You might think a perennial crisis is just a fancy word for an ongoing crisis. Fear not — though the two concepts can be related, they are not quite the same. A perennial crisis is an ongoing or recurrent crisis that never seems to be resolved. It can be a financial, political, or any other type of crisis that persists over time.

A majority of UNC’s scoring comes from their starters. Four of their starters average at least 13.4 points per game, with Armando Bacot’s 16.2 pacing the field ahead of Caleb Love (15.7), Brady Manek (15.2) and R.J. Davis (13.4). While those four players draw a lot of attention, UNC’s fifth starter is just as important to the team’s success. Leaky Black averages under five points per game, but the senior has emerged as a key defender and glue guy for the Tar Heels in his 30-minutes-per-game role....

Benefits of Scleral Contact Lenses Scleral contact lenses are usually more comfortable to wear than smaller RGP contact lenses.

The conjunctiva is much less sensitive than the cornea, producing much less awareness and discomfort....

Like, really close. Heading into Golden State’s matchup with Indiana on Monday, the Warriors star sits six 3-pointers away from tying Ray Allen on the leaderboard and seven from passing him. It’s no longer a matter of if, but when Curry becomes the all-time leader, and it’ll only strengthen his case as the greatest shooter in NBA history when he pushes Allen down to No. 2. Ahead of Curry adding another record to his resume, Lakers star LeBron James, who has had his fair share of battles against the two-time MVP over the years, spoke about his greatness, saying he’s been “phenomenal” his entire career and calling him a “once-in-a-lifetime” talent....

He’s been doing this for so long, it just feels like it’s a given at this point. Of course, James reminded his teammates in his postgame interview that this kind of success is never given — it’s earned....

Yes, James surpassed Jordan as the top scorer in NBA postseason history.

When Derrick Rose suffered yet another injury, his season cut down by a torn meniscus in his right knee, the team was turned over to Luol Deng. Then Deng was traded after posting one of the more-productive stretches of his career, numbers born out of desperation. The Bulls had little to fall back on, and their position as a contender appeared done. But Joakim Noah and Tom Thibodeau, armed with a team full of grind-it-out complimentary players, just wouldn't allow that to happen....

Is the crisis over? Perhaps. At least the Fed seems to have helped to put a floor under the euro as economists scrap their predictions that it could sink to 80. But that’s a far cry from turning into a euro cheerleader.
