Guys, this is going to be fun. There’s so many streams, so many ways to look smart and win your leagues. Pay attention to the storylines, find “injury” replacements, and hope your favorite bad team doesn’t get fined 100 grand for sitting players is the name of the rest of the season. Hornets: They have […]

Wow, that deadline was incredibly fun. If you’re like me, and off work on Thursday due to snow on Saturday (gotta love NC!) you activated the old Shams notifications and were suitably entertained with deals and thoughts of deals. And of course, the fallout. Who’s going to be gaining minutes? Losing? Let’s shovel off some […]

I hope all you guys fared well in the winter storm. My gosh, I hate ice storms. We were lucky in Eastern NC to just have a cold disgusting rain, but could have been much worse. You know who can’t be much worse? The… Pacers Jay Huff played 3 minutes against the Hawks. Three. Insanely […]

Off to the West! And just a quick reminder, don’t go nuts over exhibition games. It’s not a real competition. So, maybe it’s just for confirmation bias? Golden State Warriors: The center position is the competition. Al Horford will take his walker up and down the court to start games, based on their practice runs. […]

Chicago: Josh Giddey is rapidly falling out of favor with Chicago and if you can get something for him, I would try to do that thing. He’s not closing games even though he’s starting them. Against Milwaukee he totaled 24 minutes and did very little except get called out by Doris Burke for lack of […]

Oh my gosh. When I went to Jay, our fearless leader, and had the idea to discuss rotations, I didn’t know there would be a 35% increase in injuries from last year, which seemed high anyway. There’s a new one every night and everyone has theories why. I am not nearly smart enough for a theory […]

One theme this season is the amount of teams with 10 man or deeper rotations. Pace in the league is up. 3 pointers are flying. And all that running and shooting makes people more and more tired and also more and more injury prone. So there’s an inordinate amount in the early going of rotations […]

If you’re still reading these, and I’m glad you are, as it means one of three things.
You’re still in the playoff race
You love my writing, in which case you’re my mom or you need to read a lot more good articles.
You’re out of it and trying to get a leg up for next year.
As we know, this is the silly season for basketball. Resting, tanking, and weird rotations are the norm in March. It’s March Madness, baby. I’m going to try to focus on the weird rotations thing from each game to see if we can decipher any meaning from said weird rotations.

JokerSmoker and PB and G have a 7 game lead over everyone else. They also at the top in number of transactions in the league. Not all work out, but these two have just done a great job all year. Well, of course, JokerSmoker took the big fat L last week to yours truly!

I watched the stupid Bulls lose to the stupid Pacers last night and am in a bad mood. So in honor of my bad mood and in an effort to put myself through self therapy, all of my takes in the recap are going to be people to move off of or avoid altogether. Seriously, blowing a 21 point lead to the Pacers without Tyrese Haliburton…
