Untroubled, I'd have to say Brook Lopez right now, because it looks like he's stole the starting position from Boone, and Magloire is coming back relatively soon for MIA, so Udonis' stock is bound to drop.

I talked to a few NJ Nets fans and they said that Lawrence Frank is the type of guy who doesn't let a guy who gets injured lose his job. Itmay seem that Brook has outplayed Boone, but Frank's tendencies are to still give Boone the starting job until he fails at it. However, I still picked upBrook Lopez in my leagues, hoping for Brook to start after a couple of games after Boone comes back.

Elton Brand

I'd say do it. I expect Elton to regain his form later on in the season. Looks like you'll just lose in 3's with giving up J-Rich andBillups but it looks like you'll win on the rebounds and scoring. Can you afford to lose on 3's? That's the only think I'm seeing thatyou're going to lose on.

Oh my fault, It's not Josh Howard, it's Dirk. So replacing Dirk for Howard would you do it?

Ehh... that sort of changes things. I think I'd change my mind and go with Billups, Richardson, and Nowitzki. Josh Howard made that much of adifference

So anything new on Dunleavy?

 

[mustbetheshoe58]

should i drop collison for wilcox? looks like wilcox is back on the bench after injury, but is getting starter minutes. should i make the move?

 

[japanair21]

Collison and Wilcox are both terribly inconsistent.

 

[jordan201]

Are either of these players worth trading for?

Emeka
Thorton
Aldridge

Give me that trade in a heartbeat. Kobe and Duncan for Wade? C'mon man, you jump on that deal. And if you were wondering who drop, I'ddrop Matt Barnes.

 

[nike4kja05]

Take the trade. Duncan's numbers are going to flourish even more now that parker and ginobili are back and kobe is well, he's kobe!

 

[eaglebball1499]

C'mon dude, you gotta take that trade. Wade is nice this year but you're getting two great players in return, one of whom is C-eligible.

[Los Angeles]

lets see who'll take amare

 

[jordan201]

I Get:
Danny Granger

I give:
Ronnie Brewer
Kevin Durant

 

[rfx45]

^^^ I wouldn't even think twice.
But thats just me.

Your team is actually pretty solid. The only category I see you lagging in is probably assists. Chauncy won't throw 10 assists a game andneither will Mo Williams. Maybe try packaging Mo and Jamal Crawford for Calderon

Other news for Pietrus owners me being one

Magic shooting guard Mickael Pietrus will miss three-to-five weeks with a torn ulnar collateral ligament in his right thumb.
J.J. Redick will start at shooting guard on Saturday and is probably worth a pickup in deep leagues. With Keith Bogans out with a fractured thumb, Courtney Leewill also be leaned on heavily, especially while Jameer Nelson (hip) remains out.

I'm dropping him now.

 

[animal fries]

Thanks for the input

I'm going to do the trade. He made another trade offer of KB+Timmy+Kevin Love for Wade+Deng but I'm not going to accept thatone. Hopefully this trade doesn't get vetoed in my league

 

[jordan201]

I get:
Biedrins

I give:
J-Craw

Yay or Nay?

 

[japanair21]

Yes.

Everyday.
