So I officially dropped Gilbert Arenas from the keeper league that I run. It was a very sad day for me. I've held onto Gil' for years...stood by him during all his knee injuries and suspensions. Year after year I kept him, only to see him start with a good first half and then fall apart the rest of the season. This year he has been healthier (and more sane) than recent years, but the move to Orlando has been devastating to his minutes and fantasy value.
Fantasy basketball is all about stat accumulation and those who receive minutes will put up numbers. You'll see in the picture below that I added two injured players (Tyreke and Millsap), but I can afford to since I'm on a playoff bye week and can take a risk that these two will be back next week. If not, I'll just replace them with healthy players.
But yes, a sad day in fantasy basketball for me indeed. Gilbert is still my guy and I'll likely re-add him at the end of the year to have the option of keeping him again next year in case his situation improves. Until then, I'll be watching guys like Dwight, LBJ, and LaMarcus carry me to a fantasy title (I hope)!
