Another week of NBA has come and gone. There are now only 7 rounds left before the finals commence and owners of fantasy teams are setting themselves up for the finals or to avoid relegation.

As usual I will do the review of the Premier League, Stowie will do the review of the Division One and Rev will the review of Division Two.

Premier League

Ruddy’s Cavaliers (5-4) 1248 v Linsanity 17 (0-9) 1191

Ruddy was able to bounce back this week by posting a hard fought win over Linsanity. Ruddy had a very sizeable lead heading into the last day and despite being outscored by 180 pts was able to hang on. The leading scorers for Ruddy were Lopez (209/4), Durant (189/3) and Teague (153/3). Linsanity are still searching for answers to no avail.

Anthak (5-4) 1292 v Run TMC (5-3-1) 1180

Anthak was able to get back in the winner’s list with a close win over Run TMC. Both sides were victims of the schedule this week where they played 36 and 35 games respectively which could explain the low scores for 2 of the best teams in the league. The best players for Anthak were Lebron (303/4), Kobe (177/3) and Iggy (157/4). For Run TMC, Westbrook (158/3) led the way followed by Dudley (136/3) and Kidd (129/3)

Jasmine’s Mob (7-2) 1524 v Adelaide Maggotz (3-5-1) 1274)

Jasmine’s team continues to go nuts and posted a big win over the Maggotz this round. Unlike last round, Jasmine only had 8 players break the 100 pt mark this round. The Maggotz are in a bit of trough at the moment and need to post some wins on the board to avoid being in a relegation battle. Best players for Jasmine this round were CPE (206/4), Parsons (176/4) and Vasquez (159/3). The leading scorers for the Maggotz were Harden (218/4), Faried (147/4) and Jennings (139/3).

Westside Hardcore (5-4) 1244 v King of Karlos (5-4) 1157

Mick played 3 more games this round of Karlos which helped him post a narrow victory. Both teams now have a record of 5-4 and will be looking to post some wins in the next few rounds to help their chances of making the finals. Leading scorers this round for Mick were Gallinari (145/4), Aldridge (141/3) and Davis (119/3). Al Jefferson led the way for Karlos with (161/3), followed by Curry (153/3) and Korver (107/3).

Wade Machine (4-5) 1309 v The Jug-O- Naughts (6-3) 1118

Wade Machine desperately needed the win this round to avoid getting drawn into a relegation battle and were able to score a good win over the Jug O Naughts. Ellis was the best for Wade Machine with (193/3), followed by Barnes (146/4) and Lou Williams (142/3). The Jug O Naughts are still in a strong position and were best served by Holiday (133/3), JR Smith (135/3) and Lee (116/3).

Team Heaver (6-3) 1181 v Fudge’s Sixers (2-0) 921

Team Heaver would have to be the close to the form team in the league at the moment as they now have posted 6 consecutive wins and showed no mercy this week on Fudge’s Sixers. The leading scorers for Heaver this round were Irving (157/3), Horford (141/3) and Collison (137/3). Fudge had posted 2 wins in a row but this round he was best served by Timmy D (131/3), Koufos (105/4) and Lawson (99/4).

Division One
<div dir='ltr]TRADE: Another week, another trade with Crossy Crusaders sending rookie sensation Lillard, LMA and Paul Pierce to the renamed The Sausage Arm Butchers for Hickson, Love and Felton.The Bucks Fizz (3-6) (spm67) 1110def Canuck Steelers (4-5) (UnderAchievers, nickluya) 1075The Bucks Fizz overcame injuries to Melo (50 / 1) and Tyreke Evans and held on despite Canuck Steelers winning the last three days of the matchup. They were led by the ever consistent David Lee (116 / 3) and a resurgent Gallinari (145 / 4) having his best game and week of the season. For the Canuck Steelers it was CP3 (206 / 4) and Dudley (136 / 3) scoring well while a bout of the flu and return of Dirk saw Mayo (53 / 3) have one of his worse weeks so far.Crossy Crusaders (6-3) (crossy) 1252 def by Mildura Dunkanauts (6-3) (walesy) 1459

Despite using all five acquisitions Crossy Crusaders couldn't keep up with a rampaging Mildura Dunkanauts who have now won their last two. It was a balanced attack with nine(!) hitting the tonne led by the Durantula (185 / 3) Matt Barnes (146 / 4) and Lou Will (142 / 3). Crossy Crusaders had nineteen different players contribute points this week with Parsons (176 /4) and Holiday (133 / 3) leading the way.

Albert Park Rangers (1-8) (bgt) 1118 def by Travys Boys (4-5) (travyboy11) 1268

Travys Boys get back on track with a win over the slumping Albert Park Rangers. Big weeks from PG pair Westbrook (158 / 3) and Curry (153 / 3) set up the win with support from Thad Young (137 / 3). The Albert Park Rangers continue to make moves in order to find the perfect combo, but it just hasn't clicked yet. Leading scorers this week were Jennings (139 / 3), Pau Gasol (134 / 3) and JKidd (129 / 3) who figures to have a massive role for Knicks going forward with Felton injured.

Team Stowie (5-4) (stowie) 1449 def Broady Broncos (3-6) (nicksnow) 1026

After losing the first day, Team Stowie fought back to win the remaining five against Broady Broncos. It was Brook Lopez (209 / 4) doing most of the damage with Monta (196 / 3) also putting up big numbers. Broady Broncos were led again by Harden (218 / 4) who is loving the freedom a trade to Houston has brought him, while Vasquez (159 / 3) and DWade (113 / 3) were the only other players to hit triple figures.

Didn't Draft Durant (doh) (8-1) (Jet) 1374 def The Sausage Arm Butchers (6-3) (L6) 989

This matchup had top billing with two of the premier teams coming together over the XMas period, unfortunately for The Sausage Arm Butchers it turned into a massacre from day one. DDD(d) were too strong with LBJ (303 / 4) and Tony Parker (146 / 3) leading eight players that passed the century for the matchup. The Sausage Arm Butchers were led by Kyrie (157 / 3) and Collison (137 / 3) as they had trouble with injuries and were also apart of the blockbuster trade with Crossy Crusaders sending the roster into a state of chaos for the matchup.

Nahla Vs LittleDee (3-6) (rodgo) 1092 def by CK Nicks (5-4) 1153

CK Nicks pick up their fifth win of the season as both teams missed scoring opportunities over the busy XMas period. Al Jefferson (161 / 3), A.I. (157 / 4), Faried (147 / 4) and Asik (112 / 4) were the only players to hit the tonne for CK Nicks. While for Nahla Vs LittleDee, Kobe (177 / 3) continued his amazing season at age 34 with Jordan Crawford (122 / 4) and rookie Anthony Davis (119 / 3) also making to triple figures.
