With the NBL season approaching its halfway point, the gap between the haves and have-nots is plain to see.The powerhouse Sydney Kings sit top of the ladder after defeating the Perth Wildcats 83-72 in the Saturday night home leg of their double-header against the defending champions.It was a different story in Adelaide where the bottom-placed 36ers slumped to their fourth straight loss, going down 105-87 to Brisbane.Sydneys success is due in no small part to the firepower they have added to their roster, signing reigning MVP Kevin Lisch, dual Olympian swingman Brad Newley and NBA imports Josh Powell and Steve Blake.With the NBL allowing each side to sign three imports this season, it has never been more important to add the right players.But part of that equation is having the money to attract quality talent, something Adelaide coach Joey Wright is all too aware of.The 36ers boast the best scorer in the competition in star guard Jerome Randle but desperately lack depth, and a shortage of funding and corporate backing is preventing them from making any import changes.We dont have the finances to do that. Its not even an option for us, Wright said after Saturdays loss.Thats something we have to accept. Were sticking to the guys weve got who have to step up and get the job done.NBL general manager Jeremy Loeliger has admitted several teams are over the leagues soft $1.1 million salary cap and will have to contribute to an equalisation subsidy for struggling teams next season.But Loeliger said talk of a two-tier competition with a division between rich and poor clubs was being proved wrong.Everyone said that Cairns, by all rights given the economic situation of respective clubs, should be on the bottom of the ladder but its just not true, he said earlier this month.Everyone says Melbourne at the beginning of the season were the clear favourites and they are sitting at the bottom of the ladder.Melbourne welcomed back star shooting guard Chris Goulding in style with an 84-79 win over Cairns on Friday night.Goulding, who was sidelined for a month with an ankle injury, drained eight of his 12 three-point attempts to finish with 30 points.The Wildcats beat Sydney at home on Thursday but will sweat on the fitness of big man Matt Knight, who injured his shoulder in the return leg in Sydney.David Stockton, the son of NBA legend John Stockton, scored 17 points on debut to help the New Zealand Breakers to a 100-85 win over Illawarra on Friday.

TROON, Scotland -- Phil Mickelson finally gave up the lead at the British Open. He knows he could have lost much more than that.Today, Lefty said Saturday evening, just outside the clubhouse, could have been a day it got away from me.Instead, a combination of good fortune, improvisation and typical short-game magic meant Mickelson will head into the final round just one shot behind Henrik Stenson at Royal Troon. A sixth major title is still within grasp of the Peoples Champion.In a head to head with Stenson that went to and fro Saturday, Mickelson shot 1-under 70 for his third straight round under par. He was one of only 13 players to break par on a day of intermittent showers and gusts of up to 30 mph off the Irish Sea.Considering some of the situations he found himself in, Mickelson couldnt have asked for much more.On No. 4, a short par-5 downwind that played the easiest hole of the day, he drove into thick rough on the right. The lie was OK, he chipped out sideways and almost matched the birdie of Stenson, which dropped Mickelson out of the lead for the first time since his 14th hole on Thursday.On No. 12, Mickelson drove left into the gorse, the ball trickling out but settling just beside the branches. He didnt have a backswing, but he managed to punch the ball 100 yards down the fairway and got up and down for his ninth straight par.Then on No.18, he sent his approach from the light rough into the front-left bunker and immediately complained -- with an expletive thrown in -- that the click of cameras threw him off.dddddddddddd I cant believe that, Mickelson said toward a group of photographers. I get you have to cover it, but why do you have to interfere with it?His bunker shot came to rest 4 feet from the cup, and Mickelson saved par again.The game of golf, it just comes and goes, Mickelson said. Most important thing is to find a way to get the ball in the hole, and thats what I did ... and thats all that I really care about.Some days its easy and it looks pretty, like the first couple. Some days its hard and it looks terrible, like it did today. But either way, I shot three rounds under par.Mickelson said hed get in a session with swing coach Andrew Getson before the final round as he searches for the form he produced Thursday when he shot 63, tying the lowest round at a major and coming within a lip-out of making history.That was followed by a 69 on Friday and now a 70. The scores are getting progressively higher for a 46-year-old player without a victory since winning the British Open at Muirfield in 2013.That doesnt worry Mickelson.Ive been hitting it so good for so long, that I just think one day is an anomaly, he said. Hopefully Ill get dialed back in tomorrow.Stenson had the lowest round in the field on Friday and Saturday.Its a great opportunity, a great challenge, Mickelson said. Henrik is playing really good golf and Im going to have to go and shoot a good number. ' ' '
