PHILADELPHIA -- Paul Millsap is headed to his first NBA All-Star Game. jerseys from china . And the Atlanta Hawks could be headed for a prime seed in the Eastern Conference playoff race. Especially if Millsaps teammates continue to contribute like they did Friday night. Mike Scott and Elton Brand scored 18 points apiece to lead seven Hawks in double figures and Atlanta routed the Philadelphia 76ers 125-99. DeMarre Carroll contributed 13, Paul Millsap, Jeff Teague and Lou Williams had 12 apiece, and Kyle Korver added 11 for the Hawks, who moved within eight games of the Miami Heat for first place in the Southeast Division. "Guys have to be ready," said Brand, who added eight rebounds. "You never know when your name is going to be called." Millsap learned on Thursday that he had been named to his first NBA All-Star Game in his eight-year career. He spent the first seven seasons with the Utah Jazz and signed with the Hawks as a free agent last July. Millsap, who will be a reserve for the Eastern Conference All-Stars next month in New Orleans, received plenty of help against the Sixers. "Hes been one guy weve leaned on heavily this year," Hawks coach Mike Budenholzer said. Teague was a game-time decision with a sprained left ankle and he responded with a productive start. "Weve been happy with Jeff," Budenholzer said. "He set a tone early. I thought he was attacking the basket." Thaddeus Young scored 29 points, Michael Carter-Williams added 17 and Elliot Williams had 15 for the Sixers, who have dropped 11 of their last 13 home games, including five straight. The Sixers, now 8-16 at home, havent lost five in a row at home since the 2009-10 season. "It was the poorest performance of our season tonight," Sixers coach Brett Brown said. "The effort wasnt there." Atlanta led 27-21 after the first quarter and took advantage of 10 Philadelphia turnovers, a season high for any quarter. After going into the locker room with a 64-52 advantage at the break, the Hawks blitzed the Sixers for 38 points in the third quarter to take a 102-75 lead and prompt a chorus of boos from Sixers fans. "We had a lot of turnovers and that was the biggest thing," Young said. "Just too many turnovers." Before the game, Brown praised the Hawks ball movement and the fluidity of their offence. Atlantas precision was evident as it had 36 assists on 45 made field goals.

FRANCIS, Wis. -- Caron Butler smiled a lot through his first Milwaukee Bucks practice. He cajoled younger players and may have unnerved his new coach at the foul line. Larry Drew missed after his veteran forward said something at the last second during a lighthearted moment at practice. "Yeah," Butler said with a grin about needling Drew. "We needed that. Coach lined it up. We bothered him a little bit and he missed it, so that was fun." Yup, Butler sure loves being back in his home state. Butlers had a busy off-season since he was last on the court. The two-time NBA All-Star was dealt from the Clippers to the Phoenix Suns in a three-team deal in July that also involved the Bucks sending J.J. Redick to Los Angeles. Six weeks later, the Bucks ended up dealing for Butler directly by sending point guard Ish Smith and centre Viacheslav Kravstov to Phoenix. The end result is Butler, entering his 12th year in the league, is back in Wisconsin and just a 30-mile drive from his hometown of Racine. Butler has been ebullient about being back home in the month since the deal has been announced. Hes also focused on getting ready for camp as the off-season ticked away. "Talked to Coach Drew a little early about some things, where he wants me and what he expects out of me," Butler said. "Just prepare for that instead of just, you know, being home. I toned down and stayed to work as usual." The 6-foot-7 Butler figures to start at small forward, especially with Carlos Delfino out indefinitely after suffering a setback involving a right foot injury from last seasons playoffs. A sstarter for the Clippers the last two seasons, Butler has averaged 15. cheap jerseys. 5 points in stops that also include Miami, the Los Angeles Lakers, Washington and Dallas. Hes eager to get going in what he described would be an up-tempo system that would spread the ball around. The Bucks have re-made their roster. Besides Redick, they also jettisoned notable veterans Brandon Jennings and Monta Ellis while adding Brandon Knight and O.J. Mayo. In total, only four players have returned from last seasons team, and theyre playing with a new coach in Drew. Which turns Butler, 33, into a sort of "Welcome to Milwaukee" tour guide, too, to go with his veteran locker-room presence. "Caron is a guy, when you talk about the leadership, and what hes capable of, I see him as a ... shot-maker, a guy you put out on the floor," Drew said. "And I love what he brings to the locker room." He might be expected to pass on Drews defensive message, too. On the first day of practice, signs simply reading "43%" were plastered across the Bucks training facility in suburban Milwaukee. No explanation by what it meant on the signs themselves, but the players figured it out pretty quick -- its the percentage that Drew would like to hold opponents on field-goal attempts. "You usually see it in the locker room, but just like that as were doing this interview now," said Butler, glancing up at a 43 per cent looming over the practice facility, "thats just a reinforcement. I love his approach and the way hes tackling this whole thing." Welcome back to Wisconsin, Caron. ' ' '
