The address is a pointer rather than a piece of writing. Its job is to put the 43 pieces that carry the label “Nba” in one place and in one order, newest first, so that a reader who arrives from a search for the name is not left guessing what else is here.
The span is 2014, 2015 and 2016 and no wider. Reading down the page is therefore reading backwards through those years, ending on whatever was filed first under the name.
Read alongside Nets. A name collects by keyword and a desk collects by subject, and the desk is almost always the wider of the two.
There is no editorial layer on this page at all — no rating, no ranking, no note steering you towards one item over another. The order is chronological and that is the whole of it.
