Emeka Okafor’s Blocks and Boards…

...Will continue to be produced in Charlotte.
Not to be outdone by Andris Biedrins, the Charlotte Bobcats signed offense-less big man Emeka Okafor to a six year, $72 million deal. There were a few rumors of a sign and trade, but one look at the rest of the low post players on the Bobcats’ roster, and there was a very slim chance that this would happen. I can’t imagine that Larry Brown has a ton of faith in Sean May staying healthy this year, and the Ryan Hollins/Nazr Mohammed combo isn’t exactly the most prolific in the game.

Andris Biedrins Makes Me Nervous

This may just be the skeptic in me, but I think I’ll be staying away from Andris Biedrins this year. He could be my “contract year” guy of yesteryear, that simply won’t put up numbers worth the money he’ll be getting paid.
After signing Monta Ellis to a new lucrative deal, the Warriors used up another $60 million on the Latvian big man with the crazy-spiked hair. With Elton Brand going East, and Baron Davis going to L.A., the Warriors may have felt that they’re just going to roll on with a core group of guys; and $120 million of that will go towards the aforementioned pair.

Monta Ellis is Staying Put
Posted by Scott Sargent Categories: Free Agency, Roto, Talent, Golden State Warriors
Feel free to put Monta Ellis firmly in your early rounds for any cheatsheets you may be putting together. If there was any doubt that Ellis could be playing elsewhere, the Golden State Warriors put the kibosh on it in the ways of a six-year, $66 million deal.
Ellis wanted to stay in the Bay Area, and he got his wish. Oh, and he’ll be making a bit more money in the meantime. The addition of Marcus Williams may worry a few people in terms of a time share, but after shelling out $11 million a year, you better believe that Ellis will get his burn. He’s 22-years old, and could easily find himself in the late first round in keeper formats. Redrafts can feel comfortable taking him any time after Steve Nash is off of the board - which is looking like the mid-to-late second round at this point.
