Credit Kyle Terada/USA Today Sports, via Reuters\nAfter the Golden State Warriors failed to finish off the Cleveland Cavaliers in last year’s N.B.A. finals, blowing a 3-1 lead in the series, they knew they needed to get better if they wanted to go from a one-time title winner to a dynasty. So the team aggressively pursued superstar Kevin Durant in free agency. The former M.V.P. was worth every penny, leading the Warriors to their second championship in three years.\n\nDurant, who became just the sixth player in N.B.A. history to score 30 or more points in each game of the finals, had 39 in the series-clinching Game 5 victory. He proved his value all over the court with dominant play inside, great outside shooting and tenacious defense as the Warriors beat the Cavaliers 129-120.\n\nIn a tear-filled interview on the court after the game, Durant said he had not slept in two days and was anxious and jittery before the game, but all of that was over now.\n\n“We prevailed,” Durant said. “We’re champions and we did it on our own floor.”\n\nPhoto\n\nGolden State’s Kevin Durant celebrated near Cleveland’s Kevin Love and J.R. Smith after defeating the Cavaliers in Game 5. Credit Thearon W. Henderson/Getty Images\nDurant called James, who had 41 points, 13 rebounds and 8 assists in the loss, the only person he has looked at since 2012 in terms of competition.

As things fell apart in last year’s finals, the Warriors struggled to answer the domination of LeBron James and Kyrie Irving, but Durant has proved to be the offensive equalizer they were missing when Cleveland works to trap Stephen Curry and thus negate his offensive ability.\n\n4th Quarter: Cavs Cut Warriors’ Lead to 5\n\nThe Warriors are now 12 minutes from the team’s second championship in three seasons, as they enter the fourth quarter with a 98-93 lead over the Cavaliers.\n\nGolden State has received huge games from Kevin Durant (28 points) and Stephen Curry (25), but has also gotten a lot of help with 28 points off the bench (compared to 4 from Cleveland’s reserves). Andre Iguodala has been the top bench contributor with 13 points, but Patrick McCaw, the Golden State rookie, was also a tenacious contributor in the third quarter and has 6 key points in the game.\n\nPhoto\n\nCleveland’s Tristan Thompson, left, was pressured by Golden State’s Klay Thompson and Draymond Green on a shot attempt in the second half. Credit Marcio Jose Sanchez/Associated Press\nThere has been no quit in Cleveland, despite Golden State occasionally opening up double-digit leads. They stayed turnover-free in the third quarter, and if there is anything holding them back from a fourth-quarter comeback it may be the health of Kyrie Irving. Irving has 26 points thus far and LeBron James has 27. If not for a total disappearing act by Kevin Love, who has 2 points, Cleveland might not be losing.\n\nBack and Forth: James and Durant Trade Baskets\n\nLeBron James was the first to score in the fourth quarter, with a powerful drive to the basket against Kevin Durant, but Durant was able to answer with a turnaround jumper over James to equalize the points. The battle of wills between arguably the two best players in the game has provided plenty of entertainment in a series that was initially written off as boring when Games 1 and 2 were blowouts.\n\nAfter a pair of free-throws by Draymond Green, the Warriors have increased their lead to 10 points with 9:17 remaining in the game, and James has headed to the bench for a short rest so he can be fresh at the end of the game.\n\nWarriors Pull Away Down the Stretch\n\nWith LeBron James on the bench, Cleveland got one point from a Kevin Love free throw but after a timeout — and just 27 seconds of clock time — James was back on the court. Despite James’s return, the Warriors got dunks from Kevin Durant and Andre Iguodala and increased their lead to 112-102 with 7:42 remaining in the game.",

So the team aggressively pursued superstar Kevin Durant in free agency. The former M.V.P. was worth every penny, leading the Warriors to their second championship in three years.\n\nDurant, who became just the sixth player in N.B.A. history to score 30 or more points in each game of the finals, had 39 in the series-clinching Game 5 victory. He proved his value all over the court with dominant play inside, great outside shooting and tenacious defense as the Warriors beat the Cavaliers 129-120.\n\nIn a tear-filled interview on the court after the game, Durant said he had not slept in two days and was anxious and jittery before the game, but all of that was over now.\n\n“We prevailed,” Durant said. “We’re champions and we did it on our own floor.”\n\nPhoto\n\nGolden State’s Kevin Durant celebrated near Cleveland’s Kevin Love and J.R.

Credit Ezra Shaw/Getty Images\nAggressive Cavs Get Back in the Game\n\nThe Cavaliers have been a team reborn in the second half, fighting for rebounds, getting to the hoop and not making anything easy for the Warriors.\n\nThe aggressiveness of the referees in the first half created numerous open looks for the Warriors’ shooters, but with their backs against the wall, Cleveland appears to have decided it is time to ignore the possibility of fouls and go after the Warriors.\n\nGolden State’s advantage is holding up, with an Andre Iguodala dunk giving them a 10-point lead with five minutes remaining in the third quarter, but the Cavaliers found a blueprint for frustrating the Warriors, and are looking to exploit it to avoid another extended run like the one that nearly sunk them in the second quarter.\n\nPhoto\n\nGolden State’s Kevin Durant (35) celebrated a play during Game 5 in front of Cleveland’s Kyrie Irving (2). Credit Ezra Shaw/Getty Images\nOnce Again, Durant Gives Warriors a Boost\n\nCleveland cut the Golden State lead all the way down to 4 points with 3:33 remaining in the third quarter, but Kevin Durant showed exactly why the Warriors wanted him by nailing a perfect 3-pointer that brought the lead back to seven and forced the Cavaliers to take a timeout. As things fell apart in last year’s finals, the Warriors struggled to answer the domination of LeBron James and Kyrie Irving, but Durant has proved to be the offensive equalizer they were missing when Cleveland works to trap Stephen Curry and thus negate his offensive ability.\n\n4th Quarter: Cavs Cut Warriors’ Lead to 5\n\nThe Warriors are now 12 minutes from the team’s second championship in three seasons, as they enter the fourth quarter with a 98-93 lead over the Cavaliers.\n\nGolden State has received huge games from Kevin Durant (28 points) and Stephen Curry (25), but has also gotten a lot of help with 28 points off the bench (compared to 4 from Cleveland’s reserves). Andre Iguodala has been the top bench contributor with 13 points, but Patrick McCaw, the Golden State rookie, was also a tenacious contributor in the third quarter and has 6 key points in the game.\n\nPhoto\n\nCleveland’s Tristan Thompson, left, was pressured by Golden State’s Klay Thompson and Draymond Green on a shot attempt in the second half. Credit Marcio Jose Sanchez/Associated Press\nThere has been no quit in Cleveland, despite Golden State occasionally opening up double-digit leads. They stayed turnover-free in the third quarter, and if there is anything holding them back from a fourth-quarter comeback it may be the health of Kyrie Irving. Irving has 26 points thus far and LeBron James has 27. If not for a total disappearing act by Kevin Love, who has 2 points, Cleveland might not be losing.\n\nBack and Forth: James and Durant Trade Baskets\n\nLeBron James was the first to score in the fourth quarter, with a powerful drive to the basket against Kevin Durant, but Durant was able to answer with a turnaround jumper over James to equalize the points. The battle of wills between arguably the two best players in the game has provided plenty of entertainment in a series that was initially written off as boring when Games 1 and 2 were blowouts.\n\nAfter a pair of free-throws by Draymond Green, the Warriors have increased their lead to 10 points with 9:17 remaining in the game, and James has headed to the bench for a short rest so he can be fresh at the end of the game.\n\nWarriors Pull Away Down the Stretch\n\nWith LeBron James on the bench, Cleveland got one point from a Kevin Love free throw but after a timeout — and just 27 seconds of clock time — James was back on the court. Despite James’s return, the Warriors got dunks from Kevin Durant and Andre Iguodala and increased their lead to 112-102 with 7:42 remaining in the game.",

John Lang risked his life to expose police corruption, and though his death was ruled a suicide, the events behind his death represent a different story.\n \n** FROM 2016-- BUT NOT COVERED OR TALKED ABOUT **\nSource, and written by Mint Press News Desk *(http://www.mintpressnews.com/fresno-whistleblower-dies-in-suspicious-fire-after-warning-that-cops-would-kill-him/213202/)*: \n\n\nWhile responding to a house fire on the afternoon of Jan. 20th, 2016, firefighters found John Lang, 51, unresponsive. Later that day, he was pronounced dead at a local hospital, though it wasn’t clear whether his death was caused by the fire or by the multiple stab wounds to his back and abdomen. According to a Jan. 25 report from The Fresno Bee, “Investigators are looking into the cause of the fire,” which police described as suspicious.\n\nThe timing of Lang’s death is suspicious to local activists, who reported that Lang had predicted his demise in recent, increasingly alarmed posts online. Dylan Donnelly documented Lang’s warnings in a Jan. 26 investigation for independent media site Fresno People’s News, noting that Lang had been “a frequent poster in the Fresno People’s Media group on Facebook and acquaintance to many in the Fresno activist community.”\n\nThe series of postings began on Jan. 13, when Lang shared his belief that police were targeting him not just for being an outspoken activist, but because he was exposing a policing “scheme” that he said targeted Fresno’s most disadvantaged residents. He wrote:\n\n“I also discovered local law enforcement had been running a license plate scanning scam where Fresno Cops would scan license plates at Retail Store parking lots (Save Mart, Von’s, HomeDepot, etc.) in lower income neighborhoods. After collecting hits of violations they then would pull the unsuspecting drivers over a few blocks away from the store location in a marked police vehicle claiming they simply came across their vehicle through routine driving patrols.”'\n\nUnder pressure from activists, other cities like Ferguson, St. Louis, have faced media attention and even federal investigations over their excessive use of traffic tickets to target poor and minority residents.\n\nFrom there, Lang’s post’s escalated to a point at which Donnelly said many believed he had become “paranoid.” On Jan. 14, Lang posted to the group: “If anything happens to me in the next day or two, it will be the result of Fresno PD, my neighbor, and an employee at my job Payless Tires and Brakes.”\n\nThe next day, he contacted Colin Hoggard, a reporter for local station ABC30, on Facebook, writing, “Corrupt Fresno Cops are going to try to kill me this weekend, possibly tonight.”\n\nIn the following days, Lang reached out to friends on the social media site, looking for someone who was a legal gun owner to come stay with him for protection.
