NEW YORK -- Right now it seems like nothing can stop Andy Murray.Well, maybe there is one thing.Ive always enjoyed playing here, I havent lost too many matches on this court, Murray told Darren Cahill on Arthur Ashe Stadium after his clinical 6-3, 6-2, 6-2 win over Lukas Rosol. He added with a smile: Armstrong is the one Ive struggled on. Hopefully I can play here a few more times.World No. 1 Novak Djokovic may still be a slight favorite among the bookmakers, but, on this evidence, Murray is the man to beat at the US Open.The Scots main rival at Flushing Meadows looked below his best in his opening win, and is dealing with wrist and elbow injuries to boot after shocking early exits at Wimbledon and in Rio.In contrast, Murray arrived at Flushing Meadows having reached seven straight finals; he is 33-2 since the Madrid Masters, winning his second Wimbledon title and Olympic gold medal along the way.The draw didnt throw up an easy opener for Murray in Rosol, a dangerous opponent on paper. There had been a little bad blood between the pair in Munich last year -- the Czech bumped into Murray at a change of ends and the British No. 1 told him that nobody likes you on the tour.But it was Murray here who knocked Rosol out of his way. Dressed all in black, he turned out the lights on the world No. 81 to sail into the second round.It was a clinical display from Murray -- the world No. 2 didnt drop his serve once, and raced through in just an hour and 50 minutes to set up a second-round meeting with Marcel Granollers.I served very well, I dont think I had any break points against me, that was good, Murray added. I used good variation on my second serve as well, which is important against someone who goes for big returns.It was a tough start, he had chances early on, but once I got a break up I started to relax and played well.This has been a remarkable year for Murray, and you get the feeling there could be something even more special to come.If he makes the final, he would become just the fourth man to reach all four major finals in a calendar year -- but he wont be aiming for anything less than a fourth Grand Slam title and second US Open title.Murray won the first of those here during his maiden spell with coach Ivan Lendl. Since we stopped working together, a lot has changed for both of us, Murray said.I feel Im more mature -- I have a family now, and Ivan has been coaching younger players, juniors. That changes your perspective a little bit. Its been a good start to our relationship again.Some things never change, though.His jokes are still the same, still not funny, Murray quipped of his coach. Russell Okung Jersey . PAUL, Minn. Joe Barksdale Jersey . Denis Coderre, the former federal MP who was elected mayor on Nov. 3, has drawn the ire of some Montreal Canadiens. During last nights game he tweeted: "Hello? Can we get a one-way ticket to (minor-league) Hamilton for David Desharnais please. http://www.chargersauthenticshop.com/Chargers-Dan-Feeney-Draft-Jersey/ . 9. Price, heading to the 2014 Olympics for Canada, was named the First Star after posting wins in three starts with a 1.00 goals-against average and a .971 save percentage. Antonio Gates Jersey .Y. -- Sabres forward Drew Stafford has witnessed plenty of turmoil during his eight seasons in Buffalo. LaDainian Tomlinson Jersey . Boucher previously coached the Tampa Bay Lightning and had a 97-78-20 record over two-plus seasons. He was dismissed by the team last March after the Lightning struggled in the lockout-shortened season with a 13-18-1 record. MIAMI -- Winning consecutive games at home for the first time all season isnt exactly something to celebrate, particularly when the season is nearly two months old.For the Miami Heat, its a start.Hassan Whiteside had 26 points and 22 rebounds, and the Heat clamped down defensively to beat the Indiana Pacers 95-89 on Wednesday night. Miami held the Pacers to 37 percent shooting and outrebounded them 58-38.Guess thats what you can expect with a Heat-Pacers game, regardless of who the faces are, Miami coach Erik Spoelstra said. It was good for us to grind out another one.No, this wasnt one of those playoff battles with the Pacers that featured LeBron James and Dwyane Wade almost always finding a way for the Heat in recent years. This time, it was the likes of Tyler Johnson and James Johnson coming up big, combining for 29 points off the bench -- and Whiteside simply controlling the paint during his 34 minutes.I try to lead by example, Whiteside said.Paul George scored 22 for the Pacers, who were hoping for a season-best third straight win and instead managed just 10 points in the fourth quarter. CJ Miles added 15 for Indiana.This is a game that we should have won, George said. Its frustrating. ... We played OK. We just didnt finish well.Neither team led by more than seven, and the Heat got to that margin after James Johnson found Goran Dragic for a layup and a 92-85 lead with 3:35 left.They needed to hang on desperately from there.Miami didnt score again until there were 12.9 seconds left, when Josh Richardson sealed the win with a dunk that put the Heat up five after Indiana didnt foul. The Pacers missed three 3-point tries that would have tied the game in the final 2 minutes, one by George and the last two byy Myles Turner.dddddddddddd.The Pacers shot 5 for 18 in the fourth. They went scoreless over a 7-minute stretch in the second half, and Miami took the lead for good during that drought.They basically muscled us and broke our offensive execution, Pacers coach Nate McMillan said.TIP-INSPacers: Monta Ellis (right groin strain) was sidelined again, and Rodney Stuckey played through a bruised left knee. ... This was the start of Indianas sixth of 17 back-to-backs this season. ... George has played 19 games at Miami, including playoffs. Indianas record in those games is 2-17.Heat: It was the fourth time Whiteside reached 20 points and 20 rebounds in the same game, the second this season. ... Justise Winslow returned from a 16-game absence due to a sore left wrist and scored two points in 21 minutes. ... Dragic missed his first seven shots before connecting on a pull-up for his first basket early in the third quarter. He shot 4 for 15. ... Dion Waiters (groin) missed his 10th consecutive game.`CANES VISITMiamis womens basketball team -- No. 13 in this weeks AP Top 25 -- was at the game, along with coach Katie Meier. For some, it was their first time at a Heat game. They were so excited, said Meier, whose team next plays Friday at Florida International.FREE THROWSIndiana came into the night as the leagues fourth-best team at the foul line, Miami as the very worst. The Pacers went 14 for 17, the Heat 14 for 25.UP NEXTPacers: Visit New Orleans on Thursday, the second game in a three-game, four-day trip.Heat: Host the Los Angeles Clippers on Friday, the third game on this six-game homestand.
