First Week - Observations/Pick up suggestions

Figure here is a good spot to talk about stuff from the first week. Anything that would increase/decrease values, or any potential waiver wire pick ups.

Mike Miller starting for Washington

Haywood looking good in tandem with Arenas.

Blatche shouldn't be on standard leagues waiver wire.

Yep, Blatche is killing it out there!

Thoughts? Drop Sideshow Bob for Blatche?

I dunno how much value Blatche will have once Jamison comes back, but he looks good for a short-term fill in at worst.

Webster and Outlaw shall really benefit with Batum's absence.

Cosign that.

Keep an eye on Jason "White Chocolate" Williams (ORL)... backup to Jameer Nelson, but currently leading Orlando scoring (3/3 three pointers) and assists (3), however he has 2 turnovers. Might be a decent bench player.

Marsee Speights, if he plays well in the early few games, will potentially take over Dalembart by mid-season. He had decent numbers per 24 min per game last year and started off against Orlando very well. Eyes out!

The Speights situation is interesting. He would certainly put up quality stats as a starter but I'm fairly certain the Sixers would be significantly worse as a basketball team (they already can't managed the shot attempts between Iguodala-Young-Brand, there's no way they can throw a player like Speights who shoots first and asks questions later into that mix).

My first day disappointments were

Peja Stojakovic: 4 pts. 1 3pt. 1rb
Jarret Jack: 6 pts. 4 rb. 3 ass. 1st.

In a 12 team league. Think I should treat 1 or both as expendable and try to go treasure hunting with early surprises?

I would think Peja is especially expendable he'll get you 3ptm and that's it.
