Gordon and Lopez advice 

Post#1 » by K-Town King » Fri Feb 3, 2012 11:12 pm

Hey guys. What would you do in my situation? Right now my current lineup is this:

Kyle Lowry
Ray Allen
Jarrett Jack
Steph Curry
Mo Williams
Marcus Thornton
Paul Pierce
Landry Fields
Thad Young
Demarcus Cousins
Marcin Gortat
Pau Gasol
Brendan Haywood

Currently my team is 3 games out of the playoffs. Still very early. I drafted Eric Gordon with my 3rd round pick but I decided I had to drop him with injuries. I also had Bogut which I had to drop for Haywood. My question do you feel it would be worth it to pick up either Eric Gordon and/or Brook Lopez as both are FA's right now.

that's a tough choice. first of all, i'd grab lopez over gordon as his timetable could be mid- to late-feb.

i think it's bad news when a players' injury turns chronic and his timetable keeps getting delayed, so i'm not too optimistic about gordon coming back before march, esp w/ a team that has nothing to play for

i'd drop haywood for lopez, although i'd really like to wait a week before i did that. in a perfect world anyway.

Ya I've just been biding my team trying to see how long I can keep Haywood without Lopez getting picked up. It's starting to get to that time that I may need to pick him up soon though. Ginobili already got picked up by my friend in our league.

Parker
duncan
Nene
Rubio
Mo Will

Luis Scola

i would drop haywood for lopez. when lopez gets back, theyre gonna be getting him the ball. if gordon comes back, they have a bit more to work with on the offensive end.
