@Steve Stevenson: Ray, Ibaka and Gallo were in response to your question. I wasn't suggesting you Ray Allen 12th overall. That's crazy.

@Steve Stevenson: I'd go Kobe, Pau, LeBron, Wade, Rose, Bosh, Boozer, Deng, Manu, Parker, and Noah in that order. Then, Ray, Ibaka, Gallinari. And finally, watch out for Memphis. @hakasan: Steve's advice is sound. I might add that if you lean toward blocks, go with Ibaka, as I'd be surprised if Brand plays a full game, if at all.

yeah i’m tied with different owners in all three categories… (in yahoo leagues, i am x.5 points in all three) the person i’m sharing blk has less games played than me… i think i’m gonna wait and see how tonight (i have odom available, but sitting him against SA) and attack whatever cat i can…

@hakasan: It depends on how easy it is to move in each of the 3 cats, but if it's roughly equal, I'd put a G in the Util slot with Dirk at F and Frye at C and go after both % cats. While Kidd's overall FG% is bad, his FT% is good and his 3PT% is so-so (but not much worse than Harden or Mo). I'd sit Rondo and Calderon because I doubt either plays (and get limited mins if they do). So that lineup would be Kidd-Mo-Harden-Dirk-Frye. If you want to hedge a little and go after blocks, at least Ibaka at C and/or Brand at F give you an OK FT% for a big man. Horford does too, but given the Hawks' minutes in their last game, I'd be wary of rolling with him.

Trying to wrap up my season tomorrow with 1PG 1G 1F 1C and 1UTL games left. the only categories with room to improve are :ft%, 3pt% (thanks to Frye last night), and BLKs.

who should I end the season with?

kidd/mowill/rondo/harden/calderon
matrix/dirk/brand/horford/odom
ibaka/frye/

i’m thinking sit kid/rondo because of their low %s, i would play calderon, but he’s probably done for the season, which leaves me mowill/harden?

the bigger issue is f/c/util spot… i would play horford/brand/ibaka to max blks, but dirk might be the difference maker in 3pt% and ft%?

what do you think?
