    Best NBA Player Ever

    But, it wouldn't be seen as an innocuous question or just an honest answer. It would be seen as major disrespect and a lack of knowledge of the game. Just as no one inside the League will go ahead and admit that it's time for Kobe to stop playing and that it was actually time a season or two...

    Best NBA Player Ever

    Um yeah, to both Josh and downsouth, I was responding to Josh using the reasoning that "other great players all point to one person that they say is the best, then why should I even voice my vote?" There are plenty of players for whom someone else was their greatest of all time, but if they held...

    Best NBA Player Ever

    While I do believe that many people think that Jordan is the greatest, I also believe that many aren't willing to be the one that answers differently and then deal with all of the :eek: that would come along with it. They have better things to do than justify why they may not bow down to Michael...

    Big trade week!

    Rajon Rondo goes to Dallas and Corey Brewer goes to the Rockets. A friend of mine thinks the trade will hurt Rondo's fantasy numbers, but I think he'll get a nice little bump from the reliable scorers on the Mavericks. While Rajon may not want to be a scoring machine, I don't know of many...

    Best NBA Player Ever

    I don't know if I believe that Michael Jordan is the greatest player of all time, I do know that he is one of the best that I've ever seen. However, I honestly believe if Allen Iverson had the opportunity to have played on a team like the Denver Nuggets team he was on for the majority of his...

    Why don't more women care about the WNBA?

    The basic problem with women's basketball is because it looks like basketball from the 50s and early 60s, very grounded basketball. While it is fundamentally sound and in many ways, much easier to watch, it is also the equivalent of looking at kids playing ball due to the height of the rim. If...

    High Schoolers Entering the Draft

    Due to the fact that neither the NBA nor the colleges really care about these guys or their game outside of how it impacts them financially, I think these guys should be able to come out straight from high school. Like anyone going into business for themselves, you have to figure out if you are...

    Short versus long slates?

    Which do you prefer? I normally avoid short slates because though the plays should be obvious, there is still a level of nuance that is needed to make that pick that no one else will and will also produce greatly and I don't think I'm at that point just yet. I think I'd rather not cash on a...

    Who are your "must plays"?

    If Russell Westbrook, John Wall or James Harden are on the slate, they are on my roster. The only time I don't play one of them, is if I'm on a site where they are the most expensive and Stephen Curry is also on the slate at a lower price, then I may skip them on that site. That usually happens...

    Nothing like a blowout to ruin a roster!

    The word on the street was to be wary of the Cavaliers and Hawks game because it could be a blowout and maybe LeBron would sit out a good portion of the game. HOWEVER, everyone, well I, thought it would be the Hawks getting blown out, so I played him anyway, thinking that before they rested him...

    Hello!

    I'm Sugarhill and I'm getting back into basketball because I'm playing fantasy sports. :D Just in case I was missing out on some fan scoop, I've been looking for basketball forums to find the next great value play and here I am. I must say, this board's theme is really nice. I like the look!
