🕑 Added 2019-11-19 17:03:48 +0000 UTCIt's been a wild journey since I started Patreon, and as I've mentioned to you all before, a few dollars a month makes a much larger psychological impact than even seems possible.
My original plan was not to completely submerse myself in basketball content like I have today. But here we are...and so now, the question is whether to go forward with the original plan of another Top-40 profile (that you all would vote on), OR, for me to start doing historical videos on players. I would make it a series on the players with the All-Time greatest peaks.

Let me know what you think! And as always, thanks for the continued support, especially to those of you who have helped for a long time!
EDIT: To be clear, regularly scheduled programming will continue in addition to this.

As a newer fan of the NBA, I'd like video profiles of all time greats as I'm not used to seeing old school basketball on film! And you're of the best to dish out that kind of content!
I like both the write ups and the video formats, but I'd love to see something that expands upon the original 40 you did. Maybe who's moved up/down and why, any new players who have jumped into the discussion, etc.

The all-time GOAT content is great summer fodder but we're in-season. Would love to see energy focused on new player developments
This is toughhhhhhhh cause I was looking forward to another GOAT write-up one day, but I might have to just roll with the video.
I've read all the Backpicks GOAT series but would love to see a video analysis of players like Bird, Duncan, Shaq, etc.
I vote for all time great peaks video! Would be absolutely amazing to see your analysis of a legend at their best!
Seeing the peaks in full video format would be awesome but I also kind of know what you're going to say. Doing a Backpicks GOAT profile means completely new content so I went with that.
Ben just say steph curry Backpicks GOAT profile. Watch how everyone starts voting for option a.
The idea is that would be a full profile on a player who was outside the top-30 at the time of publication.
Hi Ben, dumb question, but can you explain a little more what these options are? When you say a "New Backpicks GOAT entry", I know you already did the big series on the top 40 players of all time, so what would this be? I would say that I agree, I really enjoyed the Top 5 video you did, and that in general I'm most interested in video analyses that connect historical players to current players, as opposed to focusing primarily on historical players
Give us the JI video!
I’d rather see TOP-5 things you’re surprised with on weekly basis. Such an amazing format - and quite informative, but surprisingly there is a lack of such stuff in Youtube. Analysis of particular players is also a huge thing (we still waiting for that Isaac video tho).
