If you had to choose 3 keepers for the 2014/15 season who?

Durant
Batum
M Gasol
P Gasol
Deron Williams
Robin Lopez
Darren Collison
Meeks
Holiday
J Butler
Carroll
G Green
Jeff Green

Its a standard league 12 team 9 cats. Each team gets 3 keepers. I am leaning towards Durant Batum and Marc Gasol but dont know. I dont really like M Gasol

Durant and Batum are locks. Either Marc or wait for Deron Williams to show what he's got in this playoff series (and beyond)

Durant, Batum, and Marc. I don't see an argument for anyone else. Marc had a down year but he was still pretty solid. I wouldn't touch D-Will. Health issues and inconsistent play even when he is healthy. In a three-man keeper there's going to be a whole bunch of PGs available who are better or on the same level as D-Will.

I'd actually rank Lopez as your fourth best player going forward. Such a clean line and he seems to have really found a good spot with the Blazers. With his current role his floor is really high and we saw his ceiling down the stretch of the regular season.

Durant, Holiday, Batum

Fun fact about Holiday. I traded BIG for him when he was playing really well. Not even a week later he had that knee injury. :lol:

Yeah I feel I have to go Durant and Batum since they are both 8 cat players (sans TO's). Marc seems like the likely choice but he is a very underwhelming fantasy option. He gives solid 7 cat production but doesnt really excel in anything.

Holiday kills a team in TO's, wont score a lot on NO, doesnt shoot many 3's, and isnt a good FT shooter. I like him in fantasy but usually low ball trade for him.

Pau might have been an option but I dont trust him as a PF on Chicago. Taj should see lots of minutes.

Durant, Batum, Marc. Not close.

Another guy I'd consider over gasol is Holiday, but I think Gasol is the better choice

Durant
Batum
M Gasol

Is the right thing to do... Holiday has crazy TO's

Couldn't agree more with Durant, Batum, and Marc Gasol.

Damian Lillard
Evan Turner
Rudy Gay
Derrick Favors
Tyson Chandler
Ramon Sessions
Chris Bosh
Thaddeus Young
Trey Burke
Jodie Meeks
Jordan Hill
Darren Collison
Ryan Anderson

Christophersen · Post #11 » by **Christophersen** » Thu Aug 14, 2014 3:59 pm

Damien Lillard and Derrick Favors are my no brainers since they will be productive for years to come. After them I probably go with Bosh and his increased role in MIA

rapsdesigq · Post #12 » by **rapsdesigq** » Fri Aug 15, 2014 3:54 am

Damian Lillard - 3's scoring, no bench, great playoff sched, wil be playing for max contract soon
Derrick Favors - Contract yeay, MArvin W ate his production who is gone
Chris Bosh - Boost in numbers, great percentages and 3's will be happening more

Rest of the team ... mehhh

Fenris-77 · Post #14 » by **Fenris-77** » Sat Aug 16, 2014 9:37 pm

@ witnessraps: Anderson, Korver, Calderon. Sub Calderon for Henson or Harris is the age factor bothers you but the value is Calderon.

@MeestR: Lillard, Favors, Bosh.

@F1ux: Durant, Lillard, M Gasol

Tobias Harris, Jared Sullinger, Ryan Anderson.

Tobes is gonna have a monster year. People are sleeping on him because of his disappointing '13-'14 numbers, but that had to do with several things. Inconsistent playing time, the fact that he was only 75% healthy playing with an ankle that wasn't fully healed and several veteran guys who couldn't be denied their shots. It was a messy rotation from start to finish in ORL.

Now he's back to 100% and with Nelson/Afflalo/Davis gone he's their best offensive player (he already was IMO, but hurt and those three vets needed their touches) . Plus, it's a contract year.

Monster year I tell you.

PerkinsFor3 · Post #16 » by **PerkinsFor3** » Sun Aug 17, 2014 3:28 pm

AND he's been playing PF already quite a lot this season so he might see time at both positions, not only meaning more minutes available, but also more nice roto projections.

Fenris-77 · Post #17 » by **Fenris-77** » Sun Aug 17, 2014 5:34 pm

Minutes at PF could be hard to come by with Frye, Gordon, and Nicholson in the house, even if those guys spend some time playing small ball C. Harris will have a nice year but I think he'll end playing something very much like last season's 30mpg rather than jumping up to something closer to 34mpg.
