This RESTFUL API returns reddit submissions JSON data including title, timestamp, submission url and a unit of measure used to determine the significance of the submission.

The database of these submissions deemed significant were generated by a process that looked at all NBA reddit submissions from within all 31 communities. The submissions were selected by a process that identified spikes in submission activity and then extracted the highest rated submission in that time frame.

The code that identified and generated these submissions is here.
