    I have zaza as my centre right now...should i attempt to package him up and trade him away while his stock is high? OR is he going to be solid throughout the whole season?

    James Jones seems to be going to be a player off the bench...is it still D'antoni's stupid experiments or is this permanent thing? Should i trade him before his value falls further...?

    I am thinking whether i should waive kaman on my bench and add collison...they are pretty even in my opinion....collison is better % wise...collison is better in rebounds...what i am looking at is the potential of getting playing time, I THINK collison has more chance of getting starter min than kaman does (although kaman is a starter right now but avg back up playing time)



    What you guys think?

    Collison will likely be the most added player in the next couple of days. He's pushing to be the starter in Seattle, and Reggie Evans is playing himself into 3rd on the depth chart.

    I also have James Jones and it's frustrating to deal with all of D'Antoni's experiments. Still he's doing what he does best, which is making a lot of 3's.

    Zaza should be putting up those numbers all season long. The only potential shakeup could be if the Hawks trade Al Harrington for a big man.

    John Salmons. Like I said in numerous threads John Salmons can easily average 12 PPG off the bench, so be on the look out for him. Thus far he is averaging 10 PPG on 50% shooting. I personally expect those 10 PPG to turn into 12 PPG and that 50% shooting to go down to an acceptable 44-45% shooting. Nevertheless I think you should keep a tab on him.

    If you aren't already aware of the year the Okur is having for the Jazz, go check out his stats. The man is a fantasy stud, and centers are hard to come by.

    he is drafted in 6th round in my league already...oh well

    the waiver wire players that are "decent" in my league (or the so-called...what's left of it) are kenny thomas (waived in favour of Al jefferson), livingston (waived in favour of demarr johnson), olowokondi (waived in favour of channing frye), dunleavy (waived in favour of giricek), harpring (waived in favour or may), kaman (waived in favour of collison), croshere (waived in favour of bobby jackson), jon barry (waived in favour of Ely), finley (waived in favour of bogans)

    OK...now you know how thin the free agent market is in my super extra deep league...

    And...the likes of salmons/barbosa/diaw/calderon are taken
