cant believe Gooden just F'd me like that

who to play tonight: J. Green or Odom?

 

[offbad]

odom deserves a must-start if he's in the starting lineup with bynum out

 

[jboi112]

^ Agreed. Not to mention James Harden is active for tonight's game. Not sure if he'll play, but if he does... that's less minutes for Green.

Hopefully CP3 get limited minutes the rest of the season so Collison can get a good run.

^ Congrats! I bet it felt like you just conquered the world for a brief second when you saw the waiver request was successful.

That's how I felt when I came up on Troy Murphy. lol.

I'm hoping Coach Bower shuts CP3 down for the season. No more of this timeshare deal at PG. haha.

 

[bangdak]

Hell no. Put DC on t he end of the bench. i need CP back.

Anyway, looking at the Warriors Roster, all their big men are hurt xcept Tolliver. Tolliver should be getting major minutes. Who the hell is the their PF though? Maggette? #+*?

I can't mess with any Warriors player not named Maggette or Ellis

... Hell, I traded Curry (and G.Wallace) to Chester right before the deadline and now I'm facing him in the first round...

True. You'll never know whats gonna happen with that team. Though, CJ Watson has been pretty good for me when he was getting the minutes. I probably picked and dropped him 3-4 times already. Im still mad i drafted Randolph, only to see him get hurt.

Save some Warriors for me brah. Haha.

 

[kklutch22]

Someone just dropped Blatche in my league. Do I drop Joakim and pick up Blatch/Harrington?

 

[mr fizzy womack]

^ drop Noah, pick up Blatche

 

[heavenlee777]

Are there any rookies/scrubs (other than Terrence Williams, Jrue Holiday, Toney Douglas, Taj Gibson, Tolliver) that are supposed to get a massive increase in playing time in the next two weeks?
I am gonna be in the championship round in my fantasy league and I need help big time haha.

I just picked up James Singleton from the Wizards:

After Singleton hopped around, banged and battled for 35 minutes, Coach Flip Saunders said that he would have to make a lineup change when the Wizards face the Charlotte Bobcats on Friday. The most likely candidate to get replaced is JaVale McGee, who was held scoreless with just three rebounds in little over 12 minutes. "The only bright spot we had tonight was James. He was unbelievable," Saunders said. "We probably have to start him," Saunders said of Singleton. "He's playing too good. We've been in a situation here, where you're trying to evaluate players. But at some point, you have to still evaluate, but you have to reward the guys that are doing things and producing in a limited time and give them the minutes."
http://voices.washingtonp...tml?wprss=wizardsinsider

I'm desperate...

dropped Terrence Williams.... Singleton has 2 more games this week but they'e kinda tough: Bobcats & Jazz.

Sidenote: CJ Miles (Jazz) is a good option IF AK47 is out.

 

[thasoleful1]

whats the updates with marc gasol i dropped him for gooden a couple days ago and then i dropped brand for noah

tryna get extra games over my opponent, i refuse to lose to a lower seed

 

[jj1223]

anyone else giving up on K. Love?
Toney Douglas is still available in my league and Jrue Holiday is constantly being added and dropped so I could probably get either one of them

"#nbakings guard Tyreke Evans will miss next 2 games (concussion) says Westphal after Evans felt dizzy during practice. http://myloc.me/5eqXM"

Hope he gets better in time for next week...

But I need CP3 to get 20-10-5-2 again. Haha.

Son of a .....!!!
He better be good to go for Tusedays game because if not, Udrih (the player I dropped for him) will be a major contributor and someone will probably pick him up since he has been averaging close to triple double with Evans out. 

Although I have Collison, I do wish CP3 takes over the again so that it is easier to drop Collison and pick up Udrih again. 

 

[mr fizzy womack]

Situation:

I picked up Singleton yesterday but I'm just seeing Reggie Williams (GSW) is available....

Like I said earlier, I usually don't mess with GSW players anymore, but dude has been good money...

Problem is, he only has 1 game left this week (saturday @Mavs).

Singleton has 2 games, but they're some tough matchups (Friday @Bobcats & Saturday v. Jazz)

And I pretty much need all stats available so that's not gonna help me pick one or the other...

 

[mustbetheshoe58]

^ i say stick it out with singleton. they're going to be down big anyway so more PT for him

question to the fantasy folks out there:

i play in the semifinals next week and i looked at the schedules for next week and he has 46 players compared to my 41, should i do the add and drop?

the most droppable players i can do is 2 max. i'm sure he'll be adding/dropping as well. smh at no limits on add and drops

 

[mr fizzy womack]

^ Can you be more specific?

Who do you plan to drop/pick up?

And whomever you plan on picking up, are their match-ups beneficial to you?

Edit - Guy I'm going against has Blatche too. Would that change your decision?

Plus, the Williams kid is the 6th man, and it looks like he's getting some GOOD shots.

Last time Singleton saw GDubb on D, it was

smh at you adding/dropping to get more plays.



im at a huge disadvantage too, but adding/dropping to win is just cheap and dirty.

LOL. There usually is a limit on the adds/drops per week. And if you got a droppable player, why not? You can't win the whole thing by just drafting the best team possible in the beginning. Especially with injuries and good players resting at this time of the season. 

 

[bangdak]

Hes saying, he wishes there was no drop & add limit so he can keep adding and dropping for more plays, correct me if im wrong.





thers nothing wrong with adding/dropping injured players, but to add + drop just to get more plays? i'm not a fan of that.

 

[offbad]

yeah it's #%@+@@ up but sometimes you hafta stream plays to get that W.

take heed of that advice.

 

[rfx45]

I must say, I have done that but only if I could afford to drop the player. Like I would be down on assists or steals by Saturday so I would choose someone who gives out assists and take steals that plays on Sunday and pick them up. I've got a few points won doing that. In the playoffs, if it means winning to move on the next round I say go for it. Now if that strategy were abused, like a person would drop and add every other day, then I would be against that but if it is once in a while, I see it as a good strategy.

 

[bangdak]

^that mentioned towards my current matchup?

im a bit confident i can comeback, but if things arent looking good by tonight, a few changes would be made for sure.

 

[offbad]

nah just in general. i mean if you don't use your adds they go to waste anyways. and there's a 5 add per week cap anyways.

 

[nicedudewithnicedreams]

Yeah, you have to take advantage of the adds/drops. I mean sure, if my opponent doesn't use it, I probably wouldn't use it too. But considering my opponent used 4 already this week, I gotta smarten up and make some moves too. I'm not going to sit here Sunday night and congratulate myself for not using any adds while my opponent beats me.

Now me maxing out on 25 adds/drops total sucked for me in another league. Didn't even know there was a limit until Yahoo warned me when I was at 20.
