Give Me The Rock
this is fantasy basketball
Line of the Night: I’m sure Patrick was happy with Boston’s 18-point beat down on Charlotte last night, led by Ray Allen’s (1.40) 5 threes, 5 rebounds, and 5 assists. (I know, I’m kind of pushing the 5 thing here, but it’s all I got. My alternate title was: Daniloooooooooooooooo. Okay, yeah, maybe that was better.)
Honorable Mentions: Danilo Gallinari (1.22) had 6 threes (take that, Ray Allen!) along with 10 boards and 2 blocks. Both he and Allen scored 27 points, but (as would be expected) Allen was more efficient.
Waiver Wire Line of the Night: Quentin Richardson (0.94) was #3 on the night with 20 points, 4 threes, 9 rebounds, 2 assists, a steal, and a block. His Miami Heat (okay, I know they’re not his) beat the Blazers, who should start panicking and make some dramatic changes. Those changes don’t involve anything with Greg Oden (0.66) though, because he a pretty monster game with 13 points, 20 rebounds, and 4 blocks. There were some other big men double-doubles ahead of him, but nothing that stood out to me like that one.
The Biggest Loser: Corey Maggette (-0.50) managed 14 points and 7 rebounds, but shot only 31% from the field, and his usually high-volume-high-percentage free throw shooting came out to only 75% (yeah, he only missed 2 free throws, but 6-8 = 75%, what can I say?)
All Eyez On Me: Phoenix (14-4) @ Cleveland (12-5). MVP vs. MVP. Can’t ask for more than that, right?
Of course, I’ll be at the Bulls game watching the return of Ben Gordon to the Madhouse on Madison (even though he was never technically in the Madhouse on Madison).
The Golden Ticket: The Phoenix-Cleveland game is a good bet for fantasy golden-ness, since the Knickerbockers are in Orlando, and the Magic (very wisely) play a slow game.
