So your team was sailing along smoothly en route to a top seed in your fantasy playoffs and a cake first round matchup. And then, all of a sudden, the boat capsized.

March is a fickle month that has laid waste to some of the best laid plans of fantasy basketball domination.

Consider the past two weeks for these two players:

Player A: 22.9 PPG, 8.0 RPG, 5.9 APG, 1.5 SPG, 1.1 BPG, 49.3 FG%
Player B: 19.1 PPG, 8.6 RPG, 1.6 APG, 2.4 SPG, 0.4 BPG, 62.2 FG%

Depending on what else was on your roster, these players probably offered similar value to fantasy teams over the past two weeks - a crucial stretch in many leagues.

Player A is LeBron James. Player B is Thaddeus Young.

There are plenty more examples like this out there. There are also players like Kobe Bryant, Carmelo Anthony, Al Jefferson and DeMarcus Cousins, who have failed to live up to their high standards recently because of injury.
