Where we breakdown the Grizzlies/Raptors/Pistons three-way and what it means for fantasy purposes, show (a little) love to Michael Beasley, debate whether Tim Duncan is a hold or sell with his recent injury, and throw about a bunch of potential waiver wire pickups.

    On the post integrated player it says file not found while in the sidebar it works :)

    Will listen to it while working, excited.

      Thanks for the heads up. That integrated player works about as well as Brandon Roy’s knees, I’ve removed it until we can get something that works a little more consistently.

  • Bonbon

    Can’t wait to listen to it at work. Like the Roy’s analogy (though with a heavy heart).

    Klay+Rose for Lee. Does this trade benefit me (as kLay and Rose owner)?

    I feel this is a big question mark that obviously depends on Rose’s performance.

    • Razvan

      If its a keeper league, then do it, no brainer. If not….let me get my crystal ball

    • http://givemetherock.com/ Patrick

      Yes, it’s going to depend on Rose’s performance once he gets back, but Thompson has actually been playing extremely well lately, and the difference between him and lee is smaller than you might think (at least in terms of overall value). You do lose a bunch of rebounds in the deal, but the upside is too good to pass up in my opinion.

  • Bonbon

    Favors is on the WW. Who should I drop for him?
    - Eric Gordon
    - Nate Robinson
    - Taj Gibson
    - Amir Johnson

    Thanks in advance.

      Taj and Nate have the least reliable long-term value on that list. Drop who you need less.

  • Red

    Would you drop Singler for Stephenson, Delfino, Henderson, or Stuckey? Will Stephenson continue to produce even after Granger returns? Thanks!

    • http://givemetherock.com/ Erik

      Stephenson and West will take the biggest hit when Granger returns. I would drop Singler if you like Delfino and Henderson. Stuckey, it’s a game of wait-and-see for now.
