Day 24 of 170: Peja Lives
Day 24 of 170: Peja Lives
givemetherock.com — Line of the Night : Peja Stojakovic (0.88). Left for dead through the first two weeks of the season, the Chris Paul injury left the Hornets in desperate need of someone with even a minimal ability to create some offense. Well, as long as his shot is falling, Peja is the man for that job. In a ... (more) Day 24 of 170: Peja Lives

Day 22 of 170: His Name is Nene Hilario
givemetherock.com — Line of the Night: Nene Hilario (1.27) still has a first and last name around these parts. If he could turn out 4 steals and 4 blocks per game for a whole season, though, we’d call him whatever he wanted. He also had 20 and 10 with 61% from the floor and 80% from the line – an ...

Day 21 of 170: Capt Jack Sails Away
givemetherock.com — Line of the Night : Dirk Nowitzki (1.12) may not make an exciting first round pick on draft day, but Dirk owners have got to be excited with what he’s doing so far this year.

Day 19 of 170: Just Give Brandon Jennings the ROY Already
Day 19 of 170: Just Give Brandon Jennings the ROY Already
givemetherock.com — Line of the Night : Brandon Jennings (1.42). One of my rules to live by – if a rookie point guard drops 55 points in any one game, I am giving him the LotN no matter what anyone else does on the court. Jennings, who has already surpassed just about everyone’s expectations to start the year, ... (more) Day 19 of 170: Just Give Brandon Jennings the ROY Already

Day 18 of 170: Chris Paul Goes Down
Day 18 of 170: Chris Paul Goes Down
givemetherock.com — Line of the Night : Most of the time when a guy gets so much fantasy hype going into the season, they end up disappointing in a big way (see Randolph, Anthony). Not Trevor Ariza (1.87). He’s done exactly what everyone hoped he would be able to do with the Rockets and more so far this year. His ... (more) Day 18 of 170: Chris Paul Goes Down

Day 17 of 170: Can we just have the Heat and Cavs play every day?
Day 17 of 170: Can we just have the Heat and Cavs play every day?
givemetherock.com — Line of the Night: LeBron James (1.37) went almost point-for-point with Dwyane Wade (0.71) last night, and both had at least one monster jam along the way. LeBron had better supporting numbers with 2 threes, 4 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 steals, and a block. He was 16-18 from the line, which ...

Day 16 of 170: Be Slightly Uneasy of the Beard
Day 16 of 170: Be Slightly Uneasy of the Beard
givemetherock.com — Line of the Night : Baron Davis (1.33) proves that he’s both still alive and that fantasy is much more than scoring. While Davis shot a very Baron Davis-like 6-18 from the floor on the night and finished with not very LotN worthy 17 points, the rest of his game was nearly flawless. He added 7 ...

Day 14 of 170: Manu Ginobili to the Rescue
Day 14 of 170: Manu Ginobili to the Rescue
givemetherock.com — Line of the Night : Manu Ginobili (1.81). Both Tony Parker and Tim Duncan sat in this game (and are day-to-day with injuries), so who else but Ginobili to the rescue?
