OAKLAND, Calif. -- At Warriors team headquarters, Zaza Pachulia sits alongside Kevin Durant in the locker room as they dress for practice or ice down each day afterward.They chat about life, not just basketball. Its these very moments and conversations, face to face and a few minutes without the distraction of their smartphones, that Pachulia is counting on to help new-look, star-studded Golden State begin to find a chemistry that will carry the group deep into the postseason once more. And, they hope, another championship.Pachulia is so passionate about it that he spoke up the other day, reiterating to his new teammates the importance of building relationships to reach the top.Understanding that its only been a week since weve been together, so were still trying to get to know each other on and off the court, said Pachulia, who accepted just $2.9 million to join the Warriors. Its very important. This team so far has been successful for a couple reasons -- obviously talent that we have and the chemistry they had before. Thats why Im mentioning on and off the court. Seven days you cant make everything happen but weve got to understand and were working on steps to move forward.Shortly before tipoff of Tuesday nights preseason blowout of the Clippers, Durant and Draymond Green briefly chatted during warmups and exchanged a snazzy handshake.Before the jump, Durant pointed to the crowd on either side of the court. Then, he immediately showed the Warriors and their adoring crowd at Oracle Arena just what he brings on both ends with that 7-foot-5 wingspan and ability to score and create shots for others.Durant has already said he expects a nightly double-double from himself.Thats the goal, he said. Im not saying it would be a for-sure thing. If you set your mind to something you can always do it. Nothings impossible. My teammates believe I can do it, the coaches believe I can do it. Its a matter of me going out and trying every night.He is challenging himself to do a better job rebounding to take pressure off Pachulia and fellow newcomer David West.Coach Steve Kerr, reigning NBA Coach of the Year, has warned it will take time for this All-Star Warriors bunch to find its way. He doesnt expect Durant to be perfectly comfortable yet, not a week into the preseason with only a limited number of practices with fellow starters Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Green and Pachulia.Kerr has pulled KD aside a few times to check in or go over a quick video clip as a learning tool. Durant is determined to become more instinctive on both ends.I let him know its cool to coach me up, Durant said. At any moment if I need to make a cut or set a screen, hes letting me know it would be a good time to do that.Durant believes he can learn and adjust on the fly, even if hes out of his comfort zone right now.Curry appreciates Durants drive.He has a great attitude when it comes to that, Curry said. Coach also has a great attitude about coaching everybody, no matter who you are. Weve got to remember were still in literally the first seven, eight days of this.There have been flashes already of what can be.West dished to Shaun Livingston for a dunk late in the first quarter, then Durant drove for a layup the next time down. Golden State led by 51 points -- 102-51 -- after three quarters in the 120-75 rout Tuesday.While Kerr warns about patience in putting things together, this was hardly a bad first look for the loyal home fans. He doesnt buy any big predictions from outsiders about his team at this early stage.This is a far different roster than the one that won an NBA-record 73 games last season and lost in Game 7 of the NBA Finals to Cleveland.Nobodys overly concerned about the adjustment process for Durant.Nothing really has surprised me. Hes so talented, hes such a good guy, hes such a good teammate, he cares about the team, he cares about people, Kerr said. Like anybody going to a new team, its not easy. Sometimes its harder going to a new team when youre a star than it is when youre a role guy and youre used to just finding that niche right away and nobodys talking about you and you figure it out.When youre the star and the spotlights on you and youre thinking all these thoughts about `What about shots for Steph and Klay and I dont want to screw anything up. I know Kevin thinks about all that stuff. Hes a wonderful guy, incredible talent. It will take some time. Obviously hes going to be great. Зарегистрируйтесь, чтобы увидеть ссылку! .

CHESTE, Spain -- Jorge Lorenzo of Spain won the season-ending Valencia Moto Grand Prix on Sunday, ending a 12-race winless streak in his final event before switching from Yamaha to rival Ducati.Lorenzo won from pole position, finishing ahead of champion Marc Marquez, Andrea Iannone and Valentino Rossi. The three-time champion, who hadnt won since the Italian GP in May, will be joining Ducati next year after nine seasons with Yamaha.This was my final gift to Yamaha, Lorenzo said.Marquez, who was crowned world champion two races ago, finished only a second behind Lorenzo after recovering from a poor start that dropped him from second to seventh by the first turn at the Valencia track in southern Spain.The biggest problem of the race was the start, I lost a lot of positions, Marquez said. But then it wasnt so difficult to overtake. I tried to stay calm and attack. With a couple more laps maybe I could have made the pass for the win.Loreenzo, in his 250th grand prix start, said he worried about losing the victory toward the end.dddddddddddd suffered those last 10 laps, he said. I knew he (Marquez) was attacking so I was pushing to the limit.Rossi, who finished second in the riders championship, ahead of Lorenzo, attracted most of the attention a few hours before the race when a video released on social media showed him using his left foot to shove a woman out of his way while he rode a non-racing motorcycle in the paddock.Dani Pedrosa fell out of contention after losing control of his bike and falling while running seventh early in the race.Johann Zarco won the Moto2 finale, while Brad Binder rallied from 22nd to secure victory in the season-ending event in Moto3. Zarco and Binder had already secured the titles in their respective series. ' ' '
