Paralympic champion Richard Whitehead says doping athletes are weak and that any clean Russian competitors in danger of missing the Rio Games must speak out against state-sponsored doping.Russia may discover its Olympic fate on Sunday, while the International Paralympic Committee on Friday opened suspension proceedings over the unimaginable scale of institutionalised doping in Russian sport.Amputee runner Whitehead, speaking after breaking the T42 200 metres world record with a time of 23.03 seconds at the Anniversary Games in London, agrees with the IPCs move.Its really important. A stance needs to be set, Whitehead said. Were wanting to participate on a level playing field with everybody else. The IPC, British Athletics, WADA [the World Anti-Doping Agency] are all taking care of that.Whitehead, who has competed in both summer and winter Paralympic Games, acknowledged doping is an issue and he cannot comprehend why anyone takes performance-enhancing drugs.Why do it? Just train harder, he said. You dont need steroids, you dont need drugs. You need whats up here [in the head]. For me, if you do take the easy way out youre quite weak up here. Those guys need help.Russian clean athletes need to stand to fight against their organisation, so they can have a clean national governing body. Thats what Id do.A decision over Russias participation in the Paralympics, which take place from September 7 to 18, will be made in the first week of August.The Olympics open on August 5 and whether Russia competes there could be determined as soon as Sunday, when the International Olympic Committees executive board meets.Elsewhere, wheelchair racer declared himself happy with his third-placed finish in the T54 1500m at the Anniversary Games on Saturday.Weir, who won gold from the 800m to the marathon at London 2012 and is so far entered in the 1500m and marathon for Rio, said: I have not tapered for this race. I will be in full swing for Rio.Preparations are okay. I still came third, I am still hitting top speed even though my arms are dead from training.I am going for five events [in Rio], not sure which ones. I am not saying which five. The amount of training I do, the racing I do, its only two races a day, maybe three.There was a new world record for Weirs fellow Paralympic champion Richard Whitehead in the T42 200m, who marked his 40th birthday in the week by storming home in 23.03 seconds.The double amputee, who at London 2012 was well down at halfway before powering down the home straight, said he has worked at getting up to speed quicker and it showed.I need to run slightly differently now, I need to run smarter, he said. Its lean and mean for 2016. Im going to 22 [seconds] in Rio, Ill put that out there. I want to come back with gold in the 100 and the 200.Air Max 90 Homme Pas Cher Fausse . SIMONS ISLAND, Ga.

"I wrote 36 on my sheet at the beginning of the game," the Cincinnati coach said, referring the yard line the ball would need to be snapped from.A little deja vu would suit the Detroit Pistons just fine Wednesday night.Due to a scheduling quirk, the Pistons are playing in Charlotte for the second time in just over a week. The Pistons cruised to a 112-89 victory in the first meeting behind Tobias Harris 24 points.That win kicked off a quality stretch for the Pistons, who won for the fourth time in five games Tuesday by downing the Chicago Bulls 102-91 at The Palace of Auburn Hills.Its good to get a win for every reason possible, Detroit coach Stan Van Gundy said after his team topped the Bulls. Youve got to get every one you can get, and certainly when youre heading on the road, its even better.Detroit gave away a 17-point lead to Chicago but outscored the Bulls 31-19 in the fourth quarter. The Pistons (12-11) bounced back from a loss to the visiting Orlando Magic on Sunday.Every game is important, but after dropping one at home, we definitely wanted to get this one, Detroit forward Jon Leuer said. Guys had a sense of urgency to come up and bring the energy and bring the defensive effort. Thats what helped us get the job done.Point guard Reggie Jackson is questionable to play at Charlotte. He appeared in just his second game this season Tuesday after recovering from knee tendinitis, and he scored seven points in 18 minutes.That decision on his status likely will be made Wednesday morning.There hasnt been a blanket statement that he wont play back-to-backs, but I also havent gotten assurances thaat he will, either, Van Gundy said.ddddddddddddIf Jackson sits, Ish Smith would start -- as he has most of the season -- and Beno Udrih would serve as the backup.The Hornets (12-9) expect to have power forward Marvin Williams back in the lineup. He missed the past six games with a hyperextended left knee, but Charlotte went 4-2 in his absence.We miss him a lot in so many different areas, coach Steve Clifford said. A lot of it is just his versatility defensively. But weve had enough to win.That included a 109-101 victory over the Dallas Mavericks on Monday. Guard Kemba Walker led a balanced attack with 19 points, and swingman Nicolas Batum contributed 14 points, 15 rebounds and seven assists.The thing I liked is even when things werent going our way on the road, they were very locked in and positive with each other in the huddles, Clifford said. Thats the way it has to be.Clifford hopes that with his club at full strength, the Hornets can establish themselves as one of the top teams in the Eastern Conference.Thats why youll see teams in these first 20 games not do as well (and then) will take off, because theyll develop that mentality that you need, he said. Every team has a different intensity level, and they have to find it before they can play well consistently. Sometimes it takes 20 games, sometimes 15, sometimes longer. ' ' '
