Day 66 of 170: Oh, You Thought Having Rip Hamilton Back Would Be a Good Thing?

Posted by Nels on January 1st, 2010 filed in Author: Nels, Fantasy Basketball, San Antonio Spurs

Line of the Night: Tim Duncan (0.89) had 23 points and 10 rebounds, but none of his usual blocks (2 steals though). He did everyone a favor by shooting 77% from the field and 100% (okay, 3 of 3) from the line.
Honorable Mentions: As Patrick pointed out, Kevin Durant (0.77) wanted to be more aggressive [...]

Posted by Nels on December 16th, 2009 filed in Author: Nels, Fantasy Basketball, San Antonio Spurs

Line of the Night: Tim Duncan (1.15) proved (once again) that being on or playing against a fast-paced team can make all the difference in fantasy basketball. Phoenix pushed the pace of their game against the Spurs to 116 points. While Phoenix’s Possession’s Per Game aren’t at an all time high (only 95 per game), [...]

Day 9 of 170: Chris Paul Walks Tall

Posted by Patrick on November 5th, 2009 filed in Author: Patrick, Fantasy Basketball, San Antonio Spurs

Line of the Night: Chris Paul (1.45). I can’t put it any better than At the Hive… Chris Paul is just good at basketball. So good it makes my stomach tingle. Paul became the third fastest player to 3,000 assists last Monday and followed up that performance with a 39 point, 5 rebound, 7 [...]

Day 73 of 170: Weakest Line of the Night Ever

Posted by Nels on January 9th, 2009 filed in Author: Nels, Fantasy Basketball, San Antonio Spurs

Line of the Night: Manu Ginobli (0.86) takes LotN out of only 39 players last night, but it didn’t take much for him to do that. His 13 points, 4 rebounds, 5 assists, and 4 steals were enough to do it in spite of 4/9 shooting from the field. Nothing terrible there, but nothing outstanding [...]

Line of the Night: Tony Parker (1.14) had a fairly anemic LotN with 27 points, 8 assists, and 4 steals on only 43% shooting.
Honorable Mentions: Amare Stoudemire (1.03) had a much more impressive seeming 25 points, 13 rebounds, 2 steals, and 2 blocks on 50% shooting. But I am not one [...]
