I got caught slipping on opening night, but I'm still doing this.

The "rules," for those whom may have forgotten:

  1. Anybody who is on the "pre-approved" list of Top Tier Big Men (as determined by @Mr. S£im Citrus) will have their nightly statlines recorded, regardless of whether they are good or bad.
  2. Any big man not on the pre-approved list of Top Tier Big Men is eligible to be included in the Honorable Mention portion of the nightly listing. Inclusion into the Honorable Mention portion requires at least one of the following:
    • 20/10 performance (doesn't matter which stat is the 20, and which one is the 10)
    • Triple-double
    • Double-double in a win versus a Top 5 team
  3. 5 or more appearances in the Honorable Mention portion of the listing in the same month will qualify a player for a probationary inclusion to the Top Tier Big Men nightly listing, until/unless otherwise determined by @Mr. S£im Citrus (criteria for full inclusion to be determined at a later date).
    • Any big man who receives two or more BMOtN awards in the same month as an Honorable Mention will also be subject to probationary inclusion to the Top Tier Big Men nightly listing.
    • Any player included in the listing who posts five or more "double-singles" in a month will be subject to removal from the listing.
  4. This is a list for Big Men, not Tall Men. Tall, talented players who don't play regular minutes at PF or C, or whom don't self-identify as Big Men (e.g., Kevin Durant, Giannis Antetokuonmpo) will not be included in this listing.
  5. Nightly listings will, TTBOMA, be posted between 23:00-23:30 ET, with any late game statlines being posted the following morning.
The following is the "pre-approved" list of Top Tier Big Men:
  • Joel Embiid (PHI)
  • Nikola Vucevic (ORL)
  • Andre Drummond (DET)
  • Anthony Davis (LAL)
  • Karl-Anthony Towns (MIN)
  • Rudy Gobert (UTA)
  • John Collins (ATL)
  • Nikola Jokic (DEN)

I don't see myself staying up through the next hour, so I'll update with the late games tomorrow. This is looking like the Giant's to lose, though.

10/24 Big Man update:

John Collins: 18/10/1/2/1 versus Pistons
Andre Drummond: 21/12/2/4/1 versus Hawks

No award, unless needed for a tie-breaker. Not giving it to Andre, when his team loses by double-digits at home, and Collins' line doesn't grab me. Maybe someone in the late game will knock my socks off, but I'm not betting on it.

Reluctantly giving to Big Sawfty, due to quality of opposition.

The Giant's line was more impressive, but they lost, so I'm giving it to Baynes.

Honorable Mention:
Kevin Love: 22/17/4/1/0 [6 to] versus Pacers

Davis did not have the most impressive line, but he's the only one who didn't lose, so he gets it... This is the second time, out of three games, that Drummond has gone for 20+/20+ in a loss. What's going on in the D?
