Sure, why not. Good call...

PG: Barbosa
SG: Kevin Martin
G: T-Mac
SF: Corey Maggette
PF: Amare Stoudamire
F: Al Horford
C: Dwight Howard
C: Luis Scola
Util: Tayshaun Prince
Util: Shaq Diesel Baby

BENCH:

- Rafer Alston
- Louis Williams
- Russell Westbrook


Observations:

- I have BY FAR the best collection of big men of anyone. It is not even close. Amare and DHo are top 5 posts. Add in Horford, Scola, and SHAQ and I've got FG%, Rebounds, and Blocks on lockdown.
- I will not get many assists this year. Oh well, I'll score a gazillion points.
- T-Mac if healthy is a fantasy stud. People ALWAYS overlook him.
- Kevin Martin is going to be Top 5 in PPG this year. Write it down.
- Maggette is going to be a fantasy stud as well. He is going to be one of the main options on a high octane GS team (especially with Ellis out and Baron gone.) Also, he gets to the FT line a ton. I think he is top 5 in the league in that.
- My bench is above average, but not great. Then again, who needs a bench when you start 10 of 13 players.

Red Lanterns

PG: Brandon Roy
SG: Kevin Durant
G: Tony Parker
SF: Michael Beasley
PF: Kevin Garnett
F: Al Jefferson
C: Emeka Okafor
C: Zydrunas Ilgauskas

Util: Ryan Gomes
Util: Mikael Pietrus

BN: James Posey
BN: Manu Ginobli
BN: Cuttino Mobley


Not unhappy with that crew; Roy is a fantasy stud and I should get excellent numbers in boards and blocks (Jefferson, Ilgauskas and Okafor are all top 20 in both categories last season).

I'm going to struggle for assists and perhaps points some weeks.

And I hold the trump card - Ryan Gomes.

@ CW: You do luckily have the best collection of big men, but that's because somehow Dwight dropped down to the 21st pick, when he is low Round 1-high Round 2 quality. Horford is a solid C as well, but I can't say the same to Scola and Shaq. Scola's value is only going to go down now that Artest is there, meaning McGrady, Artest, and Yao will all be on the floor at the same time (Both McGrady/Artest are significantly big for their position, meaning bye bye Scola boards). Shaq is primed to go down, I honestly can't believe him playing more than 50-60 games this season. As far as locking up rebounds, I'm not so sure. You have 1 of the top 15 rebounders (Based on last season's stats of course), even though he was the leader. I'll get to me below.

PG: Andre Miller
SG: Mike Bibby
G: Kirk Hinrich
SF: LeBron James
PF: Gerald Wallace
F: David Lee
C: Tim Duncan
C: Carlos Boozer
Util: Zach Randolph
Util: Ricky Davis

Bench: Mike Conley
Bench: Marc Gasol
Bench: Boris Diaw



I consider this one of my worst drafts of this season, being my last draft. I've had consistently low picks (11th pick twice), so I was coming from a completely different angle this time, meaning different strategy. I think I have a solid battle for rebounds, as I have 3 of the top 15 rebounders, and that doesn't include David Lee who's going to be the starting Knicks center. I truly believe he will get at least 10 boards a game. I have a good battle for the assist winner as well, with Andre Miller who'll be passing to the likes of Brand instead of Reggie Evans this year. Hinrich was a colossal flop last year, not to mention he has Rose sharing the guard minutes with. However, I think after last season (Where we averaged over 6 dimes a game), he can only go up in my opinion. Bibby went on a tear once he went to ATL, averaging 6.5 assists and over 1 steal a game. Not much you can say about LBJ, last year averaging 30/7/7. Though I hardly have anyone that can block on my team (Aside from LBJ and TD), all my guys can shoot decent %'s both FG and FT. Main thing is, my big men all shoot good %'s, giving me a good shot at winning those cats. As far as steals go, I think I'm definitely ahead of the pack in that department. With Crash and LBJ putting in nearly 2 steals a game and the support of my guards all averaging over 1 steal a game (Even all my big men average close to a steal a game, something that not all PF's/C's can do), I'm looking pretty good.

My bench, not much to say about it. Diesel is going down in Phoenix for sure, and when that happens, Diaw's value is gonna skyrocket. The only other guys fighting for minutes at BOTH the 4 and 5 is Brian Skinner and Robin Lopez. Come on now. Tricky Ricky is close to my bench too, but he's a great glue guy who's value will only improve in Clipper Land with BD feeding him for open shots. He's also gonna share the ball handling duties, providing decent assist value, on top of his 3, rebounds, and steal potential. Conley is gonna be given the reigns in Memphis, though he does have competition in Lowry, but I'm expecting a breakout year for him. Gasol is also a pure prospect, but he's expected to start for Memphis as far as I know, but obviously Darko "The Human Victory Cigar" will be trying to take those minutes, and then there's that Iranian guy too, but Marc is just a bigger, offensively challenged version of Pau, so I expect him to be good on the offensive put-backs.

Shall be a good year

Blah. I will get beat in the assists and rebounds categories every week. I'll compete in the 3pts, pts and steals category most weeks I think.

I wish I could have made the draft (or set my pre-rankings), I saw the draft results and I would have drafted my team way different. Namely I would have taken Bosh over Marion in the first round and then probably picked someone else in the second round besides Danny (even though he is my favorite NBA player).

I still can't believe you did that... man, I thought we were friends!?!?

That hurts... ugh, man... you cut me deep.

I thought we had all secretly agreed that Gomes was off-limits for everyone? Way to break the pact!


Lol, just kidding about all that... or am I?

Re:TWolves Blog Fantasy League 1 Month, 1 Week ago Howls: 113  
Yo Leo -

First off, let me just say that I love debating fantasy teams and drafts and whatnot. So, don't take anything I say too personally or seriously

Now... Scola and Shaq are great additions to my team for two reasons: 1) I already have three studly big men so S&S don't have to do a ton of the heavy lifting, so to speak and 2) Since there are so many roster spots I can play S&S without costing me anything in return (basically.)

About Scola, I don't see how Artest hurts him. Scola can play Center or PF, so Artest won't be taking his minutes. Scola didn't play a whole lot at the beginning of the year last year, but rather played much, much more as the season went on (and his stats got waaaaaaaaaay better as the season went on as well.) If anything I think he will be much BETTER this year than last year. Overall the Rockets will be a better team and he's more used to his teammates. Scola is a very good player.

Shaq is the man. I don't care what anyone says. Sure, he's lost a step but he still has good boards, blocks, and FG%. Also, it sounds like he is healthy and has been working out hard for this season. I think he will have a very good fantasy year. I could see him averaging 13 ppg and 9 rpg. Can't complain about that from my 5th big man!

Lastly, Boris Diaw sucks. I don't care how you spin it, he's just awful. No offense intended.

What do you want for Hakim Warrick? Let's trade...
