Is there a breakdown of your draft somewhere?  There's no way somebody in a ten team league should end up with KG, Dirk, Pierce, and Yao.  Was there some sort of major trade?  I mean, KG and Dirk are both top ten picks; Pierce and Yao both should go in the top 25.

Good job drafting, but looking at some of the other assembled teams, it doesn't look like people knew what they were doing.

Last year I had Pierce,Garnet and Rondo. Didnt help me much this year I'm staying away from celtics not only that I'm in a Auction style league and alot of the guys know im a celtic fan so they drive up the prices on me when the Celtics are called.

Yeah...  some teams didn't know what they were doing, looks like.  Howard isn't even that dominant a fantasy player.

Are you kidding me with that Howard payout????  If this is a roto league, that owner is going to get absolutely crushed.

Some free advice you all you out there... if you are in any roto Bball leagues, do not touch Howard with a 50' pole.

Now I see it is Roto... hahaha, tell [NU_JERZ]] [MR._CROMER] that I feel bad for him.  He's about to get absolutely waxed.

And he's got LeBron too... hello FT% purgatory!

I really like the OP's team...kinda low on the assists though.

If you could somehow trade Yao + Bibby or maybe, in this league, you can get away with JO+Bibby for Nash or CP3.

FWIW, i traded for DHoward last year in my keeper league --- not realizing his absolute crippling FT% (i knew, but i didn't KNOW) --- and finished 3rd. 

I"m gunning for 1st this year (my 3 other keepers are C. Paul (picked #11 in our inagural draft!!), Pierce and Ginobili (i'd keep Rondo almost over Ginobili, but for FT%).  It just means i have to over-prioritize FT% when drafting.  I'm not convinced you CAN'T win with Howard, you just have to work harder :)
