Shootaround

I suppose someone has to
- It's a Dayton week, and Tom Archdeacon of Dayton Daily News is giving Chris Wright a chance to get his hypocrite on. Archdeacon's holier-than-thou thoughts on respect between opponents are amusing. Said Wright in another article that Archdeacon evidently didn't read, "Some of us really hate each other," and "But it’s part of that being between the lines deal. I don’t want to shake their hands." Good stuff, Chris.

- The Diamond Head Classic field is set and, according to ESPN,  Xavier is one of the "other teams" in a field that includes K. State, Clemson, and Auburn. This is another great December grab for Mario Mercurio.


- Last year the Musketeers got waxed at Dayton. Shannon Russell compiled some of the players' thoughts on that and what the key was to winning at UD Arena this year.


- Jordan Crawford was traded from the Atlanta Hawks to the Washington Wizards. If you like the NBA, that's probably big news.


- It's Insider content on ESPN, but Joe Lunardi's latest bubble breakdown is simple and cuts through a lot of the extra stuff you'll find elsewhere. Here at the Examiner we'd love to see Boston College and Baylor get in while Gonzaga and Butler stay home.


- Finally, if you haven't seen the Jeff Robinson dunk yet, here it is. That's a hammer.
