Who should I start, Lamar or Shawn Marion?

Question

Okay, this is another nba fantasy question. I've drafted these 13 players: Kobe Bryant, Chris Paul, Kevin Garnett, Jermaine O'Neal, Shawn Marion, Lamar Odom, Dwight Howard, Elton Brand, Joe Johnson, Kirk Heinrich, Andrei Kirilinko, Rashard Lewis, Zydrunaus Ilgauskas.
So I've got these starters, CP3, Kobe, K.G. and Jermaine O'Neal. Who should I start as the SF Lamar or Marion. Plus tell me your thoughts on my draft picks. thanks

This comment is to bigpoppa who answered this question near the bottom. First of all, stop bitching about my draft picks. Yes, I did get them, part of it was because I had the first pick and some of the others in my league aren't to good at fantasy or aren't familiar with nba stars too much. However some of them do understand it. And no, I'm not the commisioner. Second, my question about startin lamar or marion isn't stupid so **** you. I was wondering if Marion's stats and production would go down because of stoudmire's return and the limited minutes for nash this season. So once again, please stop bitching and add some constructive comments. Not some ******* complaints. thanks to the rest of u guys for giving me some advice.

Answer 1

Shawn marion is the best player in fantasy drafts because he scores 19 pts, 9 rebs, almost a few blks and steals.

He also hits more trays than most guards and he is seldomed hurt.

His only weakness is assists, but paul and kirk h will get those for you.

lamar a good overall game every 3 days but marion does it almost everynight.

BTW. Your team is DEVASTATING, you will win easily. Marion, K.G. and kobe are ranked by pros at 1,2,and 3.

Answer 2

Odom is a homeless man's version of Shawn Marion. Marion, while not considered a top 5 NBA player, has consistently been a top 5 fantasy player for a few years now.

Marion scores, rebounds, blocks shots, shoots 3's, gets steals, and throws a few assists. The only other player that does this well is Andrei Kirilenko, and you have him on your team as well. Odom will get you some of those categories, just not as well as Marion.

If you don't win this league, there is something wrong because the only category you might be light in is assists as you only have 2 pg's, but Mamba, KG, Marion, and Johnson might be able to help you there.

Do you only start 5 players? If so, I would go with Paul, Mamba, Marion, KG, and Brand and if you have two utilities, go with Kirilenko and either Howard or Johnson.

Answer 3

SHAWN MARION! By far, Shawn Marion. He's fantasy gold. Points, steals, rebounds, some threes here and there. He's waaaay better than Odom. Looks like you cleaned up in the draft. I'd start either Howard or Brand instead of O'Neal, though. You'll beat the **** out people in rebounds. I think Brand is better than O'Neal in almost every category. Other than that, your starters look pretty damn good.

Answer 4

Shawn Marion

Answer 5

Shawn Marion

Answer 6

i doubt highly u got those players kg marion kobe brand and howard are all first round picks so either u own the league and gave yourself those players or there are only 2 people in your league. do u take us all for idiots to think u actually have this team and if u do please post where i/we can see it. and even if u had lamar and marion on a real team if u start odom over marion u shouldnt even be playing. marion has ended the last 2 years as the best fantasy player. so why even ask. take your nonsense questions to a bunch of 2nd graders who might actually think u drafted all those players. i wish i was in the league your in i would destroy all of u. and no marions stats arent going to go down.

Answer 7

Dayum, that's a great team. I would scratch Jermaine O'Neal from the starting lineup because he's battling an injury right now. Dwight Howard's going to blow up this year, I would put him in O'Neal's place, and between Odom and Marion, it's not even close...you have to go with Marion. Statistically he's just a monster...and Odom's unpredictable in comparison.

Answer 8

go with shawn marion with steve nash playing like he has the past to years he makes everyone else around him better. with kobe taking all of the shots all the lamar can do is rebound and maybe score 20 points and damn u got a good draft wow mine sucks compared to urs

hey how did u get kg,and kobe they are both 1st rounders u got lucky

Answer 9

First off you had a Great Draft! It kinda makes me want to join another league just so i can be able to draft again.
I would try to get another Center unless your league allows you to use J.O'Neal or KG as a Center but i would start Marion.
Good Luck!

Answer 10

I the two agree and disagree. I agree that if loads of those adult adult males all started mutually they may be beast and while you're taking Jason terry out of the commencing lineup he ought to be an miraculous 6th guy. This lineup might get much extra wins then the present commencing lineup and can be lots extra effective the two offensively and defensively. even nevertheless, I additionally disagree with thought because of the fact Carter is previous and has had injuries that sluggish him down so his minutes ought to be stored short to maintain him healthful. Odem has had a coarse year so he will choose extra time to regulate. Dirk is the huge call participant of the Mavs so as this is the only reason he remains interior the commencing lineup. together with his age he ought to be enjoying much less minutes with the intention to stay healthful yet human beings pay huge money too see him play so the Mavs placed him in each and every night. one extra undertaking nevertheless. i might decide to point out is that because of the lockout, communities have been enjoying extra often so as that they have got much less time to relax between video games so consistent with hazard next year we are able to get to be sure Vince, Odem, Dirk, Marion, Kidd lineup when you consider that they might have extra time to relax between video games.
