NBA - 2009-2010 Week 22 Fantasy Basketball Start/Sit Line-up Planner

Below, we help you set your line-up for (who to start or sit) for the upcoming week by looking at the Top 5 four-game schedules. Our Games-per-Week Schedule Grid is especially useful throughout the season, so make sure you download it, print it, and keep it by your side to consult for every decision you make. Personally, I like to take a blue highlighter and "blue out" the column for the current week each Tuesday as to easier see the good and bad stretches on the horizon.

TOP FIVE UPCOMING FOUR-GAME SCHEDULES (ranked worst to best)
Note: We're just putting the obvious, all-league "starts" in brackets now to begin each blurb.
5. Toronto Raptors (@MIN, UTA, DEN, @MIA)
[Bosh, Bargnani] Turkoglu is solid again in deep leagues, and Calderon and Jack can get you assists without scoring much, but the others are too inconsistent.
4. Utah Jazz (BOS, @TOR, @IND, @WAS)
[Williams, Boozer] Okur has been better lately and is good for all leagues this week. Kirilenko is banged up, so I'd bench him, though he could play a couple games. Despite the great schedule, I worry too much about their consistency, but if you must, you can use Millsap, Miles, or Matthews in a deep league.
3. Orlando Magic (@PHI, @ATL, MIN, DEN)
[Howard, Nelson, Carter] Lewis and Barnes are both decent options in a week with a great schedule. Deep leaguers can take a shot at Ryan Anderson this week, too.
2. Golden State Warriors (PHO, MEM, DAL, @LAC)
[Ellis, Curry] I wouldn't quite trust them in shallow leagues, but you can consider Tolliver, Maggette, and Williams in deep leagues.
1. Dallas Mavericks (@NO, LAC, @POR, @GS)
[Nowitzki, Kidd] Haywood looks okay in all leagues this week. Marion and Terry are playing well and have a good schedule. Caron Butler's doesn't seem to fit in with this team, but he is still useful in deep leagues.
OTHER 4-GAME WEEKS (ranked best to worst):
- DEN - [Anthony, Billups, Nene] Given the sweet schedule, J.R. Smith can be considered in all leagues for his threes. Chris Anderson won't give you much else, but you can use the Bird-man if you need his 8 blocks this week.
- HOU - [Brooks, Martin, Ariza] Scola is inconsistent but is currently playing well enough and may be used in all leagues. Lowry is the one last useful Rocket.
- ATL - [Johnson, Smith, Horford] Crawford is hot and works in all leagues right now. Williams and Bibby are for deep leagues only.
- BOS - [Rondo, Allen, Pierce] Garnett is okay, but he's obviously declining. Perkins is barely a deep league consideration.
- CHI - [Rose, Hinrich, Gibson] Miller and Warwick may be considered in deep leagues.
- IND - [Granger, Murphy] Hibbert, Watson, and Rush can be used in deep leagues.
- MIA - [Wade] O'Neal, Beasley, Arroyo, and Haslem are options, depending on your team needs.
- MIL - [Bogut, Jennings] Salmons is looking good for any league. Delfino and Ridnour can be used in deeper leagues.
- MIN - [Jefferson] Love and Flynn are fine for most leagues, while C. Brewer and Gomes are okay in deeper ones.
- OKC - [Durant, Westbrook, Green] No other Thunder players are really usable right now.
- SAC - [Landry] With Evans out, Udrih is a must-start. That's it on this sorry Kings team.
- SA - [Duncan, Ginobili] Parker is still out, so George Hill is a nice play. Richard Jefferson could possibly be considered in deep leagues.
- NJ - [Lopez, Harris] Yi Jianlian and Terrence Williams are useful in deep leagues despite the tough schedule.
- WAS - [Blatche] Al Thornton and Mike Miller are okay to use in deep leagues.
3-GAME WEEKS (ranked best to worst): PHO, CLE, CHA, POR, LAC, DET, MEM, LAL, NO, PHI
2-GAME WEEKS (ranked best to worst): NY
