2012 OFFICIAL NBA Fantasy Basketball Thread

[Ja's 2¢]

its with a bunch of my friends so no deadbeats. winner take all so its really competitive. last year i won a 14 man money league (10 dollars a head) but there were 2 deadbeats after the draft so they basically screwed up the league for everyone. i still got paid from the other 11 players though so im not complaining

damn, but at least you still got paid.

 

[diewitsjames]

yup, fantasy basketball isnt fun if money isnt involved. people drop out all the time when their top stars get injured or they lose 2-3 weeks in a row, which is really annoying

 

[ironmike]

So the guy who offered me Conley for Pau backed out before I could accept the offer. And traded him to someone else. But that guy then offered me Conley for Bargnani lol do I still take it? I'm only hesitant because Bargs has been putting up points lately. Even though that's all he puts up...

 

[baydestrian408]

First year playing, 3-1, 14 teams, my team:
T. Parker
J. Crawford (LAC)
P. Pierce
C. Landry
A. Varejao
L. Sanders
M. Morris (PHO)
J. Harden
D. Lillard
G. Vasquez
G. Davis (ORL)
B. Beal
J. Redick

Who could I package up to get an elite player like Bron or KD? Guy that has Bron, loves harden, maybe I can package something with him in it. Or is my team good to go?

i think your team is good to go. i don't see a need to give up a number of guys for lebron or KD. scoring and rebounds are covered pretty well with your guys. Only thing lacking I see is assists. Maybe drop beal to pick up an assist guy in free agency. Maybe trade for one.

I have Lebron and I wouldn't do JC (too steaky and with billups back too crowded) + Harden, but maybe Sanders + Harden I would bite at.

Basically rank these:
D. Lillard
B. Knight
D. DeRozan
B. Gordon
G. Hayward
T. Evans

Lillard (balling with the occasional down game)/DeRozan (scoring machine occasional 3 but thats it) sort of a tie, Knight (doing good but TO prone), Hayward (just needs consistent min but good), Gordon (too streaky plus henderson is back + jeff taylor is ballin), Evans (well no jumpshot, needs ball in hand to accomplish something, moron coach, messed up team)

i have lebron also and i definitely wouldnt trade him for harden and jc or sanders but maybe the guy in this persons league would

This is my squad:
Lin
Harden
Patrick Paterson
Robin Lopez
Anthony Davis
J Redick
Jason Richardson
Monta Ellis
Antawn Jamison
Gerald Henderson
Tyreke Evans
Carlos Boozer
kevin Martin

12 man league 11 categories.

Open to any suggestions. I know my squad needs a lot of improvement. I'm looking at Singler, Shawn Marion (both free agents) and Jrue Holiday (owned by someone else). Anyone you would drop/trade for these guys?

I'm thinking of dropping either Martin/Evans/Lin for Singler but I'm second guessing myself. Thanks.

whats the point of having ftm + ft% and fgm +fg%...if you win one you're likely going to win the other...

 

[philthy]

In my 10 player league, P Paterson and N Vucevic were just dropped into their waivers and I have first priority. I'm thinking one of them would be a good pickup, but not sure if I want to drop any of my current PF,C players

Advice? My lineup is:

J. Lin
K. Bryant
OJ Mayo
J. Harden
L. Deng
C. Landry
C. Boozer
T. Chandler
T. Parker
---
H. Barnes
L. Scola
A. Stoudemire
C. Billups
