Hey guys, looking at picking up granger, Bynum or even d-rose

Who should I look at dropping or include in a 2-1 trade as a kicker to open up a roster spot.

this is what my team looks like now (10 starting spots, 3 bench)

Jarrett Jack, GS PG, SG
Monta Ellis, Mil PG, SG
Luol Deng, Chi SF
Nikola Vucevic, Orl PF, C
Amar'e Stoudemire, NY PF, C
Ty Lawson, Den PG, SG
Serge Ibaka, OKC C, PF
John Wall, Wsh PG
Tristan Thompson, Cle PF, C
Larry Sanders, Mil PF, C
Kobe Bryant, LAL SG, SF
J.R. Smith, NY SG, SF
LeBron James, Mia SF, PF

7 team league
Rotisserie style scoring
14 Cats: Points, Blocks, Steals, Assists, Offensive Rebounds, Defensive Rebounds, Rebounds, Field Goals Made, Free Throws Made, Three Pointers Made, Field Goal Percentage, Free Throw Percentage, Three Point Percentage, Assists To Turnover Ratio

Unlimited FA pickups, currently in 4th position. In a good 3/4 way fight for 3rd spot. Top 2 guys are a solid 20-40points ahead of the league. So not likely to catch either before the season is done.

Just traded, Dwight and Westbrook for LeBron in a 2 for 1 and picked up Jack just as Curry went down. Leading the league in FG% and 6th in blocks & ORB. Last in FT% due to having Dwight all season until recently. Also last in 3ptm & 3pt%

Any help/suggestions would be great

i would drop amare and get granger. then prolly try to do a 2 for 1 to get D Rose, maybe a trade with jack involved so you could replace him

Drop amare for Rose

With unlimited waiver pick ups you should keep a slot open

I'd drop Jack (95th) and Ellis (100th) for Granger and Rose. And Amare for Bynum.

It's a 7-team league. Jack and Ellis have no value. Granger is normally anywhere from t12 to t30. He's a must-grab. So is Rose.

Amare is dunzo.

How many games have you used? You start 10, so here's who I'd be starting:

PG Wall
SG KB24
G
SF LBJ
F Deng (when healthy obv)
PF Vucevic (13th per game past month)
C Iblaka
Util Thompson (28th per game in your settings the past month)
Util Sanders
Util

I suspect you haven't been watching your games played. I wouldn't play anyone else to save the #s for Rose/Granger/Bynum. Lawson doesn't play well in your settings (123rd past month).

You should def be in 1st place in blocks by a mile. If it's unlikely you can be caught, start shopping Iblaka. If you can still be caught, wait 2-3 more weeks and then shop him. I'd start now, though, 'cuz he's been slowly declining.

Your team is v good. If you have been watching your GP, and you set yourself up nicely to take advantage of Granger/Rose, and the dudes in front of you haven't (very common), you can sneak into first.

games played is also unlimited.. so it hasn't been a worry to how many games we've been playing.

might start shopping ibaka then, any suggestions as to type of players i'd be looking for in a lawson, ibaka package?

thanks for the help Apathy!! much appreciated.. i'm definitely getting odd responses in the league as to my recent moves in trades, here's hoping it all works out
