Brown Aims for First NBA Title with Pistons
Detroit coach Larry Brown seeks his first NBA championship as the Pistons prepare for Game 1 of the finals against the Lakers in Los Angeles. He defends his team’s “play the right way” approach while weighing a possible use of Hack-a-Shaq on Shaquille O’Neal, who struggles at the line in the playoffs.

Hopkins Sparks Referee Fight Over Cortez Choice
Bernard Hopkins threatened to pull out of a $15 million deal with Oscar De La Hoya if referee Joe Cortez stayed assigned to their bout. Nevada officials said Cortez would not be forced out, and Hopkins’s camp contends he only learned of Cortez on Thursday. Hopkins stands to earn at least $1.25 million to defend his undisputed middleweight titles against Robert Allen, with a possible $10 million payout if both bouts succeed on September 18.
