Day 124 of 170: Back That Ass Up

Posted by Patrick on February 28th, 2009 filed in Author: Patrick, Fantasy Basketball

Line of the Night: The Phoenix fantasy train isn’t just for people who can run up and down the court fast, as Shaquille O’Neal (1.25) demonstrated last night. O’Neal plowed his way to 45 points on 20-25 shooting, adding 11 boards and 3 steals. He also went a respectable 5-8 from the line. Chris Bosh, [...]

Day 123 of 170: I kind of feel sorry for TNT

Posted by Nels on February 27th, 2009 filed in Fantasy Basketball

That sounds about 500 notches below the Lakers/Celtics feud from the 80’s, but if it motivates Howard perform like he did last night, [...]

Day 121 of 170: Emeka Okafor is the Leandro Barbosa of Sucking

Posted by Nels on February 25th, 2009 filed in Author: Nels, Charlotte Bobcats, Fantasy Basketball, Toronto Raptors

Line of the Night: About as far as from San Antonio as you get in the league, The Other Anthony Parker (1.22) put up 24 points (3 threes, 80% FG, 83% FT), 7 rebounds, 6 assists, and 2 steals. He’s not quite in the Top 100 for the season, but according to Basketball Monster he’s [...]

FUTURES Watch: Francisco Garcia

Posted by Erik on February 24th, 2009 filed in Author: Erik, Fantasy Basketball, Sacramento Kings

Francisco Garcia has come out from the shadow of the now departed (for Chicago) John Salmons to become part of the stimulus package to help bail-out the Sacramento Kings players’ fantasy values. If he’s available in your league, wonder if there are any active managers still playing, then grab him nonetheless. While I was higher [...]
