Here is a look at the Fantasy Basketball Rankings: End of Year 2010.  These are the rankings for players at the end of the season after all of the games are played.  This does not include playoff performances.  This is strictly how they finished the season and not how they will be ranked at the beginning of next year.  It will however give you an option to look at when trying to decide if a certain player is worth taking in your draft next year at the current level your league has him ranked.

Here is a list of the top 100 NBA players in terms of fantasy basketball.  I’ve asked two colleagues of mine to rank them along with me.  Hopefully this can be of some help to you.  Now, as the season nears, the rankings will most likely change so keep checking back for more updates.  BC= Brandon Craver, SH= Steve Hampton and TJ= Terrance Jackson.

I’m about to sit down and watch game one of the NBA Championship between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Orlando Magic. Now, there are plenty of questions that will be fun to see being answered during this series. Can Andrew Bynum, Lamar Odom or Pau Gasol (or all three together) stop Dwight Howard from dominating the paint? Can the Magic hit the 3 when the Lakers collapse on Howard? Will Jameer Nelson play? How will the Magic stop Kobe Bryant? That answer is simple, you can’t stop Kobe but can they slow him down?

I know most people wanted to see LeBron James take on Kobe but there are so many things to watch for in this match-up that it should be a very interesting series. I’ll be honest, after seeing LeBron snub the Magic during post game handshakes, my opinion of him has soured a bit. I understand it in a way when it comes to the media but you just don’t do that to the opposing team. But, that’s a whole different story. Read the rest of this entry »

Let’s take a look at some of the players that will have a serious chance at improving in the second half of the season. This is going to be a list compiled of players that have been underachieving, injured or will be starting or seeing more minutes in the second half. i’m not going to talk about players that had great first halves and will continue to do so because we already know that Kobe and LeBron are studs and they will continue to be studs.

Ramon Sessions- If you haven’t noticed by now, I am a huge Ramon Sessions fan. With Luke Rinour out for a few more weeks with a broken thumb, Sessions is in prime position to steal the starting PG role away from Ridnour. Even if Ridnour returns as the starting PG, Sessions will have a spot at SG waiting for him and Charlie Bell will go back to the bench. Sessions has not disappointed so far and it doesn’t look like he will anytime soon either. As a starter he is averaging 18.3 ppg, 4 rpg, 7.8 apg and 1.9 spg. He is a fantasy savior in the making. Everyone thought that he would be doing this from the start of the season but Ridnour showed that he could still play and Sessions didn’t really impress anyone. Not the case anymore. Sessions is a solid option in any format as a PG or as a SG but he does seem to play better as the floor general. Read the rest of this entry »
