HOUSTON -- When DeMarcus Cousins picked up two fouls in the first 6 minutes against Houston, it looked as if it could be a tough night for the Sacramento centre. Fran Tarkenton Vikings Jersey Cyber Monday . Cousins was able to shake off the early foul trouble and took over late in the fourth quarter to lift the Kings to a 110-106 victory over the Rockets on Tuesday night. Rudy Gay had 25 points to help in the victory. The Kings trailed by three points before Cousins scored four quick points to make it 105-104. He then stole the ball from James Harden and passed to Ben McLemore for an easy layup. On the next play, Cousin took a charge from Harden to give the Kings the ball back. "DeMarcus has proven and shown many times that hes willing to give up his body in key situations," Sacramento coach Michael Malone said. "To see him do that, to be in the right spot to give his body up and give us an extra possession is big-time. He had a great game." Cousins admitted that he gets a little too excited to face marquee players like Dwight Howard. "I was so antsy, I was so pumped to play well," he said. "I guess you could say that got me in foul trouble." The late comeback ruined a big night by Harden, who finished with a season-high 38 points and had 10 rebounds and two steals. "The first half we were sluggish we didnt play with any energy," Harden said. "The second half we played a lot harder (but) we cant keep coming up short and coming out with these slow first halves." Gay has scored at least 20 points in seven of his 10 games since being traded from Toronto. Cousins had 17 points, 16 rebounds and four steals, and Marcus Thornton added 15 points. Isaiah Thomas scored six straight points for Sacramento to give the Kings a 101-100 lead with 2:39 remaining. That spurt was capped by his only 3-pointer to extend his streak of 24 straight games with at least one 3-pointer, which is the fourth-longest streak in team history. He had 17 points and 10 assists. A dunk by Terrence Jones and a jump shot by Harden put Houston back up 104-101 before Cousins went to work. Howard had 15 points and eight rebounds for Houston, and Jeremy Lin added 14 points and six assists. "We shouldnt have let them stick around," Howard said. "We allowed that to happen and they played with confidence in the second half, they hit shots and they got a good win." Houston coach Kevin McHale cant figure out why his team struggles to play consistently. "Weve played some poor games and this was another," he said. "It doesnt feel like were in much of a rhythm." The game was tied when Harden took over, scoring six of the points in an 8-1 run to give Houston a 98-92 lead with 5 minutes left. He capped it with a 3-pointer with rookie McLemore right in his face and held up three fingers on each hand as the crowd went wild. Cousins made a dunk which he was fouled on to cut Houstons lead to 88-84 with about 9 1/2 minutes remaining. He slipped after the dunk and remained face down on the court laughing for a few seconds before getting to his feet and missing the free throw. His dunk was part of a 10-2 run that tied it at 90 with 7 minutes left. Quincy Acy gave Sacramento a one-point lead with a layup with about 3 minutes left in the third quarter. The Rockets regained the lead with a 10-3 run to end the quarter and make it 86-80. Sacramento had a 60-52 lead early in the third quarter before Harden got hot. He scored nine points for Houston during a 15-7 spurt that put the Rockets up 67-65. Jason Thompson received a technical after that for a clear path violation when he pushed Harden in the back on a fast break. Harden finished the play after the whistle with a one-handed dunk before making one of two free throws. NOTES: Houston C Omer Asik missed his 15th straight game with thigh and knee injuries. ...

JOHNS, N. MONTREAL -- The PGA Champions Tour hopes to have a deal in place this summer to keep the only Canadian stop on the seniors circuit going for at least another three to five years. Tour president Mike Stevens was to begin talks Tuesday with Synchro Sports, promoters of the US$1.8-million Montreal Championship, on a contract extension. The third edition of the tournament for players 50 and over is to be held June 18-24 at Richelieu Valley Golf Club southeast of Montreal after two years at Fontainebleau north of the city. "Crowds have been spectacular," said Stevens. "These are some of the largest crowds we get all year, and theyre enthusiastic too. "The guys love coming up here to play. And thats why youre getting guys like Freddy (Couples) coming up here, because this event feels as much like a PGA Tour event as any on our schedule." Organizers announced that 1987 Masters champion Larry Mize, winner of the inaugural Montreal Championship in 2010, and last years winner John Cook will be back, along with Couples, who was forced to pull out last summer with a back injury. Stevens said that if negotiations go as expected an extension may be announced at this years tournament or shortly after. "Its a matter of how quickly we can work out the details," he said. "We have Richelieu Valley this year with an option for next year and I hope that theyll want to do it again. "I think theyll see the benefits. Were golf course friendly. We always say we leave the courses better than when we got them." Stevens is to visit Calgary this week to talk to a potential title sponsor, although he added there was no intention to move the event there. The tournament currently has a handful of smaller sponsors, led by the Desjardins credit union group. "There are only twoo PGA Tour events in this country (along with the RBC Canadian Open), so it makes sense to explore the national opportunities from a corporate sponsorship standpoint," he said. Jerick McKinnon Vikings Jersey Cyber Monday. . "These are companies that have to market on a national scale. We didnt focus on it the first two years, but then we said Why not see what we can work out." A title sponsor contributing between $2.5 million and $3 million per year would raise the possibility of expanding the three-round tournament to 72 holes and even bringing back a Canadian national senior open, although he said there have been no talks yet with the Royal Canadian Golf Association on that possibility. But Stevens said the tournament will move to a new city on years when the Canadian Open is held in Montreal, possibly in 2014 when the Open is expected to be played at Royal Montreal. He said it is difficult to sell two events in one market in the same year. A likely destination would be Quebec City, although he also mentioned Toronto and Calgary. "We want to keep it here," said Stevens. "Wed move to another market when that happens. We talked about Quebec City at the time. No specifics. No dates. No course. But we knew the Canadian Open would move into the market at some time." They would also consider moving in years when the CN Canadian Womens Open is in the area, which is about once every eight or nine years. The Montreal Championship will be held a week earlier than its first two editions because the Tour wanted the July 4 weekend in the U.S. for another tournament. However, that event has run into trouble and the Montreal Championship may have the option next year of moving back. It was previously held on July 1 Canada Day week. Either way, it will be on a long weekend as June 24 is a holiday in Quebec. Cheap Jerseys nfl jerseys cheap authentic wholesale jerseys jerseys from china authentic Cheap Jerseys wholesale stitched jerseys ' ' '
