Sanders DOESNT need MUCH playing time to make a good OVERALL impact. Once again:

Let's just present the facts.

Hickson in Yahoo, rank in 9 cat leagues, average: 138.
Larry Sanders rank in same leagues so far: 63.


That's what a good FG% and blocks do for a Big man's value.


Again you are making points nobody is making, nobody asked who is ranked higher. We can look that up

Sanders doesn't take that many shots to impact Fg% , that's a flaw in the yahoo ranking system and I think it's overrated.

That's the point, he is ranked high because of a overrated fg% and good block numbers

ESPECiALLY in H2H

This isn't Roto


JR Smih is ranked higher my yahoo League over Lebron

Would you take JR over him?

Really? Are you comparing JR vs Bron with Sanders vs Hickson? Yeah you just did.

What I did was back up my statements about these players. I have Hickson on my dynasty team myself. I like what he brings. But not as much as what Sanders does and what Sanders will bring over the course of this season. I might even look to trade Hickson if Meyers keeps playing as well as he's been doing because unless Portland trades LMA, Hickson's minutes aren't going anywhere but down.

That's stretching it a bit. Hickson has tallied 30+minutes in his last 3 games and produced in all 3 after being played ~25 minutes before those games. A lot of people think Leonard doesn't look ready and it's true because he simply doesn't produce like Hickson, and he's a rookie.

But yes, Sanders has better fantasy value because of the blks and fg%.

And Rookie's minutes tend to go up as the season progresses. Not saying he'll start this year, but I'm expecting him to get more burn as the season progresses.

I am comparing the yahoo ranking system that you refenced who has JR Ranked higher than Lebron to prove a point about it being flawed.


I would sell high on Hickson if I got a solid player in return

Hickson has Meyers to be concerned about

Sanders has Gooden, Moute, Ilyasova , Henson, Dalembert , Prizbilla and His High Foul rate to worry about.

I'll let last night's game do the talking. And the rest of the season for that matter.
