Yahoo! Sports Fantasy Ball
14-Team 9-Cat Head-to-Head League

Round (Overall Draft Position) Name

1. (12) Dirk Nowitzki
2. (17) Chauncey Billups
3. (40) Brook Lopez
4. (45) Jason Richardson
5. (68) Rudy Gay
6. (73) Anthony Randolph
7. (96) Wilson Chandler
8. (107) Stephen Curry **
9. (124) Mario Chalmers
10. (129) Marc Gasol
11. (152) Louis Williams
12. (157) Andray Blatche
13. (174) Danilo Gallinari **

I swapped 8th & 13th rd. picks with a guy in the league during the live draft.
Can't believe Dirk fell into my lap as the 12h pick, some fool took KG at the 7TH PICK! lol.

What do you guys think?

Nowitzki at 12 and Lopez at 40? Chalmers at 124? Good job lol. Your team looks really solid. Especially for a 14 team league.

Nice catch with Dirk and Lopez.

You will be weak on assists. Billups+Chalmers won't cut it. You should win TOs each week though.

I don't like the stephen curry pick. Perhaps try and move him for Nate Robinson? I'm a big fan of his; although turnover league his value drops. I just don't see Curry getting enough minutes with Don Nelson to put up top 120 #s. Robinson will be top 90 again as nothing has changed from last year.

If you have a minute, please take a look: viewtopic.php?f=39&t=951967

That's a solid team for a 14 team league...if you got your hands on one more solid pg via waiver I'd say you were set.

Thanks for the constructive feedback!

Yea I'm aware of my assists issue... I actually have been mulling over offering a deal for Nate since he was put on the trading block immediately after the draft lol.

And the Curry pick was just my obligatory 'rookie pick' for the year lol. Last season Brook Lopez was an absolute stud for me (that's why I got him again haha). I wanted Flynn but he got picked 3 picks before I took Curry. I think I just might offer him up with someone else for Nate + someone.

If that doesn't work out, here are the FA PG's I could drop Blatche or Gallinari for:
Jennings, B. Udrih, Maynor, Ridnour, Lowry, D. Cook.
Not that many options, lol. So I'm leaning towards leaving roster as is for a week or so & seeing if Lou Williams can be the sleeper I anticipate & increases his assists by 2 or 3 apg.

I think holding off to see how L. Williams does is a pretty good idea.

Williams/Chalmers/Billups might be enough for a 14 team league.

Also, did you notice Curry got 10 Assists last night?...just saying.

And, I would pickup Jennings for sure.

lol yup. Well aware of Curry's progress.
I think in a Don Nelson offense in the NBA, Curry will bring in 3's & assists, He won't be the prolific scorer he was in college yet.

Also, if I pick up Jennings, who/what stat do i drop?

Gallinari or Blatche

If Gallinari ever gets to play in D'Antoni system he will go off, just a great shooter. Blatche now has an opportunity becasue Jamison is out 3-4 weeks. However, would not get many minutes when Haywood/Jamison are healthy. I

I'd say drop Baltche because Gallinari has such big upside and Blatche has been a failed sleeper for several years now.

I 'll put Jennings on the watch list as Blatche plays while Haywood & Jamison are out...

I'm not sure about Jennings for the first few months of the season at least, as long as Scott Skiles is the coach.

Hang onto both Blatche and Gallinari.

Once Jamison is back, then Blatche can be discarded.

Yup, exactly what I had in mind
