I decided to pick up Tyson Chandler after his 3rd respectful game in a row(he had 20 rebounds in the last one). He didn't disappoint tonight, giving me 14 boards. I'll have to keep an eye on him, if he keeps playing well he could earn a permanent spot on my roster.

No one should give up at this point. There is still plenty of basketball left before playoffs and more than half of our teams will make the playoffs(6 out of 10).

Smithers, use the amnesia ray.
You mean the revolver, sir?
Precisely.

Just to give everybody an idea of how easily things can change take a look at my match with j.floetry this week.
After Friday's games I was up 6-3 for the week. However, one day later after Saturday's games he was up 6-2 for the week.
Who knows how the week will end for us after today's games...

Hey Eric, I've kinda noticed that you've had a couple of last day "suckouts"... where your opponent was ahead on Saturday (once it was me) NH sir.
Yeah I don't know what got into Chandler lately, but I'm glad to see he's kicking it in gear. I was big on him before the season started, but he was a bust early on.
I'm just glad my team is finally healthy, now I see my teams full potential. I got a big matchup with jjstokes this week, but I think he's a little scared to put down some extra dough on the matchup....

I think a lot of people resent him because of the Elton Brand trade with the Clips. His rebounding lately has been crazy, I hope he can keep it up.

Aww nutz spoke too soon!!! Brad Miller broke his finger!! They say he may only miss a couple weeks max, but I guess I still wont see my full team in action just yet...
I like my team a lot, but it still seems a little fragile to me, I can't let go of any players, they all play an important role. It's kinda nice to have an extra spot to rotate free agents in and out, but I don't really have one. But hey, I'm not complaining! My team is all lean muscle, no extra fat!
As far as Chandler goes, that dude has sick potential. I was expecting him to be putting up the numbers that Marcus Camby has been putting up from the get go. Let's see if he can keep it consistent... and good pickup on Bonzi, you beat me to him by like an hour...

I wanted Brad Miller on my team bad on draft day. I know his finger is hurt and he isn't a big shot blocker but I would still love to make some sort of trade for him. Let me know if anyone on my team interests you.
Today was a good day, 3 of my players were in the top 6 on espn:

Dropping him when he got hurt was hard to do but one hurt player on my roster(Amare Stoudemire) is enough. Fortunately I was able to get him back. I had a feeling he wouldn't last as a FA once he got healthy(even though it might take him another game or 2 to get his shot back).
It looks like you're crushing jjstokes, he's lucky he didn't take you up on the "let's make it interesting" bet.

bad beat bad beat!!! lol - jjstokes won, i guess he should have bet me! Good matchup; it was really close in the end. His team is pretty sick too....
I'll consider your offer Eric, i know for sure Chris Paul is catching my eye lately...
Man, I really want TJ Ford back... I drafted him pretty high. I dropped him when he got hurt hoping I could scoop him back up without any one noticing. Guess nothing gets by Tyson...
