Three Sell High's, Two Buy Low's, and One Night To Ink

Thief Nation! It's a quiet night for games, but that doesn't mean it has to be a quiet night for trades! We've got some serious thievin to do. I reached down deep into my bag of tricks to find some gems. Listed below are three hot Sell High players and Two Deep Buy Low players. Let's check out the numbers:

SELL HIGH: Randy Foye - G - Washington Wizards
I'm amazed at how quick people have fallen in love with this guy. It's like we've never seen him play before! Yes he has had a nice string of games....real nice....in fact, over the last 4 games he's put up:

Treys: 1.8
Points: 20.3
Boards; 4.3
Dimes: 8.0!!
Steals: 0.8
Blocks: 1.0!!!
TO's: 2.0!!

Do you really think it's going to get any better than this? Nothing wrong with takin a profit my man. We're targeting Tier Three players with Foye. Everyone is on the bandwagon now, everyone wants a piece. So long as you grab that Tier Three value, we'll never need to look back.



Sell High: Samuel Dalembert - C - Philadelphia 76ers
Remember way back when I wrote that Defense Specialist post on ole Sammy? Peeps were wondering if he was going to get any PT next to Speights? What a long way we've come! Check out these numbers over the last weeK

FG%:  .724!!!
Points: 11
Boards: 13.5!!!
Blocks: 3.5!!!

Sick week for ole Sammy, time to move him. I know he's been a great addition to your squad, I know he's probably brought you right back into defensive contention, but like Foye, his numbers simply can't get higher than this. Use the ole 2-1 deal and try to ink that Tier Three player here again. Got both Foye AND Sammy? Package em up and shoot for Tier Two.

Sell High: Corey Maggette - F - Golden State Warriors
Two words for you, Don Nelson. Two more words for you, Andris Biedrins. Wait! One more word for you, inconsistent. Maggette has been lights out over the last week. Putting up numbers we haven't seen from him in years. Take the profit! Look for that value! Target that Tier Three player and ink. Here's the line over his last 3 games:

FG%: .488
Points: 27!!!
Boards: 7!!

Chipping in everywhere else too. He's going to have competition down low as Biedrins gets more and more comfortable. Offer him now while his value is through the roof!

But who to target??

Buy Low: Carlos Boooooozer - F - Utah Jazz
Man Booze really fell hard from his awesome start. He might not want to admit it, but those trade rumors really hurt his game. Well the rumors have died down and now Paul Milsap is the only one hurting (for playing time!). Boozers stat line over the last month is a mediocre 17 points and 9 boards, with 2.8 turnovers hurting his value. You won't get another shot at a gem like this, especially since his last 3 games were very unspectacular.

Buy WICKED Low: Rashard Lewis - F - Orlando Magic
You like my little Boston accent sneaking in there? Is there any player right now worth LESS than ole Shard? This guy is playing like some sick dork who can't hit the broadside of a barn! He's shooting a Courtney Lee like 40% over the last month and has seen his playing time drop down to roughly 25 minutes a game.

No he's not injured. Yes he's still the same guy who led the league last year in three's. Most importantly, the Magic need Shard to be Sharp to make a serious playoff run. This drought won't last, so strike soon. I would REALLY low ball here too, owners are ready to drop him to the WW it's so bad.

Well that about wraps it up. Now hook up some deals and dominate!
