Basketball Unlimited #1

This is the first time I have made a post with my basketball title blog on it. I hope the NBA brings back basketball games to watch on television. The more the lockout continues, the more the NBA loses money on ball games lost. I think the lockout is insane and I think the league should get over how much money the ball players are getting paid and just come to an agreement. As for my NBA fantasy team is going, I hope that my team will ultimately win the NBA title. Until then, I want to trade Jacque Vaughn and get a more competitive point guard than him.

NBA Fantasy Team #6

Hopefully this is the last time I will make a trade. I traded away Donta Smith for Kirk Synder. Instead of having athleticism, I decided to go for competitiveness. I got that in Synder. Kirk Synder is a competitor, warrior, and a fierce person. What I need from Synder is his scoring, defense, and overall all-around team spirit. He will play behind Steve Blake and Matt Barnes in the rotation. He will get fewer minutes behind Eduardo Najera and Wilson Chandler. Blake and Barnes are still my valuable reserves off the bench. Their instant scoring and solid defense will make Barnes and Blake key reserves from my bench. Najera still provides the all-out hustle plays and rebounds, as well as pesky defense for my squad. Wilson Chandler is still the above-average athlete he is. His ability to score and play outstanding defense will be key on my team. Ronny Turiaf is the energetic big man my team craves. His overall defense, rebounding, and shot blocking is what my team desires. Turiaf also gives my team desire to win. His passionate desire to win is key for my team. Shannon Brown is another terrific athlete whose contribution to my team will be instant shooting, solid defense, passing, rebounding, and some steals. Jacque Vaughn's veteran presence on and off the court is still valuable to this team. His professionalism and knowledge of the game will help him guide the reins of the team. He is by no means an outstanding scorer, but he gets the job done. He can score at will when he wants to. His defense is superb. You won't go wrong with Vaughn's defense. Earl Barron and D.J. Mbenga are my team's backup anchors in the middle. Their duties at center are to run the floor, play hard defense, and catch the ball to put it in the basket. Jeff Foster is my team's starting center. His ability to play defense and rebound are keys for my team to win. I won't question Foster's scoring. He can score when he can. Al Harrington and Mike Miller are my team's front court players. Harrington is a power forward who can run and stretch the floor with his three-point shooting. Mike Miller is a small forward who can play a bit of point guard and has very good ball handling skills for someone of his size. He can rebound, pass, and score with the ball at will. J.R. Smith is my team's go-to guy for scoring. There is no doubt in my team that Smith will be able to score with his slashing and penetration. Kirk Hinrich is my team's starting PG. He is an excellent ballhandler who can finish at the rim and relies on his jump shot to work all the time. He makes more jump shots than he does at layups to be honest with you. He should be able to make layups all the time, although on occasion he does miss.
