Tim Duncan: Team-First Superstar by Pounding the Rock | NOOK Book (eBook) | Barnes & Noble® The greatest rookie seasons in NBA history share a number of qualities, starting with individual statistical dominance. However, you can't overlook the context beyond the box score; initial expectations, team success, and overall legacy all matter. While we wait for the season to resume, theScore's NBA editors have dusted off the record books to determine the top 25 rookie seasons in league history. Catch up on previous posts in the series here. Tim Duncan: Team-First Superstar was born and raised in the U. Virgin Islands, where he dreamed of following in his sister's footsteps and swimming in the Olympics. However, fate intervened in when Hurricane Hugo tore through the Caribbean, destroying the pool Duncan used for training. Transitioning to basketball at the relatively late age of 14, he developed rapidly through high school and accepted a scholarship to Wake Forest. In games for the Demon Deacons betweenDuncan averaged In his senior year, he won both the Naismith and Wooden awards, playing the entire season as the consensus No. His stellar career arguably makes Duncan the last greatest four-year college basketball superstar. Although Duncan didn't know it yet, another stroke of fate would define his career on Dec.

San Antonio stumbled to a record ina season that also Tim Duncan: Team-First Superstar general manager Gregg Popovich fire head coach Bob Hill and replace him with himself. After San Antonio won the draft lottery that spring, Popovich made it clear right away Duncan was going to be a Spur. Buford starting for us at off-guard," he said. Duncan made his NBA regular-season debut on Halloween in against the Denver Nuggets, scoring 15 points while grabbing 10 rebounds. It was Tim Duncan: Team-First Superstar first of 57 double-doubles that season, a league-leading mark. While he lacked the flash of big man contemporaries like Kevin Garnett, Duncan quickly won Tim Duncan: Team-First Superstar over with his basketball IQ. While the controlled chaos of Garnett's game would see him crush a ferocious dunk and let out a primal scream, Duncan was quietly - and lethally - working the elbows and the glass. Duncan's first NBA campaign remains one of the greatest of all time based on accolades alone. Adding Duncan alongside a healthy Robinson made the Spurs a force. San Antonio won 56 games ingood for fifth in the West. While the Tim Duncan: Team-First Superstar of pairing two traditional big men on the same team is a foreign concept today, in the days before pace-and-space it worked to near perfection. Known as the "Twin Towers," Duncan and Robinson anchored the second-best defense in the NBA while playing off each other fluidly on offense. Duncan scored 32 points in his playoff debut - a win over the Phoenix Suns. The Spurs dispatched Phoenix in the first round, but lost to the eventual Tim Duncan: Team-First Superstar champion Utah Jazz in five games in the semis. Duncan's sophomore season eclipsed his stellar rookie campaign. In the lockout shortened season, he led the Spurs to their first NBA championship, a feat that would be repeated four more times over the course of his year career.

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.

    No. 17 St. Joseph's beats No. 10 Gonzaga in Marquee MSG Match­Up All­America Nelson scores 20 as Hawk Hill takes over the Garden box score NEW YORK (AP) ­­ Jameer Nelson lived up to the billing. Jameer Nelson handled all the hype with 20 points for Saint Joseph's. The second­leading vote­getter on the AP's preseason All­ America team had 20 points, eight rebounds, 10 assists and a ton of oohs and aahs in leading No. 17 Saint Joseph's to a 73­66 victory over No. 10 Gonzaga in the Coaches vs. Cancer Classic on Friday night. The senior guard struggled with his shot in the first half but more than made up for it in the second, seeming to come up with every big play the Hawks needed in the teams' season opener. "People roll their eyes when I self­promote our kids, but he's the best in America because he leads and he believes the reason you play basketball is to make your team win," Saint Joseph's coach Phil Martelli said. Nelson's best sequence came when he drew a charge at midcourt, then took the inbounds pass and made a drive through traffic that left the crowd of 10,328 at Madison Square Garden standing and cheering. "It was great, probably the best game of this season so far," Nelson said, adding comedian to his other talents. More than 4,000 Saint Joseph's fans bought tickets and they turned the building in New York into Philadelphia's Hawk Hill for a night.
