Heys.. Some questions before I can answer this one.. What fantasysports league are you playing in? What are the catagories that the league are setup for? Tips.. Grab your starters, and average out the best you can your average point, rebs, blks etc. Compare to other teams, it'll help to see your team a little better comparative =)
YR team sucks, did u get first pick? Because KG is a first pick, btw wat league are u playiing anyway, wat catagories counts?

PG Baron Davis SG Eddie Jones G Mike Bibby SF Richard Jefferson PF Andrei Kirilenko F Karl Malone C Dikembe Mutumbo C Theo Ratliff Util Damon Stoudemire Util Chris Bosh Bench Nene (hahaha) Bench Nick Van Exel Bench Dion Glover Any good?
Hahaha. It was an auto-draft and that's what I got. I was asking for help on how to improve it since I didn't know how to play before. But I learned (on my own since I didn't get any help) and I'm doing pretty well. Here's my team now. It's a Yahoo league with my friends: PG Marbury, Stephon (PG-Pho) SG Artest, Ron (GF, SF-Ind) G McKie, Aaron (GF-Phi) SF Kirilenko, Andrei (SF, PF-Uta) PF Randolph, Zach (PF-Por) F Murphy, Troy (PF-GS) C Curry, Eddy (FC, C-Chi) C Collins, Jason (C-NJ) Util Davis, Ricky (GF-Bos) Util Armstrong, Darrell (PG-NO) Bench Carter, Vince (GF, SG-Tor) Bench Mason, Desmond (GF-Mil) Bench Ratliff, Theo (FC-Atl) Bench Hoiberg, Fred (SG-Min) Bench Garnett, Kevin (SF, F-Min) IL Arenas, GilbertIL (PG-Was) So who's got the better team now? hehehe.

Anyway, you got AK47 and Garnett? I am impressed
Hahaha. Come one. That's the key to the league's competitiveness. We're trying to outdo one another. So we can have bragging rights at the end of the season. But my bad, this is my team on my other league. But I also made some great trades on my team. At first I didn't have Zach, AK, Vince and Artest. This is the team above after I made some moves: PG Arroyo, Carlos (PG-Uta) PG Murray, Ronald (G, SG-Sea) SG Hoiberg, Fred (SG-Min) G Hinrich, Kirk (G, PG-Chi) SF Garnett, Kevin (SF, F-Min) SF Salmons, John (SG, GF-Phi) PF Randolph, Zach (PF-Por) PF Thomas, Etan (FC-Was) F Abdur-Rahim, Shareef (PF-Atl) C Voskuhl, Jake (C-Pho) C Haslem, Udonis (FC, PF-Mia) Util Anderson, Shandon (SF, SG, GF-NY) Util Kaman, Chris (C-LAC) Bench Cassell, Sam (PG-Min) Bench Ilgauskas, Zydrunas (C-Cle) We're 16 in the league for this team. I know it's not that great compared to my team above but it took me a long time to find out how it works and when I did, all the ok players are picked up in the avbl players. But I made some good trades and I climbed to number 4 from number 13.
hehe talkin to Yahoo Fantasy, here's my team then... after I made some changes and some trades I went to 3 straight wins, and now im in 3rd plays outta 14 teams, very near to 1st place, and these week im playin agains him (current result 5:4 for me heheh) here's my team which is goin strong last weeks: PG Terry, Jason (G, PG-Atl) SG Maggette, Corey (GF-LAC) SF Robinson, Glenn (SF-Phi) PF Bosh, Chris (PF, FC-Tor) C Ilgauskas, Zydrunas (C-Cle) Util Randolph, Zach (PF-Por) Util Stojakovic, Peja (SF-Sac) Util Allen, Ray (SG-Sea) Util Prince, Tayshaun (SF-Det) Bench Snow, Eric (PG-Phi) Bench Brand, Elton (PF-LAC) Bench Payton, Gary (PG-LAL) IL Stoudemire, AmareIL (PF-Pho)

Is this league with your friends?
my team this is my team, and im in a yahoo league too with 10 people and we did a live draft and this is what i ended up getting PG Marbury, Stephon (PG-Pho) PG Davis, Baron (PG-NO) SG McGrady, Tracy (SG-Orl) G Carter, Vince (GF, SG-Tor) SF Sprewell, Latrell (GF, SG-Min) SF Marion, Shawn (SF-Pho) PF Abdur-Rahim, Shareef (PF-Atl) PF Randolph, Zach (PF-Por) F Finley, Michael (GF-Dal) C Wallace, Ben (FC, PF-Det) C Duncan, Tim (FC-SA) Util Terry, Jason (G, PG-Atl) Util Kukoc, Toni (F-Mil) Bench Hughes, Larry (PG, SG-Was) Bench Allen, Ray (SG-Sea)
When I drafted my team it really sucked, it was my first time doing this thing, the auto draft ended up like this (out of 12 teams) I got the 11th pick: PG Mike Bibby (4th) G Jamal Crawford (5th) SG Vince Carter (2nd pick) SF Rashard Lewis (1st if it wasn't an autodraft i would haven't picked him) PF Kwame Brown (7th) F Tyson Chandler (9th) C Eddy Curry (6th) C Yao Ming (3rd) Util Larry Hughes (10th) Util Zach Randoplh (got him w/ my last pick, lucky) Bench Al Harrington (11th) Bench Alonzo Mourning (12th) Bench Keon Clark (8th) i did some crappy drafting, but after some trading and signing: PG Jamal Crawford G Steve Nash (I SHOULD HAVE NOT TRADED RANDOLPH 4 NASH, DANG!) SG Larry Hughes SF Rashard Lewis PF Elton Brand F Jerry Stackhouse C Dirk Nowitzki C Yao Ming Util Derek Anderson Util Kirk Hinrich Bench Speedy Claxton Bench Mike Dunleavy Bench Tyson Chandler Any ideas how to improve?

Is this league with your friends?</div> Yea it's a league with my friends. Im tryin to get rid of Robinson but seems I aint takin any good player for him. Here's one option: I give: Bosh, Prince, Robinson I get: Skinner, Odom - and than from FA I can take like Jiri Welsch ! I'll see if I can make that trade...
What would be a fair trade to get kevin garnett or peja stoka-what? i want to put in ronald murray, should i try 2 package in dirk or rashard? i proposed this trade: Dirk Nowitzki, Ronald Murray, Larry Hughes for Kevin Garnett <-- Should i change it or is it fair for both

Do u guys know any fair trades to get peja or arenas or even garnett?</div> you traded Zach for Nash? That sucks man...hehehe...Well first, there's no way you'll prey of Garnett from anyone who's in their right frame of mind...with Peja, hhhmmm...maybe you can offer Dirk...it's worth a shot...but Peja is better than him...but he may accept so who knows?
i think nowitzki will be better than stoka-what when webber comes back, but for now peja is lighting it up everywhere. i want bryant (got to show him support for the crap he's taking everywhere by some fans). i offered lewis, but i don't think the guy has checked on his team 4 a LONG time. i thought randolph was going through a phase like murray, the past few games he was shooting in the 30s, but he proved me wrong w/ his recent performance 28 pts. more than 10 boards and 5 assists. nash on the hand last game was like 7 pts and 12 assists...i think i made the wrong choice...
I would choose Stoja over Dirk...Dallas has more superstars and points are more scattered among those stars...Stoja will continue to light it up... And about your edit above...I recently got AI...I traded away AK47...I know I'll be giving up stats block-wise...and some rebounds of course...but I'm loaded with PF and SFs...I needed someone who'll score in bunches...Plus, AI's owner is more than happy to give him up coz he needs the blocks and AI's percentage is pulling him down...I'm not worrying that much with AI's percentage because i'm leading in the FG % department...here's my team now btw, I made some trades again... PG James, Mike (G, PG-Bos) SG Iverson, Allen (SG-Phi) G Boykins, Earl (PG-Den) SF Hayes, Jarvis (GF, SF-Was) PF Thomas, Kenny (F, PF-Phi) F Randolph, Zach (PF-Por) C Miller, Brad (C, FC-Sac) C Ratliff, Theo (FC-Atl) Util McKie, Aaron (GF-Phi) Util Arenas, Gilbert (PG-Was) Bench McInnis, Jeff (PG, SG-Por) Bench Garnett, Kevin (SF, F-Min) Bench Hoiberg, Fred (SG-Min) Bench Murphy, Troy (PF-GS) Bench Martin, Kenyon (PF-NJ) IL Stoudemire, Amare It was a busy week for me. Lots of trades. I'm planning to give up another PF for another SG especially when Amare comes back.
I'm surpirsed u gave up kirlenko 4 iverson, but i guess in A.I. will give u a lot of points. But is earl boykins that good to keep on your team? but then again your bench is like 5 ppl, so i guess you guys are allowed 2 have a lot of players. Trading is fun, but nobody in my league is willing 2 really trade..there were only 3 trades and only 2 other ppl were involved
I know...but I needed a stud scorer...i am loaded at sf and pf as you can see...and i have a stud blocker in ratliff...i am low on FT percentages that's why i got boykins...
