Waiver Wire 

Post#1 » by TheHumanTripod » Wed Oct 15, 2008 4:48 am

I'm in a 10 team H2H standard catergory league. Here's my team:

Deron Williams PG
Joe Johnson SG SF
Luol Deng SF
David West PF
Al Jefferson PF C
Kirk Hinrich PG SG
Emeka Okafor PF C
UTIL
Andrew Bogut C
Devin Harris PG
Drew Gooden PF
BENCH
Mike Bibby PG
Kyle Korver SF SG
Mikael Pietrus SG SF

There's a couple nice pieces still left on the waiver wire like:

Ricky Davis
Rashad Mccants
Charlie Vilanueva
Wilson Chandler

I'm thinking this team may need a little more 3 point shooting so I'm leaning towards dropping maybe Pietrus for Ricky Davis or Mccants? Villaneuva and Chandler look like intriguing options because Charlie V will get a lot of burn this year as the only PF option in Milwauakee and I have a feeling Chandler is gonna blow up big time under D'Antoni. He put up 20/10 tonight along with 5 threes against Philly.

Am I reading too much into preseason play a bit or should I just chill for now?

Looking at your team it seems like you dont stand a chance winning 3s IMHO.So i would just throw that stat away and drop both Korver and Pietrus for Charlie V(hes looking good and they really have no one that backs him up, except for the rookie Joe Alexander) and I would go with Wilson for the other pick up.But dont expect the same stats from tonight,he may start out a little slow but even though he isnt starting he is getting more min than Q and he is also playing the PF position so he may get the eligibility for that also.I expect 16 7 2 from Charlie V and 14 7 2 1stl 1blk from Wilson

Those are pretty optimistic stats for Chandler and Charlie V.

Bucks is a mess even in pre season and CV doesnt really fit the teams needs at power forward.

I'd drop Korver definitely and add Ricky Davis.
I'll keep Pietrus,he is starting in Orlando and he has potential to bring 1+ in 3's;steals and blocks.
