Fantasy Sports Review

-It’s early, but as of now there are no real injuries that will effect your fantasy playoff team in the Super Bowl. Plaxico Burress still has an ankle injury, but after his incredible performance yesterday there is little doubt he will play. And of course Tom Brady will be on the injury report, but no worries there, either.

-It’s gone from bad to worse for Jermaine O’Neal owners. The Pacers big man now says his ‘prime option’ is to sit out the rest of the season. I would hold onto him until this decision is made official, but at this point he’s worthless in the fantasy world.

-The Lakers frontcourt suffered another injury, with recently acquired Trevor Ariza suffering a foot injury. This means the team will be forced to rely even more heavily on Kwame Brown, possibly making him a fantasy option.

-Hawks point guard Anthony Johnson has been suspended from tonight’s game with the Portland Trail Blazars, so if you see big minutes from Acie Law and think his time has come, think otherwise. As much as I am convinced Law will be a fantasy force within the next couple of years, I’m equally convinced it won’t be this year.

-Here’s a great column from Rotoworld, breaking down the schedule for the second half of the NBA season. Could Chris Kaman be the second half fantasy MVP??!?

-Fantastic news for Cardinals fans as well as fantasy baseballers out there, Chris Carpenter is throwing again. In your draft you should be able to get the 2005 Cy Young Award winner much later than usual, but you should still be wary of his injury history.
