Time to drop Brandon Roy? 

Post#1 » by Philly KDub » Sat Jan 8, 2011 2:26 pm

It seems like Brandon Roy isn't going to come back this season. Even if he does, he won't be that productive with his injury. I just dropped him and picked up Ramon Sessions from the waivers. I want to get a player that will help my team. Did I do the right thing by dropping Brandon Roy? I know it is a gamble but I am comfortable with my decision

Here is my team:

Starters:
G - Manu Ginobili
G - Jrue Holiday
G - Jameer Nelson
G - Chris Paul
F - LaMarcus Aldridge
F - Elton Brand
F - Zach Randolph
F - David West
C - JaVale McGee
Utility - DeAndre Jordan

Bench:
C - Joakim Noah
C - Marcin Gortat
G - Ramon Sessions

Obviously, I just replaced Roy with Sessions. I am 9-1 in 12-man H2H league right now. I think I made the right move. I got plenty of depth

Idbe trying to get Roy back though when it appears he is about a week away from returning. Your 9-1 atm anyway so it wont hurt you having him for a week before he returns especially when all youve added is sessions.

For a shooting guard, how about DeShawn Stevenson? He's been taking full advantage of all the injuries going on in Dallas.

Someone already got him. I'm not too worried. Knee issues have been lingering Roy all season long and it is NOT going to go away. Even if he does play, he still won't be able to put up great stats. LaMarcus Aldridge has assumed the role of #1 guy on the team.

I really don't see Roy coming back this season at all. I have a feeling that he will have a surgery at some point of the season

I did consider getting Stevenson but I am not sure who I should drop for Stevenson. Should I drop Gortat? Gortat got potential to be a solid starting center in Phoenix with Nash running the show. Sessions has been playing very well lately. He could stay in the Cavs lineup for awhile. I am looking to make moves that will benefit me long-term. I am not sure about Stevenson. Yeah, he may be taking advantage of Butler's absence but I would like to see how he will do when Dirk comes back. Will he still be able to put up solid numbers with Dirk in the lineup? I just don't know if Stevenson will benefit me long term. I still have to see how he does with Dirk coming back
