ESPN's fantasy website is pretty solid. They routinely update stats before I see them on almost live TV, even with ESPN broadcasted games. Pretty funny.


Yeah, I noticed that too. If I had league pass I would never leave my house. I do get all the Warriors games, and catch a chunk of probably half of them.

I actually have a man-crush on Curry too. I remember watching Davidson games in the NCAA tournament and I would basically hold my breath whenever he shot because it was so electric. That dude's incredible.

I remember watching his dad play for the Hornets back in the day. Dell had one of the quickest releases in NBA history. Steph has a super quick release too, but his shot is much prettier than Dell's. And seriously, when Steph is open, that shit goes down like 80% of the time. The D focuses on not letting him get open, but he still gets his.

I caught the second half of the SillySonics game today, watching my other man crush (Serge Ibaka) tie his career high with 25 points. He also added 17 boards. Halfway threw the fourth quarter, I checked his recent game stats and realized he had exactly one assist in the last ten games, and exactly one steal in the last ten games. How does that happen? Playing starters minutes, only one time in the last ten games he passed the ball to a guy who then scored? Only one time in ten games an opponent accidentally threw the ball to where Ibaka was standing? This seems amazingly improbable, like standing against the rail at a GWAR show without getting jizzed on.

Ibaka did get an assist with three minutes left (2 in 10 games!) and nearly got another on the next play but Durant missed an open three. If I played his minutes, I'm confident I could get more than two assists and a steal in ten games. It's so incomprehensible, it needed to be pointed out.

Maybe. However, there is no way you are scoring 25 points and grabbing 17 boards over those same 10 games.

2.5 points and 1.7 rebounds per game with starters minutes? Mark it down!

I've thought about this: the only way I would ever score in the NBA is if I was lagging way behind a play because I was winded, and my team stole the ball and I got the outlet pass, cherry-picking at the basket. And that would have to happen several times, because LeBron would chase me down and block it 4 out of 5 times.

Even good rebounders don't hit the glass on every shot. Standing near the rim will give you at least two unimpeded rebounds per game. In my day, I was 6'5 shooter, so camping in the corner will allow a couple wide open threes per game. 2.5 points and 1.7 rebounds in ten games would happen.

Danilo Gallinari, I owned him for a month, you owned him for a month, and the first game after you traded him to Chodinez, he scores a career high 39.

We are supremely getting our asses kicked in assists. I am 150 assists behind the 8th place team, and 150 assists in front of you. I've never punted a category, but I don't see how either of us makes up ground. Ricky Rubio pulled a fast one on me. I planned on sitting him the first couple weeks back until he started playing more minutes, but he had 9 assists and 3 steals his first game back (on my bench). So I Dr. Garbanzoured he could help even in limited minutes. In his last four games, 11 assists and 3 steals combined (in my lineup).

Yeah, I might have to quit that category. I don't have a chance to get into the top five, I don't think, but I could raise a few spots if I maximize my strengths for the last half of the season.

In Brian McKitish's recent article, he ranked the top 130 fantasy players moving forward. I own 5 of the top 14, and Dwayne Wade, a first rounder who was ranked 23. Out of those six studs, I only drafted one of them. I started out with a pretty shitty team, but I'm Dr. Garbanzouring this game out. I don't think I'm going to be in 7th place all year.

I might be top 3 before all is said and done, which would guarantee a non-invite to next season's league.

Huh?

I see. So a food blogger with ties to a big time NBA agent tweets that the Kings are moving to Seattle and we should assume it's fact. Not completely buying this...yet.

Looks like Yahoo! Sports picked up the story. Looks like it has legs. This will be good for the NBA. It was a travesty that the Sonics ever left.
