Hey All

just curious to know who will put away which players this season or move cards before this season in case the arse falls out of their cards...these are my thoughts:

put away and take a punt:
eric Bledsoe...I know the suns aren't going anywhere soon...but this guy has some serious talent...could post some big numbers....

tobias harris...this guy has some star potential...

nikola vucevic...this guy is a beast...

Gerald Henderson...this guy has heaps of talent ,but injuries and a crap team have held him back..both could change this year?

nick young...this one is a maybe, if he plays well and puts up some good scoring numbers LA's big market will show him some love...

greg oden...forgotten about former no.1 pick, if he is healthy and shows signs with the defending champs, maybe he will get some hobby love...

stars that could shine brighter...
john wall--my pick for a stellar year, out on a limb this guy could be as good as derrick rose...untapped talent...

Harrison barnes--after his showing in the playoffs, big things for him this season?

Brandon Jennings--change of address and some pretty good talents around him...he could shine brighter...

Kevin Love--should be healthy this year, if he and Rubio are on their game, along with the addition of kevin martin to spread the floor, look for him to have a huge year and maybe get to the playoffs?

Kemba Walker--heaps of talent, a year wiser and a better supporting cast equals a good year for the little fella...

I wouldn't bother/get rid of their cards...
Michael Beasley--major disappointment, lots of talent but makes stupid decisions can you say jr rider/latrell Sprewell...

Andrew Bynum--if healthy could contribute, but probably will go bowling again and become an overpaid spectator again...

Blake Griffin--heaps of talent and athleticism...but his numbers decline each year, needs to become the "franchsie"...

Derrick Rose--tough call this one, will he be as good? the team isn't..they have lost a lot of toughness and hustle with asik/robinson etc not there, they may end up being about the 5-6 best team in the east behind the heat/nets/pacers and probably the knicks/wizards...
 
I thought (still think) Harris is a bit overpriced right now, but I hit his NT RPA in a group break so just started picking up some higher end stuff for a small PC
 
Monta Ellis? - seems like he doesn't get huge hobby love no matter what he does. I was thinking of him like Brandon Jennings - but when BJ had that 55 point game his cards went through the roof for a while. Monta just plugs away with the 15-35 point games. Weird. What's the difference between them? Kind of in the Nick Young basket as talented scorers with some fans but not much sale value?

Also not putting it past Cuban to get another decent player to accompany Dirk and Ellis. Could create some hype there.

Harrison Barnes - good market. Bogut due for some good output too and that frenzied Golden State fan base is pushing prices up already. This perhaps rides on Stephen Curry health (this guys ankles still scare me, I hope he has found a good trainer/strengthening method)

Kevin Love - hopefully he comes back with a vengeance (like I'm hoping for DRose too) - as soon as they play a bit his prices could double on the stuff selling in the $15-35 range imo. Rubio was still not 100% last year so teamed up with Pekovic (if he gets his contract) should be a fun trio! (make it quad with Derrick Williams who has quietly been working on his 3 pt shot in this off season too)

Dwight Howard - big drop after Lakers - put up some good numbers and get the Houston win-loss record looking good and they should rise, especially when some Houston cards come out

Anthony Davis - settling in, USA bball experience, some new roster additions, could be a big year. Really like him.

Andre Drummond - always hear the 'un-tradeable' tag, Monroe has his good run, could be Drummonds turn.

Kyrie - his offseason camps + Uncle Drew persona could still push some cards to new heights

Lin - don't forget he is coming back from an injury too - Dwight, Harden, Parsons..... me likey the sitch!

People speculating on Jimmy Butler, Tobias Harris and a few others have already pushed prices beyond the reasonable buy-for-a-flip-after-a-good-game potential imo.

Yeh agree on this and have to put Harrison Barnes in this group as well, $500 for his RPA right now is crazy considering the players he has to compete with for points and playing time
 
I considered mayo in that group, started on fire in dallas then fizzled a bit...jimmy bultler I overlooked and think he could do some things...
Paul George also while his cards aren't cheap, could go to the next level this season
