1. Dwayne Wade
2. Paul Millsap
3. Kyle Lowry
4. Zach Randolph
5. Jrue Holiday
6. Carlos Boozer
7. Luol Deng
8. J.R. Smith
9. Andrei Kirilenko
10. Kawhi Leonard
11. Kenneth Faried
12. Jeff Green
13. Mike Dunleavy
14. Ben Gordon
15. Robin Lopez

I'm worried about guys like dunleavy, jeff green (Boston is so deep), and ben gordon. Only noteable FAs in my league are:

Jason Maxiell, Kosta Kofous, Delfino, Boris Diaw, Beaubois, Handsbrough, Stephen Jackson, Gerald Green, Aminu, RIP hamilton, Vince Carter, Randy Foye, Battier, Morrow, Carl Landry, Bledsoe, Laovey Allen.

Not exactly the cream of the crop - do you make any changes or wait and see? My league is all headsup based by the way.

If I were you I'd consider punting assists. I mean just looking at your team the only reliable guys to get you assists are holiday and lowry. Maybe wade but his assist numbers have gone down since playing with Lebron. Dunno sometimes I think it might be easier to give up on assists if you don't have big time guys like rondo or cp3 or just not enough competent assist guys.

Drop Jeff Green ASAP he sucks. Gerald Green is a good pick up when Granger is out, he'll get at least 30 minutes.
Delfino is a great source for 3's okay for steals, and produces well in limited minutes off the bench.
Foye is okay value, good in everything, doesn't really hurt you anywhere but limited upside.

Aminu is also a good sleeper pick

So i ended up dropping Dunleavy for Taj Gibson (didn't see him as an FA before) - should help me out with blocks.

I'm considering swapping green to get Dunleavey back but i'll wait it out (only get 25 player adds). I know historically dunleavy is superior to Green when Green comes off the bench, but Dunleavy is 35 plus they got Monta ellis for a full year plus Green signed a large contract with Boston which should make you think he'll at least get 25 mpg. I think at worst, Green = dunleavy but has more upside.

Thoughts?
