  • Jedi of the Jumper Could Teach Lebron Scott Ostler San Francisco Chronicle
    3/31/2021 `Awakening' leads to shooting clinics The Wayback Machine - https://web.archive.org/web/20140529055010/http://www.swish22.com:80… Close Window Jedi of the jumper could teach LeBron Scott Ostler San Francisco Chronicle Thursday, Oct. 23, 2003 The Johnny Appleseed of jump shots is on the road as we speak, spreading his simple gift to the world, even if the world isn't always ready to receive. Take LeBron James, for instance. A recent discovery has been made about James, the NBA's teen wonder who recently graduated high school. He can't shoot. On mid-range jump shots, James has the deft touch of a grizzly bear trained to repair watches with a mallet. Man, would the Johnny Appleseed of jump shots -- his name is Tom Nordland -- love to get his hands on LeBron. Explain to him why he shouldn't be cranking the ball so far back, waiting until the top of his jump to release the ball. Show him how he is greatly complicating one of nature's simplest movements. It pains Nordland to watch most NBA guys shoot. The pure jump shot is a lost art, like cave painting. It's been pushed aside by the power game, lack of good shot coaching, apathy. Baseball pitchers and hitters continually tinker with their form. Most NBA guys work on their facial hair more than they work on improving their jumper. A few NBA players have a pure stroke, Nordland says. Dirk Nowitzki, Steve Nash. Doug Christie and Mike Bibby, at times. But to watch what Chris Webber tries to pass off as a jumper, or to ponder Erick Dampier's release point, is horrifying.

  • For Release, December 16, 1998 Contact
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Julie Mason (412-496-3196) GATORADE® NATIONAL BOYS BASKETBALL PLAYER OF THE YEAR: BRANDON KNIGHT Former Miami Heat Center and Gatorade Boys Basketball Player of the Year Alonzo Mourning Surprises Standout with Elite Honor FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (March 23, 2010) – In its 25th year of honoring the nation’s best high school athletes, The Gatorade Company, in collaboration with ESPN RISE, today announced Brandon Knight of Pine Crest School (Fort Lauderdale, Fla.) as its 2009-10 Gatorade National Boys Basketball Player of the Year. Knight was surprised with the news during his second period class at Pine Crest School by former Miami Heat Center Alonzo Mourning, who earned Gatorade National Boys Basketball Player of the Year honors in 1987-88. “When I received this award in 1988, it was a really significant moment for me, so it felt great to surprise Brandon with the news and invite him into one of the most prestigious legacy programs in high school sports,” said Mourning, a Gold Medalist, seven-time NBA All-Star, and two-time NBA Defensive Player of the Year. “Gatorade has been on the sidelines fueling athletic performance for years, so to be recognized by a brand that understands the game and truly helps athletes perform is a huge honor for these kids.” Knight becomes the first-ever student athlete from the state of Florida to repeat as Gatorade National Player of the Year in any sport. He joins 2009 NBA MVP LeBron James (2002-03 & 2001-02, St. Vincent-St. Mary, Akron, Ohio) and 2007 NBA Draft Number One Overall Pick Greg Oden (2005-06 & 2004-05, Lawrence North, Indianapolis, Ind.) as the only student-athletes to win Gatorade National Boys Basketball Player of the Year honors in consecutive seasons.

Moses Malone famously made the jump from high school in 1974, and more recently Shawn Kemp experienced early success after joining the NBA in 1989 without college basketball experience. In 1995, however, Kevin Garnett was selected fifth overall in the NBA draft and sparked the modern trend of bypassing college. Part of the reason behind his selection directly from high school was the new NBA collective bargaining agreement that forced rookies to sign under a slotted pay scale for three years rather than negotiate contracts. As Groothuis, Hill, and Perri (2007) suggest, teams could now pay players beneath their marginal revenue product for their first few years in the league and recoup any costs spent for on-the-job training and development.1 Sports journalists jumped on Kevin Garnett’s success story, and standout high school players began to follow his lead after witnessing his immediate impact in the league.

  • Lebron James Was Named PARADE Magazine’S “High School Boys Basketball Player of the Year” and “Gatorade Player of the Year.”
    B L A C K H I S T O R Y M O N T H L e B r o n J a m e s LeBron Raymone James was born on December 30, 1984 in Akron, Ohio. He was the only child to his mother, Gloria James. Growing up, LeBron lived a poor life. That did not deter him from pursuing his dreams. He was a natural-born basketball player and was recognized many times for his achievements. During his junior year of high school, LeBron James was named PARADE magazine’s “High School Boys Basketball Player of the Year” and “Gatorade Player of the Year.” Throughout his professional career, James was awarded a number of honors. For example, in the 2003-2004 season, he became the first member of the Cavaliers to win the “NBA Rookie of the Year Award,” and he received this honor as a 20 year old man. He is currently signed on to the Los Angeles Lakers; however, LeBron James played for the Cleveland Cavaliers for a total of 11 seasons (ending in 2018). The Cleveland History Center is fortunate to house the LeBron James basketball shoes that he wore in the Cavaliers vs Orlando Magic game on March 18, 2016. The shoes are size 16 Nikes in the style “LeBron XIII.” The shoes were donated to the Cleveland History Center in January of 2017 by the LeBron James Family Foundation. The shoes themselves are mainly black with a white Nike swoop symbol on the sides and the top of the toes.

Humphreys∗ Candon Johnsony West Virginia University West Virginia University July 31, 2017 Abstract Economic models predict that \superstar" players generate externalities that increase at- tendance and other revenue sources beyond their individual contributions to team success. We investigate the effect of superstar players on individual game attendance at National Basketball Association games from 1981/82 through 2013/14. Regression models control for censoring due to sellouts, quality of teams, unobservable team/season heterogeneity, and expected game out- comes. The results show higher home and away attendance associated with superstar players. Michael Jordan generated the largest superstar attendance externality, generating an additional 5,021/5,631 fans at home/away games. Keywords: superstar effect, attendance demand, censored normal estimator JEL Codes: Z2,L83 Introduction A substantial literature in economics examines the presence of superstar effects in specific markets. Superstar effects refer to the presence of specific individuals or organizations earning far more than others and dominating activities. Superstar effects can exist in a number of settings, including corporate CEOs, graduate schools, researchers, classical and popular music performers, movie stars, textbook markets, and sports. The presence of superstar effects can explain observed differences in the distribution of earnings across individuals.

    MEDIA INFORMATION Media Information Cavaliers guard Collin Sexton talks to a reporter following a 115-112 overtime win in Detroit on January 9, 2020. Fred Mcleod TV Studio & Fred McLeod TV Studio & Media Workroom Media Workroom The Cavaliers organization named the combined television studio and media workroom space at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse the “Fred McLeod TV Studio & Media Workroom” on September 18, 2019 in honor of the team’s beloved 14-year play-by-play television announcer, who passed away unexpectedly on September 9, 2019. Given the indelible impact and legacy of Fred McLeod, and how he touched so many across the media and fan community, as well as the team he loved, the Fred McLeod TV Studio & Media Workroom serves as a lasting tribute to someone that was universally admired, respected and appreciated as a fellow media member and willing mentor to a countless number across the industry. Before and after every Cavaliers home game, home and visiting team media members gather in the television studio and media workroom space on the event level of Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse to hear from, and interview, the Cavaliers head coach.

    Administration of Barack Obama, 2016 Remarks Honoring the 2016 National Basketball Association Champion Cleveland Cavaliers November 10, 2016 The President. Hello, everybody! Welcome to the White House, and give it up for the World Champion Cleveland Cavaliers! That's right, I said "World Champion" and "Cleveland" in the same sentence. [Laughter] That's what we're talking about when we talk about hope and change. [Laughter] We've got a lot of big Cavs fans here in the house, including Ohio's Governor, John Kasich, and his daughters Emma and Reese. We've got some outstanding Members of Congress that are here. And obviously we want to recognize Cavs owner Dan Gilbert, who put so much of himself into trying to make sure this thing worked. One of the great general managers of the game, David Griffin. And the pride and joy of Mexico, Missouri—[laughter]— Coach Tyronn Lue. I also, before I go any further, want to give a special thanks to J.R. Smith's shirt for showing up. [Laughter] I wasn't sure if it was going to make an appearance today. I'm glad you came. You're a very nice shirt. [Laughter] Now, last season, the Cavs were the favorites in the East all along, but the road was anything but stable. And I'm not even talking about what happened on the court. There were rumors about who was getting along with who, and why somebody wasn't in a picture, and LeBron is tweeting—[laughter]—and this was all big news. But somehow Coach Lue comes in and everything starts getting a little smoother, and they hit their stride in the playoffs.
