Iverson or Jameer Nelson??? 

Post#1 » by creative1 » Mon Dec 14, 2009 6:46 pm

I currently have Iverson but Nelson is on the waiver wire. I'm in a 10 team/H2H/standard cats + FTM and I'm currently 1.5 games back from first place. I can afford to wait on Jameer for 2-3 weeks if his #'s will be that much better than Iverson. I think Iverson is actually going to start putting up pretty respectable #'s in Philly and there isn't as much talent around him so they will need more from him than Orlando does from Jameer. I'm also more worried about Nelson being injury prone than I am with Iverson, which is ironic.

With all that said, Jameer seems to be stepping his game up to a new level when he is healthy. Who would you take for the remainder of the season?

Would you drop Iverson, Morrow or Salmons to pick-up Nelson?

I went ahead and dropped Iverson for Nelson. I think it's a little risky to drop a player that's putting up #'s but Iverson is starting to have shin and knee problems already so he's as much of an injury concern as AI. Hope I made the right move.

Iverson has put up two 20 pt games in a row. I am a little regretful as socring never hurts but I think Jameer can equal Iverson's scoring + give me more assits and 3's. Iverson's gimpy knee is also acting up. Somebody validate me dropping him for Jameer though?
