Nuggets search for answers after dropping 2 straight to Suns

Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 10:27:50 GMT

DENVER (AP) — Kevin Durant and Devin Booker needed just a little bit more offensive help, someone to take just the tiniest bit of pressure off Phoenix’s high-scoring tandem.Along came Landry Shamet, who elevated his game — five 3-pointers, 19 points — as the Suns equalized the second-round series at 2-2 against the Denver Nuggets. It’s the X-factors who are helping swing a series that moves back to the Mile High City for Game 5 on Tuesday night. Philadelphia also plays at Boston with that series tied at 2-all.Durant and Booker are simply doing what stars do — shine. Same with the Nuggets in Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic, whose 53-point performance in a 129-124 loss Sunday was overshadowed by a sideline fracas with Suns owner Mat Ishbia (Jokic drew a $25,000 fine from the league for making improper contact).Shamet certainly stepped up for Phoenix in Game 4. The contest before, it was Cameron Payne who started in place of the injured Chris Paul and scored seven points, including...

Family of famous Boston Marathon dog, Spencer, welcomes new puppy thanks to therapy dog nonprofit

Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 10:27:50 GMT

A new era may be coming for the Boston Marathon as the owners of the iconic former official marathon dog, Spencer, welcome home a new puppy named “Jimmy.” Jimmy arrived thanks to a therapy dog group. Speaking with 7NEWS, Rich Powers said Jimmy couldn’t have come at a better time for the family. “He’s pretty smart and he’s very eager to please,” Powers said. “He’s a good looking boy.”Spencer and fellow golden retreiver Penny were two beloved mascots who had encouraged thousands of runners along the Boston Marathon route since 2014 until early this year. Spencer passed away in February. Penny then passed just days later. In both cases, the dogs died due to canine cancer. “We were having a very difficult time grieving over the loss of both,” Powers said. “We usually had two so that wouldn’t happen so that they would help us grieve over the other one.”“[W]e had plans on getting Penny a friend and we didn’t know she was going to leave us ...

Robbins: Charlie the Golden head of the class for social support

Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 10:27:50 GMT

Charlie is a seven-year-old Golden Retriever who knows there’s something different about Tuesdays. For starters, her dog walker comes earlier than usual, and deposits Charlie back home by early afternoon. A bag appears out of the closet, and Charlie’s favorite stuffed animal is placed in it, along with a sandwich bag full of dog treats and an empty water bowl. Charlie knows something’s up, and knows what that something is. When her owner calls her name, Charlie is on her feet, barreling down the stairs, out the front door and toward the car which she remembers will transport her an hour south on the highway to a parking lot two blocks from the political science department of a New England university.She knows the drill. There is a university security guy who must have had a Golden as a boy, because he waits for her every week, and before the hatchback is open he is out of his car and heading over, calling “Charlie! I missed you!” The fellow just turned 50, but you’d never know it by...

Inspector general: Put MBTA safety oversight somewhere else

Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 10:27:50 GMT

Thanks, but no thanks, Inspector General Jeffrey Shapiro said of a state lawmaker’s proposal to move safety oversight of the MBTA into his office.Testifying Monday at a Joint Committee on Transportation hearing, Shapiro said that he instead favors moving this watchdog role from the Department of Public Utilities to a new independent agency “focused solely on safety of the MBTA.”He envisions two branches within this potential entity, one for the region’s subway system, which aligns with the Federal Transit Administration’s oversight authority; and a smaller one focused on everything else: buses, regional transit authorities and ferries.“I do believe that a new safety agency, as defined by the FTA, is needed,” Shapiro said, referring to the feds’ critique in last year’s safety management inspection that state safety oversight be independent from the governor’s office.“That agency should not be the OIG,” he added. “Rather, the OIG would have oversight of the new safety agency.”This sol...
