I wish we had picked up any one of the myriad of good PF/Cs in the draft, like Goga, instead of a another SF...
That said, Fox is available in Dynasty for an equivalent value young player. SGA is doing quite well I must say...

Man, picking Draymond with my 2/3 pick (had two next to each other) is going to hurt me real bad in premier. I was looking real good but now am dropping. I picked up Dwight Howard since I need blocks and am killing in FT% but man, he is very inconsistent.

I'll give you Fultz for him. He hit a 3 tonight.
Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

Dynasty:
Looking for a big/wing who rebounds. Willing to trade if that big/wing is a star player as well.

Who are you looking to trade? I like Trae and Ingram for your team. I'd consider Al Horford for Aaron Gordon, though that's tough. Horford is a stat stuffer, currently ranked 36 while Gordon is ranked 105.

Trae is the only guy I consider truly untouchable.
In the case that the guy im getting back is a star with some youth, I’d be willing to part with up to 3 players. Ingram would probably be a part of that.
I value older players less than their current ranking.

I hate my team in dynasty, it’s literally Lillard/Jokic/Hield and a bunch of crap.
I’m in 1st place but I’ve played a bunch of games. I want to contend but I also want to diversify my roster a bit while at the same time not dealing Jokic for nothing. I’ve gotten a couple solid offers for Nikola but nothing that made me immediately say yes though I was close a couple times.
Just kinda stuck...

Can I make a suggestion, you don't deal Jokic unless you're getting an absolute stud(s) back. He's so young and such a roto beast, it's just taking him time to get into game shape.
I'd deal Hield long before I think about moving the other two...You'd get a couple of nice pieces for him for sure.
Next dynasty piece up on The Athletic!
Western conference deep dive...

Re: 2019 Fantasy Basketball Thread - Your fantasy surprises and disappointments so far
Well damn. I figured this year in Dynasty i would trade off my all-stars for younger pieces and tank the season out, But all-stars gonna all-star. CP3 ranked #35 on the season so far, Alderidge coming in at #20, and Lebron still top 10. They just wont let me fail, lmao. Pretty crazy to be #5 in the standings despite 1/3rd of my roster ranking in at #200+ for the season (Kanter/Powell/Ross/Gay/McGee).

I appreciate that Yahoo tells me how trash my team is by notifying me that thousands of people have been dropping players on my roster.

My biggest mistake in premier. Dropping Marcus Morris and someone scooped him up. He's on fire which I can't find an adequate replacement. Between that and the Draymond injury, it's killing me, and frankly, it's embarrassing to be behind Kerrsed.

Dame killed it with 60 last night and is now the #1 ranked player in fantasy on the year.
Harrison Barnes has been a really nice surprise so far, checking in at #56.
I picked up Frank Ntilikina in dynasty, he’s been very good the last 2 games and hopefully he gets 30+ mpg going forward because he could be a keeper type for me if he does.

Re: 2019 Fantasy Basketball Thread - Your fantasy surprises and disappointments so far
You shouldn't be embarrassed, I had a great draft. Despite my 3rd round pick not playing a single game yet (Griffin), and my 5th round pick only playing in like 3 games (Favors), somehow I ended up with 5 players that are currently ranked in the top 20, with my man Dame Dash being #1.bwgood77 wrote:My biggest mistake in premier.

I'm just kidding. It is weird you are somewhat near the top every year, even when I think you have weird drafts.

Well that dynasty trade came out of nowhere. Wish I knew Allen and Collins were available.

All of Premier League team has been stinkers. Fox has been trash, I thought Otto Porter would have a great year but he's been bad (though he's been hurt). I'm hoping Kanter comes back and just gobbles up all the rebounds because I'm dying in that category.
Also didn't realize how much Giannis is struggling to shoot FT's this year. In fact my entire Dynasty team is struggling to shoot FT's.

Put a dude on IL in dynasty and holy crap is the FA crop a depressing group. Seems like the worst it's ever been.
