Scott McLaughlin and Jamie Whincup have urged Supercars organisers to run longer races in New Zealands sole meet for next year after a bland days racing at Pukekohe Park on Saturday.In the series penultimate meet, there wasnt a successful overtaking move by the top seven drivers across 70 laps except for moves off the grid.The reversion to four 100km races has negated the use of pit-stops, and therefore any strategy as the drivers championship comes down to the wire.Hot competition between the series-leading Red Bull duo of Shane van Gisbergen and Jamie Whincup gave the big crowd plenty to cheer for, but it was hard to shake the impression that New Zealand racing fans were being short-changed.McLaughlin said the cost of crossing the Tasman Sea explained the decision to run shorter races and leave fuel rigs back in Australia.I personally dont like it, the 23-year-old said.I understand why we do it, saving costs and fuel rigs and all that.A strategy always mixes it up but at the end of the day weve got to think about the teams as well.Whincup agreed with his young colleague.Pit stops are good and I think we should do that over here, he said.I think we should come over here a couple of times as well if we can - or change a tyre.Then came a less serious suggestion from the six-time champion.Maybe a jump over the back straight would be cool, he joked.In addition to the lack of strategy, other factors contributed to the lack of movement through the field.The fast Pukekohe circuit has few turns suitable for overtaking.More races also means fewer points on offer for each race and a smaller incentive to make risky moves with not as much on the line.If you really wanted to move forward you had to have a really big crack and be a little bit more desperate than you would be, Chaz Mostert said.Well see if anyone else does some moves tomorrow.Van Gisbergen was the chief beneficiary of the format, qualifying at the front and grabbing a first and second place to maintain a 148-point lead.McLaughlin said both drivers and fans enjoyed longer races at Pukekohe and everyone would benefit by switching back to at least one 200km drive.The races weve had across the years is a testament to the series, he said.When we come out here and back to the old way and how we had problems, its obvious why we changed.

The Oilers come in having lost five in a row (0-4-1) and 16 of their last 20 games, dropping a 2-1 decision to the Vancouver Canucks on Tuesday. OAKLAND, Calif. -- Klay Thompson wanted one more quarter. He wanted to score 80, and thinks he absolutely could have.Hard to argue that one: He went off for 60 points in 29 head-shaking, jaw-dropping, defense-breaking minutes.Who knows? I know he would have kept shooting, coach Steve Kerr said. Klays never going to stop shooting.Thompson had an NBA season-high and career-best performance for the highest-scoring output by a Golden State player in more than 42 years, and the Warriors whipped the Indiana Pacers 142-106 on Monday night. At one point, Pacers coach Nate McMillan looked downright speechless during a quiet timeout on his bench.Thompson raised his arms to encourage more of those steady KLAY! KLAY! KLAY! chants then let it fly again and again. He had 60 through three and called it a night, sitting down with 1:22 left in the period as fans jumped to their feet for an extended standing ovation.Its just unfortunate two times I got my career high I didnt get to play the fourth quarter, Thompson said.He scored 40 by halftime in just 18-plus minutes. Nearly two years ago, Thompson had a 37-point quarter on the way to 52 points against Sacramento.Thompson joined Hall of Famers Wilt Chamberlain, Rick Barry and Joe Fulks as the only Warriors to score 60 points. Barry was the last to do so, going off for 64 on March 26, 1974, against Portland.Now, Thompson hopes he gets a chance to go for more.Maybe. I think I could have, maybe one day Ill have the opportunity, he said, But 60 in 29 minutes is not too bad.Thompson shot 21 for 33 and 8 of 14 on 3-pointers -- 15 of 22 with five 3s in the first two quarters -- and converted 10 of 11 free throws in 29 minutes. When he knocked down a turnaround baseline 3 under pressure midway through the second quarter right in front of a resting Curry on the bench, the shot sent the MVP into a tunnel-dashing frenzy of delight.Thats a feat that I put money on will probably never be touched ever again in the history of basketball, Curry said.Previously this season the highest scorers were Oklahoma Citys Russell Westbrook with 51 in an overtime game and Anthony Davis with 50 in regulation for the Pelicans.I felt every shot I took was a good shot, Thompson said.Kevin Durant added 220 points, eight rebounds, four assists and two blocks for Golden State in another display of impressive passing.dddddddddddd The Warriors 15 first-quarter assists matched a franchise record done twice previously and they wound up with 45 total -- two off the franchise record they set Nov. 24 against the Lakers.In one sensational third-quarter play worthy of the highlight reel, Thompson had no part: Off a jump ball, Draymond Green hit Curry with a long heave and Curry made a leaping, one-touch pass to Durant for the dazzling alley-oop. Curry had 13 points and 11 assists.Thompson scored 17 points in just under 9 minutes to begin the game and Golden State had 15 assists on its initial 17 baskets and led 38-27 after the first.A guy like that, the best defense is not to allow him to catch, McMillan said.Paul George had 21 points and 10 rebounds a night after playing nearly 34 minutes and much of that with tissue in his bloody nose.TIP-INSPacers: The Pacers own a 2-7 road record. They have lost eight of 10 on Golden States home floor.Warriors: The Warriors notched their second game with 40 or more assists, the first team since Cleveland in 1992-93 with more than one 40-assist game. ... They recognized the AFC-leading Oakland Raiders, with quarterback Derek Carr and others in attendance. ... Golden State is 6-0 against the Eastern Conference.SELLOUT MILESTONEThe Warriors reached 200 straight sellouts over the regular season and playoffs, to which Warriors coach Steve Kerr joked, If I had to do the math, I havent even been here for half of those.Its long been a daunting road venue for opponents.Youve got to bring your best to play here, Pacers coach Nate McMillan said. Youve got to come here and youve got to hoop. Certainly if you dont, you dont come out of here with a win. Great atmosphere.UP NEXTPacers: Continue their five-game road trip with the second-to-last game Wednesday at Phoenix, where the Pacers have lost eight of the last 11 meetings.Warriors: Begin a five-game road trip over seven days at the Clippers on Wednesday night. Five in seven, thats rough, thats tough, Kerr said. ' ' '
