It appears that Ron Artest has agreed to sign a three-year deal with the Lakers
Fantasy Implications: Apparently, Artest when all single white female on Kobe last year, expressing his desire to play with Black Mamba. If the man wanted it that bad, I’d expect Artest to be a good solider in the Kobe army, accepting [...]

Fantasy Hall of Fame Vote: Class of 2008

Posted by Patrick on June 30th, 2009 filed in Author: Patrick, Fantasy Basketball, Fantasy Hall of Fame

Thanks to some good advice, we are switching up the format of the fantasy HOF vote to more closely match that of the real HOF. For comparison purposes, it makes more sense to vote on a single class all at once (and makes my life easier as well). No worries though, the two individual votes [...]

Timing, as they say, is everything. Going into the start of the 2008-09 season, we here at GMTR were pretty damn low on Yao Ming. He was a 7’6’’ monster with a history of foot problems: the man had averaged a mere 53 games a season over the previous three [...]

Posted by Patrick on June 26th, 2009 filed in Author: Patrick, Fantasy Basketball, NBA Basketball, NBA Draft

I almost feel like a heretic for saying this, but I’m actually not a big fan of the NBA draft. At least the television watching part of it where guys I don’t really know get drafted at a glacial once-every-fifteen minutes pace for 4 hours so that I can catch a funny looking outfit or [...]

Posted by Patrick on June 19th, 2009 filed in Author: Patrick, Fantasy Hall of Fame

With little else to talk about during these short summer months (unless you’re a big Jason Kapono fan) what better time than to introduce something I’ve wanted to do for a long time: The Fantasy Basketball Hall of Fame. What does that mean? It’ll hopefully end up as a group of the best fantasy players [...]

The Best of the Best and Things to Come

Posted by Patrick on June 18th, 2009 filed in Author: Patrick, Fantasy Basketball

I feel like I’m missing something… wait, are the conference finals over already?
As Nels mentioned, we’ve taken a short and well-needed break at the GMTR laboratories. I was officially on vacation last week – where it proceeded to rain for five days straight – and Nels is on vacation this week (where he is [...]
