I’ve been in leagues with bidders going bananas. At that point, it becomes a war of attrition between the other guys’ big cannons surrounded by whatever his intelligence could muster in the later rounds and your even-steven squad. As long as you keep those guys from catching good deals in the end, LeBron James and Kevin Durant aren’t enough to beat an entire league.

The problem was that there was a lot of over bidding on top guys and I tried to be more circumspect in my bidding.

Jennings is about right. Actually, you got a lot of good bargains here (Cousins for $10, Hibbert for $8, Bargnani for $7). How deep is the league? My biggest concern is your lack of top 20 guys. You have a nice LMA, Gordon, Rondo, Evans quartet, but it feels like the team is missing its largest piece.

I feel like I overpaid for Jennings but got some value back in Gordon.

PG Brandon Jennings 15
SG Eric Gordon 31
SF Wesley Matthews 12
PF LaMarcus Aldridge 43
C Roy Hibbert 8
G Rajon Rondo 31
F DeMarcus Cousins 10
UTIL Tyreke Evans 29
UTIL Tim Duncan 7
UTIL Nicolas Batum 3
BE Andrea Bargnani 7
BE Shawn Marion 3
BE Gordon Hayward 1

I might drop Hill and Hamilton and take a flier on a couple strategic backups (similar to your Bayless pick). Maybe Shumpert. Maybe Arenas. Udrih, Beaubois, Sessions, etc.)
