OFFICIAL 2014-2015 FANTASY BASKETBALL THREAD

thoughts on my team? Had the 7th pick.

PG: Russell Westbrook, Jose Calderon, Mario Chalmers
SG: Monta Ellis, JR Smith
SF: Jeff Green, Channing Frye
PF: Al Horford, David West, John Henson
C: Al Jefferson, Tim Duncan, Robin Lopez

Yahoo, 12-team, h2h, $

I went big men & pg's mostly for my first 9-10 picks. Figured I could fill out the rest toward the end.
your team looks fine. not a fan of that strategy though
 
NT league, 10-teamer:
PG Bledsoe
SG Batum
G Ellis
SF LeBron
PF Bosh
F Faried
C Valanciunas
UTIL Oladipo
UTIL Josh Smith
BN Hibbert
BN Taj Gibson
BN Darren Collison
BN DeMarre Carroll
BN Alec Burks
BN Kanter
BN Tristan Thompson
 
Yahoo, 12 man league

Thoughts on this team? Ended up having to autodraft my money league team because I had a shift at the hospital at 4 in the morning and I live on the east coast while all my friends live on the west coast and started the draft at 10 PM.

Don't really like my bigs, but the guard play seems solid, depending on how Beverly develops as full time PG and Rondo back from injury. Thoughts? Thanks fellas

your bigs are more than solid. bigs are easily picked up during the season so dont worry about that. i'd be more worried about having MCW and rondo on the team because thats basically two dead bodies for the first few weeks and will seriously hold you back. not a fan of drafting injured players at all

overall team is solid. i would hold off on manu. draymond is a sleeper this year and can definitely fill the stat sheet. burk has been killing it in the preseason as well and should have a break out year

this team is great but for a 10 man league im sure everyones team is good. i would prefer a team with more wing players though. lots of bench spots..not sure why

12 team league. i took melo with my 1st pick (8th pick).

if i knew KD was gonna fall that far i would have gone with someone else

we play in a H2H 9 cat league.

i usually don't focus on assists, but not too sure how i feel about my team. wish i could get someone with more block potential without giving up ft%.
That Melo/KD combo is vicious. Your bigs are decent but you might need to make some moves. Don't like Mozgov on your squad, he negates what your squad does (elite FT%). Enes Kanter would be a nice 4th-string compliment to Pau/Vuc/RobLo.

You shouldn't have punted assists though because 3PM is a category you can always find on waiver (Anthony Morrow, Teletovic, etc). You can probably trade Korver straight up for a low end PG like Trey Burke or Lin or package Korver/Hill for a combo PG like Oladipo/Monta because you need steals too. Jarrett Jack is also a better PG option than DJ, so grab him if he's still lurking waivers

Your Cs are way stong. I think even if you traded one of them, you'd still be in decent shape. 
You desperately need swingmen though. You can afford to lose Duncan, Green and JR Smith. You can prob get Kawhi for a Duncan/Jeff Green combo package. If not, try and do a trade with a team that has Jimmy Butler because you can probably get him on the cheap. Butler/Monta/Westbrook all averaged 1.9 swipes a game last season and would look reeeeaaal nice on your squad

Burk and Green would be my first to drop fot wavier and you are lacking with the 3s( Anderson and Frye should make up a good gap tho) but everything else looks fine.

Your bigs are really solid. You couldb probably move one of them for a better small forward. Not a big fan of Jeff Green this year especially if Rondo gets moved.
 
ESPN NT Finest 2.0 draft has been changed to to Friday 9 ET. There are still more spots available just PM me if you want in
 
The leagues with so many bench spots, are these public leagues or like friends and family leagues? 5 or 6 bench spots is OD :lol:
 
Should I pick up Paul George in my dynasty league? No one drafted him so I'm thinking of stashing him. We have an IR spot in my league but it is currently occupied by Bradley Beal.

definitely in a dynasty league but i wouldnt jump on PG so quickly if hes under the radar and no one is thinking about stashing
 
Got the 2nd overall pick in my draft this week. 10 man league , 11 cat. I know you guys must be thinking...11 cat? What on earth. Our commissioner added double doubles and triple doubles to our league last year. LOL. 90% of the time the Triple double cat would end up in a draw with both guys going head to head not having a player record one.

thanks for the advice bros! I appreciate it. I kind of wanna see how this team plays for a few weeks, but I might try to explore some preseason trades for sg/sf since I know I kind of OD on PF/C's lol. thanks again
 
I have the 5th pick in my long standing draft and I'm leaning towards Demarcus Cousins. Something about Paul and Anthony just doesn't excite me this year.

melo will definitely get his numbers and paul is a very solid pg with amazing %s. dmc is good with the blk/stls but i think you can take drummond or milsap along with melo or cp3 if you want dmc-like numbers
 
with paul george and KD dropping out of the first round in this years draft, its tough for people in the later positions to draft since they gotta take guys like wall/ibaka/DMC in the first round
 
I would still take KD in the first round. I am sure I will make the playoffs.......I am not worried about few weeks of regular season games that are missed. But PG would be taking 4/5 round maybe later
