    …Including sex, but I digress.

    Line of the Night: What’s more impressive, 10 threes or 21 assists? For at least one night, it was the treys. Peja Stojakovic (7.8) had the highest game score yesterday, making 10 threes and scoring 36 points. But Peja wouldn’t have been able to make all those threes with out the help of Chris Paul (5.8), who dished out 21 dimes. So, I’m handing out the first co-line of the night to both Peja and Paul.

    Honorable Mentions: LeBron James (6.8) just missed a triple-double (24/14/9), if only Josh Smith (6.7) could shoot he be unbelievable, Kobe Bryant (6.4) with a ho-hum 28, and Kevin Martin (5.8) with 5 steals and 31 points.

    Waiver Wire Line of the Night: Daniel Gibson (2.5). Some one other than Lebron has to step up for the Cavs and Boobie Gibson has done it in two of their four games. Last night he scored 22 and hit five threes in 34 minutes. With Eric Snow out for at least the next month, Gibson should make a decent number two point guard in the short-term.

    Goat of the Night: Chris Bosh (-7.5) only played 15 minuets in a Toronto blowout loss to the Bucks. He finished with 1 point and 2 rebounds. Bosh got in some early foul trouble and then sat out for a lot of the second half of a meaningless game. It’s time to witness the power of Yi Jianlian people. He cannot be stopped, especially not by Chris Bosh.

      whos a better pickup? francisco garcia, bonzi wells, or yi jinlain?

      Short-term (until Bibby comes back) it’s Garica hands down. Long-term, probably Yi by a hair. Bonzi Wells just makes me mad.

      I recently picked up Garica over Yi and Wells in one league, so that’s where I stand.

      I’d probably go with Yi because he probably won’t be available when it’s time to drop Garcia. If you’re in a Roto league, the long-term impact seems much more important. In H2H it might be closer, and I could see going with Garcia then.

      Did anyone else see the Felton injury replay in slow motion? Looked a lot like an intentional soccer-type trip from Nash because Felton had easily spun around him.

      Here is the video of what Max was talking about. Oh yeah, it was pretty deliberate, although it looked like Nash was just trying to slow him down and draw the foul. Instead they got tangled and he took Felton down.
