"As you're likely aware, the sport commonly known as "NFL football" concluded its season last evening, which means we can all focus our energy on wasting entirely too much time on fantasy basketball (which most of us were already doing in the first place). Here's the latest from the Roundball Stew universe as we enter Week 7:
I'm all for adding Reggie Williams and Bismack Biyombo (in that order), but beware of the "Double Bobcat." When I say Double Bobcat, I'm referring, of course, to the practice of having two or more players from the same crappy team on your roster, a situation that becomes wildly frustrating when said team is averaging just 79.1 points in its last seven games (and just 87.3 points on the season). Other similarly nightmarish situations to avoid if at all possible: the Double Wizard, Double Hornet, Double Piston and the dreaded Double Raptor.
And for the record, I place Williams ahead of Biyombo because I like the combo of points, 3s and assists that Williams offers (separating him from the average two-dimensional outside shooter). Furthermore, I'm wary of Biyombo – still just 19 years old – struggling with foul trouble and inconsistency as he learns to play center in the NBA. With that said, based on what I've seen, Biyombo's long-term potential as a shot-blocker is monstrous."
