Jason Maxiell - Fantasy BasketballHey all.  Sorry for no Daily Drop today.  By now you all should know that Amare Stoudemire had an amazing night, Kevin Martin will miss four-to-six weeks, and LeBron James’ finger may be worse than we had originally assumed.  With that said…here’s this week’s edition of Wire to Wire.  More Daily drops as the week rolls on!

Last week’s piece brought some highs and some lows, but this week brings even more waiver love as one of the game’s best point guards will miss the next three months after knee surgery.  Could Don Nelson finally be settling on a shooting guard?  Do we have a new point man in Minnesota?  Who the heck is Jamario Moon?  All these answers and more in this week’s edition.

Last week was definitely a bit rough as several of my mentions either succumbed to injury or simply underperformed.  Call it a jinx or call it poor timing, it just wasn’t a very fruitful exercise.  Here’s to hoping that this week is a bit different!

After all of the ‘tweener types that we discussed last week, I did my best to incorporate some point men as well as a handful of big guys.  The rotational issue in Toronto is killing a lot of owners, but a certain undrafted rookie may be benefiting.  A career resurgence in Minnesota and an injury in New Jersey may be opening up that much more production for some that may have not received time otherwise.  All this and more in this week’s edition of Wire to Wire.

I want to apologize in advance for all of the swingmen listed in this week’s edition of Wire to Wire.  If anything, this shows us that we should never overpay for shooting guards and small forwards on draft day, as there is plenty of value on the wire within the first few weeks of the season.  Later on, we have to count on injuries and trades, but out of the gate is where we’ll see which roles that players have in their respective systems.  With that said, here are this week’s targets for your wholesome waiver wire additions.

Man, it feels good to be back.  After the last few months of mock drafts, expert league results and preseason play, we finally get to put all of our hard work to use.  Dennis has already given you all the primer for the beginning of the season, but what he didn’t dive into too much (thankfully, for job security purposes) were some of the talent that can still be found on waiver wires of all league sizes and formats.  That, ladies and gentlemen, is where I come in.  From this week on, Wire to Wire will give you the low down on the up-and-comers that can help out your fantasy squad.  But enough of the introduction, let’s get into the goods for the premier week of the 2007-08 season.  Enjoy.

Rashard Lewis

Wow, can you believe that Rashard Lewis was selected in Round 3, pick 4 last year? A lot has changed since then - Brittney Spears is divorced, Paris Hilton was in jail, Rosie O’Donnell quit “The View,” and eventually replaced by Whoopi Goldberg. Jeez, I need to put down those gossip magazines!  (ED: No doubt, woman!)

In the fantasy basketball world, prior to the Kevin Garnett trade, one of the major headlines this offseason was the free agent signing of Rashard Lewis by the Orlando Magic. The Magic was looking for a 3-point presence to help prevent defenses from collapsing in on the man-child, Dwight Howard. In Rashard Lewis they have that 3-point presence and a lot more!

Round 2, Pick 5: Rashard Lewis, SF, Orlando Magic

Franchise: Taking his cufflinks elsewhereI’m not sure where I went wrong, but while I’m sitting here in an office that faces a parking garage, Steve Francis is not only fresh off of a $30 million buyout, but he’s now the NBA’s newest free agent.  A free agent that’s likely to sign a deal with a very good team, for even more money. 

The Miami Herald reports that “Franchise” cleared waivers last night and will now test the free agent market.  Conveniently, Francis has narrowed down his list of possible destinations.  Here’s a hint: Milwaukee is not on the list.

Of the four teams that the veteran has chosen to be possible suitors, three of them are Western Conference teams looking to go a bit further in the playoffs than their past suggests, and one Eastern Conference team that I hear has a fairly nice beach scene near by.

Kobe Bryant is excited!
Fig Cap: Kobe is REALLY excited that I chose him… and apparently the other dude too.

So, I’m watching The Professional starring Jean Reno and Natalie Portman as I write this… kick butt movie.  However, aside from the great action scenes and brilliant Gary Oldman performance, there just isn’t something right about the relationship between Leon and Mathilda.  But, you know what it’s just a movie and I love it no matter what.  I sort of feel the same about Kobe Bryant - despite any moral apprehension I might have, it’s just fantasy basketball and I love the stats that Bryant gives me. 

I guess this makes me a Kobephiliac.
