The Disappointing Trio

If the Miami Heat continue playing like this I am going to have to start talking about other teams, but for now lets just hope this is them getting used to each other.  Dwayne Wade has no idea where the basketball hoop is.  Last night's game he was 1-13 from the field and 1-5 from behind the arc.  That is just unacceptable from Wade. 

Moving on Kevin Durant returned from a brief injury and continued his production, scoring 28 points with 3 blocks.  Jeff Green also contributed to the teams success by adding 24 points and 6 rebounds.  With those two in the lineup the team just looks 5 times better. 

With John Wall still nursing his left foot, Gilbert Arenas continues to put up nice numbers.  Last game coming off the bench Arenas put up 19 points and 16 assists.  That's right Gilbert isn't as selfish as everyone makes him out to be. 

Now with my pick-ups of the Week.

This week I like:
Darko Milicic over the last seven days is averaging 18.3 ppg, 7.7 rbs, and an absurd 4.0 bpg.  I know he won't keep up these numbers, but if he can average a double-double the rest of the way adding 2.0 blocks I would be happy with that. 

Javale McGee- Despite only being owned in 78% of Yahoo Leagues, McGee is averagin 11.5 ppg, 11.8 rbg, and 2.8 bpg of his last 3 games.  Those numbers should only get better as he continues to mature as a NBA player.  He is only 22 years old.

Matt Barnes- Even though his numbers don't jump out at you he contributes in almost every category, a Trevor Ariza type player.  This year he is averaging 9.4 ppg, 5.6 rbg, 2.4 apg, and 0.9 spg.  He should be pretty consistent with those numbers especially in a Lakers uniform.
