I believe it is Steve Burtt, Sr and his son Steve, Jr. Both played at Iona.

They were the 8 seed. Nova upset Georgetown in the title game.

There are several different types of passes, to be used in different situations: the chest pass is used primarily in the open court and on the perimeter; the overhead pass is used on the perimeter and on the outlet pass; the bounce pass is a pass that is used anytime under defensive pressure; and the baseball pass is used when you need a long pass.

It usually varies from about 1-4 million a year!

I'd go with J.J. Redick

NBA stands for National Basketball Association

The Montreal Canadiens with 24 (23 during the NHL era, and 1 win predates the NHL) are the winningest team in the NHL. The second most have been won by the Toronto Maple Leafs with 13, although they have not won since 1967.....

Prior to 1981-82 it was only 2 points for a win so was not achievable as even if a club had somehow won all 46 games they would only amass 92 points.

The division names have changed but we will answer by their old names so 1 would be the Premier League now, 2 would be the Championship, 3 would be League One and 4 would be League Two.

1984: York 101 (4th)

1986: Swindon 102 (4th)

1999: Sunderland 105 (2nd)

1999: Fulham 101 (3rd)

2001: Fulham 101 (2nd)

2002: Plymouth 102 (4th)

2003: Wigan 100 (3rd)

2006: Reading 106 (2nd)

2012: Charlton 101 (3rd)

The Premiership record is 95, by Chelsea in 2005. This was achieved playing only 38 games. All of the records above were achieved in a season of 46 games.

Essex High School in Tappahanock Virginia Chris Brown got Pulled out for Public School When he was 16 Years Old 2005

Basketball was invented by James Naismith in Springfield Mass. in 1891. He originated basketball as a gymnasium sport. The game was originally played with a soccer ball and two peach bushel baskets, from which the game took its name. He was asked to devise a new indoor winter sport. His version of basketball called for nine players (later reduced to five) per team and the use of peach baskets (later netted hoops) as goals.

Ray Allen holds the record for most 3 point shots made in a season. He made 269 3 pointers during the 2005-06 NBA season, while with the Seattle Supersonics. Doing so he passed the previous record of 267, achieved by Dennis Scott of the Orlando Magic, exactly a decade earlier, in the 1995-96 NBA season.

it doesnt matter u just have to try out and c if u make it or get cut

Step 1: Get a detailed value of the franchise. For example, the current estimated value of the Los Angeles Lakers is around $550million.

Step2: Gather enough investors to buy a major share of the team, usually in a piecemeal (so, buying the shares/team piece by piece).

Step 3: Submit an offer to the current ownership, generally done through the NBA League Office (specifically, the Office of the Commissioner)

Step 4: Make the offer, put up the cash, purchase the team

Step 5: Run the team, make sure everyone is properly paid, continue increasing the value of the team once owned.

Step 6: Sell the team when you are ready to sell it or it can't stay solvent.

No, James Naismith passed away November 28, 1939. He passed away from a heart attack.

the shortest person to play basketball in the Olympic games was Tynua Samonmah from Japan

It can vary greatly. It goes from $10,000 to $100,000. Depends on how you want it made.

YES, unless.... The count on a player in the restricted area is suspended when that player begins to try for a goal (shot).
