Basketball Above All

A good day. Close to a very good day. If I'd taken Nate Robinson in all my contests instead of only most of them, it could have been a clean sweep. Lost two very winnable headsup matches, including one to etoppsfan. I guess I shouldn't have taken that backup Clippers center. Oops. It was nice to win the six player multi - I wanted to enter more multis yesterday, but there weren't any available other than a $22 six player contest.

Monday results: 8 contests entered (3 - 10 player, 1 - 6 player, 4 HU); 5 cashes (2, 1, 2); amount risked: $24.20; amount won: $36.00; net: +$11.80; ROI +48.8%

I was able to watch most of the Knicks-Pacers game, which was sloppy all around. I didn't know that TJ Ford and Marquis Daniels had the flu, but lucky for me Daniels was able to play through it and I didn't have Ford. I also ended up watching most of the Jazz-Hawks game (stupid insomnia). The Jazz are tough at home, the Hawks looked horrible. Mike Bibby may have the slowest feet of any starting guard in the NBA.

On a semi-related subject, Schaubs asked in comments whether I'd tried Draftbug yet. I hadn't, but got on the ball yesterday and signed up (although I see that I screwed that up. Oops). I'll probably write up a trip report and some thoughts tonight, but I'll mention that I won my contest against kaiseroll13.
