Dropping Dimes Staff Week Seven Position Rankings

Steve NashWell, there’s a lot going on with the Dropping Dimes team, so it looks like there won’t be enough diversity in the rankings with myself and Sarge being the only ones able to drop rankings.  But, have no fear, we’re still the best fantasy basketball team out there (along with the fine folks at Give Me The Rock), so peep the rankings for Week Seven, but first check the number of games for each team.  Word.

Dropping Dimes’ Position Rankings: Power Forwards

Posted by Dennis Velasco Categories: Editorial, H2H, Roto, Site Features

KG Over DirkFantasy basketball owners want their power forwards to be like the Wu - rough, rugged, and raw - bringing the pain every night they take the floor.  We don’t need them to shoot bombs from beyond the arc necessarily, but we want them to be like foot soldiers down in the box doing damage on the boards, getting putbacks, blocking shots into the stands, and coming strong.  Basically, they need to be the strong arm of fantasy basketball teams.

Jason Terry Round 4, Pick 9: Jason Terry, PG, Dallas Mavericks

With the forward positions taken care of in a very nice fashion (Garnett and Lewis), along with a solid all-around center in Rasheed Wallace, I decided that it was time to tackle one of the guard positions.  Jason Terry may not lead the league in any categories, might not have a shoe you’ll recognize from the sidewalk, or even make an appearance on MTV’s Cribs… but you know what he does have? 

Three words:  Nationally.  Televised.  Games.

The Big Z down lowRound 4, Pick 8: Zydrunas Ilgauskas, C, Cleveland Cavaliers

Zydrunas Ilgauskas is part of a dying breed – the big man with a back-to-the-basket game.  And Ilgauskas is a European nonetheless!  Yes, not all European big men shoot J’s on the regular like Dirk Nowitzki.  Actually, it doesn’t matter if one is European because no one is like Nowitzki.  But, this isn’t about a goatee-wearing, deadly from anywhere on the floor, David Hasselhoff loving Maverick.  It’s about Ilgauskas, a 7’3”, hairline receding, have to double check the spelling of his name player who can score a number of ways down in the box as well as from mid-range when the occassion arises.  And it’s this last point that should have you interested in drafting the Cavaliers’ resident center.
