  • 2018 NBA Playoffs: T-Wolves End Playoff Drought
    2018 NBA Playoffs: T-Wolves End Playoff Drought Author : Nick Billion It may have taken all 82 regular season games, but the Minnesota Timberwolves are headed back to the NBA Playoffs for the first time since 2004, which was the longest playoff drought in the league. Not only did they clinch in the final game of the season, but it was done in the best way possible. The Wolves faced the Nuggets in a winner gets in, the loser's season ends game that had a lot of attention, and this game did not disappoint at all. There was plenty of back and forth action, big plays and even overtime! However let's take a deeper look into how the Wolves got back to this spot. This offseason was big for the Wolves as they made some big moves. First off, sending Zach LaVine and Kris Dunn to the Chicago Bulls for All-Star guard, Jimmy Butler. This seemed like a steal for the Wolves as Dunn had a rough rookie year, and LaVine was recovering from injury. This was also a reunion for Coach Tom Thibodeau and Jimmy Butler, as Thibodeau was the former coach of 1 / 3 the Chicago Bulls. This was not the end to the Wolves offseason as they also signed a former teammate of Butler's, Taj Gibson and a former All-Star guard, Jeff Teague. This new-look Wolves team would have Teague, Butler, Wiggins, Gibson, and Towns as their starting 5, not a bad group at all. Having two, young, athletic players in Towns and Wiggins, Butler and Gibson knowing Thibodeau's play style, and Teague running point, this team caught a lot of attention early into the season.

  • Random Forests and Beyond
    Senior Thesis in Mathematics Random Forests and Beyond Author: Advisor: Zachary Senator Dr. Jo Hardin Submitted to Pomona College in Partial Fulfillment of the Degree of Bachelor of Arts April 29, 2020 Abstract This paper seeks to expand on previous literature in using Random Forests to predict sports games. Random forests were first introduced by Leo Breiman in 2001. [2]I use a Random Forest model, to simulate the 2017-2018 NBA playoffs. The variables included in this model are taken from other research papers in this field. I seek two combine the most powerful predictors in other papers' models, which include bookmaker odds and win percentage, in order to create a powerful model. I use the probabilities given from the random forest and use Bernoulli trials to simulate the 2017-2018 NBA playoffs. Over- all the Random Forest did a good job of predicting winners in series which went to seven games, however it struggled with some of the series in which there was a clear favorite.

  • 2018 NBA Playoffs: Warriors Rise Up, Rout Spurs in Game 1
    2018 NBA Playoffs: Warriors Rise Up, Rout Spurs in Game 1 Author : Brian Snow The Golden State Warriors are the defending champions and they showed why on Saturday afternoon. 54 percent shooting, 27 points from Klay Thompson to pace five Warriors in double figures, and a savage and focused defense led the Champs to a 113-92 win over the San Antonio Spurs in Game 1 of the Western Conference Playoffs. The savage defense was led by none other than - JaVale McGee. Yes, the Shaqtin' legend has carved out his own legend in the Bay as he tallied 15 points, four rebounds, and two blocks in a starting role as the Warriors never trailed. Golden State took a 28-17 lead after the first quarter and increased the double-digit lead throughout. One of the most telling stats of this game happened in the second quarter as the Spurs finished the second quarter with one field goal in the last seven minutes of the period. The Warriors led 57-41 at the break. To go with Thompson's 27 and McGee's 15, Kevin Durant added 24, Draymond Green added 12 points, 11 assists and 8 rebounds, and Shaun Livingston added 11 in the Warriors attack. 1 / 2 For San Antonio, turnovers and missed shots, particularly in that dry second period doomed them from the start. Superstar Kawhi Leonard did not play and there is no ruling has been made for Game 2. Stephen Curry has been ruled out for the entire first round. 2 / 2 Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org).
