My Hoops Team

[Tesco Vee]

had our draft last night. I picked 8 out of 12. besides Centers, what else am i missing?
in order
1. Tmac
2. jermaine
3. Pau Gasol- has a beard now. how can you go wrong?
4. Richard Jefferson
5. M. Okur - makes me nervous
6. Chris Paul
7. PJ Brown- sucks to have 2 hornets but he is a Center and we play 2
8. Jalen Rose
9. Josh Smith
10. Chris Kaman- more slow white guys
11. TJ Ford - absolute steal of the draft
12. Luol Deng
13. James Jones

any feedback would be appreciated.

How many do you start at each spot?

[Tesco Vee]

oh yeah that could help
PG, SG, G, SF, PF, F, C,C, U, U, 3 bench (kaman, James jones, Deng currently)

categories are
fgm,fg%,FT%,3ptm,pts,reb,asst,steal,block,TO

PG is decent but not spectacular. I like Chris Paul more than anyone this season and think he's this year's Dwayne Wade. I can see him putting up 17 points, 3 rebounds, and 6 assists or so. TJ Ford is okay but he really doesn't do that much... He won't hurt you but he won't help out a ton since he's not a shooter.

SG is decent. Nothing too great.

SF is a very talented spot for you. TMac and RJeff can both play that spot if I remember correctly.

PF is very good with Jermaine O'Neal. His assists may go up a bit this season with more scorers healthy (and not suspended). Artest is a team player and makes the players around him better.

C if okay. Gasol will be good enough (the stache will guide the way) and Okur is solid although he may split time. Kaman is okay but I'm not sure what his role will be with Phil in town. Maybe Luc Longley numbers?

It's a solid team with some holes. If Chris Paul does well and you get decent numbers out of Okur and Kaman, you could make a run for the title.

so here are my starters for now
PG Paul - points, assts, will hurt T/o's
SG Tmac - great flex all categories
SF Richjeff all categories just not as good as tmac
PF - Jermaine rebs, pts, blocks, assists
F- Gasol pts, rebs, blocks will hurt FT%
C Okur rebs, pts will hurt FT%
C PJ Brown rebs, pts
Util Josh Smith pts, rebs, blocks will hurt FT%
Util TJ FOrd assts, pts keep T/os low, help FT%

Bench
Kaman (Clippers starter) rebs, pts
Deng- sometimes points. inconsistent
Jones- Starting SF for phx. so gave it a shot for points.

Is Gasol able to play center this year? I haven't checked his eligibility yet...
