If you follow one of those teams closely you have an opportunity to be a Rep! Our rankers communicate throughout the ranking periods and try to be as knowledgeable as possible about their rankings. We want someone who would be very interested in this process.
Examples of power rankings can be found here. Before submitting an application as a comment below please read over the below rules and responsibilities of the reps.
Rules & Responsibilities:
- Rankings will take the users as long as the users feel necessary, I imagine an hour might be spent doing this every two weeks. In some cases more, in others less.
- Rank every team in order once every 2 weeks (this will be done on a spreadsheet so you should have some very basic knowledge how to operate one)
- Provide a short paragraph about your team. Keep it two a sentence per game or less. Ideally you would talk about what is happening with the team instead of how they played in a game. The write up should be no more than 400 characters
- Ranks will need to be submitted on Monday before 12 PM EST (noon)
- Missing 2 consecutive voting periods or 3 over the course of the year will remove you from voting.
Application:
-
Write a couple sentences about what you like about /r/nba and what is something you would change?
-
Where would you currently rank the your team (must have flair) in a Powerrankings today?
-
How often do you come on /r/nba?
-
How many games of your team do you watch on average per week during the season? How many other NBA games?
-
If you weren’t selected, who would you select as a representative?
This thread will be in contest mode. PM me direct for answers to any questions you may have. Comments other than applications will be removed.
I feel like r/nba is for better or worse the best place to talk about and read about the NBA. It’s a giant userbase so news and highlights are posted immediately, the game threads are full of people who mostly watched the game, it’s a good place to read up on things. The issue is so many people here either have bad opinions or are so upvote seeking with bad memes that it can be hard to find a good discussion.
Hornets at idk, 25 or 26.
During the season, most weekdays unless it’s a particularly busy day in my personal life
I try to watch 80% of Hornets games live. I have league pass though, and usually I will switch around - I don’t catch every second of every game but I probably watch around 8 games a week that I can have a somewhat informed opinion on
No clue
