INDIANAPOLIS -- Let the arguments begin. The NCAA, as part of the celebration of the 75th anniversary of March Madness, has released lists of the top players, teams and moments to help fans as they vote for those to be honoured at the Final Four. The NCAA said Tuesday that the fan voting, which will start in early January at NCAA.com/MarchMadness, will trim the list of 75 players to 15, and the 25 teams and 35 moments will be cut to one each. The lists were compiled and researched by the NCAAs basketball and statistics staffs, which consulted with the NCAAs media partners and selected members of the U.S. Basketball Writers Association. CBS Sports, CBS Sports Network and CBSSports.com, in conjunction with the NCAA, will air original programming commemorating 75 years of March Madness. wholesale jerseys .

"Our defence was embarrassing, pretty much from start to finish," Skiles said after Monta Ellis scored six of his 22 points in the final 2 minutes to help the Bucks hold off the New Orleans Hornets 117-113 on Saturday night for their third straight victory. "Neither team could stop each other, and we were fortunate to get a big block, make a couple of big baskets. It felt like that type of game, whoever had the lead with a couple of minutes to go was probably going to win the game, because nobody could stop anybody." Brandon Jennings also had 22 points, and Mike Dunleavy added 17, 16 of it in the first half, for Milwaukee, 6-2 in its best start since opening 9-1 in 2001-02. Top overall draft pick Anthony Davis had a season-high 28 points and tied his season high with 11 rebounds for New Orleans. Ryan Anderson added 20 points for the Hornets. Scoring wasnt the problem for the Bucks, but almost everything else was. "We played well offensively. We moved the ball like we always do. We scored," Skiles said. "That was not an issue tonight. They played last night and right from the beginning had more energy than we did. We just werent sharp at all." The Hornets lost to Oklahoma City 110-95 on Friday night, while the Bucks hadnt played since Wednesday night in a 99-85 victory at home over Indiana. Davis shot 10 of 14 from the field, made eight of nine free throws and had 11 rebounds. His consecutive three-point plays to pull the Hornets to 110-108 with 2:02 to play, but Ellis hit a 20-footer falling away from the basket for Milwaukee. Anderson tipped in a miss for New Orleans, and Ellis hit another jumper for the Bucks. After Anderson missed a shot from in close, Milwaukees Larry Sanders missed a layup, then made up for it when he blocked Andersons driving shot with 18.9 seconds to go and the Bucks clinging to a four-point lead. Anderson said that was a tough call that could easily have gone the other way. "I saw a very clear path to the rim," Anderson said. "I thought I got fouled. I went strong. To be honest, I really was expecting a call there, but you know it happens. Obviously, late (in the) game, they dont want to make a potentially qquestionable call.dddddddddddd Its tough. Its tough because it was a game obviously we wanted to win." The Bucks controlled the ball, forcing Roger Mason to foul Jennings, who made one of two free throws for a 115-110 lead with 12.3 seconds to go. After a timeout, Anderson hit a tough 3 with 4.8 seconds left. Greivis Vasquez immediately fouled Ellis and he made both free throws to cap the scoring. The last chance for the Hornets came when Davis inbound pass went across the court and off Masons hands as time expired. "I overthrew it," Davis said. "He was open for a shot. Its all about execution. I just overthrew the ball. Thats all." Davis said the close game was something the team could learn from, especially early in the season. "Well fix it," he said. "Well go back to the drawing board, look at film and see what we can do better. We stayed in the game the whole time. We had the lead sometimes. Weve got to learn from our mistakes. Weve got to talk more. Our communications got to get better." Hornets head coach Monty Ellis wasnt happy with the turnovers and poor defence under the Bucks basket. "I see 20 turnovers and 16 offensive rebounds that we gave up," he said. "Some of these things I expected with a young team, but we need to be better as a team." His 3-pointer gave the Hornets a 94-91 lead to start the fourth, but the Bucks answered with an 11-2 run sparked by two three-pointers from Beno Udrih and one from Jennings for a 102-96 lead with 8:12 to play. The Bucks were coming off a 99-85 victory over Indiana on Wednesday night, while the Hornets were beaten 110-95 by Oklahoma City on Friday night. The Hornets have lost four of five.
