Love Seraphin as well. Washington looks really bad again, so even if he splits minutes early in the season, you know he's going to get heavy minutes later on.

i like Bledsoe this week with the Clippers playing Thursday and Sunday

also Alan Anderson gave some pretty good production for the Raps last game, I'm going to monitor how he does. Raps haven't got much production out of starting SF Fields

Which Waiver Wire Frontcourt Player would you want?

Gustav Ayon - PF
Kendrick Perkins - C
Andre Drummond - PF/C
Taj Gibson - PF

I don't care that none of them can score or have low FT% ( they don't take enough to matter ), I just want rebounding and blockshots from them as a 4th Center. My thought is that I'd wait it out on Ayon ( cuz he's more well rounded when it comes to production ) but I think that Drummond has more upside despite his limited minutes now. From what I have read...he should get more minutes as the season progresses. I think that Taj is consistent enough that he'd provide consistent production.

I'm leaning towards Drummond but could stick with Ayon...if he starts producing.

If you can use some scoring, 3pts and even some ast, keep an eye on Alan Anderson. I think he'll become a starter soon, replacing Fields. Even if he doesn't he holds value.

Keep an eye on the Detroit situation. Singler and Jerebko might start. Let's see what they can do, but personally I'm a fan of Jerebko. Both in real games as well as for fantasy purposes.

Also, in New Orleans, Darius Miller will start. He's not too talented, but let's see what he does as a starter now Rivers is out. With Rivers struggling, Miller has a chasnce to earn a bigger role in the rotation.

What do you guys think of Larry Sanders? I'm really behind in blocks because of some injuries. Getting a ton of minutes off the bench. Will he be able to keep it up?

Do you think he'll take over the starting job soon? he's playing a hell of a lot better then Dalembert with more minutes.

Singler looked nice.

Shannon Brown is posting 14 pts/ 1.8 3pt per gaem off the bench in Phoenix.

Meanwhile, Bogut will be shut down for at least the upcoming 3 games, could be 6. Festus Ezeli will start in his place. He's got a NBA ready physique and could get you some blks and reb. Keep an eye on him.

I know he has been discussed a lot, and seems people are high on him in terms of a waiver wire pickup, but I am also looking at Jack. He is the situation:

I drafted Dorrell Wright (please don't ask why as I don't even know myself), dropped him for Nate Robinson, after George Hill and JR Smith were swooped before I could pick them up. I grabbed Hinrich as I was hoping to get the CHI guard that would be getting the most minutes. It looks like Thibs is splitting the time evenly, and I dont want to get myself caught in a DeAngelo Williams / Jon Stewart type situation where the minutes are getting to divided, and no consistency.

I am looking to pick up Jack to replace Hinrich. What do you guys think? Should I look to keep Hinrich around, or maybe even look at a player like Danny Green who is available.

My lineup:

Irving
Klay Thompson
Josh Smith
Monroe
Horford
Garnett
Hayward
DeRozan
OJ Mayo
David West
Asik

You could try to get a good pg for Derozan. Why not try Teague, you never know who overrated Derozan and bites now he had a good all round game. You coudl then proceed to pick up Green or Jack.

Larry Sanders, kevin Seraphin or Nikola Vucevic? I have Vucevic this week b/c of schedule but who will be the best going forward?

Blocks would be most ideal and that should give teh edge to Sanders but those other guys seem to be playing more minutes.
