talking about a lot is just a chance for maybe a sprinkle showing up on wednesday. not in this five day, but maybe some will break into that ridge. all right mark is here now, it was symbolic. it didn't mean anything, just to have a win to close out the regular season with the warriors. it just puts them right into the playoffs. >> would have been a bummer to lose on the last night of the regular season. the highest exception level i would say clearly in 40 years since they won it back in the '75. usually, all you care about is winning. tonight, staying healthy. that was secondary. making sure he rested his starters. they still managed victory. putting the nuggets on a 67 win season. they're growing, their fans younger by the minute. green missing the three. andrew bogut, the wild save. steph says i'll take it, and do what i do. three. he had just 19 minutes of

playing time. 10 points. 3rd quarter, warriors up 9. harrison barnes up top for justin holiday. his brother plays on the pelicans. 4th quarter, warriors up only 3 on denver. marreese speights down the lane. he was a key to the win. 17 points. warriors up 5. nice movement by the second unit, ends up with james michael mcadue with the slam. they're happy on the bench, and 67 wins, 15 losses, including 39-2 at home. the warriors were aware early in the evening who they'd face in round 1. the pelicans of new orleans sure didn't back in. they beat the world champs. stole the ball there. anthony davis knew what to do with it. he would later seal the victory late with a jumper. the first playoff for the pelicans since 2011. they earn it on the last day of the season, beating out

oklahoma city. saturday, it's the real nba season. 12:30 tip against those pelicans. then monday for game 2 again at the oracle, the more typical start at 7:30. the real season does begin. but we're going to change the subject. the a's try to continue their mastery over the astros. giants winless at at&t so far. they'd better play some defense, because they sure ain't hitting. sports part 2, next. the beautiful sound of customers making the most of their united flight. power, wi-fi and streaming entertainment. that's... seize the journey friendly.

wow, six straight losses. if when all is said and done, the giants do have a successful season, we can say, remember when they were not just bad, they were boring to watch? she went to sleep early, i guarantee it watching this thing. tim lincecum. two on for nick arenado. way back and gone. three run homer. in the 8th inning, the giants down 4-1, a little noise off the bat of matt duffy. his firings big league homer. of course, it came with the bases empty, so they lose 4-2. last couple of years, the a's have feasted on the astros.

figured here we go again. not so fast. one of the guys who always excelled against the astros when he was wearing an a's uniform, that would be jed lowrie. comes back to haunt his former mates. lone a's highlight. defense. josh reddick again looking like the gold glover he is. the stros, as you watch reddick do his thing again, looking pretty good, as he robs jose altuve. team u.s.a. on the pitch. the stanford man scoring right there. got behind the defense. 2-0 over mexico in a friendly that they played down in san antonio. that's the sporting life for thursday night. frank, everybody looking forward to the warriors. >> yeah, saturday, can't wait. >> kind of a weird start. 12:30. hopefully they're awake and
