Knicks would need some time with Ro

Josh Dunkley is the 2016 AFL grand final father-son story with a twist. Gerry Cheevers Jersey .While teammates Tom Liberatore, Lachie Hunter and Zaine Cordy are set to go one better than their dads by representing the Western Bulldogs on the biggest football stage of all, Dunkley could just as easily have been wearing red and white at the MCG on Saturday.Lifelong Sydney fan Dunkley - the son of 217-game Swans fullback Andrew Dunkley - had chosen them as his club of choice ahead of last years national draft.But when the Bulldogs made a pre-draft bid of 25 for the powerful midfielder, the Swans chose not to match it as they were desperate to retain enough points to land highly-rated academy prospect Callum Mills.Mills has exceeded all expectations in his debut year, winning the Rising Star award, although he remains in doubt for the grand final with a hamstring injury.Dunkley has also had a standout 2016 campaign, playing 16 senior matches, including important roles in the Bulldogs three finals wins over West Coast, Hawthorn and GWS.He holds no grudges against the Swans, but is pretty certain his father will be cheering on the Bulldogs on Saturday.I speak to dad nearly every day, Dunkley said on Monday.Hes obviously been there and done it all before, so to get that experience and knowledge on the game is really good for me.I think hes probably 90-10 - 90 per cent for the Dogs and 10 for the Swans.The last three games have been really special and hes been there to see it first hand.Andrew Dunkleys only grand final for the Swans came in unusual circumstances in 1996.The rugged fullback with the ungainly kicking action had been reported on video evidence for striking Essendons James Hird in the preliminary final, only for the Swans to obtain a Supreme Court injunction preventing the case from being heard until after the grand final.The Swans went on to lose the decider to North Melbourne by 43 points and Dunkley was subsequently suspended for three weeks.In 2005 Barry Hall got reported and I remember dad saying he was in a similar situation when they made the grand final in 1996, said Josh Dunkley of the incident where the Swans spearhead controversially had a striking charge donwgraded, allowing him to play in the 2005 triumph over West Coast.They showed vision of (Andrew Dunkley) on the TV walking in to the tribunal so I found out the whole story then.Now Dunkley junior gets the chance to write his own unforgettable grand final story as the Bulldogs chase a first premiership in 62 long years. Frank Vatrano Jersey . -- Aaron Murray threw for 408 yards and three touchdowns, ran for another score, and led No. David Pastrnak Jersey . LOUIS -- Theres no telling how these wacky World Series games will end. http://www.bruinsauthority.com/authentic-milan-lucic-bruins-jersey/ . The next step is a better finish. Bae played bogey-free Friday on another gorgeous day at Riviera for a 5-under 66, giving him a one-shot lead over Aaron Baddeley and Robert Garrigus going into the weekend. GREENBURGH, N.Y. -- The New York Knicks new starting five havent played together in the preseason. So Kristaps Porzingis knows that it will take time for the club to develop cohesion.Its going to take us some time to figure this whole thing out, Porzingis said on Sunday, two days before the Knicks open their season against the defending-champion Cleveland Cavaliers. It doesnt have to be in a week. It takes time.New point guard Derrick Rose was away from the team for more than two weeks this month during a civil trial in Los Angeles. And starting center Joakim Noah missed 10 days earlier this month because of a hamstring injury.Both players absences have seemingly affected the Knicks chemistry during the preseason.I think were definitely a work in progress, Noah said on Sunday. We have a lot of work to do. We got to get better. We havent had a lot of time to play together. Overall, I felt [Sundays practice] was a good day. But we definitely have ... we have to get better.Rose returned to New York on Friday after a jury found he and two friends were found not liable in a civil lawsuit that accused them of gang-raping Roses ex-girlfriend. He met with coaches that day to go over elements of the offense that he had missed during his time in Los Angeles and practiced with his teammates Saturday and Sunday.Porzingis ssaid on Sunday that Rose looked strong during those weekend workouts. Ryan Spooner Jersey. Hes been learning really fast. He picks up this stuff really quick, Porzingis said. I think with a point guard like Derrick, itll be easier for me. He will try to make plays for us, and hell try to make the game easier for us.Porzingis added, though, that the Knicks would need some time with Rose to develop strong timing on offense.I dont want to put too much pressure on us that were going to be really good right away, he said. Its going to take some time.All teams develop cohesion and chemistry over the course of the season, of course. But the injury to Noah and Roses absence seem to have affected the Knicks development under first-year head coach Jeff Hornacek, particularly on defense. New York ranked 25th among NBA teams in preseason defensive rating.Noah said on Sunday that the Knicks had a lot of work to do on defense when he was asked about the subject after practice.We have to get better. Numbers dont lie, and right now I feel a step slow defensively, said Noah, who missed three preseason games because of the hamstring injury. I have to do better. I have to do better for this ballclub. We all do.
