Joe Johnson and Lionel Hollins have separate histories beating up the Detroit Pistons.Saturday, they got to do it together.Johnson scored 15 of his 34 points in the final eight minutes and Hollins beat the Pistons for the 10th time in 11 tries as the Brooklyn Nets pulled away to win 102-90.I was moving pretty good, and we just started executing and hitting big shot after big shot, Johnson said. We had a lot of mistakes and we let the lead slip away in the fourth quarter, but then Coach called a timeout and we got things back together.Johnson has averaged 16.4 points in 40 career games against Detroit, but has rarely looked more impressive than he did Saturday against Stan Van Gundys team. Johnson was 14 of 23 from the floor, torching everyone the Pistons tried against him, and added eight rebounds.We got blown up by a great player, Van Gundy said. Ive been coaching against him for a long time, and as you can see, I still havent found a way to stop him. We wanted to double him, but he was making 23-footers, and you dont want to run a guy out that far. At the end, we didnt have a choice.The Pistons (0-3) got 18 points and 11 rebounds from Greg Monroe, who was making his season debut after a two-game suspension for a drunk-driving arrest, but shot 1 for 17 on 3-pointers.Obviously, 5.9 per cent isnt going to get you anywhere on 3-pointers, Van Gundy said. A lot of that is on me, because I still dont have a handle on what this team can do offensively.Kevin Garnett added 18 points and 14 rebounds for the Nets (1-1), while Deron Williams scored 15.Being 1-1 is obviously better than being 0-2, but I would have been proud of the way this team (played) no matter what happened, Hollins said.The Nets led 59-47 after a first half that saw them score at least 25 points against Pistons small forward Kyle Singler. Singler struggled against Johnson, who had 17 in the first half, and was beaten badly by Williams for three straight baskets.The Pistons were able to protect Singler a little more in the third quarter, and with Monroe available, they were able to withstand Andre Drummonds third straight game with foul trouble.That let them stay within 81-75 at the end of three, and they took a 84-83 lead when Caron Butler hit three free throws with 8:49 to play. Drummond, though, picked up his fifth foul moments later, and Johnson scored the next seven points to put Brooklyn back in front.Kentavious Caldwell-Pope ended the Nets run with a jumper, but the Pistons werent able to do anything with Johnson.Its crazy, Garnett said. Ive got the best seat in the house to be able to watch him. I told him after this one that he played an awesome game.___TIP-INSNets: Garnett was booed every time he touched the ball, just as he has been at the Palace of Auburn Hills since the Celtics beat the Pistons in the 2008 Eastern Conference finals.Pistons: The game was the official debut of the multi-million dollar renovations of the 26-year-old Palace, highlighted by a massive six-screen videoboard at centre court. The new technology was used as part of a halftime tribute to Detroit that included a surprise appearance by Kid Rock. . The Pistons shot 25 per cent (8 for 32) outside the paint.TURNING POINTAfter the Pistons took the lead on Butlers free throws, Johnson outscored the Pistons 15-2 in a stretch of just under five minutes. What can you say when a guy gets hot like that? We just tried to get him the ball in a good position and he took over the game, Hollins said.NUMBERSThrough three games, the Pistons are shooting 21.9 per cent on 3-pointers, but taking more than 20 a game. Josh Smith (0 for 6) and Caldwell-Pope (2 for 16) have struggled the most.UP NEXT:Nets: Host Oklahoma City on Monday.Pistons: Host New York on Wednesday. Chris Herndon Jersey .

FIFA also has the Canadian men ranked 16th in CONCACAF, which covers North and Central America and the Caribbean.Panama stands 56th in the world and fourth in CONCACAF.Canadian coach Benito Floro is pragmatic about the low-rent soccer neighbourhood his team is currently occupying in the rankings.While acknowledging that Central American countries play more games than Canada so can collect more points in the rankings, Floro is not making excuses.I think its fair, the Spaniard said via an interpreter Monday in a media conference call from Panama City. Were trying to improve and to get more games to try to improve in the rankings.Canadas best ranking was No. 40, achieved in December 1996. Its average ranking is 76 since the ratings began in August 1993.Under Floro, Canada is 1-5-3, having defeated Jamaica, lost to Colombia, Mauritania, Australia, the Czech Republic and Slovenia and tied Mauritania, Bulgaria and Moldova.The Jamaica victory in September ended a 16-game winless slide that started prior to Floro and included a 10-game 959-minute scoring drought.On the plus side, Canada is 1-1-2 in 2014, performing admirably most recently in a 1-0 loss to third-ranked Colombia.Floro, whose coaching resume includes a stint at Real Madrid from 1992 to 1994 as well as teams in Spain, Ecuador, Japan, Mexico and Morocco, says results are not very very important for us. His emphasis continues to be teaching and getting the tactics and style of play right.Hes very detailed and I think the players are really starting to see the results of buying into his ideas, said veeteran forward Dwayne De Rosario.ddddddddddddPanama will be a stiff test at home, which is just what Floro wants. He knows his team will have to get used to the heat and hostility in Central America when it comes to matches that count.Canada lost 2-0 at Estadio Rommel Fernandez in World Cup qualifying in September 2012 just four days after beating the Panamanians 1-0 at Torontos BMO Field on a 77th-minute De Rosario goal.The local fans subjected the Canadians to a loud, all-night party outside their hotel last time in Panama City. That shouldnt happen this time since both teams are sharing the same hotel. Floros current squad in Panama features a select group of veterans with a lot of youth.Six of the starters from that 2012 Panama loss are in Floros tour party: goalie Lars Hirschfeld, defender David Edgar, midfielders Patrice Bernier, Julian de Guzman and Atiba Hutchinson and De Rosario. Four of the substitutes that day are also in the current Canadian squad.Canada and Panama tied 0-0 at Denver in the 2013 Gold Cup, the last game before Floro took chargeAsked about young forward Lucas Cavallini, who is not in camp, Floro said he was an interesting player who had declined numerous invitations to join the national team.Right now he will have to wait for the other strikers that have been showing up to see what the development is and whats going to happen with them, he said.Floro was also asked about Ethan Finlay and Tesho Akindele, two MLS players who can also play for the United States.Floro said he has been following Finlay but the Columbus Crew winger would have to come to a national team camp to be evaluated properly. Akindele turned down an invitation for this camp with Floro saying the FC Dallas forward has a very tough decision to make right now.Follow @NeilMDavidson on Twitter Cheap Nike Celtics Jerseys Cheap Nike Nets Jerseys Cheap New York Knicks Jerseys Cheap Philadelphia 76ers Jerseys China Raptors Jerseys Wholesale Chicago Bulls Jerseys Wholesale Cleveland Cavaliers Jerseys China Pistons Jerseys Wholesale Indiana Pacers Jerseys Cheap Milwaukee Bucks Jerseys Atlanta Hawks Jerseys Online Cheap Nike Hornets Jerseys China Heat Jerseys Cheap Nike Magic Jerseys China Wizards Jerseys Cheap Nike Nuggets Jerseys China Timberwolves Jerseys China Thunder Jerseys China Blazers Jerseys Cheap Utah Jazz Jerseys China Warriors Jerseys Cheap Nike Clippers Jerseys Discount Lakers Jerseys Phoenix Suns Jerseys Online Cheap Sacramento Kings Jerseys Dallas Mavericks Jerseys Online Wholesale Houston Rockets Jerseys Wholesale Memphis Grizzlies Jerseys New Orleans Pelicans Jerseys Online Discount Spurs Jerseys ' ' '
