NBA Polls! Rockets polls! Get Your SBN NBA Results Here!

Polls! America is obsessed with polls. Not Polish people, or metal or wooden tubes that sometimes people writhe upon, but surveys, votes, the heart of the Sports Blog Nation’s Electoral Process. If SBN had one. After a pretty boring, and chalk draft, where few indefensible decisions were made, thus generated little drama, NBA trades and to some extent, free agent signings have come through for us. The ongoing soap opera* that is the NBA has lots of emotive signings, and plots that would seem utterly contrived, if they didn’t, in fact, actually happen.

Let’s start with this one, that asks the SBN reader “Do You Want Your Team To Sign LeBron James”. As you know, LeBron is still the NBA’s leading soap opera* star. LeBron has created little scandal in his 24 year NBA career, and we all know he doesn’t want any drama. LeBron instead demands, requires and utterly insists upon drama. Usually about what he’ll do next. Even at 41 LeBron can keep the soapy audience of the NBA entertained. But what are the results?

Wow. So fans like the drama, but have a clear mandate for NOT signing LeBron James. Where will he go? Maybe Philadelphia? I have no idea, but rumors have been that the Rockets are not interested in bringing James to the Bayou City.

What’s next? How about “Which of the most prominent traded or signed players will have the biggest impact on their team?”. As far as contrived plots go, the Jaylen Brown trade is right up there. As far as something predictable happening goes, Bam Adebayo punching, slapping or “striking” Tyler Herro is the least surprising.

I personally disagree with the results here. I think Giannis will have a bigger impact in Miami. Even if he doesn’t play a lot. It’s difficult to overstate how much better Giannis is than the players in Miami he’s replacing.

I’m sure the 76ers will have far better forward play than they had from Paul George (minus the last few weeks of the season) but there’s a kind car wreck of usage coming for the 76ers. too. Brown, whether he’s a good or bad player analytically speaking, is a high usage player. So to a lesser extent, is Tyrese Maxey, so is Joel Embiid…
