Maybe today we will get to play longer than 9 minutes.  I’m playing 2 ten team tournaments with our contest roster.  7 player, 210 point cap on FSL.

Starting it off with Amare Stoudemire ($36) at Center.  It was a toss-up between Howard and Stoudemire, but I like Amare’s matchup a little better.

At forward let’s go with Tim Duncan ($35) at one forward.  Duncan has been playing well and should keep it rolling.  Carlos Boozer ($35) gets a forward spot, although I’m not really comfortable with the selection.  I haven’t seen any reports on him having a health problem, so I’ll just chalk last night’s 16 FP performance up to a bad night.  Hakim Warrick ($14) gets the last forward spot.  Hakim saw some time on the bench, but still put up 20FP on Friday.  I’ll take that again today.

Andre Miller ($27) gets a guard spot.  Average night for Miller last night, but he has another good matchup today and is good value for only $27.  Manu Ginobili ($31) gets a guard spot.  Let’s see if he can come up with one of his big games at Milwaukee.  The last spot goes to Michael Redd ($31).  He has been shooting well lately, so let’s hope his has his stroke in this one.

Good luck and check back close to game time as there could be news on Boozer.

An Early Night

Saturday, March 1st, 2008

The first game tipped off at 7:00 pm and our night was over 9 minutes later when Chris Bosh went down with a knee injury and never returned.  While you can put in hours of work and call the contests ‘games of skill’, you still need a little luck to win.   Last night’s team put up 204 points with Iverson (48), B. Davis (22), A. Miller (24), Bosh (13), Warrick (20), Nowitzki (50) and Gasol (27).

At least in a daily league, you can say goobye to Bosh and start with a new team today.  For all the season long league guys who had Bosh, I feel your pain.

Only 5 NBA games today.  I’ll have the draft board up later today.
