I actually took FG% and FT% as a huge factor in who I selected in the draft. And so far, all my players are shooting below their normal career average. Everyone just seems to be chucking it up, lol.

Alright DeRozan/Melo are definitely on the trade block. Need rebounds and blocks. Shoot me some offers, though I won't take any offers under their value.

So...I had Kieff Morris on my line up yesterday. And Gerald Green too. I am a happy man for the day

There us nothing under the value of Melo atm :lol:

I'm frustrated with Melo, but I definitely wouldn't trade him. He's bound to get back into the groove soon. At least I have Kieff and Hayward putting up great games.

I have said I'm not gonna bother with any cheap deals. Admittedly his early struggles are part of why I'm looking for a trade. But most of it comes from the fact that I need production in other areas and Ive already many guys who can score and hit 3s.

Gotta get them blocks and rebounds. It's kind of crazy how strong every team is in the premier league in those categories. I have Al Horford and Bogut and I'm doing awful.

A little mad I gave up on Olynyk so early after two bad games and then he has a huge game right after I dropped him. Was going to pick him back up if he cleared waivers but of course he didn't. Dallas' point guards need to learn how to shoot. I won't stay at the top of fg% with more nights from them like last night.

I grabbed Olynyk as well but somebody with waiver priority got him

Melo, why you do this to me?

Was just going to say that I can't believe he's my best 3 pt shooter. Assists are killing my team with Calderon out too. Hope he comes back soon.

I always do, and I was leading in both for a while, but due to Calderon being out I dropped some bigs like Olynyk (shooting 60% AND hitting 3s...dumb drop in hindsight but he had just had two games with almost no stats...but I drafted the guy and should have stuck with him) and Dalembert, who also barely played in a few games to get some guards with assists, but most of them have such horrid fg% that I dropped a few spots there. I finally just picked back up Dalembert and dropped Jammer Nelson who was shooting like 35% and was averaging 3 assists a game. He was hitting some 3s but not worth it, especially since Serge Ibaka is suddenly hitting a bunch of 3s. He may be the best stretch four in the league when you consider players playing both ways. Not as good offensively as Dirk or Love, but far better defensively. Bosh I guess would be top 5 too and probably Millsap.

In Premier Tastic is winning with 80 pts, followed by I think Calvin Klein, but I'm not sure (team name starts with CK though). Not sure who is 3rd or 6th, but Kerrsed is 4th and sunskerr is 5th, and I'm 7th. Coldbyfletch 8th, Gaspar 9th.

Last place is the team that took Durant, third to last is the one with Westbrook, and second to last is Nevetsov.

Kobe Bryant is killing it. I'm so happy he fell to me in the 4th round, and some reason he fell even further in the Premier League (must be because we are Suns fans). I felt like he was late 2nd, 3rd round value, surprised Z-Bo fell so much, he's a solid pickup for points, rebounds, and FG%.
Lance Stephenson was also a good pickup, I thought he would post Boris Diaw (Suns era) like numbers, and so far he has with the exception of terrible FG%.
Still hoping my FG% and FT% starts going up, it should as Brook Lopez comes back.
How's everyone feeling after the first week and a half?

How could anyone have known Horford/Ariza/Bogut would shoot sub 30%?? My players only played at par yesterday and it was amazing... Is it so much to ask for the average? These guys better return to their means.

Speaking of Ibaka, what do you want for him?

He's pretty much untradeable right now. How often do you find a guy that blocks shots, hits 3s, gets boards, and has great fg and ft %s? I mean he doesn't really have a weakness. I think he will thrive even more when the other guys come back.

Does anyone want to trade a PG?
