I believe I drafted Isaacs but dropped him because of how underwhelming his rookie season was. I've currently got 6 guys in the top 35 with Drummond (3rd), Giannis (5th), Booker (10th), Lavine (19th), Whiteside (30th), Kennard (34th). Don't think Whiteside or Kennard is sustainable but hopefully Kennard stays somewhat consistent as I need him to replace my older veterans that I chose to keep in Redick, Ingles, and even Batum.

Would be nice if Giannis shot better than 63% at the FT line (with 12 attempts per game). Last year he shot 73%.


I always thought Kennard might break out. I don't think he will fall back a lot and is probably a good player to have long term.

Never saw it coming. I took him off the waiver wire after his breakout season opener of 30 points thinking I'll end up dropping him a few games later. I almost did actually after his 3 point dud vs the Raptors but gave him a second chance.

You took Booker like right before me too. I really wanted him and you stole him from me :evil:

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

Wow I got lucky with Jaylen Brown. Dude's a star in the making, standing out amongst Kemba and Tatum with his new ball handling skills and smart shot selection. When Hayward returns Jaylen will probably take a hit, but he's revealed his true potential and that's enough for me to be patient.

Can't believe I dropped from having a commanding lead in Premier to 5th place after all these injuries. And the Curry injury killed Draymond Green's #s...now Russell is out too. Green needs to become the Point Forward (which he's been) but hopefully people can knock down shots so he can at least get assists. I think it was

who said he thought Draymond would be a top 10 or 20 player this year and I think he would have been right if Curry was still playing.

At least with Lowry being one of my injuries, I have FVV and his stats have been solid, and he keeps Siakam going....if not for a great backup PG, it could have hurt Siakam too. And then Hayward missing hurts as good as he was playing.

Will be interesting to see what kind of rebound I can have when my players get healthy. The gap from top 5 to the next group is fairly significant.

I suspect he doesn't do much, but surely he's an upgrade from Anthony Tolliver and can give them 12-14pts 4-6reb and a heap of 3s with good FT%...

Yeah, we're a deep league, and I think Melo is motivated. Won't be All-Star Melo, but definitely a guy who can give some production.

Steve Adams and Nemanja Bjelica are available in Dynasty. I am looking to do a 2 for 1 trade or player for picks as I'm clearing space for an upcoming trade...

Well, I'm glad to be able to trade for a guy like D'Aaron Fox.

I think with all these minor injuries that are starting to add up to my roster, there was no chance of really competing, so I decided to give up on what was seeming like a 3rd place finish and look to build an even stronger group of guys for next year. Truth be told I didn't expect my team to perform at this sort of pace, as I was honestly planning on sucking this year.

Gonna miss Josh Richardson with his contributions in assists and steals the most. As for Gordon and Warren, I just had too many other guys like them on the team, so it made sense to move on.

kinda funny that both of the guys who redrafted this season are trading so early, and I think you are giving in way too early in the season. But the gamble is worthwhile, you are stacked in top tier talent.

Quick question to Desertfox: Why are you dropping 2 players if you are just taking one extra in? I know Steve Adams hasn't been doing much, but he has value.

EDIT: NVM, just noticed Fox is coming out of your INJ spot.

With PG13 back and injuries piling up on the other teams, I figure I have a shot at making a run. Steve Adams has been playing terrible and NAW was unfortunately a numbers casualty, wish I could have stashed him on the IL.

If anyone else in Dynasty thinks that they can make a run via trade, hit me up. I have 3 top 20 players on the season available on the trading block.

The teams at the top are just really good and although I had a lot (still do) of talent, I feel like I had hit my peak. I’m taking the L this year to field a better team down the road with Fox’s potential. His age is also more in line with my main guys like Trae young who has a different window than the top tier teams do.

Also looking for a PF.

Why don't you go for the win mate? You're right up there and only 1-2 pieces away from winning it again

I had to pick up Alec Burks in Premier due to injuries to Lowry, Hayward and Lamb and he's been solid. Glad Draymond had a good game too (at least with assists/rebounds). Hopefully this motivates Draymond to give somewhat of a crap...be the leader of these guys.
