Yeah it sucks when these things happens. Thats why I usually join 3 different leagues. In one of my leagues every week I got a player injured, it was ridiculous. When Bibby came back, I was like finally i'll have a healthy team but then Bynum goes down.

I was pretty frustrated early on as well. Hinrich, Gasol, JO were playing horribly. T-Mac and Bibby injured. I'm just trying to make the playoffs.

There was a point in the season when I had Arenas, TJ Ford, Aldridge, Gasol and McGrady out at the same time.

Did you drop any one of them? I hate when a "star" gets injured, i'm always tempted to drop the player and pick up someone who can fill in for him even though the stats are lesser than the injured player. Then I pick up the player again a week before he comes back but im always paranoid thinking that someone might pick them up before I do.

lol. I usually join 3 leagues as well. I usually draft 3 teams but only really prioritize one team for roster changes and waiver pick ups. This season I only drafted one team myself. That's my all-injured team. In one of the other leagues the team was auto picked for me and is super nasty. I don't make any roster changes and didnt draft one player, yet I remain in first place.

If i ever become a GM I suppose I'll consult yahoo player rankings when looking for players.

I see you have Biedrins, I have him too. I'm kinda disappointed with his stats this season. I expected more.

My mistake this season is that I set up my draft rankings according to players who I feel will blow up this season like I put Bynum and Biedrins a little higher and put players who are injury prone lower like Camby for example because I thought he would be injured a lot this year but that's clearly not the case.

I kept Arenas for way too long, but had to drop him when T-mac and Ford went down around the same time. With 3 of my top 6 or 7 players out, I was simply losing too much ground.

Ford/Arenas are off my roster today, and I don't regret that a bit.
