Anyone know if the guys are producing a book for the new season?
The old BP site doesn't paint a very positive outlook.
Any info would be great.
Thanks

No, Basketball Prospectus is no more in any form. With the help of Tom Haberstroh, Bradford and I have done the same content this year for ESPN Insider's NBA preview.

Thanks for the update Kevin.
That's a real shame. It was a fantastic publication.
I signed up to Insider and the content seems to be quite a bit different. I really enjoyed the BP team essays and team history boxes which seem to be no more (?)
I hope you guys can find a way to bring it back. Maybe give ESPN some of the profits and sell it as a leader to get more people to Insider!?

The team essays are just rolled out separately from the player profiles. I believe they'll start showing up next week. (The team history boxes, alas, will probably not make it online.)
SCHOENE ... not sure yet. We're still figuring out a lot of how this is going to work since what we've done is slightly different than what Hollinger did in the past.

Appreciate it!

Looks like they're releasing SCHOENE projections on Insider -- rolling out two a day, one in each conference based on projected order of finish.
Also looks like they're releasing 5-on-5 interviews for each of the teams same day. And while they leave release dates for each team (and projected finish spots) blank on SCHOENE, they list the dates for 5-on-5 interviews, which passes the sniff test for a projected order of finish.
5-ON-5 SEASON PREVIEW SCHEDULE
10/7: Heat | Spurs 10/8: Bulls | Clippers 10/9: Nets | Rockets
10/10: Pacers | Thunder 10/11: Pistons | Wolves 10/14: Hawks | Grizzlies
10/15: Knicks | Nuggets 10/16: Raptors | Mavericks 10/17: Cavs | Warriors
10/18: Wizards | Blazers 10/21: Bobcats | Pelicans 10/22: Bucks | Lakers
10/23: Celtics | Jazz 10/24: 76ers | Kings 10/25: Magic | Suns
