heres a question for yall on a standard 9 cat 10 team league. who would you take at 4th and why? its between curry, harden, paul and love?
 
Oh I'm about to contribute a lot in this thread. Won my money league last year. 2nd time in 3 years.
 
Whoever decides to create a #NT league first just shoot me a PM. Thanks :pimp:

any mock drafts around? been looking online. nothing unless you want to pay rotoworld
 
lets help each other out by sharing our sleeper picks.
ill start.

bosh. with LeBron out the way. bosh should have a break out year. easy 20 10 guy
kobe. coming out of injury with a year rest. he should be good to go.
young. I feel like it could be his break out year.
david west. with George and Stevenson out, hes probably going to pick up the load
Stevenson. he had a lot of triple doubles last year. with a new team he should break out
 
imo, sleeper picks are players that can be scooped in the late rounds e.g. after the top 100. Any tips for H2H draft strategy? PG is so deep that I'm all for punting assists. If I can't get CP3 or Curry, I'll stack bigs esp. passing bigs (Monroe, Lee, Gasol) and grab PGs in the middle to late rounds.

[COLOR=#red]Sleepers[/COLOR]
Markieff Morris, 6th man of the year candidate last year and will be get an easy 30 mpg with Frye gone. Has 1 3PM, 1 BPG, 1 SPG potential.
Terrence Jones, nice complement to D12, Asik, Lin, and Parsons gone, and this guy will get major run.
Jeremy Lin, Nash is done for and Lin should get some nice burn and out do last year's 4.1 APG
Draymond Green, might start over Iggy and stepped up big time when D Lee went down. Per 36 #s are something like 10 PPG 8 RPG.
Jordan Hill, will get some more run with Gasol gone and Davis/ Boozer aren't major threats to his value. Put up 15/10 last 16 games of the season in only 27 MPG.
Solomon Hill/ CJ Miles, Hill offers greater upside w/ P.G. down and both will be competing for the starting SF job.
Jeff Green, huge bust last year but should improve his efficiency with Rondo setting him up.
Alec Burks, should thrive in Synder's new fast paced offense and likely to start at SG.
Jared Sullinger, only 22 years old and a rebounding beast. Rondo will be dishing to him all day.
Amare Stoudemire, worth a last round flyer. Contract year? Bargnani is made out of glass so Amare might be an ideal sell high candidate.

my strategy for h2h is to mold my team after my first pick. for example if I have kd then I don't have to worry about any specific category as he helps in all.
if I have a late round pick then ill try to target ibaka and blake. then I would later target howard and punt ft.

Will be keeping my eye on John Henson and Gorgui Dieng.

*I'm hoping Henson will get more PT this year. He played well for a good time last year.

*Dieng also needs to be given an opportunity to shine. They need to move Pekovic or sub him in and out to allow for them monster double-doubles.
 
I got you NT-

Sleepers:

Jonas Valanciunas - Played awesome in FIBA - 22 years old, getting better every year, more play time every year, no one else in Toronto for contention in his spot.

Patrick Beverly- Lin is out, Beverly is undisputed starting PG, he's not going to get you 10 assists or anything, but a great late round pick with steals.

Elfrid Payton- Orlando announced he will be the starting PG, his game is similar to MCW imo, watch out for HIGH TURNOVERS. Watched him in summer league, put up 7 TOs wit near triple double

Jordan Hill- Just signed to LAL for 2 yr 19 million. Starting Center. Was putting up double-doubles when D'antoni would let him play more than 20 mins.

Giannis Anteto- Gary Payton working with him and Jason kidd put him at PG for summer league, said they're going to be exploring putting him as 6'10 PG
eek.gif
. Upside is big, might fail tho.

Terrence Jones- Asik shipped over to New Orleans, TJ going to have bigger role/more minutes.

Josh McBob- Signed by Heat, I would imagine he gets the starting nod over Chris Anderson/Haslem. Stretch 4 who assists, good fit for them.

Matt Barnes- Starting SF for Clippers, shipped off Jared Dudley, theyre only other viable options are going small at the 3 with jamal Crawford.

Andrei Kirilenko - Paul pierce shipped off from Nets, AK47 WILL be getting minutes at the 3 and small ball 4. 

Amare Stoudemire - STAT is out of the doghouse in NY. Tyson Chandler starting C, shipped off for backup C Dalembert. Contract year, Triangle offense will help him.

thanks. ill check this list out.

I hear ya.

2013: 24 mins 9 points 6 boards

2014: 28 mins 11 points 9 boards

2015: My guess: 31 mins 15 pts, 10 boards

Not going to bring down the house, but for your 11-13th bench pick, very serviceable.
 
Just hope Casey gives him consistent minutes, He would play 35 min one game, then like 15 the next. Then he'd play 30 min, and 20 the next. It was mad annoying.

its because JV cant bang with the bigs down low and gets into foul trouble. amir johnson plays better C for them

can't wait for the season to start. won my 12 man league last year and been doing mocks for 2 weeks now. i feel like this year there is too much talent and that everyone should be playing 14man+ leagues or it will be too easy to get quality players off waivers

my sleepers this year:

jodie meeks

cj miles

josh mcrob

taj gibson

markieff morris

greg monroe

busts:

drose

all of PHX guards

tony parker

top 10:

KD

LBJ

AD

harden

paul

curry

melo

love

LA

Westbrook

I wouldn't trust jv.

I feel that if you can get ersan late. he might get a good year
 
- Amir Johnson, that boy bout to cook.

- Dieng, dude was a monster with minutes when Pek was out.

- Terrence Ross and Terrence Jones, both are wayyy down below in the draft pile.

- Miles Plumlee, a late pick with double double potential.
 
My ultimate sleeper list I try to draft in all my league..

PG/SG: Jarrett Jack - Starting SG in BKN. Hollins has said he'll try to play Jack & Deron together as much as he can. Should eat up Livingston's/Pierce's PT. Solid 5th guard option and will likely put up similar #s to when he was in GS.

SG/SF: Danny Green - yall can probably get him in 11th-end of your draft. Despite his rocky start last year, he's a 1/1/1 guard with elite %s this late is a major steal (finished last season with 79th ORank).
Post all star numbs: 11.5 ppg / 46% FG / 2.6 3PM / 1.1 SPG / 0.9 BPG

PF/C: Enes Kanter - Doesn't get blocks, but Rotoworld reporting that he's going to be taking 3's this year. Amazing % game considering where his ranking (150). Looking at a potential Mehmet Okur-lite.

Pre Allstar last season: 24MPG - 49% FG / 71% FT / 11.6 PPG / 6.2 REB / 0.6 BPG 

Post Allstar : 29MPG - 48% FG / 74% FT / 13.6 PPG / 9.7 REB / 0.4 BPG
