[/ QUOTE ] yes [/ QUOTE ] Jefferson was the #18 overall player selected. I am willing to bet anyone that he will be less than the 18th best player under our scoring system this year according to basketball monster. You interested? |

As I've said before, value is relative on the Monster. Besides, the question you asked wasn't "is he a top 18 monster player", it was does anyone else think he will struggle in minnessota. Two different questions. |

Re: Post Draft Fantasy Basketball Thread
Obviously by "struggle" I didn't mean that he was going to turn into Kwame Brown. I just didn't think he was as good as 18th overall. What do you mean by "value is relative on Monster"?

[/ QUOTE ] Just because someone is ranked 18th on Monster doesnt mean absolutely that anyone would trade you whoever happens to be ranked 40th on monster for them for example. |

For one theres age. And for two, you have to construct your team in a certain manner(for example a lot of people might not be willing to offer fair trade value for Dwight Howard because his FT% causes you to change your team so much). However in general, the monster rankings are a completely fair rating system, no? If not, what exactly is wrong with them? |

But teams aren't constructed in general (well, a few super teams in the other league have been, but the vast majority don't have that luxury). It's a good *general* barometer though, I agree. |

Re: Post Draft Fantasy Basketball Thread
serg,
You got round 14 wrong. Theo Ratliff was worst by far. That was the biggest 'wtf' pick in my mind. |

[/ QUOTE ] I think I actually read somewhere that he is healthier than he's been in a long time, and may split time with Blount pretty evenly. Given position scarcity and Theo's shot-blocking ability, even a moderate chance that he is not completely washed up makes it a halfway decent pick IMO. |
