Toews: We’ve got to be ready to bring our best May 13, 2013 12:00 AM
In theory, a Tuesday night opener would have given the Blackhawks a bit of an advantage because the Red Wings would be coming in from California after Sunday's late-night clincher in what was a grueling series while a well-rested Hawks team would be waiting to pounce. Well, all that went out the window Monday morning when the league announced the series opener between the two storied rivals would commence Wednesday night instead.

Forgotten Hamilton makes rare court appearance May 13, 2013 12:00 AM
Richard Hamilton was as surprised as anyone when Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau looked down the bench and sent him into the game early in the second quarter. "Wow, I'm going in the game," Hamilton said later when asked to describe his thoughts. "It's a crazy game. Sometimes you've just got to be ready." After missing a long stretch late in the season with a back injury, Hamilton made just two brief appearances in the first round against Brooklyn and hadn't played at all in the Miami series.

Mike North video: Sergio Garcia Goes Tin Cup May 13, 2013 12:00 AM
After Sergio Garcia's collapse yesterday, Mike North thinks he probably didn't sleep too well last night. Not only did he give away the lead to Tiger Woods after some verbal sparring, but he went from making $1.7 million to a little over $200,000. He will have some trouble recovering from this one.

Chris Rongey: Bad White Sox defense has to stop May 12, 2013 12:00 AM
The White Sox this year have always been — going back to February — a team that would have very little room for error if they wanted to truly compete. Unluckily, all we've seen this season is too many of those. Errors.

Bulls say physical play will continue May 12, 2013 12:00 AM

Luol Deng sat and watched while his teammates shot around after Sunday's practice. As much as he'd like to contribute to the Bulls' playoff effort, Deng is having trouble sustaining any sort of pysical activity. “I’m just trying to get back to how I do things normally,” he said. “It hasn’t been that easy. It’s easier not eating solid food.”
