Dropping Dimes One-on-One Tourney: THE FINALS!
Posted by Alvin Lai Categories: Site Features, Talent
It is so sweet that KG is now a Celtic. Not that I am a fan of Boston teams, but it just gives me an excuse to post a classic Bird and Magic photo. Our finals pit a (current) Laker and a Celtic. It’s a good one, people! Dropping Dimes just turned one year old, and we couldn’t have handpicked a better match-up to close our one-on-one tourney!

Dropping Dimes One-On-One Tourney: Round 1, Games 1 and 2
Posted by Alvin Lai Categories: Site Features, Cleveland Cavaliers, Washington Wizards, Denver Nuggets, Los Angeles Lakers
The fantasy basketball season has wrapped up and the real playoffs have started. That is enough to satisfy any NBA hoophead, but playoff pool action is not nearly as prevalent as regular season play. Furthermore, although the all-star game offers fifteen minutes of spotlight every year to the three-point shooting contest, and while the dunk contest has offered some drama over the years, the festivities always fall short of the hype. After all, the skills challenge gets props for being the only event that can attract the biggest stars (Lebron, Kobe, Nash and Chris Paul this year), but it hardly satisfies our appetites for seeing the best go against the best.
NBA players would never agree to a one-on-one tournament; the risk of injury and loss of pride would be too great. That does not prevent us from talking about it though. It would be the coolest event ever. If only we could rewind the clock and have the likes of Magic and Michael settle things on the court for real. This brings us to our latest Dropping Dimes feature, designed to bridge the gap between the end of this season and the end of the dogs of summer!

It is time again to take a look at the young stars of the NBA and their fantasy potential. Here we pit a frosh against a sophomore and a junior. Why no senior, you ask? The class of 2003 has already distinguished itself: Lebron James, Carmelo Anthony, Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh, etc. It seems unfair to pit Flash against a rookie. Staying on point, 3-2-1 Impact features three players who hold down the point guard position.

DroppingDimes’ Position Rankings: Point Guards

Though seemingly very deep, this year’s fantasy drafts could easily see four point guards go off the board within the first 12 selections. The top tier of this season’s point guard class is obviously one that not only drops dimes at will, but also dominates in another category or two (whether they be scoring buckets, swiping rocks, or draining three-balls). This breakdown should not only give an idea as to what to expect from the top point men this season, but also to show that if you aren’t lucky enough to land one of the top five, your team will be sufficiently staffed with any of the top 25 mentioned here. We’re also starting to see an emergence of a “Point Guard by Committee” on a few teams, which may hurt the value of a few guys.
Without further ado, your 2006 fantasy basketball point guards.
