First time in a month and a half that I had him on my roster and now he's out for a few days. Ugh

Kidd SUCKS (inevitable)

I plan on getting Kidd as well, swapping the Senator's new favorite player for his all-timer.

Except for his disastrous first week I've gotten great use out of Tyreke. I think I've had him on at least one team for every game but one since Week 4.

I've never wasted so many trades on a single player than I have with Tyreke this season. If I had never bought him once, I'd probably have about eight more trades and a couple hundred more points. Easily the disaster of the season, with the runner up possibly being Baron Davis for excellence not only in the field of under-performance but also in injuring other players I own. He's a multi-threat!

Tyreke, GW, and Camby have been a menace this year as when I own them they tank or get injured and when I do not they go off.

Basically all of the Clippers this year have been unstoppable disasters. I've historically been a fan of always buying Camby at all costs, but this year, man.

I wonder how much salt Collison is going to rub into our collective wound tonight.

SU, you must have incredibly bad timing with Tyreke. On my best team I bought him Week 4, held him for over a month in spite of what turned out to be a harmless DNP, sold him when he had a real injury that was near a schedule gap anyway, bought him back Jan. 5 for a 56.5 game that almost no one else had and held him for more than 6 weeks.

If Salary Cap games continue, Tyreke is going to be such a monster that he'll be must own whenever he has a schedule so you'd better get used to him.

One of my lesser teams bought Curry after being alerted that he was "Probable" by Don Best (I checked the Yahoo lineups for confirmation). Don Best is turning out to be a good source for last minute information.

Tyreke reminds me of Camby.

Nobody reminds me of Camby. We saw what happened to Tyreke and we know that Gerald Wallace just gets hurt a lot. Camby's "injuries" are usually vague.

With Camby and Crash I usually like to have them only if I know a lot of others will. I had Crash as a differential pick on a couple of teams when he had his most recent injury so it was a killer. Hopefully Camby's days as a big minute player are almost over.

Im the opposite, I prefer to have them all to myself, so it wont cost too much if I get stuck with them.

So I've hitched my wagon to Dirk. Needless to say I'm checking out for the night. Felt like I couldn't take the risk of Lee not playing, and the other options from tomorrow didn't work nearly as well with my plan. If Lee ended up being out I would have thrown a game away for nothing.

My biggest mistake of the season was getting Dirk over Lee right before the ASB. That was the beginning of my downfall. Hoping Dirk finally does something for me by completely sucking. Holding Lee.

I have a feeling I'll regret it. Dirk has been good lately though at least, all of his averages are over 40 so I figured I had to take the chance since he by far worked better than anyone else. Hopefully the effects of Landry's teeth are finally gone. Good luck regardless, this is going to be a stressful finish even though I'm trying to have fun with it, I bet it comes down to the last night.

I was actually a little short on melo or dirk. If I could have afforded them I probably would have got one of them. At least there was a positive report on Lee. If he is out there are options tomorrow. Good luck to you to SU.

Wow, that is a bad night. I feel for you. At least Bogut and Boozer are widely owned and West and Iggy are at sell points.

I got home not long ago and I'm actually thrilled about Boozer. When I looked at the box score I figured he had to be hurt. Just not getting hurt is enough for the most owned player when I have only 1 trade.

Somebody BOUGHT Tyreke today. I swear that someone out there is aiming for lowest RV, unless it counts my briefly rebuying him on one team because I changed who I wanted from him.
