Fantasy Basketball Daily News (1/10/10)

Two early starts in the NBA so I’m posting now and I’m moving to the couch for a day of NFL playoff football.  Hopefully, the snow quits falling today and global warming sets in so we get above 25 degrees tomorrow.  Six games on the schedule for Sunday, with two of them starting at 1:00 PM EST.  Set your rosters early.
