Xavier's Crawford in workout group Tuesday
Jordan Crawford, who gained fame for his dunk over LeBron James at a basketball camp last summer, is among the draft prospects working out for the Bucks at the Cousins Center on Tuesday.
The 6-foot-4, 198-pound Crawford played his freshman year at Indiana under Kelvin Sampson before transferring to Xavier. Crawford led the Musketeers in scoring at 20.5 points per game last season and also led them to a Sweet 16 appearance in the NCAA Tournament.
Also working out for the Bucks on Tuesday are: Dominique Jones, a 6-4 junior from South Florida; Charles Garcia, a 6-9 junior from Seattle; Australian A.J. Ogilvy, a 6-11 junior from Vanderbilt; Hamady N'Diaye, a 6-11 senior from Rutgers; and 6-10 Luc Louves, a 21-year-old foreign prospect from France.
The Bucks also have draft workouts scheduled on Wednesday and Thursday. They have the 15th, 37th and 47th picks in the NBA draft, to be held on June 24. (31)
Crawford would love a return to Bradley Center
St. Francis - Jordan Crawford had plenty of success in Milwaukee during the NCAA Tournament, when he led his Xavier team to back-to-back victories over Minnesota and Pittsburgh.
The 6-foot-4 guard was back in town on Tuesday, working out for the Bucks along with five other draft prospects.
"I'd love to play in the Bradley Center again," said Crawford, who scored 55 points in the two games to help the Musketeers reach the Sweet 16. "It was fun, the best time of my life, actually, to be with my teammates and make that amazing run." »Read Full Blog Post(10)
Pondering players like Garcia
St. Francis – There are so many players in this year's college draft that the NBA teams are still trying to figure out. Just where do they fit in?
Among them is 6-foot-9 forward Charles Garcia of Seattle University who was among the group of six working out for the Bucks at the team's training facility on Tuesday. Bucks director of scouting Billy McKinney said Garcia described himself the best during last week's pre-draft camp in Minneapolis. »Read Full Blog Post(11)
Crawford sees no ghosts
Xavier University guard Jordan Crawford played so well in the NCAA games at the Bradley Center last March that many thought he was the most outstanding player of the weekend.
After his workout with the Bucks on Tuesday, though, Crawford joked that his play just might have been affected a bit had he known then what he knows now since he heard "those" rumors about the Pfister Hotel when he returned to town this week. »Read Full Blog Post(32)
Jennings' 'little brother' works out for Bucks
St. Francis – At this point of the NBA's draft process, Oklahoma freshman forward Keith "Tiny" Gallon can only dream about playing in the pros with Bucks guard Brandon Jennings. After all, the two are former high school teammates at Oak Hill Academy and even at 6-foot-9, Gallon does "look up" to the 6-1 Jennings.
After taking part in a pre-draft workout with the Bucks on Wednesday, Gallon talked about the chemistry that he and Jennings used to have on the court, how Jennings used to find him for open shots, and how great it would be to play with him again.
And, it wasn't just their relationship on the court that was positive. »Read Full Blog Post(44)
High riser Babbitt among workout group
Nevada sophomore Luke Babbitt, who turned heads at the recent draft combine, is among the six players working out for the Bucks on Thursday at the Cousins Center.
The 6-9, 225-pound Babbitt is being compared with Butler's Gordon Hayward as the draft approaches on June 24. Babbitt, a Cincinnati native who grew up in Reno, Nev., and stayed in his hometown to attend college, is expected to be a first-round pick and could go in the lottery to middle of the first round.
The Bucks have the 15th overall pick and also hold two picks in the second round (Nos. 37 and 47).
Also working out for the Bucks will be 6-7 St. John's senior Anthony Mason; 6-7 Hawaii senior Roderick Flemings; 6-8 Michigan State senior Raymar Morgan; 6-3 Pittsburgh senior Jermaine Dixon and 6-1 UW-Milwaukee senior Ricky Franklin. (51)
Babbitt serious about draft process
St. Francis - Luke Babbitt says he wants to play for a winning team in the NBA.
That's why the Nevada sophomore forward has a keen interest in the Bucks, who have the 15th overall pick in the June 24 draft. The 6-foot-9 Babbitt was one of six players to work out for the Bucks on Thursday at the Cousins Center.
Babbitt, who has been rising on draft charts in the past few weeks, sounded like someone who has studied the Bucks and done his homework regarding the draft process. »Read Full Blog Post(122)
'Tiny' is misunderstood
The tattoo of the week during pre-draft workouts at the Bucks training center belonged to freshman Oklahoma forward Keith "Tiny' Gallon who had the word "Misunderstood" across the front of his neck in letters about an inch high.
Gallon measures now at 6-foot-9 and 296 pounds but there was a day back in high school when he played at 350 pounds and he said that it's been a constant challenge for him to prove to people that he can keep the weight off. »Read Full Blog Post(113)
Looking at the second round
The Bucks have brought 30 players into town so far for pre-draft workouts and most of them are being projected as second-round picks.
The Bucks have two second-round picks this year (37 and 47 overall) and they are hoping to strike it rich in the second round as they did in 2008 when they selected forward Luc Richard Mbah a Moute with the 37th overall pick in the draft. »Read Full Blog Post(127)
LeBron's out of this world
Since everyone else seems to be weighing in on where LeBron James will land after his summer of free agency, we might as well check with Milwaukee Bucks forward Darnell Jackson who played in Cleveland last season before being waived and picked up by the Bucks last March.
Jackson, who is a big admirer of James, was asked where he thought King James would end up. »Read Full Blog Post(263)
The draft process continues
After a week of video work and scheduling, the Bucks will head back to the practice court next week to resume pre-draft workouts.
The Bucks did not attend a three-day draft combine involving 36 players in New Jersey this week as they decided their time would be better spent breaking down video of players and putting together a busy week of workouts next week. »Read Full Blog Post(52)
Bucks like No. 15
To trade or not to trade?
That is one of many questions the Bucks and the other NBA teams will be pondering as this year's college draft draws near. »Read Full Blog Post(100)
Bucks continue workouts
The Bucks will continue their pre-draft workouts Monday at the team's training center with UConn senior Stanley Robinson, Utah senior Kim Tillie, VCU junior Larry Sanders, Mississippi State senior Jarvis Varnado, Virginia sophomore Sylven Landesberg, and Oklahoma freshman Tommy Mason-Griffin participating.
The Bucks will conduct workouts every day this week through Friday. (45)
Ray rings up Robinson
St. Francis - Forward Stanley Robinson of the University of Connecticut was just a bit surprised, to say the least, when his phone rang a couple weeks ago and he heard the voice of another Connecticut player speaking to him.
"Ray Allen called me," said Robinson after taking part in a Bucks pre-draft workout Monday at the team's training facility. »Read Full Blog Post(63)
Patterson cancels workout with Bucks
St. Francis - The biggest story out of the Milwaukee Bucks' camp Tuesday involved who wasn't there.
Kentucky forward Patrick Patterson, who has been a high-riser in the draft workout process, canceled his workout with the team. Bucks director of scouting Billy McKinney said the team still hoped to bring in Patterson before the NBA draft on June 24.
Patterson recently worked out for the Utah Jazz, which holds the No. 9 pick in the draft. And the 6-foot-9, 240-pound power forward took part in a workout session with the Indiana Pacers on Monday - Indiana has the No. 10 overall selection. »Read Full Blog Post(69)
Lazar to work out for Bucks
Lazar Hayward of Marquette University will be among the six players taking part in the Bucks' pre-draft workout Wednesday at the team's practice facility.
Other players scheduled to attend are Gordon Hayward of Butler, Luke Babbitt of Nevada, Terrico White of Mississippi, Jordan Crawford of Xavier, and Darington Hobson of New Mexico. (71)
Return engagement for Crawford, Babbitt
St. Francis - Some eyebrows were raised at the Bucks training facility Wednesday when Nevada forward Luke Babbitt and Xavier guard Jordan Crawford returned for a second pre-draft workout with the team.
A second visit?
Does that indicate that the Bucks might be zeroing in on a couple players they would like to select on draft night? »Read Full Blog Post(55)
James, Pondexter headline workout
St. Francis - The Bucks took a look at three defensive-minded small forward prospects in Thursday's workout at the Cousins Center: Damion James of Texas, Quincy Pondexter of Washington and Devin Ebanks of West Virginia.
Bucks director of scouting Billy McKinney said all three of those players could go in the first round, and the 6-foot-7 James is projected as a mid first-round pick.
"The matchup today with Damion James and Quincy Pondexter was a great matchup to watch," McKinney said. »Read Full Blog Post(143)
The latest mock drafts
We're closing in on the NBA draft - one which could be a pivotal one for the Bucks, who (for now) have the No. 15 overall pick plus two second-rounders in what is considered a deep draft.
When I did a look at mock drafts a month and a half ago, Xavier Henry and Gordon Hayward were the names most mentioned for the Bucks in the first round. Are they still the ones being tabbed for Milwaukee? Let's take a look (listed in no particular order):
- Chris Murray of the Reno Gazette Journal - Paul George, small forward, Fresno State. He writes: "George could be a top-10 pick, but if he slides expect one of the next three teams to gobble him up. He has the skills, but does he have the work ethic and in-game effort level?"
- NBAdraft.net - First round: Xavier Henry, shooting guard, Kansas; Second round: Willie Warren, point/shooting guard, Oklahoma and Matt Bouldin, point/shooting guard, Gonzaga.
- MyNBADraft.com - First round: Xavier Henry; Second round: Jarvis Varnado, power forward, Mississippi State and Robin Benzing, small forward, international player from Germany.
- InsideHoops.com - Larry Sanders, power forward, VCU. (Note: Loved that show with Gary Shandling; also InsideHoops was supposed to update their mock Saturday, but as I write this it is not up.)
- HoopsHype.com - Xavier Henry. HoopsHype ranks Henry as the second-best shooting guard available (Evan Turner is No. 1).
- DraftExpress - First round: Gordon Hayward, small forward, Butler; Second round: Trevor Booker, power forward, Clemson and Samardo Samuels, power forward/center, Louisville.
- Mike McGraw, The SportsXchange - Kevin Seraphin, power forward, international player from France. Writes McGraw: "A knee injury is expected to keep Seraphin out of summer league, but NBA teams were already familiar with this impressive 6-10 athlete. He grew up in French Guyana playing soccer, so he's relatively new to basketball and figures to start out as a project."
- The Hoops Report - First round: Paul George. Second round: Stanley Robinson, small forward, UConn and Jerome Jordan, center, Tulsa.
- Steve Alexander of Rotoworld.com - Hassan Whiteside, power forward, Marshall. Writes Alexander: "Whiteside will be a bit of a project, but is still a possible lottery pick. His wingspan is huge and he's been impressive in workouts. He should become a defensive specialist, somewhat like a junior version of Marcus Camby. But it could take him a few years to develop."
- Brian Levenson of briansbigboard.com - First round: Ed Davis, power forward, North Carolina. Writes Levenson: "With the hope of the return of a healthy Andrew Bogut and the emergence of Brandon Jennings, the Bucks now have some interesting pieces to build around. John Salmons is a restricted free agent and Michael Redd hasn't been healthy in forever, but there isn't a shooting guard that jumps out at this point. Davis needs to have a creative point guard that can find him close to the rim and I believe Jennings would really help him transition to the next level. Also, playing alongside Bogut will ease pressure that may be on him. While some project Davis as a top 10 pick, I think he will end up falling a bit and I think Milwaukee would be a very good fit for him at 15." Second round: Devin Ebanks, small forward, West Virginia ("I think this is a no-brainer. Ebanks has 1st round talent, but he just hasn't proven to be consistent enough to warrant that. He is the type of athlete that Brandon Jennings covets and he would fit perfectly in Skiles defense-first system. Milwaukee has some solid role players, but Ebanks would provide them with athleticism that they sorely missed this season. Jennings will take pressure off him to create for himself and allow him to slash to the hoop for easy buckets. This would be a great pick for Milwaukee and while I am sure Ebanks would rather go earlier, this would also be a great fit for him as well.") and Jerome Randle, point guard, California ("Randle is one of my favorite players in this years draft, but I found it tough to find him a home because of the amount of young point guards that entered the league last year and the fact that his height makes him somewhat difficult to find a fit for. I think Randle is capable of being at least a quality backup point guard and I wish I could have found him a home earlier in the draft. With Ridnour's impending free agency Randle would provide them with insurance as a backup for Jennings, or if they bring Ridnour back then Randle would become a very good 3rd option.")
- Jonathan Feigen of CBSSports.com - Gordon Hayward. Writes Feigen: "John Salmons, who helped key the Bucks' late season turnaround, could be gone. Even if he returns, the Bucks could use another shooter. Hayward fits that with a solid, all-around game that could work for coach Scott Skiles."
- Luke Babbitt, small forward, Nevada. Writes Mayberry: "Babbitt should give the Bucks some much-needed scoring help."
- Dime Magazine - James Anderson, shooting guard, Oklahoma State. Note: Dime Magazine has Xavier Henry going with the next pick. Writes the mag: "If John Salmons leaves and Michael Redd can't recapture his All-Star form, the Bucks need another backcourt scorer next to Brandon Jennings. Anderson has three years' Big 12 experience and can play right away for a playoff team."
- Tom Ziller of Fanhouse.com - James Anderson. Writes Ziller: "The Bucks can insure against the potential loss of free agent John Salmons by picking up Anderson, an aggressive scoring guard who has the defensive chops to play under Scott Skiles."
- Ryan Feldman of The Hoops Report - Paul George. Writes Feldman: Ironically, Feldman has James Anderson going to the Bulls, who own the Bucks' selection in a switch of picks. "Last year, the Bucks went for the player with the most star potential in Brandon Jennings. Now, they need another scorer with star potential, and George would have the most potential of any player available. He can be the small forward of the future for the Bucks."
- HoopsWorld - First round: Xavier Henry. Second round: Jordan Crawford, shooting guard, Xavier and Tyren Johnson, power forward, Louisiana-Lafayette.
- Sean Deveney of The Sporting News - Luke Babbitt. Take note Bucks fans, here is what Deveney says: "The Bucks will probably use this pick to shore up their small forward spot—Paul George, Damion James and Babbitt are the likely possibilities."
- ESPN.com's Chad Ford (Insider) - Xavier Henry. Writes Ford: "The Bucks have a big need at the wing position with Michael Redd coming back from injury and John Salmons looking to opt out of his contract. Of the players left on the board, Henry and Paul George look to be, by far, the best values. Both players can play either the 2 or 3, both can shoot the lights out and both have upside. Speaking of upside, we probably should add one more name to the list. It's a long shot but Cincinnati's Lance Stephenson has impressed in workouts and the Bucks have had their eye on him for a while. It seems like that's a bit of a reach at 15, but John Hammond rolled the dice on a former high school phenom with a bad rep last year and it paid off. Will he do it again this year?"
- Ian Thomson of SI.com - Daniel Orton, center, Kentucky. Writes Thomson: "Another long-term project with huge upside, Orton has the makings of a big-time shot-blocker and rebounder. He doesn't shy away from physical play, and his soft touch gives hope that he'll become a low-post scorer. Over the course of his rookie contract he could emerge as an excellent defensive-minded backup for Andrew Bogut."
- Jeff Goodman of FoxSports.com - Xavier Henry. Writes Goodman: "He's not Michael Redd, but he can certainly help soften the blow because it looks like even if Redd returns, he won't be the same player. Henry can score, but he needs to become more than just a one-dimensional player."
By the way, in case you want to know more on Henry, here's a feature on him from The Oklahoman.
So what do you think of the possibilities? I'm not sure Bucks fans, seeing their team come off a playoff season, want to see the word "project" associated with the first-round pick. (49)
Kansas guard Henry in Monday workout
Kansas freshman guard Xavier Henry headlines a group of six draft prospects who will work out for the Bucks on Monday at the Cousins Center in St. Francis.
The 6-foot-6 Henry is projected as a possible pick for the Bucks at No. 15 overall by a number of draft experts.
Another intriguing prospect in the group Monday is 7-foot freshman Hassan Whitside of Marshall. In addition, 6-5 freshman Lance Stephenson of Cincinnati, 5-10 senior Nic Wise of Arizona, 6-3 senior AJ Slaughter of Western Kentucky and 6-10 Ryan Richards of England will work out for the Bucks.
The NBA draft is scheduled Thursday, and the Bucks have two second-round picks (Nos. 37 and 47) in addition to the 15th pick. (109)
Sharp-shooting Henry pays a visit
St. Francis – Kansas freshman guard Xavier Henry headlined a group of six players who took part in a pre-draft workout Monday at the Bucks training center.
The 6-foot-6 Henry is known for his ability to shoot the basketball and he thinks he would be a good fit in Milwaukee next season, especially since it's uncertain whether Michael Redd and/or John Salmons will be with the team next season. »Read Full Blog Post(75)
Another Kansas player gets a look
One day after Kansas shooting guard Xavier Henry worked out for the Bucks, another Jayhawks player will get a chance to impress coach Scott Skiles and Bucks officials on Tuesday.
Senior point guard Sherron Collins, projected as a second-round pick, is part of a six-man group working out at the Cousins Center, just two days before the NBA draft.
Also working out for Milwaukee are: 6-5 La Salle senior Rodney Green; 6-10 Arizona State senior Aaron Boateng; 6-8 Illinois State senior Dinma Odiakosa; 6-7 Robert Morris senior Billy Rush and 6-10 Marko Keselj of Serbia. (105)
How valuable are the pre-draft workouts?
St. Francis - With Thurday's NBA college draft quickly approaching, the Bucks pre-draft workouts are finally winding down.
The Bucks conducted another workout at their training center Tuesday morning and may have one final get-together Wednesday although they haven't decided for sure on that yet. »Read Full Blog Post(24)
Bucks acquire Maggette for Bell, Gadzuric
The Bucks have completed a trade late Tuesday afternoon to acquire forward Corey Maggette from the Golden State Warriors in exchange for guard Charlie Bell and center Dan Gadzuric, the team confirmed.
The Bucks also will receive a second-round pick in Thursday's draft from the Warriors, the 44th overall selection. That means Milwaukee currently has four picks - No. 15 overall and three in the second round (Nos. 37, 44 and 47).
The 30-year-old Maggette was a high-scoring small forward and sometimes the sixth man for the Warriors, averaging 19.8 points and 5.3 rebounds in Golden State's high-octane offense. »Read Full Blog Post(318)
Douglas-Roberts to the Bucks?
There are various reports out there that the Bucks are on the verge of acquiring Chris Douglas-Roberts from the Nets. In fact, Douglas-Roberts hinted to just that as well.
Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! has been posting updates on his Twitter feed of the potential deal. At first Wojnarowski said it would be for the No. 44 overall pick, then the No. 44 or No. 47 pick, but his last update (as I write this) says "Teams working on a future draft consideration."
ESPN.com's Chad Ford also says the Bucks and Nets are in "serious negotiations" concerning Douglas-Roberts. »Read Full Blog Post(85)
Bucks set to acquire Douglas-Roberts
A source confirmed Wednesday that the Bucks are expected to make another trade, acquiring New Jersey Nets guard Chris Douglas-Roberts in exchange for a 2012 second-round pick.
The Bucks still have four picks in the draft Thursday, including the No. 15 overall pick and three in the second round.
General manager John Hammond said this regarding Douglas-Roberts at a press briefing on Wednesday: "We're not going to speculate on something that hasn't happened yet and could go away yet." »Read Full Blog Post(175)
Hammond says Maggette is here to stay
St. Francis – In a draft-eve press conference Wednesday, Bucks general manager John Hammond dismissed rumors that the Bucks had obtained veteran Corey Maggette in a trade with Golden State Tuesday merely to package him as a part of another deal and move him elsewhere.
According to Hammond, Maggette is here to stay. »Read Full Blog Post(153)
Final mock drafts
With the draft closing in here's the final predictions for Milwaukee's pick(s) from around the Web:
- Rick Bonnell of McClatchey Newspapers - Kentucky power forward Patrick Patterson. "They've filled the two tough spots at center (Andrew Bogut) and point guard (Brandon Jennings). Now they're looking for depth in-between."
Brandon Jennings will critique the picks
Brandon Jennings is blogging live from Madison Square Garden for Slam Online.
What can one expect from Jennings tonight? He says "Um…a lot of trash talk. I'm going to be the guy critiquing everyone."
Hm, what will he say about the Bucks pick? »Read Full Blog Post(16)
NBA draft first round (live)
We will update pick by pick on the first round of the NBA draft. Here we go.
Kentucky guard John Wall is the top pick in the NBA draft, to the Washington Wizards. This was hardly a secret. It seems Wall could be playing with guard Kirk Hinrich, according to reports that the Chicago Bulls have traded Hinrich and the No. 17 pick (acquired from the Bucks) to the Wizards to free up cap space for Chicago.
The deal would give the Bulls space to pursue two maximum-salary free agents. »Read Full Blog Post(141)
Sanders is Bucks' pick at No. 15
The Bucks begin the non-lottery portion of the draft by selecting 6-foot-11, 235-pound power forward Larry Sanders from Virginia Commonwealth, with the 15th overall pick.
Sanders should give the Bucks some needed inside help for center Andrew Bogut. And Milwaukee was looking to replenish its center-forward positions with veteran Kurt Thomas becoming a free agent this summer and Dan Gadzuric gone in a trade to Golden State earlier this week.
Sanders is a good shot-blocker who averaged 14.4 points, 9.1 rebounds and 2.6 blocks as a junior at Virginia Commonwealth. »Read Full Blog Post(247)
Bucks take forward Hobson with initial second-round pick
With the first of their three second-round draft picks in the 2010 NBA draft, the Bucks selected forward Darington Hobson of New Mexico.
Harrington, 6-foot-7, 205 pounds, averaged 15.9 points and 9.3 rebounds this past season and made 36.1% of his three-point attempts. (47)
Bucks select center Jordan with No. 44 overall pick
With their second pick of the second round, No. 44 overall, the Bucks selected center Jerome Jordan of Tulsa.
A 7-footer, Jordan averaged 15.4 points, 9.1 rebounds and 2.3 blocks this past season.
Jordan averaged 2.6 blocks per game as a junior and 3.7 blocks per game as a sophomore. (38)
Bucks pick forward Gallon with final second-round selection
With their third and final second-round pick, No. 47 overall, the Bucks selected forward Tiny Gallon of Oklahoma.
Gallon, who is 6-foot-9 and right around 300 pounds, averaged 10.3 points and 7.9 rebounds in his only season with the Sooners. (123)
Sanders not in "project" category: Hammond
St. Francis - Bucks general manager John Hammond said he doesn't consider 6-foot-11 power forward Larry Sanders a project.
The Bucks took Sanders with the 15th pick in the first round of Thursday's NBA draft, a move made to bolster the team's length and athleticism.
"It all comes down to opportunity," Hammond said in his remarks after the Bucks made four picks in the draft. "And if a guy gets an opportunity and performs, people don't call him a project. They say he can play. »Read Full Blog Post(28)
Early analysis of Bucks' picks
We won't know for a while how the Bucks' picks will pan out - and it appears as though Jerome Jordan won't even play for Milwaukee - but that never stops the pundits from grading out the selections ... and we don't mind, because it makes for great fodder.
So with that, here's what they are saying about Milwaukee's draft picks:
- CBSSports.com loves the Larry Sanders pick, giving the Bucks an A grade, adding in a little dig at the guy he's replacing, saying "Sure, the money is great. But the best part about being Sanders today: He's got awfully small (Dan Gadzuric) shoes to fill." The second-round grades weren't as kind - D, D and C, although that middle D is for Jordan. On Darington Hodson: "With the recent acquisition of Corey Maggette, you'd have thought the Bucks would identify upgrading other positions as a higher priority." On Tiny Gallon: "Another big-man selection by the Bucks. The rationale is clear: Where there is no quality, draft quantity."
- ESPN.com didn't give grades, but did offer up some analysis. On Sanders: "The Bucks addressed their needs at the wing by trading for Corey Maggette and Chris Douglas-Roberts. So now they go big, taking a player with upside in Sanders. He's a long, athletic shot blocker, the type of player Milwaukee needs. He's not a sure thing, but he has the potential to be a disruptive defensive force for the Bucks." The second-rounders (sans Jordan): On Hobson: "Hobson is a lanky point forward with a high basketball IQ. He doesn't have great explosiveness and he's thin, but a good pick here." On Gallon: "Tiny Gallon reminds me of a taller Big Baby. He can really shoot the basketball and if he can get in shape, he's a great value pick here."
- SI.com gave Sanders a rank of 7.0 (out of 10), which is the lowest grade of any of the top 16 picks.
- FoxSports.com says Sanders should become a "solid pro."
- Yahoo! Sports' Jeff Eisenberg says Sanders was "one of the more intriguing big man prospects left on the board ... [he's] very raw offensively with his back to the basket, but he has good length and athleticism." Eisenberg on the second-rounders: Hobson - "Darington Hobson blossomed into a star as a junior at New Mexico, but an inconsistent jump shot and a lack of elite athleticism prevented the small forward from breaking into the first round." Gallon - "Embroiled in a scandal at Oklahoma that would have put his eligibility into question next season, Keith "Tiny" Gallon felt as if he had no choice but to leave school after his freshman season. He has NBA size and good touch around the rim, but it will be an uphill battle for him to make a roster."
- The Sporting News' Mike Decourcy doesn't seem fond of Sanders. He writes: "Sanders can be an exceptional shot-blocker, but staying on the court will require that he develop other means of helping his team. He is an ordinary rebounder, is not a target on offense and might not be strong enough to hold his ground defensively. Although mid-majors don't have a lot of first-rounders, not many at VCU wept at his departure."
- Also from The Sporting News, Sean Deveney claims Scott Skiles as one of the "winners" of the draft.

Douglas-Roberts acquired for 2012 pick
The Bucks' trade for New Jersey Nets guard Chris Douglas-Roberts is official, with Milwaukee sending a 2012 second-round draft pick to the Nets in return.
Douglas-Roberts played in 67 games for the Nets last season and made 38 starts, averaging 9.8 points and 3.0 rebounds in 25.8 minutes per game.
The 6-foot-7, 210-pound guard will give the Bucks some depth at the shooting guard position. The 23-year-old Detroit native was the 40th overall selection by the Nets in the 2008 draft, after he played three seasons at the University of Memphis and helped the Tigers reach the NCAA final in 2008. »Read Full Blog Post(137)
Maynor makes right pick
Former Virginia Commonwealth guard Eric Maynor had a feeling his friend and ex-teammate, Larry Sanders, was going to the Bucks with the No. 15 pick in Thursday night's draft.
Maynor and James Harden, both members of the Oklahoma City Thunder, were with Sanders while he waited nervously for the news of his NBA destination.
"Eric called it," Sanders said at a news conference Friday at the Bradley Center. "He said, 'This is you, right here at 15.'" »Read Full Blog Post(60)
This & that: More draft grades, Larry Sanders & more

Salmons opts out of contract
The news the Bucks had expected since the end of the playoffs came on Tuesday: shooting guard John Salmons opted out of the final year of his contract, making him an unrestricted free agent.
When the free agency negotiating period opens Thursday, Salmons will be able to discuss contract terms with any NBA team.
Salmons declined to exercise the $5.8 million option on the final year of his contract. »Read Full Blog Post(156)
Douglas-Roberts reflects on long, losing season
St. Francis - Sure, Chris Douglas-Roberts recalls scoring a career-high 31 points against the Bucks last season at the Bradley Center. Not that he gains much satisfaction from the memory.
"I had my career high but we still lost," he said. "We lost by like 15." »Read Full Blog Post(27)
Delfino stays with Bucks
Forward Carlos Delfino will return to the Bucks for the 2010-'11 season, a source confirmed Wednesday.
The Bucks faced a Wednesday deadline if they had wanted to make a change with Delfino, who had only $500,000 in guaranteed money for the second year of his three-year contract. By making no move, Delfino will be owed the full $3.5 million for the second year of the deal.
The third year is a team option, also valued at $3.5 million. »Read Full Blog Post(278)

The next transfer window is fast approaching and the rumors are starting to swirl around already.
Chelsea, by its very nature, is linked to many top-quality, world-class players every window. Some we'll sign and some we won't.
And even though many of the players we're linked with would be great additions to our side, there are some whom I believe we'd be wise to stay well clear of.
Here's five of those players.

Infamous 228 - Infamous - beautiful
I have purchased other marc Jacobs beauty products and am very happy with them. So I thought I would try out this lipstick range. I chose Infamous, so happy with the colour I chose. Great pigmentation, felt and looked great on my lips. Lasted a long time and scent was lovely. Definitely going to get more of the other colours of this range. Recommend it to all.

J Adore 230 - Ms
Lovely satin finish lipstick. If you have a more wrinkly lips this lipstick will make your lips look smoother. Hope to see more colour in the future. For e.g. shades of pink and purple, more pinkish nude or orange nude.

J Adore 230 - Lovely color
Love the color and the texture. It is not drying and the color could last pretty long, reapply is needed after meals but very minimal. Love the lipstick container too as it comes with magnetic mechanism. It is a lil expensive but I think it's worth it.

Clara 218 - Clara & Je'Taime
I bought the Je'taime and Clara during the Sephora sale. The lipstick is very pigmented and weightless at the same time. Its not creamy but application is super smooth and glides like a dream. Super super in love with the Marc Jacobs lipstick. This is my first MJB product. Interested to try out the rest!

haha! What a cutie….recipe sounds good. Merry Christmas!
haha! What a cutie….recipe sounds good. Merry Christmas!
Dorothy said the same . With me its as soon as they come out of the oven.
will try your recipe for new year's eve. I made treacle toffee as its one off for Christmas. and its soooo easy to make, only two ingredients.
and this water buffalo butter is oh so creamy. it reflects in the taste of the toffee. only problem was I do not have a toffee hammer so I had to use the claw hammer. and ended up with tiny pieces. did not spoil the taste though. Have a nice day. ps, did you enjoy my Christmas special.
I will be trying those cookies Mary, and aw come on, you could spare just one for "Star". He's been so good this year…
Love your Christmas rug! It reminds me of cookie
cutters, too! cute…
Merry Christmas!
Bear Hugs~Karen
Gayle – your nativity rug is awesome – I LOVE the border – you simply must get it done. Thanks for the comment on my blog. Merry Christmas to your and yours and many happy loops in the new year! Melody

Waiting till the last minute to do your Christmas buying can be just downright difficult. In addition, it can make it unbelievably hard to find the perfect present for each person on your wish list. Additionally those who wait till the last minute to finish their Christmas shopping are frequently faced with the capacity for a looming credit card financial obligation for the start of the following year since they did the bulk of their Christmas shopping in December of the previous year. For all of the reasons above it makes a great deal of sense to get your Christmas shopping done early.
Those who complete their Christmas buying early get a good deal of benefits. To start with they do not have to deal with crowded shopping areas as crowds of other shoppers are likewise attempting to finish their last minute Christmas buying. Consumers who finish their Christmas buying early also have more time to unwind and concentrate on other activities such as designing, covering presents, baking cookies or simply investing some fairly time with family. Finally, those who complete their Christmas buying early also acquire financial benefits. They can make the most of sales which occur all year if they expanded their buying plus they do not need to worry about spending for all of their purchases at one time.
Now that you understand all the advantages of getting your Christmas Buying done early, you might still wonder how you can attain this objective. One way to do this is to think of Christmas buying as a year long occasion. Sit down quickly after the Christmas season making a list of each person you seek to acquire presents for in the following Christmas season. You can likewise write down a few gift ideas for each of these people as well. Creating a list at this time gives you an entire year to spend time looking for presents for each member on your list. For example you may want to purchase a certain CD for your sibling. If it is a hard CD to discover, you have a lot of time to start finding this time. If it is a CD that is simple to discover, you can plan on waiting until it goes on sale and may find you are able to save a fair bit of money by doing this.
If you plan on getting your Christmas shopping done early by buying all year for friends or family members, you ought to always keep your shopping list useful. Your wallet is an excellent location to keep it so it is always available when you are out shopping. Not just should you always bring your list with you however you need to keep it approximately date. As you buy a gift for each individual on your list, cross off their name and jot down the real present you picked if it was various from the present idea you had actually jotted down initially. This vital because it will help to prevent you from buying several presents for those on your list because you forgot you had currently purchased their present.
While getting your Christmas buying done early does have some distinct benefits, there are also pitfalls to this type of shopping. Those who do their shopping throughout the year are commonly not as spending plan conscious as those who shop at the eleventh hour. This is because those who shop at the eleventh hour understand the costs for all of their Christmas gifts will be coming to roughly the very same time. Nevertheless, those who go shopping early frequently lose track of just how much they are spending on Christmas gifts since the costs blend in with routine monthly expenses. To prevent this issue, those who prepare to shop throughout the year ought to set a budget for Christmas presents. They should identify ahead of time just how much they want to invest in everyone on their list and must try not to surpass this quantity.
Christmas is the very best amongst all seasons. Holiday season is the very best for household gatherings, hanging out with buddies, and snowball battles. All of us wish to enjoy holiday season.

SAGINAW, MI — Businesses along South Hamilton in Saginaw have seen the negative effects of construction this summer, as their main access road was closed to traffic.
But some of the Old Town business district's proprietors also see the construction as an opportunity; to remodel their bars and restaurants and to open the sidewalk along Hamilton to their patrons.
Paul Barrera, owner of Jake's Old City Grill at 100 S. Hamilton, said he plans to spend at least $50,000 in restaurant renovations and in creation of a new patio dining area.
"After eight years of operations, we felt this is a great opportunity to freshen the overall presence of Jake's in preparation of our introduction of metropolitan-city style sidewalk dining in Old Town," Barrera said. "Most of the changes will be geared to making Jake's an even more inviting and vibrant environment for our guests."
The outdoor seating area, expected to accommodate more than 70 patrons, will feature new extended awnings and radiant heaters.
Barerra is not the only business owner on South Hamilton to take advantage of the wider sidewalks designed as part of the road project.
Tim Vitu, manager of Retro Rocks Pub at 110 S. Hamilton, said the bar and restaurant also plans to install a fenced-in patio area with high-top outdoor tables.
"Where this is really going to be a benefit to us is for our nightlife crowd," Vitu said. "It's something that we've wanted, well, since they first proposed this construction years ago."
He admitted that the road construction makes it tough on the businesses, but said he understands there are benefits as well as drawbacks.
"Last month we were down, but not nearly as much as we anticipated," Vitu said. "We're looking forward to it being done. Everything is going to be nice and shiny and new."
The $1.1 million road project includes the installation of a new water main and total road reconstruction.
The project eliminates several parking spaces on the east side of the street, which will allow for a wider sidewalk. About 13 feet of that sidewalk closest to the businesses will be open for owners to use for outdoor cafe-style seating.
The project is slightly behind schedule, with the completion date bumped back from July 25 to Aug. 5.
Tom Miller Jr., owner of J.B. Meinberg and Woody O'Brien's at 116 S. Hamilton, said the side of his business known as Woody O'Brien's will undergo an "exciting" transformation, though he declined to go into detail about the changes.
"We're in the early stages to re-tool Woody's," Miller said.
Miller's was one of the first businesses on Hamilton to offer outdoor seating, with a small fenced-in area filled with high-top bar tables. He called the street construction along Hamilton "painful but necessary."
"We're all excited about the changes that are coming for Hamilton Street," Miller said. "The city and this contractor have been doing an amazing job of trying to keep the process moving."
Miller said his business will remain open for normal hours throughout the remainder of the street construction project.
Vitu said Retro Rocks has already gone through its remodel, with new flooring installed as well as improvements to the restrooms and the bar itself. The business will also remain open during construction.
The closure of Jake's will be, in part, to accommodate construction related to the new West Bank Lofts development project underway in the floors above the restaurant.
During the restaurant's closure, Barerra said crews will make several improvements to the interior and exterior, including expanding Jake's draft beer offerings — with an emphasis on Michigan craft brews. Barerra also plans to introduce a new happy hour program and new lunch and dinner menus with "unique sandwiches, signature small plates, and enhanced vegetarian or gluten-free choices" being added to existing menu options.
Jake's plans a grand-reopening for July 30, he said.
Old Town's entertainment district is tied together, Vitu said, and he is happy to see all the businesses along South Hamilton join together to make improvements and offer a new asset to their patrons.
"We know that we live or die as a district," Vitu said. "We're not an island down here."
Miller said he is excited to see the new look with a brand new street, sidewalk and outdoor cafes fronting the three businesses at the heart of the district.
"I think it will be a nice addition to Old Town," he said.

Best of Toronto
The Best Sports Bars in Toronto
The best sports bars in Toronto are loud and rowdy places to catch the game with fellow fans. They run the gamut from massive, modern behemoths to cozier neighbourhood spots, but they all stream games with the sound on and feature an average beer selection and concessions that'll make even ticket holders envious.
Here are the best sports bars in Toronto.
Real Sports Bar
The 25,000 square-foot MLSE-owned space boasts 200 HD TVs and 114 draught beers. Find the place packed at game time as sports fans cheer on the local team and get down with chicken wings and nachos. More »
The Dock Ellis
This low-key, indie sports bar on Dundas West covers all of the bases with plenty of TVs, craft beers on tap, foosball and pool tables. If you've worked up an appetite, try the wonton nachos or Sriracha lime wings. More »
The Dog & Bear
This neighbourhood sports bar in West Queen West airs all Leafs, Raptors, Jays, NFL and EPL games on its nine TVs, including a 70 inch projector. Choose from 20 brews on tap and score beer-friendly foods like wings, Philly cheesesteaks, nachos and burgers while you're there. More »
The Contender
Who needs pay-per-view when regular season games, playoffs, big fights and WWE Raw are all streaming live at this Dundas West bar? Daily beer specials as well as ballpark concessions, like hot dogs smothered in cheese sauce, chili nachos and big league sandwiches keep sports fans happy well into overtime. More »
Amsterdam Brewhouse
Catch the game on Toronto's waterfront at this sprawling brewpub where TVs surround the bar. Expect to find a wide range of house brews on tap, while the menu, with soft pretzels, pulled pork sandwiches and Buffalo cauliflower, wins big from the kitchen. More »
The Loose Moose
The Loose Moose, near the ACC and the Rogers Centre, is a convenient pre-gaming spot. Raucous fans congregate to catch the game with a vast selection of draught beers and a menu full of tacos and poutine that's far superior (and cheaper) than what's offered inside the stadium. More »
The Ballroom
Beers and bowling might be the main event at this bar in the Club District, but the multi-storey venue excels at sports-related entertainment of all kinds. It features lots of TVs, making it an excellent destination to take in a major league game; there are even screens by the bowling lanes so it's impossible to miss a touchdown or a goal. More »
TVs throughout the space, a rowdy local clientele and a lineup of reasonably priced beers, nachos and wings make this Bloorcourt roadhouse an ideal spot to cheer on your favourite team. More »
Wayne Gretzky's
Warm up with a poutine and a Molson Canadian at this hockey-first bar in the heart of Toronto. This is the place to be during playoff games, and while you'll find the place populated with feverishly loyal fans, you might also see the odd American tourist rooting for the opposite team. More »
Round the Horn
TV screens airing the game, sports memorabilia and trophy displays adorning the space set the right tone at this laid-back bar on Roncesvalles. The drinks menu is dominated by local brews, while a hot dog-centric snack menu is better is better than the ballpark concession stands. More »
The Craft Brasserie
This bar has a high score with 120 beers on tap. It's a source of pride for this beer hall in Liberty Village. It also has big screen TVs scattered throughout the space and its menu of beer glazed ribs, sliders and smoked wings up the ante on the average sports bar experience. More »
The Dizzy
NHL, NFL, CFL, NBA, MLB, MLS, BPL, NCAA and Champions League games are all televised at this local bar on Roncy. Whether you're celebrating a win or consoling a loss, the bar, stocked with draught beers and whisky, has your back. More »
Football Factory
As you might guess from the name, this bar is all about football. With TVs mounted inside every booth, you can find English Premier League and Toronto FC games everywhere so you won't miss any of the action. The place opens at 7 a.m. on weekends to accommodate overseas matches. More »
Leafs number 16, Mike Walton, a.k.a Shakey founded this bar. And while its ownership changed hands throughout the years, the place remains a magnet for Buds fans on game day. Shakey's lineup of craft beers, chili fries and burgers win big, no matter how badly the Leafs are doing. More »
Rally Sports Bar
This bar and smokehouse on O'Connor shows every major sporting event known to mankind and serves up a menu of BBQ and beers. Find 40-plus HD TVs throughout the 7,000 square foot-space tuned in to NFL, UEFA, NHL, NBA, MLB, UFC or boxing. More »

User:Melty girl
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I'm Melty Girl, and I have a background in communication research, media criticism, American socio-politics and music, as well as a lifelong obsessive mind for pop culture. I had a baby in 2008, so my Wikipedia activities have narrowed precipitously given my time constraints. I'm rarely around anymore.
I used to mainly poke around actor, director and film articles, making small additions, modifying articles as per Wikipedia policies and guidelines, adding sources, and reverting vandalism. I also occasionally helped out with FAC reviews. But I made some larger contributions too...
Main focus[edit]
Here's the progress on my pet project, the Cillian Murphy article:
- March 24, 2007. The article before I began contributing.
- August 24, 2007. I was the sole major contributor who brought this article to GA status: article then.
- September 17, 2007. And on to WikiProject Biography's A-class status: article then.
- September 21, 2007. My first FAC nomination: article then.
- October 23, 2007. FAC fails with 8 supports, 3 opposes: article then.
- November 4, 2007. After an immediate renomination, FA status is awarded: article then.
- Today. Cillian Murphy. (I haven't been updating the article very often anymore. I stop by occasionally.)
An editorial comment on the FAC process seems a bit odd and unconsensus-like, though I'm not sure precisely how it should be changed. Anyone can instruct you to do anything to the article, and it seems like you're just supposed to do it, whether or not the idea is on the mark -- it's not like the community often tries to evaluate each reviewer's ideas and come to consensus about them. It's usually the nominator going one-on-one with each reviewer as s/he pops up, negotiating separately with each, even as one contradicts the next. There's no way to know if the FA director has judged a rebuffed idea as ill-suited for the article or deemed a criticism inaccurate or unactionable, or rather if he will simply decide that a nominator didn't follow a reviewer's commands and is therefore out of order. The process just doesn't always feel collaborative or clear, and it can be a veeery loooong slog. I'm certainly pleased with how the article turned out ultimately, and that it did attain FA status, but I doubt that I'll work toward braving the FAC process again. Comments on this topic are very welcome -- I'm interested to know what others think.

Worldwide use of fossil fuels and other human activities have resulted in an atmospheric increase of carbon dioxide from 280 ppm around 1850 to 400 ppm today. Most climate scientists and governments agree that this ongoing increase is likely to cause climatic changes, which are detrimental to the economy, the ecology and human health. The (International Energy Agency) IEA and others e.g. Nicholas Stern have determined that the cost of not addressing carbon dioxide emissions will be higher than addressing the full economic impact of climate change.
Improving energy efficiency and switching to non-fossil fuel based power generation is essential in addressing the problem. However the existing energy infrastructure has a life expectancy of about fifty years and the impact of replacing this infrastructure prematurely would be deleterious to the economy. The capture of carbon dioxide at the point of release and the deep underground storage (CCS) thereof will help to decrease carbon dioxide emissions. CCS technology is a way of bridging the gap from today until the existing energy infrastructure is replaced with non-fossil fuel based power generation.
More than ninety percent of South Africa's power is generated from coal and other industries e.g. the synfuel industry also use large quantities of coal, which is resulting in the release of over 400 million tonnes of carbon dioxide annually. The South African government has committed the country to reduce carbon dioxide emissions and has established the South African Centre for Carbon Capture and storage (SACCCS) to investigate the feasibility of CCS in South Africa.

Local teen wins award for anti-suicide work
MARTINSBURG – Carrie Shade says she's unlucky. She rarely wins anything.
Recently, however, she scored a big win – and luck had nothing to do with it. It was all about working hard for something she believes in.
The Hedgesville High School junior was called to the stage at the New York Times Center during the fifth annual Shorty Awards to accept an award for maintaining Twitter's best account dedicated to activism. Carrie's feed, @AgainstSuicide, is designed to bring awareness to the issue of suicide and provide inspiration for those contemplating ending their lives.
"I didn't even have a speech ready," Carrie said of her surprise when hearing her name called. "My mind was just kind of like, 'Oh, snap, that's me.'"
Carrie says she doesn't even remember what she said in her acceptance speech, but her father, Dave, who watched at home via a webcast, did.
"She said, 'First of all, thank you all for voting for me,'" he said. "And then she said, 'It just goes to show, it doesn't matter how old you are or where you're from, you can do anything you set your mind to.'"
Carrie started the Twitter account, which now has more than 145,000 followers, in May 2011 after learning of the suicide of a friend with whom she had lost touch. Since, her mission to keep others from feeling the same hurt has touched many lives.
For her efforts, the 16-year-old was nominated for the Shorty Awards – an annual celebration of the best content creators on Twitter and other social media sites. When she was named a finalist in her category, she was invited to the award show in New York City.
That posed a problem for her, however, as room and board were not included. Her followers, however, helped raise the money to make the trip a reality.
"There were some really big donors, I don't know where they came from, but that really helped me," Carrie said. "Four people got it up (from $600) to like $1,700."
She and her older sister, Lindsay, were able to travel to New York for the weekend thanks to $2,000 raised for the trip through a fundraising website called GoFundMe. Train transportation and hotel lodging were expensive, Shade said, but she was able to save money by eating fast food while in the city.
Her father, Dave, said she had about $200 left when she got back home.
"She kept track of everything that she spent," he said. "She's the little tightwad of the family – she can stretch a dollar."
Carrie said she plans to donate the leftover funds to a suicide-related charity.
She also said that the fact that she was recognized for her work to help people through challenging times in their lives has only solidified her desire to continue her efforts.
"I feel like I might try to pursue something with it after high school, something related to it," she said.
The award, she said, lends credibility to the work she's done over the past two years as she looks toward her future.
"I've already put (the award) on my National Honor Society application," she said.
Among other Shorty Award winners at the event were Justin Bieber (Best Celebrity in Social Media), the Pittsburgh Steelers (Best Sports Team in Social Media), NASA (Best Government in Social Media) and the Mars Curiosity Rover (Foursquare Mayor of the Year). Special awards were given to George Takei (Distinguished Achievement in Internet Culture) and Jimmy Kimmel (Lifetime Achievement Award).
While many of the celebrity winners were not in attendance at the event, instead accepting their award by video, Carrie's face and a link to her Twitter feed are now listed on the Shorty Awards website among them all.
"I think it's pretty awesome," she said. "There's a lot of people on social media, and (to be chosen) out of those millions of people, that's pretty cool."

At Venice's Marco Polo Airport, you'll find a water-taxi ticket booth near the end of a covered walkway from the arrivals hall. See our illustrated step-by-step directions to the Alilaguna airport boat and water taxi piers. (Another option is a shared Airport Link water taxi, which is considerably cheaper than a private water taxi but double the price of the Alilaguna boat.)
At the Venice Santa Lucia Railway Station, the Piazzale Roma, and the Trochetto parking island, water taxis are down by the water.
In Venice, you can summon a water taxi by phoning the Consorzio Motoscafi Venezia at 041 522 2303 (24 hours a day) or e-mailing [email protected] Ask for a fare quotation before booking. (The Consorzio is a cooperative of water-taxi operators, with a fleet of more than 100 boats at its disposal.)
If you hire a water taxi through your hotel concierge or a travel agent, ask for a fare quotation before booking. Mark-ups can be outrageous. (We've heard of American travel agents charging US $150 per person for an airport transfer by water.)
Licensed water taxis have a yellow stripe with a license number. Be cautious in dealing with unlicensed taxi operators (especially on the parking island of Tronchetto, where crooks posing as "official" water-taxi drivers prey on unsuspecting tourists).
If you're getting a bit creaky or aren't used to small boats, be aware that boarding or disembarking from a water taxi at high or low tide can be tricky. See "A Warning about Water Taxis" in our Venice Travel Blog for more details.
For a virtual trip by taxi acqueo, see our Venice Travel blog video post, "A Water Taxi Ride to Venice Airport."
