Orlando Magic have named Frank Vogel as their new coach. The 42-year-old former Indiana Pacers coach succeeds Scott Skiles, who resigned last week after the Magic went 35-47 in his only campaign as coach. Orlando has endured four losing seasons in a row, but the Magic were 10 games better last season than the previous season and there is hope Vogel can make more progress.This group is ready to make that next jump, said Vogel.My intention is to come in and make this happen for this group right away and make that jump (to the playoffs) this year. This is going to be a season about being on a mission and winning a lot of games.Vogel is known for emphasising defensive work. Indianas past five teams were among the NBAs top six each season in shooting percentage defense and all six were in the top 10 for defensive efficiency.Frank is a terrific fit for our organization, Magic general manager Rob Hennigan said. He is a strong, hard-working and experienced leader who will continue to instill smart, physical, unselfish and defensive-minded basketball in our group.Vogel went 250-181 with the Pacers and reached the playoffs five times, going so far as the Eastern Conference finals in 2013 and 2014 but losing to the LeBron James-led Miami Heat each time.In Frank, we feel we have someone with tremendous perseverance, character and great balance, Magic chief executive Alex Martins said.Hes an effective communicator who brings a wealth of strategic and postseason experience and is incredibly excited to embrace the journey ahead.

Ryan Garbutt had a goal and two assists as Dallas snapped a six-game losing streak with a 5-2 victory over the Edmonton Oilers on Tuesday night. Andy Murray is not too comfortable at the thought of being called Sir Andy just yet.The 29-year-old has been tipped for a New Year knighthood after crowning a stunning 2016 by beating Novak Djokovic in the ATP World Tour Finals on Sunday to ensure himself the end-of-year world number one status.It was a fitting finale to a brilliant season which saw him win a second Wimbledon crown, become the first man to win successive Olympic gold medals and end the year with 24 wins on the bounce, which was enough for him to overhaul Djokovic at the summit of the game.Murray already has an OBE to his name, awarded after his maiden SW19 win in 2013, but there have been calls for a knighthood in the New Years Honours list -- something the Scot thinks he may be too young for.Obviously it is the highest honour you can get in this country, he told national newspapers. I dont know, I feel too young for something like that.I dont think about that stuff much, really. When I win any award or am presented with anything it is nice because it is recognition for what you have given your life to, up to now anyway.I am still young and there are still a lot of things that can go wrong, I could still mess up and make mistakes. Do stuff wrong. I am just trying to keep doing what I am doing, working hard, and achieving stuff.ddddddddddddWhile a knighthood remains a possibility, the BBC Sports Personality of the Year seems a certainty, with Murray a heavy favourite to claim the prize for an unprecedented third time.However, due to his dads wedding, he will be unable to attend the event and is not sure he will win anyway.I dont think I am going to be able to go this year, he said. Ive got my fathers stag do next weekend, then he is getting married the following weekend.So I will go up to Scotland on Saturday, come back down to London for four or five days then come back up to Scotland. Then I go to Miami the day after my dads wedding.The Brownlee brothers, what they have done throughout the whole year is pretty amazing. I see that as pretty cool, because I have a similar thing with my own brother.And the thing that happened a few months after the Olympics was a nice thing to see, that it is not just a win-at-all-costs mentality.I have no idea who will win it but, in an Olympic year, it is always tough to pick because there are always so many great performances.
