Basketball Unforgettable Legends: James "Big Game James" Worthy

James Ager Worthy (born February 27, 1961 in Gastonia, North Carolina) is a retired American college and professional basketball player. Standing 6 ft 9 in (2.05 m), he played small forward.

James Worthy was an All-American high school player at Ashbrook High School, in Gastonia, North Carolina. Worthy averaged 21.5 points and 12.5 rebounds in his senior year, for a team that lost in the state championship game. Worthy went on to attend the University of North Carolina. He quickly became a stand-out basketball player and was a key member and leading scorer (15.6 points per game) of that school's 1982 NCAA championship team. Worthy was also named to the Sporting News All-American First Team. The 1981-1982 North Carolina team also featured Sam Perkins and a freshman named Michael Jordan.

The 1982 championship game against the Georgetown Hoyas is notable for the shot that Michael Jordan hit in the final seconds to give North Carolina the lead. On Georgetown's subsequent possession, Worthy intercepted a pass from the Hoya's point guard Fred Brown to seal the Tar Heels' 63-62 victory. Worthy scored 28 points in the game, on 13-18 shooting from the field, to earn Most Outstanding Player honors.

As of 2008, Worthy works as an in-studio analyst for Laker game telecasts on KCAL television in Los Angeles, and for NBA and college basketball highlights on KCBS television, also in Los Angeles. He also has been senior vice president of RP & Associates, a marketing company in Hermosa Beach, California, since February of 2005. Worthy was married to Angela Wilder from 1984-1996 and they have two daughters, Sable and Sierra Worthy

Web Blogs Digest: The Efficiency Obsession

"... As basketball statistics get more sophisticated, and everyone from bloggers to broadcasters focus on efficiency, it’s surprising that the work of Dean Oliver doesn’t get more attention. Authors with bigger web presences, namely Hollinger and Berri, overshadow Oliver and his book, Basketball on Paper. But it talks at length about how teams are put together, whereas it feels like a lot of current statistical discussion concentrates solely on evaluating individual players’ performance*.

In particular, Oliver devotes an entire chapter to an aspect of basketball that is critical to team offensive output, but is often obscured by focusing on individual stats: the fact that NBA superstars sometimes help their teams by performing less efficiently. ..."

First paragraphs of an excellent article by Stephen A.’s Rants at this a first-class blog Blogjammin where you can read the complete article.

OPINIONS ENCOUNTERED... at the Web

About the Tempo-free Statistics

"... Many fans probably are unfamiliar with the term "tempo-free statistics" in discussing college basketball. Of the ones who have never heard of this concept, you may at least be familiar with the sister theology in baseball: sabermetrics. ..."

"... Like OPS, runs created and new stats have taken baseball by storm, basketball too is experiencing a shift. In the first of a two-part series, Kyle Lamb explains it here. ..." (Kyle Lamb - scout.com )
