  • Warriors Stay on Track for History
    Sports FRIDAY, MARCH 25, 2016 Warriors stay on track for history OAKLAND: Stephen Curry scored 33 points as the Golden State Warriors stayed on track to make more history Wednesday night with a 114-98 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers. Klay Thompson added 32 points with seven 3-pointers, Curry drew a rare technical in the fourth, and Harrison Barnes had 11 points and six rebounds as Golden State (64-7) stayed one game ahead of the 1995-96 Bulls’ pace in their record 72-win season. The Warriors won their 51st straight regular-season home game, improving to 33-0 this season at rockin’ Oracle Arena - where the fans let the rival Clippers have it at every opportunity. DeAndre Jordan scored 19 points for the Clippers, swept by Golden State for the first time since dropping all six meetings in 1985-86. SPURS 112, HEAT 88 Kawhi Leonard matched his career high with 32 points before leaving with a bruised quadriceps as San Antonio beat Miami to remain perfect at home. San Antonio has won its first 36 home games, leaving the Spurs a game shy of matching the record set by Chicago in 1995-96. The Spurs have won 45 consecutive regular-season games at home over two seasons. Leonard’s injury could have put a damper on the team’s 60th overall vic- tory, but it did not appear serious. He left with 6:01 remaining in the third quarter complet- ing a three-point play after being fouled on a driving layup by Justise Winslow.

  • Dynamic Player Significance (DPS): a New Comprehensive Basketball Statistic
    Dynamic Player Significance (DPS): A new comprehensive basketball statistic David Hill Media Lab, Massachusetts Institute of Technology Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA [email protected] 15.071 (The Analytics Edge) Final Project May 13, 2013 Abstract Dynamic player significance is a new basketball metric designed to measure each NBA player's importance, or significance, to his franchise. This metric attempts to clearly define each player's role on the team and how it fits with the team's identity. Its key aspect is that it is influenced by the on-court identity of each franchise, which is defined as the collection of factors that contribute most to a win by a given team. These factors differ for every NBA team. Therefore, two players with completely identical stats/skillsets, but different teams, will most likely have different significance values. Alternatively, if a player is traded from one team to another, his significance will differ on the new team even if his production remains constant. Hence, dynamic player significance. Here, I have broken down the components of the model and explored three case studies that clearly show how teams’ identities deviate. Additionally, player evaluations have been explored to show tendencies in the model across multiple conditions. The proposed statistic could help inform team personnel decisions and coaching strategies, in addition to gauging player effectiveness. Motivation In the NBA, one of the most important things for any team to establish is an identity. These are the traits that define a team. Often, identity is the major factor that governs all transactions, whether the team is looking for players, hiring a coach, or filling front office positions.

Perhaps recent Olympians such as gold medalist Chloe Kim for snowboarding, four-time Olympian Julie Chu for ice hockey, or Natasha Kai-Marks for soccer. But there are many Asian American female athletes who, despite reaching a high level of success, are not well known. Many have also overcome racism and poverty to excel in their sport.
