(SportsNetwork.com) - The Indiana Pacers will make a quick turnaround when they visit the Philadelphia 76ers Saturday at Wells Fargo Center. The Pacers needed overtime to dispatch the Boston Celtics last night at home and scored 13 of the 22 points in the extended time. Roy Hibbert shook off a sprained ankle to lead the Pacers with 19 points and 11 rebounds, while C.J. Miles tallied 17 points off the bench. C.J. Watson finished with 15 points along with eight boards and David Wests two free throws with 31.2 seconds to go in overtime sealed the win, Indianas fourth in the last six tries. The Pacers blew a double-digit lead in the fourth quarter and allowed 34 points. David was great down the stretch, Pacers coach Frank Vogel said. He was just big enough to help us close out the game. The Pacers have allowed 100 or more points in three straight games, but are second in opponents scoring at 96.8 ppg. They will face a Sixers team averaging an NBA-low 90.5 ppg. Philadelphia won for the second time in three games with Fridays 90-88 victory over the Brooklyn Nets. With the score knotted at 88-88, Sixers guard Michael Carter-Williams drove the lane and fed the ball to Nerlens Noel, who slammed it over Nets big man Mason Plumlee with 3.2 seconds left. A lot of credit to Michael for creating, Noel said. He got by his defender and I saw him driving my way. I found an open spot and he was able to find me and I finished. Brook Lopezs desperation 3-point attempt at the other end was off the mark and the 76ers held on to improve to 6-29 this season. Lopez tied the game on a jumper with 25.3 seconds remaining. Robert Covington led the 76ers with 20 points, Carter-Williams collected eight points, eight assists and seven rebounds, and Noel netted 12 points to go along with five boards and two blocks. The Sixers, who ended a five-game road losing streak in Brooklyn, picked up their first home win (1-15) of the season on Monday versus Cleveland and will also host Atlanta on this short homestand. Philadelphia dropped a 103-91 decision at Indiana on Oct. 29 in the season opener for both teams. They will meet again Feb. 20 in south Philly and March 1 at Indianapolis. Indiana has won four in a row against the 76ers, averaging 103.3 ppg in that stretch, and is 10-5 in the previous 15 games in the City of Brotherly Love. The 76ers havent lost five in a row in this series since a 10-game drought spanning the 1995-96 - 1998-99 seasons. Jevon Carter Suns Jersey .

Jalen Lecque Suns Jersey . - Quarterback Brady Quinn says he has been released by the Miami Dolphins.LANDOVER, Md. -- For his first preseason game as an NFL head coach, Jay Gruden said his goal was to "eliminate the chaos" on the sideline. Did he succeed? "It was chaotic more so for me than everybody else," the Washington Redskins coach said with a chuckle. "It was a little crazy just with all the headsets." Gruden only needed the offence pumped into his ears during his three years as an offensive co-ordinator with the Cincinnati Bengals. Now he was monitoring offence, defence and special teams and managing all the constituent parts. "Having 85 to 90 guys on the sideline," he said. "Its rough." History will record that Gruden managed his debut just fine. The Redskins beat the New England Patriots 23-6 Thursday night. "Unfortunately," he said, "it doesnt count." Robert Griffin III played only one series, and Tom Brady and most of the Patriots starters didnt play at all in a game that served mostly as an audition for players trying to move up the depth chart or simply make the roster. Griffin completed 2 of 4 passes for 9 yards, and Alfred Morris ran for 27 yards in an 11-play drive that ended with a 39-yard field goal from Kai Forbath. Forbath hit the right upright from 34 yards, but he was given a second chance because the Redskins were whistled for delay of game. "We came out and did what we wanted to do," Griffin said. "Got the 1s in and out, had an effective drive. Got some points, almost had a touchdown." That was enough Griffin for Gruden, who is in charge of reviving the Redskins -- and the franchise quarterback, in particular -- after last years 3-13 tension-filled season that got coach Mike Shanahan fired. Gruden, 47, looked boyish manning the sideline in a burgundy horizontal-striped team shirt, while New Englands Bill Belichick sported the more traditional Patriots short-sleeve blue -- it was too warm for his hoodie. Griffin, who didnt get to play in the preseason a year ago while rehabbing from major knee surgery, said Gruden was "funny" on the sideline -- an adjective most definitely not associated with Shanahan. "Hes not telling me knock-knock jokes as hes giving me plays," Griffin said, "But just on the sideline, youu kind of get to see how (the coaches) dialogue.dddddddddddd They have a good time on the sideline and thats good to see." The Patriots held sway earlier in the week when the teams held three days of joint practices at Washingtons training camp facility in Richmond, Virginia. The sessions showed the Redskins have a ways to go before they can match the polish and efficiency of a perennial Super Bowl contender. So Thursday turned into a well-deserved day off for all but nine of New Englands projected opening day starting 22, including Brady, top off-season acquisition Darrelle Revis, receivers Danny Amendola and Julian Edelman and linebacker Jerod Mayo. Tight end Rob Gronkowski also remains out as he recovers from knee surgery. The backups failed to do much to pick up the slack. Ryan Mallett started at quarterback and completed 5 of 12 passes for 55 yards. Second-round pick Jimmy Garoppolo played the second half and went 8 for 12 for 141 yards, including a 26-yard touchdown to Brian Tyms. "I didnt think really we did very many things the way we wanted to do them tonight," Belichick said. "We just werent very good in any phase of the game. We had the ball on the ground. Didnt play well enough on defence. Didnt move the ball, were in too many long-yardage situations. Not good enough in the kicking game. So just overall, weve got a lot of work to do." The Redskins prized free agent pickup, receiver DeSean Jackson, was also sidelined after hurting his left ankle during Wednesdays practice. Among others sitting out for Washington were receiver Pierre Garcon, safety Ryan Clark and safety Phillip Thomas -- all nursing hamstring injuries. Kirk Cousins and Colt McCoy each threw touchdown passes for the Redskins, who have won seven consecutive preseason games. Last year they won more games in the preseason (four) than in the regular season (three). Cousins finished 9 for 13 for 103 yards. McCoy was 8 for 9 for 102 yards. Notes: Patriots second-year defensive tackle Chris Jones left with an ankle injury. ... Forbath, facing a challenge from draft pick Zach Hocker, was short on a 46-yard attempt and put a kickoff out of bounds, while Hocker made field goals from 27 and 39 yards. ' ' '
