I'm in the same boat. We only keep 5 players with 12 teams. So top 60 really.

Oden was ranked 30-40. So I don't think I can afford to/justify keeping him for the remainder of the season.

My other player that would most likely fall into keeper list would be Harrington or Jameer Nelson.

^ Who are your other keepers? ^

I don't know when you guys decide on keepers but I'd be a bit wary of keeping Harrington for example since it's likely he switches teams in the offseason and sees his production drop.

I might actually keep Oden if I'm you (if you can manage through this season) wait for his value to increase next season and then ship him out ASAP.

i cut oden loose, but i'm playing in a shallower league. 10 teams, 3 keepers.

lebron and roy are locks for keeping, and the 3rd was a tossup between oden, calderon, yao, and rashard. with the injury, i can't afford to losing a 2nd roster slot for the season.

My other 4 keepers (15 teams 5 keepers(9 cat roto)) going into this year were Dwight, Wade, Kidd and Green. But i'm in 3rd right now and one big move could send me to the top. Other potential keeps on my team: Bogut, Harden, Derozan, Morrow. not an appetizing list.

Morrow could be a good keeper and let's see how bogut finishes out the season. he's really a poor man's oden (when Oden plays)
