CLEVELAND -- The Los Angeles Lakers left Canadian Robert Sacre on the court after he fouled out in the fourth quarter. Jermaine Marrow Jersey . Coach Mike DAntoni felt it was the best move for his depleted team. Its been that kind of year for the short-handed Lakers. Los Angeles lost two more players to injuries on Wednesday night and had to go to a little-known NBA rule to hold on for a 119-108 victory against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Wednesday night. "That was, by far, one of the strangest games Ive ever seen," DAntoni said. Rookie Ryan Kelly scored a career-high 26 points and Steve Blake had his first career triple-double for Los Angeles, which snapped a seven-game losing streak. The Lakers set a franchise record for 3-pointers, going 18 for 37 from long range. But Los Angeles first win in two weeks was overshadowed by a bizarre ending. The Lakers had eight available players coming into the game. Then Nick Young twisted his left knee in the first half and Chris Kaman fouled out early in the fourth quarter. When Jordan Farmar left with leg cramps in the final period, that put Los Angeles at five players. Sacre committed his sixth foul with 3:32 remaining, but the North Vancouver, B.C., native stayed in the game because DAntoni was out of healthy bodies. The Lakers were assessed a technical foul. "That was just crazy," Sacre said. "When I got my sixth foul, I was just like, Oh, dang! Then I got to come back in, so I thought it was something special. I didnt know what was going on." Each side has to have five players on the court at all times during an NBA game. With the Lakers down to five healthy players, DAntoni was informed by the officials that he could leave Sacre on the floor and any addition foul on the centre would also result in a technical. "I didnt know about that rule, but its a nice rule," DAntoni said with a chuckle. The Lakers were without Steve Nash (rest), Jodie Meeks (sprained ankle) and Jordan Hill (strained neck). Pau Gasol (groin) and Kobe Bryant (knee) remained in Los Angeles for the three-game road trip. The situation was so unusual that Nash, who was in street clothes, went to the locker room and put on his uniform late in the game, but DAntoni said he had no intention of putting the point guard into the game. "I was not going to go to Nash -- it was not an option to us -- but the other thing we talked about was having Jordan go out there and just stand in the corner," DAntoni said. "When the officials came over to explain the options to me, we decided to keep Robert out there. I knew he would be smart and not commit too many more fouls." Nash played for the first time since Nov. 10 on Tuesday night after being out because of a nerve problem in his back. Meeks sprained his right ankle about a minute into Tuesdays game and Hill was elbowed in the head by Kaman. Farmar scored 21 points and Wesley Johnson added 20 for the Lakers, who shot 53 per cent from the field. Blake had 11 points, 15 assists and 10 rebounds. C.J. Miles led Cleveland with 27 points. All-Star point guard Kyrie Irving was taken out with 7:32 remaining in the third quarter and finished with 11 points as the Cavaliers lost their sixth consecutive game, tying their longest losing streak of the season. Anderson Varejao was the only starter to play in the fourth quarter as Miles, Anthony Bennett of Brampton, Ont., Matthew Dellavedova and Dion Waiters got the Cavaliers back in the game. "They definitely deserved to be on the floor," Irving said. "That second group did a heck of a job. You have to give a whole bunch of credit to them. If I were the coach, I would have played that second group as long as he did." "Maybe we can learn something from what that group did on the floor," Cleveland coach Mike Brown said. "They played the right way." The Lakers built a 29-point lead in the second quarter and led 96-68 late in the third period before the Cavaliers rallied. Cleveland cut the lead to 100-90 early in the fourth and got to 114-108 before Blakes 3-pointer with 56.9 seconds left finally sealed the win. While the Cavaliers were off Tuesday, the Lakers lost in Minnesota and flew through a snowstorm to arrive in Cleveland around 2 a.m. Wednesday. While Los Angeles had 22 assists on 25 field goals while building a 70-49 halftime lead, Clevelands offence was stagnant. The Cavaliers shot 37 per cent from the field and were 1 of 18 on 3-pointers. NOTES: The Cavaliers hung a new banner of Austin Carrs retired No. 34 jersey from the rafters at Quicken Loans Arena on Wednesday. The original banner vanished last week and is still missing. Carr was the first player drafted by the franchise in 1971 and currently works as a TV colour analyst for the team. ... Nash is expected to play Friday night in Philadelphia. ... Lakers G Manny Harris second 10-day contract expired and the team chose not to re-sign him for the rest of the season. Harris went out on a high note with 18 points against Minnesota. MLB Jerseys . "Its not done, but its a huge step," Hannover general manager Dirk Dufner said.

"Yes, Id like to get them in," Detroits rookie manager said. "Mother Natures going to have a say in that."

Then, Dave in Year 2 will become the head coach and Ill move up to just be the general manager. With that program in place, I dont think that theres a whole lot of talking necessary about another team.When asked if hed still consider talking to B.C. general manager Wally Buono about the vacant head coaching position with the Lions, Dickenson said hes not even considering that option.Im not leaving, said Dickenson, who was announced as a member of the Canadian Football Hall of Fames 2015 class last Friday. Ive said that a million times. Im staying here. I dont know if hes planning on calling or not. I respect Wally, love what hes done. Hes been really good to me, but Im locked in here in Calgary. Im very happy to do that.The Stampeders are coming off a 20-16 win over the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in Sundays Grey Cup final. Its Calgarys second CFL title since Hufnagel took over as head coach in 2008.We put a lot of blood, sweat and tears into this one man and (its great) for Huff to finally get one again, said linebacker Keon Raymond, who referred to Hufnagel as probably the best coach Ive ever played for in my life.I appreciate and I admire coach Hufnagel so much, Raymond added. To have this opportunity to make this run with him — seven years — Im overjoyed with.When told of Raymonds comments, Hufnagel said he appreciated the compliment.It was very flattering, he said. One thing I try to do is build a relationship within the locker-room of trust and part of that trust is them trusting me and it goes from there.Dickenson also had high praise for the man he referred to as one of his coaching mentors.This is Huffs team and hes done just such a great job, Dickenson said. Im glad hes coming back. I told him that after the game, Dont do anything crazy now. Come back here. Hes just really, to me, a guy that we can all lean on and he showed what a great coach he was this year. I want to keep working with him for many, many years.Runniing back Jon Cornish wasnt shocked to hear of the plan to have Dickenson to take over as coach in 2016. Cheap Nike MLB Jerseys. I think that a lot of players were surprised, Cornish said. I wasnt. Hes been the associate head coach and has sort of been the No. 2 guy here for quite some time now, so its just nice to see it official.Now that hes had time to celebrate the Grey Cup win with his staff and players, Hufnagel said hes going to turn his attention to more pressing matters related to helping the Stamps defend their title next season.Right now its full steam ahead and trying to get some players signed up and talking to their agents, Hufnagel said. Hopefully we can have some good luck with that over the next couple weeks.Among the list of prospective free agents on the Stamps is Brett Jones, the CFLs Most Outstanding Offensive Lineman.Brett has a lot of things on his table right now, Hufnagel said. He is getting NFL interest. He wants to try to pursue that. Thats going to be a wait-and-see game. If things dont blossom down south, then hopefully hes wearing the red and white next year.Defensive end Shawn Lemon confirmed that he already has a dozen workouts scheduled with NFL teams, the first on Friday with the Washington Redskins.I wouldnt play for another CFL team but Calgary, so well go from there, said Lemon, who could test the free-agent market. Ive expressed that to the management already.

We wish we would. We have a great team, we have a great mesh and we have a great locker-room. Theres going to be some surprises for sure — none that I know of yet. When they come, Im sure theyll hurt, but Im sure well go out and get people too.Like Hufnagel, Mitchell said he enjoyed being able to celebrate the championship win, but that hes ready to start preparing for next season.Its over, we won it, so back to work for the next one, he said. We know that theres a lot of hard work that we have to put in and I know that Im going to push myself that much harder to become that much better. ' ' '
