sleeper is really a proxy for upside. hill has none of it


And yet you think Rubio will get 30mpg coming off the bench in a 3PG rotation in Minnesota playing under a coach notorious for being strict with rookies? :o


umad?

Any thoughts on Derrick Brown? (strong playoff schedule in most leagues.)

My H2H Team:

PG) Westbrook, TyLawson
SG) Felton, Fredette
SF) Nick Young, Morrow
PF) Griffin, Bosh, Cousins
C) Bogut, Hibbert, Camby(or Hill?? or Ryan Anderson? or Big Baby??)


See if you can swindle someone into giving you someone like Billups for Cousins. You're wing players aren't too hot and aren't really helping your bigs or PGs. Someone like J Smoove, Billups, or Monta could really help your team a lot.

Is Ebanks going to be a sleeper if he gets to start over Barnes? I'm seeing promising signs in 2nd preseason game.

Dudley, Augustin and Derrick Williams are the sleeper on my team. Hoping for big things out of all of them, less from D-Will. Kemba has me a bit worried for DJ.

Is Casspi worth a look?

I have no idea how a Euro can have such a horrible FT %, but I'm not as concerned about FT. He's the projected Starter at the SF spot for the Cavs.

Thoughts?

If you have a marginal player I would absolutely swap him out for Casspi. He's going to be their starting SF and shoots a decent 3 ball. I can see Irving setting him up alot this year and he likely will be the Cavs top scoring threat.

That's what I'm thinking. I picked up Rashard Lewis with my last pick since I need some depth at the SF spot....but I'm thinking that Casspi would be a better option.

I dropped Henderson for Okur.

Now its between Teague and Knight. I think Teague will be good this year.

I am not high on Rubio at all. 20/min a game will be tough

i think knight >>> teague. teague posted DECENT numbers in the playoffs but it was in 38+ mpg. he's just not a starting-caliber nba guard. hinrich is ahead of schedule in his recovery.

teague could be trevor ariza-like in that he's terribly inefficient but posts decent fantasy #s because of PT. once hinrich returns tho i'm bearish on him

i like knight a lot more than those options. i like him enough to be willing to wait 3-4 weeks for him to get pt if it comes to that
