As it happened: Pacers 111–110 ThunderTyrese Haliburton scores with 0.3 seconds left to seal winNearly every analyst coming into this year’s NBA finals had the Oklahoma City Thunder beating the Indiana Pacers comfortably. The first three quarters of Game 1 did very little to contradict those predictions until the final minutes, when all hell broke loose.The reigning NBA MVP, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, looked like, well, the NBA MVP for much of the game as he led the scoring with 38 points. His Thunder team went out to an early 7-0 lead and were 57-45 up by half-time. The second half seemed to be going the same way with the Thunder 15 points up at one point in the fourth quarter.

6 h. ago My sister is unhappy with her life but does nothing to change it. What can I do? | Leading questions

Is your sister saving up her complaints just for you, advice columnist Eleanor Gordon-Smith asks. Perhaps your listening is exactly the help she needsRead more Leading questionsI love my sister dearly. However, we could not be more different. I approach things head on: if something is a problem, I start working on it. She, on the other hand, is very passive. For the last 10 years three issues have been bothering her – her weight, her marriage and her dissatisfaction with her job. But she does nothing about any of them.I tried to help her in many different ways: direct advice – she gets offended and feels judged. Then I tried “tiptoeing” around her. For each suggestion, she always has an excuse why it won’t work. Additionally, she often has a victim complex, as if things are just happening to her and that she has no personal agency.

18 h. ago Football Daily | Cristiano Ronaldo is still very much here. But what happens next?

Sign up now! Sign up now! Sign up now? Sign up now!When Portugal went out of Euro 2024 on penalties last summer, everyone presumed that would be the last we’d see of Cristiano Ronaldo in green and red. Aged 39, he’d scored 130 goals for a Portugal side he’d served with distinction at five previous major tournaments but last year’s jamboree in Germany seemd a step too far. A starter in each of his nation’s five matches, he finished all but one of them, took 29 shots on goal without scoring and despite being a preening, narcissistic passenger was kept on the pitch for the entirety of Portugal’s quarter-final stalemate against France. Meanwhile on the subs’ bench, the likes of Diogo Jota, Gonçalo Ramos and Pedro Neto looked on wistfully, powerless to have any impact due to manager Roberto Martínez’s refusal to withdraw his talisman from the field of play. In the various postmortems that followed Portugal’s exit, it was widely accepted that the time had come for the Martínez to sling hi...

The administration has touted its efforts against illegal immigration. But what sets his actions apart is his crusade against those in the US legallyThe Donald Trump administration has billed itself as taking unprecedented steps to crack down on illegal immigration. While the total number of deportations has yet to surge, it may happen soon. The homeland security secretary, Kristi Noem, supports suspending habeas corpus to speed up deportations, and the border czar, Tom Homan, has suggested blatantly ignoring court orders. Private companies are also lining up to cash in on mass deportations.Nonetheless, Trump’s approach so far to immigration deemed illegal has not differed much from what Barack Obama and Joe Biden did.
