It’s the moment all (some) of you (me?) have been waiting for, the top 200. This will polish off our 2012-2013 fantasy basketball rankings, which is good, because trying to value 6 rebounds per game versus 4 assists per game can make a man go crazy. Yes, of course, I was wearing the skin of unclaimed homeless teens well before I ever worked for this site, but without regular misting, the skin starts to get flaky. Meerg blurgh fakka wop. If I may be afforded one more moment of clarity before my descent into madness is complete, let me say that these rankings, as always, are not set in stone. During a draft, whether it is Head to Head or Roto, Snake Draft or Auction, Shirts or Skins, Muslim or Jew, you need to draft a player valuable to you. If Player A is a PG with tons of threes and assists and Player B is a PF with tons of blocks and rebounds and you’re already stockpiled with guards, why does it matter if Player A is ranked 115 and Player B is ranked 124? You gotta grab the guy that will deliver the most value to your team. Of course, if there’s a player you’re eyeballing that you think has fallen too far, then sure, you can always pick him up and stash him for the hell of it. Take a moment to look at not just the ranking but the projections. Those will provide you more assistance and context. At the end of the day (or draft), just remember that you need a team that can compete.
Update 10/20/2012: I further weighted my projections and moved some players around. The projections have not changed, but after further evaluation, I thought some movement on the rankings was in order. As always, I remind you to give more consideration to the numbers after the names rather than the numbers in front of the names.
