momentary lapse of concentration as he

Pokey Chatman has seen how good the Indiana Fever can be from the opposing sideline. Now shell get a chance to lead them.The Fever hired Chatman as their new coach Friday, bringing in a WNBA veteran in hopes of continuing their annual visits to the postseason.I can remember when I first went to Chicago, quite frankly, I was trying to build a team to beat Indiana. What they had built was incredible and to see it from the inside out now is great, Chatman said. They have people who have been here for 14 years in this organization. It speaks volumes to whats going on here.Chatman will take over a team that has a rich history in the WNBA, winning a title in 2012 and reaching the playoffs for the past 12 years. Indiana was 17-17 this past year, losing in the first round. Coach Stephanie White left the Fever after the season to take over at Vanderbilt.My goal was to identify and hire someone who has extensive head coaching experience in the pro womens game and we are fortunate to bring Pokey to Indiana, said Kelly Krauskopf, the teams president and general manager. Her years of coaching elite level players, both in the WNBA and in Europe, bring us great experience and leadership. Her up-tempo philosophy on offense combined with her affinity for toughness on the defensive end fits our organization. I have watched her teams and admired how her players continuously improve from year to year.The 47-year-old Chatman was not retained by the Chicago Sky after this past season when she guided the team to an 18-16 record and an appearance in the WNBA playoff semifinals. She won 106 games in Chicago and led the team to its first-ever playoff appearance in 2013 and a trip to the WNBA Finals in 2014. Chicago made the playoffs in each of her last four seasons.I understand professional sports, Chatman said. I have a lot of pride in what we were able to accomplish in Chicago in six years. I think the competitor in me is sad I didnt win a championship.Now she has a new job nearly three weeks later.Im elated and excited about it, Chatman said of the chance to lead Indiana. I didnt really think about the time frame and how quickly it was until I read it somewhere. Im excited about it.The Fever will have a different look not only on the sidelines, but also on the court as longtime star Tamika Catchings retired. Indiana still has a strong nucleus with Briann Janaury, Erlana Larkins, Tiffany Mitchell and Marissa Coleman.I dont have to reinvent the wheel here on either side of the basketball, Chatman said. There are areas we want to enhance, but if it aint broke were not going to try and fix it.Before taking over Chicago in 2011, Chatman spent 16 years at LSU, her alma mater. The Louisiana native was an assistant from 1992-2004 before becoming the head coach. She was 106-19 as the head of that program, including a 15-5 mark when she was the interim leader in 2004 when longtime coach Sue Gunter left the team because of a lung disease.Chatman will just be the coach in Indiana. She also was the general manager in Chicago. Having one job now is something that Chatman was happy about.I am looking forward to just being the coach, she said. I also am looking forward to learning from Kelly. I did have that role before. Its nice to have eyes and ears and a conversation with someone who had so much success from a learning standpoint. I welcome the opportunity to learn and just focus on the basketball half.---Follow Doug on Twitter at http://www.twitter.com/dougfeinbergChicago White Sox Store .Y. - New York City has been selected to host the NBA All-Star weekend in 2015, with the game played at Madison Square Garden and the slam dunk contest and other skills events held at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.

After slipping from the summit during the week, the Gunners overcame struggling Crystal Palace 2-0 on Sunday thanks to Alex Oxlade-Chamberlains second-half brace.Twickenham played host to two Aviva Premiership matches on Saturday with the straight-forward win for Saracens over Worcester kicking things off, followed by Harlequins entertaining, nervy victory over Bristol. We were there to assess the early season form of the four sides and here are some of the key lessons learnt from the traditional Double Header.Bristol arent here to make up the numbersThey played with heart and ambition against Harlequins with Will Hurrell impressing on his debut alongside Gavin Henson, who played superbly until he was forced off through injury.Though they lost, Bristol look to have the right foundations for a Premiership campaign with the hugely experienced Jordan Crane steering things well at the back of the scrum while the brilliant Jack Lam causes all sorts of mischief at the breakdown.While they may need to bolster their squad in a manner similar to how Worcester did last season, perhaps their most important signing of the close season was their new defence coach Jonathan Thomas. The ex-Wales flanker has built a sturdy resilience in the Bristol ranks which will need to be stamped all over their gameplan if they are to retain their top-flight status.Alex Lozowski starts well for SaracensWith Owen Farrell watching on from underneath a baseball cap on the Saracens bench, it was down to young playmaker Alex Lozowski to pull the strings. Signed from Wasps in the summer, he joined Saracens with promising talent written adjacent to his name, but he has had to hit the ground running with Farrell sidelined by a back injury and Charlie Hodgson now retired.He played well against Worcester, directing the backs with aplomb and dovetailed well with Alex Goode with kicking from hand. He was on the wrong end of some rough justice from GJ Van Velze and a high shot from James Johnston but played the full 80 and looked right at home.Ben Teo needs a platform to shineWith Worcesters game plan focused on gaining territory through kicking, there were seldom opportunities for Teo to get hands on ball. His role was more focused around hard-hitting in defence -- Jamie George felt the full Teo force -- and restricting the space for Saracens backs.If Worcester are to improve on last seasons 11th-placed finish then they will need to add other dimensions to their approach. This was most likely one tailored to cope with the champions, and only when they play a more expansive game -- one where the ball gets beyond the fly-half -- will Teo be able to showcase his attacking potential.ddddddddddddJoe Marchants mixed afternoonThe 20-year-old is a talent and this run-out at Twickenham will be a key stepping stone in his development. He has the potential to rival Jonathan Joseph for the England outside centre berth and his brilliant finish in the first-half of Harlequins nervy win over Bristol showcased his wonderful footwork.Then came the slip for Ryan Edwards try where he succumbed to the slippery Twickenham turf and looked on despairingly as the Bristol winger dotted the ball down. But the potential is there, hes on Englands radar and this should be the campaign where he makes his breakthrough.Tom Varndell closes in on Mark Cuetos recordWhen Varndell dropped down to the Championship with Bristol, Cueto -- the Premierships record try-scorer Cueto -- have breathed a sigh of relief. His 90-try haul from his time at Sale is still the most scored in Englands top flight but Varndell is back with Bristol and his first-half score takes his tally to 86.Varndells finishing will be key for Bristol if they are to survive this season and he knows the Premiership like the back of his hand. However, he will want to forget his momentary lapse of concentration as he attempted to charge down a Ruaridh Jackson penalty.Forward pass ambiguity shows its ugly headNew rules were being enforced by the referees at Twickenham with officials cracking down on back chat as well as defenders kicking the ball out of the scrum-halfs hands as they prepare to pick it up from the base of the breakdown. But another needs sorting: the troublesome, debatable forward pass.In Friday nights spectacular match at Kingsholm, Leicesters first try through Manu Tuilagi looked for all the world as if there was a forward pass in the build-up. In Saturdays second match at Twickenham, the pass leading up to Tusi Pisis try looked suspect and then came Marland Yardes inside ball for Marchants sprint home which again seemed to be forward -- certainly the ex-pros on social media believed so.Referee Luke Pearce referred it to the TMO, Rowan Kitt, who said he didnt have a clear angle to show the referee. Pearce gave the benefit of doubt to the attacking side, calling on the directive that Yardes hands didnt appear to be pointed forwards, but ask 100 supporters on the street and 99 would say it went forward.
