One of the questions I struggle with when putting together rankings is exactly how to rank the player. For instance, I think Marcus Camby is going to have a pretty good year (Kaman be damned), similar to what he did in Denver last year. Of course, for that to happen, he has to stay healthy and gel with Kaman - Big "ifs." Anyway, based on the numbers I was projecting and where Camby ended up last year, I had him as a Top 10 fantasy player originally.

But after going through four or five industry league mock drafts, it became clear that other folks weren't smelling what I was cooking. So I started inching Camby down the list until he landed in his righful spot of somewhere around No. 20. I still like him and think he's going to have a good year (if he ever gets into a preseason game - yikes), but there's no reason for you to target him in the first round if he's going to be there later.

Dwyane Wade started out ranked fairly low in leagues that count turnovers. I ranked him out of the Top 24 last year and caught heck for it, but he only made it through 51 games. But this year, things look and feel much different. He was great at the Olympics and seems healthy for the first time in forever. In leagues that don't count turnovers, i initially ranked Wade pretty high and about where he is going in drafts (5-10 overall). But in leagues that count turnovers, I figured he'd lead the league in that category and dropped him out of the first round.

Time may prove that is where he belongs, but it's sure not where he going. Turnovers or no turnovers, Wade is going anywhere from 5-12 in every draft I've seen. It took me a little time to accept the fact that I was probably wrong, but I finally came to my senses and bumped him up to the first round in both formats. Now we'll see if my original instinct was right or wrong.

A good friend once said to me "If nothing else, cheat sheets are fluid," which is certainly true. And as for guys like Lamar Odom, Andrei Kirilenko, Gilbert Arenas, Manu Ginobili and Monta Ellis, I say just stay away and let someone else deal with them. Odom and AK's new bench roles are simply scary, while the other three guys' injuries are so severe that they're not even "steal material" based on where you'll have to take them. There is a real possibility that Ellis and Arenas don't ever appear as their former selves this season, while Manu's minutes were already iffy to begin with. I say stay away.
