look how low the values are for Zach Randolph and Quentin Richardso, just to name two more.
I think when ESPN established the initial values, they way underestimated what these guys production would be. I haven' paid close attention, but certainly they've been rising in value every week. It just seems as thought they don't want to raise a guy more than .4 in any one week.
When the new game starts for the second half after the All-Star break, I think the guys we mentioned, along with many others, will show a truer reflection of their values.

I've been in meetings all day. A few random things... Congrats Crabby on winning DAY 20! (or is it Day 21)! :p Way to give away trade secrets there, Commish! :p Just joking. BGT, like plaw said, those players' starting values were based on ESPN's belief of what they were going to do- either just hunches on their part (if the players are rookies) or based on last year's statistics. If Randolph or the others keep doing well, their PVR will keep going up. Conversely, slumping players will have their PVR go down. Oh wow, I got a coaching win correctly! I'm really doing poorly in my yahoo basketball leagues. Just haven't focused enough on those. Between this and football, my fantasy sports time is stretched thin. Much like plaw, I am also striving for a real life!

All I know is Carlos Boozer got taken out of the game in the 1st quarter.  Freakin WUSS! And on top of that Keyshawn Johnson got deactivated by TB. It was not a good day for me game wise. The Fantasy Gods giveth, and the Fantasy Gods taketh away. Heck with all this. I may not play any games next year. :rolleyes:

Geoff and I have Stojakovic, and beings Baron Davis had a good night yesterday I expect both these guys to not score higher then 7 today. :rolleyes: *Here is where you can insert the baby pic Douchey.  Plus, Geoff and I have 3 of the same players and the same coach. I'm doomed. BTW, DB...loved the post on pigskin. I'm like a sponge some days, just sitting here absorbing all this info.

See, there is some hope for the old guy! You have to take some small steps before you can run free. Yes, very funny. If that is what I have to look forward to as I get older then I will just keep my easy going ways and enjoy myself now. No wonder you old folks have mental breakdowns and anxiety attacks. Where else in the world do we let people who are not old enough to drink play with weapons of mass destruction. Well, I'm off to the gym for a afternoon work out. Got to work off all that stress after reading these posts.

Well like everybody, I had Davis tonite. I also had Jermaine O'Neal who didn't even play. I hate those game-time decisions. Shoulda took Yao. Other than that I would have had a decent night with LeBron, Arenas and Randolph.
