  • Difference-Based Analysis of the Impact of Observed Game Parameters on the Final Score at the FIBA Eurobasket Women 2019
    Original Article Difference-based analysis of the impact of observed game parameters on the final score at the FIBA Eurobasket Women 2019 SLOBODAN SIMOVIĆ1 , JASMIN KOMIĆ2, BOJAN GUZINA1, ZORAN PAJIĆ3, TAMARA KARALIĆ1, GORAN PAŠIĆ1 1Faculty of Physical Education and Sport, University of Banja Luka, Bosnia and Herzegovina 2Faculty of Economy, University of Banja Luka, Bosnia and Herzegovina 3Faculty of Physical Education and Sport, University of Belgrade, Serbia ABSTRACT Evaluation in women's basketball is keeping up with developments in evaluation in men’s basketball, and although the number of studies in women's basketball has seen a positive trend in the past decade, it is still at a low level. This paper observed 38 games and sixteen variables of standard efficiency during the FIBA EuroBasket Women 2019. Two regression models were obtained, a set of relative percentage and relative rating variables, which are used in the NBA league, where the dependent variable was the number of points scored. The obtained results show that in the first model, the difference between winning and losing teams was made by three variables: true shooting percentage, turnover percentage of inefficiency and efficiency percentage of defensive rebounds, which explain 97.3%, while for the second model, the distinguishing variables was offensive efficiency, explaining for 96.1% of the observed phenomenon. There is a continuity of the obtained results with the previous championship, played in 2017. Of all the technical elements of basketball, it is still the shots made, assists and defensive rebounds that have the most significant impact on the final score in European women’s basketball.

DEVELOPING THE MULTIDIMENSIONAL POSITION 4, ANDERS SOMMER 2 Introduction The power forward position seems to be in a very interesting evolution these years. Different types of players fill the position giving the lineups completely different looks and characteristics. And it’s probably the position with the most adjusted definitions; ‘point-forward’, ‘stretch-4’, ‘combo-forward’, ‘shooting-forward’ and as defined by Drvaric (2017) the most modern type of power forward; ‘the multidimensional position 4’. Currently, two long ivory-white players from Northern Europe, just in their early twenties, are taking the basketball world by storm. Kristaps Porzingis and Lauri Markkanen are bringing a combination of length and shooting stroke to the NBA that only Kevin Durant can compare to. But they are more than just tall skinny shooters. They are taking the skill set of +210cm players to a whole new level and redefine the common perception of a power forward.

    Proceedings of the 2017 International Conference “ECONOMIC SCIENCE FOR RURAL DEVELOPMENT” No 45 Jelgava, LLU ESAF, 27-28 April 2017, pp. 322-329 SPORTS ROLE IN ECONOMICS Ieva Opolska 1, Mg.oec.; Liga Proskina 1, Dr.oec. 1Faculty of Economics and Social Development, Latvia University of Agriculture Abstract. The research analyses the sports and mega-sports events impact on the economics. The authors gathered studies and literature about the major sports markets, mega sports events, the economics of sports and the case study for the EuroBasket 2015 Latvia. Mostly, sport is viewed from the results, but it is very versatile. Sports-related sectors are health, education, entertainment, tourism, economics and others. This time, the authors’ aim was to analyse recent researches on the sport and mega-events impact on the economics. To achieve the aim, the following specific tasks were set: 1 to give insight into the situation in the field of sport and mega sports events, placing a particular focus on its impact on region's economics; 2) to analyse the papers of sports impact on economics, biggest sports markets and mega sports events; 3) to assess the EuroBasket 2015 impact on the economy of Latvia. Results showed that Sport and mega sports events can be beneficial to the region's economy, but it is necessary to make in- depth research and estimates to calculate it. The conclusions of the paper are: North America is ahead of the other countries and it makes it as the world's largest sports market and it suggests that the role of sport will continue to grow and that sport not only contributes to better health, people’s socializing and belonging to the particular team, but it will also make a significant contribution to the regional or national economics; The EuroBasket 2015 case showed that it is in many ways Beneficial event, especially the impact on the economy of Riga and the country's image building, this suggest that the country needs to encourage large, international tournaments organizing.
