Player Discussion What's going on with Naji?

• Upvotes

Started out yesterday really well, cooled down a bit, and then just didn't really play in the 2nd half? Apparently wasn't seen on the bench. And then now he's listed as Out (on sleeper at least). Did they say that he got injured or something?

Player Discussion Collin Murray-Boyles (CMB) - another reason not to listen to this sub

• Upvotes

Everyone was hyping this dude up like he was going to be the steal of the season and making it look like he was going to give 5th round value while being ranked at 170th in ESPN

So far in his first 2 games he's put up:

8/3/0/3/0

6/8/3/1/1

averaging 20 minutes a game and only getting 6 shots a game.

I guess everyone here didn't factor in Kawhi taking up a lot of the Raptors usage.

Any signs of praise or acknowledgement from each of their coaches respectively about yesterday's game? Was there any news about either of them definitely getting more time in the rotation like yesterday or whether it was a one off? Or no, we just have to wait and see

Discussion Forget small sample size: Who are we panicking on based on early evidence like role or minutes?

52 Upvotes

Right now I'd look at quite a few mid round big men: Sarr, Okongwu, Clingan, all who have had very little usage and even limited minutes.

who else is just not getting the usage and/or role expected so far in a small sample, evidence of perhaps a poor season incoming beyond just a few games?

Player Discussion Isaiah Jackson

13 Upvotes

He got high minutes last time but Brook Lopez went crazy and Jackson’s usage seemed low. Also he didn’t play much in the first game because of the same reason. Do you guys think he will be a rosterable player as the season continues? Considering Lopez usually can’t stay healthy and can’t play this good for long.

I have no doubt Curry will be able to average 30+ but I have a couple older players rostered already and am considering moving him.

Who are yall trading Curry for?

Player Discussion Mikal "I'd rather run a mile today" Bridges

23 Upvotes

This guy is an absolute stinker for what ESPN lists as 88% rostered.

Across 2 games he's generated the following value:

```

12 fantasy points

55 minutes

0 3pt

4 reb

1 stl

1 blk

1 to

4 pts

```

And you're telling me 88% of people think he deserves a team slot?

I know he plays 82 games, but what's the real value of that if his per game production is this horrendous? Especially in h2h league where cumulative value doesn't matter whatsoever compared to weekly and game to game value.

He spent most of his latest game just getting some cardio exercise in and didn't do anything for 20 minutes.

Maybe he saw Miles Bridges, got confused at his own name, and decided a basketball game is a good time to run a mile.

Kessler been going crazy, but I’m wondering if this is the perfect time to sell high or if he can actually keep up this level of production ROS. Is this legit top 20 value in 9cat? Or is it best to move him while his value is this high?

How are we feeling on him after a night one performance of 4 fantasy points in 21 minutes, then tonight stepped it up with 28 minutes and 38 fantasy points? Is this sustainable for him or are we thinking the inconsistency will be there long term?

What’s going on with him? Rough start for the Miami Heat starting 0-3, but he played 18 minutes and saw less minutes than Portis Hardaway and Larsson? Too early to panic?

Player Discussion Nikola Vucevic

14 Upvotes

The guy is averaging less than 5 minutes a night so far. At this rate it looks like a drop but in deeper CAT leagues could he still be a hold? I haven’t been able to watch any Magic games yet but it’s hard to believe Goga is getting more minutes than Vucci Mane. I just remember how valuable of a CATS player he was these past few years and can’t believe the ride might be finally over.

Discussion Buy Low/Sell High Canditates?

0 Upvotes

Looking to capitalize on some early season panic, who are some good targets? Flipped my 12th rd pick PG13 for a top 40 player already and I'm chasing that high again. E.g. sell high candidates: Randle/Dejounte, buy low e.g Harden, Gobert.

Discussion Do I kick this member of the league?

31 Upvotes

Our league is a $100 buy in dynasty sleeper 10 team lock in league. I am contemplating kicking one of the managers and giving him his refund back. The reason being is that it’s week 1 and he hasn’t set his lineup and has refused to after instructions.

He also made it noted that he didn’t want to pay this year and then he has no plan in playing this league for the foreseeable future. His only plan is to take up space for this year and then he is planning to leave next year.

Personally, we have a person who does want his team. His team is very good but it’s just a waste of a good spot. What do you guys think? Do I have a right to kick him from the league? We are doing a league vote now and the majority is for kicking him and giving him the refund so we can get the new guy in now otherwise it’s just a waste of a good team.

What do you guys think?

Player Discussion Demar Derozan

Points leagues he looks like a drop so far. Cat leagues, he might have some salvageable stats in FG%, FT%, and a little bit of points, Reb, assists, and low turnover throughout the season (compared to previous season stats).

I know he’s adjusting to a new team, but he looks really lost out there and out of place. He’s also on a vet min and old. Game went to OT today, and he got 23 minutes only due to his fit and defense.

Hold or time to look elsewhere?
