  • NBA Court Realty Dan Cervone (New York University), Luke Bornn (Simon Fraser University), and Kirk Goldsberry (University of Texas)
    NBA Court Realty Dan Cervone (New York University), Luke Bornn (Simon Fraser University), and Kirk Goldsberry (University of Texas) The Court is a Real Estate Market Throughout a basketball possession, teams fight to control valuable court space. For example, - being near the basket or in the corner 3 areas leads to high-value shots - having the ball at the top of the arc keeps many pass options open - being open and undefended anywhere on the court eases ball movement and minimizes turnovers. Using only patterns of ball movement such as passes, we are able to infer which regions of the court teams value most, and quantify the effects of controlling such regions. This leads to new spatial characterizations of team/player strategy, and value quantifications of positioning and spacing. For instance, we can compare the value of the space the ballcarrier controls with the value of the space his teammates control to better understand how different lineups manage on- and off-ball resources. Above: Map of NBA court real estate values during 2014-15 season. Just like New York City (right), property values vary Read the full paper: dramatically by neighborhood. The hoop is the Tribeca of the NBA. 30 feet away? That's more like Astoria. The Value of a Player's Court Real Estate Investment Portfolio 3. Valuing property investments based on exchanges: When players pass the ball on offense, the team exchanges property investments. The patterns of these transactions allow us to infer the value of each player's real estate investment porfolio. For instance, in the figure on the left, if a pass between players A and B is equally likely to go A → B as B → A, we'd think A's and B's investment 1.

  • Open Andrew Bryant SHC Thesis.Pdf
    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMICS REVISITING THE SUPERSTAR EXTERNALITY: LEBRON’S ‘DECISION’ AND THE EFFECT OF HOME MARKET SIZE ON EXTERNAL VALUE ANDREW DAVID BRYANT SPRING 2013 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for baccalaureate degrees in Mathematics and Economics with honors in Economics Reviewed and approved* by the following: Edward Coulson Professor of Economics Thesis Supervisor David Shapiro Professor of Economics Honors Adviser * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT The movement of superstar players in the National Basketball Association from small- market teams to big-market teams has become a prominent issue. This was evident during the recent lockout, which resulted in new league policies designed to hinder this flow of talent. The most notable example of this superstar migration was LeBron James’ move from the Cleveland Cavaliers to the Miami Heat. There has been much discussion about the impact on the two franchises directly involved in this transaction. However, the indirect impact on the other 28 teams in the league has not been discussed much. This paper attempts to examine this impact by analyzing the effect that home market size has on the superstar externality that Hausman & Leonard discovered in their 1997 paper. A road attendance model is constructed for the 2008-09 to 2011-12 seasons to compare LeBron’s “superstar effect” in Cleveland versus his effect in Miami. An increase of almost 15 percent was discovered in the LeBron superstar variable, suggesting that the move to a bigger market positively affected LeBron’s fan appeal.

    NATIONALN A T I O N A L FOUNDATION FOR AMERICAN POLICY NFAP POLICY BRIEF » J U N E 2 0 1 4 IMMIGRANT CONTRIBUTIONS IN THE NBA AND MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The 2014 NBA champion San Antonio Spurs are an example of how successful American enterprises today combine native-born and foreign-born talent to compete at the highest level. With 7 foreign-born players, the Spurs led the NBA with the most foreign-born players on their roster. Tony Parker (France), Boris Diaw (France) and Manu Ginobili (Argentina) played alongside Tim Duncan (U.S. Virgin Islands) and Kawhi Leonard (U.S.) to bring the team its 5th NBA championship since 1999. The San Antonio Spurs are part of a larger trend of globalization in the NBA. In the 2013-14 season, the National Basketball Association (NBA) set a record with 90 international players, representing 20 percent of the players on the opening-night NBA rosters, compared to 21 international players (and 5 percent of rosters) in 1992. Professional baseball started blending foreign-born players with native-born talent earlier than the NBA. On the 2014 Major League Baseball (MLB) opening-day roster there were 213 foreign-born players, representing 25 percent of the total, an increase of 2 percentage points from an NFAP analysis of MLB rosters performed in 2006. Leading foreign-born baseball players include 2013 American League MVP Miguel Cabrera, 2013 World Series MVP David Ortiz and Texas Rangers pitcher Yu Darvish. San Antonio Spurs Coach Gregg Popovich (l) with Tony Parker (c) and Manu Ginobili (r).

  • 2017-MEET the WOLVES-Devonte Allen
    MEET THE WOLVES (Week 5) This week on “Meet the Wolves,” we introduce Devonte Allen. Devonte, aka D or Big Bird, is an 18-year-old returning senior who plays as a big man in the post for the Wolves. Devonte was born in Louisiana, and moved to Arkansas until the age of nine. He has been living back in Mandeville ever since. D is the son of Alison Denson, and is the older brother to his two sisters, Kamille and Lauren. Devonte is a bruiser down on the block as he uses his size, strength, and skill to overpower his defenders for easy points at the bucket. To get to know a little more about Devonte, he was asked the following questions: What is it about basketball that made you want to play in high school? Devonte said that since he was little he had a ball in his hand, running up and down the basketball court. It wasn’t until the last week of the summer after his Jr. high-school season that playing in high-school was something he wanted to do because it wasn’t really on his mind since he did not know where he was going to attend. What made him want to play high-school ball was the opportunity to compete with older players and being around people that have the same goals as him. What is your favorite or funniest SPS basketball memory so far? D’s favorite memory was getting the steal and score that won the Wolves their first CYO Tournament championship.
