Karl-Anthony Towns trade and bet 

Post#1 » by Chef Seb » Thu Feb 25, 2016 2:26 pm

2 very simple questions.

1. Would you trade Karl-Anthony Towns for Porzingis/Randle in fantasy (Basically if you combine Porzingis/Randle stats you get Towns anyway haha)

2. On that note, Towns is at $1.07 to win ROY. Isn't he already guaranteed to win the award? I know it's terrible odds, but if you put $10,000 on that, you already earn $700 of profit GUARANTEED. Who says no? Porzingis isn't going to win ROY and he's the closest to Towns probably (definitely not going to be Okafor, D'Angelo, Jokic, etc).

Don't you find it stupid that he's at $1.07 and not $1.01 ? I would put my house, car, limbs, scrotum, everything at $1.07.

Seriously bet $100,000 you get a $7,000 profit GUARANTEED!!! Towns is going to be ROY 100% even if he brakes every single bone in his body tomorrow (touch wood he doesn't).

Apologies for going over the top, but you get my point :lol:

first one is bad logic, you'll have to add a player from fa when you trade for 1 less player. so your base analysis would be towns+fa vs. porzingis+randle.

I would keep KAT, he is already a top 10 fantasy player, as Arda K said, you need to take into account the roster spots in a 2 for 1. If you are taking in 2 guys you have to REMOVE one guy from your roster. And the person taking Towns has to pick up a FA.
