[paul is on tilt]

Stuckey had a good game today. Hughes had an alright game. Who would you pick between the 2? I'm getting pissed off at Duhon right about now. He's noteven playing in crunch time. Nate's in the game with Hughes right now.

 

[bangdak]

^we cant afford for duhon to play the final minutes. he needs to get his confidence back.
a win is a win though

i told you guys hughes would be a great pickup

edit: mcdyess is doing WONDERS for my team

 

[imasoleman18]

And who are you going to drop?

I don't know. Isn't Granger supposed to come back soon? Won't that affect Jack's numbers somewhat? I know Dunleavy is done for the season butGranger can affect his numbers still.

 

[imasoleman18]

idk who i would drop probably somone who isnt putting up numbers, im just asking if its a good pick up, everytime i see highlights of a pacers game jj has goodnumbers

 

[Los Angeles]

heads up Manu Ginobli is back, hes playing today (thursday).

 

[parada45]

^Should I drop Joel Przybilla for Manu?

Props for telling me to pick up Larry Hughes NT

 

[mustbetheshoe58]

^ do it

smh at me dropping przybilla earlier this week, hopefully i can get him back this weekend

 

[parada45]

yahoo had him returning earlier this morning, then they changed it.

 

[parada45]

^I guess that's where dude got his info

Yahoo FTL

 

[japanair21]

I always play JET, maybe it's because I'm a homer, but dude is silly with the points. Maybe it's because he's so reliable and won't getinjured for long periods of time either.


Heads up, Marvin out for the rest of the regular season.

 

[bangdak]

yes

always thought dude was a bum

and agreed with thomas. dude has been

 

[paul is on tilt]

Am I benching the right people tomorrow?

Here's this week's matchup with the team I'm facing.

I'm My Team Is Trash!. Thanks for the help guys.

 

[gregodensbedpan]

yeah, bench those dudes. duhon has been playing like straight doo doo.. turkoglu is injured and derrick rose is in a slump.

 

[paul is on tilt]

Yeah, it's a no-brainer for me to bench Turkoglu and Duhon but what I wanted to know was to bench either Rose or Tyrus Thomas since both have been playinglike trash

. But ok, I'll choose Tyrus Thomas over Derrick Rose. You just confirmed what I was thinking. Thanks for the help man.

 

[parada45]

Should I bench Bibby 2night he plays IND at home

 

[mustbetheshoe58]

picked up joel przybilla and dropped jason thompson. looks like greg oden will be coming back anytime soon. przybilla has been a beast as of late

 

[Los Angeles]

yo parada im not sure how bibby has been doing, who woudl you replace him with?

also:

ben gordon @ PHI (he went 1-10 last game)
or
jose calderon vs DET

Go with Calderon dude no doubt

I think I wanna just sit hit him and start someone later in the week. Dude had a terrible game on Monday I think it was.

Hello NT,
I would like some input as to why my team sucks. I'm just looking at it, it seems like I put together a pretty good team; yet im still in 4th place in a 12team league and am 11.5 games out of first.
Its pretty much a foregone conclusion that we're all playing for 2nd now.

What i typically lose week in and week out is TO.
Assts, FG% and FT% i seem to win about 2/3rds of the time.
3ptms and steals are usually a toss up.
and then PTs, Rebs, and Blocks I always win/dominate.

with that said what are the flaws on this squad? Its frustrating i thought i made some good trades which made up for my semi terrible draft.
Your thoughts, opinions, and feedback would be very much appreciated going into next years season so I don't *%!% up again

[bangdak]

surprised you dont lose in FG more often.
its typical that you lose in TO, pretty much everyone on your team averages 2+ TOs a night, some players like deron averaging 3.
well, i dont see what you can do to your team since the trade deadline is passed, (unless your commish changed it)
any solid FA's out in your wire?

 

[Deleted member 38182]

^naw i just picked up Marquis Daniels a week or two ago and thats it. Even if there was a good FA i wouldn't know who to drop.

richard jefferson is a field goal killer. i have him on my squad and he'll give you 25 points, but he'll take 23 shots, make 9 of them and the rest arefree throws. oh, and he likes turning the ball over. A LOT.
turkoglu is another culprit for TO's..
