well this is h2h so you just need to win more categories than your opponent. So its not necessary to be strong in every area, as long as you dominate in at least 5-6 categories youre in good shape.

PTS - Strong
REB - Needs work
AST - OK, maybe a little light
3FG - Yuck
FG% - OK
FT% - OK
STL - OK
BLK - Needs work
TO - Hard to say, probably toward the bottom end

Well we will have a limit to moves in the B League. IT will be capped at 50. I think that is fair enough.

Thanks alot man for the input. Im kinda banking on Jermaine O'neal to be the 20/10/2 guy he was two yrs ago and not the 13/6 guy, but I agree, I definitely need to pick up another big to back him up. Im also thinkin with Camby gone, Melo's reb #'s should go up to maybe 8-9 rebs per at least, and that's good from a SF....

Also, depending on how Mayo and Westbrook do I may be ok with 3's and maybe kinda strong in STL's, but we shall see. I appreciate your opinion tho, cuz it's always good to hear another perspective, so thanks alot man. :wink:

P.S. Also, I kind of messed up & regret taking Kleiza right now, so he's on the block if someone wanted him.....I'm thinking I can trade Klieza + my next pick, for someone else's next 2 picks so just let me know if u want him or if ur interested..

What kind of deal with Jeff Green?

I am still VERY interested in Williams

What about...

Derron Williams+Your next pick (Pick 170)

for

Dwayne Wade+Jeff Green

or if that is too big

Jeff Green+My pick right now (Pick 152)

Stephen Jackson+Pick 183 (not your next pick, but the one after)

In trade talks...Eastern is thinking about an offer (not one from above) and once I get a response my pick will be made as it is pending the trade. He said he wouldn't be long.

You know, I played fantasy bball last season and was wondering what if someone just started add/dropping players every day to fill out their roster and maximize their points. Luckily no one in my league did it, so we didn't have to deal with it.

Well, except for the playoffs. Shouldn't you be allowed to during the playoffs? What if one person uses up their allotted add/drops when it comes to that time, and the other person has 10 left? Are you just SOL?

Doesn't a waiver system solve that problem? Just make there a constant 1 day waiver period or something like that. You pick up a player, you go to the bottom of the list.

Also, as an added measure, maybe set it so that once a team has been completely eliminated from play at the end, they can't just dump all their players. That could potentially cause some problems.

Yea, its on the first page of the draft thread. Preliminary trade talks are allowed though, I guess. I think the rule means trades are not made final/official during the draft.

All trades are still subject to league approval, so if it is anything like that one sided Stephen Jackson trade, it won't have much of a chance of going through.

Hey man, I've looked over some stuff and decided that I'm not going to go through with that trade. I feel i need Captian Jack at that spot to help out with some different categories. Sorry and thanks for discussing with me.
