Stanimal's recent run of play (6 games or so) and outburst against the Knicks coincides with KCP's groin injury. Stan feels more like a streamable player depending on size of your league, but kudos to him for seizing the opportunity. He has as close to a NBA body as it gets and was actually my ROY pick over the current favorites, KAT and Porzingis.

'Melo's left knee is becoming a real concern. He was my second-round pick (20th overall) in a 10-team league. Very possible the Knicks shut him down the further they fade from playoff contention.
 
Keep an eye out for Schroder if he's still available.

Teague is probably gone.

Marc Gasol has a broken right foot and will be out indefinitely.

Jeff Green Matt Barnes, Brandan Wright, and Ryan Hollins should probably see their roles increased. We'll have to see if Wright and Hollins take on significant minutes or if Joerger will go small-ball like he did earlier this season with Z-Bo out.

Yeah I was looking at Schroder, but he's still on waivers right now. I was also thinking of E'Twaun Moore with Jimmy Butler out 3-4 weeks.

Should I pick up one of them and drop Brandon Knight? I've held onto Knight this long I feel like I should just wait until Post-ASB to see what's up; I know there have been talks of him being a shut down candidate.

Can't speak for you but I did drop Tyreke for him.
 
I have good amount of control over my playoff seed; which team would you rather play in the first round?

If y'all were in a 12 team, 18 roster, 10 cat (8 cat +FGM, +DD) dynasty league, which is pretty much a 16 team standard league, would you ship Curry for depth? Like a 2 for 1? If so, would a late 1st rounder + 2nd rounder be enough? WW is super dry. 
 
ive been holding ty lawson hoping he gets traded to an ideal situation to solidify the ast category for me; however, i need help with 3's as well. should i drop lawson for eric gordon and pick up a 2nd string pg?

I don't play dynasty leagues but if I don't have someone that is worth dropping then I don't do it. Honestly, I prefer giving 2 players and getting 1 in return.

never trade unless you get the best player in the trade. if you have steph curry i dont think you can trade him, especially in dynasty. WW will always open up. random dudes like etwan moore, raul neto, norris cole etc have gained value because of injuries. there is ALWAYS someone to pick up in fantasy basketball. just wait it out. this week is gonna be interesting because trades will be made. hold off on using your adds/waivers until this weekend

YES!!! why would you still have lawson? he has no trade value in real life at this point and eric gordon is back soon. who else is in your FA?

I do too, but isn't it quantity > quality in deeper leagues since the waiver is thin? While as a 2 for 1 in a 12 team or smaller is best since you can find a decent player to pick up afterwards. But idk, this is what i've just heard over forums and what-not.

Alright, guess I'll stay put. I've just been thinking if I could get Kyrie + PG13 for Curry + scrub, I'd probably accept it. I'll hold for now though.

Yes, definitely do that, especially with the news about Tyreke. Lawson is ww material at this point (and pretty much has been since the start of the season).

Trying to trade away Steph Curry in a Dynasty league for depth? Am I reading that right?
 
Speaking of 2-for-1s, at the beginning of the season the guy with No. 1 overall pick traded it for someone's first and second round picks. Anthony Davis ended up being taken first overall :smh: and the other guy drafted Demarcus Cousins and Paul George. The guy with Boogie and PG-13 is currently first. Looking back that trade probably shouldn't have happened :lol:

I'm a close second right now though so I'm not that mad.

I've gotten a little trade happy and now I only have 3 of my players that I originally drafted. (One of them is PJ Tucker who has been dropped and picked up multiple times.) The other two are Westbrook and Brook Lopez lol
 
1st overall for a late 1st and early 2nd is okay IMO. but he shouldve at least gotten back a 5th rd pick with the 1st overall

anthony davis is quietly having a top 5 kind of season so i dont mind the pick especially with the hype he had earlier in the season
 
id wait til after ASB to drop kelly. grant hasnt been closing out games even though he puts up good numbers
