I didn't see a thread on this...

I was just offered Kevin Love and Harden for Lebron. My initial thoughts are no, but it's more intriguing now that I thought about it.

It's a 12 team league and my team is

PG Brandon Jennings
SG Wesley Matthews
G Rajon Rondo
SF Lebron James
PF Joakim Noah
F Danilo Gallinari
C Marcin Gortat
C Nikola Pekovic
Ut Omer Asik
Ut Greivis Vasquez
BN Ricky Rubio
BN JJ Redick
BN Byron Mullens

I would do it. Klove is the only star on his team. 15 Rebs shoots 3's pretty much unstoppable. His flaw is defense but his 15 Rebs do account for it. In my league someone picked love over Lebron.

I am leaning towards accepting it. Thanks for the advice.

I'd actually do it probably. Depth is nice in a 12-teamer. You basically move down 1-3 spots in the 1st round and add Harden (FG/FT%, FTA, FTM, PPG, RPG, APG, and a 3 or two).

Oh ya! But remember James harden is a great player playing the 6th man. He squares up against scrubs. Klove/harden >> Lebron in fantasy. In real life obviously Lebron >>> those guys. Klove 15 reb 23 ppg. Best PF in the league. he's only getting better from here

Do it. I had Love last year and he put up similar if not better fantasy numbers than LeBron. Harden is just icing on the cake. I had him last year too.

Is giving up D-Will, Bosh, and Gortat too much for LeBron?

Any advice on where to improve?

SG/SF usually have minimal value unless you value total points or they shoot well.

I'd rather load up on PF/C with high rebound averages and PGs who get assists.

But I did pick up DeAndre Jordan and traded him for Lowry and dropped Ben Gordon to pick up Teague off waivers. Thinking about dropping Derozan and picking up a big man. Possibly Asik.

Wow Asik is available? And I would do that trade for Lebron.

I'm in a 16 team league - my team is decently stacked.
I still think there is more to do to win it all.

I have a couple of questions and concerns.

TEAM

Deron Williams
Marcus Thornton
Gerald Henderson
David Lee
Al Horford
Goran Dragic
Carl Landry
Elton Brand
Nene
Chandler Parsons
Samuel Dalembert
Marvin Williams
Al-Farouq Aminu

DROPS AND ACQUISITIONS FROM FREE ANGENCY
Drops: Ricky Rubio*, Delonte West and Thiago Splitter
Adds: Ben Gordon, Marvin Williams and Al-Farouq Aminu


TRADES

Received Nene and Chandler Parson for David West and Ben Gordon
Received Al Horford and Gerald Henderson for Nicolas Batum and Jared Dudley


What do you guys think of my trades?
Nene is currently injured and I knew that going in - however I think it will pay off. Parson is getting me some decent points.



Should I pick up John Wall from the FA? He's injured and will be out for at least early December. I want to pick him up but not sure if it is too early.
Also someone dropped Dirk Nowitzki because of injury too... I don't see a time table for Dirk though.

Dude if you can get Lowry for Jordan then you play in a league with children and you don't have anything to worry about.

I dropped Asik Sat. He is horrific from a fantasy perspective. Very nice in real life but it doesn't translate to fantasy. There are literally 10 or so better C-eligibles on the Yahoo waiver wires.
