Nels wins our Experts League!
Posted by Alvin Lai Categories: Disses, H2H, Props, Site Announcements
Nels from Give Me The Rock is the winner of our 2nd Experts League. He threw a little diss at us in his season recap on his site, but he’s right in saying that having knowledge about the NBA and being good at the fantasy game are two different things. I find most of these industry leagues focus on the draft. I definitely put way more energy in my leagues against family and friends. Funny that Nels writes he hates Chris Paul due to something that happened in another league, but in this league, CP3 was his anchor.

Tribute to Ron Chow and our Experts League Recap
Our second annual Dropping Dimes Experts League had its draft last night. Ron Chow and I are co-managing a team this year. What follows is a log of the draft from our perspective but something more important comes first.
Ron is taking a leave of absence from Dropping Dimes. One of the original four writers here, Ron will be missed. He was a regular contributor to our mock blog and during the season helped out with our rankings and wrote a feature called “Injury Impact.” He says it’s a break, but it feels like when a girl tells you that and it’s actually a break-up. So cheers to you, bro, and good luck with everything.

Dropping Dimes Mock Draft 2007: Round 5, Pick 1 - Antawn Jamison
Posted by Dennis Velasco Categories: Editorial, H2H, Injuries, Props, Roto, Site Features, Southeast Division, Washington Wizards, Talent
The Fig Cap: “WOO HOO! Patrick is writing about ME!”
GUEST BLOGGER: Patrick Madden from Give Me The Rock
“I don’t get no respect!! That’s the story of my life, no respect, ya know?”
Antawn Jamison: Olympics bronze medal winner, NBA Sixth Man of the Year, one time NBA All-Star.
It’s the perfect byline for a team’s second banana. Jamison is the Jackie Chan to Gilbert Arenas’ Chris Tucker. He’s Danny Glover’s Roger Murtaugh to Mel Gibson’s Martin Riggs. If the Wizards were the Jackson Five, Jamison would be Jermaine Jackson. If they were an 80’s television show, Jamison would be Ricardo Tubbs.
You get the idea, I hope. Agent Zero gets the accolades, the media attention, the awards, the swag, the NBA 08 Live video game cover, the million dollar birthday parties, the blog, the professional Halo team, and the Hibachi. Even Jamison’s catch phrase seems like the boy wonder version of Arenas’. According to the Washington Post, Jamison calls out “Fiji” after every jump shot he makes. Ah, you might want to stop that immediately Antawn.
Round 5, Pick 1: Antawn Jamison, SF/PF, Washington Wizards
