    We analyze and rank players all the time.
    But,
    if we were to rank members based on basketball knowledge/insight or contribution to the website, I wonder how everyone would rank.

    Categories:

    1) highest/lowest basketball insight
    2) funniest/most obnoxious
    3) most uptodate/last to know on rox info
    4) most creative/copycat posters

    ???

    This will be highly offensive to some... and you will be (let's use DD vocabulary here!) "enabling" others.

    Lol. I just thought I would be able to get a better idea of who to read or not (cuz i'm lazy).

    For ex: we all know bimathug is the resident expert on cap/legal issues. and that hsf09 updates on the latest rox stuff. clutch sometime provides us with nuggets of insider info.

    I like reading A_3PO for basketball takes. Too bad he mostly stays in NBA Dish and comments on other teams.

    BimaThug deserves a shout-out for all his insight on the team's salary cap flexibility. I enjoy reading his articles.

    Wow. Can we just NOT have this discussion instead? There's too much ad hominem smack talking on the GARM these days as it is. In no conceivable way will this thread encourage meaningful debate on the Houston Rockets.

    Compared to other fan communities, ClutchFans actually sets the bar for classiness; let's try to maintain this standard and just skip this little exercise in circle-jerking and mudslinging.

    The 'reputation' feature tries to capture this. No need to have a discussion with specific names. KKolish said it best.

    bimathug is one the best. jopatmc, durvasa, a_3po, leebigez, and napalm_black are in a tier just below bimathug.

    Well there are plenty of wise cluthfans who know a lot about basketball like durvasa, A_3PO, Hayesfan, t_mac1.

    And yes, DD also belongs to this group. He is just older than most of us and he just has his own, sometimes strange opinion but he knows whet he is talking about. Sometimes, he's just not right but he is human.

    Thats because of how much of a mess GARM is now.

    You, BTW, would be one of the top basketball posters, IMO.

    Bimathug is an obvious one for the dedication he puts into the salary cap and the future of the team.

    Hayesfan is a good one.

    DD is a mixed bag. His love of mediocre/bad players is embarrassing.

    They're identical twins, separated at birth. Ohmss is an electrician in Prague, and DaDakota has an estate in southwest Austin.

    The best ever are:
    (what ever happened to) theCat?
    Deckard, alliot, Nikestrad, obviously Clutch.

    I'm sure there are others I'm not thinking of.

    Worst of all time, none come close to.... Ohmsssss. He knows absolutely nothing about basketball.
