However, I drafted Kaman in the beginning of the 7th round and between him and Jameer Nelson (6th round) I messed up my draft where I could have had Baron Davis and Emeka. Also, I was afraid one of the better, aware owners (who has Pietrus) would make a move...so I had to do it. Anyways, I made the move and am now attempting to move LeBron straight up for Elton Brand because the owner is somewhat ignorant and might get caught up in the name hype. I'm really hoping that it goes through. Otherwise, I might try to trade for Amare of some other top PF/C to raise my percentages and boards in the wake of losing Kaman. Bosh might be another guy to consider, but I don't think I'd trade LeBron from for him straight up since he hasn't improved much from last year.

Since you are racing against the clock, at some point, you're going to have to cut your losses and get Jason Richardson before someone else does. He's been ranked #34 during his past 3 games, which is right around where J-Rich's value is, a (2nd/3rd) round value. I was lucky to trade LeBron/Delonte for Steve Nash and picked up J-Will for more 3PTM/AST, solving my only weaknesses on FG/FT/3PTM/AST. Yah dood, if you can trade Kaman and/or LeBron away go for it.

I threw out a trade essentially of Kaman and LeBron for Brand and filler, hoping for a 2 for 1. LeBron has been horrible this year and I think getting a solid big man and quality SG then that would be great. Kaman would get snapped up in my league in a second because big men go at a premium. After another day or game and I might be pressed to do that however. ...yeah, probably going to happen. Yeah, I’m contemplating that for sure.

Regardless of Bibby's tumultuous season, he's still playing for a payday and he has every incentive to increase his trading value since the Kings are moving in a different direction and both parties want a change of scenery. You have J-Smoove, Big Al, and Camby covering your blocks and Yao later. You can afford to drop an inconsistent bigman that drops 3 TOs/game. Kaman's ranked like 157th on BBM.

This needs to change! Who can/should I drop for him. 10-team, 12-cat league. The rest of my team is: PG: Bibby, Andre Miller, Deron Williams, Mo Williams SG: Joe Johnson, Kevin Martin SF: LeBron James, Paul Pierce, Josh Smith, Josh Howard, PF: David West, Al Jefferson C: Yao Ming, Marcus Camby, Chris Kaman Rudy Gay is also available in my league, but please help me out. With Baron out I think Richardson should have a strong last quarter. Who would be worth dropping? Bibby? Thanks for any advice. JASON RICHARDSON IS STILL AVAILABLE IN MY LEAGUE. This needs to change!
