The Wire Troll: Matt Hasselbeck Turns Back the Clock Read Post »
Through two games, Dalton has thrown for 413 yards and three touchdowns without a pick, and his performance has the Queen City abuzz with talk of a potential return to respectability for the Bengals in 2011. That’s big talk for a franchise that has finished above .500 only twice in the past 21 seasons, but hey, if there’s one thing redheads are good at, it’s inspiring crazy talk — and crazier deeds.

If he can stay healthy, Gooden should be at least a modest source of points and boards the rest of the way, and he’s worth adding deeper Fantasy formats. Note: Gooden is not eligible at centre in ESPN leagues.

Over his last four games, the rookie has played at least 29 minutes — while averaging 10.5 points, 4.5 rebounds and an outstanding 2.8 blocks. If you’re short on swats, consider grabbing Udoh for the stretch run… but be aware that he is still very much a work in progress, and his playing time could evaporate quickly if Smart decides to try out something else.

The NBA season is nearing the top of the home stretch, and Fantasy owners — especially those in head-to-head leagues — are feverishly working the wire in hopes of landing that hidden gem that will carry them to championship glory.

It’s those kids — and we feature one of them this week — that can turn the tide of fortune in your favour.
