Tolliver Calls Game-Winning Rebound in Hawks Win Over Bucks
Tolliver calls game-winning rebound in Hawks win over Bucks By Chris Vivlamore The Atlanta Journal-Constitution MILWAUKEE — Anthony Tolliver called it. Not a game-winning shot but a game-winning rebound. Tolliver’s rebound of a missed free throw by teammate Dahntay Jones with 22.4 seconds remaining preserved the Hawks’ 104-99 come-from-behind victory over the Bucks Sunday afternoon. With a one-point lead, 100-99 after Jones’ first free throw, Tolliver looked at Jeff Teague and told his teammate a missed shot would be all his. “Yeah, I told him right before it happened, ‘I am going to get this rebound,’” Tolliver said. “I just tried to analyze the situation. I knew he has missed a few free throws earlier so I just wanted to be aggressive toward the rebound. I saw an opportunity. They didn’t box me out and I jumped and it came to me.” Tolliver called timeout after gathering the loose ball forcing the Bucks to foul. Al Horford and Teague each made two free throws in the closing seconds for the final margin. The rebound may not have been the biggest play of the game by Tolliver. He set up Jones’ free throws with a steal seconds earlier. With the game tied at 99-99 after the Hawks erased a five- point deficit with 2:45 remaining and a Bradley Center crowd cheering wildly, Tolliver tipped a pass intended for J.J. Redick that Jones gathered before being fouled. “I was face guarding, being up, on J.J. Redick,” Tolliver said.

Danilo Gallinari Scores 33 Points to Top Derrick Rose's 30 and Nine Boards, As Denver Wins It, 115-110. 3 -- Games in Which
Danilo Gallinari scores 33 points to top Derrick Rose's 30 and nine boards, as Denver wins it, 115-110. 3 -- Games in which the Spurs have trailed at home in the fourth quarter this season, the third coming, quite surprisingly, at the hands of the Lakers Saturday night -- though San Antonio pulled away late for its 37th straight regular season win at AT&T Center. 1,736 -- Career steals for Clippers teammates Chris Paul and Paul Pierce , tied for 18th on the NBA's all- time list, 23 behind 17th place Shawn Marion. I'M FEELIN' ... 1) Good . 2) Terrific (and, long) Q and A with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar by George Mason University economics professor Tyler Cowen . (This has Kareem's "one trick pony" quote about Dirk Nowitzki . I think there's context here that shows the comment wasn't as bad as it seems, but judge for yourself.) 3) We're two months from the playoffs, but it's already looking like another episode of Clippers-Grizz in the first round could be in the offing. Seven games of nasty. Sign me up! 4) Now, this is the way you announce where you're going to college! 5) Congrats to Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos, but especially Manning, whom I hope will ride off into the sunset after a second Super Bowl title. But, it's his life and career. He can do what he wants. (Though I hope he retires.) NOT FEELIN' ... 1) No surprise that Jeff Hornacek was fired in Phoenix last week, given the team's dreadful performances through much of the first half of the season, but everyone owns this, starting with Robert Sarver and GM Ryan McDonough.
