Championship Game Set

06 Apr 2009 | : Recap

MAGIC vs. Bird….Red Sox vs. Yankees….UNC vs. Duke…ND vs. USC…

3 6 D D vs. R O K E R S

On draft day I would not have pegged a 36DD vs. Rokers championship, but that is precisely what will happen this coming weekend.  The Rokers are clearly the hottest team in the league right now.  The Rokers overcame 47 fantasy points from Deron Williams and 48 fantasy points from Tony Parker.  It helps when Chris Paul goes off for 59 fantasy points.  All four Final Four teams scored 200+ with 36DD leading the way with 229. 

Unfortunately for Fore! Kevin Durant only had 21 fantasy points.  That is FAR below his average.  Fore! only lost by 7.5 points.  In a sick way DaLoot was hoping Vincerod had 50 fantasy points this weekend, but I just looked and he had a typical Vincerod night of 10 fantasy points Saturday night. 

Royz Boyz could not overcome the 49 fantasy points from Jamal Crawford and lost by 26.  If you had to bet $100 on whether Jamal Crawford would get 49 fantasy points or 23 fantasy points, which way would you bet?  And that is what fantasy sports is all about.  Sorry Royz Boyz.  You just took the business end of a baseball bat. 

STUDS: Deron Williams (48), Tony Parker (48), Chris Paul (59), Dwayne Wade (44), Jamal Crawford (49), Dirk Nowitzki (46), Steve Nash (42), JR Smith (40).

DUDS: Mo Williams (13)

(1) Dirty Sanchez – 180.5 (2) 36DD – 224.0
  Rokers 36DD  
(8) Rokers – 237.5     (7) DaLoot – 211.0
  Rokers 36DD  
(4) Fore! – 186.0     (3) David Copperfield 152.5
  Fore! Royz Boyz  
(5) Captain Mo – 158.0 (6) Royz Boyz – 196.5

Round #1 Complete

03 Apr 2009 | : Recap

It is always fun to lose when you have the third highest score of the week.  Always fun.  DaLoot would have beat everyone with the exception of The Rokers (on fire!) and 36DD.  That is especially fun when Troy Murphy decided he wanted the night off.  In Murphy’s next game he had 29 fantasy points which would have been enough for DaLoot to win.

The Rokers are peaking at the right time.  It always helps to have “the best player from Spain” (Pau Gasol) go off for 58 fantasy points.  It also helps having a bench go off for 46.5 fantasy points. 

David Copperfield fell quicker than any team in Fantasy League history.  His 152.5 fantasy points is the story of the past month.  This includes The Sword (Baron Davis) scoring 36 fantasy points. 

LeBron James (David Copperfield), Mrs. Carmela Anthony (DaLoot), Dwight Howard (Dirty Sanchez) and Kobe Bryant (Captain Mo) are all out in the first round. 

Studs: Paul Gasol (58), Mrs. Carmela Anthony (56)

Duds: Troy Murphy (dead), Stephen Jackson (dead), Corey Maggette (dead), Chauncey Billups (16), (Nate Robinson (13), Jeff Green (19)
