So, when are we going to do the lottery?
SHAZAM!

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

Unless I make a last minute change I'm keeping:
Davis
Embiid
Kemba
Millsap
Crabbe
Kuzma
Brogdon
OG Anunoby

OG is the tough one. I have others who would probably help me more this year and I'm trying to compete but I simply believe in his talent and think down the road he has top 50 upside.

I just don't see it with him from a stat perspective. He reminds me of Tucker to be honest (but more athletic obviously) - passes the eye test and plays hard, smart ball - but it doesn't translate to fantasy stats unfortunately.

He was literally the only player last season to play 1400 minutes and average less than 6pts and not hit either 3reb (2.5) or 2asst (0.7) or 1stl or 1blk. That's kinda hard to play that many minutes and not hit ANY of those relatively low stats, especially when you're as young and athletic as he is.

If anyone wants Willie Cauley-Stein, willing to package him + Buddy Hield, Harrison Barnes or Serge Ibaka for an upgrade.

Those stats do give me pause. Maybe he is one of those guys who's a better real player than fantasy guy. But man I really think the talent level is real and I think his role will continue to expand.

Anyone have any proposals/ ideas for rules to introduce in the 2019/2020 season? Would be best to vote before the start of this season :)


So kenny being out, he moves back to tier one I take it, and the foxy ones back to tier two? This one is interesting because he ended up bad not only because inactivity, but he had Kawhi, and Fultz, neither of who played much at all, so it's a good team to take over. At least 8 good keepers.

Kawhi Leonard Tor - SG,SF
Markelle Fultz Phi - PG,SG
Ben Simmons Phi - PG
Bam Adebayo Mia - PF,C

I'm sure a lot of people would say that, but typically when you take over a team in a dynasty or long time keeper league, you get crap, so at least we should get an excited owner.

Correct. It is a welcome gift for the incoming manager to waive the GP penalty.

My team moves back down to the second lottery tier.

We are only drafting 4 rounds so time shouldn't be an issue.
