Ranting Thread 

Post#1 » by Bank Shot » Thu Jan 5, 2012 5:51 am

I figure since half the league is out of shape and a ton of guys are either hurt or under performing, a lot of people aren't too happy with some of their guys right now.

I've been lucky enough to ignore the injury bug so far (knock on wood) but I just wanted to say:

**** Josh Smith. Stop taking 21 foot jumpers and take it to the hole. I have no idea why the guy would get in amazing shape if all he's going to do is get his Andray Blatche on.

How could you trade Love and Dwight for him? I mean, in a league full of guards, those two big men are almost priceless, imho. I'd love to add Dwight to my roster...

**** Joe Johnson: please don't miss 14 out of 17 shots next time!

Danny Granger by far. Not only is he killing his fantasy value with his chucking, he's hurting the Pacers by not flowing in the system at all.

Dorrell Wright. Nuff said. (although it's a good thing I didn't draft him in any of my leagues)

But Andray Blatche. Dude should spend more time in the gym than on twitter. He is stinkin' it up big time.

Ginobili and Lopez on one team. GInobili and Randolph on the other. Ouch.

I'm in a 20 teamer so I have some legitimate scrubs on my team but I was really expecting more out of both Vince and Haywood who have both produced in limited minutes but can't seem to convince Rick Carslile of their worth no matter how well they play :lol:

Brandon Rush was also a bit of a headache when I owned him (I dropped him yesterday and go figure, he's finally having another good game), but that's more on Mark Jackson having no idea what his rotation is going to be than anything else...

Ginobili, Z-Bo, Eric Gordon and Kidd on my team. Plus Cousins who could have potentially missed more time or been traded. Wooohooo!

How ironic is it that this is happening to a Blazer fan?
