Within 90-minutes of being picked up by the police, Hernandez was released by the Patriots. A short

by

Reader Brian C. is back in a big way. Brian C. had been an active participant in The Bernucca List earlier this season, providing the correct answer for two lists. But we hadn’t heard from him in a while. Meanwhile, fellow readers such as Ody P. narrowed the gap on season leader Brian Rivel, who has nailed the correct answer to three lists. But Brian C. is back in the picture as he was the first with the correct answer to last week’s

Love Hurts: T-Wolves’ Star Injured

by

If you already own Kevin Love, his fractured right hand is a bad break indeed. If someone else owns him, you might send a friendly note of sympathy and a trade suggestion. If your league hasn’t drafted yet, this is a possible opportunity. He’s certain to fall, from third or fourth overall to much later in the first round, if not lower. In keeper leagues, Love’s value hasn’t changed. Target him. In redraft leagues, you know he’s going to miss a fifth of

Tweet of the Night: Ekpe Udoh

by

Former Warriors power forward Ekpe Udoh showed his enthusiasm for the performance of Stephen Curry, who went off for 25 points on 10-of-15 shooting in 24 minutes of play against the Denver Nuggets. Despite the 104-98 loss and the five turnovers that came with it, what Curry did in Monday night is significant for one reason: he went through the game without any issues of his surgically-repaired right ankle. After sitting out the team’s first exhibition game on Oct.

Fantasy Spin: Friday April 6

Dwight Howard played, without much enthusiasm: 8 points, 8 rebounds, 3 blocks, 5 turnovers and a swirling controversy about his relationship with Stan Van Gundy. Jameer Nelson also played, without much success (10 PTS on 3-14 shooting) and Glen Davis (15 & 7) got another start in place of Ryan Anderson (ankle). Carmelo Anthony led the visitors to a convincing win with 19, Tyson Chandler (12 PTS, 12 REB) was strong and J.R. Smith (15 PTS, 9 AST) continued to

Fantasy Spin: Tuesday April 3

by

You have to admire the Rockets. They came out fast, then had a horrible second quarter and could easily have given up. Instead, they won the second half by 17 points behind the unlikely Big Three of Goran Dragic (21), Luis Scola (18) and Marcus Camby (12 PTS, 11 REB.) Chicago, which hadn’t lost two in a row all season, got 24 from Luol Deng and 16 from Carlos Boozer, but their guards were disappointing. Richard Hamilton played 20 minutes
