Red Rox posted:You got me today but tomorrow I’ll have my revenge Hoo yea you got a lot of guys playing tomorrow. I’m the #1 Luka hater though so I can only assume his recent “skid” of sub-30 point games and poor 4th quarter showings means he’s gonna get shut down by the incredible backcourt defense of…Portland? Uh oh

Rick posted:Yeah I definitely thought that might be possible at some point, but like for example, I went to bed with my roster sent one way, and woke up and say that it had activated Kyrie (not long after I went to bed) even though he was still out and completely undid that day and the rest of my week. Yeah I can’t figure it out at all. There doesn’t seem to be any rhyme or reason to it I just occasionally check the score to see that I have three guys who are playing on the bench

Love to make a bid that's knowingly bad, win the bid, have a legal roster, but somehow it rejects the bid anyway. And it was replacing a player who was in my utility slot so there is zero reason for that to happen. This sucks.

Wait, so if I'm maxed at a position, I need to first cut a guy playing that position to make room for someone I may or may not get?

I actually understand why now, I didn't even think of it maxing out PFs but that is where the problem is. I kind of wish they would tell you because I would have just waited a few hours and made the bid when I could replace Hartenstein instead, which was the plan to begin with.rivetz posted:Wait, so if I'm maxed at a position, I need to first cut a guy playing that position to make room for someone I may or may not get?

Yeah the waiver system is kinda bad. Causes so much frustration. In happier news, I think this is the first time I've scored over 2k in a week - any idea what the all time high score is haha. Usually my teams are lucky to get over the median. And JJJ is about to play again! My Balls are balling!

So I dumped this year's draft into a spreadsheet and am cross-referencing with fantasy points to date to see who the early steals and busts are. This is base-level statistical comparison, just comparing where they were drafted with where they currently rank in fantasy points, both total and per-game. So if you drafted someone 40th overall and they current have the 50th-most total points, they'd have a -10 etc. Via that admittedly janky metric: Best Deals, Total Points 2. Jordan Clarkson (109) 3. Kelly Oubre (100) 5. Isaiah Stewart (99) 7. Nic Claxton (95) 8. Lauri Markkanen (71) 9. Bojan Bogdanovic (71) 13. Kevin Porter (60) 14. Steven Adams (48) 16. Jaden Ivey (47) 18. Marcus Morris (45) Best Deals, Points per Game 1. Jordan Clarkson (109) 2. Nic Claxton (95) 3. Kelly Oubre (100) 4. Anfernee Simons (35) 5. Isaiah Stewart (99) 6. Lauri Markkanen (71) 7. Marcus Morris (45) 8. Spencer Dinwiddie (39) 9. Kevin Porter Jr. (60) 10. Bennedict Mathurin (32) Biggest Busts, Total Points 1. LaMelo Ball (-140) 2. Kawhi Leonard (-119) 3. Jarrett Allen (-109) 4. Darius Garland (-94) 5. Christian Wood (-83) 6. Myles Turner (-83) 7. Deandre Ayton (-82) 8. Chris Paul (-79) 9. Bradley Beal (-74) 10. Terry Rozier (-70) Biggest Busts, Points per Game 1. Kawhi Leonard (-74) 2. Harrison Barnes (-62) 3. Deandre Ayton (-62) 4. LaMelo Ball (-55) 5. Klay Thompson (-54) 6. Collin Sexton (-54) 7. Christian Wood (-52) 8. Jabari Smith (-51) 9. Keegan Murray (-50) 10. Chris Paul (-49) Again this is a stupidly linear/dippy way of looking at it. Eyeballing from the top of the draft down for best values: SGA (drafted 33rd, currently 5th in total pts) Spyda (drafted 29th, currently 6th in ppg) Markannen (drafted 80th, currently 9th in total pts) Porzingis (drafted 59th, currently 22nd in total pts) Siakam (drafted 24th, currently 9th in ppg) As far as busts, it's tougher w injuries, but Biggest Bust thus far goes to Ben Simmons w DeAndre Ayton not far behind. Simmons isn't on the rankings above because I only pulled in the top 160 scorers and before last night's 11-pt eruption he didn't make the cutoff. Ayton is at least doing something but not nearly enough - currently 93rd in ppg and 113th in total points, after being drafted 31st overall by yours truly. Honorable mention to Anthony Edwards (drafted 9th, 48th in ppg) Also these lists do not include undrafted players. Top 5 FA signees, ranked by average ppg: 1. Brook Lopez 2. Kevin Huerter 3. Mason Plumlee 4. Bol Bol 5. Dennis Smith I'll run this poo poo again a few times throughout the season and post anything cool I find rivetz fucked around with this message at 07:58 on Nov 17, 2022 |

It’s even worse because I ditched Curry and had Edwards as my keeper from last year. Real questionable but I was going for vibes + availability. Also I would like to clarify/apologize for swooping Huerter in FA. I would have drafted him before Montrezl Harrel as my last pick but I thought I had two picks so I didn’t bother doing it in order Chronicles posted:

Not sure if anyone else sees this, but for quite a while now, whoever I’m playing against, when I click on LIVE! it says they have 9 or 10 people playing that day, no matter how many are actually playing. Like right now it says Durin’s All Star Kim still have 4 dudes yet to play today. Not sure what’s up with that but it’s always stressful!

I might be the most fraudulent 8-2 in the history of this young league, tied for best record despite slightly below average ppg and 2nd from the bottom in points against. Dame and Cade just hit the IR joining Middleton who I thought would be back by now and I haven't even hit the inevitable KD injury. Gonna be a rough December

I don't 100% understand why they marked Curry out in the third quarter of the game when I wouldn't have been able to take him out anyway. I mean he dropped 90 in three quarters so I'm not complaining but I just don't understand the motivation, there isn't any setting that lets you change players mid game.

^ yup that site is super weird, I’ve been playing in this league for a few years and I still don’t understand it’s dark magics. Today I have to resort to playing Poku at Small Forward. God help me. Would be interesting to see the acquisition totals compared to results. Most days I give up trying to find a player to add cause there is just nothing left.
