After a heavy weekend of games on Friday and Saturday night, the action was light with a six-game slate, but there was plenty of drama in fantasyland in head-to-head leagues. We’ll let you in on who the difference-makers were, both good and bad, because even though it’s a fantasyland, things don’t always go your way.
Fig Cap: I’m looking up.

Yeah, so Saturday night wasn’t as fantasy jam-packed as Friday night. Big deal. It’s not every night we see multiple 20-rebound games. Still, a few guys stayed hot and went off last night.
The Fig Cap: “Yeah, hey Raja, can you miss about 75 more games? Thanks bud.”

The Fig Cap: Who doesn’t like boobies… err, Boobie’s game.
Another week in fantasy basketball land and we’re starting to see some players stepping up their game and establishing themselves (Daniel Gibson, Ronnie Brewer, Francisco Garcia) or RE-establishing their fantasy value (Chris Kaman, Richard Jefferson) – but for how long? We’ll look into this and other things to think about for the upcoming week. But, first let’s look at how many times each team plays next week…

Friday night had to be the best night so far in this early season for fantasy owners. How so? Keep reading my friend.
Some nice lines, a couple of injury returns, and one possible emerging backup headline today’s edition of Dropping Dimes on the Daily.
The Fig Cap: AK has been eating his, uh… whatever that is.

Dropping Dimes On The Daily is all about the team looking at the previous night’s performances and mentioning those that did pretty goodly and those that did pretty badly. Goodly is a word, right?

The Fig Cap: Oh yeah? But how much was your contract extension?

Dropping Dimes Staff Rankings: Week 3
Posted by Brandon Haraway Categories: Disses, H2H, Injuries, Props, Roto,
The Fig Cap: Hopefully D-Wade isn’t wearing this suit in Week 3.
Some big injury updates, and a whole lot of movement on our rankings. Lamar Odom is supposed to be back, but the DD team doesn’t put him in their top 20 quite yet. Dwyane Wade is also set to come back, and he barely cracks his position’s ranks. Amare Stoudemire makes a big fall after missing three straight - and possibly more - games.
Here’s a look at this week’s team-by-team schedules:

Fantasy Lab—The Advanced Strategy Series: Game-Time Decisions
Posted by Matt Satten Categories: Editorial, Injuries, Roto, Phoenix Suns,
The Fig Cap: Is It Always Sunny in Phoenix?
Only fantasy sports fans will tell you that they prefer a broken leg over a sprained ankle any day. While a broken leg would likely be considered a more serious injury, at least you know the player is out a finite number of weeks (4-6 weeks in this case) and that he’ll be back good as new once that time has elapsed. With a sprained ankle, nothing is certain and everything is open to interpretation. As a result, the injury report will always say “day-to-day” and said player will usually be the dreaded “game-time decision.”
Handling Game-time Decisions
You might be a great fantasy general manager or owner having stockpiled a wealth of talent in the draft and/or via trade, however, it’s how you coach your squad and the key personnel decisions you make that will determine if you’re top tier or just another guppy.

It’s my first crack at this DDoTD thing and I only get to write about one game? Gee, thanks guys.
Anyways, yesterday was one of those funky one-game days fantasy owners hate (or love, depending on how busy you are). At least it was a good one. Too bad most people don’t get NBATV.
The Fig Cap: That’s right, Mr. Classy. You knock down those shots. No Jason, JUMPshots.
