Posted by Patrick on January 13th, 2012 filed in Atlanta Hawks, Author: Patrick, Injuries, NBA Teams

Yesterday’s big injury news came with reports that Al Horford was expected to miss the next three-to-four months with a torn pectoral muscle in his left shoulder. It was an injury that happened in the first quarter of Wednesday game against the Pacers. It’s a huge blow to Horford’s fantasy owners. Even a best case [...]

Day 14 of 124: Where Josh Smith Has a Game

Posted by Nels on November 17th, 2010 filed in Atlanta Hawks, Author: Nels, Fantasy Basketball

Line of the Night: Josh Smith (2.11 on the player rater) threw a little block party in Indiana last night. Not only did he block 7 shots, but he shot 56% from the field, grabbed 8 rebounds, got 1 steal, and shot a very un-Smitty-like 6-7 from the line. While 7 blocks isn’t going to [...]

Fantasy Basketball Preview: Atlanta Hawks

It’s always a good idea to let Kobe rub some of his magic on you before starting contract negotiations A few sportswriters have written about the disease of more. It’s the concept that team success breeds individual greed. Players simply want what they perceive to be their fair share, whether that is more money, playing [...]
