Playoffs in Review: Game Re-Caps

So here I am, with the final match-up already halfway over, and I still haven't written anything about the first two rounds. This could be attributed to general laziness on my part, or fatigue from the blogging season wearing on, or disinterest after my team's elimination in Round 1. And all of those would probably be correct attributions. But another factor is that I'm also not exactly sure how to write these. Normally, I am guided by the team highs and lows for the week, the players that contribute the most on each team, and the individual leaders in each category. Suddenly, in the playoffs, all those factors have become less important. Everyone is so focused on just beating their opponent that being high or low in the league is basically irrelevant. Player contributions are obviously important, but with so much adding and dropping going on, the individual achievements have taken a backseat to the owners' ability to get a few key stats out of different guys each night. What I really needed was to keep a running log of what pick-ups worked and didn't, how the category match-ups played out over the course of the week, and how the owners reacted (or didn't) to try and snatch every win they could. I did none of those things. So these game re-caps might be a little under-informed, but I'll do my best.

.308 - 1.000 - 0 - 10 - 3 - 1 - 2 - 0
This isn't a terrible line, but for Dwyane Wade, in the middle of championship week... it's a terrible line.

Shart: Terrence Williams, Teen Wolf
.450 - 1.000 - 2 - 21 - 5 - 9 - 0 - 1

Upper Decker: Mo Williams, Call em Bullets
.500 - .875 - 2 - 21 - 1 - 6 - 3 - 0
Odd, in that Bardey picked him up off the wire on Tuesday and then didn't start him on Wednesday.
