Fantasy Basketball Daily Boxscore Review (11/10/09)
Nov 10, 2009 Blog
Some very high scoring games last night which was a bit surprising. The pace on five of the six games was 96 possessions, with the MIN/GSW game having 110. The eFG% in all the games was excellent, sending each of them to a high total. I’ve seen some speculation that the new rims are causing a jump in scoring, but I’m not buying that as the cause of excellent eFG% numbers. I’d say it’s more just very poor defense.
Fantasy Studs: Devin Brown, Chris Paul, Stephen Jackson, Kelenna Azubuike, Richard Jefferson, Manu Ginobili, Chris Bosh, Wilson Chandler, Andrei Kirilenko, Carlos Boozer, Steve Nash, Jason Richardson
Fantasy Duds: Emeka Okafor, Al Thornton, Mikki Moore, Stephen Curry, DeJuan Blair, DeMar DeRozan, Danilo Gallinari, David Lee, Chris Duhon, Channing Frye, Elton Brand
PHO 119 @ PHI 115 Poss: 96 PHO ORtg: 124.0 PHI ORtg: 119.8

PHI: eFG% 56.7 OReb% 27.0 DReb% 82.9 TO% 11.4 FTR 32.9
Game Notes: Steal Percentage: PHO 4.1% – PHI 9.3%…Floor Percentage: PHO 52.8% – PHI 58.0%….Percentage of total points from three: PHO 37.8% – PHI 13.0%….Excellent shooting from both teams.
PHO Fantasy Notes: Grant Hill 11pt/8reb/3ast….Amare Stoudemire 40min/17pt/6reb, 6-14….Channing Frye with a poor game, 10pt/3reb, 4-13 shooting, 2-9 from three….Steve Nash a monster assist game, 21pt/20ast, but 7 tov….Jason Richardson finding his stroke, 11-16 for 29 points…Jared Dudley good game off the bench, 18pts on 6-7 shooting.
PHI Fantasy Notes: Elton Brand still looking like a huge fantasy bust. Grab Marreese Speights if he is still on your waiver wire since he will probably take either Brand or Dalembert’s spot at some point….Thaddeus Young 15pt/4reb/3ast/1stl/1blk….Samuel Dalembert 8pt/5reb….Andrew Iguodala 24pt/9reb….Lou Williams 13pt/3reb/3ast/2stl/1blk….Marreese Speights 20pt/8reb.

NYK FantasyNotes: Wilson Chandler with a much needed nice fantasy game, 17pt/10reb….Danilo Gallinari 7pt/3reb, 1-3 from three….David Lee 12pt/7reb/2stl….Larry Hughes 12pt/5reb/5ast….Chris Duhon losing some minutes to Toney Douglas and I wouldn’t be surprised to see the trend continue, 8pt/4ast….Toney Douglas 23min/21pt on 9-14 shooting.
TOR 124 @ SAS 131 Poss: 96 TOR ORtg: 129.2 SAS 136.5
TOR: eFG% 66.4 OReb% 16.6 DReb% 60.0 TO% 11.4 FTR 38.1
SAS: eFG% 56.3 OReb% 40.0 DReb% 83.4 TO% 6.2 FTR 50.5
Game Notes: No Tim Duncan for SAS and TOR still got outrebounded by a huge margin….Excellent shooting in this game and high free throw rates for both teams….Percentage of total points from the FT Line: TOR 18.5% – SAS 25.1%….Floor Percentage: TOR 57.4% – SAS 62.3%.

SAS Fantasy Notes: Richard Jefferson with his best game yet for SAS, 24pt/8reb/7ast….Michael Finley started, 7pt/3reb….George Hill got the start for Tony Parker, 22pt/5ast, only 2 tov….Manu Ginobili picking up the scoring slack for missing Parker and Duncan, 36pt/8ast on 8-15 shooting…..Disappointing game for DeJuan Blair with Duncan out, 6pt/7reb and only 19min, 5PF.
MIN 105 @ GSW 146 Poss: 110 MIN ORtg: 95.5 GSW ORtg: 132.7
MIN: eFG% 47.3 OReb% 43.7 DReb% 74.5 TO% 25.4 FTR 21.2
GSW: eFG% 63.7 OReb% 25.5 DReb% 56.3 TO% 10.9 FTR 41.7
Game Notes: What a horrible performance by MIN. GSW should have been the weak defense in this one. but it was the MIN defense who really stunk it up….The MIN offense wasn’t so great either turning it over on 25.4% of their possessions….Team A/T ratio: MIN .8 – GSW 3.0.

GSW Fantasy Notes: Stephen Jackson 10pt/6reb and somehow 15 assists….Kelenna Azubuike 31pt on 13-19 shooting….Mikki Moore with a start, 2pt/5reb. Not sure why Nelson thinks Moore is a better start than Anthony Randolph….Randolph 23pt/7reb….Monta Ellis 18pt/10reb/3stl…. Stephen Curry 8pt/5ast, 2-8 shooting….Anthony Morrow 20 points on 7-10 shooting, 5-6 from three.
