Daily blurb
Maybe I’m missing something, but it just doesn’t seem that anyone in the NBA is currently putting up numbers that make you want to force them into a current salary cap lineup. Andrew Bogut might be the hottest player right now, but Milwaukee only plays eight games in the next 20 days. Ditto for Amare Stoudemire and the Knicks. The sortable stats show that Kevin Love has the most projected points over the next 20 days (using 15-day averages). Chris Paul has one of the best pending schedules (11 games in 20 days), but his per-game output is just not where you’d expect it to be, barely topping the 40 RSCP/G for the past two weeks.

Other than Bogut, perhaps the surprise bargain in that projected list is Kevin Garnett, although his 15-day average of almost 40 RSCP/G is inflated by one game of 63, while most are in the mid-to-low 30s.
