In your opinion, what's the hardest catagory to try to win?
I'm trying to figure out who to draft and wanted to get players that would focus in on the harder Stat catagories to win.
Usually it's Turnovers....which I never won last year....but outside of that....I'm guessing that it's either Steals or 3pt.
Thoughts anyone?

The hardest cats to win are the ones that a lot of people try to win. These are the cats you should make a low priority rather than targeting. Points for example are almost always overrated.

So, what are the low priority catagories?
I'm leaning on Steals with 3pts a close 2nd....

Re: What's the hardest single H2H Catagory to win?
Points and Boards are overrated. T.O's are mainly variable.
Try to make sure you first 2 picks are players that are effective at defensive stats. You can pickup points and boards easily in the later rounds. Players that have good defensive stats but are also equally effective as others in points/board/assists are few and far between. This is why I don't value David Lee to much. This is essentially his first year with round 1 status, and personally, I don't think he has round 1 value.

I usually plan to go with at least 5 Centers......so Rebounds/Blocks aren't a concern. I guess I can try to focus in on Steals then.

Re: What's the hardest single H2H Catagory to win?
Percentages are very important in the first two rounds. Unless you plan on punting right off the bat, you usually want a player who is at least solid, if not dominant, in both FG% and FT%. Reason being is that you won't really find many players in later rounds (except for maybe Kevin Martin) who score enough to make a big difference in either cat.

3PTM... Which is generally why I avoid it every year I play... Except for this year because I took Curry with my first round pick
Steals IMO are actually fairly easy to win, at least in the leagues I play in Andre Iguodala always goes later than he should
(maybe I value him higher than the consensus value placed on him, but given the success I've had with drafting him the last few years I think it's not out of the question to say that the consensus view on Iguodala is wrong).

I'm not a fan of Iggy. He's a great fantasy option, no doubt, but he gets picked way too early (ADP of 24). I'd rather have Al Jefferson or Al Horford, or even Monta or Tyreke.
