ORCHARD PARK, N. Air Max 90 Promo .Y. -- Buffalo Bills wide receiver Sammy Watkins could play Thursday night against the New York Jets despite soreness in his left foot, coach Rex Ryan said Monday.Watkins told the teams medical staff after Sundays loss to the Baltimore Ravens that his surgically repaired foot was sore, prompting a report Monday from the New York Daily News that Watkins could be shut down for several weeks as a precaution.Thats not what were thinking right now, Ryan said of the possibility of sidelining Watkins for the Bills upcoming games.Definitely going to be out there playing [against the Jets], Watkins told ESPN.?Im doing fine. Ill be fine. Just was sore after the game. Thats expected. Getting prepared for next week.Ryan added that he is confident that [Watkins] will be OK despite the apparent setback in Watkins recovery from a broken foot that required a procedure to repair in the spring.Hopefully hell progress through the week and hell be ready to roll, Ryan said Monday of the Bills game Thursday against the Jets. The team will only hold walk-through practices before the contest, which will give little indication of Watkins availability to play.Im not in any pain, Watkins said. Its not about the pain. Its about just being smart. I got it checked out and it was fine.The Daily News reported Monday that doctors have advised Watkins against having a second surgery on his foot, and that there was a fear on Sunday night that the wideout could miss the rest of the season before doctors made the recommendation not to have surgery.Asked Monday if the possibility of Watkins missing the entire season was overboard, Ryan responded, it seems like it.When asked if there was concern the injury could get worse, Watkins said, With these injuries, they get better as you go. The more reps, the more speed, the more youre feeling the injury out and mentally having faith and believing that its healed, you get better. Ive been progressing and getting better every day, so I dont feel like Im having any setbacks.Its just all up to we being smart, treatment and doing the right thing.Watkins, who was not listed on the injury report last week, played 42 snaps Sunday, catching four passes for a team-high 43 yards. He declined to speak to reporters after the game.The Daily News reported that X-rays after the game did not show any broken bones in Watkins foot and that doctors consider his availability in upcoming games to be a pain-management issue. Watkins, the fourth overall pick in 2014, has battled numerous injuries during his career. After missing offseason activities last year because of hip surgery, Watkins missed three regular-season games because of a calf injury and an ankle injury. Air Max Pas Cher Chine .

NEW YORK -- No matter how much Tom Thibodeau screamed, his Minnesota Timberwolves clearly arent hearing his message about defense.Kenny Atkinson sure liked what he saw from his offense.Brook Lopez scored 26 points, and the Brooklyn Nets kept the Timberwolves winless on the road with a 119-110 victory Tuesday night.The Nets shot 55.3 percent from the field and had eight players with at least nine points, the kind of movement and involvement that Atkinson wanted to bring to Brooklyn from his time as an Atlanta assistant.Were sharing the wealth a little more and in the perfect Utopian motion system, thats what it should look like, where its really everybodys touching it, Atkinson said.It led to a surprisingly easy offensive performance against a young Wolves team that clearly hasnt yet grasped Thibodeaus defensive schemes.Thibodeau, whose teams in Chicago were among the NBAs strongest defensively, said 110 points is more than enough to win.Unless we correct the defensive end, its going to be a struggle, he said. That has to become a priority by everyone, otherwise nothing positive is going to happen.Trevor Booker added 15 points and Sean Kilpatrick had 14 for the Nets.Andrew Wiggins scored a career-high 36 points for the Wolves, making a career-best six 3-pointers. Karl-Anthony Towns had 21 points, but scoring wasnt the problem for Minnesota.The Wolves are 0-4 on the road and just 1-5 overall.We keep hearing were young, thats why were playing the way we play, Towns said. Thats not the reason. Were just not executing.It was close most of the way, neither team having much luck stopping the other, and the Nets lead was just two after Wiggins jumper with 56 seconds left. Bojan Bogdanovic then made a 3-pointer with 37 seconds to go for a 115-110 lead, and Isaiah Whitehead and Bogdanovic closed it out with free throws.Without injured point guards Jeremy Lin (strained left hamstring) and Greivis Vasquez (sore right ankle), the Nets got a scare in the first quarter when starter Whiteheadd had to leave the game after he fell onto the court and Gorgui Dieng accidentally stepped on his face.

But the second-round draft pick from Brooklyn was able to return shortly after and had six points, seven rebounds and seven assists.Thats the toughness we need and thats the definition of Brooklyn grit right there, Lopez said.The Nets shot 62 percent in the first half and led 66-65 despite 19 points from Towns.TIP-INSTimberwolves: The Timberwolves lost for just the fifth time in the last 15 meetings. ...

The Wolves were playing their first East team.SKILLED KILPATRICKThe Timberwolves once signed Kilpatrick in part because they were so short-handed they needed another player just to meet NBA rules of having eight in uniform, and he was playing in the NBA Development League close enough to arrive on time. Now he entered the game as the NBAs highest-scoring reserve with 17 points per game.Hes still the guy that would get in a car and go to any game at any place, Atkinson said. That guy, hes just a competitor.
