Didnt Draft Durant (doh) (Jet) (4-1) 1294 def by Crossy Crusaders (4-1) (crossy) 1296

This one went right down to the wire. Both teams used all five acquisitions for the week but it was the last pickup for DDD(d), ETwaun Moore (42 / 3), that failed to deliver. His six fantasy points in the Magic win against the Lakers left DDD(d) just two points short. Ron Artest (93 / 3) was the hero on the last day for Crossy Crusaders managing to avoid doing something silly, Rasheed Wallace style (ejected after just 85 seconds). Blazer pair LMA (169 / 4) and Lillard (134 / 4) led the scoring for Crossy Crusaders, while Varejao (248 / 4) and Manu (129 / 4) topped the list for DDD(d).

Nahla Vs LittleDee (1-4) (rodgo) 869 def by The Bucks Fizz (2-3) (spm67) 1092

Thats two in a row for The Bucks Fizz thanks to a big weeks from Melo (214 / 4) and David Lee (112 / 2). This is now the fourth loss in a row for Nahla Vs LittleDee after a first up win as they have struggled without Anthony Davis and missing Rondo due to suspension leaving too much to Kobe (149 / 3) and Evan Turner (131 / 3).

Canuck Steelers (2-3) (UnderAchievers) 1227 def by CK Nicks (3-2) (costak) 1279

The Canuck Steelers had a sniff on the last day picking up Redick (50 / 3) and the red hot Antawn Jamison (91 / 3) but it wasnt to be as CK Nicks held on. They were led by Mike Conley (179 / 3), Jefferson (162 / 4) and Deron Williams (142 / 4) while CP3 (171 / 3) and the good Gasol (164 / 4) provided the points for the Canuck Steelers.

The first loss of the season has been inflicted on the Mildura Dunkanauts as Everybody Loves Raymond came from the clouds on the last day with big scores from Felton (121 / 4) and Big Baby (91 / 3). The Mildura Dunkanauts will be upset with the Thunder resting Durant (226 / 4) during a couple of big wins during the week and the Spurs for sending Tim Duncan (160 / 4) home early. Leading scorers for Everybody Loves Raymond were Batum (149 / 4) and Love (141 / 3) who hasnt missed a beat since returning early from a hand injury.

Hinrich grabbed their first win of the season over the injury ravaged Raptors. CP3 (171/3) and Jefferson (162/4) were Hinrichs strongest performers, while The Raptors had to rely on Brandon Knight (120/4) and D12 (117/3) for their points in what would have been a long week. The Raptors got a total of 5 points from Rondo, Davis and Leonard, while Hinrich will be hoping this win is a sign of things to come for the season.

Amnesty Clause Candidates (2-3) 1314 defeated Mookie Blaylock Athletic Club (3-2) 1310

This was the weeks closest matchup, with Mookie coming back strongly in the last 3 days to ultimately fall 4 points short of a high scoring Amnesty. ACC saw huge 60+ppg weeks from Varejao (248/4), Smith (127/2) and Curry (122/2), and would have been happy for the return of Love (141/3). Mookie meanwhile struggled with injury throughout the week, but managed to stay competitive with a big week from Melo (214/4), and strong performances from Gasol (164/4), West (153/3) and Batum (149/4).

Lainos Nuggets (5-0) 1349 defeated SmokinJoe Misiti (2-3) 1050

Lainos Nuggets are officially the team to beat this season with another strong win over SmokinJoe. Laino had a good spread of scorers, as well as Westbrook (223/4), Noah (141/3) and Lillard (134/4) continuing their strong starts to the season. Joe will be looking for more contributors in the coming weeks, with no-one breaking 150 points for the week. Asik (134/3) was the surprise standout, while Lee (112/2) produced strongly from just 2 games.

Pegs Men Lethal (4-1) 1318 defeated Six Ten Two Forty (2-3) 1232

Pegs Men moved to 4 wins this week in a hard fought game with 6-10-240. Peg continued to see great late round value, with Terry, Prince, Hill, and K-Mart all breaking 100 for the week, while Conley (179/4) and Harden (131/3) produced as expected. 6-10-240 had a good spread of scorers with no-one really getting going - Turner (131/3), Waiters (124/4) and Millsap (116/4) were his top scorers for the week.

Cyril33s Crushers (4-1) 1074 defeated Adelaide Celtics (2-3) 972

Cyril will be happy to get a win this week after scoring well below previous weeks. Lebron (108/2) had just 2 games this week which hurt Cyril, but he managed to get over the line thanks to Holiday (135/3) and an even spread of scorers. The Celtics had a poor week with Wade (107/2), Gay (128/4) and Lawson (102/3) the only players to break 100 points for the week.

Doobia Dominators (3-2) 1412 defeated Gosford Gunners (0-5) 1094

Doobia churned out the weeks biggest score on the back of another big week from KD (226/4), and strong weeks from PatPat (140/3), Linsanity (134/3) and Hickson (128/4). On the flipside, The Gunners are still searching for win number 1, and will hope Chandler (188/4), Aldridge (169/4), Duncan (160/4) and Kobe (149/3) can continue to score strongly. Gosford may need to get creative at the trade table to try and turn their season around.
