If Ray starts to shut it down is he going to benefit? I have seen far too many injuries this season and now thinking about cutting and running on a couple guys. Baron Davis - Doesn't have a 4 game week left (all 3 games), and who knows if he has shut it down yet David Lee - How well can a guy that plays with all energy play when he hasn't played in two weeks and can't explode off his ankle I can remember looking at the waiver wire and seeing at least 10 guys that I could float into the bottom 3 of my lineup and be ok. Now I see maybe 3 that are suitable. Ridnour would be one, Murphy and maybe Carroll. My fear is that other guys arte going to blink before me and drop there injured guys for the scraps on the wire. Are Lee or Davis droppable for any of the above? I tend to agree what is up with Ridnour? If Ray starts to shut it down is he going to benefit?

I don't understand what's going on in Seattle, but is it just time to dump him? I'm in a really competitive league so there's only guys like Steve Francis or Juan Dixon available. Opinions?

That way you can see if your team is improving or declining and in what categories (and by how much). I too think that it is good to diversify your team and not have too many fantasy players from one real team. It's a tough call, and I agree about Diaw, but I'm not a huge fan of Maggette either because he hasn't been great in FT%, which is usually where most of his value comes from. Check it out and see if it looks good for you. Here’s what I’d recommend…go to Basketball Monster (http://basketballmonster.com/) and input your team and then the players that you will be getting.

so my record against other teams are:
FGM (8-9-0); FG% (6-10-1); FTM (7-10-0); FT% (14-3-0); 3PTM (16-1-0); PTS (9-8-0); OREB (3-14-0); DREB (4-12-1); AST (11-6-0); ST (8-8-1); BLK (6-11-0); TO (13-4-0); A/T (13-4-0)

one of the main goals is to get rid of the pistons that i own. in addition to sheed and billups, i also have webber and tayshaun. for my other centers, i also have camby and aldridge. so i really want to win assists, steals, fg%, and help out my rebounds.

i dunno, do you guys think that i’ll benefit from this trade or am i giving up too much? diaw is completely injured at this point and even when he’s back, he’s really inconsistent…

However, at this point in the season issues like numbers of games left to be played also will make an impact. Do you play Roto or H2H? It's important because if a player only plays 2 games in a fantasy playoff week, then they are worth less. Anyways, I really like Deron, West and Johnson and have all of them on my team, but I don't know if I would do it or not. You'll lose some C-Eligible players out of the deal though too. What are you looking for in attempting to make this large of a trade? Trying to increase specific categories?
