The Good: In Lebron we trust. Any fantasy team with LBJ has a puncher's chance that he decides it's time to crank it up a notch and take it to the next level in the regular season. Overall this team has excellent balance, although the biggest single strength is blocks. Likely will only score less than 5 in one category at most.
The Bad: Free Throw Percentage is the one achilles heel it would seem. Although if Lebron can crank it up at the line, much of this team's potential pitfalls go away.
The Ugly: Health! Camby (2), Artest (4) & TJ Ford (7) could all have Hospital wings named after them given their injury histories, well for Artest it's likely more an ultimate fighting ring. If these guys don't combine for 180 games, it'll be a problem.

Best Pick: Jose Calderon (3rd) was one of the gutsier picks in the draft as it was taking a guy betting on the exodus of TJ Ford from Raptor-Land would hugely increase his numbers, but the upside here is big and if it pays off could be why the Mooksters cash. LeMarcus Aldridge (6th) due to his upside & the key fact that this team desperately needed a 3rd center for when Camby is a DNP and Aldridge solves that at a reasonable cost with upside potential.

This Team Could Win if...Marcus Camby plays 70 games. That could be the whole key to the season - Marcus Camby's health. If he plays, he'll produce rebounds & blocks by the bucket full, if he doesn't...Ron Artest staying sane wouldn't hurt either, but Camby's the irreplaceable one if the goal is to win...
