Favors vs Drummond vs Tristan T vs Noel

Postby raffrox01 » Wed Jan 23, 2013 4:33 am

Dynasty league, 17 teams. Standard 9 cat roto.

It dynasty so you keep all your players every year.

I am attempting the impossible task of creating a Dwight roto team.

PG ... Rajon Rondo (Bos - PG) / Isiah Thomas (Sac - PG)
SG ...Wes Matthews (Por - SG,SF) / Alan Anderson (Tor - SG,SF)
SF ... Harrison Barnes (GS - SF) / Marvin Williams (Uta - SF) / Dorell Wright (Phi - SG,SF) / Marcus Morris (Hou - SF)
PF ... Josh Smith (Atl - SF,PF) / Tristan Thompson (Cle - PF,C) / Kosta Koufas ( PF,C - Den)
C ... Dwight Howard (LAL - C) / DeAndre Jordan (LAC - C)

Tristan Thompsons play of late has been very strong and he's been easily averaging a double double since Varejao is out (14.4 ppg, 11.6 rpg, 50%+ fg%).

The question I have is where Tristan Thompson fits within the glamour upside bigs, mainly Favors and Drummond. I am thinking of making a play for a few guys so Thought I'd get the opions first.

And just to spice it up, bonus points if people have ideas of where Nerlens Noel would fit in the list.

So basically for a dynasty league, punt ft% team, looking at the medium to long term, how would you rank...?

Tristan Thompson
Andre Drummond
Derrick Favors
Nerlen Noel

Thanks :-)

1. Derrick Favors - Since its very lilely Al Jeff or Milsap will go, he will probably be starting if that happens. Good long term option
2. Andre Drummond - Could be starting next season, high potential
3. Tristan Thompson - Soild player but the top 2 have more potential
4. Nerlen Noel - idk who this is lol

Another vote for Drummond over Favors, but it's really close. So much depends on Favors' minutes. Too soon to tell with Noel.

Thanks for the answers. Much appreciated. Yeah and most probably too early for Noel.

Where would someone like Kenneth Faried fit in this list? Drummond, Favors and Thompson?

Thanks.

in a roto format I'd give a slight edge to Favors but since you're punting FT% Drummond is your man !
