NBA Development League

according to Vegas odds they are expected to be the second best team in the East with fifty-one wins. A lot of commentators of the NBA would have you believe that they are in an enviable position with their stockpile of draft picks and young players. The signing of Al Horford seems to be a turning point in the rebuilding of the Celtics by acquiring the four time NBA all-star they finally added some legitimacy to their title hopes. But there are still a lot of questions for the Celtics throughout…

historical movements, as well as people and their legacies, have been explored. Stephen Curry is a very successful NBA player, that is still writing his legacy today. On March 14th, 1988, Wardell Stephen Curry ll was born in Akron, Ohio (Ott). Little did anybody know that he would bring his basketball team to a championship and win two MVP’s when he was at it. His father, former NBA star, played for the Charlotte Hornets, in North Carolina, so it was a given that Steph lived most of his…

college basketball Hall of Fame plaque hung on the wall. It had just recently been updated after the Hall of Fame presentation on Saturday. Everyone was telling me that I needed to declare that I’m joining the NBA as soon as possible! After everyone telling me, I then declared for the NBA draft halfway through the college season. The election for the new president was going on at that moment, they had been going on for quite a while, but I wasn’t really interested…

The Chicago Bulls handled their business (barely) against the short-handed Cleveland Cavaliers Wednesday night. The undermanned Cavs weren’t able to overcome being without three of their starters against Chicago, eventually falling to the Bulls 106-94 in Quicken Loans Arena. The loss snapped Cleveland’s nine-game winning streak at The Q. “I had a lot of combinations out there that guys were not used to playing with, but I just thought we competed,” Cavs head coach Tyronn Lue said. “We played…

to give the Cavs their hefty lead, added another milestone to his already lengthy list of accomplishments. With his third bucket against Philadelphia, James reached 9,000 field goals for his regular season career, becoming just the 20th player in league history to reach that mark. Only five active players have hit the 9,000 field goal plateau (Kobe Bryant, Kevin Garnett, Tim Duncan and Dirk Nowitzki), putting James in the elite of the elite’s company. Sixers big men Nerlens Noel and Okafor each…

irrelevant former star while waisting away on the Brooklyn Nets bench. There is plenty of frustration and blame that gets thrown around when a team struggles and the 2016-17 Brooklyn Nets are a tormented group. Saddled with the worst record in the NBA and no immediate future first round draft picks the Nets need more than a streaky injury prone point guard. Jeremy Lin signing a multi year deal with the Brooklyn Nets this past off season would have made sense if the team had hopes of…

their ultimate goal again this season, the Cleveland Cavaliers know they may have to get past the Toronto Raptors again in the Eastern Conference playoffs. The Cavs defeated the Raptors in six games in the East Finals last season to advance to the NBA Finals and ultimately claim their first championship in franchise history. Tuesday night, the Cavs and Raptors met for the second time this season, as Toronto sought to get past the hurdle that has been Cleveland of late. The Cavs had won the…

How important has government direction and policy been in the economic development and export success in countries of the Asia-Pacific region? The level of economic development and export success in the countries of the Asia-Pacific region is a phenomenon which many theorists have attempted to explain. Concerning whether or not there exist a significant relationship between government policies and such regional economic success, I argue that government direction and policy has been critically…

Asia Pacific Studies (IAPS), a tri-campus research institute in the University of Nottingham Ningbo China. Given my extreme interest in the fields of politics, in particular politics and theory of development, I want to deepen my understanding of the subject by undertaking postgraduate studies in Development Studies at the University of Cambridge. I have always loved my time working in IAPS. It is an extremely valuable experience for me to be able to participate in many of the research…
