10 Nights to Go....

Well, here I am again...back to back nights blogging...man, I should get a hobby or exercise or something...

Anyways, some movement tonight on the big board...

Juan jumps up +13 points in FG% as Brandon Knight and Tyson Chandler combined to shoot 20/22 tonight. Seriously. That's ridiculous.

French dropped -33 pts tonight as Juan passed him in FG% and Yuma passed him in PTS. French and Juan are both shooting 46.0% and must be just percentage points apart. Yuma got 43 points from Paul Pierce tonight to spur the charge. Yuma is still without Kobe so I'm not sure he'll be able to score with French the rest of the period. Overall, French's 3 players averaged over 21ppg again tonight (thanks to Carmelo's triple double in the Gawden)

MBB passed Brussels in 3PT% dropping Timbo's squad back to 184 points and now sits 16 points below the Kai line.

Detroit crushed Cleveland tonight and the score at one point was actually 100-50. Crazy. Antawn Jamison dropped a 0/10 and 0/4 night. Well done.

Granger and Iguodala had big nights tonight. Both Idaho and Montreal could play spoiler in the 3PT% category with hot nights like this from their rosters.

Rudy Gay went off for 28 and 9 in Idaho. Again, I think Idaho's late season numbers are actually quite impressive and I have taken note as I prepare for the off season power rankings.

Also, JJ Barea went crazy for the T-Wolves and for Yuma tonight. He's been pretty impressive lately and Golden is a big fan of any Yuma player scoring points right now. If Yuma could stay ahead of French in PTS that would be HUGE for the Golden squad.

As I type this Tony Parker has 29 and 13 on 14/20 shooting vs. the Lakers tonight. The only bright light remaining for Bangkok this season.

I have also compiled my list of top 20 keepers for next season....
I tried to come up with a list of 10 but wound up with 20 guys on my list. I tried to figure out who was the most undervalued based on what I think they will do next season. Lots of factors to consider as well. Take Andrew Bynum...the consensus #1 keeper by most JBL owners. But does that change at all if he's traded this summer to Orlando? Or what about Ilyasova - he's a top keeper but he's a Free Agent and could end up away from Scott Skiles - which could actually increase his value. So, with some of these factors in mind I came up with a list of 20 guys I like for next season and then ranked them 1 to 20. Did I miss some guys? Probably. I didn't do it on purpose so don't get your knickers in a twist if you don't see your guy on here. If you want to make a list - get your own blog :)

So....I'll wrap up this post and start a new one for the top 20 keeper list...stay tuned....
