Ok so I just completed my fantasy basketball draft (let us never again speak of fantasy football, finishing first in the regular season when you play a one game eliminator tourney. BRING ON THE BCS) and am now posting online the analysis I conducted for it.
The first part consists of the top five 65 players in terms of scoring and if you are a rotiserie buff I have list all the relevant categories on my own given that no source has a complete list (a couple of players are out of order, especially Chris Paul, and the +/- indicate either an increase or decrease expceted for this year or last year). The next section is my sleepers/ guys not to forget section and the last section is my personal fantasy rankings.
Good luck.
