    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMICS REVISITING THE SUPERSTAR EXTERNALITY: LEBRON’S ‘DECISION’ AND THE EFFECT OF HOME MARKET SIZE ON EXTERNAL VALUE ANDREW DAVID BRYANT SPRING 2013 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for baccalaureate degrees in Mathematics and Economics with honors in Economics Reviewed and approved* by the following: Edward Coulson Professor of Economics Thesis Supervisor David Shapiro Professor of Economics Honors Adviser * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT The movement of superstar players in the National Basketball Association from small- market teams to big-market teams has become a prominent issue. This was evident during the recent lockout, which resulted in new league policies designed to hinder this flow of talent. The most notable example of this superstar migration was LeBron James’ move from the Cleveland Cavaliers to the Miami Heat. There has been much discussion about the impact on the two franchises directly involved in this transaction. However, the indirect impact on the other 28 teams in the league has not been discussed much. This paper attempts to examine this impact by analyzing the effect that home market size has on the superstar externality that Hausman & Leonard discovered in their 1997 paper. A road attendance model is constructed for the 2008-09 to 2011-12 seasons to compare LeBron’s “superstar effect” in Cleveland versus his effect in Miami. An increase of almost 15 percent was discovered in the LeBron superstar variable, suggesting that the move to a bigger market positively affected LeBron’s fan appeal.

Wade reveals his thoughts on fatherhood, detailing his personal experiences as a parent, and tracing his transformation from being the child of a single parent to now serving as one himself. In the book, Wade opens up and reveals for the first time the intimate and traumatic details of his growing up and also the prolonged battle with his ex-wife for sole custody of his two sons, touching on: · His mother’s struggles as a drug addict, and his growing up in Chicago among gangs, drug dealers and police raids (including a gut-wrenching story of young Dwyane finding a dead body in a garbage can) · How he pulled himself up from such a life, thrived through basketball and maintained his devotion to his mother · He has never talked about the prolonged battle with his ex-wife over sole custody of his two sons and why doing so was the most important thing in his life; and how the constant media attention has affected him and his boys · His advocacy for fathers taking a strong

The cultural disconnect was that drastic. France, because of its colonies, half the team is black. There was a serious disconnect between the players and the staff. When I was a rookie, we had 3 meetings: one to manage your money, one for security matters, one to handle lovers. All this was meant to protect the NBA brand, the corporate brand.

    ISSN 1750-9823 (print) International Journal of Sports Science and Engineering Vol. 05 (2011) No. 03, pp. 145-154 Simpson’s Paradox and Other Reversals in Basketball: Examples from 2011 NBA Playoffs Y. Zee Ma 1 and Andrew M. Ma 2, 1 Schlumberger, Greenwood Village, CO, USA 2 Campus Middle, Greenwood Village, CO, USA (Received July 12, 2011, accepted August 11, 2011) Abstract. Simpson’s paradox has been discussed in many scientific and social studies, including analysis of sports’ data. Yet it is not well known in basketball, except in some limited cases. One reason is that the NBA official box scores of basketball games do not list the 2-point shooting statistics. In this article, we show that by decomposing the 2-point statistics from the combined field goals, Simpson’s paradox appear quite frequently. Using this method, we have found many instances of Simpson’s paradox from the 2011 NBA playoffs, which seem to be one of the best NBA playoffs. Other reversal phenomena are also discussed to highlight excitements in these playoffs. Moreover, we propose a method of scoring normalization to more accurately combine the three scoring types in basketball. Keywords: Sports statistics, Data mining, Basketball, Simpson’s reversal, Scoring normalization. 1. Introduction Simpson’s paradox refers to the reversal of statistical relationships when two or more groups of data are combined. For this reason, it is also called Simpson’s reversal. This reversal paradox has been discussed in several sports, including baseball [1] and cricket [2]. In basketball, however, it has been discussed only for some limited cases, such as the controversy regarding the hot-hand phenomenon [3-5].
