Posting Schedule – I’m going to be out for 10 days starting Thursday, February 3rd.  I’ll be back posting full time on Monday, February 14.  I’ve had enough snow and winter and I’m headed out of here on a cruise with my wife to celebrate our 16th anniversary.

Paul George (IND) – I put out a note on George a few days ago advising to pick him up and now that the Pacers have fired Jim O’Brien, I think George is even more of a must add.  He’s going to get a shot in the second half as the Pacers try to figure out what they have in him.

Carlos Boozer (CHI) – Boozer finally seems to be healthy and is a must start in daily leagues, 24pts/10reb.

Roy Hibbert (IND) – Getting close to rock bottom value.  If you want to gamble on Hibbert for next season in keeper leagues, now is the time to pull the trigger on a trade, 2pts/5reb.

Andrea Bargnani (TOR) – Couldn’t find the basket last night, 5 of 24 shooting for 15 points.

DeMar DeRozan (TOR) – Had the same problem as Bargnani, 2 of 11 for 6 points.

Fantasy News and Notes for Friday’s Fantasy NBA Action:

Brook Lopez (NJN) – The process is now complete, Lopez has fully morphed into Andrea Bargnani.  28 points on 12 of 17 shooting and just a single rebound.  How does someone of Lopez’ size grab only a single rebound?
