On the other hand, Ben Gordon's pick-up isn't really working yet, and I should've stuck with Prince among the available Detroit players at the time.

 Re: NBA Fantasy League 2009: Still a two man duel
Friday's poor performance killed me.

 Re: NBA Fantasy League 2009: Still a two man duel
Looks like 5 playoffs spots are locked in only 3 more to go. Hope I can keep my 4th seed or possibly move up a little.

 Re: NBA Fantasy League 2009: Still a two man duel
Only 6 teams qualify for the playoff, and Stew has a big lead over Levy. Without them playing each other this week, the field looks to be set.

 Re: NBA Fantasy League 2009: Still a two man duel
Levy hasn't set his lineup for several weeks already, Stew definitely is in. Big battle between xiayun and me to see who gets the #1 spot of regular season, game on!

 Re: NBA Fantasy League 2009: Still a two man duel
Not going to win this week with injury to Joe Johnson and Rose; probably will lose 2-10. The good thing is it's better to be this week than next. Just need to get the players back and be ready for the playoff.

 Re: NBA Fantasy League 2009: Still a two man duel
Great got the playoff tiebreaker against xiayun. In case I do end up facing him either in Finals or consolation round, I would definitely need the playoff tiebreaker especially since it looks like xiayun's players now are back and healthy.
For first round, even though both Passionate Thug and Floydboy will make tough second opponents for me, I will be rooting for Floydboy to make it to second round. Passionate Thug totally dominated me in our two previous matchups, while Floydboy and I split our previous two matchups though I should have the playoff tiebreaker against him if we go 6-6.

 Re: NBA Fantasy League 2009: Still a two man duel
This year has been interesting ... some of my top picks have definitely not panned out and I passed up some decent trades for them (whoever was going to trade me Jamal Crawford for Noah ... Grrrr @ me). So I lost Noah, Randolph and obviously Arenas.
O well. I'm actually surprised that I did this well.

 Re: NBA Fantasy League 2009: Still a two man duel
Looks like me an Floydboy will end up tied this week, how does the tie breaker work? I beat him both times head to head during the regular season, does that give me the win?

From Yahoo: Quote: In the event that a playoff game ends in a tie, the deadlock is broken using the following system:
1. Winning percentage against this opponent during the regular season. 2. Playoff seed.
So yes, you'll advance.

 Re: NBA Fantasy League 2009: Still a two man duel
This is going to be a good matchup. My players have been rather inconsistent lately.

I was happy with the result a few weeks back  , but my team was hitting on high notes at the time, they have since come back down a bit, so yea it should be a good one. I just hope some of these used to be bench now they are starters cause the team sucks guys can still hold on for me

 Re: NBA Fantasy League 2009: Playoffs!
It's definitely a tight one. Finally a few of my stars rose to occasion on Friday, and hopefully with a full lineup tomorrow, I could turn a couple of categories around.

 Re: NBA Fantasy League 2009: Playoffs!
Joe Johnson not playing yesterday and Ariza's injury hurt somewhat, but at least Wade has given two superman efforts the last couple of games.

 Re: NBA Fantasy League 2009: Playoffs!
Glad I picked up Morrow at the last minute. His 5 3-pointers and 25 points made the difference.

We always seem to have the epic duels in the playoffs

 Re: NBA Fantasy League 2009: Playoffs!
Meh, 5th place. Not too bad. Could have tweaked it a little to try for 3rd or 4th, but not too bad considering the suspensions/injuries I had.

 Re: NBA Fantasy League 2009: Playoffs!
Hmm, I wish Yahoo would lift the can't-drop list since it's the last week. Joe Johnson will only play a couple of games, but I can't do anything about it.

 Re: NBA Fantasy League 2009: Playoffs!
It's going to be very hard for me to beat Alex. I knew from the beginning that I have to win the two percentage categories to even have a chance, but while .48 and .75 are acceptable by normal standard, Alex's team is shooting too well. And it's difficult to see where that 7th category could come from without sacrificing the ones I need to hold on.

 Re: NBA Fantasy League 2009: Playoffs!
well the last week is a long week so there is always a chance things could change stat wise especially when the star players only start playing 15-20-25 mins a game

 Re: NBA Fantasy League 2009: Playoffs!
It should still be a close one, a whole bunch of my players are shut-down candidates with nagging injuries, I just hope there are good enough waiver replacements if they sit out the rest of their games.
So glad to get the playoff tiebreaker against xiayun, I think I will definitely need it to have a chance to win against him.
