ANALYSIS
- Make sure DeAndre Jordan, Caron Butler, and obviously Chauncey Billups active.
- Mo Williams is a safe play.
- David Lee's value takes a hit, but he should still provide decent production if he plays like he has in his last two games.
- Consider benching Dorell Wright given the low number of games, his lack of production, and the knee bruise that caused him to miss Thursday's game.
- I know I advised picking up Andris Biedrins, but this is probably not the week to plug him in unless you are really hurting at that second center spot.
- You should still start Danny Granger and Russell Westbrook.
- You should probably still use James Harden and Al Jefferson, unless you're in a shallow league.
- If you're league has two centers, you'll probably need to use Marcin Gortat, Roy Hibbert, and Serge Ibaka; if it has one, you can bench them.
- Channing Frye is a borderline play at best, but keep in mind that he is trending upward...kind of.
- Paul Millsap, Paul George, Darren Collison, and Jared Dudley aren't great plays this week.
- If you're stacked at guard, Steve Nash might be the odd man out this week.
- Bench Grant Hill, Markieff Morris, David West, Devin Harris, and George Hill.
