Thought I’d throw up a special weekend column, since I’m not sure I’ll have one for tomorrow since it’s a holiday and all. Before we get into the situations to pay attention to, I thought we should check in on some of the centers who recently won starting jobs... Link
"Washington Wizards Coach Eddie Jordan shook up his starting lineup and reserve rotation Wednesday night by making Caron Butler a starter along with Gilbert Arenas, Jared Jeffries, Antawn Jamison and Brendan Haywood," writes Ivan Carter of THE WASHINGTON POST.... Link
So I had a strategy this year going into the draft. It was pretty simple – draft players who were likely to play 80 games, take the best player available over the first 6-7 rounds but also make sure to get two solid centers so I wouldn’t have to... Link
So BV did his draft recap and now it’s my turn. Like he said, we start 10 players (PG, SG, G, SF, PF, F, C, C, UT, UT), with three bench spots, 12 teams. So it’s a pretty deep league, and it’s very competitive. Hard to slip sleepers past... Link
1 to 30 31 to 60 61 to 90 91. Jamaal Tinsley – The ultimate tease; few can match his 3s/steals/assists combo, but he plain cannot shoot or stay healthy. 92. Eddie Jones – Certainly on the downside of his career, but can handle lots of minutes and hit... Link
Miami Heat What can anyone say about a team with Shaquille O'Neal and Dwayne Wade? Of course the Heat will be the favorites to go to the NBA finals. As great as the Heat were last season, look at what they have done in the off season. They... Link

Boy, this was a rough weekend. There were tons of little injuries and flare-ups, and huge warning signs all over the place. One league of mine, which generally sees about 5 or 6 moves in a weekend, had 13 separate waiver wire transactions involving 22 players on Saturday and... Link
Everyone knew Antawn Jamison was a good player, but this is ridiculous. The addition of Jamison to the Wizards lineup seems to have brought the team together in a way Michael Jordan s ill fated comeback attempt couldn t. The Wizards hold one of the most potent offensive games... Link
Sunburned. The non-game of the week(end), Phoenix vs. Indiana, was pretty much over after 5 minutes. The Suns broke out to a 15-3 lead and never looked back. What it did do, however, was give us a chance to look at some of the Suns second-stringers, who got a... Link
Team Chemistry ... and why it often doesn't matter when it comes to fantasy basketball. In the latest episode of "As The Kobe Turns" ("Kobes of our Lives"? "General Kobe"?) Kobe Bryant is now crying about how Karl Malone was hitting on his wife. Meanwhile, he refers to his... Link
Take a guess who is in the top 5 in team scoring. C'mon, I dare ya. Dallas Mavericks? Sorry, no, they're 6th. The Kings? pfft! Not even in the top half. OK, stop embarassing yourself. Yeah, the Heat, with Dwayne Wade and Shaq, that's not a huge surprise. And... Link
