One Cavaliers fan thought he could do that, and it just cost him his job. The Twitter user, under the since-deleted handle @SoftCaramelKiss, went on a profanity-laced rant Wednesday directed at Stephen Curry’s sister, Sydel, and made a homophobic remark about Riley Curry, the 3-year-old daughter of the Warriors star.

“This is a team that’s more than capable,” Thompson said before Game 2. “They did beat the Atlanta Hawks twice without [Irving], and that was the best team in the East. So you have to respect what the other guys can do. Like any other team, someone’s going to go down and someone’s going to step up.” MORE: Must-see Finals photos | Left-for-dead rise in Oakland | Crazy end of regulation...

According to Yahoo Sports, several are interested in trading for Mozgov. The Cavaliers, however, have little incentive to trade the 7-1 big man whom they acquired from the Nuggets just last season, because he offers depth in the frontcourt and might be the team’s best shot blocker.

Croatian composer Elvis Stanić has accused CD Projekt RED of copyright infringement over The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt soundtrack. The soundtrack features a song called Widow-Maker and Stanić claims that this is a rip-off of his song, titled Naranča. The song was recorded for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt soundtrack by Mikołaj Stroiński and Marcin Przybyłowicz (who will be returning for Cyberpunk 2077) and was based on the 2012 album Songs from the Southern Slavs by the band Percival....

It’s no secret that Cyberpunk 2077 had a plethora of issues running on older console generations at launch, but over the course of last year, the development team of Cyberpunk 2077 has devoted their time to fix and eliminate these problems from all versions of the game. And now CD Projekt Red is looking to the future. RELATED: CD Projekt Red Can’t Keep Breaking Promises With Cyberpunk 2077 CD Projekt Red has narrowed down the release window for Cyberpunk 2077’s next generation console version, set to launch in the first quarter of 2022 on an unspecified date, shortly followed by the next-gen release of The Witcher 3 in the second quarter of 2022....

R onaldo yet to discuss Real future Ronaldo, Madrid’s record goalscorer, only signed a new five-year-deal last November, but is reportedly seeking to leave the Spanish capital following accusations he defrauded Spanish tax authorities out of €14.7million – a claim he strenuously denies. The 32-year-old is reported to view a return to United as his favoured option if he does depart the Santiago Bernabeu, with Ronaldo winning three Premier League titles, an FA Cup, two League Cups and the Champions League during a six-year stay at Old Trafford between 2003 and 2009....

In densely populated American cities, where traffic, parking and insurance are all prohibitive, car sharing is revving up. It makes good financial sense: Zipcars rent for $8.50 an hour on average and the renter doesn’t pay for insurance or gas (there’s a gas card for refills). There are now 15 car-sharing companies in about 20 U.S. cities and membership has doubled since last year. The biggest growth has been in two companies going national–Boston’s Zipcar and Seattle’s Flexcar....

The full-back has signed a five-year deal that reportedly contains a huge buyout option of at least €350 million. Contracts in La Liga are obliged to contain such clauses in order that, in principle, players have the freedom to move elsewhere even if their club is opposed to a transfer. Paris Saint-Germain exploited this requirement in spectacular fashion over the summer, as they paid a world-record sum of €222m to free Neymar from his Barcelona contract and bring him to Ligue 1....

Dortmund 11/2 to win Bundesliga Quanjian – coached by former Italy, Juventus and Real Madrid defender Fabio Cannavaro – were keen on Aubameyang and came close to signing the 28-year-old, who has scored seven goals in all competitions this term, but the CSL club will not make another move in January....

He is driven, but not by some inner hurt or buried longing. Citizen Case may understand the wired age the way the cinematic Citizen Kane grasped the potential of the tabloid newspaper, but inquiring reporters are not likely to find any Rosebud buried in his past. He has not been forged by adversity; he does not so much face down the naysayers as shrug them off. His modest and low-key father, a corporate lawyer in Honolulu, takes no credit for his son’s success....

France were given a contentious free-kick against that led to their first goal, and were later awarded a penalty for an Ivan Perisic handball that Croatia argued was not deliberate. Referring to the first incident, Casillas - world champion in 2010 - said on Twitter: ‘‘Honestly, I do not understand the use of VAR very well. The referee points out a foul that is not on Griezmann. Goal to France in that action....

The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) ruled that the IAAF could implement a regulation that would require Semenya to take medication to lower her testosterone levels in order to compete against women in track events ranging from 400 meters to a mile. However, the two-time Olympic 800 meters champion has continued to challenge the ruling and lodged an appeal in Switzerland last week. The 28-year-old asked the Swiss Federal Supreme Court to set aside the decision in its entirety....

Though there are always exceptions to the rule, it’s often the case that domesticated cats and dogs living side by side simply do not get along. According to Angie Bailey at Catster, the animosity can be traced back to the behavioral traits of the two species’ ancestors. “Dogs are descendants of naturally social wolves, while cats’ ancestors are Arabian wildcats, who were known primarily to be loners,” she explained. “Dogs have an instinct to chase small prey—especially if it’s fleeing....

In a video shared by user Aysha Clever (@ayshaclever) on January 12, a ginger tabby called Cheeto can be seen “co-parenting” her kittens with her friend—a white cat named Mellow—who has also recently given birth to felines of her own. However, it was the baby daddy reveal that caught TikTokers’ attention, with Cheeto and her pal’s kittens sharing the same father—a brown tabby named Moose. Users of the social media platform couldn’t get enough of the “beautiful blended family,” with the cute clip receiving over 1....

The brutal climate could finally be Lewis’s salvation. The place has been growing poorer and more desolate for generations, as young people seek sunnier prospects elsewhere. But now the energy industry has discovered the storm-swept island. The multinationals AMEC and British Energy are talking about plans to erect some 300 outsize wind turbines across a few thousand hectares of moorland and peat bog. If the £500 million project goes through, the array will be Europe’s largest wind farm, capable of churning out roughly 1 percent of Britain’s total electrical needs–and generating some badly needed jobs and cash for the people of Lewis....

The 85-year-old pope is well-loved by Catholics around the world for his tolerant and modern take on topics important to the Catholic Church. An Insider article reported that the pope reportedly sneaks out of the Vatican at night to visit with and give money to homeless people, has been accepting of gay Christians and strives to interact regularly with normal people.
