I hate when your player gets injured. I picked KG with my first pick, and he totally killed me at the end. He missed like 25 games.

Bum shoulder. I don't think he will be playing the rest of the season

Yeah Fantasy playoffs can be brutal. You could have a guy on a losing team that they decide to rest because the season is a lost cause and he's banged up. You could also have a guy on a playoff team and the staff wants to rest him because he's being overworked. I've been screwed by it over the years as well. Nothing you could do about it, I know your frustration though.

They should have yanked him and VC 10 games ago. We would have better ping pong balls and the young guys would have been playing.

Devin should have been shut down for the year when he initially hurt his shoulder. A shoulder injury takes so long to come back 100%. Management still pushed for the playoffs was soley for economic reasons because having 2 playoff games here would ease the financial loss this year slightly. Yeah, it would have given the young guys some confidence with making the playoffs too, but we should have just shut Devin down and started playing our young guys big minutes. Letting them play through mistakes and learning from them is more important to me honestly than making the playoffs this year. Yeah making the playoffs would have been nice for them...but they would get swept and basically embarassed by the Cavs, which is worse in my opinion.
