Line of the Night: Deron Williams (5.90) had 29, 3, and 12 while shooting 10/14 from the field, and 7/8 from the line. He deuced it up with 2 threes, 2 steals, and 2 blocks. I Heart Deron Williams?

Honorable Mentions: LeBron (5.74) must have still been all psyched up from throwing it down on Nowitzki, because he had a triple-double (26/13/11) trying to do everything against Houston; when I put it this way: 13/3/9 for a normal player, it’s not that great. But when I say that about Marcus Camby (5.12), you konw it’s rebounds, steals, and blocks. Nine blocks. Ho hum. Just another game from Marcus Camby. Earl Watson (5.05) should be picked up if he isn’t already gone (or if you’re playing Big Ball and don’t need a true PG). He is proving himself to be Oklahoma City’s Point Guard.

Waiver Wire Line of the Night: Francisco Garcia (4.21) stepped up in the absence of Mike Bibby, scoring 23 points on 5 threes and adding 6 rebounds. That’s the kind of SG you want on your Big Ball team. Or your Mid Ball team. I mean, Keith Van Horn is back, right? Right??

Other guys on the Hot or Not Watch Meter: Keith Bogans (4.07) had 3 threes and a decent shooting night. Not much else, but if you’re into that thing, he’ll be good to you. Marko Jaric (3.65) came back strong despite boning his girlfriend all weekend after resting up all weekend. Acie Law (3.50). Hooray! Another scoring PG for Atlanta! Luis Scola (3.46) is looking like a decent backup C. Or, a decent starting C if one of your centers is injured right now. Anthony Carter (3.35) had another Small Ball PG type game. I’m going with he also has a hot WAG rested a lot this past weekend.

What The Eff Line of the Night: Kobe Bryant (4.87) find himself at number 5 with 23/5/3 and 5 steals. This from a guy who played 3 minutes in the All Star game cause he has some bone floating around in his finger? There’s determination… and then there’s kinda stupid. You decide.

The Biggest Loser: Tayshaun Prince (1.97) has been hot and cold all year. He used to be a really good Mid Ball kind of guy. Now he’s not enough dependable enough to fill a spot on that mythical team. His 9/1/2 on 4/10 shooting with 1 steal was proof enough of that.

Other Stuff Like This:

    Yeah I still have Wilcox and as of 25min ago I still have Nick too :) ... dropped Udonis Haslem to get Nick Collison back.
  • Bad timing with the drop Leonard. But, it should be great for both Collison and Wilcox, and at least you have Wilcox, right?
  • Leonard
    Spurs acquire Thomas from Sonics for Barry, Elson (yahoo)

    Just when I dropped Nick Collison last week. I hope Chris Wilcox does well with this
  • At this point, I'd go with Anthony Carter as well. But, like Patrick said, maybe wait one more day.
  • Anthony Carter is probably the best of that bunch (and he'll get you some assists), but Tinsley is supposed to be back in the Pacers lineup tonight, so I'd at least wait until tomorrow to see if he plays. Tinsley when healthy is still better than Carter.
  • Leonard
    2 PG's on my 20 H2H. I don't want to drop but it might be time.

    Derek Fisher - He's my 4thpg (sad part is thats behind Gill, Tony, Jamal...bet you can guess how many times I've won in the AST column the past 2 months)

    Jamaal Tinsley - He's out another week and Rotoworld hinted that he might be on the bench behind Travis Diener due to his recent play in the starting position.

    I'm asking should I drop one or both of these guys for someone listed below that's currently on my wire. I hardly watch any of these guys let alone their teams. I know most are in there current position due to teammate injury's but can't decide if I should pull the trigger

    Last Month yahoo Avg Rank

    James Posey........62
    Jannero Pargo......92
    Anthony Carter.....94
    Sebastian Telfair..98
    Travis Diener......120
  • @Justin, maybe you'd have a better time finding places to bet if you weren't so busy spamming my site with comments. PS: Links in the comments section automatically get a "nofollow" tag, so they won't be indexed by search engines. Also, for you (and others), the name of your website is on the comment black hole blacklist, so no one will ever see a comment with that name in it again.
