DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — At a time when the United States hopes to exert maximum pressure on Iran, a regional bloc created by Gulf Arab countries to counter Tehran looks increasingly more divided ahead of the anniversary of the diplomatic crisis in Qatar. The sheer lack of cooperation by the six members of the Gulf Cooperation Council already has seen the U.S. limit some military exercises and send Secretary of State Mike Pompeo to the region to urge allies to end the boycott of Qatar, a tiny, gas-rich nation.

But there’s still drama. Who is going to be the NBA Finals’ Most Valuable Player? The crowd at Oracle had a favorite candidate. When Cleveland’s J.R.

The Warriors are going to miss this place. We’re a long way from the fall of 2019, when the defending NBA champions move into their new San Francisco arena in Mission Bay, but there’s a growing air of nostalgia around Oracle Arena, where the Warriors defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers 122-103 Sunday night to take a 2-0 lead in the Finals. In short, Oakland ain’t San Francisco — and that’s a two-way street. This is the fourth straight season the Warriors... Читать дальше...

St. Louis right-hander Michael Wacha lost a no-hit bid in the ninth inning for the second time in his career, denied when pinch-hitter Colin Moran led off with a single Sunday, but the Cardinals still beat Pittsburgh 5-0 in St. Louis. “It’s just a slight disappointment because I wanted it,” Wacha said. “I’ve flirted with it a couple of times. It just didn’t happen. Maybe next time.” In 2013, Wacha was an out away from a no-hitter when Washington’s Ryan Zimmerman got an infield single. Читать дальше...

WASHINGTON (AP) — Medicare recipients filled fewer prescriptions for pricey brand-name drugs — but spent more on such meds anyway, says a government report due out Monday. It blames rising manufacturer prices for squeezing older people and taxpayers.

But beneficiaries' share... Читать дальше...

In the waning moments of Game 2 of the NBA Finals, ABC's cameras caught Cleveland Cavaliers superstar LeBron James looking dejected while sitting on the Cavs' bench.

Before Game 2 of the NBA Finals, there was one question on fashion followers’ minds: Would Cleveland Cavaliers small forward LeBron James again wear the gray Thom Browne shorts suit he wore to Game 1? The answer was yes, and he had some company on the Warriors when it came to knee-revealing ensembles. In what could easily be a strategy out of any high school in-crowd flick, Warriors forward Draymond Green also wore a shorts suit pregame, exactly the kind of unnerving fashion strategy...
