Norwegians, yielding just one goal.

.Y. -- Syracuse has turned up the defence at the right time all season, and when
High Point threatened to pull off a monumental upset the second-ranked Orange
did what they do best with their quick hands and savvy play.
Roberto
Perez Jersey . -- Kyrie Irvings last-minute 3-pointer helped seal another
victory for Cleveland -- and the Cavaliers longest winning streak since
LeBron James left.
Jason
Kipnis Jersey . Down by seven with 90 seconds left in regulation, thats
where they looked comfortable. ALLEN PARK, Mich. -- Darius Slay fought it at
first. He didnt want to cry, even though it was one of the more emotionally
happy days for the Detroit Lions cornerback. He wanted to hold it in and then,
he couldnt anymore.So in the moments after he signed a four-year extension --
sources told ESPNs Adam Schefter the deal is worth $50.2 million -- Slay broke
down and cried.I tried to hold the tears in, but I couldnt too long, just
because of where I came from, Slay said. Shed a couple tears, talked to [Glover
Quin]. Cried on GQs shoulder for a second. Hes seen me as a pup, as a young guy,
saw me coming up and doing this right now, give credit to him and [Rashean
Mathis].They built me up into the guy I am.After Slay signed the deal, he said
he first told Quin. Then he called Mathis, who mentored him during his first
three seasons in the league before retiring this offseason. Then Slay had to get
back to work, so he didnt even get a chance to call his mom to tell her the
news.He figures she knows by now.She probably saw it on ESPN, Slay said. At the
end of last season, Slay said he wanted to remain in Detroit for a long time --
part of the reason he wanted to get a deal done before the start of training
camp.This offseason, Slay switched agents from the late Eugene Parker to Drew
Rosenhaus and made it clear he wanted to get a deal done to stay with the
Lions.The deal also marks the Lions first major extension under new general
manager Bob Quinn.Slay, 25, emerged as one of the best corners in the NFC last
season, when he had 58 tackles and two interceptions. By the end of last season,
teams were actively throwing away from Slay as he began to earn a reputation as
a shutdown cornerback.By the end of last season, Slay was traveling on the
field, covering tthe opponents top receiver on every play.ddddddddddddHe came a
long way from his rookie season in 2013, when he was benched for free agent
Rashean Mathis, who eventually became Slays mentor on and off the field.Slay
rebounded to become a starter in 2014 and then an emerging star last season. He
also knows that the key to making a bigger name for himself is to create
turnovers.Ive got to have interceptions, Slay said in June. I gots to have em.
Ill be knocking the ball down, do all that. When its time to make the big plays,
turn the ball over, I need to be a turnover machine. Thats what Richard Sherman
is. Thats what [Patrick Peterson] is. Thats what all the best ones do; they just
turn the ball over.Slay has four career interceptions and has focused on his
hands this offseason, often catching balls off the JUGS machine after practices
and working on catching the ball whenever he has some downtime.It was something
that we wanted to get done as soon as possible, ideally before training camp
started, said Lions team president Rod Wood. Im really, really glad that it
worked out. A lot of people worked really hard on it from our side and Darius
side, and Im glad it got done.Wood said thats the plan, in terms of re-signing
their own guys to stick around long-term after building through the draft. He
said its a lot easier when you know the guy.After losing Ndamukong Suh in free
agency in 2015 and having Calvin Johnson retire this year, Wood said there was
no added pressure to make sure Slays contract was done well before he would
reach free agency, but that Slay did earn his contract and the team is glad the
extension is done. ' ' '
