The Mastersons...updated

 

THE MASTERSONS published 12/29/18…updated 4/1/21…updated 7/29/21

Here is the all-time starting lineup for players with the last name Masterson in the Masterson Basketball Association.

Guard -- Uncle Bob Masterson (the only Hall of Fame Masterson player)
Guard -- T. Kanes Masterson
Center -- Tyler Masterson
Forward -- Codge Masterson
Forward – Tiger Masterson
The selection is based on awards won in their careers. There is no doubt the guards are the best two Masterson's at the position, and when looking at the forwards, Codge is clearly the best there. Tiger Masterson’s late-career surge with Dallas gets him into the starting Masterson lineup, replacing  Ed Masterson.
But the center position, with Tyler Masterson, remains a bit of a default. In the history of the league there has only been three Masterson centers, (see Updating section) the others being Joseph "Pete" Masterson and Leo Masterson. Tyler earned the center spot on the All-Masterson team by hitching his wagon to the Philadelphia star. He never started in an MBA game, but has 3 championship rings thanks to Phobia dominance in the earliest days of the league.

UPDATING THE MASTERSONS since last posted

A forgotten Masterson…Leo Masterson…was recently “discovered” in the 7th Tier. Leo “played” center Seasons 30 through 35, spending all but one brief trip to the MBA in the cut pile. He was with Dallas to start Season 34, but was returned to the cut pile after failing to get into a game. He’s the third Masterson center ever. And the worst. 

Dallas guard Meat Pants Masterson moved past two more Mastersons (Dave and Tyler, no less) on this MBA GVP list in Season 48, adding his second All Star Game appearance. That’s as far as he goes since he has now retired. 

 

With the retirement of Meat Pants and Goodbar “Muddy” Masterson, that means only Mortimer Masterson is left as an active player. And he sucks.
