Portland Trail Blazers finally got the spell to snap their three-game losing skid in the expense of the visiting Washington Wizards with a 116-109 overtime victory at the Moda Center on Tuesday evening. Damian Lillard led the Trail Blazers with a double-double game-high performance of 41 big points and 11 assists to go along with 5 rebounds and 1 steal in 43:38 minutes of playing time.

The Blazers, who have lost three straight games in a row on road since March 2nd, were back at home after a six-game road trip and with the win over the Wizards, the Portland improved their record to 34-31 with 20-12 at home and 14-19 on road this season.…

also shot a cool 82 percent from the charity stripe in 2014-15. The Nets fast-paced style of offense absolutely fits his gameplay and I’m expecting big things from him this year! Bogdanovic is a brilliant player but is sometimes inconsistent. He has been working hard this off-season, especially on the defensive side of the ball. With improved defensive skills and more minutes per game, Bogdanovic is going to be a much better option at two guard this year. The best part about this hidden gem is…

Intro The San Antonio Spurs will face off against the Houston Rockets in the Western Conference semi-finals in a battle for Texas. If you told me we would get a James Harden vs. Kawhi Leonard matchup in the second round, I’d gladly accept it. Two of the top five MVP candidates will go head to head, in what should be a great and entertaining series. If the regular season is any indication, then this series will be extremely close and go down to the wire. All four of their regular season games…

It’s official, Al Horford will be a Boston Celtic. That said, it’s now Dwight Howard’s time to shine in Atlanta. The chance that the Hawks signed the three-time Defensive Player of the Year from the mid-2000’s is slim, but it is what it is. He’s here and Al Horford is gone. With one year remaining on Paul Millsap’s contract with a player option for the 2017-18 season, Howard is now -like it or not- the face of the Atlanta Hawks franchise. Not since Howard left Orlando four seasons ago has he…

There is no player who exemplifies the current Nets roster more than Brook Lopez. Since he was drafted 10th overall in the 2008 NBA draft, Lopez witnessed the Nets moving from New Jersey to Brooklyn, firing an array of head coaches and slowly turning into the league's laughing stock. None of it was his fault; throughout his eight seasons with the Nets, Lopez was often the brightest spot in an increasingly disappointing and doomed squad. As time went on, his production steadily reached all-star…

Geography is the study of the interaction between people within their environment at a place. It includes three factors: space, place, and environment. In this paper, I will first explain what those three factors entail. Then, I will relate the factors to Portland in detail.
