Baron Davis

Thoughts on this guy? Is he even worth holding onto in a 12 man league?

I think he will be useful. BD has a very nice ast:to ratio. He'll help in stls, 3pts and ast and hurt you in fg. However, I think he'll be motivated to prove he still has it when he comes back. Bledsoe isnt ready to run the team (Clipps fan here), and even if he was, the Clipps would need to showcase BD. He'll see how Griffin and Gordon play right now and have a bit more trust in them. I think his FG will be around 40-42%, ast around 7-8, 1.5 stls and 3pts and maybe a little over 2.5 to's.

I have him on my team as well and I'm holding on to him too.

^Totally agree. I traded Tony Parker for him before the season started, and I still think I made the right decision. Even if the Clippers don't want him anymore, their going to need to play him heavy minutes this season if they want to have any hope of trading his massive contract away, and Baron is either going to need to live up to Del Negro's expectations if he wants to stay, or he's going to have to perform so a team he would WANT to go to will actually be interested. Either way, this seems to be a make it or break it season for Baron as a top notch PG, and I'm banking on Baron shutting the critics up.

He's clearly not what he used to be. Couple that with bad work habits and not being in great shape and you got a below average fantasy point guard. He's definately worth holding onto but I'd rather have Tony Parker over him by quite a bit at this point.

Someone just offered Baron for AK47 in one trade and Baron for Richard Jefferson in another. Which, if any, should I take?

Bledsoe has done better for me already this year than Davis. B-Diddy can stay hurt as long as he wants, let a competent point guard run the show.

High turnovers, low FG%, chucker of Seinfeld proportions.

I hate guys who get paid a ton of money and don't take their profession seriously.

Just gave up Maggette for Baron in a trade. He's out until Thanksgiving so I'm not sure if it was a good deal or not for me but I'm incredibly weak in dimes, so I pulled the trigger.
