Developing the D-League

Title: Developing the D-League
Date: March 27, 2008
Original Source: Hoops Addict
Synopsis: This Hoops Addict article took a look at the NBA’s Developmental League, and how it could grow from a business and basketball standpoint to continue to serve its purpose as a viable feeder system for the NBA. Like all of my HA articles, the links have been lost due to a server transfer, but the text was backed up.

Southeast Division Recap

Title: Southeast Division Recap
Date: March 26, 2008
Original Source: About.com
Synopsis: After branching out from The ODC to Hoops Addict, I also got hooked up doing weekly Southeast Division reviews for About.com. Why? Because the site is USA Today affiliated, and because I had a connection with the editor and he needed someone on short notice. It only lasted a few weeks of the season and into the summer, and the links are now lost (About.com doesn’t keep archives of previous seasons’ weekly division reviews, because apparently nobody cares what the Wizards’ outlook was in late March of 2008, go figure), but luckily I have backups and can recover the text.

Interview with Carl English

Title: Interview with Carl English
Date: March 25, 2008
Original Source: The On Deck Circle
Synopsis: Believe it or not, I managed to get multiple exclusive interviews with Team Canada’s Carl English. I suppose this doesn’t sound like much, but since he was in Spain at the time, he’s my favorite player to never play in the NBA (I am Newfie, as well, after all), and I scored an interview a few months into my “writing career,” it was a big deal for me. The interview itself isn’t bad either.

Title: Writer’s League Power Rankings
Date: March 18, 2008
Original Source: The On Deck Circle
Synopsis: There’s nothing people like more than reading about other people’s fantasy teams, am I right? I went on to win the league, if you’re wondering, and a handful of the members stuck around into 2009 for the first year of what has become an awesome auction keeper league.
