    A complication has arisen in the land of forwards for me. Since I have a sports.ws team, it's only allowed to start two forwards, and I have a ton. The one I'm contemplating upon benching is Carmelo Anthony. Now, my question is, of the following, who would you choose to start at forward:

    Carmelo Anthony
    Rip Hamilton
    Lamar Odom
    Grant Hill

    I'm really having problems figuring it out. Melo has really been having consistency problems this year. Odom on the other hand, hasn't produced in the points category like many thought he would, but his rebounds have been solid. Grant Hill has been solid all year, but you never know what could happen to him. Hamilton has been solid, but he only really gets me points. So, I'm wondering, of those four, who would you put at that forward spot, cause, even though he hasn't played, TMac has my other one secured for the most part. Lets get some other opinions on this. Oh, and if you're wondering how I managed all of them....it's only an 8 team league...and I actually got Grant Hill out of the free agent pool today.

    I'd go with Hill and Melo. As much as I love Odom, he is not a fantasy giant now that he is in Kobes shadow. Unless you need rebounds, dont start him.

    I'm actually going to go with TMac and someone else. That's my complication right now. I can't figure out who I want there to complicate TMac....and yea, I realize....TMac ain't playing great right now, but you never know when he'll get going.

    Start Grant Hill and Rip Hamilton. They both gather the most points out of that group of guys. If you needs rebounds play Lamar Odom. I would trade some of the forwards for a swingman like trench said.

    well tmac should be teamed up with..grant hill. who else, but him, they can finally live out the magic dream..

    grant hill is playing great right now, but lamar odom might be just as good. forget hamilton and melo (injured right?). so it's either hill or odom. i would go with hill just on the basis i like hill a lot..
