PG: Rose/Rondo/Nate Rob

Rose is looking fantastic so far. He has a chance with his new found proficiency from downtown to better his fantasy value from 2010. I'm expecting 25.5/7.5/4.5 with a steal and 3 per game. Rondo is a wild card imo,he'll either come back and average 15/10 or struggle. He also can't shoot great and has TO issues.

Nate Rob is a decent backup guard who'll put up nice numbers in stretches.

SG: Turner/(nate rob can play here too)

Turner has a fantasy friendly game with his 7 rebounds and 5 dimes a game but struggles with shooting and TOs. It's a make it or break it year for him.

SF: Thad Young/Parsons

Thad was a beast last year and is a great glue guy. I really really like him on the shallow as hell sixers,great under the radar pick here. He should continue his 16/8/2/1/2 ways with no trouble. Parsons will also be a great all around asset in houston with d12/harden etc,he could gain PF elig.

PF: Sanders/Harris

Sanders should come close to the league lead in blocks and hopefully average 13 PPG or so. He's the only true C on the bucks besides zaza(who's hurt) so he'll have all the minutes he can handle.
MIL really screwed up sending harris to ORL. His numbers will be similar to thads but harris is younger and is all upside.

C: Howard/Asik/Hawes

Superman should beast in houston and is the #1 center in a league like this. He had a "down" year last year but still averaged 17/12/2 so he shouldn't have trouble getting to 20. I really like him in HOUs uptempo attack. Asik and hawes aren't great but are servicable.

Overall this is a strong squad with good depth. Hopefully rondo comes back strong. You need an extra SG fwiw.

Thanks a lot, man. As a 2nd year fantasy basketball player, I'm excited with my draft.

Precisely why I'm looking to move Asik. Hoping for something minimal for depth.

ETA: For everyone else, Asik is on the block for very cheap.

Chris Paul scored 40 points in a game-high 42 minutes during Saturday's overtime victory vs. the Nuggets in Las Vegas, making 13-of-21 FGs and 12-of-13 FTs.


He also had seven rebounds, 11 assists and five turnovers without any steals. CP3 never topped 33 points during the regular season last year and he topped 42 minutes on just two occasions, so a 40-point eruption in a meaningless game might serve as a statement to the league. The arrival of Doc Rivers improves Paul's outlook for the 2013-14 season, he's been able to rest all summer, and he's at least in the discussion as the No. 3 pick in fantasy drafts.




that #4 pick my not be looking so bad right now drake.

Did Harden or Curry go 3? If Harden was there, he wouldve been tempting but CP > Curry IMO. Not sure why Drake was mad, probably just hates CP

Lobos has been kind enough to rate everyone's team, we should repay the favor and give our input on his. I'll do a write up when I sit down at the computer

PG: Curry/Ellis/Lou Will

Strong one-two punch i curry/ellis. Curry is arguably the best guard in the league when he's on,he'll have no trouble with 25.0/7.0/4.0 with 2 steals a game. I was thinking of him at 3
Ellis should get back to 20 PPG in dallas while providing 6 assists and 1.5 steals. Thankfully he's more effiecient now than in the past.

Lou will won't help you much

SG: Granger/Oladipo

I loved the oladipo pick fwiw. He's already showing he can stuff the stat sheet and as soon as jameer succumbs to his usual injury,Dipo could explode and be a monster. Espn is low on his assists,he'll average 4.5 imo. Granger is a question mark but he'll provide decent value.

SF: Josh Smith/Galinari

Smoove obviously can provide stats across the board(7.5 RPG/3.0 Ast/almost 2 steals/blocks)the main question is how efficient he'll be? He can chuck like no tommorrow and sink your FG%,or will he finally not take so many jumpshots? We'll see.

Gallo is a stash honestly,he'll hopefully be back by christmas. I'm expecting 13.5 PPG with 6+ Boards.

PF: Aldridge/Derrick Williams

LMA will be a solid 20/10 guy as usual. The only thing is he'll have his minutes kept down a bit due to new depth on the blazers. D-will is buried a bit on the bench behind love but he'll put up nice low-end numbers.

C: Brook Lopez/Bogut

Brook had a great bounceback last year and should be strong again, but i'm worried a bit about the many mouths to feed in BKN. He'll still be a 16.5/7 guy with 2 blocks. Bogut is a health risk but will give double doubles.

Overall it's a balanced squad but has a few question marks imo

PG- Deron Williams, Dragic, Jamal Crawford

You got an INCREDIBLE steal with DWill in the late 2nd. Solid crew right here with Dragic as a reserve

SG- Harden, Tyreke Evans

Best SG in the league, enough said there. Evans could be a high upside player in the up tempto Pelican offense...if he stays healthy.

SF- Luol Deng, Al Farouq Aminu

Deng should see a pullback in stats from last year now with DRose healthy. Deng was called upon to be the main man last year. He will still be a solid starting SF, but won't put up the stats he did last year. Aminu is meh, take your Peli-goggles off

PF- Bosh, Tiago Splitter

While Bosh doesn't put up the blocks you would like in a big man, his percentages are nice and he is efficient. In this scoring setting, Bosh is a solid PF. Splitter is a great late round pick and will be a good fill in for Bosh

C- Noah, Kanter

Always an injury risk, but Noah is a points league beast when he plays. Kanter proved last year that he can perform well when given the chance. High upside pick right there.



Overall- many multi positional players which will help get your 28 max starts each week. Very solid team overall with SF being your only weak spot. Definitely a contending team.
