The Grill Is Warming Up

| Comments

Team Hibachi Grill is starting to warm up. I hope the trend continues.

The core of the team if the trend continues is pretty solid:
Guards: Nash, Bell, TJ Ford
Forwards: Nowitzki, Brand, Wallace
Centers: Diaw, Gasol
Bench: Krstic, R Jefferson, Webber, Garbajosa, Wilkins, Head, A Jefferson,

The biggest reason for my surge appears to be the inspired play of the much maligned Diaw. He’s putting in some awesome lines for me during the last six games. I hope he continues to do this and recapture the form that he had last year.

G Wallace continues to be a disappointment on my fantasy team. He continues to rack up steals at a pretty good rate but it’s still down from last year. His blocks and FG% are down from last year which is worrisome. I hope he gets it going soon.

Gasol started last night. His first NBA game in awhile. If he recaptures some of his form from last year I’ll be in good shape. Webber has been up and down but his statline has shown glimpses of the fantasy stud he once was. With AI out, I’m hoping he becomes the main guy for that team. The last 4 games, he’s contributed quite a bit to my team. Only his FG% has been scary. If he picks that up I’ll be in good shape.

I’ve been boosted slightly by a number of waiver wire injury pickups: Head, A Jefferson, Wilkins.
A Jefferson, in particular has been amazing. The way he plays I hope he continues to start. I picked up Head to boost my treys but since TMac got injured, Head has stepped it up. Wilkins has played well but I’ve been nervous about starting him. Ray Ray is back soon so I’m considering dumping him to pick up T Allen.

Hibachi Grill is a power team. My core players are primarily forwards and centers. I need to balance the team up with some guards and wing players. Hopefully I can get some trades and waiver wire pickups to help with that.
