Who should I drop for Bynum/Brand? 

Post#1 » by buzzer90 » Mon Mar 3, 2008 6:44 am

My H2H team:

T.J. Ford
Paul Pierce
Danny Granger
Corey Maggette
Kevin Garnett
Rashad McCants
Chris Kaman
Joel Przybilla
Devin Harris
Beno Udrih
Kevin Martin
Antonio McDyess
Chauncey Billups


I only have two centers, Przybilla and Kaman. One is inconsistent and the other is a constant injury risk. I need help at this position. Should I drop T.J. Ford to pick up Bynum/Brand?

Another question that pertains to a lot of fantasy squads out there: Who should be picked up Brand, Bynum, or neither?

Thanks

I'm currently in 6th place out of 12 teams, so I'm in a tough spot.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Holy crap, but you have a really bad team for a 12 team league. I would drop Joel for Brand, Bynum's not returning until early April when Brand is back in a few weeks.

Thanks for the advice.

If you consider where some these players were drafted in a 12-team league and their current values, I wouldn't say "you have a really bad team".

Garnett 1st round, Billups 2nd, Pierce 3rd, Martin 4th, not sure about 5th, but let's say Kaman whose exceeding 5th round value, Ford 6th, Granger 7th (exceeding value), Maggette 8th (exceeding value), Harris 9th (exceeding if healthy), McDyess 10th, and then MCCants/Udrih/Przy are certainly worthy late round/waiver types. I'd say that's an average team for a 12-team league. Not great but certainly not really bad.
