A fifth championship banner in the San Antonio Spurs rafters.When the curtain rises on the NBAs season, another important debut will occur in Secaucus, New Jersey: The NBAs new instant replay centre will be open for business.Starting with Tuesday nights three games, referees in arenas across the league will work directly with the replay centre rather than with a television producer in a truck backstage to review disputed calls.And the early returns indicate the new system will be faster.We think its not only going to help our referees make more correct decisions, but also were certainly hopeful it will expedite the amount of time that referees spend at the table, NBA president of basketball operations Rod Thorn said.The centre features 94 television monitors and 20 replay stations. The system was tested during the preseason, and Thorn said times averaged about 49 seconds per replay, which was down from about 90 seconds during the regular season last year.The biggest complaint about the influx of replay over the last decade has been the effect it is having on the length of games. The league even tested out a 44-minute game during the preseason as it looks to address the issue.NBA executives in the new replay centre will be able to immediately identify camera angles that can help officials make the correct calls, which should speed the process. Technicians seated at the stations in the replay centre will have nine different camera angles in addition to access to the in-house camera feed and will also be able to show the referee multiple camera angles at the same time, which couldnt be done in the past.Referees on site will still have the final say in the decision. But the NBA hopes that working directly with league officials rather than a TV producer will help make communication easier as well.They still have the final decision, but were going to give them what they need to get their job done. So it should be a little bit easier for them that way.Thorn fully expects some bumps in the road as they implement the new system and get referees used to working with officials in the centre. But he fully believes that the new setup will help referees get more calls correctly in a speedier manner.Im sure there will be some glitches and some things we have to deal with as we get started here, he said.___Follow Jon Krawczynski on Twitter: http://twitter.com/APKrawczynski Wholesale Blue Jays Jerseys .C. -- Steve Spurrier was much happier about South Carolinas improved performance than about his lastest career milestone.

New team co-owner Marc Lasry indicated Monday that it is down to either Dukes Jabari Parker or Kansas Andrew Wiggins when the Bucks make the second overall selection in the draft Thursday night. Foot surgery for centre prospect Joel Embiid last week seems to have knocked Wiggins teammate with the Jayhawks out of the Bucks plans. With new ownership taking over a franchise that had a league-worst 15-67 record, Milwaukee is looking for immediate help. "I think its hard to take Embiid," Lasry said Monday at a joint breakfast meeting of the regions Rotary Club and the Milwaukee Press Club. "I think hes a phenomenal individual, but with the injury and not knowing how severe or long it will take to recover, I think for us today were going to want somebody whos going to help us on Day One." New York investment firm executives Lasry and Wesley Edens bought the Bucks this spring for $550 million from former U.S. Sen. Herb Kohl. According to Lasry, Edens watched Wiggins work out recently. If they need a reference on Parker, the Bucks can just go across town to talk with new Marquette coach Steve Wojciechowski, who worked with Parker when he was a Blue Devils assistant. "A lot is going to be dependent on what Cleveland does," Lasry said. "But I would tell you right now its probbably either going to be .dddddddddddd.. one of the other." This will be a pivotal pick for a franchise in transition. Lasry envisions building a championship-contending team within five years. At the same time, the new ownership group could also be seeking public financing to help build a new arena to replace the BMO Harris Bradley Center, though its unclear yet how much funding they might seek. The new owners have estimated that it could take $350-$400 million for a new arena. Lasry and Edens have committed $100 million, and Kohl has committed another $100 million. Lasry said Monday he hoped to find other people to help come up with the difference and would welcome public support. New potential minority investors in the Bucks could also be announced by July 15. Lasry said he hoped to add local partners. Lasry spoke of building a foundation of young players over the next two or three seasons that would help attract free agents. Among the more promising current young Bucks are guards Brandon Knight (17.9 points) and Giannis Antetokounmpo (6.8 points), and power forward John Henson (11.1 points, 7.1 rebounds). "Nobodys coming to Milwaukee if the team does what it did last year," said Lasry, who added that the payroll would increase. Lasry also said that the team would soon announce the hiring of a chief financial officer, and would be hiring a team president. ' ' '
