I'd guess all the trade deadlines have put a bit of heat on Yahoo. Bit annoying, but should be fixed soon.

Stat lines from my team tonight:

DJ Augustin - 32 points, 3 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals, 6 three-pointers, 60% (9/15) from the field, 100% (8/8) from the line

Jonathan Simmons - 35 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists, 7 three-pointers, 50% (11/22) from the field, 85.7% (6/7) from the line

Eric Bledsoe - 20 points, 2 rebounds, 8 assists, 4 steals, 1 block, 3 three-pointers, 50% (8/16) from the field, 50% (1/2) from the line

And waiting on Durant to finish his game but so far 10 points, 1 rebound, 1 assist, 1 steal, 1 three-pointer, 66% (4/6) from the field, 100% (1/1) from the line.

My team finally looks like a competent squad! :lol:
SHAZAM!

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

I was trying to avoid being relegated down to the D-League being in the bottom 3 for most of the year. After the all-star break, all my players just started going off, and now currently in 4th in Premier League.
Also 2nd in Dynasty, in which my strategy during the initial draft was to have a dominant team in 3-4 years. Didn't think my squad would be this good this early. A little sad I have to drop 5 players this summer as I enjoy most of the players on my squad.

I hadn't looked at the standings in a couple of weeks but thought I was like 9th in both leagues. Last night I checked and I had moved way up in Dynasty, just in time for the draft I guess. Must have a bunch of tankers playing scrubs or something.

I also noticed in Premier that there was like 1.5 games separating the 5-9 spots (and I think 4 of those teams were only separated by 1 game).

Thanks... but I had arguably the #1 player in fantasy this season drafted at pick 7. Got lucky on some wire pickups tho. :rock:

I could have won dynasty...1 point short and I was tied in FG% with Ulquiorra and .001 behind The Foxy Ones. Easily could have stolen that...

Finished tied for 4th in the G-League with Win for Lin, but Terovibe blew everyone out.

Either way, not bad finishing 2nd and 4th for a rookie :D

By the end of the G-League year, the only players I had left who I drafted were Paul George, DeAndre Jordan, Joe Ingles, Dennis Smith Jr and Lonzo Ball. Lol. Patty Mills too, but I dropped him early in the season and picked him back up recently.

Have some tough decisions for Dynasty with my 7 keepers. Locks are Damian Lillard, Nikola Jokic, Goran Dragic, Jeff Teague. Most likely Tobias Harris and Harrison Barnes, too. Then my last spot will go to Buddy Hield, Serge Ibaka, or WCS.

You also played 50 more games than i did! :lol:

I got hit with the injury bug as well as having a few tanks roll over guys in the last few months.

CP3 only played 58 games.

Guys like Brook Lopez and Ryan Anderson had their minutes drastically cut.

I actually forget who i started out with, but i was lacking so bad i had to pick up guys like JJ Berrara and Tyreke Evans so i could at least have some kind of stats coming in. And of course both ended up being benched for weeks on end.

I snagged Pat Bev even though he was going to be out all season because my roster is so littered with little to no talent guys i might be keeping him on next year and am hoping he can thrive in LA. So there was one guy with ZERO games played on my team, just taking up a roster space.

I held off on dumping Thon hoping he would break out, but just like all 35 year old sophomores, he didnt, so he logged zero games for me.

Going to be hard to come up with who i should keep, and not in a good way.

Lebron/CP3/D12/Aldridge/Murray are all shoe-ins, but i have Lopez/Kanter/Beverley/Evans/Anderson all in the maybe pile.

Congrats man. Your strategy of picking Bron and CP3 at the turn in the original draft was a good one.

Question about offseason trades - Could I trade 2 players for 1 coming back? If so take a look at my roster and we might be able to work a deal. I have a bunch of guys who could potentially be keeper worthy and would be willing to do package for someone like Murray.
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming Wow! What a Ride!-H.S.T.

I think trade might have to wait till after the Fantasy draft, and honestly there really isnt much on your roster that would interest me for Murray. He finished as the 37th player in Fantasy, And besides Davis and Kemba (Who all raked way higher) the only comparable person is Embiid. The rest of your guys that are even in the top 100 are all around #90 (Ariza/Kuzma/Crabbe), and even 2 of them wouldnt be enough for me to move on from Murray. Sorry!

I can't believe I finished in 3rd. And right behind Kerrsed in 3 ptrs with a few of my 3 pt shooters out the last week. If I would have caught you there you would have tied Golanator and both beat me by 1. But of course you did play so many fewer games. Pretty crazy you won a 16 team league playing the third fewest games in the league.

Though I guess it helps that LeBron played in every game with MVP caliber stats and you took Dwight Howard in the first round last year while everyone else mostly took rookies.
