Wire to Wire - 03.04.08
Posted by Scott Sargent Categories: Free Agency, H2H, Roto, Site Features, Waiver Pick Ups
Wire to Wire aims to be your waiver wire resource for all of your fantasy basketball needs. It will dive into playing time trends, injury replacements, and even an occasional category specialist—all of which can be found on a typical waiver wire within your fantasy league at any given time
While owners are frantically looking for the players who will go from unknown to fantasy playoff superstars in the matter of weeks (Walter Herrmann circa 2007), we have all been confronted with a bevy of superstar injuries. While the Gerald Wallace concussion hurts, no injury will likely impact the final weeks more than Houston’s Yao Ming calling it a season. The rotations have ironed themselves out, and we now know who needs to be added where. Hopefully your opponents have been asleep at the wheel as we have a ton of fantasy assets out there on the wire as we speak.

Stat’s All Folks: T-Mac Is Back!
Posted by Dennis Velasco Categories: Atlantic Division, Central Division, H2H, Northwest Division, Pacific Division, Props, Roto, Site Features, Southeast Division, Southwest Division, Talent, Waiver Pick Ups
Stat’s All Folks will be a week-to-week stock market look at the standard cumulative categories – points, assists, rebounds, three-pointers made, steals, and blocks. I’ll be calling out the “bulls” and “bears” in each category, in order to help you assess your portfolio of players on your fantasy basketball team(s) and whether you should sell, hold, and/or diversify your assets.
Note that you won’t always see the superstar player written about in this column, otherwise it would be LeBron James or Steve Nash every week. So, check out who’s bullish and who’s bearish coming into the week.
Statistics are from December 28th – January 3rd.
POINTSBULLISH
Tracy McGrady, SG/SF, Houston Rockets
Last Week’s Numbers of Note: 3 G; 33.3 PPG; 56.5 FG%; 55.6 FT%
In the past week, McGrady has been playing like the T-Mac of old and not like an old T-Mac. In each of his three games, McGrady has scored 31, 38, and 31 points, respectively. And it hasn’t even been a fluke sort of deal where he just jacked up forty or more shots to get his points. Look at the field goal percentage above too. Taking 23 shot attempts per game on average is a lot, but again, look at that percentage from the floor! No wonder McGrady’s been scoring so much and it speaks well for his health as well, being able to hit that many baskets at a high rate. I won’t declare him “back” because of the lingering prospect of back spasms that sidelined T-Mac earlier this season, so throw out some feeler deals for more durable players. Otherwise, hold T-Mac and hope he stays healthy.
