Week 6 review - Week 7 preview
Headline of the week: "Gutter-bowlers Habib and Gameday edge first wins in 3 weeks. How bad must their opponents have been?"
Game Count:
GameDay v Aegis: Even
Troopers v McLovin: Troopers +2 Matchup of the week
L-view v Obiwon: Obiwon +1
Habib v Luucious: Habib +4
Sweep v Russell: Sweep +1
Me#1 v BBB: Even
Predictions:
GameDay over Aegis: Injuries are healed, Gameday is full strength minus Arenas.
McLovin over Troopers: Troopers has key injuries to S.Jackson and G. Wallace.
L-view over Obiwon: K-Mart x 2 are out. Obi is critically injured.
Habib over Luucious: Habib has avoided the trifecta and Luucious is missing Boozer/Mcgrady/Marbury.
Sweep - Russell: DRAW - I'm not sure how it'll go. The two strongest/healthiest teams in our league. If it's a big win/loss it'll be by just a few points in each category.
Me#1 over BBB: It's a stretch picking Loren, but Boston only plays 2 games this week. Little production from Pierce/Garnett.
Key Scheduling: 2 game teams are Celts and Nuggets.
MATCHUP OF THE WEEK: McLovin v. Troopers.
I wanted to do a tribute to this matchup which has stood the test of 4 years. For these two teams this week is not just another Win/Loss, but rather a testament to years of trash-talk and rivalry. In 4 previous Head-2-Head matchups Troopers leads the matchups 3-1. The total score shows a closer story though: 24-19. The question is whether McLovin's hot rookies can continue their streaks, and if the injuries to Troopers clan is enough to open the door for Mclovin to close the all-time win/loss record between him and Troopers. Key player matchups: C. Paul v. D. Williams. Paul plays 4 games to Williams' 3. X-factors include: Westbrook/Marion/Camby from McLovin's camp. Camby has been a machine, in order for McLovin to out-do Troopers' big men, Camby has to stay true to form. Westbrook is coming off a hot week, can he continue? and Marion is finding a mediocre form in Miami, can he pick up his play to justify his 5th pick overall?
That's it - I will post an update to this blog later in the week to follow this historic Matchup.
Thanks for reading and keep posting,

Week 5 review - Week 6 Preview
Headline of the week: "They Shall Call Me#1 claims first much needed win. Aegis Fang continues to slide."
Game Count:
Game Day v. McLovin: 44-43 GD+1
Troopers v. Obiwon: 37 - 50 Obi +13
L-view v. Luucious: 40 -42 Luucious +2
Habib v. BBB: BBB +3
Aegis v. Russell: Russell +2
Sweep v. Me#1: Even
Predictions:
Game Day over McLovin: on principle.
Obiwon over Troopers: Too much game count differential. Troopers suffering from injuries.
L-view over Luucious: Luucious suffering from injuries, Hou only plays twice.
Habib over BBB: Predicting first "W" for Habib. Injuries are curbing.
Russell over Aegis: Aegis has too many injuries, even though Russell has some too, Aegis' are too significant.
Me#1 over Sweep: MATCHUP of the WEEK: I'm predicting Loren follows up with another win, it's going to be a small one, but a win nonetheless.
NBA Schedule: Note Kings and Rockets only play twice this week.
Trade Discussion:
Ron Artest/Adam Morrisson for Bargnani/Duhon:
Immediate value has Loren winning this trade. My prediction is that Artest picks it up, with T-Mac moving from 1 injury to the next, and that Bargnani falls off his hot streak pretty sharply in the next couple weeks. Adam Morrisson sux, and Duhon is probably the best addition from this trade. 22 assists in one game, Duhon is poised to be a top assist man in the league. Only about 8 players averaged over 7 assists a game last season. Duhon could be next.
Administrative details: I have changed the veto period to 1 day, in the hopes that it will expedite the trade moving dates. I'm not sure that this will work. Weekly moves has been increased from 3 to 4. This will remain at 4 for the remainder of the season. Changes and adjustments can be addressed at the end of the season for next year. The trade timeline will continue to be adjusted until it's about 1 day for veto/2 days before moving.
