You see, it's the slow knife... the knife that takes its time, the knife that waits years without forgetting, then slips quietly between the bones... that's the knife that cuts deepest. – Dark Knight Rises

Remember when we played fantasy baseball (now starting up again soon), and it literally took the best player on my team dying for you all to defeat me (Literally all, I vanquished every one of you). You may have forgotten, since it has been a long time. I on the other hand, have waited this year without forgetting, planning, plotting my vengeance. While you fantasy mortals sleep, I lay in bed and wait.

I waited patiently for this fantasy season. What a season of fantasy basketball it has been. Sean was the overwhelming favorite throughout the year who had his team decimated by trades and injuries, which left the throne wide open for any suitor to come and take it. And who else would you expect to thrive in this chaos but myself? To you all, chaos is a pit, but to me, it is a ladder. A ladder I have climbed and climbed and climbed to get to where I am today. Your soon to be fantasy basketball champion.

A lesser man would talk smack to Creighton, making fun of his hot bod, small mouth and his ginger hair. I however, am a gentlemen, and would never mention those things. James Harden and Isaiah Thomas have been absolutely amazing for him, but my team has something not measured in fantasy points… GUTS.

This league was over the second I saw a tweet that revealed Kevin Love was returning two weeks earlier than expected. Now, with Lebron, Drummond, Love, Carmelo and the recent 70 point scorer Devin Booker at the helm, my team is near unbeatable. I look forward to what should be an epic matchup with Creighton. I know this analysis isn’t numbers heavy, but I predict a thorough beatdown reminiscent of the beatdown his anus took every night when he roomed with Phil Barnes (Love you Creighton).


Guys, it has been a great season. And we have two more weeks to enjoy. So sit back and watch as two fantasy giants vie for the crown. Both teams deserve it and have saved their best ball for the best time, but unfortunately, one run has to end. I predict a close victory for the Pippens Aint Easys and a fantasy basketball championship to accompany my prior football championship.
