Week 8

[nzcloud]

What a downer!!
Just last week I was pondering on the line-up, and was patting myself on the back of picking Carmello when he was ranked like #30+ in the draft.

Then a big WHAMP!!! all of a sudden, I am back at the bottom with his suspension of 15 games...

Not a smart player, not behaving like a professional. The next time he throws a punch, better think about breaking the heart of thousands of fantasy owner.

Hopefully the ASFN league is not a Keeper's league. I would drop him next year.

It is a keeper league.

Oh and by the way Mulli, you can have Brevin Knight back...

 

[Mulli]

That was you?

That was you?

No, that was Nash. Then I got BK from him.
And he is laughing all the way to the bank now with the player I swapped with him.

Say it an't so, Nash...

aint so dude. I'm sad that you lost Melo

but honestly man, you can't complain about BK's production. He's a solid 16 p, 8 ast guy when healthy.
My team has been racking up a lot of points (league No. 2) but my playas go all sedate while playing decent oppositions.

I now blame Kate for giving me Kaman in exchange for May

 

[Nash]

I was presented with two interesting choices this week. who to start?
1. C : Kaman or Marvin Williams ?
Kaman has been pretty ordinary all year. Marvin meanwhile, had a decent first week after returning from his injury. Besides, Kaman had a tough schedule this week.
So I went with Marvin.

2. Mike Miller or Matt Barnes ?
They both scored pretty much the same number of f pts/game last week. They both have 4 games this week.
I went with Mike because of 2 reasons:
Pau is likely to start playing decent mins this week. that could mean Mike can focus on scoring instead of rebounding.
In Barnes case though, Biedrins and Jason Rich are likely to return from injuries this week. So Barnes is likely to lose PT.

looks like the second decision was a stoopid one! Barnes has made 28 first half points against Mike's 16.
crap!

lmao

And to think, I was gonna nix the deal, but at the last moment said, screw it - I will do it. It makes me feel a little bit better about the not drafting Okafor thing.

 

[Nash]

errr.....I was kind of very wrong about Mike Miller earlier. He almost had a triple double tonight!
75.5 fantasy pts : 29 p/11 r/7 a/5 3pm !!

woo hoo!

 

[green machine]

Look out league, my team is starting to roll. As long as Al Jefferson keeps giving me production from the C spot, my team won't suck.

 

[Lefty]

I drafted Brevin Knight and traded him and I am very happy with Ridnour I am not happy that I will be without Lamar Odom for another 3-4 weeks.

I KNEW IT! I JUST KNEW IT!
beneath the veneer of a Suns fan, Zona90 really is a Laker fan.

NO ONE CAN FOOL ME.

That is the one thing that sucks about fantasy football/basketball/baseball, you get players that are onteams that you don't like. I'll pull for Odom but hope the Lakers lose.

 

[Nash]

great. just great! Monta Ellis (my team) is out 'for a while' with a sprained ankle.

 

[thirty-two]

Great - Kevin Martin AND Sean May are out this week with injuries. And Charlie, too, but I think he came back last night.

LOL

from CoJack. It's nice to play someone who also has injuries.

WOW now Krstic is out with a knee injury.

4/5 of my starters are either out with an injury, taking a game off cuz they're hurt, OR they just got hurt.

Zona, you definitely have this week in the bag. Crap!

 

[Chaplin]

Injuries are strange this year--if your team has injuries, for some freak reason, it's usually more than one player on your roster. Very strange.

I just lost Rashard Lewis, but hopefully Jason Richardson will get it together and I'll be alright.

Hey, I proposed a trade to you - go check!

 

[Nash]

Hey, I proposed a trade to you - go check!

cojack: never get into a trade with Kate. review her proposal and quickly make the players she wanted to starters on your team. poor performers usually start doing well once they go to her team, so if she needs a player, thats a sign he's going to explode
Take it from someone who traded with her.

Hey, you initiated that trade!! But now Sean is out with an ankle sprain, and Nenad Krstic is out for the year. So that sucks.

Doesn't matter though - Zona denied it. He wanted a GF, and I proposed one with similar numbers to who was on his trade block, so I'm not quite sure what else he is looking to get.

 

[Nash]

Nenad Krstic is out for the year. So that sucks.

yeah I read the news somewhere and felt bad for him. Though I've not seen much of him, he comes across as a hard working, selfless guy. Too bad for him, and you too

 

[Chaplin]

Hey guys, there is a pending trade in the league right now that I'm hesitant to approve. I probably will, but I wanted some second opinions. If those of you that are still active (and not part of the trade) can look at it and give me your opinions on it, I'd be grateful.
