The Rebound

after a missed basket. The poet focuses the narrative onto the actions after the rebound occurred. The speaker of the poem, a player on the court, is focused on the game and the game alone, determined to keep the ball in his team’s possession and allow his team the chance to make a shot. Which in the end, he ends up taking the shot himself earning his team two points. The poem is an intense play-by-play recount of a rebound followed by a fast break. The imagery within the poem are all primarily action

Wade led the Heat with a team-high 27 points to go along with 7 assists and 4 rebounds in 33.00 minutes of game action.

Hassan Whiteside and Justise Winslow contributed 9 points each with Whiteside grabbing 11 rebounds for the Heat, which led as many as 21 in the first half of the game. Joe Johnson

This week, the Sixers and their fans finally got a chance to see center Joel Embiid play basketball for the first time in over two years. In the Sixers' first three preseason games, Embiid has been on a 12-minute restriction but has shown flashes of potential and athleticism that many analysts predicted when he first came out of Kansas. However, Sixers head coach Brett Brown has been impressed with Embiid over these last few years and believes he could be special, comparing him to a future Hall

the third ranked shooting guard in the league for me. Gordon Hayward, Jazz Coming into his sixth NBA season out of Butler University, Hayward is an ultra viable option at the shooting guard position. Just a year ago, he averaged 19.3 points, 4.9 rebounds and 4.1 assists per contest. Hayward is a rising star in the NBA at the guard position and is on a Jazz team who I firmly believe is on the rise in the Western Conference. He has a ton of help in Utah with the likes of Derrick Favors and Rudy Gobert

In 18 regular-season games Jordan averaged 22.7 points, 2.9 assists, and 3.6 rebounds, all career lows. He was voted to the All-Star squad but was unable to play because of the injury. In Game 2 against the Boston Celtics, he scored a playoff-record 63 points in Chicago's double-overtime 135-131 loss to the Celtics. He averaged an

The Cavs power forward finished with 12 points and 11 rebounds against Milwaukee, his second double-double of the season. “I know this,” Blatt said. “He got banged pretty good in the last game, and the trainer was talking to me about it.

The (3-21) Los Angeles Lakers are back in the city of angels to host the (10-15) Milwaukee Bucks. Tonight’s game, the Bucks first of a Western Conference road trip, hoping to utilize the energy and effort displayed in their 108-95 upset win over the Golden State Warriors as a catalyst for success.

When the body does not achieve REM sleep be it intentional for research or unintentional possibly due to a sleep disorder, it can lead to REM rebound according to Nairne (2014). REM rebound is a tendency which the body attempts

ball, and the factors which affect its efficiency. Prediction I predict that the higher I drop the ball from the higher it will rebound up, because it will have more gravitational potential energy the higher dropped from. As it is dropped the ball will have kinetic energy, and then when it hits the ground changes to heat and sound energy, and kinetic as it rebounds back up. The higher up the ball is dropped from the more gravitational potential, more kinetic energy on the way down and therefore
