Another week, another loss for Team Sneaker News. It’s been a bad 2011 thus far, but a consolation from this week was that our injured players had time to heal, and we made an improvement, going from 1-7-1 a week before to 4-5. This week’s match-up against bottom-dweller DRJAYS could not have come ata a better time, but does this seemingly fortuitous match-up bode well for Team Sneaker News? Emeka Okafor, who has been upgraded to ‘Questionable’, is exactly that, and Eric Gordon is still out with injury. With the Playoffs around the corner and the two top seeds already clinched, can Team Sneaker News hold on and make it to postseason play in the FLuD Watches “Barksdale & Bell” fantasy basketball league? Stick around and we’ll keep you posted!
