I mean, really, who knew?

Points in the Paint is now big enough to have moved to the Bloguin network. Erik will still be posting here, but he’s kind of acting as a double-agent now, I guess. His double-agenting begins with that Ronny Turiaf post, and continues with this post about how to make the playoffs in your head-to-head league. It’s almost as if Rachel Gibson (aka Rachel Nichols) and Jason Bourne had a love child.

Fantasy Basketball Jedi reports that Jameer Nelson is probably out for a month with a dislocated shoulder. A shame, because he was really starting to come on as a fantasy basketball player (as evidenced by his Top 20 ranking on both the 8 and 9 cat Player Raters).

The creatively-named NBA Fantasy Basketball Blog has Fantasy Basketball All-Stars from both conferences. Clearly, they’re not just the best fantasy players in each conference, but more like a list of underrated fantasy players who are performing at a high level.

Speaking of All-Stars, we all know that Chris Paul is a fantasy stud, but did you know he’s valuable as a real-world basketball player too???

Oh, and did you hear Kobe dropped 61 on the Knicks in MSG? According to Hardwood Paroxysm that qualifies him to become Death, The Destroyer of Worlds. And you can’t really argue.

And I think I forgot to mention… she’s going to be in the GI Joe movie. Which, by the way, is going to be AWESOME.

  • Double agent? I don't know what you're talking about! I have no memory of any such thing. I woke up on some fishing boat near Nice, France and was captured by two Americans who are keeping me in a room with a computer that has internet access to only NBA sites! They tell me that if I don't write for their blog, they will kill the kidnap LBJ, CP3, and Danny G during the last 2 weeks of the NBA season (which is h2h playoffs, btw)!
  • Sorry about that. Next time, I'll try putting them in as Wordpress's "medium" size and let people who want the full monty click through. Of course, I'll need to work on the attachment template if that's going to work. It's all jacked up right now.
  • C'mon man...these babe pictures means I can barely read the posts due to rapid skimming over them while reading at work.
  • Did you say something, Nels?
