NEW YORK -- The Toronto Raptors are the only thing standing between the Brooklyn Nets and a perfect 2014. Anthony Rendon Jersey . Patrick Patterson stole Deron Williams inbounds pass and made the go-ahead jumper with six seconds left, and the Raptors stopped a five-game winning streak by the Nets for the second time this month with a 104-103 victory Monday night. Toronto dropped Brooklyn to 10-2 in January and opened a 2 1/2-game lead in the Atlantic Division over the Nets, who would be on the doorstep of the division lead if they could solve their neighbours to the north. "These guys are chasing us but theyre putting it together. Theyre playing well," Raptors point guard Kyle Lowry said. "Were the only team that beat them in 2014. I mean, thats a tough team. They had the game and we made a play and we made a shot." Brooklyn had a three-point lead with 17 seconds left behind Paul Pierce in his best game with the Nets, but John Salmons scored on a drive with 12 seconds remaining before Brooklyn took its last timeout to move the ball into the frontcourt. Patterson stole the pass and fed Lowry, who got it back to Patterson for his jumper. Pierce was well off on a final attempt. "We knew they didnt have any timeouts. We guessed right and Patrick looked like Richard Sherman out there with that steal," Lowry said, referring to the Seattle Seahawks defensive back who attended the game with a number of his teammates. Lowry finished with 31 points and seven assists for the Raptors, who clinched a winning record in consecutive months for the first time since December 2009 and January 2010. Pierce scored 33 points, making seven three-pointers in a strong bounce-back performance after going just 2 for 10 in his emotional return to Boston on Sunday. He had the Nets in position to win after scoring their last nine points before Toronto stole it. "Last night was a tough game to play in, so many emotions," Pierce said. "It was good to just get some normalcy back today and I felt comfortable, relaxed. But it wouldve been better if we got the win today, though." The stunning turnaround deflated the crowd at Barclays Center for a back-and-forth game that drew a visit from several Seahawks, who will hold their Super Bowl media day Tuesday at the Nets last home, the Prudential Center in Newark, N.J. Sherman and Bobby Wagner grabbed a baseline seat in the first half, while Russell Wilson and other players sat above in a private box. Jonas Valanciunas had 20 points and 13 rebounds for the Raptors, who played without injured leading scorer DeMar DeRozan. Terrence Ross, who tied a franchise record with 51 points and made 10 3-pointers Saturday, had a quiet 10 points on 3-of-9 shooting. But Toronto got a big boost from Patterson, who ditched the mask he began the game with for a recent broken nose and finished with 15 points off the bench. "This is all about our toughness, our resiliency," Patterson said, "no matter whos out there during the course of the game, no matter whos not playing." Andray Blatche scored 20 points for the Nets, who lost 96-80 in Toronto on Jan. 11, a night after they played two overtimes in a victory over Miami. Lowry scored six straight points before Amir Johnson made a pair of free throws during an 8-0 run that gave Toronto a 94-85 lead with about eight minutes to play. The Nets answered with nine in a row to tie it on Alan Andersons jumper, and after Valanciunas basket, Pierce nailed consecutive three-pointers to make it 100-96 with 2:37 remaining. "Paul played well," teammate Kevin Garnett said. "He totally carried us for that fourth quarter, that second half, and we all came in and just said at the end of the game weve got to make plays, weve got to close games out and tonight we didnt do that." Toronto cut it to one and had a chance for the lead when Lowry stole Williams pass intended for Pierce, but Williams redeemed himself by drawing an offensive foul on Lowry with 19 seconds left. Pierce then made two free throws, but the Nets couldnt overcome Williams next giveaway. "Two turnovers in the last minute of the game, its not what I typically do, but thats how it goes sometimes," Williams said. There were eight lead changes in an entertaining second quarter, two in the final 1.3 seconds. Andersons three-pointer put the Nets up by two, but Lowry beat the buzzer from beyond halfcourt to give Toronto a 57-56 halftime lead. NOTES: DeRozan had made 125 consecutive starts. ... Ross, DeRozan and the Nets Mirza Teletovic were all nominated for last weeks Eastern Conference player of the week award, which was won by Atlantas Paul Millsap. Joe Blanton Jersey . The Canucks figured to be active prior to Wednesdays trade deadline, getting a jump on things the previous day when they dealt goaltender Roberto Luongo to the Florida Panthers for netminder Jacob Markstrom and forward Shawn Matthias. Washington Nationals Jerseys . LeBron James believes hes a major reason for their early failures. http://www.baseballnationalsauthority.com/Michael-Taylor-Jersey/ . -- Thirty years ago, the Detroit Pistons beat the Denver Nuggets 186-184 in triple overtime, a game that remains the highest scoring in NBA history.Well begin with the best hockey action figures McFarlane Toys has ever created -- and what "best of" list doesnt feature The Great One, Wayne Gretzky? No "best of" list we want any part of! The old Oilers jersey, the signature Gretzky Jofa helmet, and the attention to detail on his face all make this figure a "great one."The goaltender position is our personal favourite for the figures because we love the detail McFarlane puts in to the pads and masks. The Dominik Hasek figure is a specifically cool looking toy because hes been created in the typical stance Hasek always took before flopping and slithering around the crease.Next on the list is another goalie -- Patrick Roy himself. The positioning of Roy mid-save is really cool, along with the detail in his helmet design... although we wouldnt mind seeing a Montreal Canadiens version.Sergei Fedorov is known for his unique style of play with the Detroit Red Wings, but we tip our hats to the creative team making this toy for finding an excuse to paint the incredible Mighty Ducks of Anaheim jersey on this figure! Fedorov only played with the Mighty Ducks for two seasons, but this is magnificent.This next figure embodies everything that Alexander Ovechkin represents... just look at it!And to round out our best of, weve got Darryl Sittler rocking the old school Maple Leafs jersey with some great flow coming out the sides and back of his helmet. Hes even a beauty in action figure form!And now for the worst... the "why did you even make action figures of these players" list, starting with goaltender Dan Cloutier. In the thick of Cloutiers three impressive seasons in Vancouver, McFarlane toys decided to cash in on the goaltenders success... only to watch him fall out of favour with Canucks management after a series of injuries, a lack of playoff success, and a weak goal let in during a 2002 playoff game against the Detroit Red Wings that has seemed to define his career.We love Tie Domi, and think he is semi-deserving of an aaction figure, but this specific pose is unacceptable for a player of Domis likeness. Adam Eaton Jersey. . First of all, hes skating. Second of all, his gloves are still on. And third, his fists arent in the air waiting to fight an opponent! McFarlane really dropped the ball on this one!We would have also accepted a figure of a fan falling into the penalty box with Domi, but we digress...The inconsistency of Andrew Raycroft is something Toronto Maple Leafs fans are familiar with, who is next on our worst hockey action figure list. We can see why the figurine was made, as Raycroft was an up and coming stud in the NHL, but his career never fully panned out as he floated from team to team before heading to Europe.We hate to keep picking on former Maple Leafs goaltenders, but the player who played side-by-side with Raycroft is the next action figure choice were pondering -- Vesa Toskala. All we really need to mention is Rob Davisons attempt to clear the puck out of his defensive zone and it bouncing over Toskalas glove and into the net to justify us putting this hockey action figure on our worst of list. Does that play deserve an action figure? We think not!Patrick Lalime was a fine starting goaltender who could be argued as a star, but Joe Nieuwendyk discovered Lalimes five-hole one faithful evening and unfortunately thats the entire reason he probably didnt deserve this action figure. Maybe its fitting hes just drinking water in the figurine.And finally, at one point we would have argued Jonathan Cheechoo fully deserved a figurine made of him, but after his 56 goal season in 2005-06 his production numbers began to fall drastically. Perhaps hell make a triumphant return and prove us wrong, but we arent going to bet the house on it.All the photos used in this post were taken from the McFarlane Sports Picks Hockey page.
