NBA real DT!

[R.Griffen]

First move will be Kawhi -> Barnes  Spurs don't have it completely together yet and Kawhi has quietened down somewhat, Dallas are injury plagued and Barnes is taking control.

Next 2 trades aren't so easy, if I want to bring McCaw in, it would have to be for Saric or Seth Curry, Saric is more streaky so I think I'll have to say bye.  Then I need to turn Dunn into a starting PG, either Lillard or Kemba at this stage.

Go Lillard, as much as I love Kemba he can easily go out and shoot 2/20

Some players to look at:

Josh Richardson (Miami) - Should see 30+ minutes at SG, but also will be backing up PG till Dragic is fully healthy.  Can score, pass and rebound, tempted to triple downgrade and would if I wasn't ranked 22 overall.  Need to keep my score ticking over so will have to pass unfortunately. $3,840,000

Patrick McCaw (Warriors) - Spoke about this guy over a week ago, will play 15-20mins most games to give the starters a breather, slow burn, but best bet for that price. $2,600,000

Seth Curry (Dallas) - Had this guy since the start, confidence is growing, getting more minutes cos of injuries and also because he's picking up his defence.  It's in the genes and this one's incubating.  Already had a big game scoring 23 pts with 5 stls starting at PG.  Still cheap. $4,100,000

Lucas  Nogueira (Raptors) - If you saw the name you'd automatically think we were about to watch a UFC fight.  I remember when he got drafted, everyone was shocked cos noone knew who this kid with the fro was, Raptors sure did their homework.  Slightly more pricey, but Raptors seem to trust him and he's getting minutes, JV is back though so wonder if it continues? $4,550,000

Tomas Satoransky (Wizards) - This ones highly speculative, but he plays with 2 guards who are injury prone in Wall and Beal, both guys rested the other day and he came up with 12pts, 9ass, 4rbds and 1stl. $2,810,000

Ersan Ilyasova (76ers) - Guy can double double with consistent minutes, but thats the problem, has started out well for 76ers, but they play a tonne of guys so not sure if the 30minute runs continue.  Has always had incredible purple patches, however has consistently had even longer and worse bad patches.  If he was guaranteed starters minutes then I'd prob lock him into my on field PF position.  Double bad because we all have Saric and they play the same position. $4,870,000

Trey Lyles (Jazz) - Favors has gone and hurt his back again, but we don't know the extent of the injury.  If he's out (hopefully not for the sake of my ESPN money league fantasy team) then Lyles starts, however he got the opportunity early in the year when Favors was out and he didn't do much. $3,480,000


For the record I'm dumping Kawhi, Rodriguez and Dunn for Barnes, McCaw and Batum.

I'm actually short Lillard and Kemba, so have moved CJ to my PG's and brought in Batum to my SG spot.

JB must be spewing, has Westbrook captain, sitting on 843. If only he captained Anthony Davis and we would have seen 4 digits!

Was more spewing that PG sat out yesterday!

Where can we get that forecaster thing we had last week?

Harden vs Westbrook vs Davis for the skipper will be a tough choice, thoughts?

Harden for me I think. Playing 76ers first game if he scores 60 I'd be hating myself as it seems obvious (I do think 76ers stand a chance though so tbh I have no flowing clue)

Hard on all the way for me

[fanTCfool]

Nurkic sucked 1 million out of the team value in a single week, these price changes are savage  :'(

"Officially" according to the fantasy professionals (basketball monster, what I use), Blazers, Thunder and Mavs have the most favourable matchps for the week.  Westbrook for me.

i like that Westbrook has a day break between each game but Harden's efficiency is rolling...

Ersan has looked real good since coming to Philly. Interestingly enough they played him over Dario down the stretch in the second Pacers game. He seems to be consistently hitting the 3 ball and he can get rebounds in bunches from his days at the Bucks. I keep thinking maybe I should pick him but hadn't looked at his price until now. He is tempting me, especially with the opponents they have coming up.

[TomK]

Needed some cash to upgrade Dunn to move Rodriguez to the bench so I went -

Durant - Hayward (gain an extra game this week and 4.5m)
Embiid - Nogueira
Dunn - Lillard

Just need to get Swaggy P and Nogueira off my field and my team is good.
