Xmas holiday weekend upcoming - surely someone wants to get that leg up on their leagues when everyone else isn't paying attention!
I'm asking the first question:
How do you handle debilitating injuries to your fantasy team?
Personally, I'm dealing with a team that has EIGHT injured guys right now, and my move is to just basically ignore the team for a week because if I were to check in, I'd do something shortsighted and stupid.
I've got Gobert in a 16 man keeper league. Are there any good big men I can realistically target in a trade for him? The guy who has Capela rejected my offers.
I might just have to stick it out but it's been a rough ride this season. I dominated with big men last year but I'm getting killed now. KAT, Holmes, Dieng, and Skal as my other bigs. Needless to say most of them are underperforming.
Here's my current roster if that helps.
Spencer Dinwiddie Bkn - PG
Elfrid Payton Orl - PG
De'Aaron Fox Sac - PG
Isaiah Canaan Pho - PG
Tyler Ulis Pho - PG
Bogdan Bogdanovic Sac - SG
Josh Richardson Mia - PG,SG,SF
Khris Middleton Mil - SG,SF
Trevor Ariza Hou - SG,SF
Wesley Johnson LAC - SG,SF
Ersan Ilyasova Atl - SF,PF
Gorgui Dieng Min - PF,C
Skal Labissiere Sac - PF,C
Karl-Anthony Towns Min - C
Richaun Holmes Phi - PF,C
Isaiah Thomas Cle - PG [IL]
Seth Curry Dal - PG,SG [IL]
Rudy Gobert Uta - C [IL]
Lucas Nogueira Tor - PF,C [IL]
Alan Williams Pho - PF,C [IL]
Jonathan Simmons or Jordan Clarkson (9-Cat)?
Getting ready to go in 20...
That is probably the best strategy, I am employing a similar tactic on a team with 5 injuries. Especially if the injuries are mostly of the short term variety.
Aaron Gordon, Kevin Love and Tobias are decent targets.
Almost equal. If you need the bigger boost in offense Clarkson, if defense Simmons.
We are underway, keep em coming folks...
Do we have any hope Jymychal is going to turn it around?
Who are your favorite buy low targets right now poised to erupt in the second half?
I dropped him in a few places, how deep is your league? Who else is on the wire?
Myles Turner, Rudy Gobert & John Wall
