The Adventures of a Fantasy Basketball Novice—Week 5 recap
December 10, 2010 by Tony Andracki
Filed under Basketball, Featured
Week 5 in Fantasy Basketball was overall pretty kind to me. I won my matchup in each of my leagues against a tough opponent and clawed my way towards first place. Not there yet, obviously, but a step in the right direction, of course. Lessons Learned I didn’t make any mistakes this week. I was [...]

Week 3 in Fantasy Basketball came and passed, and I must say, I’m starting to get the hang of this whole thing. My teams didn’t necessarily reflect it, but I’m getting a better feel for it all and I’m learning the players and the game so much more. Prior to this season, I couldn’t name [...]

Well, it was my first ever week in fantasy basketball and boy was it an interesting one. It was an extended week because of the early start for some teams, and that both helped and hurt me, as I’m sure it did to many of you out there. Throughout the first week, I learned many [...]

The NBA season has started and I must say, my Bulls are looking pretty good. My fantasy teams on the other hand, not so great right now. I’m a combined 7-12-3 after the first week, but luckily, the matchup doesn’t end until Nov. 7, so I have some time to rebound, pun intended (I’m currently [...]
Los Angeles Lakers Rally Late to Top Warriors

It wasn’t pretty from start, until the last 2 minutes of the 4th quarter. Then, it got entertaining. Shannon Brown, easily the most consistent and efficient Laker of the preseason, knocked down a key 3 to force overtime. But wait, there’s more. After Kobe Bryant sat down, Brown knocked down another go-ahead 3 pointer in [...]

The ever consistent Laker Pau Gasol finished with 23 points on a solid 8-13 shooting as Los Angeles dismantled the Golden State Warriors tonight, 120-99. Lamar Odom, despite his poor shooting percentage, chipped in with 16 points and 12 rebounds. Steve Blake also contributed with 18 points off the bench in his best preseason performance. [...]
Lakers Fall Short in Rematch Against Utah
October 20, 2010 by TachyonSerj
Filed under MLB
From the opening tip, the Los Angeles Lakers offense was out of sync to put it lightly. Instead of the ball movement that is so characteristic of Phil Jackson’s triangle offense, many possessions ended in ill-advised isolation plays against a decent Utah Jazz defense (what else can we expect from Jerry Sloan’s team, eh?). The [...]
