I'm guessing Monty Williams wants to run pick n roll sets with him where he sometimes floats out for the pick and pop.  I'm not going to second-guess him--he's a smart guy.  I just hope he doesn't keep Anthony outside too often so Holiday, Evans, and Gordon can attack 1 on 1.  The more I think about it, the more I think he'll shoot just enough to force defenses to respect it so they can space the floor better when they want to.  It's as much a decoy as anything else.  

Good thing Alvin Gentry will be coaching him, he'll probably be even better 

I can tell you first hand that Anthony Davis is a risk.  Two years ago he decided to get hurt just as I was entering the finals against Sir Thursday which seriously hurt my chance of winning.  I'll never forgive Davis for that...until he joins the Rockets, of course.

 

That being said, I'd take him again in a heartbeat.  Although, they keep talking about him moving out beyond the 3 pt. line this season and jacking a bunch of 3's.  Huge mistake for them if they do (in my humble opinion).  That guy needs to be near the basket.  As far as fantasy goes, that could reduce his rebound numbers while also hurting his fg%....

I saw a lot of his games last year, he could pretty much be a 35-40% 3 point shooter if he shot them, most of his shots were long midrange. Basically following Moreyball this way. Plus he still gets pushed around a lot, so he isn't nearly as good near the basket as the stats would make you think, he's amazing at facing up and  blowing past his guy.

You're forgetting Anthony Davis. That's a disgrace to my Unibrow following self.

1) Davis
2) Harden
3) Curry
4) Lebron
5) LMA
6) Durant

LMA isn't top 10 in my board, he'll get his minutes reduced with Pop. I'd draft Boogie Cousins instead of him

I think its got to be Davis or LeBron no?

LeBron may be in the talks too, but I wouldn't draft him #1 in a draft in which Davis and Harden are available (may be a little biased ), I love Harden's production in every stat from the most scarce position in fantasy: SG
