OFFICIAL 2015-2016 NBA FANTASY BASKETBALL THREAD

[AgentZero]

Brandon Knight sitting out the 4-game road trip. If you got someone you're itching to cut, pick up Archie Goodwin NOW.

Man, I wanna pick up either Goodwin or Len but I don't know what I cut. Sucks that I have Brandon Knight but I won't panic and drop hin right now. The end of my roster is JR Smith, Omri Casspi, Willy Cauley-Stein, and PJ Tucker. Should I drop any of them for either Goodwin or Len? Maybe both?

I wouldn't drop any of them, unless Knight's injury is actually more severe and he's out much longer. If you do add anyone I'd add Goodwin over Len. For whatever reason, Hornacek won't start him consistently despite it being a rebuilding year and would rather play him at even time with Chandler. Once the Suns' PFs are healthy his time will decrease again.

I am thinking about dropping this bum Aminu but idk who to scoop up.

These are my FA's

I wouldn't be too quick to drop Aminu, but if you want to I'd target Sloan, Booker, and Cauley-Stein in that order.

I was thinking of picking up Goodwin or Kidd Gilchrist, when he comes back, but not sure if anyone of my guys is bad enough to drop.
I am currently 1st
what do yall think

I wouldn't add either of them, but continue to monitor Knight's health. If he's out long-term I'd drop Sloan for Goodwin.

^^Imma have to hold on to this bum

caspi

stein (if gay comes back)

tucker

jr 

in that order

Maybe I am just salty about drafting him but I feel Aminu should be producing more.

I am leaning towards Booker. My fear is that he may get benched once the starters return.

what were you expecting from aminu this year and what round did you draft him? hes giving you 10/6.5 from the SF spot with almost 1stl/1blk and 1+ 3pters per game. his percentages arent great but if you got him in the 10th or later then hes been pretty solid

 

[benzilla427]

Beal out with a broken nose and no timetable. I hope whoever was trying to trade for him in here dodged that bullet.

Blake Griffin out for a few more weeks after breaking his hand punching an equipment staff member...

I can't remember what round I drafting him but I believe I drafted him because of his new contract in Portland.

That would be me. I dodge a bullet indeed. Dude trying to make the trade drop Beal this morning

id much rather have len than jokic or miles at this point

len 

smith

cole

barnes

johnson

all have potential and should be rostered

 

[benzilla427]

Holy crap Brandon Knight is frustrating me right now. 

No timetable and there's also a possibility he's shut down for the season.

Any other frustrated BKnight owners in here?

Yeah I got Knight as well smh. I had Bledsoe and when he got hurt I picked up Ish Smith.

 

[benzilla427]

I offered my Greek Freak and Jordan Clarkson for his Lillard.

My team:
Westbrook
Wall
Lopez
Knight
Greg Monroe
Gallinari
Wes Matthews
J.R. Smith
P.J. Tucker
Omri Casspi
Willy Cauley-Stein

And Greek Freak & Clarkson of course.

Lillard's owner said he'd sleep on it but I already sent the offer. Assuming he's down should I go through with it?

seems like a good trade but you have wall and westbrook at PG so i dont see why to bring in another PG 

 

[ayotayo]

Is Barton not playing?

 

[AgentZero]

Is Barton not playing?

Not sure if he hadn't entered the game when you first asked, but he is.

 

[socalkid]

Glad I picked up MKG on the day he returned.
Hopefully he plays this way the rest of the season.

 

[snowinsahara]

what do you guys think of my brolo & gary harris for middleton & gobert?

 

[big van vader]

Should I be dropping Faried for Jokic?

 

[benzilla427]

what do you guys think of my brolo & gary harris for middleton & gobert?

What are you trying to improve? I feel that Brook is the best player in the trade and I typically tenf to favor that side. But this seems like a very fair trade. I'd probably do it.

Should I be dropping Faried for Jokic?

I probably would. Mike Malone seems to be high on Jokic so I can see him getting loads of minutes. Plus, Nurkic seems like it'll take quite a while for him to get back into form.

 

[benzilla427]

 Just traded for Kemba and now he's questionable for tomorrow due to a sore knee...hopefully it's nothing serious. I already have a useless Brandon Knight sitting.


Right after Greek Freak for Kemba I traded my John Wall & Wes Matthews for Kristaps Porzingawd & Ricky Rubio. I'm sad to ship Wall off but I really wanted to get rid of a heavily slumping Wes Matthews. He was getting to just be a liability. Probably gonna be shopping Rubio now.

 

[nike4kja05]

Definitely in a pickle right now with my squad. I got Dragic in IR and need to activate him but I have no idea who to drop. It's between Barnes, Cole, and Payton. Who would you guys rather keep for the rest of the season? I'm a lock for the playoffs with a month left in my league for the regular season so now it is fine tuning my squad and getting ready to get back to the championship for the 3rd year in a row.


Edit: Also its a 9 Cat H2H 12 team league

id drop elf. hes way too inconsistent for my taste. also you would be carrying 3 PGs when dragic is back in your lineup so its fine

That is who I was leaning towards dropping. With Oladipo back in the starting lineup, Payton will have the ball less to create.

 

[ironmike]

Picked up Stanley Johnson just yesterday before the game 

 Hopefully he keeps this up.
