When Debbie is on the basketball court she feels free and alive. But while she's a good player she's also an aggressive one, and rough tactics get her in trouble more than once. Off the court she's different from other girls, a foster child without "real" parents of her own. When Debbie learns she's going to be adopted, her world is turned upside down. Until, that is, she's accused of stealing from a teamate. From then on, it's an uphill battle to prove herself to her new parents and her team. Home Court Advantage shows how young players' behavior on the court and their lives off it are inextricably linked. [Fry Reading Level - 3.2

"This paper intends to construct a game-theoretic model with which to analyze the impact of home court advantage on a visiting team's offensive strategy, specifically the balance between two and three-point shots attempted. We develop the Home Court Advantage Model to assist in our analysis. The model determines the optimal offensive strategy when one takes into account parameters that reflect the changes in offensive output by a basketball team when playing on the road. In this case this is manifested in lower shooting percentages, particularly on two-point shot attempts. The model also accounts for statistical data suggesting that three-point shot percentages are not affected as dramatically by home court advantage as are two-point shot percentages. We draw several conclusions, including that as a team's two-point shot percentage decreases, the team should actually shoot more two-point shots to optimize their overall offensive efficiency. We conclude our model with a study of the home court advantage of the 2008-2009 Cleveland Cavaliers, applying the model specifically to post-season play."--Abstract.

In Scorecasting, University of Chicago behavioral economist Tobias Moskowitz teams up with veteran Sports Illustrated writer L. Jon Wertheim to overturn some of the most cherished truisms of sports, and reveal the hidden forces that shape how basketball, baseball, football, and hockey games are played, won and lost. Drawing from Moskowitz's original research, as well as studies from fellow economists such as bestselling author Richard Thaler, the authors look at: the influence home-field advantage has on the outcomes of games in all sports and why it exists; the surprising truth about the universally accepted axiom that defense wins championships; the subtle biases that umpires exhibit in calling balls and strikes in key situations; the unintended consequences of referees' tendencies in every sport to "swallow the whistle," and more. Among the insights that Scorecasting reveals: • Why Tiger Woods is prone to the same mistake in high-pressure putting situations that you and I are • Why professional teams routinely overvalue draft picks • The myth of momentum or the "hot hand" in sports, and why so many fans, coaches, and broadcasters fervently subscribe to it • Why NFL coaches rarely go for a first down on fourth-down situations--even when their reluctance to do so reduces their chances of winning. In an engaging narrative that takes us from the putting greens of Augusta to the grid iron of a small parochial high school in Arkansas, Scorecasting will forever change how you view the game, whatever your favorite sport might be.
