Ray Allen

NBA Draft Profile: De’Aaron Fox, PG, Kentucky Key Stats: 16.7 PPG, 4.0 RPG, 4.6 APG Measurables: 6’3, 187 pounds Strengths: De’Aaron Fox comes into the NBA with a lot of tools that should translate well from his days in college. His biggest draw is his speed , at 6’3, Fox has elite speed can only be matched by point guards such as John Wall, Russell Westbrook and other freak athletes at the position. His end to end speed is amazing and if he can get the rebound it’s off to the races. He already shows the ability to change speeds in full court and half court situations and is rarely out of control. Offensively, he can get to the rim whenever necessary and has shown the ability to create for his teammates when the situation called for. He possesses a floater which is vital for a point guard of his body type. At the next level, I look for him to draw a lot of fouls and to constantly put pressure on the defense especially against bigger guards. Defensively is where he shines, because of his athletic gifts he is able to challenge ball handlers from 94 feet and is very capable in pick and roll defense. He plays the passing lanes extremely well as evidence of his 1.5 steals per game. I anticipate that for years to come he will be one of the premier two way stars in the league. Lastly his intangibles are a huge selling point, at Kentucky, he was considered the leader which is all the more impressive when you see a roster that included Malik Monk, Isaiah Briscoe and Edrice…

1. James Harden- Houston Rockets Since being traded to the Rockets in 2012, James Harden leads all shooting guards in points scored, usage percentage, and made free throws. He’s established himself as one of the most dangerous offensive players in the entire NBA, regardless of the position. Harden is about as close to a lock as possible to average 25 points per game next season. From his incredibly high usage percentage, to his lack of a legit number two star around him; it’s almost a lock that…

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…

Miller VS Ray Allen In an interview with Larry Brown, Head Coach of the ‘94 championship Pistons team, once described Reggie Miller as one of the best shooters he has ever seen and if he ever needed someone to hit a clutch shot, Reggie was the guy.

Against the Norm Whether we realize it or not, our environment has great influence on the way we act every single day. Society tells us who to be, when we should be, how we should be, and if we defy society, we are wrong. Today’s society is not much different from society in the 50’s. Both the 50’s and modern societies create imaginary guidelines for people to live by. Allen Ginsberg steps out of mainstream society by creating the poem “Howl.” He speaks what others are afraid to speak. In the…
