The Lore:

Born deep under the sea, half manta ray, half miracle baby, a child of atlantean prophesy was born. Named Monta Ellis this boy was to be sent to the dry world to partake in their most kingly of games. He glides across the court with an almost balletic grace, cutting through defenders like a shark through a school of prey. Unfortunately his Manta ray breeding seems to have left him frail and as a result he finds defense dangerous work so unlike wild moped adventures he mostly avoids it. Will this whirlwind of lay ups, this scoring demon of the seas ever rise to the heights of basketball glory, that remains a mystery.

The Lore:
 There once lived a great king. He came from humble beginnings to achieve greatness. A slayer wolfs and magicians. A master of tasty dunks. Loved by his people and respected by his peers.

He truly was a great king but over the years something changed inside him. His lust for jewels and power poisoned his mind. He abandoned the people he once loved and sought out 2 other evil lords to try to complete his conquest for power and riches.

Fortunately for the kingdom without anyone to back them up it looks like the evil lords treachery was all in vain. Though maybe its to early to tell maybe the dark lords shall rise and take the all coveted ring.

Though if Bosh keeps playing like he's allergic to rebounds and Wade and Lebron cant learn to share the ball the heat is going to sizzle out like a match left in the snow.

But remember this will not be the last you see of the great king. Still as powerful as ever he will not be forgotten. To have heros we need villains so love him or hate him King James is here to stay.

EDITORS NOTE: Well folks it seems like the dark prophecy is coming true the moons have aligned and its time to break those virgins out for a sacrifice. The Heat are killing it and the dark lords have risen. We can only wait and see just how far there evil grasp can reach.

The story begins

The NBA is a fantastical place where wizards,dinosaurs and what ever form of mystical and terrible creature Dennis Rodman was come together under one roof to compete and to win. Some would even go as far as to say its where amazing happens.

The only way us here at Hoop Lore could think of paying tribute to this wonderful sport was to bring you the magnificent and less then truthful tales of the great warriors of the NBA.

Sure we may have taken the term fantasy Basketball way to literally. But we hope you enjoy it and stay with us on this epic journey through the world of hoops.
