Nene might be a good addition.

Nah, Nene is clearly wearing down. (He was carrying my squad at the start of the season.) And Nuggets play only twice next week.

Ramon Sessions

Who I dealt to Roy Hobbs for a '08 2nd round pick? Here was my line of thinking. "Hobbs squad looks tough, but he's thin at PG maybe I don't want to trade him a promising sophomore." "Nah, it's fine, Skiles will bury Ramon on the bench, ruin his confidence, probably fine him for wearing a head band." And I may have been right, except Redd went down, and then Ridnour went down, and then Redd went down again... Oh well.

As for a finals run killer - Marcus Camby? He even had contract incentives tied to number of games played, and he still shut it down. Duncan might be trouble. I'm waiting for V.C. to shut it down.

Ramon Sessions was going to be sleeper pick of the season.  I made a trade where I acquired Andrew Bogut and I had to choose between Sessions and Vilanueva and I traded Vilanueva for Rudy Fernandez (this was in the beginning of the season).  But for some reason that nobody knows, they never played him even though EVERY time he played extended minutes he would put up good numbers.  After a while of him not playing big minutes, I dropped him.  Now the kid who I am going against in the finals has him and he's killing me in the assist category.

The question though is this.  Where is Sessions drafted next season?  The coach is an idiot and only plays him when he has to, so I am not sure that this run will solidify his minutes next season.
Baby Jesus!
