really good matchup wasnt expectin do so well. Ryan Anderson has been a beast so far. Playin the seasiders this week should get a solid start tonight with every player playin. Ps trade offer in for you Seasiders need too get rid of Deron

I got put up against a team with Rondo, as such I got absolutely spanked on assists.

Not gonna happen with Harden though Oggy, Josh Smith you can have but Harden is gonna have a big year.

i agree with you their he's class. Smith is just a upgrade on Marion Williams just hasnt lived up too be the player i thought he was goin too be. I lack assists but ill pass on them.

Not that I'm blaming D'Antoni, but Melo + Amare, the two guys who your supposed to be building your team around, are basically the antithesis of the system he's made his name playing. He's not brought them in, he's been given them and been told good luck.

It needs a new coach, but at the same time I'm not blaming the coach for the current failures. Gave up too much to get Melo.

Knicks starting off slllllllllllllow again against Washington.

Down by 10 at the moment with a minute to go in the first.

Re: NBA thread 2011 : Sat Jan 07, 2012 5:23 am  

The Bulls give us a kicking tonight at Amway. Magic jumped out to an 8 point lead in the 1st before being down 10 at the half. The Bulls peaked at 17 before we pegged them back to 3 but we ran out of gas and thier superior depth came out again. Rose as always and Deng were awesome tonight.

Best closer in the game...It's that simple. Before anybody say's Kobe, Melo is statistically better in winning or game tying shots in the final two minutes.

Iman Shumpert is a hell of a player. Toney Douglas needs be dropped to the bench. Who had Shumpert and dropped him in fantasy? I've picked him up.

Dirk done a fairly good job in the playoffs last year. Melo's great at closing, but he's never really been far in the post season so judging his 'closing' on league games isn't quite the same. Maybe we'll get to see that from Melo this year, but I doubt it, the Bulls and Heat are much better teams IMO.

Me, dropped him when he got that injury (for 4 weeks), then showed back up after 10 days.
