Biggest disappointments so far

I realize some of you may be trying to move players that have let you down and do not want to tip your hand but man-o-man some of these players have really disappointed me so far.

I traded the Cat to Max for Rafer Alston. Probably the worst move thus far this season (I am notorious for making bad trades). Jeff Van Gundy runs the ugliest offense in the West. I was counting on Alston for 6 dimes and some made 3s. Assists and 3s are two categories I wanted to dominate in. Alston has been lousy.


Ricky Davis is another player who is not having that great start. And Larry Hughes. Larry Hughes is almost as bad as Alston.

Delonte West...MONSTER 1st two games. mediocre 3rd and bafflingly weak after that. Dan Dickau is making more asssts. West's saving grace: blocks. He gets one a game. He fits my teamsshot blocking persona.

Jamaal Tinsley: Here today, gone tomorrow. He's the marcus camby of my team. I stopped following Camby but I bet he's healthier so far.

Considering my crappy draft skills though, I think both are an improvement over Telfair. I think Himat found that out.

My two breakout players have yet to show signs of breaking out: Dwight Howard and Emeka Okafor...solid production so far but merely pedestrian overall.

Most of my players that were letting me down I cut them. I cut Antonio Daniels, Eric Dampier, V. Radmonvic and Danny Fortson. The most disappointing player was Antonio Daniels. I drafted him late but I thought he would be putting up better numbers especially since he is getting more playing time. I waited 4 games before moving him out because I don't like to make hasty roster changes but I had no choice his FG% and FT% was killing me. He avg. like 4 assists a game but he was not puting up a lot of points. My rule is if a guy is hurting you in more than 3 stat categories then he has to go!!! So I picked up Maurice Williams who is coming off the bench for the Bucks and has been lighting it up.

How long should you wait before cutting bait? I have Kwame. He sucks.

I basically traded him since I have Iverson and do not need an extra point.

I am getting killed in that league. Not sure whats going wrong. My guys did not seem to have a lot of games this week. What can you do if your opponenets guys play more games? Kind of a jip.

That's part of why I lost week one. Some weeks it will benefit you, others it will not. An X-factor so to speak.

Do you have a lot of players that are on the same team on your roster? If so this is very bad!!! This may cause you problems because if you have 3 guy's on the same team and they only play 1 game that week then you end up not having enough players playing.

Oh where do I start...

Dunleavy, Josh Howard, J. Terry's assists, Andre Miller's scoring, and Desmond Mason in general.

Basically, have my team is underachieving. They will eventually heat up though...I just hope that it is sooner rather than later.
