Dropped Jodie Meeks and picked up McBob to try and compensate for Brook Lopez being out. Good move?
Can't wait for the season to start. For the first week I'm matched up with my roommate who's playing for the first time too.

McBob does great things for a late-round C and is a 1/1/1 but the fact that he put up the numbers he did last season with the 30MPG he got last year + when you factor in how slim the Bobcats frontline was, is a little bit concerning. If you're in a 12-team league, I'd much rather have another owner grab McBob and pick up Plumlee instead as insurance because there's no way BroLo finishes the season playing more than 66 games (he has no minute cap this season).
I'm really high on Melo just based on the system he's playing on this season. Gotta gut feeling his assists could rise to 4APG while still continuing his 2 3PM/1steal/1 block numbers with a higher efficiency. You know what you get with Paul and Cousins, but be prepared for CP3 to miss 20 games maximum as usual. Paul's SPG is too good to not rank him over these guys. I'd rank it: 1. Paul 2. Melo 3. Cousins. There's A LOT of good Cs this season, so you could pass on Cousins (you can get Marc in round 3 who has similar value)

WARNING TO THOSE THAT JOIN THIS MAN'S LEAGUE!!!
I knew his name/email looked familiar. The guy I talked about on the first page of this fantasy ball thread is him.
I did a little research and it was him that ran that 14 man NT league 2 years ago and tried to cheat and help another person win during playoff week. @vcshoxj6 ended up winning it all despite it all.
Here is the thread: http://niketalk.com/t/511482/2012-official-nba-fantasy-basketball-thread/1950

Yeah I definitely would like Plumlee but he's already signed to another team. I'm in a 14-team league if that changes anything. McBob looked like the best option to me and I (foolishly) still have hope in Lopez lol.

What is this like a 10 team league?
Steals and assists are a win, strong FT% , you'll also compete in 3s and blocks. I wouldn't worry about SG/SFs too much because that's a hard position to fill out. If I were you though, I'd trade Hibbert for sure and maybe Rubio based on his FG% (DeAndre's FT you don't have to worry about because he doesn't take enough attempts a game to affect your team). If you need an SG, maybe make a package for a Monta (SG eligibility and elite steals) or a Goran Dragic (SG eligibility and good %s compliment Al Jeff/Steph well) but if you don't feel like overpaying for a player Jimmy Butler would be a nice addition (1.9 swipes) or Ariza (3PM + steals)

10 team league
Right now, this is what my team looks like. Thoughts?
Kyrie
Steph Curry
Wade
Lance Stephenson
Bradley Beal
Joe Johnson
Tyreke
Terrence Ross
Kenneth Faried
Deandre Jordan
Nikola Vucevic
Hibbert
Josh McRoberts
Thinking about moving DeAndre for someone with higher percentages...

Yep, 10 teams.
Thanks for the tip. I read Rubio has been working on his shot during the off-season, and I really hope that's true.

Noel and McDaniels should have some nice defensive stats. MCW always puts up good lines. Wroten will probably be chucking up a ton of shots.

MCW is out til mid-November, so Wroten will be good to have
McDaniels has been blocking shots like crazy this preseason.
Noel of course.
Henry Sims is starting as well I think. He had a great post-all star.

The players I have that are worth dumping is Beverly, Ersan, and Danilo. Is it worth dumping one of them for Sims?
