Hey Dan. Would you drop Trill to take a punt on Okafor? I know Trill has the better 9-cat stat set but he does play for your most hated fantasy NBA team. And on the flip side, the Nets are actually a pretty good dream for fantasy value. Cheers
@ameen - yeah, by just a small bit. It might be a fair move but unless you have someone bodacious to slot in, that'll hurt ya.
@huy - Sigh. I'm gonna say no because I'm a pragmatic man, but also, Okafor might be more exciting to own and if he puts up a few 20-10 games you might be able to trade him to someone who overlooks his FT stuff
Hey Dan,
Down points and rebs would you trade Kat and Dipo for ABC and Love?
Also who would you recommend a drop for Mirotic? WCS, Ball, DLo, nance jr, James Johnson or RHJ? These names to me are all must ones, but are anything these guys less of a must own than mirotic? Thanks.
Hey Dan.
Can you please remember to award the Wet Fart of the Night on your daily podcast please? I can't remember it being awarded for a while now. I wonder if maybe as you go through your box score recap for the previous night and you come across a stinker then you nominate him as a contender for WFotN, and then at the end of all the recaps (but before you assign homework) you can then hand out the award from those contenders. Please let the WFotN on Monday go to your boy Niko (yes I know it's his first game back and he only got 15 mins but it'd still be funny).
And then maybe on Friday as part of the lightning round with Bru you can let him award the WFotW (from the winners of Mon-Thu). Just a thought.
Cheers
@auron - Yeah, gimme the Giannis side. KAT is notably better in 2nd halves, but there just isn't enough pizza in Minnseota for everyone to get what they got last year. Honestly, you'll be fine either way, though. Oladipo has been so good that this trade is basically fair.
@huy - Haha, yeah, I get distracted by other thoughts and forget to give out awards, sometimes. Seems Twitter really wants me to talk more betting angles, too. I need to start writing stuff down on a legal pad.
Hey Dan,
I am punting FG and TO. Should I trade my Schroder and Ariza for John Wall? I have plentiful assists, but I can use john wall as a trade piece for someone else. This will also cut down the number of players I have on the same team as well. I always come back to the dilemma of whats the better value and whats best for my team.
My Team below:
Chris Paul
Lillard
Schroder
Teodosic
Ariza
Ingles
Barnes
Prince
JRich
Nance
Cousins
Olynyk
Okafor
IL:
THJ
Dedmon
Thanks!
@papervase - You should make that trade regardless of your build. Schroder isn't very good at fantasy, at least compared to where other sites had him pre-ranked this year. And Ariza is solid and safe, but he's no Wall.
Have the option to get Mirotic and Teodosic from the free agency. I believe I should add them, but I am uncertain about who to drop. Options : Kuzma, Jaylen Brown, Burks, JaMychel Green, Nurkic. Any thoughts Dan?
Hey Dan. I know you say BroLo is a buy-low guy but do you really see him getting more than 24mpg? Luke Walton doesn't seem to want to play him down the stretch. Would you give up your boy Niko for him? Cheers.
PS. You promised a Wet Fart on today's show and we didn't get one. Just saying.
Hi Dan,
Would you drop WCS for either Bazemore or lamb?
Thanks
Dan,
So, your boy Niko has the bulls 3-0 when he plays. Celtics down, Gobert and the Jazz up next.
Betting angle question:
Based on pure stats, the Bulls to win the championship at 501:1 looks like money for jam. Worth a dabble? ?
Fantasy Q:
Can you rank Marvin Williams, Kelly O and Brolo for 9cat?
@brenno - Drop Brown and Burks for those 2 FAs
@huy - Yeah, I get caught up in my other thoughts. Wet Fart award is sorta down on the priority list, especially now that I'm giving out bets (which, by the way, are CRUSHING so far). No, I would not give up Mirotic for Brook. I think Lopez may need a trade. He hasn't played more than 2 mins in the 4th quarter in about 10 games, and that's upsetting. He may be stuck as a top-100 type until that remedies itself.
@jb - You know my stance on the Kings. I want nothing to do with any of them. WCS is probably the better play, but I hate the inconsistencies on that team ... so yes, I would.
@keiran - Betting angle - hahaha, no. Fantasy: Marvin is probably the top of the heap now, with all the injuries in Charlotte, then Brook, then Kelly.
Hey Dan,
I'm in desperate need of points/rebounds/blocks and someone just dropped dwight howard in my 8cat league (12 team).
My bench right now consists of Rodney Hood, Dario Saric, James Johnson, and Joe Ingles (one of them start)..I'm leaning dropping JJ for Howard.
Thoughts?
Hey Dan. Firstly, thanks for the WFotN and the shout out on the podcast today! I had a good chuckle. Secondly, would you give up Mirotic for Taurean? Cheers
