What Are People Talking About?

  • How are Al Jefferson's and Paul Pierce's fantasy value affected if 'The Answer' joins the team? I'm assuming since AI doesn't know how to pass the rock, they'll never see it again. Just ask C-Webb.
  • Ah, Chris Webber, another guy that all too often ended on one of my fantasy teams… those were good days.

    Anyway, I don't think that Al Jefferson's fantasy value will be affected all that much by AI, if he indeed goes to Boston. Jefferson’s a good offensive rebounder and he can score a decent amount of points without the ball in his hands very often. Pierce is an interesting case, though. He’s obviously better than C-Webb at this stage in his career, but he does benefit from a significant amount of touches on the Celtics. AI is leading the league in shots a game (24.4) and Pierce is 12th (18). Maybe if they played for Denver they could keep up a pace like that, but on the Celtics, their both likely losing a few shots a game. Maybe even more for Iverson, assuming the Truth trumps the Answer, or something like that
