Homan League: Week in Review 10/27 - 11/2


A review of action in the fantasy basketball league dubbed "Homan League".   May include free agent pick-ups, trades, DNP's because someone forgot to set their lineup for the early morning Pacific time game.  Also other shenanigans worth mentioning in the fantasy league.  All opinions are solely mine.


Highlights:
Steal of the draft so far has got to be 11th round selection of rookie sensation Michael Carter-Williams who is doing his best impression of a young JKidd.  Besides a 20 pts / 9 asts average, MC-W is also leading the league with 13 steals. (TEAM: David Stern)

Fellow Sixers teammate, Spencer Hawes, or as he is known in some really small circles as 'white dwight', is not getting much publicity for an amazing first 3 games of the season.  His averages of 2 threes, 65% from the field and around 11 boards per game is Kevin-Love-esque.  (TEAM: S7venbyVII)

Proposing the nickname ''what, really?" for Anthony Davis cause that's what people say when they read the box score for the Pelicans.  At any given game, he's capable of recording league highs in rebounds, steals, blocks and/or a combination of the three.  Plus "what really" is a good free throw percentage shooter at the PF/C position. (TEAM: Pres(i)ton)

Often overlooked, especially with the return of Drose, Carlos Boozer is also putting up fantasy MVP-type numbers.  Besides a 22 pts / 8 rebs average, Booz is shooting a blazing 66% from the field and has yet to miss a free throw; that's 100% for you percentage lovers. (TEAM: Swagger)

Nice Pick-Up - Free Agency:
Miles Plumlee (TEAM: Adam Silver): Surprising opposing coaches for his impact and amount of minutes being played and surprising fantasy owners his contributions (Averages: 15 pts / 14 rebs / 3 blks).

Trevor Ariza (TEAM: Just Jrue It):  Contributing treys, rebounds at a high clip right now (Averages: 20 pts / 12 reb / 5 ast)

Uh-oh:
Nice foresight in picking up Vitor Faverani but hasn't played him yet (TEAM: Jae's Dazzling Team)

Four guys (Kobe, Tobias Harris, Danilo Gallinari, and Chase Budinger*) on his roster registering DNP's because of injury (TEAM: kobeking)
