One of these days there is going to be a breakthrough. I'm so very close to having a monster day - it seems to be one little thing each time that's killing my results. Yesterday was Kevin Durant going down in the first quarter with an ankle. Out for the game. As a result, I lost my heads up contests to guys who didn't pick Durant by 1 point and 4 points. Was close in the multis too.

Don't mind me. Just venting. And no, I'm not paying you a dollar for the bad beat story.

Friday results: 6 contests entered (3 - 10 player, 1 - 6 player, 2 HU); 1 cash (0, 1, 0); amount risked: $15.30; amount won: $10.00; net: ($5.30); ROI -34.6%

I watched the Phoenix-Toronto game and bits and pieces of some others. It was a blast from the past watching Shaq just absolutely destroy the Raptors. They could not stop him. Bosh, Bargniani and Voskuhl all picked up five fouls on hacks and Shaq still shot about 95% from the field.

The end of the New Orleans-Milwaukee game was pretty intense too. NO had it on cruise control, up about 20 points with three or four minutes left when the Bucks when nuts. Ridnour and Charlie Bell drained a whole bunch of threes, coming all the way back to lead by one. NO wins with a tip in at the buzzer.

Edit: Oh, and I lost my contest at DraftBug as well. Durant again.
