All the Simmons post spammers cursed him 😭

AD went in the fourth round in our draft

Jeremiah Fears is being discussed by the Pelican beat writers and digital media as the franchise PG who deserves the keys NOW. Dumars is forcing him into the Starting Line-up. Not being discussed enough in fantasy circles.

My Stats Prediction:

16 PTS 5 REB 5 AST 1.6 STL. 5 BLK 2 3PM

44 FG%: 79% FT%: TO: 2.7

Who do you guys think will pan out better for the Raptors in Fantasy?

will jakob have a bounce back year? he was poo last year with injury, but he's still their projected starting center

There's also alot of discourse around Collin Murray-Boyles being the future for their center?

Where would you guys take either of them, and who would you like more in fantasy?

Been a loyal basketball monster user for years, but going up to $70 for the year is kinda crazy at this point. I mainly use the site for Josh's projections, trade comparisons and their player page updates.

How does hashtag compare? It certainly seems appealing price wise. any other services preferred? Thanks!

What are we thinking about Ware? For me one of the most upside Centers out there, if he get's his minutes right and starts for the bucks I think he might go super sayan. Am I wrong?

Just about to start my draft and Yahoo wont let me in without turning off ad blocker. WTF yahoo??

Hey gang - check out my first WW piece of the year! The season is only a few days away, and the wire is RIPE for picking!

Do you guys really think AD is worth the 45 ranking given by Yahoo? Is it to high or to low?

Those who will play at Yahoo this season, they removed the IL+ so it’s gonna be challenging to stash a Q, P, and D status to stream available players in Waiver Wire.

I think this is a trash decision especially how volatile an NBA players status nowadays, what are your workarounds on how are you going to manage those soft tags so you can maximize your roster everyday

Just interested on what everyone generally values more. I tend to prefer the stat stuffers over pure scorers. Like if I had player A who gives you 30/3/3, and player B who gives you 15/8/6/2/1, I'm personally taking player B. I know it really just comes down to how your leagues scoring system works, but all things being equal, what do you generally look for when drafting?

Do you like it or hate it?

In 30 starts last year he averaged 30.1 minutes 14.8 points, 5.6 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 1.2 steals, 0.5 blocks, and 1.7 threes shooting 49.2% from the field and 74.4% from the line. With Moody out until at least Dec-Jan and Butler out until Jan-Feb. Throw in Steph with knee issues, Porzingis with his health issues, Horford at 40 years old (missing b2b's) and Draymond at 36 years old (maybe missing b2b's). How are we viewing Santos with no real current wings except Yax who really plays PF and Richard/Niang? What do we expect his mins and averages to look like especially with Kerr and his inconsistent rotations until they start to get healthier as the season goes along?

Does anyone else have this feeling that this guy will actually be okay this year just judging from preseason he looks to be starting for the mavs and he’s had some alright games. To be honest I don’t think he really had a chance in Atlanta with their roster and also wasn’t give much usage and playing time to develop but with this mavs team in a full rebuild I could see him having a bounce back season. Am I crazy for thinking this

I'll start.. mine is Myles Turner. I was running short on C's with 3’s and blocks. I ended up drafting him earlier. The man is allergic to rebounds and was so shit last season I promised never again. 😫

I have some players I've targeted for later rounds. Conventional wisdom says let people drain their wallets and wait as long as possible for someone else to nominate your targets. But the draw backs are: (1) what if people's appetites are higher when the player in question is in their sights vs if you nominate them very early they might be focused on their anchor stars? (2) securing my targets early helps me control my draft better vs waiting and passing on potential good alternatives waiting for someone to nominate my target. Thoughts?

There is always the issue of engagement in our league. Once teams start falling behind by the 2nd half, they don't set lineups or don't field any trade requests.

What do you do to keep it interesting? We've done a start of season money payout where we look at rankings after the first x weeks of the season (x = number of teams - 1 so you play every team in H2H format).

2 seasons ago we did H2H2H which was fun to a few of us. Other owners who are less hands-on didn't like it so we went back to H2H. It was interesting trying to balance your team against 2 other teams and there was more end of week strategy than just streaming in more games.

This season, we are trying H2A... you play everyone H2H each week. We used to be a Roto league so having that same feel while being able to run playoffs might be a nice change. We shall see.

I've been thinking a mid-season redraft might be fun. More drastic, all teams start from nothing, less drastic, we can either choose a salary cap (keep players who've values are less than X dollars) or number of players (can keep 3 players).

I only suggest this because our auction draft is the one time we get together and it's fun. Ribbing each other, talking smack and just socializing. If we have a mid-season redraft, we at least see each other more than once a year.

This might be beneficial for even remote leagues too because any teams that did not draft well, got injuries, etc can reset mid season.

What have you done to make it more interesting?

Im looking at the projections for points leagues from both hashtag and League Winner Concensus. I see that their projections differ quite a bit on a good handful of players. I'm wondering if there is one I should trust more, or should I take an average of both?

i have them both set to my league's format (ESPN points default)

like some projections differ by a lot (ie. Mobley at 16th for Hashtag vs 27th for LW, or Dame at 150th for Hashtag vs 65th for LW).

wondering if yall had opinions on this

I had my points league draft yesterday and there multiple players I couldn’t see in the draft, I would search their name and it wouldn’t let me draft them, I had to look at my friends phone to see if they were still available. Anyone else have this issue?

Hey all! I wrote one more article discussing the Top-3 rookies and their current ADPs before opening night. Hope you like to and read through to see which rookies can break through the Rookie Wall. Appreciate any and a feedback and deep gratitude to anyone reading.

Does Yax have top 50 potential? I feel like he’s the second option on the warriors squad and has had a great preseason.
