So I got saddled with Samuel Dalembert in 2 Yahoo leagues. I' was mad, but at least he'd get me blocks, right? Wrong. He's "in the doghouse" and he's been "injured" the past 4 games. How much longer should I wait on him? What other C can I pick up? Thanks in advance.
Depends on your team needs - blocks, fg %, reb. Assuming you are playing in a league where enough people know what they are doing, look for these guys playing center: Stro Swift Brezec / Okafor LaFrentz Loren Woods Jason Collins - especially if NJ trades 'Zo Kwame Brown - coming back from injury in December I would wait on Dalembert. He is an athletic shot blocker that can rebound. He reportedly has a hamstring injury that is getting tweaked often, but that is no reason to drop him. I would sacrifice now and reap rewards later, and if you need a C drop someone for the players listed above.
I was counting on Dalembert for blocks and Rebounds, mostly. I was wondering if he was really in the coach's doghouse or not. I read conflicting articles: one said he had a great preseason and the staff loved him, and the other said that he was in the doghouse since his help defense wasn't in the defensive scheme.
