    Default Anyone else feel like you know more basketball than your real life friends?

    It's ridiculous. I'm in a fantasy league with 6 other friends for money and I'm about to win the league for the 2nd year in a row.

    It's just too easy, anyone else feel the same way?

    I feel this all the time and not just with friends but with online members too. Not all friends are basketball fans but to smarter than most and more knowledgeable than most on a basketball forum says a lot.

    I've been watching for a long time now so I know what I am talking about.

    Fantasy has nothing to do with knowing about basketball though.

    It has to do with effort (setting team up daily, making add/drops to win a week, and screwing people in trades).

    Correct. Wasn't directed at you guru.

    I see why you have trouble on the forums 9Empire. Can't even understand the flow of a conversation.

    I remember when I was in class one day with a couple of the basketball players on our highschool team, and we got into an argument on whether Magic and Bird played eachother... they just dismissed my opinion because I didn't play basketball

    Yes I'm just one of those fans that acts dumb so I can give off the impression that I have a life.
