PPR league

Anthony Davis is the first player EVERY to have 26 points, 17 rebs, 9 blks, and 3 Pregame chili cheeseburgers from Cooter Brown's.
Jimmer is here to clinch the free fries for everyone.
Its the Pels way to get the new guy over with the crowd.
I've had Ingram locked into that spot all week, but Yahoo has him with the lowest projected points out of the three.
Its kinda throwing me off.
not sure if i was just being a homer wanting to go with Ingram.

RB2? Ingram - Richardson - Ridley

Who should i start?

Mark Ingram, Trent Richardson, or Stevan Ridley?

14-team PPR league.
1pt per carry/reception
1pt per 10 yrds
6pt per TD

One often overlooked factor in message board trade proposals: Both teams would have to agree on the trade.

SVG's name is being thrown around. I like the idea of bringing him in, but what about Jeff Van Gundy?

He's available, and I think he's a better coach.
I'm somewhere between a lurker and a regular.

I voted Parrish as well.

"Pistol" would have easily won my vote had it been available.

this is wrong. Benson DGAF right now and is spending money. What more could you want out of him? Chouest was more likely to penny pinch and there was always the small possibility of relocating with him


I agree about Benson spending money like its nobody's business... his days are numbered and he's spending his money... which is awesome for us.

but Chouest isn't going anywhere. He's a DTB guy, born and raised. His company is a DTB company.
Its not like he can relocate his billion dollar offshore company to Seattle or Kansas City.
I hated him until he took ownership of the Hornets/Pelicans.
The Hurricane Katrina season fiasco was hard to forget about.

as far as him being the best possible owner for the Pelicans... ehhh, I don't know.
I really like that he brought in Loomis to work salary cap magic, but Gary Chouest was my first choice.
He's a basketball guy. His kids are all basketball people. Its a basketball family with tons of money. Gotta love that.
anytime i see a trade thread, first thing i do is look at the post count of the OP.

...amazingly, its always under 20.

c'mon now...

we're just a little late to the party. we're not developmental league.

how about all the dudes who stay active all season in both leagues start a super-active league next year?

I work with a lot of young kids as a shooting coach.
Jump shots and free throws are two totally different animals.
A lot of kids shoot them the same way, which is a problem. Jump shots come from the legs. For free-throws, you gotta adjust to the lack of legs and use a little more arm strength.

Concentration is also a big problem.

Free-throw issues are a very fixable problem (unless your hands are so big its like you're throwing a tennis ball at the goal... like Shaq).
There's no reason shooting guards and point guards should be anywhere south of 80% FT.
