Thats the one test you cant give him. You cant take his hand and whack it against the wall and say How does that feel? We cant do that. We have to just hope that when he gets in a game and it happens, that hes OK.Leonard showed he was fine, scoring all eight of his points in the second quarter following the foul, including his only 3-pointer.The Spurs used quick successive passes to score eight of their first 12 points in the paint against a Jazz team that was averaging 5.8 blocks per game.Tony Parker wrapped a bounce pass around Enes Kanter toward the basket for a cutting Splitter, who avoided a charging defender by passing to Duncan for an open layup.After the starting unit established a presence inside, San Antonios reserves were 3 for 5 on 3-pointers.

It was great to finally go to a game that goes to extra time this season and come away with the two points.The Oilers (8-22-7), won for just the second time in their last 22 games. It was also the second win of the season for Edmonton against a Western Conference opponent, upping its record to 2-18-6 in that category.Newcomer Derek Roy, who was picked up in a trade with Nashville on Monday, said he could tell the Oilers were a team in desperate need of something going right.Getting a win is the main thing right now, he said. We just need to build on it. This should give us some confidence to make plays late in games. We cant allow ourselves to be under siege like we were in the third period. The more experience that we get knowing how to win, the better we are going to get.The victory represented the first NHL win for Edmontons interim head coach Todd Nelson.It does feel really good. Im not sure it has sunk in yet, Nelson said. It is more or less a relief. Its a relief for everyone to get this win under our belts and now we can build the result.Drew Doughty and Jake Muzzin responded for the Kings (18-12- Cool

, who lost their second game in as many nights and fifth straight on the road.This one is disappointing, just like the last one (a 2-1 loss in Calgary), Muzzin said. We have to come out hungrier, more desperate, harder. I dont think were coming out with the right attitude that we need to win hockey games right now.We shouldnt be in that situation where we need goals late, we have to get our goals early.Edmonton kicked off the scoring four-and-a-half minutes into the opening period as Roy made an impact in his first game with the Oilers, making a heads-up feed to Hendricks, whoo blasted a shot from the slot glove-side past Kings starting goalie Jonathan Quick.

Carter said something about the sound of it, he said it didnt sound right. We knew they were going to review it and at the first whistle we knew the league was going to call back.The Kings tied the game with Oiler Justin Schultz in the box for a high-sticking call as Marian Gaborik swung behind the net during a scramble and fed the puck in front to Muzzin, who scored on the short side with just 2:25 remaining in the third.L.A. outshot Edmonton 15-1 in the third period.Scrivens made 39 saves in the victory while Quick stopped 21 shots in defeat.There was an unusual situation in the shootout as the Kings complained about Scrivens having orange tape on the end of his stick and the official went out and taped over it with white.Notes: It was the second of five meetings this season between the two teams.
