The Toronto Argonauts Football Club re-signed veteran running back Jeff Johnson and cornerback Matt Black on Friday. Both Johnson and Black are Toronto natives. Johnson is a 12-year CFL veteran and has spent the last 10 seasons with the Argos. He is signed through the 2013 season. In 2011, the 34-year old carried 11 times for 23 yards and caught 12 passes for 82 yards; he also made 5 special teams tackles. "Im thrilled to continue this amazing run with the Double Blue," Johnson said in a statement. "This is an exciting time for the Argonauts organization and the required components for a run at the 100th Grey Cup at home are diligently being put into place. "It is an honour to be considered a vital part of the Double Blue machine and I look forward to the start of the 2012 campaign." Black was a 2008 Canadian Draft Pick by the Argonauts and is signed through 2014. The 26-year old led the Double Blue with 15 special teams tackles last season and scored his first career touchdown on an 81-yard punt return on July 29 in Edmonton. Black grew up in Toronto and starred at Northern Secondary School before a standout college career at Saginaw Valley State. "Im very happy to be back in Double Blue," he said. "Over the past three seasons, I have loved playing for my hometown team and look forward to the opportunities ahead of us. "2012 is going to be an exciting time to be an Argo and Im proud to say Ill be one!" Johnson and Black are two of nine GTA-born players the Argos had on the roster at the end of the 2011 season.

NEW ORLEANS -- Jrue Holiday saw a late 12-point deficit as an opportunity to deliver a character-building message. Fans had started filing out of the New Orleans Arena, the Pelicans were gathered at their bench for a timeout with 4:44 left, and Holiday told his young teammates: "Its time to grow." New Orleans then outscored Cleveland 23-7 the rest of the way en route to 104-100 victory Friday night. "Theres going to be plenty of times, plenty of games where were going to be down like that, but it was time for us to grow, grow together," said Holiday, who had 15 points and 11 assists. "Everybody kind of responded to that and picked up their defence. Everybody took their defensive assignments to heart." Anthony Davis had 17 points, 13 rebounds and three blocks for New Orleans. Eric Gordon scored 19, including a 3-pointer from the corner with 31 seconds left to give New Orleans the lead for good. Clevelands Kyrie Irving, who had 22 points, drove for a potential tying layup with 23 seconds left, but lost the ball as he collided with Davis. As the Pelicans Tyreke Evans corralled the loose ball, Irving took off his protective face mask in disgust, certain he was fouled. After the game, however, Irving refused to blame the loss on that play. "We had a chance in the fourth quarter. We gave ourselves a chance," he said. "Theres a couple things weve got to get better at." Evans and Holiday combined to make four free throws in the final 20 seconds to secure New Orleans third straight win. Cleveland coach Mike Brown hoped his young team would learn from its collapse. "Its a tough loss, especially when you feel like you had control most of the game," Brown said. "But its a growing, learning experience for a young group." The Cavs led 93-81 with 4:44 to go after Earl Clarks third 3-pointer of the second half capped what appeared to be a decisive 9-2 run. New Orleans coach Monty Williams responded with a lineup featuring his five top scorers: Gordon, Holiday, Davis, Evans and Ryan Anderson. "Thats a tough lineup because everyone is capable of scoring," Davis said. What resulted was a 14-2 run that included 3s by Holiday and AAnderson, as well as six points by Davis on a dunk, free throws and a tip-in of Evans miss on a fast break to tie it at 95 with 1:29 to go.dddddddddddd "All our guys, instead of separating, came together," said Williams, who unleashed an emphatic fist pump as the horn sounded. "We know we can come back. We know we can play in close games. ... It was emotional." Evans finished with 19 points and 10 rebounds, including a clutch layup on a baseline drive with 1:01 left. Anderson had 13 points and Jason Smith 11. Jarrett Jack scored 19 points and Dion Waiters added 14 for Cleveland, which led most of the way. Tristan Thompson added 12 points and Clark 11. New Orleans managed to pull out the win despite being badly outshot, 53.2 per cent (41 of 77) to 40.9 per cent (36 of 88). The Pelicans made up for it with a 48-37 rebounding advantage, including 19 offensive rebounds that led to 25 second-chance points. The Pelicans also converted 20 Cavs turnovers into 21 points. "Where the game was lost was 20 turnovers," Brown said. "On the road, you have 20 turnovers for 21 points, thats tough." Waiters scored all his points in the opening half. Jack, who once played for New Orleans, made a running, off-balance 21-footer at the horn to give Cleveland a 51-42 halftime lead. The Cavs led by as many as 11 in the third quarter on Thompsons hook shot. Later in the period, New Orleans briefly surged back in front with a 12-0 run that began with Evans 3 and ended with Andersons 3. But a 3-pointer by Clark and Jacks driving floater in the paint helped Cleveland take a 71-70 lead heading into the final quarter.
