Headline of the week: "Ben Gordon ace, initiates Game Day collapse"

Weekly matchups:
Gameday v. Obiwon: Obi +9
Super Troop v. Luucious: Even Matchup of the Week
L-view vs. Habib: L-view +2
McLovin v. Russell: Russ +6
Aegis v. Me#1: Me#1 +1
Sweep v. BBB: Sweep +4

Injuries are running rampant, USATODAY.com reports 42 injuries to significant fantasy owned players.

There's plenty of injuries to go around, but some teams are sucking up more then others. Teams decimated by injuries include: GameDay, Habib, Aegis, BBB, and Me#1. Most other teams have injuries, these are the teams with 2 or more.

3 weeks into the season, we are starting to see the injuries take their tolls. GameDay, Habib, Aegis are rolling towards the gutter. What's your excuse Loren? These teams should begin considering if the injuries are worth hanging on to? Possibly trades can be negotiated to ease the load of missing stars.

TRADE DISCUSSION:

3 trades have been accepted so far:
Rudy Fernandez/LaMarcus Aldridge:Andreis Biedrins/Mike Conley
Fairly even, though if Rudy and LaMarcus step up, GameDay should end up the winner of this trade. Currently Biedrins outweighs the poor play from Aldridge enough that Luucious is getting the better end of the stick.

Mike Miller/Jason Thompson/Roger Mason:Daniel Gibson/Andre Iguodala/Tyson Chandler:
Though seemingly uneven on paper, O'toole assures me that Iguodala and Chandler will be stepping up their production to outweigh the value of Mike Miller and Roger Mason....we will see. Say hello to 3 TO/game from Iguodala. Loren don't think you're going to win TO's now...u still have Howard. HAHAHA

Michael Beesley/Mario Chalmers:Luke Ridnour/Marquis Daniels:
Game Day trades for MIA's rookies to ease his injury potential...freaking Ridnour. O'toole takes advantage and gets the consistent play from Marquis Daniels....(Dunleavy will never return). Chalmers is essentially shit baggage.

Matchup Analysis:

Game Day vs. Obi: Winner - Obiwon
Though Game Day is making moves to slowdown the loss of his players, those won't clear soon enough to avoid this whooping.

SuperTroopers v. Luucious: Winner - Luucious by 1
The most interesting matchup of this week. Expect it to be close with that chump Ben Gordon pulling a victory on the last day.

L-view Trailblazers v. Habib: Winner - L-view
Habib is suffering through his injuries, expect Stoudemire to add to the fun by completing the Injury Trifecta (Def: {noun} When your 1st 3 draft picks get injured. sample sentence: "Habib's fantasy team was decimated when inflicted by the dreaded Injury Trifecta.")

McLovin v. Russell: Winner - Russell
I like this match-up. McLovin is rolling from a 10-1 smashing of Loren, but Russell has been a competitive steady player so far, expect McLovin rookies to fall into a Thanksgiving Coma and sign over the week.

Aegis v. Me#1: Winner - Me#1
As bad as he's been he can't be that terrible. Aegis has too many injuries but Me#1 has Durant....I don't know who is worse, but Me#1 should be able to take this one home.

Sweep the leg v. BBB: Winner - Sweep
I'm going with our 2 week #1 team. Sorry BBB....I don't like the injured M. Redd, and Sweep has been playing well. Joe Johnson is back to lead the charge.


That's it, Thanks for reading post here or on the League page.
