Auction Draft League: Have both LBJ/KD and crap! Help

Ph33zy · Post #1 » by **Ph33zy** » Wed Oct 20, 2010 1:13 am

10 team, standard 9-Cat league....Auction style draft. I spent most of my money on KD and LBJ.. Okay D. Collinson isn't crap, but most of my other players are (auto drafted after I ran out of money). There are a lot of players on the waiver, but I'm not sure who to grab.... I know I should probably pick up Hickson for Speights and Jack for Calderon, but not sure who else. Wilson Chandler for Batum? We have a 50 move max for the entire season so every move I make will be crucial...

Here is my team:

Darren Collison (Ind - PG)
Dorell Wright (GS - SG,SF)
Tracy McGrady (Det - SG,SF)
Kevin Durant (OKC - SF)
Taj Gibson (Chi - PF)
LeBron James (Mia - SF)
Marreese Speights (Phi - PF,C)
Carl Landry (Sac - SF,PF)
Al Harrington (Den - PF,C)
Nicolas Batum (Por - SG,SF)
Jose Calderon (Tor - PG)
Evan Turner (Phi - SG,SF)

Waiver:

Boris Diaw
J.J. Hickson
George Hill
Reggie Williams
Wilson Chandler
Shawn Marion
Terrence Williams
Jarrett Jack
D.J. Augustin
Luke Ridnour
Wesley Johnson
Shane Battier
Serge Ibaka
Darko Milicic
Charlie Villanueva
Amir Johnson

Pick up Hickson for sure. Don't drop Batum, in a H2H league he has a lot of value as a complimentary player and is far from crap. Remember he is starting for the Blazers now...

Terrence Williams is a popular sleeper pick, he plays like a point forward and if he gets minutes will put up something like 15-5-5, no guarentee on the minutes but more worth of a roster spot then T-Mac is for sure.

Go further down that list of FAs.

I personally like James Harden over Dorrell Wright (both are fourth options on offense but Harden has a good chance to be a bigger contributor and was a top-five pick last year, plus has looked great in preseason.)

I'd also keep an eye on Marvin Williams, Ramon Sessions, and Austin Daye, who I'm assuming is also available deeper in your FA list. All of those guys could be in for good years depending on how much PT they get. Marvin is supposedly looking better in Atlanta's new offense.

I think guys like Evan Turner and Calderon are ultimately expendable on your team, but you can wait and see who plays well out of the gate before dropping them. I would pick up Hickson, Harden, and Terrence Williams now, if you haven't already.

Serge Ibaka over Marreese Speights.
D.J. Augustin probably over Jose Calderon, who might lose his job again.
Wilson Chandler or Terrence Williams or Evan Turner are about even to me.
J.J. Hickson over Tracy McGrady.
