Villanueva Blogs For NBA.com
Published 10/17/2007 by alex at boederbucks
Forward Charlie Villanueva blogged for NBA.com on October 10. It's worth reading in its entirety. I've quoted one section where he spoke very kindly about Yi Jianlian, in addition to a lineup he recommends the Bucks use this year. ...

Thursday Bucks Notes

... points us in the direction of Charlie Villanueva's new blog at NBA.com. We tend to forget about athletes while they're rehabbing, but CV's blog is a really good read if only because it details the pain, frustration and patience required with rehabbing from a major injury. My mom (Dora Mejia) was a great help throughout the entire process. She would help me with the exercises as well as with the simple things, like getting dressed in the morning or eating my meals. Also, I had to cautiously learn how to take care of the incisions so they wouldn’t get infected. It was a really tough time for me. Oh yeah and sleeping was the absolute worst. I had to try sleep in a semi-reclined position with this huge cushioned sling, which was so uncomfortable. I would add one or two pillows to support the elbow all across, so that it didn't fall back against the bed. It was a lot of work at first. Especially with this bein ...

Camp So Far...

... so far he'd been losing ground to Yi until last night the Denver game when he went off for 21/11/5. On a good note he's going to do more than Yi at least this year, but it seems like Yi's effort on both ends gives him the edge to start. While you knew his soft defense would be a problem playing for LK, his talent is undeniable and he's got a lot to prove after an injury-plagued first season in Milwaukee. The Bucks seem to be using him largely on the perimeter thus far, which is somewhat disappointing because he has a terrific feel around the hoop (something he took more advantage of last night). I'm hoping we see more aggressiveness from him going forward, though it's possible he's still a little tentative inside after coming back from all the shoulder problems. Keep in mind he faced a difficult rehab from shoulder surgery, so he didn't have the chance to work out much until the end of the summer. While the word is he was privately upset with the Bucks' drafting of Yi, ...

NBA Blog Watch: Flea Returns, Moon Lands, and Latrell Spreewell Stays Classy

... . - Milwaukee Bucks’ forward Charlie Villanueva , who was on somewhat of a tear before spraining his ankle last night in averaging 15.4 points, 7.4 boards, and 47.6% FG over his previous five games, weighs in on a typical (?) road game in Hollywood against the Los Angeles Lakers (third header down). High-end tailors on call in the hotel lobby to fulfill those last-minute, custom-made suit needs, a Dave Chapelle sighting, and dinner at Mr. Chow’s, who serve what Villanueva deems “a bit overpriced, but still slamming superb cuisine.” - HoopsAddict’s ...

... Check out Charlie Villanueva's blog over on NBA.com. He's got some interesting perspectives on the Bucks moves this summer, the outlook for this season, and how he has supposedly been refining his diet. Something I found interesting was the fact that he had his first child this summer. Often time that maturing process you go thru as a first time parent carries over to the rest of your life. Maybe Charlie will finally be able to channel all that talent he has into consistent performances on both ends of the floor. ...
