Nice of you to go out on a limb there...

this made me LOL
anyway, I love these little write ups by Player X...good stuff...anticipating the next one 

 

[jordanfan04]

CP sonning refs though.

 

[buc em]

i'll throw in brandon roy too. it isn't tyronn lue or some bum, the dude obviously plays alot to know what players are saying and talking to the refs about calls going into halftime and such

 

[rawjs]

Corey Magette

 

[got shoes]

Tyrone Lue isnt even in the NBA anymore

i think he's an assistant with the Celts

These "Player X" articles are the least informative, news breaking things I've ever read.

We all know these things, but it makes it more interesting getting the inside story from their actual mouths.

 

[bittersweet]

Dirk anyone?

 

[i nasmatic i]

Because I want to throw out a random player too, Kurt Thomas.

 

[noreasonabledoubt]

I think its a player who has been here a while and knows Joey and all the vet refs good and has a platform to speak his mind...maybe president of the players association....

my guess is either tyreke evans, aaron brooks, o.j. mayo or kevin love

its not a younger player, id bet on that. I could see Baron saying this

 

[mister friendly]

Or basically anybody who went to Duke and gets decent run

So I'm guessing Battier,Duhon,Jones, Dunleavy,Redick,Brand or Magette. I doesnt seem like Grant Hill has time for this.

 

[ikari xd]

Has anyone tried going through past articles and using the teams and players that he calls out to eliminate which team he could be on?

I dont think that'll work, because I dont see it being a problem for someone like DFish, calling out refs for letting Kobe travel or getting calls. But who knows. It does seem like a pg/sg though.

 

[bangdak]

I doubt it would be Dfisher.

 

[datznasty]

So Player X is the same person every time? I thought it was just a source for whatever the article is about. Either way, I'm thinking a vet and somehow who possibly isn't even still playing but is still around he game. Stackhouse is a dude who never bites his tongue, he would tell you all of this without the anonimity and of course the Wade hate would have merit. Raja Bell, Tyron Lue, Devean George, TMac (?), idk could be anybody.

 

[stylishstef89]

Jason Richardson is my guess

Did this dummy say Reke Evens??

Dude been in the league since Nov...

 

[crazyrichazn]

Where can I read all the articles from this season without being an insider member?

and where the %$#+ does he mention previous seasons..........dummy.
it's obviously a guard and my opinion is it's a younger guard since he sounds like he's talking about it like he's just seeing it this season and obviously doesn't get all the calls yet

 

[knightngale]

LeBron always gets calls, obviously. Kobe gets fewer than you'd think because he travels all the time.
I stopped reading there. Dude does not even drive to the basket anymore much less travel.

No way it would be a rook.
