Titles are overrated
Re: KBlaze
Quite a lot but the final top rankings were not far off. He had the same top 2 ive come to believe in(Jordan and Russell). Most of my issues are shit that has nothing to do with basketball being factored in and huge double standards. But its about what I expected. He isnt really a basketball guy. Hes a fan there to entertain. Hes not Dr.Jack or anything. It was worth the read.

Re: KBlaze
My younger brother has the paperback edition, it features some interesting alterations. For starters, I think Dwyane Wade jumps something like 20 spots in the rankings (might be up to no. 29, already forgot). Also, reading his updated LeBron James section (I think he had James at #20 in 2010), I found Simmons and I share the same "two best guys going out of their way to team up on the playground" analogy. I wonder how he feels about the Heat situation now.
Further, finally got around to YouTubing Simmons Boston Garden cameos:

Re: KBlaze
Not gonna lie, KBlaze is a way better writer than Simmons. Also some of Simmon's opinions in that book are just silly.
