Basically I've been killing fantasy ball last few years, but this time not so much despite the fact that I thought I had made killer trades... D-Wade and Paul :-?

12 team H2h League

I just recently picked up Marvin Williams and Al Harrington who were foolishly dropped in my opinion.

You could say injuries inhibited me for the first few weeks, Ellis, Arenas, Ginobli, Oden, and Smith just recently.

Chris Paul
(NO - PG)

Dwyane Wade
(Mia - PG,SG)
G
Monta Ellis
(GS - PG,SG) INJ
SF
Richard Jefferson
(Mil - SF)
PF
Josh Smith
(Atl - SF,PF) INJ
F
Udonis Haslem

C
Tyson Chandler
(NO - C)

Chris Kaman
(LAC - C)
Util
Greg Oden
(Por - C)
Util
Marvin Williams
(Atl - SF,PF)
BN
Gilbert Arenas
(Was - PG) INJ
BN
Manu Ginobili
(SA - SG) INJ

Al Harrington
(GS - PF,C)

Well if this is currently how your roster is. you have Monta ellis, josh smith in ur starting line up who are out injuried, Oden and Chandler were injuried for a few games.... ur bench has Manu, who is out for now, Harrington has ManRam-itis and doesnt want to play for the team he is on...

thats pretty much the problem as i see it. with that said. once these guys get healthy ur team will be sweet. looks like u just gotta wait out the injuries

Seriously though, I thought I should have been able to handle things with 8-9 players on hand. I mean Arenas, Ginobli, Ellis were all picked like 9-12 round ish, The impact difference from healthy players is just 3 scrubs.

I think the obvious problem with your team is that most of your players are injured. It would be a totally different story if your players were healthy.

I'd actually try moving Arenas for someone, because you have too many injuries really to keep them riding on your bench... unless your goal is to sneak into the playoffs and then dominate once (if) those guys return.

It's pretty obvious where your problem lies.. injuries
