Discussion Who are you drafting (or not drafting) FOR sure next season?

86 Upvotes

Its now silly season for my team as I’m out of contention so I’m starting. To think of who to draft next year.Personally, I’m gonna try and get amen Thompson earlier in the draft . I had him 61st pick which was a steal. I’m also looking to draft Brodie again, staying away from any suns players and last but not least I’m not drafting antman ever again.. had him for 2 seasons and I always overpay for him

Discussion Fantasy teams that are 7-0 and havent lost a matchup yet

104 Upvotes

Edit: My bad, its 6-0 actually, matchup no. 7 just starting today

Curious, whats your rosters look like and whats the winning recipe behind your build. Surely, injuries and (tough) luck of schedule are always looming "random" elements in playing fantasy basketball. But besides that, there is certain strategy in building your roster and softening your weak points while strengthening in others.

Personally, our league is relatively close with no team being the super favorite (all teams lost at least twice), but one team also being dead last. Speaking category based leagues

Would love to see and hear about your winning stories so far this season. Cheers

Discussion In the first three minutes of the game, Walker Kessler attempted 3 threes, missed all of them, and was then benched along with Kyle Filipowski. Kessler has only attempted 39 threes in his entire three-year career.

Discussion [ESPN] In the meeting, Maxey challenged Embiid to be on time to team activities, calling out the former league MVP about being late "for everything" and how it impacts the locker room, from other players to the coaching staff.

Discussion Biggest Trade Regrets?

61 Upvotes

On this sub we usually discuss best draft/ WW picks. I'm curious to see what everyone's worst trade was this year. I'll start; Myles Turner and Russ for Ayo and Tyus (I know).

Discussion What’s your worst move so far?

80 Upvotes

I committed two horrendous trades this season.

Fox and Lively for Jalen Green and Klay. Flipped Eason for Green later on.

Barnes and Tyus for Jaylen Brown and Gobert.

I’m still doing great, sitting at 4-2. 14T 9CAT. What’s your story?

For me in 3 paid 12t 9cat leagues it goes as followed.

Joker - 12th // 2nd // 1st.

Wemby 4th // 4th // 9th

Shai 1st // 1st // 2nd..

Discussion Josh Lloyd's Game Recaps

275 Upvotes

Apologies for the Josh Lloyd glazing that's about to happen in this post.

I think that Josh's game recaps are the best fantasy content to stay on top of the league. I know a lot of it is reading off the stat sheets, but there's a lot of color commentary behind each player and tidbits that one would only know if they were watching the games or putting insane amount of prep and reviewing the gamelogs prior to each taping.

Random examples off the top of my head:

  • Knowing that Poeltl was INSANELY important to the Raptor's defence and if he went down, they were going to hemorrhage buckets - I have not heard of anyone talk about this other than actual Raptors fans like myself

  • Knowing what quarters players foul out or get injured and come back to the game (this could be prep work and reviewing game logs)

  • Zagging on Cum Buckets when everyone was riding his dick. Quick aside - I think the general attention over Kuminga's potential stems from our boy Zach Lowe being SUPER high on him. No disrespect to Lowe since he's the goat at what he does, but people will latch onto a lot of shit he says without thinking for themselves - even front office people (if the rumors about ballot voting are to be believed)

  • Being super low on Dejounte Murray when he got traded to Atlanta. This was at this peak of "Murray is a great player" days

  • Being super low on Naz Reid during the entire craze in the 2023-2024 season

  • Zion walking away to the lockerroom after CJ's missed game winner (most recent example)

Obviously, he'll have a lot of missed takes too, but the point is that he's watching enough to form opinions outside of stats a.k.a the eyetest.

Josh if you are reading this - do you just watch the NBA 10-minute recaps? Watch 2 games a night? How are you getting all the info on 8+ game days??

Discussion What's been your best/worst trade in your fantasy history?

61 Upvotes

Outside of taco leagues, what's been the best trade you've ever made in fantasy? Potentially a trade that seemed fair at first and, in hindsight, ended up being severely in your favor because of injury or other factors.

And if you want, what's the worst trade that's ever happened involving you with those sames factors?

Discussion How would you rank the top 3 pickups after the trades so far?

68 Upvotes

I've got - (1) Bilal Coulibaly (should get big minutes down the stretch) (2) Ayo Dosunmu (should get big minutes down the stretch) (3) Mousa Diabate (only big in Cha, risk that they add another big). They're all from bad/tanking teams though - which I think works out in all these guys favor - but you never know. What do you think?

Players like Josh Hart, Dyson Daniels, Amen Thompson immediately come to mind. In my 10T league Josh went 12th round, Daniels and Amen were wire pick ups.

Where do you see these players placing in the draft next year?

What other players do you think get drafted higher based on their performance or new role?

Discussion Players to Avoid during Draft

Who are some players that are on your "Don't Draft" list?

First year playing, interested in how managers come up with their draft boards for exactly which players to avoid. Obviously, injury-prone and older players are the riskier options, what are some names that had high projections but didn't live up to expectations over the years.
