Suited & Connected 22nd Issue

Welcome to the 22nd issue of Suited & Connected©! 😊😊😊

CROWNLINE Method, founded by Todd Anthony Person, examines individual birthdays and leverages the 52 playing cards deck to illuminate human relationship chemistry.

The deck of playing cards was originally used as a calendar: there are 52 cards representing the 52 weeks in the year. There are (4) suits representing the four seasons. Hearts representing Spring, Clubs representing Summer, Diamonds representing Fall and Spades representing Winter. Each season has (13) weeks, and each suit has thirteen cards. There are (12) Face cards and there are twelve months and (12) astrological signs. If you add up all the Hearts, Clubs, Diamonds, and Spades with Ace being (1) and King being (13) you get 364. Add December 31st being the day of 1 ¼ and you now get 365 ¼ days which is an entire year.

Previously, in the 20th issue of Suited & Connected©, we focused on the high performance of five players on teams competing in the National Basketball Association (NBA) Playoffs. We examined their performance in which each player could be said to be ‘in the groove’, or ’zoning’ — phrases often used to describe a ‘place and time’ where everything is going right, coming together, propelling the player and their team - to win games, series, and advance toward the ultimate NBA League accomplishment of NBA World Champion.

What was underlined in the 20th issue of Suited & Connected© is that the CROWNLINE Method can be leveraged — examining the birthday of a player along with their 1-year or 7-year cycle chart to identify windows of opportunity and performance. In this 22nd issue of Suited & Connected©, Todd evaluates “Timing” of an additional 5 NBA players who we see performing at the highest degree of excellence through their playoff stats and in some cases via buzzer-beater’ shots that win the game for their team.

In Suited & Connected© Issue #22, some of the narratives of the additional 5 NBA players will demonstrate how the 8 of Diamonds figures in to player swag; other narratives will center on how the player’s cards are either in or traveling through the CROWNLINE or Jupiter Column, or moving to a periodical position in which their card is either sitting on, or very close to, the coveted 8 of Diamonds, which provides for extra performance and fame-producing energies.

The following five players are the focus of our 22nd issue of Suited & Connected©:

Kyrie Irving, Dallas Mavericks

Karl-Anthony Towns, Minnesota Timberwolves

Donte DiVincenzo, New York Knicks

Jamal Murray, Denver Nuggets

Naz Reid, Minnesota Timberwolves

Kyrie Irving, Dallas Mavericks, Mar. 23

When the Dallas Mavericks traded for Kyrie Irving from the Brooklyn Nets in February 2023, the goal was to find the superstar complement for Luka Doncic (the global superstar chronicled in the 20th issue of Suited & Connected©). Kyrie’s arrival to Dallas was intended to form the necessary one-two punch for the Mavericks to go deep in the playoffs and ultimately contend for a championship. After achieving a 117-116 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder on May 18 in Game 6, the Mavericks are one step closer to their title aspirations by reaching the Western Conference Finals. The Mavericks faced the Minnesota Timberwolves in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals May 22, and Kyrie Irving scored 30 points, had 5 rebounds, 4 assists; Luka Doncic had 33 points, 6 rebounds, 8 assists, 3 steals.

The one-two punchers — Irving and Doncic — outscored the Timberwolves backcourt (Anthony Edwards and Mike Conley) 63 to 25.

CROWNLINE Method Founder Todd Anthony Person assessed Kyrie Irving’s cycle charts and provided a prediction for his performance in the series against the Timberwolves.

Key Takeaways from Todd re Performance & Timing

1) Dallas Mavericks head coach Jason Kidd shares the same birthday as Kyrie Irving (Mar. 23) and this is another example of coach-player matching identical cards, thereby propelling the player to excel and over-achieve.

2) As seen in his 1-Year chart below, Kyrie is currently in his second 52-day cycle for his year, and moved to the King of Spades position starting on May 14 and ending on July 4. (The NBA Finals will conclude in mid June, so Kyrie will be in an extremely fortunate ‘position’, poised to achieve new heights of fame & success.)

The King of Spade is the highest card in the deck of 52 playing cards. It represents supreme mastery over one’s livelihood, leadership, and success in battle.

Karl-Anthony Towns, Minnesota Timberwolves, Nov. 15

Karl-Anthony Towns was the first-overall pick in the 2015 draft by the Minnesota Timberwolves. As a rookie, Towns averaged 18.3 points, 10.5 rebounds and 1.7 blocks per game. He was named the league’s Rookie of the Year for his efforts. Towns was named to the league’s 2018 All-NBA Team, averaging 21.3 points, 12.3 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.4 blocks per game while shooting 42.1 percent from the 3-point line. He also made his first All-Star team that season. In 2018-19, Towns made his second All-Star game, averaging 22.3 points and 11.9 rebounds per game. He ranks tied for first in team history in 3-pointers made.

Key Takeaways from Todd re Performance & Timing

1) At age 20, Karl-Anthony’s birth card moved and sat on the 8 of Diamonds in his 7-year cycle that ran from ages 14 to 20; he was in this cycle when he was named NBA Rookie of the Year. The 8 of Diamonds — Michael Jordan’s birth card — is considered the ‘star card’ — giving an individual opportunity to attain major fame & success.

2) During the 2023-24 season, Karl-Anthony’s astrological ruling card (7Hearts) moved and is displacing the 8 of Diamonds in the CROWNLINE. When this happens, this is part of the reason why the Minnesota Timberwolves are in their second Western Conference Finals Playoff Series in the Timberwolves franchise history, the first achieved in 2004 when Kevin Garnett was the leader of the team. Karl-Anthony’s leadership and play have been extraordinary this year.

Donte DiVincenzo, New York Knicks, Jan. 31

Although the New York Knicks lost game 7 of their Playoffs series with the Indiana Pacers, shooting guard Donte DiVincenzo ended the season on a high point — 39 to be exact (11-21 field goal shooting, 9 for15 3-point shooting, and 8 of 10 free throws.) To round out his game performance, Donte had two steals and one assist.

Key Takeaways from Todd re Performance & Timing

1) Donte was traded in the offseason from the Golden State Warriors to the New York Knicks. When Donte turned 27 (on Jan. 31), Donte’s birth card and astrological ruling card moved — and are sitting — in the CROWNLINE in his 7-year cycle from ages 21 to 27. While in the CROWNLINE, Donte had career-highs for minutes played in games; 3-point accuracy percentage; and points per game (15.5 average), including a 40-point game against the Detroit Pistons on March 25th. In the Playoffs, Donte had several games where he had 30+ points.

2) Also, on Donte’s birthday, the 9Clubs is sitting in the coveted Jupiter’s Column, which gives tremendous potential for success, and Donte’s two cards for his Mars period are 2 of Diamonds/8 of Diamonds; additionally the 8 of Diamonds is in the Jupiter Column giving Donte even more performance strength.

Jamal Murray, Denver Nuggets, Feb. 23

6’4” Denver Nugget guard Jamal Murray hit a stunning 15-foot buzzer-beater over the outstretched arm of 6’10” Anthony Davis to cap a sensational 20-point comeback and give the Denver Nuggets a 101-99 Game 2 win over the Los Angeles Lakers in the NBA Playoffs and eventually Murray and his Nuggets teammates would eliminate the Lakers from the Playoffs. But injuries would take their toll on Murray, and, eventually, as tough as Murray had proven himself to be, he and the Nuggets were upset in 7 games by the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Everything was going according to plan, too, with Jamal Murray hitting a 3-pointer to extend the lead to 58-38 early in the third quarter. The fans erupted, the building was loud and the celebration appeared to be beginning. But it didn’t rattle the Timberwolves, who methodically climbed back into the game. It was due to their swarming defense and their star player, 6’4” Anthony ‘Ant’ Edwards, finding just enough offense (16 points scored) while 6’9” Jaden McDaniels scored 23 points and Naz Reid came up big again in the fourth quarter.

Key Takeaways from Todd re Performance & Timing

1) Jamal’s astrological ruling card (8Spades) at age 27, which Jamal turned on Feb. 23, moved and ‘displaced’ the 8 of Diamonds in the 7-year cycle, age 21-27. So from Jamal’s birthday this year finishing the regular season and entering the Playoffs, Jamal would shine. He beat the Lakers on two buzzer-beating game ending baskets.

2) In game 7 against the Timberwolves, Jamal led all scorers with 35 points. Nuggets teammate Nikola Jokic in that losing cause had 34 points. What we’re seeing is Denver developing a one-two punch combination for their starting five — similar to the Mavericks accomplishment.

Naz Reid, Minnesota Timberwolves, Aug. 26

Minnesota Timberwolves center Naz Reid is the third undrafted player to win the NBA Sixth Man of the Year Award, joining John Starks and Darrell Armstrong.

Naz Reid was a fan favorite even before this season, but he's only elevated his standing among Minnesota fans by winning Sixth Man of the Year and serving as a key cog in the team's run to the Western Conference Finals. 

Reid is a great success story for the Timberwolves, having gone undrafted in 2019 but earning a roster spot and working his way into a major role on a championship contender. His story is so inspiring that some fans are now tattooing his name onto their body as an irreversible tribute to the 24-year-old.

Key Takeaways from Todd re Performance & Timing

1) Naz on his birthday back in August would have the same chart pattern as first team all-NBA shooting guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (chronicled in Suited & Connected© issue 20). That pattern is displacing or sitting on the Queen of Hearts, the last card in the Neptune Row/Column.

2) Naz’s King of Hearts would spend the first five months (156 days) “in the CROWNLINE”. When in the CROWNLINE and attempting to be successful, outcomes work out in a person’s favor.

3) Naz having the King of Spades as his Mars card (Mars representing ‘men, business, and athletic competition’), won the 6th Man of the Year Award.

The NBA Playoffs for basketball fans is a delight because of the phenomenal talent displayed by the players from the teams competing. The CROWNLINE Method assesses team chemistry as well as individual performance — according to card alignments associated with birthdays of team owners, coaches, and players. Says Todd, “The CROWNLINE Method detects when NBA players have windows of opportunities to shine. To be clear, you don’t have to be an NBA player to be going through the CROWNLINE, or traveling within one’s Life Chart to a position of fortune, like The Jupiter Column or sitting upon the 8 of Diamonds star card.”

Via the CROWNLINE Method, each of us has several cyclical windows of opportunity in our lifetime. CrownLine is committed to helping readers of this newsletter and subscribers to the soon to be available CrownLine Community identify the cycles and take strategic action(s) to obtain optimal outcomes.
