NBA All-Rookie Team

The Golden State Warriors are the 2017 NBA Champions! On Monday night, the team brought a 3-1 lead back to Oracle Arena with a bit of doubt creeping in after last year's crushing defeat. However, the team was able to outlast a fired up Cleveland Cavaliers team to grab a 129-120 victory in Game 5. That gave the Golden State Warriors their second NBA Championship within the past three seasons. Here's a look at how the Warriors were able to grab the Larry O'Brien trophy thanks to key performances…

Many sports fans were not happy with Durant’s decision and thought that he was taking the easy way out to win a championship. Fast forward to June 2018 and Durant is a two-time NBA champion and two-time NBA Finals MVP. Even though he has reached a certain success to this point, his decision still bothers some…

He set a career-high in field goal percentage (45.4 percent) while making 35.6 percent of his three-pointers, but his free-throw percentage fell dramatically (70.8 percent) compared to 2015-16 (84.3 percent). All in all Holiday fills the stat sheet solidly, with shooting percentages that won’t hurt fantasy owners too much. It’s worth noting, however, that only 9.4 percent of Holiday’s field goal attempts in 2016-17 came off catch and shoot. Off three or more dribbles…

There are two different people who fit this mold, one is former Brooklyn Nets basketball player Andrei Kirilenko who played for the team in 2013-2014 and the other, is the man that employed him. This unique individual is none other than the current majority owner of the Brooklyn Nets Mikhail Prokhorov. Sitting at over 8.9 billion dollars in net worth, in 2010 the NBA approved Prokhorov to purchase 80% of the then New Jersey Nets. Since then he has ran for President in Russia and claimed that…

This season, it is no secret that the Cleveland Cavaliers desperately need help at the backup point guard spot. With no solid backup option behind All-Star Kyrie Irving, he has had to log a lot of minutes. Right now, he is averaging 35.2 minutes per game. The Cavaliers know that if they want to make it back to the NBA Finals and defeat the Golden State Warriors, they need another option behind Irving. On Saturday, Marc Stein of ESPN reported that the Cavs could target either Utah Jazz point…

Both 'Half-past Two' and 'Hide and Seek' portray the theme of being left alone through the use of language, form, and structure of each of the two poems. In 'Half-past Two', a child is put into detention for doing “Something Very Wrong” until half-past two; he doesn't know how to tell the time. As a result, doesn't know when to leave, he stays there daydreaming until the teacher remembers him, and she sends him away. 'Hide and Seek' is also about a child who is left alone. The poem is a story…

spelling; it is a game with the involvement of bases. Football, by the spelling seems to be a game that involves your feet, which we all know is not the case, but seems ironic because most games are won by a field goal. A field goal is when the team places the ball on the ground with the assistance of a holder and the kicker kicks it through the goal post, if it is made, that team is given 3 points. There are hundreds, maybe thousands of differences. Baseball has innings; nine in a regulation…
