In honor of the NBA's 75th Anniversary, the league announced they will be making an updated list of the 75 Greatest Players to have ever played in the NBA. So I will also make my own list and to be fair to all generations and to give a fair and true representation to the history of the game, I will firstly be selecting 10 players from each era (50s/60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, 00s and 10s) with the 50s and 60s sharing since there were so many less teams and talent in the early 50s especially. * Note that just because a player is chosen for a particular decade, I will still of course be including his whole Career and have...
With the whole NBA shockingly suspended, we have some time to rank and compare some different players and see which age bracket has the most talent. Anthony Davis, Steph Curry and Joel Embiid recently celebrated birthdays, so let's take an updated look at the best players by age (as of today March 20th, 2020). 19 Years Old Zion Williamson (Born July 6th, 2000) 23.6 pts, 6.8 reb, 2.2 ast, 0.8 stl, 0.5 blk FG 59%, FT 64.5%, 3P 46.2% (0.3 3PM) PER 24.2 One of the only players in the NBA born this century, Zion is easily the best 19 year old in the world. Averaging over 23 pts in under 30 minutes, Zion is scoring the ball at...
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...
It's that time of the year again, the NBA Finals is here with a distinctly different flavour as we open the Finals without the 2 marquee players from the last 2 Finals - Lebron James and Kevin Durant. In fact this will be the 1st time since the turn of the decade that King James will not be there after making 8 finals in a row between 2011-2018, 4 each with the Heat and Cavs. And for the first time we will be going North of the Border where basketball is exploding thanks to the exploits of a certain Kawhi Leonard, carrying his new team to uncharted territory. But this isn't the young Sixers or inexperienced Bucks, they are now facing the 2 time Defending...
