Not comparing the draft but the hype was insane, I wasn’t saying he was more hyped than LeBron but he was the most hyped player since LeBron. I remember his first Summer League game being sold out.
All aboard the Lonzo Ball bandwagon
Ball and Fultz were regarded as a tier above everyone leading into the draft, they could have gone either 1 or 2 and no one would have shaked their heads.
All aboard the Lonzo Ball bandwagon
It’s crazy how quick people are to turn on these young dudes, everyone was on the Knox train in summer league but after his rough start, everyone had a change of heart. I like Knox, he has the tools to have a solid career.
One to watch: Kevin 'Knox' the haters
Hi, I used The Jump’s concept as a format to write the article, but none of the storylines I used were taken from that.
Decoding the NBA's latest surprises
One thing no-one can take from Melo is stealing that one MVP vote from LeBron so he wasn’t the first unanimous MVP 🙁
The not-so-complicated legacy of Carmelo Anthony
Sabonis and Harrell are killing it, but surely D Rose is the front-runner for 6th man.
Way-too-early NBA award predictions
Hi mate,
Are the players not selected in the traditional East vs West format then the starters and reserves are up for grabs in the all-star draft from there??
Predictions for the 2019 NBA All-Star Game selections
The day The King retires is a day that I am not prepared for.
Why LeBron James is possibly the greatest human alive
We nearly saw Harden and CP3 take them down, so it is possible but a hard task.
What will it take for LeBron to become a Lakers legend?
Luka hasn’t had a year in the league yet and I think he will be the 1st or 2nd best player in the draft, all these players on the list didn’t have huge seasons last year and will potentially see a big jump. I think Luka can get ROY though.
The Mavs will be a fun team to watch, but because they are in the West I can’t see them making much noise. In Dirks potential last season though I can see them looking to push towards the playoffs, it wont be an easy task at all though.
Players to look out for in the 2018-19 NBA season
LeBron is gonna do it, he is for sure capable of it.
What will it take for LeBron to become a Lakers legend?
Yeah, I think he sits in the top 15 somewhere, the headline was just a topic for discussion in order to see what other people think.
Is Kevin Durant an all-time top-ten player?
He was really good in spurts. With less pressure and an entire season under his belt he should be better.
You’ll see.

Bogut has made the NBL something to actually look forward to.
I’m keen to go to the season opener.
Andrew Bogut's first NBL game revealed as 2018-19 NBL schedule announced
Yeah J Issac! I completely forgot, he looked so good at summer league and everyone just forgot about him last year.
Let’s hope Dante lives up to the contract he just signed as well.

They get paid for it but it still would sting getting traded, especially when you’ve given so much to a city.
It’s like you’re at a job that you really like, you’re comfortable and you’re good mates with everyone there and you have built a whole bunch of achievements there. But then you get told you have to move to work at a different place, because they want someone else. Yeah you are making the same amount of money but you have to leave everyhting behind and move.
Basketball is their job and they get paid a lot but it still hurts when you get moved around.
NBA loyalty? What a joke
Really bad trade for the raptors, he is outta there next year
Reports: Kawhi Leonard traded to Raptors, DeRozan to Spurs
Mitchell is no doubt the best player on the Jazz, Gobert is a defensive beast but he couldn’t post up on Isaiah Thomas. Simmons has no jumper and that means the defense can exploit that as we saw in the Philly v Boston game. Mitchell has to be picked up beyond the perimeter and he has the capabilities to be a great passer but due to the Jazz and their lack of shot-creators, he has to create for himself an carry that load offensively
There should be no debate: Ben Simmons is the Rookie of the Year
Come on mate, Mitchell led a worse team to the 5th seed in the West and past the OK3. Simmons couldn’t even beat a baby celtics with Joel Embiid alongside him. Mitchell does things that doesn’t show up in the box score. And yeah Simmons is an aussie and I love him but Mitchell is just a better player hands down. Simmons isn’t even the best on his team and you could make the argument that Tatum is better as well.
There should be no debate: Ben Simmons is the Rookie of the Year
Not really, I think after proving that he was a main reason for the two rings then everyone has kind of layed off him. You see that in the media that people have got over the big move like they did with LeBron. Everyone counts LeBrons two rings with the heat.
Is Kevin Durant an all-time top-ten player?
The debate is that from his career s far, he is already an all-time great.
That has happened to a numerous amount of great players, for example Kobe and Lebron and based on Durant’s talent and ability makes him eligible for this conversation.
And the list I’m referring to an opinion of all-time greats
Is Kevin Durant an all-time top-ten player?
Super unpredictable 🙂
Where do the major stars go in free agency?
