Finally here is Part 2 of my Blog for the Greatest 2 Players ever for each Franchise. This week it is all the Eastern Conference Teams and remember this is only what they achieved with that particular Franchise and not how good the players were for their whole Career. Atlantic Division Boston Celtics Larry Bird 13 seasons, 24.3 ppg, 10 rpg, 6.3 apg 3 Titles (5 Finals), 2 x Finals MVP, 3 x MVP 12 x All Star (MVP 1982), 10 x All NBA Team (9 1st Teams) 3 x All Defense 2nd Team, 50/40/90 Club x 2 Bill Russell 13 seasons, 15.1 ppg, 22.5 rpg, 4.3 apg 11 Titles (12 Finals), 5 x MVP 12 x All Star...
Now that every team has played at least 41 games, it's time to go through the Awards Winners and All Star Predictions at the half way point in the Season. Most Valuable Player (MVP) 1. Giannis Antetokounmpo (Milwaukee Bucks) 30 ppg, 12.8 rpg, 5.5 apg, 1.1 spg, 1. bpg FG 55.3%, FT 61.5%, 3P 32.5 % (1.7 3PM), P.E.R 33.47 Freaky. That's all you can really say about Giannis...30 points a game in just 30 minutes. Almost 13 rebounds and 5.5 assists. If somebody could actually challenge the Bucks and push Giannis a bit than his numbers would look closer to 35 ppg and 15 rpg which is his per 36 minute numbers - the amount of time most...
The NBA season is back! After a busy summer where multiple All Stars changed teams, let's take a look at the Top 10 starting / finishing lineups for the upcoming season. Since some teams such as the LA Clippers have talented bench players (Lou Williams and Montrezl Harrell) that play crunch time minutes, I will be ranking the best 5, as in the 5 that will probably finish most games. So for the Lakers for example even though they are projected to start AD at PF with Kuzma on the bench, I would assume they would finish with a small ball lineup of Davis at the 5 and Kuz at the 4. And since Kuzma is clearly the 3rd best...
After an unexpected Playoffs and a crazy NBA Free Agency where multiple stars switched teams, who are the current Top 50 players in the NBA? As I will be focusing on the upcoming season, I will not rank rookies like Zion Williamson, Ja Morant and RJ Barrett as it is impossible to predict a ranking for them before seeing them play one game. I will also not rank Kevin Durant or John Wall as they are both expected to miss most if not all of next season both with a Ruptured Achilles, otherwise KD would be seriously considered for the Number 1 spot. However I WILL be ranking Klay Thompson who also suffered a serious Torn ACL because Klay is...
So it's that time of the year again, with free agency looming and a host of teams trying to upgrade their roster. There is added excitement since there is no less than 10 potential Max free agents on the market, but there is also a lot of stress for teams trying to keep their own free agents (mainly Golden State, Toronto, Boston and Philly). Will the 5 K's KD, Klay, Kawhi, Kyrie and Kemba stay or go? What about Philly duo Jimmy Butler and Tobias Harris, will they both stay or could they both go and leave the 76ers with nothing? Probably the most nervous team is the New York Knicks even though they don't have their own free...
