Exchange Center: Week 1

Posted by Alvin Lai Categories: H2H, Talent, Waiver Pick Ups

I know, I know, I probably need to come up with a better title than “Exchange Center.” This feature will aim to comment on the add/drop transactions in leagues that I play in, especially those in our experts’ league. There should be more stuff on our draft and league very soon.

Jamison’s Okay.  Haywood, Not So Much.

The first preseason game for the Washington Wizards did not go as planned.  Not only is Gilbert Arenas slated to miss some crucial time, but injuries to forward Antawn Jamison and center Brendan Haywood added a little salt in the wound.  News today says that Jamison only has a bruised knee and should be good to go.  Haywood, however, is looking to miss the next four-to-six months with wrist surgery.

I want to apologize in advance for all of the swingmen listed in this week’s edition of Wire to Wire.  If anything, this shows us that we should never overpay for shooting guards and small forwards on draft day, as there is plenty of value on the wire within the first few weeks of the season.  Later on, we have to count on injuries and trades, but out of the gate is where we’ll see which roles that players have in their respective systems.  With that said, here are this week’s targets for your wholesome waiver wire additions.
