Playoffs

from there I went to the NBA playoffs which were about to start at that time. I always try to do assignments on things I enjoy. It makes everything easy. Also after the first week I found out that we had to do a short presentation and my heart dropped when I heard that. I am terrified of public speaking but it is something I want to work on and this was great practice I suppose. My intended purpose for my project is to teach or show people who don’t watch the NBA playoffs how it works. As well…

Even though it is common for players in all sports to shake hands after a playoff series, hockey is the only major sport in which every player formally shakes every opposing player's hand. The main reason behind this is a sign of respect to the opposing team for a hard fought series. It is extremely common for a playoff series to get filled with hate and cheap shot due to the intensity of play and having to see the same opponent as many as seven…

longest playoff streak of all time. The Red Wings are one of the most successful hockey teams of all time. The Red Wings have some of the best hockey players whoich are called hall of famers.

are better in the regular season and in the playoffs. Michael Jordan is a better basketball player than Kobe Bryant. Michael Jordan is one of the best regular season performers ever to play. While playing in the NBA, Jordan played 15 seasons. He…

Are the Lakers playoff contenders? After the Lakers struck out on key Free Agents like LaMarcus Aldridge, DeAndre Jordan, and Kevin Love, the Lakers managed to make up for their blunders by signing Brandon Bass and Sixth Man award winner Lou Williams as well as trade for Center Roy Hibbert from the Indiana Pacers. Let’s not forget the Lakers drafting D’Angelo Russell with the Number two pick to add with a young mix of Jordan Clarkson and Julius Randle. The Lakers managed to have a pretty decent…

lot different from the 2014 meeting. That year the Heat were the top seed in the East on their way to a fourth straight finals appearance, while the Hornets were lucky to sneak in. The Hornets were swept that year, and both teams failed to make the playoffs last year. Don’t expect the same results this time around. Both come in with the same record, but got there in different ways. The Heat had…

The kickoff to the college football season is exactly one week away and collegiate programs across the country are all trying to get to Glendale, AZ, site of the 2016 College Football Playoff National Championship.

When I first entered Harding Stadium on November 4, 2011, I could feel the electricity in the air. Friday Night Lights in the state of Ohio, one of the biggest high school football states in the country. Round 1 of the OHSAA Division III playoffs. Two crosstown rivals playing in one of the most anticipated games in recent memory. The 8-2 Indian Creek Redskins, the school I had gone to my entire life, taking on the Steubenville Big Red, the 10-0, #1 ranked team in the state. “Death Valley”…

stiffer rules consequences for people who break rules, and change the way the playoff system is structured by permitting more teams to play in the playoffs. Allowing long seasons in some sports makes the sport less appealing then the sports with shorter seasons. Playing fewer games would mean that the margin for error is small. Sport that play over one hundred games could lose over thirty games and…

again. The Raptors secured a first spot last time with 49 wins and were the only team in the division with a record over .500. Boston Celtics are among the youngest teams in the league and their roster looks pretty strong. They’re looking like a playoff team. Brooklyn Nets had the title aspirations in recent years, but they failed even to reach the conference finals. Deron Williams is gone now, and the team will try to rebuild around the center, Brook Lopez. New York Knicks’ president Phil…
