I like C then B then A......not sure what my glaring weaknesses are for each id really be interested in some info....what would you do with each and what trade ideas do you think i can pull off...i much prefer 2-3-4 for their one all star type deals....

im obviously high on mike miller, jackson, artest haha, biedrins, kidd, boozer, and gibson...among other things

put your squad on here and maybe there can be one big thread on this instead on 75 of them with one respose each

muchos gracios...thanks for your input and good luck

Team A: You need another PG and another C, or you'll be hurting in rebs, blks, assts and 3's. Your team is strong on steals...I like that. You'll lose FG% a lot of weeks, with Kidd, Harrington and Artest on your squad.

Team B: If Baron Davis stays healthy and productive all season, you're set on PG's, but I have my doubts that he'll play 70 games or that he'll put up Golden State #'s with the Clippers. I'd add another PG. You've got good bigs in Boozer and David West, but neither is a shot blocker. Get yourself one of those. Maybe Tyrus, on the cheap?

Team C: I like this squad. But get yourself another PG (sorry, I keep saying that!). Doesn't have to be a stud point guard because Kobe and Mike Miller will round out your assists and 3's - I'd go for a high upside guy like Mike Conley. If push comes to shove, offer Tayshaun be prepared for folks to say you're overpaying (they'll laugh now, you'll laugh later).

OK, I'll rank these if you rank the six in my "Power Rank" thread which is a few below this one.

Team A - I actually disagree that you will be hurting in assists, at least not when Deron Williams is healthy. Kidd, Williams and Jackson, who had OK assists numbers last year and should see a jump if he plays point-forward, are good enough in a 12-team league to me. I do think you need to get more blocks and threes like Ashy said, and Artest seems like a player to sell right now if you can. He won't put up the numbers he had with the Kings last year.

Team B - I think this team is pretty solid, I would put out Redd to see what you can get for him. I'm pretty low on him as a fantasy player and someone might be swayed by his points alone. I think you should get the best player offered for him and not focus on a specific stat. You seem pretty set across the board to me. JO should be able to pick up 2-3 blocks a game and Big Ben, despite his decline, still blocked 1.7 with the Cavs last year. Biedrins is OK with blocks too and could put up 2 a game if he gets the minutes (he averaged 1.7 in 29 minutes in 2006-07). Another shot-blocker would be nice, but it isn't a necessity.

Team C - Who was your third round pick in this league? Kobe and Boozer are obvious 1 and 2s, but did you take Artest third round? Like I said before, I don't like him very much in fantasy, moving from a team where he could do anything to a team where he will have a more specific role. Just my opinion. And aren't you able to put Arenas on the DL until he returns? If so, I'd so it soon so you can pick up the best available FA.

I think your assists, FT% and points, without Arenas, are a little weak on this team. When he returns, a lot of your problems will be fixed...but a good third of the season will be done by then.

On a side note, I never like building fantasy teams very similar to each other. My ranking of these three are B, C, A. C would be the best if Arenas was healthy.
