  • The Case for Kevin By
    The Case for Kevin By Http://DraftKevinDurant.Blogspot.Com 24 June 2007 Please send comments, questions, corrections and additional citations to: [email protected] Background : In 1984, a decision was made that altered the course of the Portland Trailblazers and left mental and emotional scars on their fan base that exist to this day. That decision, of course, was to draft Kentucky center Sam Bowie with the team’s #2 pick in the NBA draft, leaving Michael Jordan, who became the undisputed greatest basketball player in the history of the world, to the Chicago Bulls at #3. In a recent interview, Houston Rockets President Ray Patterson defended the Blazers’ decision to draft Bowie, stating, “Anybody who says they would have taken Jordan over Bowie is whistling in the dark. Jordan just wasn't that good.”1 “Jordan just wasn’t that good? ” Reading that quote more than twenty years later, it’s almost impossible to fathom that there existed a day in which “basketball people,” the executive who today are paid millions of dollars to judge the relative mental and athletic skills of teenagers, could not determine that the mythic Michael Jordan was, and would be, a better basketball player than the infamous Sam Bowie. Many things have changed since 1984: AAU youth basketball allows fans to watch players at younger ages, the internet disperses grainy street court video across the world, the NBA has its own television network making famous any and all of its players, mathematical algorithms are used by executives to aid in personnel judgment, and scouts, writers, journalists and bloggers are able to weigh the relative merits of players in ways never thought possible in 1984.

Jason Kidd's path from future Hall of Fame point guard to unproven coach of the Brooklyn Nets didn't begin with his 10 All-Star appearances or his 2011 title with the Mavericks. It started with a notebook. "It was something I started during my second time in Dallas," said Kidd, who played for the Mavericks from 1994-96 and 2008-12. "After a game, I would write about different situations and how different coaches handled things. Our coach at the time was Rick Carlisle, and the notebook [which later morphed into a smart phone] was about what kinds of things he did that I agreed with, disagreed with, and what worked for him and what didn't. It also detailed what our opponent's coach might be doing. So I took notes with the idea of, If I was ever in that situation how would I handle it? What would I do? "There was one game at Golden State where we were on a 20-0 run and they took a timeout. They come out and go on a 4-0 run, and our coach calls a timeout. You could feel the air come out of us; you could feel the momentum swinging toward them because of the timeout.

  • Dakich Named Director of Men's Basketball Operations
    INDIANA HOOSIERS Media Relations • J.D. Campbell, Director • phone - (812) 855-9794 • fax - (812) 855-9401 • [email protected] • iuhoosiers.com For Immediate Release June 8, 2007 DAKICH NAMED DIRECTOR OF MEN’S BASKETBALL OPERATIONS BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Indiana men’s basketball coach Kelvin Sampson announced today that long-time Hoosier Dan Dakich will return to campus to serve as Director of Operations for the program. He will replace Jerry Green, who retired earlier this spring. I’ve known Dan for a lot of years,” Sampson said. I’ve always had great respect for him. I think he’s a man of great integrity and a great basketball person who can do a lot of things to help our program.” The Indiana native began a 16-year association with the IU program in the fall of 1981 after graduating from Andrean High School in Merrillville. “My family and I are thrilled to be back at Indiana University,” Dakich said. “It has been an extremely important place in our lives. I thank Coach Sampson for giving me this tremendous opportunity and I look forward to joining his staff in our quest for National and Big 10 Championships." He played for the Hoosiers from 1982-85 and was a team captain during his junior and senior seasons as the Hoosiers finished with an 84- 39 record during his career. As a player, he helped Indiana win one Big Ten title, earn three NCAA Tournament berths and finish as the NIT runner-up his senior season. As a junior, he was named All-Tournament at the Indiana Classic and as a senior he earned similar accolades at the Hoosier Classic.

  • Eric Church Doesn't Back Down on Holdin' My Own
    ERIC CHURCH DOESN’T BACK DOWN ON HOLDIN’ MY OWN TOUR Standing behind his vow to put face-value tickets in fans’ hands, Church cancels secondary market ticket orders and releases them back to the public - Tuesday, Feb 21 at NOON. Tickets available while supplies last for Eric’s show at STAPLES Center in Los Angeles on March 31 at www.AXS.com. Nashville, Tenn. – After witnessing the three-hour, two-set marathon show at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center merely weeks ago, Rolling Stone professed, “Eric Church sets the bar.” The exchange in energy with the audience and passion that fuels the man behind the CMA’s Album of the Year is an earned one after years of putting his fans first. Whether it is the dozens in attendance at his first performance in Bethel, New York or the 15,842 in attendance for last month’s breezy night in Brooklyn, it is that unrivaled dedication to surpassing their expectations that is driving another mission: ensuring fans’ hard-earned money is spent fairly on face-value tickets at each and every stop on his 60-plus city Holdin’ My Own Tour. Throughout the Holdin’ My Own Tour, Eric and his team have systematically identified, cancelled and released tickets back to the public that were identified as scalper tickets. Already on the tour, Eric’s management team used a proprietary program to release thousands of tickets back to the public and fans in markets like Brooklyn, Philadelphia, Toronto, Vancouver and Boston. On Feb. 21 at noon local time, the team will release to the official ticketing website all tickets identified as scalper-purchased for the remaining markets back to the public.

  • Bankers Life Fieldhouse
    BANKERS LIFE FIELDHOUSE “Retro” was the name of the game when architect Ellerbe Becket designed plans in 1999 for Bankers Life Fieldhouse – the 18,000+ seat, $180 million home to the Indiana Pacers in downtown Indianapolis. A celebration of Indiana basketball tradition with a tribute to the state’s most memorable high school and collegiate fieldhouses was the inspiration behind the development, which boasts of being the “first fully themed arena in the world.” Tnemec coatings were specified for the interior and exterior structural steel at the fieldhouse, formerly known as Conseco Fieldhouse. The exterior steel was shop primed with Series 90- 97 Tneme-Zinc, a zinc-rich, aromatic urethane. Once in the field, an intermediate coat of Series 161 Tneme-Fascure, a corrosion- resistant, fast-cure epoxy was brush- and roller-applied, followed by a dark green coat of Series 73 Endura-Shield, an aliphatic acrylic polyurethane. A topcoat of Series 76 Endura-Clear, a unique aliphatic polyurethane clearcoat, was applied to complete the coating system. “Series 76 was used on the exterior steel to protect and enhance the color coat of Series 73,” said Tnemec coating consultant Jeff Parish. “With a structure that’s one hundred feet in the air, you PROJECT INFORMATION want to ensure that it won’t have to be recoated anytime in the near future. This coating system worked perfectly.” Project Location The interior structural steel was prepared in accordance with Indianapolis, Indiana SSPC-SP6/NACE No. 3 Commercial Blast Cleaning and arrived on Project Completion Date site after having been primed with Series 161.

  • 20Questions for DJ White
    20questions Interview by Jeremy Shere Photography by Ben Weller & Paul Riley for D.J. White 64 Bloom | June/July 2008 Taking His Place in Hoosier History IU men’s basketball has had its share of great big men— Kent Benson, Alan Hender- son, Jared Jeffries, and many more. Now, after his stellar senior year, we can offi cially add D.J. White to that list. Throughout a tumultuous season, White was a rock in the middle. His steady and often spectacular play an- chored the Hoosiers, leading the team to a 25-8 record and a spot in the NCAA Tournament. Averaging 17.4 points and 10.3 rebounds per game, White was voted Big Ten Player of the Year, named fi rst team All-Big Ten, voted second-team All Amer- ican, and has now emerged as a top NBA prospect. (left) One perfect moment in the IU career of D.J. White. Photo by Paul Riley (above) Photo by Ben Weller June/July 2008 | Bloom 65 Of Eric Gordon (right), White says, “We’re going to have a lifelong friend- ship.” Photo by Paul Riley But anyone who followed IU basketball WHITE: No, it’s not scary. I’m over the fact that over the past four years knows that White’s “Hey, I’m standing next to such-and-such.” But, importance went beyond statistics and awards. it’s an honor, I think, to play with those guys, At a time when many of the best college especially Kevin Garnett and Shaquille O’Neal. players leave for the pros after one or two years, Standing next to them, that’d be an honor.
