, and 6 assists. The Thunder’s leader and All-Star guard Russell Westbrook did not play as he was sidelined with a knee injury.

Up Next: The Warriors travel to Salt Lake City to play the Utah Jazz Friday night. Game time will be at 7:30 pm PT and will be shown on ESPN.

That’s Amaury’s News and Commentary podcast: Brewers shut out Dodgers have a shot to win this series; A’s part ways with flagship station

Published on by Sports Radio ServiceLeave a comment

photo from jsonline.com: Milwaukee Brewers’ Jeremy Jeffress (left) and catcher Erik Kratz celebrate after the Brewers shut down the Los Angeles Dodgers, 4-0, in Game 3 of the National League Championship Series on Oct. 15, 2018, in Los Angeles.

On That’s Amaury’s Commentary:

#1 The Milwaukee Brewers look like a dominating club. They took game one of the NLCS against the Los Angeles Dodgers then dropped game two, but came back and shutout the Dodgers 4-0 in game three and this is after they swept the Colorado Rockies during the NLDS.

#2 The Red Sox and the Astros are both tied in the ALCS. The Sox tied the series with a 7-5 win and play in Houston tonight.

#3 The Oakland A’s decided to part way wit their flagship station 95.7FM the Game. The A’s said the lack of “promotion and interest” by the station was the reason behind the move.

#4 The A’s are without a flagship station and this is going to be a big concern. Where can they go? They’re considering streaming their games.

#5 Should team president David Kaval and the A’s considered staying at The Game until they find another radio station? Right now, the A’s are nomads for radio.

San Francisco 49ers podcast with David Zizmor: 49ers looked great, but not good enough to win a close contest

Published on by Sports Radio ServiceLeave a comment

mercurynews.com photo: Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (12) celebrates a touchdown during the first half of an NFL football game against the San Francisco 49ers Monday, Oct. 15, 2018, in Green Bay, Wis.

On the 49ers podcast with David Zizmor:

We’ve seen this with 49ers quarterback CJ Beathard over the last two years. He manages to keep the game pretty close as he did against the Chargers and Monday Night against the Packers in Green Bay. Last year, he had five starts where the 49ers lost by three points an NFL record for consecutive losses with less than three points.

Beathard does just well enough, but the problem is there have been untimely turnovers and penalties that just seals the Niners’ fate. They were in position to win this one. It wasn’t like they weren’t in this one or like the Packers ran away with it. The Niners were playing really good football and the defense wasn’t letting the Packers move the ball that much, but the Niners went into half time with a 24-17 lead and couldn’t hold on in the end they lost by three, 33-30.

#2 The Bruins Joshua Kelly carried for 157 yards and three touchdown quite and afternoon for Kelly, who went all out.

#3 The Bears quarterback Brandon McIlwain turned the ball over so many times that it played heavily into the Bears’ loss on Saturday.

#5 Oregon State (1-5) will host the Cal Bears next Saturday at 1pm the Beavers have also had their share of getting banged around dropping a game to Washington State Saturday by a huge deficit 56-37.
