Give Me The Rock
this is fantasy basketball
I’m a homer. Here’s proof:
That Big Green Line is the Chicago Basketball Bulls. In my four leagues this season, I drafted 7 Bulls, which is 3 more than I took from any other team. What can you glean from this? Well, I’ll let you know at the end of the season when I see how my bullish teams do.
Other info you can get includes:
1. Teams with no players drafted by me: Kings, Cleveland, Milwaukee, San Antonio, Denver, Minnesota.
And to help you understand that, here’s my explanation:
• Don’t draft Kings. Plain and simple. I have no faith in anyone on the Kings. I am not willing to risk my team by drafting any of them.
• Cleveland has one good player. If I had the chance to take him, I would have. So really, that’s just random luck. I wouldn’t take anyone else on the team, though.
• Milwaukee: I’m sure I thought about drafting Michael Redd. I don’t think I thought about drafting anyone else on the Bucks. I picked up Redd for my NBA 2K8 fantasy team.
• San Antone: Tim Duncan is good. He’s worth drafting if you can take the hit in FT%, and he’s the best player on the board. That was never the case for me in any of my leagues (this is more of a small sample size issue). I’m not convinced that Tony Parker and Manu Ginobli can be had in rounds where I feel they are appropriately valued.
• Minny: I could swear I drafted Al Jefferson in one of my leagues, but maybe it was just in some other mock draft or something. Weird. Other than Big Al, though, I just feel there’s too many question marks floating around the Wolves roster.
2. Highly drafted teams besides the Bulls:
Golden State, Seattle, Toronto
• Golden State: These were mostly late round picks for guys like Monta Ellis (who I’m not completely sold on, but took him in my first two drafts), Matt Barnes, and Marco Belinelli.
• Seattle: For some reason, I took Kevin Durant, Nick Collison, and Delonte West all on one team. Maybe not such a good idea. Picked up Jeff Green late in another league.
• Toronto: Took Jorge Garbajosa twice and Andrea Bargnani twice. I almost had Bargnani 3 times. I did not pick Chris Bosh. Take that for what you will. I do feel like I got a good value with where I picked JG and AB.
