MIAMI — Observations and other notes of interest from Tuesday night’s 109-99 victory over the New York Knicks: – In a vacuum, Terry Rozier getting on a heater would appear totally apropos. – At the moment, it seems just that. – With Tyler Herro still out. – Which only adds to the drama of what happens when/if Herro returns from the foot tendinitis that has had him out for more than a month. – Because we have yet to get to the point of knowing whether side-by-side Rozier and Herro works. – Or, for that matter, whether either can maximize his game if cast, instead, in an either/or alignment. –...

That makes this an exciting time to put up that for sale sign.But while conditions are great for sellers like you, you’ll still want to be strategic when it comes time to set your asking price. That’s because pricing your house too high may actually cost you in the long run.The Downside of Overpricing...

His remarks, invoking the U.S. atomic bombings of Japan during World War II while discussing his opposition to U.S. humanitarian aid for Gaza, drew swift condemnation, including at least one call for his resignation. He said that his remarks were taken out of context and that the...
