Should I go ahead and pick up Jarrett Jack?

 

[nublee]

Andrew Bynum just made all 3 of his free throws.... now I'm losing FT% by .001%

 

[nrg1604]

Of the 3, I think DJ Augustin has the highest ceiling... he just has to get past Felton.

Of the 3, I think Brook Lopez can be the most consistent.

 

[brighter than you]

^Agreed. DJ went back to the bench too.

Brook has more of a consistent roll with NJN

 

[japanair21]

Just calculated first four leagues (the ones I keep track of mostly)..

League 1- 6-3-0
League 2- 7-2-0 (4 stl's and 1 to away from a sweep)
League 3- 7-3-0
League 4- 2-7-0

Chester killed me..

No Nate/Horford/disappearance of Ramon Sessions did me in.

[champcruthik]

^ I think you should try to trade for a star scorer...

 

[eaglebball1499]

Alright, my Week 6 Results:

League 1: 4-5 Loss to NewOrleansHornets, 5th overall (backsliding a little bit in this league

)
League 2: 7-2 Win over Choclolate Rainers, 4th ovarall
League 3: 7-2 Win over Frank the Tank, 1st overall
League 4: 7-2 Win over NyCzViN_NT, 1st overall

 

[usedtobecool]

In a 16-team league would you hold on to Jamario Moon? He's been terrible and someone just dropped Luke Ridnour, but other than that, there isn't muchupside available on the waiver wire.

 

[Los Angeles]

^nope, jamario will continue to be booboo. I'd say go for Luke.

 

[parada45]

My LM changed the waiver wire 2day.

If I try and pick somone up and it says the move will take place at 3:00 am et 12/8/08 will I get him today?

Pretty damn good week,

. Overall week ended up as 34-4-2, that's probably the best I'll do all season (considering you'll always haveinjuries and whatnot). I'm very pleased with this week, especially since I'm ranked highly in a lot of them.

I dropped Ramon Sessions in all of my Leagues that weren't super-deep, Skiles is just not going to give him PT. I'm having debates over Larry Hughesfor Kevin Love also.

 

[gko2408]

How the hell do you keep track of all of that???

Of the 3, I think Brook Lopez can be the most consistent.

I was hoping gordon can continue after he had back to back 20pts games before zbo came. but now his attempts are down to about 7-8 a game. and lopez wassolid till recently when he couldn't get even double digit scoring. augustin still getting a good 25-30 min cause larry brown likes felton/augustin backcourt. i need help in 3pt and blk so i'm gonna need these guys to step up their game.

 

[da xplicit one]

What is that called when you can have wins and losses? I'm doing "Rotisserie" where you just have 10 pnts max for each category in both of myleagues.
I want to try that wins-losses one.


I just got offered my first trade

. He wants ZBo and he's giving meStephan Jackson

. I don't think so... S Jack is too inconsistent.

 

[japanair21]

Stephen Jackson is hurt right now, that may be a good trade Da Xplicit.

http://www.rotoworld.com/...ain.aspx?sport=NBA&id=503

gko, I just update once a week (unless I hear of injuries), and then at the end of the week I make moves.

I couldn't tell you who's on any particular team though,

 

[Los Angeles]

ok guys help!

give: amare and josh howard
receive: stephen jackson, al harrington, andre miller and gerald wallace?

 

[jordan201]

QUICK!!!

I give:
Durant

I get:
Granger

 

[japanair21]

Granger > Durant.

Bright, who are you dropping to make that trade happen. Unless they're straight up bums, I wouldn't do it.

Yo JAir:

My current roster:

C: Andris Bierdens
C: Al Jefferson
C: Amare Stoudamire
C: Al Horford
F: Paul Milsap
F: Josh Howard
G: Tony Parker
G: Jose Calderon
G: Nate Robinson

If I accept, i just need to drop 1 and it would most likely be Nate or Paul Milsap.

 

[jordan201]

New offer:

I get:

Granger
Emeka

I give:
Brewer
Durant
Marquis Daniels

I need some suggestions before 7 tonight.

I know it's after 7 already (at least on the east coast), but if you still need opinion's you'd be crazy to not do that trade.

 

[parada45]

Westbrook
Haslem
Stuckey
Blake


Which 3 should I keep?
