Line of the Night: Tony Parker’s (1.2) name might come to mind when you think about the best of what yesterday had to offer. Thanks to a little double overtime action, he scored 55 points and used some of that extra time to chip in 7 boards and 10 assists to will the Spurs to their first win of the season. How can someone possibly have a better night that that?
Well, Amare Stoudemire (2.0) has something he wants to say. While Amare was “only†able to score 49 points, he had 11 boards, 6 assists, 5 steals, and 2 blocks. He also shot 81% from the field compared to 61% for Parker. So yeah, that’s one way to beat out a guy who scores 55 points for the LotN.
Honorable Mentions: In addition to Parker, Tayshaun Prince (1.03) scored 27 points off 10-13 shooting, adding 9 boards and 2 blocks, Dwyane Wade (1.01) went with some retro shoes yesterday for a retro Wade line: 29/7/6. Lebron James (0.96) scored 41 for the Cavs, but had 5 turnovers. Contrary to popular belief, Richard Jefferson (0.84) is not dead, he’s just living in Milwaukee. Jefferson had 32/3/9. And 19 and 15 for Nene (0.65). Damn, I wish I had gotten him in at least one draft.
Waiver Wire Line of the Night: In shallow leagues, Nate Robinson (0.77) is continuing his role as a super spark plug off the bench for the Knicks. He had 24 points and was 5-5 from three last night. Luke Ridnour (0.51) is back with a vengeance. If someone in your league got a little anxious while he was out and dropped him, think about picking him up, at least until he gets hurt again.
Other Good Pickups: Wilson Chandler (0.47) went for 18 and 7 in 36 minutes off the bench and Kelenna Azubuike (0.46) had 22 and 8 with 2 steals for the Warriors (Corey Maggette sat out and DeMarcus Nelson “started†and played a total of 6 minutes – got to love Don Nelson).
Ridiculous Number of Steals Line of the Night: I wondered why Mario Chalmers (0.54) ranked 14th on the nightly board with 6 points and 6 assists. Oh right, the 9 steals he had probably had something to do with it. He’s now averaging 3.8 a game, which I’d assume would be some sort of record if he kept it up the rest of the year.
Ridiculous Dancer Pic of the Night:
I mean, come on Atlanta. Ridiculous.
Biggest Loser: Al Harrington (-0.44) is angry. He wants a trade. Don Nelson is responding like a mature adult and is not playing Harrington. Harrington is responding to that like the man that he is and has stopped caring. The result of all that is: 16 minutes, 3 points, 1 rebound. Harrington owners, you are completely screwed until he gets traded.
Dishonorable Mentions: Is it time to give up on Tyrus Thomas (-0.42)? I would have recommended never to have hoped in the first place. What has hope ever done for anyone anyway? Kirk Hinrich (-0.4). BLAAAAAAGGGH. I think that 0-5, 2 point, 2 assist game just made me throw up in my mouth a little. And David Lee (-0.39) – 8 points, 4 boards – will see better days ahead.
