Had Turner, Porter, Niko, and Prince (dropped) out until recently too. Its a Miracle i am still in striking distance!
With the potential 4 weels for AD and 2 critical matchups in the next 3 i am contemplating trading him to a leader. Effectively hand away 1st to lock down 2nd.
Would you go something like AD for Gobert + Jrue H? Key strengths are Reb, Block, TO. Pretty strong in %'s stls and Pts too.
I'd wait for an official timetable to be released first, but if you go that route, Jrue and Rudy are an ambitious goal and I'd be very happy if I could swing it given the circumstances.
Chef do you think Elfrid Payton is better or worse when AD is not on the floor?
Sure the usage goes up but I don't see him gathering assists as easily.
I'm kinda stuck with him in a position where I need assists and FG%, but the shooting hasn't been there and if the assists are not there either then I'd try and trade him for a top-100 player that can help me in FG%. I'm leading the league in steals so his production there is a moot point.
Your thoughts please, good sir
Not a lot long track record there since he missed most of the season.
At No. 163 in 9-cat on the season, you can certainly do better, so would be fantastic if you landed a top-100 guy for him.
In 8-cat he is at 117 with only 16 games played on the season, several of which have been hampered due to injury. I don't think I'll have many problems finding top-100 in 8-cat as many teams in my league are falling behind in assists and steals.
Because I'm in an 8-cat roto league I think he has more value to me than other leagues, but I'm just concerned what his value will be like over the next few weeks
Hard to say TC, but I agree with your basic premise- it will be harder for him to get value (assists) when the primary offensive fulcrum- Davis- is out.
Could wait a game or two to see if you can afford it.
Do we Automatically drop our end of the bench guy for tyreke now? My team is deep but almost nobody's worst player has top 50 upside if given the minutes... which now may be available? Or am I overreacting to the situation?
Top-60-70 seems more like it and, no, not automatic because he isn't guarantees to hit it.
Plus it depends who you want to drop and stats needed in H2H.

by looking at his multi-year returns he can get you points, assists and(last year) 3s. He usually hurts your efficiency cats.
So depends what you need and how good the player you want to drop is (solid top-100 guy like Danny Green or a 120-150 fringe guy?).
IF ad misses a month or more, wht do you think would okafor's ROS value would be in an 8cat h2h?
Also, would you trade Al Horford to get Jarrett Allen? (8cat 14team h2h)
Jah and I went to the same highschool so I hope he does well, I think no better than top-80... a couple things I'm considering. 1- this is the most regular run he;s gotten in forever so he;s riding off an emotional high that won't last forever. 2- Unless the Pels already started a tank job, he's only playable vs. classic big men (Gasol and Drummond). He plays OKS (Adams) next and should do okay but after that, it's San Antonio and Houston and I think he;ll get PnRed off the court. We'll have a better idea with a deeper sample size.
Horford much better in 8-cat but I can see it if you're targeting boards and blocks in H2H. Don't forget about the schedule- standard Yahoo has a 2-game week from Brooklyn in the semifinals. If you get Allen you better have other guys to grab boards and get blocks because 2 games ain't going to cut it.
thanks man. would you rather get thaddeus young for al horford instead?
Hmm, never considered that. Would be a lil ballsy but I can see it working since over the last few months they've been around the same value and h2h sched the same: 3-4-3.
I would also assume you're doing it for the Steals (just about the only reason I can think of to do it).
