hah yeah. was looking at it more and i liked what shaq has done the past 14 days but then i looked at season totals and realized id be giving up much more potential with already comparable stats.

i was also looking at adding: dalembert for blocks but he is so god awful for everything else (except rebounds) im not sure if he is worth adding.

[/Quote] it comes down to what someone needs as a manager, the PTS are almost identical between shaq and cousins but cousins has more REBS,  but if you need FG% you sure dont want cousins who sports a % of 38 while Shaq has a FG% of almost 70% (69.3% to be exact)  plus cousins will turn the ball over 2x's more then shaq will.  it comes down to your needs but no way in hell is a bit exagerated in my opinion...    i took Shaq to bolster my FG% and to give me some much needed REBS and i parted with ridnour cause i dont need ASST as bad as i need REBS....

runlagos:  i meant what is your #1 need, not the guy in 1st place but what do you need the most?  REBS, PTS, FG%, etc etc.... 

 

looking at the above stats u are getting killed by your FT%, BLKS and TO's..    you need to address them area's.  i cant tell you who to get cause i dont know what guys are available in your league..look and see if u can get someone that has 90% or better at the stripe that doesnt turn the ball over alot...

runlagos:

Look for someone who has a high FG and FT%. Make sure he's a good 3 point shooter as well who doesn't turn the ball over a lot. Also...make sure he's a good distributor (gotta have those assists). He's got to have good presence in the paint too. Get the rebounds and is able to drive to get your 20 points a night (both by driving, mid range shooting, put backs, 3 point scoring etc.) He has to be very active too. Make sure this guy can block shots and forcing them to do too much and force a steal.

Keys to success brought to you by Sparky.

hey sparky, i doubt Magic and Wilt are on his waiver wire or FA list...  with all the catagories you told him look for you would need a guy like these 2.. 

find me a guy who scores and shoots 3's well + REBS + BLKS + dishes out ASST while shooting good from the FT line that has low TO's thats available???   maybe he can get Reggie Williams still

Rebounds are my main priority. However...JJ is on the market all the time and then I continue to get news that Brooks is out 2 weeks (no matter when I hear it...it's always another 2 fucking weeks). I'm looking for assists too which is why I added Conley. JJ is yours...but what else would it take to get Lopez and Conley?

Seeing that I'm in need of rebounds now...is it?

Arenas is doing what he's doing without Wall on the floor. When Wall comes back...Arenas' role goes down to...what exactly? A scorer? He loses assists for sure. Who knows.

Im looking at that trade you offered right now. Calderon is tough to part with now he is the full time PG and will easily dish out 8-10 a night. Its like i never traded Rondo now kinda.
