How well did I draft my team?
Thanks!
One of the best teams I've seen so far. Your top three picks are insanely good in my opinion. You got Gary Harris, Elfrid Payton,James Johnson and Josh Richardson all at really good spots. I'm not really into Rodney Hood but apart from that couldn't have asked for much better. 9.5/10
Okay, here's my 10-team theory.
IMMEDIATELY try to trade a 2-for-1. Like, basically, any 2-for-1 will do.
4th and 5th rounders for a 2nd rounder. Just try anything you can to get some more 1st and 2nd round picks.
I say this because everyone is going to have pretty deep teams in a 10-team format, so the waiver wire will also be thick with goodies. If you can turn some middle assets into stars, you can plug holes with pretty good FAs and dominate the league.
Yes, the fact is no one will ever go for a 2-for-1
Thanks for the tips and the analysis! and I do have to agree with Avery, very difficult to do when people know what they are doing, but we shall still keep trying lol
Agreed with Besbris. Solid strategy if you can get it done. Wait a few weeks and check on those bottom 3 teams who will be possibly looking to make a move.
Pulling off a 2-for-1 is an art. You don't offer 2 stinkers and ask for 1 gem.
You offer 2 really, really good players, and you ask for one player that's just a bit better than the other guys.
I did this last year trading Jokic and Butler for AD. Seems insane, right? But it helped my team because I could plug the open roster slot with a really good dude I had sitting on my bench. Hence, a net gain. That's the only way it works.
Nice analysis Dan! Last year one of my teammates traded away LMA and Kemba for Dame. Another successful example!
Getting Steph and Turner would make me feel real good about my first 2 rounds. Besides Embiid, who I'm not drafting unless he drops to 45 (which will never happen haha), I love your team. Great draftin'!
