HONG KONG -- Rafa Cabrera Bello had four birdies and an eagle Thursday for an opening 6-under 64 and a one-stroke lead at the Hong Kong Open.I was in control of the round all day and putted nicely, too, so it was nice work out there, the Spaniard said.Sebastien Gros shot 65 at the Hong Kong Golf Club, while 11 golfers were tied for third with 66s.Masters champion Danny Willett and Ian Poulter were in a group of 10 with 68s at the joint European Tour and Asian Tour event.Im really annoyed, said Poulter, who made three birdies on his first four holes but struggled after that. Im probably going to need to go to a padded room for about half an hour and then Ill be all right.Defending champion and Olympic gold medalist Justin Rose, who pulled out of last weeks Hero World Challenge in Bermuda with a back injury, shot 70.Rose hit the flag for a near-albatross on the par-5 13th hole, eventually making eagle.I came off today in a lot better shape than the first round of the Hero last week, Rose said, so I feel optimistic that Im through the worst of it and can get better and stronger and looser every single day.

OAKLAND, Calif. -- Runner-up for Defensive Player of the Year in two straight seasons, Draymond Green desperately wants to prove how good Golden State can be on that end of the floor.Kevin Durant, Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson can have all the scoring glory. Green takes it personally when people question the Warriors D.Green blocked two shots in the final 43.4 seconds, Durant had 25 points and 14 rebounds, and the Warriors held off the Atlanta Hawks and their strong bench 105-100 on Monday night for a 12th straight victory that tied the third-longest streak in franchise history.I wouldnt necessarily say I have something to prove for that award, more so that people have kind of counted our defense out, said Green, back from missing one game with an ankle injury.Curry scored 25 points with four 3-pointers, and Thompson added 20 points as Golden States Big Three each reached 20 points for the second consecutive game.The Warriors won their seventh straight home game and fifth in a row against Atlanta at Oracle Arena.Durant knocked down a 3-pointer with 2:57 left in the third quarter that pulled Golden State to 76-73. Then, as the period wound down, he dribbled over midcourt and found Ian Clark for a long 3 to beat the buzzer and cut Atlantas advantage to 81-80.Durants jumper to start the fourth put the Warriors ahead, and Andre Iguodala followed with back-to-back baskets. Iguodala finished with 12 points, five rebounds and five assists.Dennis Schroder scored 24 points for the Hawks, and Tim Hardaway Jr. had 10 against his fathers former team. Dwight Howard added 14 points and 16 rebounds, while Paul Millsap had 14 points and 14 boards.We got to 100 and we havent seen that in a while, Millsap said. Its a good start. We played a tough team, a good team, so well build on the positives.Durant had a double-double in consecutive games for the second time this season and had his sixth performance with at least 20 points and 10 rebounds.Nobody can guard him, thats pretty much it, said Iguodala, who spent years trying to stop KD.In the first half, the Warriors hardly looked like their usual efficient selves on either end and trailed at halftime for the fourth time and second at home. They committed 11 turnovers that leed to 16 points for Atlanta, got burned on defense while giving up easy baskets and missed their own open looks in shooting just 45.dddddddddddd2 percent.Green returned after missing Saturdays hard-fought win against Minnesota because of a bruised left ankle sustained in a collision a night earlier at the Lakers that left Clark with a throat injury. Clark also sat out Saturday.Green quickly made an impact in this one, forcing a turnover on Atlantas first possession and emphatically pointing to signal it was Golden States ball. He dished out seven assists and first made a big block against Schroder before stuffing Kent Bazemore to finish with four blocks.The Warriors had double-digit blocks for an NBA-best fourth time this season.That was amazing. I dont know if Ive ever seen a sequence like that from one guy, coach Steve Kerr said. Draymonds amazing. He literally can guard anybody in the league.KD BOBBLEHEADSome fans lined up in their cars at the Oracle gates at lunchtime for a chance to be among the first 10,000 to receive the first Durant bobblehead with the Warriors.At the gates where the coveted dolls waited, members of the event staff closely guarded the special souvenirs.TIP-INSHawks: Atlantas bench contributed 37 points. ...
