MEMPHIS, Tenn. Kevin Durant Shoes Outlet . - Mike Conley and Stephen Curry are playing with great confidence, so much that theyre in early MVP candidate conversations.Their play also is why Curry and the Warriors and Conleys Grizzlies square off Tuesday night in a matchup of teams with the NBAs best records.Conley has sparked Memphis to a franchise-best 19-4 start.The guard scored a career-high 36 points to help Memphis rally from an 18-point deficit to beat Philadelphia in overtime Saturday night. He was at his best late in the road game, hitting four of five 3-pointers in the fourth quarter, including the tying 3 at the end of regulation.Obviously, my outside shots been falling, and Ive been looking for my opportunity offensively trying to get to the rim, get to the free throw line as much as I can, Conley said before practice Monday. And its really allowed me to open up things for a lot of other people, and I think everybody else is kind of feeding off of that.The result has Conley averaging a career-high 17.8 points through 23 games, second only to Marc Gasol with the Grizzlies. Conley also is shooting 48 per cent from the floor and 44.9 per cent beyond the arc — both would be the best in his eight seasons. He also leads the team handing out an average 6.3 assists per game.Guard Courtney Lee said Conley talked throughout the game in Philadelphia that the Grizzlies were going to win. Conleys game-tying 3 came with a defender flying at him, and Lee said he knew once Conley had the ball in his hand the guard would make the right play.Hes maturing, Lee said of Conley. Hes starting to understand when we need a big shot or we need a big play, he has to be involved. And nine times out of 10, he might be the guy that takes that shot. So I think hes grown as a game closer.The Grizzlies have helped Conley score more by playing veteran Beno Udrih alongside him to help handle the ball and give him more room to work. Nick Calathes, who missed the first 13 games serving out a suspension, also can help out. They also give Conley much-needed rest in some games. Conley hit all eight shots in a win over Miami on Dec. 7 playing less than 28 minutes.As well as Conley has been playing, Curry has been even hotter.He and Golden State backcourt mate Klay Thompson have each scored 25 points or more in two straight games for the first time, helping extend Warriors franchise-best winning streak to 16 straight. Curry scored eight of his 34 in overtime Sunday in New Orleans, and he is fifth in the NBA averaging 23.7 points a game.Hes awesome to play alongside with, he knows when to pass and take the big shots, Thompson said of Curry. He should definitely be mentioned in the MVP talks with the way he has been playing. Hes a big reason for our success on this win streak.Curry heard some MVP chants in New Orleans but is focusing on dealing with the expectations that come with each new win.I dont really listen to the MVP talk, Curry said. Thatll speak for itself at the end of the year.Already 13-1 on the road, the Warriors sense no pressure in Memphis. Getting that 14th road win in Memphis could be difficult; the Grizzlies are 11-1 at home this season.Conley said both teams are curious to measure themselves against the other.Its going to be a lot of fun, Conley said. Its a great challenge playing against a team that is playing very, very well. Obviously, theyve got a lot of firepower over there so were excited to have that challenge and take them on at home.Not to mention the excitement and anticipation of the Curry-Conley matchup.___AP Sports Writer Brett Martel in New Orleans contributed to this report.___Follow Teresa M.

Chelsea ripped apart Hull inside 25 minutes at Stamford Bridge, with the early goals from Oscar and Frank Lampard securing a 2-0 victory. While Lampard had earlier missed a penalty, Roberto Soldado had no such trouble from the spot for Tottenham, scoring on his debut to clinch a 1-0 victory over Crystal Palace. FRISCO, Texas -- Canadian womens head coach John Herdmann says hes tired of seeing his team lose to the United States. Winless against its arch rival since 2001, Canada dropped its latest contest -- a friendly between the two nations on Friday night -- 1-0 on a goal by Canadian-born Sydney Leroux. "Were disappointed because were sick of saying good try, well done, and we battled hard," Herdmann said. "At some point weve got to beat this team and if its not now, then when? And hopefully its (at the Womens World Cup) in 2015." Leroux, who is a U.S. citizen, scored in the 78th minute to break a scoreless tie against Canada and give the U.S. the victory in both teams 2014 opener. It was Lerouxs fourth goal in the past three games, with two of them coming against the country of her birth. "I love to watch her," Herdmann said. "Shes a phenomenal player and shes great to watch ... and she scores against us. Ive just told her (after the game) to stop doing that, man. You do it against anyone else but not us." The game looked as if it was going to be a scoreless draw before Lerouxs late offence, largely thanks to strong play by Canadian goalkeeper Erin McLeod and no clear goal chances for the U.S. "I always hope that were going to get one," said Leroux, who was stopped several times in the first half. "Thats kind of how we play, and we push to the very last second. Im just happy that we came out on top of the game 1-0. It was a good game. It was physical and Im glad we came out on top." The Americans sent plenty of chances into the zone, but McLeod calmly caught and parried several crosses. But in the 78th minute, a bit of nifty footwork gave the U.S. the lead. Becky Sauerbrunn started a run with the ball outside the 18-yard box, fed the ball to substitute Christen Press and then immediately got it back, going towward the right post. Wholesale Kevin Durant Shoes. Press then weaved a pass through McLeod and defenders Kadeisha Buchanan and Sura Yekka to find Leroux waiting all alone 3 yards. Leroux one-timed the ball with the inside of her left foot for the game-winner. The Americans extended their home unbeaten streak to 78 games (68-0-10). The U.S., ranked No. 1 in the world, also remains undefeated under second-year coach Tom Sermanni (14-0-3), and is a perfect 11-0 all time when playing in Texas. The win marks a strong start to a World Cup qualifying year for the Americans. CONCACAF qualifying is at the end of the year, and the U.S. should be favourites to emerge out of the region. Canada, the hosts the 2015 Womens World Cup, automatically qualifies for the tournament. The 20,862 fans at FC Dallas home stadium were the largest crowd since 2003. "I was a bit anxious about this game because we havent played a game for a long time," said Sermanni, whose team hadnt played since a 4-1 victory against Brazil. "The players have had time off. Canada has played some international recently." The Americans thought they took the lead in the 38th minute when defender Whitney Engen popped in a headed pass, but she was called offside by about 6 yards. Canadian midfielder Josee Belanger took possession at the top of the U.S. zone moments after Engens offside and dinked the ball through two American defenders to Diana Matheson. U.S. goalkeeper Hope Solo cut down the angle and Mathesons cross-body chip from about 6 yards trickled past the far post to preserve the scoreless half. It was Solos only test of the first half, and she didnt have to make a save until diving to her right in the 87th minute to stop Jonelle Filigno and preserve the shutout. "You know theyre going to score," Herdmann said. "Ive never known a game where the U.S. doesnt score." ' ' '
