what stats are you losing in? You had a few players injured, but it looks like you might be hurting in assists, maybe blocks, three's, TO's, stls

i dont get why though. you would think paul evans arenas green jackson would all get over 100 steals on the season. i should be dominating steals

and dalembert gasol and bogut should easily anchor a team in blocks.

Is it a case of all my players underperforming or should i look to trade everyone. would it be worth trading Chris paul and just flopping assists?

well..Dalembert and Gilbert were out to start. Bogut out one game, Varejao out one game. Those things might add up.

It helps to look at other teams in your league. A team with 4 shot blocking big men will beat you or 3 shot blockers including Dwight. A team with Josh Smith and two shot blocking big men can potentially beat you..etc.

A team having a guy like Wade would give him an advantage in shot blocking if the big men are weighted equally.

For steals, it may be a little easier to go for. But there are big men, like Bosh getting a steal a game and those things add up. If you played against a guy who has Wall/Ellis, those players got 9 and 7 steals in a game, which pretty much covers the week.

I would wait a little bit and see what cats your team is close in and very weak in. Punt the weak cats and try to improve the ones you're close in (without hurting your strong categories).

Paul, Evans, and Odom are great picks. The rest is rather iffy, and you probably can get better players off the waiver wire. That's probably why.

Doesn't help either that you have a guy like Deng who will get you points, but doesn't really do anything else. No rebounds, steals, assist, blocks, etc...

I was gonna say you're spread to thin. You don't have a group of guys to help build you one category.
