Still horrible? 

How come? 

 

I'm playing Roto btw. I'm sure you're a better player than I am, but can you give me an analytical breakdown as to why it's so horrible? It's why I'm asking you guys. Thank you.

Buy low on Jokic... I’m a Jokic owner and I want to get rid of him 

What players would you accept in a two for 1? In some honest examples.

Last year when he was struggling someone in my league managed to snag him for Simmons and Collins. Of course Jokic went ham immediately after and won that team the championship.

I got offered Jimmy Butler for Malcolm Brogdon and Dennis Schroder. I accepted it the trade, as I am selling high on those two and buying low on Jimmy. Is that a fair trade in your views? or is it a game changer in a 12team 10cat hth league?

It cannot get more fair than that. It is exactly what you said, buy low and sell high. I like your side of the deal better, but a lot of unknowns still so it is a fairest trade of all

How do owners feel about Chris Paul as a buy low? Consistent top 10 guy over the years but obviously the injury risk is there. Was offered CP for my Conley and seriously considering it.

Is it worthy of a trade reversal? if some don't think its fair? Our league rule is no trade reversals atm

[naidze 1]

Is it worth to offer Dipo and somebody else for Butler?

Every aging star is a top 10 player until they're not.  CP3 is a second round player this year on a per game basis but has only played 18 games.  He's 50th for season totals.  If you split the difference, maybe it's worth offering a top 30 player.  I would actually try that in roto, but it's a risk in H2H.  FWIW a few weeks ago I offered my Conley + Schroder for his Paul and he accepted.  Idk if I'd do it again, seems like a neutral move.

After that last game, as a Jokic owner I’m waiting to see if he can string some good games first as to not sell too low. I might even stand pat and see if he can deliver consistent top 8 value.

 

But last week, probably a top 15-20 and a top 40. Something like Gobert + Conley for Jokic + late rounder might’ve done the trick...

thanks, Threw out some offers there, gonna see if any bite.

Punting assists. Should I trade jrue for butler or oladipo? Would I be able to do a 1 for 1 or anyone think I'd have to add more? Who's better? What does ros look like for each player?

Indeed. One day in the future -- could be 2 months from now, could be 2 yrs -- the market sentiment will quickly shift.

 

That's when buy-lows become stay-aways.

That’s why what Lebron is doing at his age is incredible. I keep wondering when he will fall off - I would hate being the one who spent a a first round pick on him when it happens.

It'll look worse IRL than it does in fantasy.

As worst, he'll be an old Karl Malone with incredible passing and a viable 3point shot. I don't see Lebron ever averaging less than 24/7/6 on less than 48% shooting.

Is Turner for Otto worth it? I have Turner btw

Where do you check that he's 50th for season totals? Yahoo ranking?

Basketball Monster has a free version which allows you to adjust for per season totals (among other things).

As long as he keeps cycling those PEDs he'll be okay, and the league will continue to look the other way.

No but tbh accurate ros projections don’t truly exist.

What? Do you think LeBron is on some miracle PED that other superstars aren't? It's not like he's the only NBA player taking substances
