there should be an objective whining rank. melo moving up to the top on that one

What about me? I suppose according to most of you my whine factor must be pretty high!

It might be up there. We all probably complain at times

melo went full Karen with Tatums ranking though. Think he just wanted the site so he could argue with them

All I know is this Hoffa pass has me extra motivated. I'm not gonna whine anymore. But I'm turning over every rock imaginable to ensure my team busts his ass. I can get creative af. People underestimating me.

I mean I’m a championship team and my FA ranking is a bit low. Of course I’m going to question it. Sue me

You would do the same if you were in my position. And I got my answer. The ranking is opinionated and flawed. So whatever. I’ll go back to my championship parade while y’all bid against each other to death

NewEra says hi


And I'll try one last time before I bow out as well on this issue...every list put together is subjective. There is no top 10, top 50 or top 100 list out there that is not subjective. Obviously the star player ranking comes from some list somewhere so of course there are peoples opinions that went into it. I kind of figured most people who have been in the game for going on five years realized this and didn't need it told to them. It's flawed subjectively?

My point has always been that as far as BaF goes, it is objective. No one from BaF influences the list. Is it flawed? Maybe in your eyes if you want to take a small sample. Is Tatum a top 12 player? Subjectively...maybe, maybe not. I guess we could use the sim rankings and allow me to break ties since there were 14 players who ended the season rated as a 5-star player. Of course that would mean that Philly would move up ahead of San Antonio since John Collins ended the season higher than Steph did. I would think that would be more flawed then the subjective list I used which had Butler over Tatum.

My last word on it...like I said before, if you find me an objective list that everyone agrees too, I'd be happy to use it moving forward. But for this...I'm tired of the passive aggressiveness...

melo bout to hit us with the...

Can you name 10 NBA BAF players who are better than Jayson Tatum?

Because if not, it's looking like MELO wants himself a Top 10 NBA player on his Cavs:

bish is now on the clock...
1.) _____
2.) _____
3.) _____
4.) _____
5.) _____
6.) _____
7.) _____
8.) _____
9.) _____
10.) ____

2015 BAF Cavs without Tatum = 20th in 3PT% (.346%).

2016 BAF Cavs without Tatum= 21st in 3PT% (.348%).

2030 BAF Cavs without Tatum = 25th in 3PT% (.352%).

2050 BAF Cavs without Tatum = 28th in 3PT% (.340%).

2240 BAF Cavs without Tatum = 27th in 3PT% (.337%).

You're barking up the wrong EFFICIENCY tree.

In fact.. I think BISH has been eating too much gabbagool.. 15th rank??



THAT'S WHEN YOU KNOW THE TATUM CLUELESS HATE IS REAL WHEN YOU'VE GOT BAF FANS LIKE THIS GUY COMPARING TATUM TO "Jimmy Butler" IN ORDER TO PROVE SOME FAKE POINT .

Watch on YouTube

IN FACT, I KNOW DEUCE TATUM WILL BE BETTER THAN ANY OF YOUR STARS. I HAVE ALREADY PLANNED ON DRAFTING HIM 19 YEARS FROM NOW AND I BET EVEN THEN BISH WILL HAVE HIM RANKED 3rd TIER!!

damn i need a life, that took 10 minutes but i had to be a method actor for a second

[3toheadmelo]

You tried too hard with that one

[SOUL]

You tried too hard with that one

Tatum needs to try harder to get a better rank tho

[3toheadmelo]

I never knew Orlando fans read every thread on the Knicks forum. Not shocked though, cause we are talking about Orlando fans who have nothing to look forward to

You should try harder to get your team out of treadmill territory

[Capn'O]

Phew, I was worried we would never see another post of that kind on this board.

I was around this forum before you even thought about registering, young one.. keep crying about Tatum though

I went from a treadmill team to one game away from the Blazers in the WCF.. and I split the series with him and you

I am not one of these lil east teams scared of you, trust me

Kiss the ring. You a lil peasant in my eyes. Ain’t nobody worried about you

I never said I don't respect it, do it again clearly you're a bit worried about your chances this year when you shouldn't be.. all I know is a lot of us out west are trying to knock your crown off so I hope it's screwed on tight enough, but from what I noticed this offseason it's very tight..

[Buzzard]

Tatum is a top 20 player but I think he is to weak a defender to be put in Kawhi's range. Some Boston fans want to call him a top 5; but most of them know better and admit it.

The only thing I’m worried about is if I can beat my record of 67-15. Hopefully the west gets stronger after free agency cause right now I’m yawning at you guys
