Mat Belcher?and Will Ryan returned from Rio de Janeiro with, perhaps, the strangest memory of any athlete at the Olympic Games; even Ryan Lochte.The silver medal winners in the mens 470 two-person dinghy, behind Croatias Sime Fantela and Igor Marenic, saw a dead dog wearing a football jumper during the competition in Guanabara Bay.Were not sure if it was the losing team or the winning team, Belcher told ESPN.The photos of couches in the water and pollution taking over the bay showed the substance behind the never-ending stories concerning the quality of the water hosting the sailing events off Marina da Glória, but Belcher and Taylor were unfazed.The water obviously wasnt great, there was two main concerns. One was the general quality of the water and the other component was the debris and rubbish that was in the water that really can have a direct impact on the race, Belcher said.On our first trip over we saw a 5m dead whale floating along inside the bay, so that was a bit different.Away from the pollution, reports of robberies, both real and fake, and the disappointing return of the Australian team, Chef de Mission Kitty Chiller attracted more press than perhaps even she wanted - much of it critical. Boomers star Andrew Bogut has fired up again this week, but Belcher and Ryan are unabashed fans of Chiller, saying she did an amazing job.Its pretty difficult for her at the moment but she really cared and gave us athletes great support. She created an amazing environment and it was a privilege to have her lead us. Unfortunately the press and some of the things that are coming out of it dont reflect what it was like to be a part of that time. I really think shes done an amazing job.Having spent the vast majority of their lives sailing and living on boats, the duo are looking forward to taking time off before seeing what the future holds.We both feel we can be better and we really enjoy it so well give it some time to rest and have a look at what opportunities are around, Ryan said.Belcher, a gold medal winner with Malcolm Page at London 2012, meanwhile, said we both feel we can be better and we really enjoy it, but well give it some time to rest and then see what the future holds.Coach Victor Kovalenko has stated that Rio will be his last Olympic campaign, but Ryan will do what he can to get the team back together for another gold medal tilt.Mats easy; I can just bribe him with a few coffees. But Victor could take some more time to come around.The door for Tokyo hasnt been closed, even Belcher is leaving questions open.You might see us again in four years. Yannick Ngakoue Youth Jersey .

In this one, Atlanta responded with a season-high scoring effort and shot a season-best 53.5 percent from the field.I thought our energy was better tonight, Howard said. We locked in on defense and we forced some of their guys to take tough shots. I thought last game they just got any shot they wanted.The Raptors made the game close down the stretch with 39 points in the fourth quarter, closing to within three on DeMar DeRozans layup with 10.6 seconds left. However, Dennis Schroder converted a free throw with 6.7 seconds to re-establish a four-point Atlanta edge, and Kyle Lowrys miss on a 3 with 1.9 seconds left ended Torontos comeback effort.Despite the frantic finish, overall Atlanta coach Mike Budenholzer was pleased with his teams defensive effort.The first half I thought the defense was very good, theres maybe some slippage in the second but anytime you can come in here and get a win, you are doing something on both ends of the court, he said.Kyle Korver did his best to help on the offensive end with a season-high 19 points, including a season-high six 3-pointers, while Schroder added 24 points.For the Raptors, DeRozan had 34 points, his third straight 30-point outing and 14th of the season to tie a career high, with Lowry adding another 24, including a season-high-equaling six 3-pointers, as Toronto saw its four-game winning streak come to an end.

It doesnt take a rocket scientist to figure out where our problem is.While Lowry agreed with his coachs assessment, he was also happy to give credit to Atlanta, particularly given the 128-84 score the last time the two teams met.They played aggressive and they played like they wanted to win, he said. Tip our hats to them, its one game for us and they beat us fair and square.
