Dropping Dimes Position Rankings: Week 18
Posted by Scott Sargent Categories: H2H, Props, Roto, Site Features,
I’m not sure about you guys, but when I get a four-day work week (President’s Day this past Monday), I find myself still cramming five days of work into less time - and it’s not fun. Ironically enough, the NBA took this past Monday off as well, but proceeded to get as many games in as possible. This week is a little different. We have more four-week teams, along with some solid action to watch on Monday.
Number of Games This Week:
Atlanta Hawks - 4; Boston Celtics - 4; Charlotte Bobcats - 4; Chicago Bulls - 4; Cleveland Cavaliers - 3; Dallas Mavericks - 4; Denver Nuggets - 3; Detroit Pistons - 2; Golden State Warriors - 4; Houston Rockets - 4; Indiana Pacers - 3; Los Angeles Clippers - 4; Los Angeles Lakers - 3; Memphis Grizzlies - 4; Miami Heat - 3; Milwaukee Bucks - 3; Minnesota Timberwolves - 3; New Jersey Nets - 3; New Orleans Hornets - 4; New York Knicks - 4; Orlando Magic - 4; Philadelphia 76ers - 4; Phoenix Suns - 4; Portland Trail Blazers - 3; Sacramento Kings - 4; San Antonio Spurs - 3; Seattle Supersonics - 4; Toronto Raptors - 4; Utah Jazz - 4; Washington Wizards – 4
POINT GUARDSAlvin Lai went with his fellow Canadian as the top point guard this week, but with the rest of us going with “Agent Zero,” Nash will have to settle for the second slot. Chris Paul rounding off the top three may be a permanent spot for him through the duration of the season.
1. Gilbert Arenas (1.25)
2. Steve Nash (1.75)
3. Chris Paul (3.00)
4. Ray Felton (4.50) - Despite rough shooting as of late
5. Allen Iverson (6.75)
5. Kirk Hinrich (6.75)
7. Jason Kidd (7.25)
8. Deron Williams (7.75) - Seems low for a four game week
9. Mike Bibby (8.00)
10. Andre Miller (11.00)
10. Jason Terry (11.00)
12. Maurice Williams (12.75)
13. Chauncey Billups (13.50) - Two games for Detroit slides him down a bit
14. Stephon Marbury (14.00)
14. Tony Parker (14.00)

Stat’s All, Folks: Redd Is Back!
Posted by Dennis Velasco Categories: Disses, H2H, Injuries, Props, Rookies, Roto, Site Features, Waiver Pick Ups,
Thanks to All-Star weekend, there is a small sample size of games to draw from, so I’ll tweak it up a bit this week by highlighting players and giving you blurbs for each one. There will be no suggestions for players to keep an eye on or ones you shouldn’t believe the hype for. However, I think you’ll live and all will still be well in your fantasy basketball world… unless you own Dwyane Wade. Read on at your own discretion, but you may need some tissues.
Statistics are from February 16th – February 22nd
POINTSBULLISH
Michael Redd, SG, Milwaukee Bucks
Last Week’s Numbers of Note: 2 G; 27.5 PPG; 43.5 FG%; 72.7 FT%
Much to the relief of the Bucks and many fantasy owners alike, Redd is back on the court and he’s pretty much picking up where he left off. It was a little bit shaky in Redd’s first game back as he “only” scored 17 points shooting an ugly 7-for-18 from the field, but his performance the following night allayed any fear. On the second night of a back-to-back, Redd scored 38 points in 40 minutes, including hitting six three-pointers. That performance shows that Redd may be getting his game legs and wrists back sooner than later.

Wire to Wire: 02.22.07

Wire to Wire aims to be your waiver wire resource for all of your fantasy basketball needs. It will dive into playing time trends, injury replacements, and even an occasional category specialist—all of which can be found on a typical waiver wire within your fantasy league at any given time.
Only a few nights back from All-Star weekend, and we’ve already had our first superstar go down with a major injury. All-World guard Dwyane Wade could miss up to six weeks with a separated shoulder. While this is truly unfortunate, it will provide a lot of opportunities for other players. Couple this with a few teams experiencing holes of their own, and we have ourselves yet another week of solid waiver wire potential.

In honor of the NBA’s All-Star Weekend, this week’s edition of Stat’s All Folks will turn into Stat’s All-Star Folks where I’ll hand out All-Star berths for the six main cumulative categories in fantasy basketball. I’ll cite the category leader as the starter and a value choice as a reserve. This value choice will be a player that I think has exceeded his expectations before the season started and/or will come on strong after the break.
Sarge, you’re welcome for the pic… everyone else, you’re welcome too. Just like the shots during the Three-Point Shootout, let’s get poppin’.
