2009-2010 Week 16 Fantasy Basketball Guide

Posted by Erik on February 7th, 2010 filed in Author: Erik, Fantasy Basketball, Injuries, Orlando Magic

Week 16 in fantasy basketball is going to get a little bit more funky than usual. Why? Well for starters, it’s the week that culminates in the NBA All-Star weekend.
This means that there are far less NBA games played in this week than any other during the season.

ONLY the Orlando Magic has THREE games scheduled [...]

Day 114 of 170: Dwight Howard Is Pissed He Didn't Win The Dunk Contest

Posted by Nels on February 18th, 2009 filed in Author: Nels, Fantasy Basketball, Orlando Magic

Line of the Night: Dwight Howard (1.56) sought revenge for his upset in the dunk contest by throwing in 45 points and grabbing 19 rebounds against the Bobcats. He also had 8 blocks and after every one of them was noted to have said “Where’s your dunk contest now bitch??” He shot 23 field goals [...]

Day 78 of 170: Jameer Tops Huge Games By Dirk, LeBron, Dwight, and Dwyane

Posted by Nels on January 14th, 2009 filed in Author: Nels, Fantasy Basketball, Orlando Magic, Player News

Line of the Night: Wow. Obviously, if you had a list that included Dirk, LeBron, Dwight, and Dwyane (yes, you should know them all on a first name basis), and Jameer, you probably wouldn’t have put money on Jameer (1.75) to have the best line of the night. But with his 23 points on 5 [...]

Day 10 of 170: Where Brandon Roy Happens

Okay, so the headline is kind of misleading since Brandon Roy was actually 30th out of 39 players last night. But watching his last-less-than-a-second shot crystallized the difference between fantasy and reality. There is a game we play, and it’s not always the game they play. But this blog is about the game WE play, [...]

Day 71 of 170: Eddy Curry has his revenge on Chicago

Posted by Nels on January 9th, 2008 filed in Author: Nels, Fantasy Basketball, New York Knicks, Orlando Magic

While he didn’t have the Line of the Night, the oft-maligned (by us) Eddy Curry came up with 29 points on 11-14 shooting (and 7-10 from the line) to help the oft-maligned (by everyone) Knicks beat the (effed in the head) Bulls. Curry had a career high (I’m guessing) 8 rebounds and 4 blocks. It’s [...]

Fantasy Team Preview: Orlando Magic

In trying to crank out the Team Previews and actually get them finished, I let Rachel take one off my hands. I’m sure no one will notice.

Addition by subtraction and then addition. That’s what the Magic did. They let Darko and Grant Hill go and landed Rashard Lewis. The Magic Dancers are hoping for the [...]

All-Star Notes

Posted by mabeuf on February 17th, 2007 filed in Author: Mabeuf, Ballin Outta Control, Fantasy Basketball, NBA Teams, Orlando Magic, Player News, Videos

The NBA’s weekend of debauchery began today. Las Vegas seems primed to put it’s firmest… errr finest on display this weekend. The entire weekend seems to be a referendum on the ability for Las Vegas to host a pro-sports franchise. Anyone else find this amusing? How many citizens/potential fans of a Las Vegas professional franchise [...]

Price Flucuation

Thus far, this NBA season has been a calamity of injuries. Did NBA players stop treating anti-inflammatories like sweettarts? I am tempted to stop writing this article and start rampantly buying shares of stock in whoever distributes Naproxen, buy low baby. Here are some of the players who are watching their value skyrocket.
- Earl Boykins [...]

Dropping Dimes – Adding Dimes – 1/12/07

or: I should have kept a closer eye on LaMarcus Aldridge since I wanted him on my team and now it’s too late
Danny Granger (Ind – SF,PF) Add
Marvin Williams (Atl – SG,SF,PF) Drop
Something to think about here. Williams game is going downhill, but could bounce back. Granger has been playing well in [...]

Fantasy Preview: Orlando Magic

Posted by Patrick on July 12th, 2006 filed in Fantasy Basketball, Fantasy Draft Guide 2006, Orlando Magic

With Jameer Nelson, the Magic had the second worst “best” fantasy player of any NBA team last season. But, unlike the team with the worst best fantasy player (I bet you can guess who they are) things are looking up for the Magic both fantasy-wise and in real life. I could go on about the [...]
