Come on Jeff...give me a press pass and I forward you the report to post. You should be giving us press pass for every city that has a NBA team.

I will do it for free.

we need you to be in the media.
you should start a blog and try to get it popular through dumb bulls fans who would read anything praising jordan even if it says that jordan is the reason US is the best country in the world.
once your blog is popular, you will get a job offer at least from some local chicago channel.

Where do I begin... I could write a few books on all the things the media doesn't know about basketball.. But I'll just go with a single example - wasn't it the media that voted Igoudala Finals MVP?

They thought he did a great job on Lebron, even though Iggy had nothing to do with Lebron shooting 39.8% in the Finals... Lebron had been shooting like that the ENTIRE PLAYOFFS (39.9% against Chicago and 43% against Atlanta).

Moreover, it was already an existing reality that Lebron isn't capable of good efficiency at high volume.. The NBA's player-tracking data shows that Lebron is horrible at the additional midrange required of high volume shooting.

27 shot attempts per game cannot be achieved on all 3-and-D - good midrange is needed to shoot well at this volume.. Accordingly, Lebron's career 37% midrange efficiency precludes him from ever shooting well at very high volumes - this is a statistical fact.. (an example of midrange is shown in the gif above).

Nonetheless, the ignorant media gave the FMVP to Iggy, even though Lebron shot poorly in the entire 2015 playoffs (not just against the Warriors) AND his skill deficit/poor efficiency at midrange prevents him from shooting well at high volumes to begin with (the stats already showed this, so we should've known BEFOREHAND that Lebron was going to shoot poorly at high volume, making Iggy's defensive performance not exceptional at all).

You have to wait for a while

You have no idea about the NBA, and Yahoo has no plans for a full time Muslim-Bashing reporter yet.
