You certainly did not. You paid the full price for him despite a buy-low opportunity.

Anyone who wants to vote on the trade, please do it so until 5 pm EST today (Friday).

Here's my .02 euro...

I don't like the deal. It clearly favors Fran, IMO. Sure, Drummond could fit JFrost's team, but Cousins is clearly the best player here, and I think he's better than Reke and Drummond together.

However...I only vote veto if it's clear collusion, not if it's just a deal that favors one manager over the other. Trade negotiations in this league take interminably long, and I believe that if both Fran and JFrost have come to an agreement, then there's really very little reason to penalize Fran if he gets a good deal. I would only vote veto if the deal is clearly collusion, and this clearly is not, or if a deal throws the balance of power over onto one team unfairly, and though this trade makes Fran a whole lot better, even a contender, I don't think it unfairly makes him an unbeatable team by any means.

So I vote NO on veto.

The 4th week is almost done and we can make a reviews !!! Jazz a few years ago used to type your last 5 picks I going to do that + the wrost pick in the draft + the wrost trade in the draft + the wrost droops off

My last 5 picks

269 Fran - Derrick Williams - He finished last season on sac with almost 25mpg the pf situation on sac didn´t change i thought i had a steal but early in the season i saw i didn´t so i droop him. Ps he mad his 1st 22mpg game finishing w 10 pts 2r 2a TK is holding him lets see if it pays out

258 Fran - Bojan Bogdanovic -like Derrick i thought i had a steal here and i wasn´t wrong. Right now he is top 130 material but he is climbing last 7 days top 115 and i belive he going to crack top 100 soon

220 Fran - Thabo Sefolosha - He got paid so i thought he might get the sf spot he didn´t and i decided to give it away. in the 1st week he got 16.3mpg and i decided to droop him. Latter carroll got injured and that give me a top 3 wrost droop.

178 Fran - Tyler Zeller- Die hard C´s fan decided to bet big here since i overpay in a trade to get him but like thabo zeller didnt enter the c´s rotation in the 1st week and i decided to droop him. He is been in and out the rotation with games that he gets 8m and others that he gets 18. I dont mind the droop i mind drafting him so high.

149 Fran - Mirza Teletovic is top 100 material right now and kg didnt miss a single game that means the best is yet to come and i m happy with this pick

The wrost draft trade

Trade #21:
Ham trades Joe Johnson
Fran trades Josh McRoberts

to tell you the truth when I made this trade i knew what i was getting and Ham and even myself thought what we were getting/giving
Josh is having a terrible start of the season and JJ is playing even better that i thought he would.

The wrost draft pick
I think the consensus pick is exum and i really think it´s.

The wrost droop off
I going to give this award to two gm Wb for Solomon Hill and myself for Thabo. I still dont understand why didn we hold to them.

6-3 in favor of no veto. The deal stands.

No argument from me. JJ was better than I thought too. McRobert's was/is hurt and looks terrible right now. He might still turn it around, but I am less optimistic (at least I was able to pick up Shawne Williams to somewhat handcuff him). Can't really drop him right now and my team has been riddled with injuries so I think I have to stay the course and reevaluate in a couple of weeks.

I think I was going to draft JJ if you didn't. He had a strong second half last year.

I do hope that Drummond pulls his head out of his ass and makes this deal close to fair.

On papper @ the time i really thought it worked for both. I can´t understand how they paid him and granger and both are not playing. Granger i can understand he coming for a couple inj seasons but Mcrob i m cluess.

SVG is making him into a post player and thats the problem right now imo
If you add that he been getting in foul trouble
=
a mess

2 things can happend to change the situation
a) svg realizes that he need to go back to basic
b) a trade happends

Even still if reke keeps playing like he is and i dont think anyone here been watching NO he been playing on D like sf and on O like a Pg that right now is why he is getting 7 ast 6.5 reb and this is why the deal is close even right now

we all know it's not even remotely close to a fair deal, save your efforts for something else fraan. anyway what's done is done.
Yesterday, Drummond was good, though I think he's always good vs the Hawks.

So much for that. Elfrid was better than Lin last night.
I like the numbers to do the talking...

Whered Elfrid go?

4 weeks in and there is only one player on my team who hasnt missed a game yet.

jfrost · Post #1199 » by **jfrost** » Sat Nov 29, 2014 2:44 am

So, my deal is looking pretty good this week

Post #1200 » by **floppymoose** » Sat Nov 29, 2014 4:30 am

I figured Drummond would have some good games, but the surprise to me is Motiejunas came to life. He looked awful to me earlier.
