I won’t say the response has been overwhelming, but then it’s only been a week, and I didn’t exactly light it up with my first mailbag… but I did get some more emails with at least one question that I could answer. So, here you go!

I’m in need of a big man for a couple of my fantasy teams (I’m guessing you know what that’s like). Should I take a risk on Chris Kaman, Brad Miller, or Zydrunas Ilgauskas? Is there someone else that I should be on the lookout for?

Yeah, I’m always looking for a someone who’s large on size (you set em up, I’ll knock em down). I’d probably go with Kaman first, then Miller, and then Ilgauskas. Kaman’s got the most UPside, if you will. Miller is a good 2nd choice, since he’s got the assists to give you at center, but I don’t even know if he’s blocked a shot this year. No, I take it back, he’s blocked 1 shot. Good work, Brad.

I think Ilgauskas has not so much jumped the shark, but more like been eaten by the shark. He can still shake his groove thang every once in a while, but even with consistent minutes, he’s been the model of inconsistency. Of course, he’s the only one who’s been playing enough games to actually be able to gather that data… so maybe he’s the best choice.

No, I’m sticking with Kaman. He’s ugly, but looks don’t count when you’re sitting there refreshing your team’s stats page on Yahoo. And evidently they don’t count when you’re trying out for the Clippers “Spirit” team either.

Okay, guys (and gals), send me some more questions! If I get enough action, I’m willing to do this more than once a week. I mean, I’ll try to come up with something interesting more than once a week anyway, but it’s much easier when people are filling my box.
