Last year the Hornets played the Nuggets 4 times
Two times, CP3 didn't play
One time, he put up 26/10, Billups put up 20/9, Paul shot above .500 FG%, Billups below
Other time, Billups didn't play, CP3 put up 30/9/19
They only played each other H2H once and CP3 played better defensively
He played the Bulls twice, but I don't see how you compare his performance with Hinrich really since D-Rose plays the 1 for the Bulls, Hinrich essentially played the 2 last year
As far as Yao Ming, due to the no injury policy, in this redraft his knees can't really be held against him. Granted, he won't be expected to play as much 3 years from now at age 31, but assuming good knees, he will still be a force when he is playing and can put up 30-35 minutes a game of dominant play on both ends of the court. Defensively, I would take DH12 and a couple guys over him, but due to his height, assuming good knees, I think he can make a case for top 5
