Give Me The Rock
this is fantasy basketball
Yahoo is reporting that Rashard Lewis is out:
Seattle forward Rashard Lewis sat out the SuperSonics’ game in Houston on Wednesday night with a sprained right ankle.
The 6-foot-10 Lewis, Seattle’s second-leading scorer, had 14 points when he turned his ankle with 3:12 left in the Sonics’ 98-97 win over Memphis on Tuesday night.
And normally, I’d care, but the Return of the Jedi league ended on an error last week, and as a result, I coudn’t care less about Rashard. (The error was the way I calculated the playoffs versus the way Sportsline did. I take responsiblity, and I take my 4th place ribbon as well. In my league, it’s like a “fun run” where everyone gets a ribbon. Congratulations all you people in my league! Good job! Well, except you, Free Darko. I’m not sure what to say to you. But you still get a ribbon.) Of course, now that he’s injured, that probably makes Ray Allen more valuable in my other league. But, I have a BYE in the first round of that league (cause I finished the “regular season” in 2nd place). So, really, Rashard’s injury is just not that important.
So, all in all, Rashard is out, just when you needed him most (well, unless you’re in a roto league, I suppose. But if you are in a roto league, this goes to show you why shouldn’t leave “extra” games for the end of the season.) Sorry, that’s the way fantasy basketball goes. If you really feel like crying about, go IM the dude with Amare Stoudemire to cheer yourself up.
