People are a bit leery on what he can do on the Cav's. In Minnesota he was the 1st and only option. His value takes a huge hit now that he's playing next to Lebron and now has a scoring PG instead of Rubio feeding him 24/7.

I also want to congratulate you guys for keeping this thing rolling. We were the last team to start drafting and we blazed right past the other 2 leagues. Thats what being in the Premier League is all about, the dedication and activity level!

Yeah, I knew that is why, but I think LeBron ultimately makes things easier for him. He may have dips in scoring and rebounding, but he will probably have an increase in fg% and 3 pointers. LeBron also passes enough to where he might not really have a big dip in scoring either. If Varejao ends up not being healthy, his rebounding might not dip much either.

After having time to think about drafting Melo, I think I made the right pick. Kobe put up massive stats in the triangle and Melo is a similar player. So I'd be surprised if there is any noticeable drop off in his fantasy value this year. Melo was also better by a pretty fair margin than any of the players left on the board.

You are correct, by 6 minutes, excuse my stupidity.

I agree with the pick, i think he is going to have a huge year because of the reasons you stated, and having Calderon feeding him this season is just going to be an added bonus.

Haha. Apparently you don't need to be an expert to win leagues - just need to know HOW to win them and string a few sentences together!

I just helped put out a draft kit for Fantasy Hoops Insider Pod (those pics you helped me with bro) and am writing for The Fantasy Fix as well. Thought of a new piece that's just had part 1 released here - 'The 10 Commandments of Fantasy NBA'

If anyone wants to kill 10min and have a gander at some historically great fantasy numbers by KD and AD...

Coldbyfletch emailed as he's in NZ and doesn't want to hold it up - he wanted Kyrie but said he'd settle for Dirk!

After he did so well for me last year, I'll take Joakim Noah.
