NEW YORK -- Detroit Pistons coach Stan Van Gundy says he has used the term posse before, and it was always in regards to minorities.A day after LeBron James criticized Knicks President Phil Jackson for using the word in an interview to describe James friends and business partners, Van Gundy was reflective Wednesday when thinking about his own words, calling on people to be aware of their language and attitudes.Im going to be perfectly honest here, Ive used that word before, OK, Van Gundy said, and when that all came out I had to ask myself, have I ever used that word before with a white player, and the answer is no. So, I think, look, you have to be aware of the language and you have to be aware a little bit of your own biases if youre going to overcome them and so I took that seriously.In the ESPN interview , Jackson recalled a time when James asked for the Miami Heat to stay over in Cleveland while on a road trip, a request that put coach Erik Spoelstra in a bind.You cant hold up the whole team because you and your mom and your posse want to spend an extra night in Cleveland, Jackson said.Van Gundy, speaking before his Pistons played the Knicks, said he never used the term publicly but had when speaking with people he knows and it has never been in conjunction with a white player.And so I think at the time where youre going to call out other people on attitudes, I think you need to be willing to look in the mirror and call yourself out, he added. I dont think Ive used that term in a long, long, long time, but I think going back to my days as an assistant when I was younger I know in the past I have used that term. Im just being honest and its not right.Adidas NMD R1 Womens NZ . Booth picked up 65 caps after making her national team debut in 2002 at the age of 17.

Arroyo tossed a seven-hitter for his sixth career shutout, beating Tim Lincecum and the Giants 11-0 Monday night for his first regular-season victory in San Francisco and No. 100 with the Cincinnati Reds. Arroyo (9-7) struck out six and didnt walk a batter in his 15th career complete game, a 108-pitch gem that ended in 2 hours, 45 minutes. He had run support, and then some. "Guys just kept hitting," he said. "I didnt know how many hits we had and I looked up in the ninth and it was 17 hits. Thats unbelievable." Devin Mesoraco and Shin-Soo Choo homered in the second inning off Lincecum, pitching for the first time since his no-hitter at San Diego. Jay Bruce also hit a solo homer, Todd Frazier added a three-run double and Derrick Robinson, a late addition to the lineup, had three hits. The Reds finished with nine extra-base hits. "I couldnt have ordered it up any better than that," manager Dusty Baker said. Robinson also provided the defensive highlight. Jeff Francoeurs two-out fly to centre in the ninth appeared destined for the other side of the fence, and even Arroyo thought his shutout was gone. Robinson instead made a leaping grab after the ball initially popped out of his glove. Lincecum (5-10) was roughed up in his first start since throwing his first career no-hitter in a 148-pitch performance July 13. The two-time NL Cy Young Award winner received a rousing ovation during pregame introductions, then immediately struggled while pitching on eight days rest after tossing the 15th no-hitter in franchise history and seventh since the club moved West in 1958. The Giants were handed their most lopsided shutout loss since getting beaten 11-0 by Arizona on Aug. 27, 2009. "Honestly, its a little bit embarrassing," first baseman Brandon Belt said. "Its something we definitely want to change. We can stop it right now and go out and win a couple of ballgames and be right back in it." Cincinnati denied Bruce Bochy his 1,500th career victory as a manager. He is trying to become the 21st skipper to reach the milestone. Detroits Jim Leyland and Baker are the only active managers with more victories. Lincecum matched his career high by allowing three home runs, the third time hes done it. He was tagged for a career-high eight earned runns and nine hits in 3 2-3 innings, hardly the way the right-hander wanted to come out after his gem at Petco Park.dddddddddddd "They didnt miss any mistakes off him," Bochy said. "I do think the first inning took a toll on him. Youre so close to getting out of it and Im sure that was deflating for him." Cincinnati opened an 11-game West Coast trip that takes the Reds to all three California NL West cities with an emphatic win against the defending World Series champions. San Francisco rallied from a 2-0 deficit in the NL division series last fall to stun the Reds -- becoming the first team in major league history to rally from three games down in a best-of-five series with three straight road wins. "I said yesterday, the times we have slid downhill out here on the West Coast, its because weve gotten off to a bad start," Arroyo said. "It was important for us to get off good today, and this is about as good as you can get. Saved the bullpen a bit, those guys have been working hard over the last three games, and the bats came alive as good as they have all year." The teams will play a traditional doubleheader Tuesday in which the Reds will wear their Sunday home uniforms -- white pants with red tops -- as the visiting team and bat last in the nightcap, a makeup for a July 4 rainout at Great American Ball Park. Choo began the game with a double and Robinson followed with a bunt single, then Frazier doubled three batters later. After Mesoraco led off the second with a homer and Choo connected two batters later, Bruce hit his team-leading 20th clout in the third. San Francisco is winless in four games against the Reds this season, getting outscored 25-3. NOTES: Lincecum has allowed 16 runs in the first inning this year. ... The Giants will call up LHP Eric Surkamp to pitch Tuesdays opener, his first start in the big leagues since Sept. 28, 2011, after recovering from Tommy John surgery. He is from Cincinnati. ... Baker improved to 17-14 as a visiting manager at AT&T Park (7-6 with the Cubs, 10-8 for the Reds). He departed as Giants skipper following an NL pennant in 2002. ... The Reds lead the majors with 11 wins on Mondays. ... Giants RHP Ryan Vogelsong, who begins a rehab assignment Tuesday in the Arizona Rookie League after breaking bones in his right pinkie on May 20, turned 36. ... San Francisco reliever George Kontos threw a career-high 63 pitches in 3 1-3 innings. ' ' '
