Milwaukee Bucks tell Charlie Villanueva not to Twitter during games anymore.

Bucks forward Charlie Villanueva got a talking-to from Skiles after the coach learned Villanueva posted a message to his Twitter feed – a “tweet” – from his mobile phone during halftime of Sunday’s home victory over the Boston Celtics.

The team wins, Villanueva scores a team-high 19 points, and the coach has the audacity to reprimand him? Unreal. If it were a team rule or policy I could understand it – well, no, even then I would question the policy itself. It’s time to embrace technology and leverage its benefits, not suppress it and lose out.
