RotoExperts top

 RotoCommunity has been acquired by RotoExperts

As of 11/1/10, visit RotoExperts.com for all your fantasy sports needs

RotoExperts basically offers the same things we do, and I'll be doing much of the same things I do over there that I did here. The kicker is that I now have a staff of 37 to work with instead of a staff of seven. I have two masters of business operations out there making deals, and I'll be working in tandem with Scott Engel and a couple of other managers to help everything run smoothly.

I'll contribute my "Gawron's Grids" rankings, projections, cheat sheets, and schedule analysis to RotoExperts, and they're chock full of great audio and video broadcasting content, which will expand even more. They also cover other sports like NHL, NASCAR, MMA, golf, and more. I will spend the next several months tidying up the form (aesthetics) and function (organization, layout, navigation) of the RotoExperts website. And finally, I'll get to implement a statistical player database, starting with the 2011 baseball draft kit, which I've wanted to do at RotoCommunity but never had the chance, as I was the CEO, COO, Editor in Chief, and webmaster, and web developer all in one. I'll still do a lot of that at RotoExperts, but I'll have LOTS of help.

I'm excited, and you should be too! So head on over to the new RotoExperts, and enjoy the ride with us!

Sincerely,

Dave Gawron

SURVIVOR POOL PICKS - WEEK SIX


We base our weekly rankings on the strength of opposing defenses overall, individual match-ups, and expected game situations (shoot-out vs. field-goal battle vs. blowout). They're based on the WCOFF/NFFC PPR scoring systems. Hopefully, for the most part, just looking at the rankings helps you figure out who to sit or start. We set the projections early in the week and then comb through them and make any necessary edits on Friday.

We've ranked the top 150 players. Here are our notes on players outside the Top 150 that could help in deep leagues. Do download our cheat sheet files for Top 150 coverage.

Bigs (FGP, RB, BLK)

  • Milicic, Darko C MIN - Sneaky blocks and rebounds late.
  • McRoberts, Josh PF IND - Starting for now, anyway.
  • Williams, Shelden PF DEN - Could excel while Harrington, Andersen, and K-Mart are out.
  • Gooden, Drew PF MIL - Starting, but could lose major minutes to Ilyasova.
  • Favors, Derrick PF NJ - Must stay out of foul trouble and hope Murphy's back doesn't hold up.
  • Okur, Mehmet C/PF UTA - Now behind Jefferson and Millsap, must return to health soon as a scorer off the bench.
  • O'Neal, Jermaine C BOS - Just a shot blocking specialist now.
  • Chandler, Tyson C DAL - Potential cheap blocks and rebounds behind Haywood when healthy.
  • Thompson, Jason C/PF SAC - Crowded front court, but could do okay in deep leagues if given 25 minutes.
  • Hansbrough, Tyler PF IND - Could possibly provide 5 rebounds per game on decent 48-80 percentages.
  • Monroe, Greg PF DET - Could carve out niche but is raw at this point.
  • Mozgov, Timofey C NY - Should get 20 minutes per game, which could help in deep two-center leagues.
  • Thabeet, Hasheem C MEM - If nothing else, rookie should provide six rebounds and a blocks backing up Marc Gasol.
  • Dampier, Erick C DAL - Won't get many minutes, but should still provide six rebounds and a block with a great 64% FGP (though on only 160 FGM) wherever he signs.
  • Krstic, Nenad C/PF OKC - Will share time with Ibaka but give you 9-5-1 PTS-REB-BLK and decent 46-78 percentages.
  • Moute, Luc Richard Mbah a SF MIL - Defensive specialist could give you about 6-1-1 REB-STL-BLK late.
Shooters (FTP, 3PM, STL, PTS)
  • Turner, Evan SG PHI - We don't really know what to expect from the rookie... endgame lottery ticket.
  • Matthews, Wesley SF/SG POR - Behind Batum and Roy, but should do well while Batum's hurt.
  • Afflalo, Aaron SG DEN - Had a great preseason and is worth a final round lottery ticket but could easily fade when the games count.
  • Johnson, Wesley SF MIN - See Turner, Evan (another lottery ticket).
  • Childress, Josh SF/SG PHO - Hurt now, but should do well enough when healthy.
  • Williams, Reggie F/G GS - Not sure of rotation, but will do well if given minutes.
  • Wright, Dorell SF GS - See Williams, Reggie.
  • Thornton, Al SF WAS - May have to share with Josh Howard, but JoHo can't stay healthy.
  • Jianlian, Yi SF WAS - Or maybe China Boy can put it together this season.
  • Delfino, Carlos SF/SG MIL - Could start strong filling in for Maggette.
  • Daye, Austin SF/SG DET - Crowded rotation, but could emergeas season wears on.
  • Brewer, Corey SF/SG MIN - More of a Bruce Bowen type, but could surprise with across-the-board goodness if he can get minutes.
  • Webster, Martell SF/SG MIN - Could also see minutes for the Timberwolves and drain threes.
  • Butler, Rasual SF/SG LAC - Good threes last season. Could still provide those.
  • Belinelli, Marco SG TOR - Should get off to good start with threes but could fade as Thornton re-emerges.
  • Garcia, Francisco SG/SF SAC - In the mix for wing minutes. Nice 1-1 STL-BLK player.
  • Casspi, Omri SF SAC - Also in the mix. See who emerges opening night.
  • Fernandez, Rudy SG POR - Could provide threes off the bench behind Roy.
  • Stojakovic, Peja SF NO - Bench role on the Hornets now, but could still tally threes.
  • Azubuike, Kelenna SF GS - We don't know when he'll be back or how he'll fit in, but he's talented.
  • Villanueva, Charlie F DET - Lost in a very unsettled rotation.
  • DeRozan, DeMar SG TOR - Offers athleticism first and foremost. Should provide solid 85% FTP.
  • Parker, Anthony SG CLE - The Cavs starting SG could get you 80 threes and 1.0 steals.
  • Mason Jr., Roger SG/PG SA - Who knows what could happen in that fluid Knicks rotation.
  • Bell, Raja SG CHA - Should nail down one three per game plus 10-3-2 PTS-REB-AST if he can get minutes.
Passers (AST)
  • Williams, Lou G PHI - Could conceivably do okay off the bench in sixth man role.
  • Lawson, Ty PG DEN - Not enough minutes, but good talent.
  • Bynum, Will PG DET - Won't get PT initially but could do well enough in deep leagues if he does.
  • Foye, Randy SG/PG WAS - Will benefit from Baron Davis' missed games when they come.
  • Fisher, Derek PG LAL - Will get lost in the shuffle on a loaded Lakers team but still provide 86% FTP and 100 threes.
  • Blake, Steve PG LAL - Or maybe Blake will offer 100 threes and 4 assists.
  • Lowry, Kyle PG HOU - Behind Aaron Brooks, but should still offer 3 assists.
