    maybe.. it seems around fair in terms of talent (last year).
    but i think both of your teams probably fit a bit better before that trade.

    it's a contender, no doubt. talent is very good, spacing is great, penetration by guards, rebounding, rim protection.

    defense in the backcourt is a bit lacking now, Parker was ok defensively, Kyrie is horrible atm (lwqbulb would be a pretty bad matchup for you).
    You also seem to lack post ups a bit. Still, your offense is very good. Backcourt defense the main weakness.

    In my opinion you shouldnt have trade away garnett. He's way better than josh smith.

    I know. I originally planned to build around KG Rondo Chemistry. Then I got excited for trades and lost my composure. I've been going down hill since. Cocaine is a hell of a drug.

    KG is A big doucher. KG is better but not way better. Josh smith is faster quicker 1.5 block and 1.5 steals a game.

    Smith has less brains / leadership / winning attitude though

    LCAhmed basically screwed me twice in this draft. :grin:
    First he grabs KG, who i was targeting with my lwqbulb deal.
    Then he grabs Joe Johnson, which was my plan B after KG was taken (save cap, get Johnson late and have a huge, strong team with no real point guard)

    I like KG's intensity and all but I think it may be a little overvalued. Is aging and chunked shots in the semis. Brandon bass/rondo somewhat pierce were the clutch ones. Every time KG shot it I was iffy but bass.. I was 80% sure it was in. KG is a beast. Just overvalued on these drafts.

    nah, KG is good. Intimidating presence, a leader, great defender, a scorer and plays like a champ...

    I hate him especially if he's putting up points against the rockets, but he has the skills that's really hard to pass
