I was thinking the same... but if you look at it for real u are just trading assists for rebounds... everything else almost evens out especially if mcgrady has a good season

Drop mcdyess and shelf bogut. Your team is pretty good. Good luck in your league.

you must have like 7 teams in your league to be able to get so many star players.

I agree, and another thing ... you don't have to necessarily win every category to win the league. You should be fine. Some categories you should have locked no matter who the opponent may be. I wouldn't be worried.

Good luck, and whatever you decide to do with your team ... be sure to keep it pimpin.

Pick a category to build on out of rebounds and assists. With Terry and Parker, you will be ok with assists. Concentrate on rebounding IMO. Try and get a bigtime rebounder.

I'm not positive what the break-up of players is in your league - but, on average, your team doesn't look complete enough to win it all. So, although it might be painful to do so, I'd consider trading Brand to get more collateral value back. With 14 teams, it becomes more difficult to pull off a 1 for 2 deal but I'd attempt a Brand for Dwight Howard and Boris Diaw type of deal. Thats obviously a reach but its the type of trade I'd suggest - since you have quality players at the top but thin quickly out at the bottom. I'm inclined to keep T-Mac despite potential back problems - he's a contributor in almost every category and that gives you leverage in tweaking the rest of your team.

Survey teams and figure out which categories are most competitive - where small differences may drop your rank significantly. Make sure you're solid in those. If those categories are assists and steals, Tony Parker should be dealt, especially since your fg% will quite possibly be tops in your league. I'd consider moving Parker for Dre Miller if possible to help assists and steals. Although points might also be an issue here.

Drafting both Gay and Marvin at (9 and 10?)might have been a mistake - there's considerable risk there. I think Gooden or Tinsley may have been available late, and they were potential low-pick solutions for rebounding and assists. I would package either Marvin Williams or Rudy Gay with Parker for a higher caliber point guard - ideally (but unlikely) Hinrich. That allows you to shift Barbosa permanently into the line-up, if he wasn't already.

Of course, pick up Bogut and drop McDyess. I think that's enough to clean up the rebounding issue long-term, especially since you're going with a 2-3 point guard line-up.

Don't rush that Bogut move dude, he's out 6-8 weeks. Could leave you in trouble the first couple weeks of the season.
