Stat’s All Folks: “Manute Bol Is One Tall Guy”
Posted by Dennis Velasco Categories: Atlantic Division, Central Division, H2H, Northwest Division, Pacific Division, Props, Rookies, Roto, Site Features, Southeast Division, Southwest Division, Talent,
Stat’s All Folks will be a week-to-week stock market look at the standard cumulative categories – points, assists, rebounds, three-pointers made, steals, and blocks. I’ll be calling out the “bulls” and “bears” in each category, in order to help you assess your portfolio of players on your fantasy basketball team(s) and whether you should sell, hold, and/or diversify your assets.
Statistics are through November 23nd – 29th.
POINTSBULLISH
Allen Iverson, PG, Philadelphia 76ers
Last Week’s Numbers of Note: 3 G; 40.7 PPG; 44.2 FG%; 90.2 FT%
How does Iverson come back from sitting out two games because of injury? Here’s the “answer” – AI drops 46 points on the Chicago Bulls in a 123-108 Sixers win his first game back. The next night against the Cleveland Cavaliers, Iverson scores 31 points, which made many wonder if he was still suffering from injury because he only scored 31 points (sarcasm fully intended). However, AI dispelled any worries about his scoring deficiencies by hanging 45 points on the Miami Heat the following game. Iverson is just plain getting sick with it!

No cute talk this week, let’s get right down to it.
1. Adam Morrison (Steady)
What more can be said? Morrison has had an impressive rookie campaign thus far. Sure, he’s only averaging 3 boards and 2 assists a game, but he’s been logging over 40 minutes consistently lately, and he’s put in 20 points 4 of the last 7 games. As Borat would say, “Great success!”

Rookie Radar: 11.22.06
Posted by Dennis Velasco Categories: H2H, Injuries, Rookies, Roto, Site Features, Toronto Raptors, Charlotte Bobcats, Memphis Grizzlies, Portland Trailblazers, Utah Jazz,
Well, a lot to talk about this week, with lots going on in the rookie scene. Brandon Roy is out longer than expected, and a few Jazz rookies are beginning to make an impact. Overall, it was a great week in general for most rookies, and these rankings are going to be a little Jazzed up (pun intended).
1. Adam Morrison (Up)
Even if Brandon Roy wasn’t out, I’d still probably give Morrison the top spot. Although he had a bad game Monday (just 7 points), he’s been a beast in the past week, playing over 37 minutes in each of his last four games. He dropped 21 points and seven boards against the Hornets on the 14th, and followed that up with a huge 27 point game against the Spurs the next day, playing 48 minutes in the overtime win. Morrison is playing huge minutes, and with huge minutes come huge scoring, which he has shown.
