SAN ANTONIO -- In the first NBA Finals game of his reign
as the leagues commissioner, Adam Silver had to deal with
a sweltering arena.

hes gone through in recent weeks, that seemed like a
breeze. Speaking to The Associated Press on Friday at an
NBA Cares event, Silver said hes thrilled that the
leagues attention can be on the championship series
between the Miami Heat and San Antonio Spurs -- and not,
as it was for so much of the post-season, on the off-the-
court matters involving the banishment of Los Angeles
Clippers owner Donald Sterling and now the looming sale
of that franchise. "No question," Silver said. "In
fairness to all the players and the teams, they worked so
hard to get to this moment and a hot building is part of
the competition in essence. And all those other things
that weve been talking about the last several weeks are
not." Posing for photos with Spurs players, coach Gregg
Popovich, general manger R.C. Buford and others, Silver
was all smiles when the ceremonial red ribbon was cut at
the leagues latest "Learn & Play Center" at a San Antonio
elementary school. Its the 897th time that the league has
been involved with opening a facility like that, and
another similar event will be held in Miami when the
series shifts there next week. Silver made no prediction,
other than saying he thinks the Heat-Spurs matchup could
be a long series. He also said he was satisfied that the
air conditioning issues that overshadowed Game 1 have
been cleared up and will not affect play when the series
resumes in San Antonio on Sunday night. "We learn
something new all the time," Silver said. "The league
checklist continues to get longer, the things that we
need to ensure are functioning properly before games."
The Sterling matter was Silvers first true test since
taking over for David Stern as commissioner, and many
players raved about his response, both in terms of
message and swiftness. Silver barred Sterling for life
after the longtime owner acknowledged making racist
comments on tape, plus fined him $2.5 million. Now, the
Sterling matter looks to be essentially over. The
Clippers are poised to be sold to former Microsoft CEO
Steve Ballmer for $2 billion, and Sterlings attorney said
earlier this week that issues between Sterling and the
NBA will be resolved without need for a lawsuit -- a
decision that basically clears the biggest hurdle that
would have precluded a sale. "Im pleased and proud that
the attention is on the greatest basketball in the
world," Silver said.

The weekend at Oriole Park has been less kind, with three
players suffering varying degrees of injury. The worst
ailment of the three, at least optically, is the deep
bone bruise suffered by Adam Lind when he fouled a pitch
off the top of his right foot in the sixth inning of
Saturdays game.

the last four holes to reach 12-under 132 on TPC San
Antonios AT&T Canyons Course. He won his only title in a
PGA Tour-sanctioned event in 2002 in the Web.com Tours
LaSalle Bank Open.Im not going to lose any sleep, believe
me, Dawson said. I used to be a perfectionist, but my
attitude now is to play like Im in the pro-am.CHARLOTTE,
N.C. -- J.B. Holmes was a 3-foot putt away from winning
the Wells Fargo Championship when he backed away to size
up the situation. This wasnt about pressure. He was just
happy to be there. Nearly three years removed from brain
surgery, Holmes was in a far better place Sunday at Quail
Hollow. His 3-foot bogey putt gave him a 1-under 71 and a
one-shot victory over Jim Furyk, capping a remarkable
comeback from a health issue that wouldnt be classified
as the garden variety in golf. Not many other guys keep a
piece of their skull in a container in their closet.
"Just enjoying the moment," Holmes said. "You dont get
that very often, so getting up and thanking God for
letting me have the opportunity to do it. Whether I made
it or not, just enjoy being there." He made it more
stressful than he needed, with two bogeys on the last
three holes and an 8-foot par putt on the other. Jason
Bohn had the best chance to catch Holmes, one shot behind
until pulling a 4-iron into the water on the par-3 17th
and making double bogey. Phil Mickelson never had a
chance, missing four putts from the 4-foot range and
closing with a 76 to finish out of the top 10. It was the
third PGA Tour win for Holmes, and by far the sweetest.
Three years ago, he began to feel dizzy, and it wasnt
much longer when he was diagnosed with structural defects
in the cerebellum known as Chiara malformations. He had
brain surgery -- twice. The first time was to remove a
piece of his skull. The second time was from an allergic
reaction to the adhesive that was holding the titanium
plate to the base of the skull, causing severe headaches.
If that wasnt enough, he injured his left elbow from
hitting too many golf balls in a rush to return. Holmes
spent a year getting more cortisone shots that he cared
to remember, and when he broke his ankle while roller
blading for exercise last year, he used that time to have
elbow surgery. "Its been a long journey for me," Holmes
said. "Ive had some ups and downs. Its a great feeling to
be out there and to get one done." Holmes made enough key
putts to allow for some mistakes at the end. He ran off
three birdies in a four-hole stretch around the turn,
including a 30-footer on No. 11 that opened up a two-shot
lead. He gouged a fairway metal out of the rough on the
par-5 15th to set up a 6-foot birdie putt that stretched
his lead to three shots. Perhaps the biggest putt of all
was an 8-foot par save on the 17th hole. That kept his
lead at two shots, and he needed it. Instead of playing
an irron off the tee, he drove into the right rough, came
up well short of the green and chipped weakly to 45 feet.

locker room when Holmes knocked in the bogey putt to
finish at 14-under 274. Martin Flores, in his first time
playing in the last group, fell too far back with a
three-putt bogey on the 13th. He made bogey on the 18th
for a 72 and was third, the best finish of his PGA Tour
career. Bohn also bogeyed the 18th for a 70 to finish
fourth. Bohn received a bad time on the 16th hole -- one
more would have been a one-shot penalty -- and said he
let it get to him. "I didnt feel comfortable with the
wind starting to gust up a little bit, and I went ahead
and hit it anyhow in a situation that I probably would
have backed off in," Bohn said. "So Im more disappointing
in myself and the way that I handled that than the golf
shots that I hit." Still, the biggest disappointment
might have been Mickelson. He was in great shape going
into the final round, two shots out of the lead, and the
two players ahead of him stalled at the start. Instead,
Mickelson matched his highest final round on the PGA Tour
since The Barclays in 2012. And it was an old nemesis --
short putting -- that did him in. Mickelson three-putted
from 15 feet on No. 8. He missed a 3-foot par putt on the
11th, a 4-foot birdie putt on the 14th and four-putted
from 30 feet on the 16th. "I had two great rounds and I
had two pathetic rounds this week," Mickelson said. "The
greens putted perfectly, even though I didnt." The
challenge came three others, with a series of eagles that
injected some drama into Quail Hollow, if only briefly.
Furyk chipped in for eagle from off the 15th green and
then closed with three straight pars for a 65 to sit in
the clubhouse at 13-under 275. Bohn holed out a sand
wedge from 95 yards on the par-5 10th hole that
disappeared into the cup on the third bounce. He also
chipped in for birdie on No. 12. Flores chipped in for
eagle from short of the 10th green that allowed him to
tie for the lead, but only until Holmes made a short
birdie putt of his own on No. 10. Holmes ran in the long
birdie putt on the next hole for a two-shot lead, and he
stayed in control the rest of the way. Holmes still has
that container with a piece of his skull somewhere in his
closet. He doesnt use it as inspiration. Hes not even
sure where it is. So when asked if he would put the
trophy from Wells Fargo next to it, Holmes chuckled. "Ill
put the skull in the trophy," he said.
