Not sure if we've ever had one of these threads, but here goes. There are a lot of very knowledgeable basketball fans on this board, but obviously some are smarter than others. Thought I'd start a thread to determine who knows their shit the best to better judge takes and opinions.

My Top 5:
1. DPG21920
2. Chinook
3. Malik Hairston aka Harlem
4. midnightpulp
5. El Nono

Honorable Mention:
Thread (when he's serious), TD21, apalisoc_9 (provided he isn't HH), FkLA, DMC isn't bad either tbh

The best kind imo, but feel free to post your honest opinions.

To add to my original post, despite his Naruto faggotry Buddy Mignon has decent takes when he isn't being the forum jizzrag.

This thread only shows the depths Laker fans have fallen. Their franchise is so godawful and shitty, they have to desperately establish what is and isn't a dynasty in order to remember how great it was years ago. They know full well that the death of Jerry and the retirement of Fuhrer Stern has changed everything, and that everyone else in the NBA is going to hold them down and fuck them in the ass and shit down their throats for the long foreseeable future, and there isn't a goddamn fucking thing they can do but clutch their antique metal trophies and reminisce about their "dynasty".

Jamstone - this guy needs to post more , his takes are always real good.
Lkrfan- knows his shit
deuce bigalow- he never posts anymore but he also knows his stuff.

Dpg,Malik, and mid - they are just stat people, googling something doesn't make u a great basketball mind but they are good posters when the salt isn't in their eyes.

elnono- good poster ,classy poster tbh.

Robz4000 - Thank you for the kind words. I'm glad people like reading my posts and I hope to keep contributing to the basketball talk on ST.

I am a stats guy, but I do like to have fun with this board too. I try not to be biased, and even when I poke fun there is usually truth to what I say. Some people may not like it and I may be wrong from time to time, but I really don't ever just spew stuff I don't think I can back up with logic/proof even if it ends up being wrong.

Kool - grow up my man. I know it sucks realizing people don't value something you spend a lot of time on, but nothing wrong with appreciating the forum/community. Put more of an effort towards basketball talk and people will enjoy the site more.

It's not about ego or anything, but it's cool knowing people enjoy the conversation :tu

I would give Chinook the edge over me too when looking at just basketball. He has a better understanding of the nuances of the cap (I know where to look up answers to questions I have, he has it mostly committed to memory it seems). I joke around more vs Chinook who is more business though.

Those 5 are probably the Top 5 Spurfans. I'd add DAF to the HM.

Non-Spursfans: Pelicans78 and the Bulls fan that's a huge Pippen fan are probably my favorites. Thread is cool when he isn't trolling.

His Roddy, Dirk, Kawhi and David Lee takes are some of the greatest displays of unintentional comedy.

If we're talking ever and not just currently, Harlem, mono, and Findog are way up there at the top of the list for me. Polarizing as there ST personalities are and how much they trolled or melted down, when it came to pure basketball knowledge without the trolling bullshit, they brought great takes.

Stretch was one of the only two fans here who were right about them mavs in 2011, the other being Ghazi. Actually stretch has correctly predicted the results of many series and matchups, unlike his pickle breath brother who usually sucks at predictions and has to use inverse-jinx as a pretext to same himself some face. mono's statistical and front-office takes are mostly solid though.

He's a homer and they happened to win that year, nothing more. Look at his Roddy take or at him saying that before '11 Dirk was the 2nd PFGOAT. I'm sure that wasn't the only yr that homer thought the Mavs would win it all.

He's horrible at analyzing players tbh.
