      I've made a lot of moves to get as many top players as I can; in fact I have 8 in the top 20. My goal was to do a lot of 3-for-2's or 4-for-3's to have a smaller number of higher ranked players to make room for Brand and Bibby as sleepers. The only problem is, outside the top 8 and Brand and Bibby, the other 3 players are just waiver fodder (that is unless Kirk Hinrich turns it around). Who do you think would make the best complements for my big 8?

      PG: Chris Paul
      SG: Kobe Bryant
      G: Steve Nash
      SF: Lebron James
      PF: Shawn Marion
      F: Caron Butler
      C: Amare Stoudemire
      C: Yao Ming
      Util: Anderson Varejao
      Util: Kirk Hinrich
      BN: Elton Brand
      BN: Mike Bibby
      [empty]

      The reason the empty is there is because I just traded Rudy Gay and Emeka Okafor for Steve Nash (see the pattern?). I am thinking of picking up James Jones, Carlos Delfino, Wally Sczerbiak, or David Lee. Please shoot out a couple of free agents that would help complement what the big 8 bring to the table. Thanks.

        By the way, I'm 2nd in a 10 team head-to-head league. I'm behind by 1.5 games in a 13-cat league (default 9 with 3PTM, A/T, PF, and O-REB). I was easily in first before three weeks ago, but then injuries to Lebron and Duncan (who I had at the time) left me to a roster of 9 players and I got smoked. I've made a sizable comeback since then, but it's still a little too close for comfort. I've dominated my last weeks though with a combined score of 19-7.

        your team looks GREATTT.......... and i dont think it matters if you have hinrich or verajo on a team like dat, you have first place ON LOCK in your league.

        the only thing i can think of is maybe get david lee for anderson verajo, but it realli should make a big difference

      In a 16 team league I had 15th pick, and this is how my team ended up:

      Monta Ellis PG/SG
      Raymond Felton PG/SG
      Gerald Wallace SF/PF
      Pau Gasol PF/C
      Marcus Camby C
      Tyson Chandler C
      Anderson Varejao PF/C
      Rafer Alston PG
      Devin Harris PG
      DeShawn Stevenson SG
      Morris Peterson SG/SF
      Jamario Moon SF

      I start 1 PG 1 SG 1 SF 1 PF 2 C 1 Util daily.

      I typically win 5 lose 7 categories.

      FGM FG% FTM FT% 3PTM PTS and TO are the ones I lose.

      3PT% REB AST ST & BLK I dominate.



      I just traded Biedrins for Gerald Wallace, and was wondering which other players you would recommend I target to help in those categories.

      Also your feelings on Gasol? I've never owned him but was expecting much more, and am getting anxious to deal him for a PG.

        well what u need it a big scorer on your team......... try trading tyson chandler for a scorer. all chandler is doing is giving u rebounds and blocks( 2 categories your alreadi good in) but he is not giving you enuff point production and his free throw percentage is horrible........

        reshard lewis is somebody i think will help your team greatly(he's a true buy low guy rite now)......... try getting him for chandler straight up

        and also for the gasol thing.......... HOLD ON TO HIM, its not often where u get a big man that gives u that kind of percentages while putting up the regular big man numbers........... plus he had a nice game in his last game so look for him to be back in bizness

      This guy wants to trade away Jamison and J-Rich for two other players. They would be great adds to my team, but he's rejected two of my offers so far (S-Jax and Brewer; Brewer, Salmons, Gooden). He thought the 3 for 2 trade was fair (????) but didn't want to dropp any of his other players...here's my team. Which two should I give up for Jamison and Richardson??
      Thanks!

      BD, Ray Allen, Melo, Dwight, Gooden, SJax, Richard Jefferson, Josh Smith, Watson,Salmons, Brewer, Aldridge...He wants FG%, FT%, Blks and Stls...

      I have a trade I'm not sure about

      I get James
      Butler
      Gibson
      Davis
      Thomas
      Sheed

      I am last in threes and third to last in asts

      J.Howard
      D.Howard
      Hill
      Dalembert
      Kirilenko
      Haslem

      Howard is killing my FT, plus I have Marion, Camby, Bynum for my defense and rebounds.

      A second opinion is always good
      Thanks for the advice
