Keeper League Trade Varejao & Al Jeff 

Post#1 » by Yilun » Wed Dec 5, 2012 5:34 pm

14-Team Keeper League (standard 9-cat H2H)
My team:
Mo Williams
JJ Redick
Jamal Crawford
Kevin Durant
Carmelo Anthony
Chris Bosh
Anderson Varejao
Brook Lopez
Ryan Anderson
Chris Kaman
Lou Williams
Andray Blatche
Chauncey Billups

My FT% and treys are super solid along with my FG%, points and rebounds. I'm currently first in the league after 5 weeks. I'm thinking about offering my Varejao + Mo Williams for Al Jefferson + Larry Sanders. I'm banking on the fact that Varejao cannot keep up this torrid pace for the rest of the season and planning on selling him high. Getting 2 bigs in return will really lock in my FG% as well as boost my rebounds and blocks. Meanwhile, I'm overkilling in treys and points so I think those should remain intact.

What do you guys think about this move to balance out my team better?

My keepers going forward will probably be Durant, Melo, Bosh, and Al Jeff going forward.

Deep league so practically nobody viable on waivers. This trade is moreso banking on the fact that Varejao is not going to sustain these numbers for the rest of the season, coupled with his injury proned history. Obviously, if Andy plays 80 games this season averaging 15/15 I'd be a dummy to trade him but do you really think he is capable of that?

Well you have Kaman and Lopez on your team do I find it funny that u single out Varejo.

And trading moe means you wouldn't have any real pg on your team

I think u can do much better for Varejo

Ya I like it a lot since its a keeper. Odds of Andy keeping this up long-term and staying in a situation as sweet as his current one aren't good. Plus its not like Al Jeff has been a bum this year. His numbers are slightly down and is still coming in at top 20 value.

Andy is capable of this kind of season. But Al Jefferson is obv much safer.
