Hey man, no problem and thanks for the input! I liked seeing someone comment don't feel discouraged not to!

Some good keepers. The back three are an incredible value and just in time. The trades gave you great value with a few early mid-round picks. It gives you a heads up this year. You have a strong set of guards and wing players oh my. And your bigs are nice as well. I like this team all-around. You have a lot of scorers and look good on the defensive end. There's not a real weakness on the team and those trades are going to go a long way this year. It's hard to tell what type of value each pick was with so many keepers, I'll just assume they weren't the reaches that they look like (Rich 47, Bledsoe 39, CJMAc 32, Murray 69), but Bam went behind them all so it is a possibility. But it's hard not to have an all-around strong team when you have 7 picks in the first 4 rounds and Doncic as a 6th (among the others) and didn't give up any picks. It was a great strategy with an eye towards the future and this year looks to be exciting. John Wall is a sneaky good pick that late as a potential keeper pick. Hopefully, you don't need the IR spot for anyone for a long duration.

This is a pretty strong team overall. It looked to be in order at first then I saw some people later that changed it and i won't go by draft order. You have some good bigs that can grab boards and you'll be good in that. You have a couple good blocks guys as well to help out, Ayton making a leap there would be huge. Your guards are really good and you should be elite in points with treys being up there as well and a good amount of assists. Your team can grab steals as well as shoot from the line good. You had yourself a good draft with a lot of well-roundedness.

I think I'm weak in pts and 3s weirdly enough having started with lillaird and trae. There are a couple of interesting players undrafted (baze, garland, poetl, pj washington, cedi and saric)

That's what's not ideal about the turn pick. You have to take everyone a bit earlier than they tend to go. You got a few good snags late though with JV and Harrell falling a bit. Your assists are going to be elite and your guards get a good chunk of rebounds which will help out there. You can get steals and your %s are good, but blocks are just okay for a 10 man. Points look solid as well and so do TOs. There's more than enough here to make a playoff push as a pretty good team.

This is why I love this thread at hoop-ball. Direct and informative analysis. I couldn’t agree more with you on the trading Teague and someone in maybe what may be an opening for a 2 for 1 deal in the near future. Very quickly, What kind of stats do you think would benefit me the most to target in a trade. Just so I can narrow it down a bit. Im guessing you are going to say another big with good percentages. I was thinking maybe Aldridge would fit nicely?

I like the Gasol suggestion. I’ve been starring at him on the wire for the entire day and I just haven’t had the guts to pull the trigger on him. What do you think about dropping VanVleet for him since my guards are by the bunches. I am also strongly considering just going ahead and taking NWA and dropping teague for the time being after the news about Zion. I think there will be more touches coming everyones way on that team. But that means I would not have teague to use in a trade. Hahaha oh boy. Decisions, decisions Santino. The life of fantasy hoops. Gotta love it. Thanks for the input.

Bam was a good pick that late. Surprised he fell all the way down there for a later draft. SGA has been going earlier as well. The middle early-round picks are reliable "boring" guys who you know what you're getting with. Dan would be proud. Bam helps in blocks but the other guys aren't known for it. Time Lord helps since you don't have another C to fill in as the third on the roster, but if it's hard to hold a guy like that if he's not playing much. In theory, a specialist sounds good, but is it really? I think you'll be a good scoring team with free-throw shooting. Steals are solid and there's some potential for assists bit they are alright. Threes and boards aren't bad either. There's a lot more solid than very good at and I don't feel too great about it, but you have a lot better of a chance in a roto league than I would give you for a H2H team by going this way. You won't be too low in any cats.

I like this build. Extremely strong in rebounds, assists, and defense. It looks like you got a lot of value. Conley in the fifth is easy. Bledsoe in the 7th and Carter in the 9th. Very good. There's one pick missing and I wonder where he is, but you have a strong team where you'll just need to win one of the %s or treys to take each week and I think you have a good chance to do so each week.

Thanks Santino! Sorry I forgot to mention we did an auction draft so and here were the values (200 dollars total):

Kyrie Irving ($50)
Lou Williams ($9)
Kelly Oubre Jr ($5)
Kristaps Porzingis ($16)
