NCAA Championship Review

Well folks, it is all over! A new NCAA Basketball Champ is crowned and that team is Duke Unviersity. Coack K and his Blue Devils capture their 5th national championship under the leadership of Senior Guard Quinn Cook from the DC area such as myself, and excellent freshman play of Tyus Jones, Justice Winslow an potential NBA #1 pick in the 2015 draft , Jahlil Okafor. Duke went up against a Wisconsin team that was coming off from defeating an undefeated Kentucky team and with their play under National Player of the Year, Frank Kaminski and Sam Decker. However, Wisconsin struggled throughout the game at the free throw line at 60% versus Duke's team percentage of  80%.  In addition, Wisconsin's shooting overall was less than satisfactory with 41% from the field and Duke nearly made half of all of their shots with 47%.  As for the defensive side of the ball, Duke handled Wisconsin with 6 blocks and 4 steals. Wisconsin on the other hand, only 1 block and 3 steals. And you know what they say, "defense wins championships", and Duke had better defense. This championship is adds on the greatness of Coach K and his tenure at Duke, with over 1,000 wins and 5 championships.  Duke wins 68-63 and better luck next  year Wisco!  

We shall see how will be crowned champ in 2016!!

Drizzy Drake's God's Plan

What's up everyone, I know I've been on hiatus but I've been listening to some great music lately, and some from one of my favorite artists, Drake. Drake dropped two new singles a couple weeks ago, with God's Plan and Diplomatic Immunity. These are hits already and God's Plan has already gone platinum. Drake also shot the music video and released it last week . The video is set in downtown Miami, FL and Drake gives back to the community and gives money to those in need, cars, and other charitable organizations in the process. It was just under a million, but money wasn't an issue for Drake.  Check out the hit song and the wonderfully shot video! Enjoy! https://youtu.be/XUqRem0W8L8
