The Dwight Howard strategy.

So I really want to go the Dwight/ ft punt route this time around (for change, if anything). I have tried a couple of mocks with drafting him (1st, 5th, 7th), seeing what type of team I can build around him. Here is the best one so far (IMO) with the fifth pick, so please rate, and suggest what type of players (with specifics) to go after.

BTW, the league I am in is a no turnovers, H2H 10 teamer.
1. Dwight Howard (Orl - C)
2. Josh Smith (Atl - SF,PF)
3. Rajon Rondo (Bos - PG)
4. Paul Pierce (Bos - SG,SF)
5. Andre Iguodala (Phi - SG,SF)
6. Ray Allen (Bos - SG)
7. Jason Kidd (Dal - PG)
8. Greg Monroe (Det - C)
9. DeAndre Jordan (LAC - PF,C)
10. Nicolas Batum (Por - SG,SF)
11. Kyrie Irving (Cle - PG)
12. Samuel Dalembert (Sac - C)
13. Brandon Roy (Por - SG,SF) (Just for fun).

So my really strong cats are assists, blocks, rebounds, steals, and fg%. With someone like Jamal Crawford off the bench, my threes and points turn from slight weaknesses to near strengths, and I have said goodbye completely to ft%. Anybody I should have drafted instead?

Seems solid, I won 1st last year in a 14 team h2h with d12 as my first pick, really helps out that he dominates so many categories, dwight and steve nash were a great combo, and his ft% was kind of evened out by my other players who were decent ft%
