@ameen - yes

@joseph - yes

@timothy - no, Otto is ranked much, much higher. Though I'm talking 9-cat. They're almost in a dead heat in 8-cat.

@ahgohgo - It depends if you can stomach Whiteside's absence. If you're down in the lower half of your league, not sure you should be giving up healthy guys for hurt ones.

Myles Turner owner. Would you trade him straight up for C. Paul? I am first in blocks. I do need boards but can try to supplement from others. Thanks.

Yes. Cp3 looks prime to be as solid as ever.

Hey Dan,

I asked you on twitter before but wanted to go into more detail. DAR hits waiver, I'm 2nd priority and I was wondering if I should burn a waiver dropping Dieng for DAR. 11 man 9 cat roto. I'm low in points and reb, but I think I can get by with my squad with rebs. Have a lot of guards and forwards that can chip in with rebs. Still should drop dieng for DAR with waiver?
Thanks!

Loving the thread Dan!

Thinking about dropping Randle for Dieng. Dieng simply has to come good eventually, but at the same time I can see Randle getting shipped off to a new team and going nuts. Thoughts?

@auron - Yeah, I do. There aren't many top-60/70 guys that hit the wire, and Russell can get there.

@aaron - Hah, yeah, it seems to be a popular thread! I'm going to buck the Hoop Ball dogma and say stick with Randle. Dieng is stuck at 15-20mins even while Bjelica is out. He's been useful lately, sort of, but unless Taj or KAT gets hurt, Gorgui is going to be a backup. Randle, at least, can get hot and Luke leaves him in there.

@jb93 - Tell that dude he's gonna have to do better. Brook is a top-70/80 type guy this year, and that's just how it is. Ingles is a top-60/70 guy. That being said, if you need blocks and can sacrifice 3's and steals, I guess sometimes taking the slightly worse player isn't the worst thing in the world. Personally, I would politely decline.

Hey Dan.

Should I trade CP3 and Otto for Jokic? Head to head league.

Also what is mike Conley’s outlook when he returns. He is on my free agent list. Should I pick him up now and sacrifice a few wins until he is back?

Thanks.

@timothy - You should not. Cp3 might end the year with higher per-game numbers than Jokic, and Otto is firmly entrenched as a top-20 guy (moreso when Wall can help get him open looks).

Conley is definitely worth a grab. His ceiling is top-25 as we saw last year, though I highly doubt he gets back there. Still, even if he's ONLY a top-50/60 guy, he's still an amazing guy to pick up off the wire.

Is it too much to send cp3+gobert to get durant?
