LATROBE, Pa. Cheap NFL Nike Jerseys . -- Emmanuel Sanders caught a touchdown pass running a fade route during a drill Saturday. Then after Pittsburgh Steelers receivers, defensive backs and quarterbacks turned around en masse and headed to the opposite end of Chuck Noll Field, Sanders caught another touchdown pass on the next play. That was streaking across the back of the end zone during an 11-on-11 drill. Later in practice, he added another score when he reeled in a pass with his fingertips along the end zones left sideline and capped off his "four-touchdown day" by catching a Ben Roethlisberger pass in stride as he was sprinting down the right sideline. All in all, a good training camp day for Sanders. Then again, any training camp day is a good one for Sanders -- as long as hes not in pain. Coming off an injury-filled season that included a camp in which he was rehabbing both feet after off-season surgery, Sanders says hes healthy, happy and ready for a breakout season. "Oh my God, you have no idea, man," Sanders said when asked how much better he feels this training camp as opposed to the previous one. "Last year around this time, I was down and out. And now I have an appreciation for training camp. A lot of those guys are like, Argh, I gotta go to training camp. Im like, Yes! Lets go to training camp! Im healthy, Im finally here. So you know Im enjoying it each day." Sanders is running as the teams second receiver, too, with Mike Wallaces holdout well into its second week. Known as an ambitious, hard worker through his college and young pro career, Sanders spent his off-season mostly staying off his feet -- and with some dramatically more pedestrian goals. "My main goal this off-season was to stay healthy," he said. Sanders broke his right foot during the February 2011 Super Bowl at the end of his rookie season. Later that off-season -- one in which there was no minicamp or OTAs due to the lockout -- Sanders had surgery on the left foot. The result was a disjointed camp and start to the season. Sanders missed five games for the Steelers (No. 7 in the AP Pro32) due to injury and caught only 22 passes for 288 yards and two touchdowns. Sanders had a team-high six receptions for a career-high 81 yards in Pittsburghs wild-card playoff loss in Denver. Hes hoping that can serve as a springboard heading into this season. A third-round pick after setting SMU career records for receptions, touchdown catches and yards, Sanders has been wowing coaches and teammates on the practice field throughout his brief NFL career with his speed, hands, route-running and quickness. Its time to translate that to games, he said. "My past three years I felt like I was working so hard, like I had something to prove in practice and things of that nature," Sanders said. "But all this practicing does me no good. I need to make it to the games, so thats my main focus." With Hines Ward retired and Wallaces arrival in camp uncertain, Sanders could be in line for an increased workload. If he can avoid injury. "Hes healthy, hes doing a nice job, hes prepared," coach Mike Tomlin said. "Hes a quality player. He understands the receiver position, buying space for himself. Hes been doing a nice job." Notes: Tomlin had some fun with reporters who asked why Roethlisberger sat out the tail end of practice: "Somebody stepped on his foot. You guys sure love the Ben updates." ... A day after G Willie Colon (ankle) and RB Isaac Redman (groin) sustained minor injuries during a practice at a local high school, neither practiced Saturday. Tomlin termed both "day to day." ... The Steelers ran the goal-line drill in practice, with Tomlin declaring the defence the winner in the best-of-seven format of snaps from the 1 1/2-yard line. ... LBs Ryan Baker and Brandon Johnson each sustained ankle injuries Saturday. Cheap Jerseys .

The Chicago Bulls couldnt connect in the fourth quarter and they couldnt stop a late surge by LeBron James, either. And now the Bulls head to Miami with the Eastern Conference finals tied at 1-1 and the Heat in control of homecourt advantage. The Bulls, down by 11 in the third quarter, tied the game on a basket by Taj Gibson with 7:16 to go and then squandered several chances to take the lead against the determined Heat. Chicago managed just one basket the rest of the way, scoring only 10 in the fourth quarter of an 85-75 loss. "They were into us, they fought us," Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau said. "Their ball pressure was great, they challenged shots and when the ball went up, they fought us." The Bulls shot only 34 per cent and were 4-for-16 in the final 12 minutes. MVP Derrick Rose was just 7-for-23 shooting, missing all four of his attempts in the fourth, and finishing with 21 points. He had two points in the final quarter -- on free throws. Nothing came easy for Chicago, which shot a dismal 17-of-42 in the paint. "If anything, they closed down the lane, but I missed a lot of layups. Shots I normally hit just werent falling," Rose said. "Everybody was just missing shots that are normally just easy for us." Chicago limited the Heat to two points over the first 7 1/2 minutes of the final quarter, keeping James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh scoreless. But with several chances to take the lead, the Bulls misfired and finally James found the range. He hit a three-pointer and then another jumper and Miami finished it off, responding with a strong game on the boards after its 21-point loss in the opener Sunday night. The Bulls defence, so tenacious in Game 1, wasnt able to stop James and Wade from getting inside the lane where they could go to the rim or draw fouls. And they couldnt keep the Heat from breaking out during the third quarter when they were sparked by Udonis Haslem, who gave the Bullls problems inside and out.dddddddddddd "Hes one of those guys -- and you really cant measure him statistically -- he brings a lot of toughness to their team, high energy guy, terrific defensively," Thibodeau said. Chicago pulled down seven offensive rebounds in first seven minutes and then only two the remainder of the half. And they missed 14 of their first 18 field goal attempts, setting the tone for the night. Chicagos staggering 31 second-chance points and 19-6 offensive rebounding edge in Game 1 were also offset by the Heats hustle. Miami still got beat on the offensive glass 17-10 but won the overall board play 45-41. And this time the Bulls had only 18 second-chance points. "We played low-energy offence, we played low-energy defence and the result was not great," Thibodeau said. Home court gone, the Bulls now head to Miami where they won in their only appearance in the regular season. Theyll have to find their shooting touch. Luol Deng was 5-for-15, Carlos Boozer 3-for-10 and three-point artist Kyle Korver just 1-for-7. Chicago was 3-for-20 on three-pointers and missed 10 free throws. "We just never got into a flow," Korver said. Boozer managed only seven points along with eight rebounds. He didnt play in the fourth quarter and Game 3 is a long way off -- Sunday night. "Trust me, we would rather play right away especially after a loss like this," he said. Deng said the Bulls were still in the game with four minutes to go and credited his team with fighting back. He said he had no problem with how the Bulls defended James, who finished with 29 -- 14 more than Game 1 -- or Wade, who scored 24 after 18 in the opener. "Not very often are they going to have off nights," Deng said. "I still thought we did a good job on them. They hit some tough shots that were OK with it, as long as theyre not getting too many easy shots. "They responded well and took one. Now its up to us to go down there and try to win." ' ' '
