Coach, Dan... would love your help. I know my team is good (we've discussed this before) but I really wanna shore up cats. Here is my team again vs. my opponent (my brother).
My Team
Guards Steph, Conley, Sato, White (SA)
Wings J-Rich, Mitchell, Grant (OKC)
Bigs Allen, Love, AD, Jokic, Isaac, Mitch Rob
IR JJJ
His
Guards Elfrid, Kyrie, Rubio, Westbrook, Brunson
Wings Middleton, THJ
Bigs Tobias, Siakam, Horford, RoLo, Thad, Millsap
IL RoCo
Over the season we're close in FG%, PTs, REBs, ASTs, TOs and feel I'll take FG%, FT%, STLs, BLKs. I know this will be a mouthful so apologies. Here are some gus that are top 100 that are on the wire this week; gonna drop Isaac and Allen.
Wire (4+ games)
Smart. Ibaka. Mikal. Dedmon. Beverley. Morris (BOS). Monte. Bryant (WAS). Olynyk. House. Looney. Iggy. Poeltl. Osman. Ellington. Dotson. Kleber. Galloway. Winslow. Ish. Giles.
Thanks in advance guys!
Dude, first rule, you can't lose to your brother!
Taking everything into consideration that you mentioned and looking at usage and cats, I recommend grabbing Dotson & Osman.
Good luck!
I guess the question is ... are you trying to win all the categories you think are going to be close, or would you prefer to hammer just a couple? Like, Beverley has been great with rebs/assists lately, but Clips schedule isn't great. Marcus Morris in Boston could be very helpful in points, esp with Hayward out. Olynyk might hit on a few of those categories.
I think I'd lean Kelly since Heat have a nice 4 gamer with Sunday open for a late-week swap. Dotson would help a lot in points for sure.
I'd definitely prefer to prefer to just secure 1-2 more, not all. Missed out on Dotson, sadly, as I forgot to drop Allen/Isaac before their games started and it wouldn't allow me to swap them.... LAME!
IT'S THE FINAL COUNTDOOOOOOOOOWN!!! So I'm looking for help these last two days, as I’m losing 3-6 (to my YOUNGER brother, Coach)! Here’s how the cats stack so far (my stat listed first)...
FG% 460 v 505... FT% 811 v 830... 3s 70 v 63... PTS 532 v 629... REB 203 v 225... AST 126 v 146... STL 32 v 42... BLK 26 v 16... TO 52 v 80
I’ve got one move left to make (he has none) and would LOVE it to be a move that helped next week, but I’ve gotta focus on the here and now. My only chance seems to be in finding someone with high usage & percentage, with some potential defensive stats (stuff n things).
My Team
Steph, Conley, Sato, White, J-Rich, Mitchell, Grant (OKC), Galloway, Love, AD, Jokic, Mitch Rob, House
His Team
Kyrie, Rubio, Westbrook, Rubio, Middleton, Ellington, Prince, Iggy, Tobias, Siakam, Horford, Thad, Millsap
Here are some waiver guys who fit the bill...
RoLo, Shaq Harrison, Felicio, Justin Jackson, Kleber, Biyombo, Kaminsky, Maker, Bjelica, Bogdanovic (SAC)
Do I just sit anyone? Do I sit J-Rich tonight as his usage has been sky high but terrible percentages the past couple weeks? Do I drop House who still has a game this week but hasn't been good since that 3 game stretch, or Grant who doesn't play again this weekend?
There will be no losing to baby brother on my watch! I have a younger brother and the "very" few times I have lost to him it stings really badly!!
Let's find a way! I looked over everything and here is my recommendation to consider:
Drop: House
Add: Bogdanovic (He plays LAL & Pho this weekend, they both are horrible defensively)
Good luck!
You’d drop House over Grant even though House still has a game. I know House has stunk but does he not have any upside for his game tomorrow when Grant doesn’t play til Monday? I could drop Grant and pick him up again. Thoughts?
Didn’t see Bjelica on the wire. Do you like him or Bogdan more?
Yes, I would drop House over Grant. I like both Bogdan and Bjelica. Close call, either should help.
Good luck!
