Any chance you'll be there for LA-GS?<br /><br />I dislike picking Howard as well, but I also enjoy making a spash with odd picks early on (see Isaiah Thomas' 37 on day 1 last year). Didn't quite work out this year, but I figured most would choose a Rocket and that that game would be over by the half. Without Curry seems to be a good spot for Howard. As good as any for that waste of space, anyway.mfari031https://www.blogger.com/profile/14122921477673646156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2794801666266415731.post-57240357469878941332016-04-21T11:04:41.195-07:002016-04-21T11:04:41.195-07:00Yikes.

If Barea is out again, check out the status of Deron Williams. If he also isn't good to go, Raymond Felton instantly becomes Dallas' focus of the offense. He could be good.Tangenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09826659197813804563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2794801666266415731.post-84989087581040413032016-04-21T10:40:46.720-07:002016-04-21T10:40:46.720-07:00Tangent, you think Ariza or Dirk for me today?

That definitely makes things easy for picking players on teams you expect to lose, but challenging that so many player's time might be up very soon.<br /><br />The next three days for me are Howard, Jackson, and Lillard. I think Jackson and Lillard are in for big games in critical games back at home. Howard is a forced pick, but with Curry still questionable and it being in Houston, I'm good with it.<br /><br />Starting Sunday, things get murky. Depending on which team is facing elimination (of any team), the options for me will be Tobias Harris and Isaiah Thomas. Then on Monday, it's one of Kemba Walker or CJ McCollum, with also Al Jefferson to consider. A lot of options, and not much time to use them. Should be fun thinking through all the possibilities!Tangenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09826659197813804563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2794801666266415731.post-1891268631478469482016-04-21T10:03:45.647-07:002016-04-21T10:03:45.647-07:00Well in that case he won't be limited because ...Well in that case he won't be limited because they won't be leading, lol.

No other choice though, no one appeals to me from Dallas and I'm not ready to pick from Indy-Toronto yet. Still think Toronto wins this, and I want to pick PG13 on a night that I can't watch. It's mental torture to have an interest in a player going against my Raps.mfari031https://www.blogger.com/profile/14122921477673646156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2794801666266415731.post-77722720694533492022016-04-20T22:04:34.684-07:002016-04-20T22:04:34.684-07:00Wished Kamba would be a little unselfish.
