Anyone have any suggestions as to Players that are underperforming or overperforming now that one should "Sell high" and "Buy low"?
I think that Players like David West and Rudy Gay...both Players that are performing ( IMHO ) below expectations will do much better ( compared to how they are doing now ) as the season progresses. For Rudy Gay, I'm not sure if it's because he's returning from an injury from the previous season and is trying to integrate back into the lineup and it's taking him longer to do so....but with ZBo out...he appears to be in a position to "Step up" and do much better. As for David West, he's on a new Team and coming back from injury. I think that he's in the same position as Rudy where he should do much better as he becomes more familiar with his new teammates.
Thought's anyone?

Danilo Gallinari you can sell high right now and get a good return. Not sold on if he's a 20 ppg just yet.
Iman Shumpert is a buy low if he's still available in deep leagues. He might be a part time starter until Baron Davis comes back but he can be great for H2H each cat.

Sell High:
Paul George (shooting at a ridiculous percentages)
Steph Curry (I think Warriors will shut him down at one point of the season)
Harden (Once westbrook bounce back, he'd have less touches on the offensive end)
Buy Low:
Dirk (very poor performance last two games)
John Wall (I think he'd eventually bounce back)
Westbrook (see John Wall)
Kaman (he just started for the Hornets in their last two games; contract year)

sell high:
kobe bryant: if your league counts TOs you gotta shop him around.
ryan anderson: gotta at least check his market value. he's not shooting 43% on 7.6 3PA all season long.
andrew bynum: too many TOs
blake griffin: anyone still think he's worth a 2nd round pick? id take 4th round value for him
jarrett jack: see what it'll take to get rubio or calderon, or get a guy like augustin and get an upgrade at another position in a 2-for-2
paul george: %'s are too high, granger heating up will marginalize george
tyreke evans: id trade him straight up for calderon or rubio
amare stoudemire: not a good fit w/ chandler, sell him to someone who thinks he has last year in him
kevin martin: don't think his FT rate is coming back
john wall: sell high on his upside and name, acquire low-key talent like brandon knight
carlos boozer: a glorified jump shooter. he's done.
luis scola: did you know he's 138th on the ESPN player rater when sorted by averages?
buy low:
manu ginobili: 1st round per-game value at 3rd/4th round prices
chris paul: top 5 value at late 1st round prices
deron williams: 1st round value at 2nd round prices
jose calderon: i think he stays elite all year
steve nash: 2nd round value at 3rd round prices
dirk nowitzki: 1st round value at 2nd round prices
luol deng: high tier SF at mid-tier prices
joe johnson: always starts slow. perfect swingman in TO leagues
nene: 2nd round value (in TO leagues) at 4th round prices
lamar odom: exercise patience
brandon knight: big 2nd half
paul pierce: 2nd round value at 3rd/4th round prices
jason kidd: i'm riding or dying with my boy
elton brand: see kidd, jason
frye: he's put up fringe top 50 value for years but no one feels comfortable owning him. take advantage of that
derrick favors, arron afflalo, tyrus thomas, devin harris, mehmet okur, gordon hayward, alec burks: should have nice second halves.
joakim noah: the talk of him not playing well with boozer is overrated. it's not about boozer; he sucks. it's about noah. noah will improve. shopping a guy like ibaka and acquiring noah would be smart.
