Is it bad that we're not even a week in to the season and I'm already changing my personal goal in the premier league from winning to not getting sent back to the dleague lol

I like my dynasty team though.

I had Chris Paul last year in premier and he was out for a long time so I dropped near the bottom and had to try to just avoid relegation. But I ended up like 6th worst or something, so closer to middle of the pack.

Of course I have 3 players out in h2h also. In a week to week contest that blows. Two are starting point guards also.

Terovibe was minutes faster in picking up Mike James in the G League.

At least got him in Dynasty and H2H

Can't believe you came back to beat me in H2H. Was beating you 9-0, then 8-1, 7-2, 6-3, 5-4, then a final 4-5. And of course I crushed you in the cats I won and you edged me out in assists/rebounds...I was worried about assists after both Dennis Smith Jr AND Elfrid Payton were out on Saturday...a killer.

And did it without my 1st round pick Kawhi Leonard and 3 other injured players, too.

Yeah, I noticed Kawhi was out so figured that helped me quite a bit, though I think the cats you won are the same ones he would have helped.

Ha, same as me man.

Losing Hayward less than a quarter into the season killed me!

Gasol and Giannis crushing it though so there's hope. Will be a TON of waiver adds in Prem league for me...

Man, im getting killed!

In premier league My guards are KILLING me. Rondo out (So no assists) and yet Holiday hasnt stepped up at all (No assists and no 3 pointers).Pope was out the first few games and McCollum missed the 1st against us. And poor IT, just rusting away.

Its no better in Dynasty either, CP3 is my main Points/Steals/Assists man and he's only played a single game and expected to miss at least a month. Other guys that i thought would flourish in their new roles are vastly underplaying (Brook Lopez, im looking at you!).

Man in the permier league my top two guards are Paul and Bledsoe.... I'm getting murdered. It also hasn't helped that Trevor Ariza has been the worst player in the NBA the first week of the season.

Wow, that is brutal. Are you even able to put Bledsoe on IR?

I guess I should have dropped Wilson Chandler instead of DeMarre Carroll when picking up Dejounte Murray in Dynasty. Bad thing is I later dropped Chandler for Jerryd Bayless. Thinking I'd rather have Carroll than Bayless now by a long shot.

G-League team is currently tied for 14th place (out of 16). I'm dead last in FG% (thanks Lonzo, PG13 and Gallo) and bottom 3 in blocks, free throws and points. On the good side I'm 2nd in the league in steals. I need PG13 and Gallinari to step up, everyone else has been okay so far (DSJ missed a couple games due to injury but he's been good when on the court).

Dynasty league team is currently in 10th place (out of 16). I'm not in the bottom or top 5 of ANY category, which is pretty crazy. So I have a balanced team, just not good enough yet. On the plus side, 3 of my keepers in Lillard, Barnes and Hield have played like crap so far, so once they get going that should help me.

Patrick Beverley has been a superstar so far, putting up 14.7 points, 3 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 3.3 steals, 0.7 blocks, and 2.7 3's per game on 50% FG (also 50% FT, but he's only shooting 1.3/game so meh)

Since I made this post 3 days ago, I'm now up to 11th place in the G-League and 2nd place (!!!) in Dynasty.

Prem league I'm 12th!

Hayward hasn't been all my problems but just can't seem to get the right combination around Giannis...Early days though!

G-League currently 2nd. Had a few guys really help pick up the slack from Batum and Teodisc injuries. Barea was a great pickup, not sure how much longer his PT will last unfortunately. Green has been awesome for late I was able to grab him. Same with Fournier and Kaminsky. Cousins has been a monster. Ilyasova has been a bust so far. Really expected him to get a lot of opportunities in ATL with them having essentially noone but Schroder.

And on top of that I've been able to manage my games so far and I'm under pace on most positions.

In Dynasty team is doing a bit better than last year, but doubt that will last. My %'s are disgusting. But I've had a few standout players like Lauri and Capela.
