Is Richardson playing tonight for the Suns? Yahoo isn't updating it, I need to know if he's gonna play or I'm just gonna start someone else.

I think he passed his physical and is cleared to play tonight. Don't quote me though.
Don't forget, it's his first game with a new time though so don't expect him to have a monster game.

How long is G. Wallace out for

 

[rfx45]

G. Wallace should be back on their next game.
It was reported that he was back in practice today.

Depends, who are you picking up? Deng is very inconsistent, Thompson is a question mark because of the depth of Sacramento's young kids, andNene for Love is a wash except that Love gets more boards and Nene scores more and gets blocks/steals. You'll lose a bit of scoring from this bunchyou're getting, but Josh Smith is a stud regardless. If you have a good player in mind to pick up, I'd say sure.

 

[jville819]

I need to get some more assists and I want to unload one of SF. I got JRich, VC, Caron, TMac, and Maggette. Who do y'all think I should give up in order toget the best trade.

I want to go after Duhon, i'm just uncertain on which player to give up

 

[japanair21]

Kepe Tracy, Caron, and VC. JRich might do it, but I don't think anyone would want Maggette right now.

Stuckey had four more points than Iverson but took 4 less shots and 1 less ft.

Figures I dropped Rasho in a lot of leagues today,

Fantasy stud of the night: Brandon Roy: 38 points, 4 reb, 9 ast, 2 blocks tonight in a losing effort.
Fantasy dud of the night: Vince Carter: 0/13 shooting, 4 reb, 3 ast, 3 to, 3 points.

 

[nike4kja05]

should I pick up nate robinson?

rest of my team:
G: Chalmers, Westbrook, CP3, Gordon, Andre Miller, and Delonte West
F: Gerald Wallace, Josh Smith, Francisco, and Scola
C: Marc Gasol and Jermaine O'Neal

I'm thinking chalmers

 

[rfx45]

Who to bench tomorrow?
I only need to bench one.

R. Brewer vs. Orlando
T. Young vs. Washington
T. Prince vs. Charlotte

I was going to bench Young for sure but they are going against Washington and I'm not sure if he will be back in the starting line-up.
And Wilson Chandler has been up and down lately.
I also have Marquis Daniels and I do not know if he got hurt tonight or what but he didn't play as much minutes after playing two great games.

 

[japanair21]

I'd say Brewer. I'd definitely play Young though, in order I'd play them Young, Prince, Brewer.

Charlotte and Washington are weak teams.

 

[jdub4]

Is this a fair trade?

I give:
Amare
Melo
Mayo

I get:
Bosh
Iguodola
Iverson

This is the rest of my team

I'm really lacking in steals and assists. We play FG%, FT%, 3PTM, 3PT%, PTS, OREB, REB, AST, ST, BLK, TO

 

[da xplicit one]

I really need rebs and FG%. Should I trade Brand and Brad Miller for Gasol and Bogut? Gasol and Bogut have a way better FG%, and a few more rebs.

 

[Los Angeles]

i would pull the trigger on pau and bogut

 

[nublee]

Is anyone else as happy as I am that mo cheeks is finally gone?

Welcome back to fantasy relevance Sammy

 

[rfx45]

^^^ I guess that spells disaster for Thaddeus Young's PT?
He was benched once again tonight and people started dropping him in Yahoo leagues.
Has his value really gone down? I was hoping they would actually run plays on him now but being out of the starting five can't be good.

 

[da xplicit one]

this trade sucks that 2 people in my league did

  CTB trades Chris Bosh, Tor PF to N YOUR FACE       CTB trades Jose Calderon, Tor PG to N YOUR FACE       CTB trades Rasheed Wallace, Det C to N YOUR FACE       4TRE trades Luol Deng, Chi SF to Bombers       4TRE trades Tim Duncan, SA PF to Bombers       4TRE trades Jameer Nelson, Orl PG to Bombers

4TRE just picks up and drops Deng and Nelson every week

 

[japanair21]

Dirkness.

20/20 from Bogut!

17/7/3 from Brook
Vince stepped up his efforts from last night,

 

[rawrblackcat]

Gerald Walace @ Atl
or
Troy Murphy @ Was

?

 

[japanair21]

I'd say Gerald.

But that's just me. The Bobcats need all the points they can get now, and I'm sure he has the greenlight.

 

[japanair21]

CRAP.

I had an empty roster spot and forgot to update, could have had Al's 33 or Deron's 17/11...

I'm winning 6-0, but still... that could come back and bite me..

 

[jc08]

What does everyone think of Dalembert? I currently have Brad Miller as my center, but he has been horrific for past two weeks. I'm thinking of replacinghim with one of the following:

Samuel Dalembert
Tyson Chandler
Udonis Haslem
Paul Millsap
Kendrick Perkins
Brook Lopez

This is my current team. 8 team H2H. I'm going against number 1 seed this Monday and I'm in second at the moment

[japanair21]

I'd rank those in the following order.

Tyson Chandler
Sam Dalembert

Brook Lopez


Udonis Haslem

Paul Millsap


Kendrick Perkins


Your blocks aren't that bad, so it's not completely a necessity for you to get a big blocker (Brook, Kendrick, Tyson), but you could focus on a morerounded-out player. Tyson and Sam are both capable of monster nights, and Brook is just off that.

 

[japanair21]

, Some dummy dropped Kevin Martin for Boris Diaw, scooped him up ftw

(had 9th waiver too

)

So I have Charlie V, Stuckey, Nate Robinson, and Westbrook on my FA list...


I don't know who if anyone I can drop.. JJ? VC? Rip? Tracy? Dirk? JHo? Shaq? Chandler? Bosh? TP? KMart? Duhon? Artest?

The only thing I can think of is POSSIBLY Chandler, but I think I need all the rebounding I can get with this squad, and having 2 Centers is

.




Then in another league, I have Charlie V, Rafer, Kendrick, Stuck, Nate, Brook, Westbrook on my FA list, but I don't know who I can drop.

Mayo? W. Chandler? Salmons? SJAX? Antawn? Troy? Biedrins, Calderon? Amare? Dwight? Duhon? AK47? Kidd, B-Miller?

I'm thinking of doing Brad Miller for Brook Lopez, and then Charlie V or Westbrook or Nate for W. Chandler... I'm kind of iffy on both though.

 

[gregodensbedpan]

wow.. can't believe i made some decent pickups from free agency

stuckey and villanueva are killing fools right now.
so glad i didn't trade bogut away; 20/20 baby..
