i wanna start analysing and working on my formula to beat CBucks next week

From "trash team" to "gotta figure out how to beat CB next week. Amazing

Was hoping for a 7-2 but Franz Wagner cost me with his FT's. Still love him tho, he's been an amazing pick up. I think Warrior had him earlier, couldn't believe he dropped him. Arguably Rookie of the Year.

I think with the results tonight I should be up to #1 tomorrow. I'll take that throne if you don't mind, Warrior

I had Wagner for about a week at the very beginning of his career, no indication he would maintain this level, more so i had no clue who he is. Good pick up he fits well in your team

Given the amount of guys i drop it's hard to regret one in particular. Some are addicted to lottery, i am addicted to streamers.

Enjoy your week on the throne, most of my guys clear protocols, i am back

Disgusting week tbh.

And I'm in for another one, Ghost is healthy while I'm still 7 guys down.

I think i said it after the first weeks, and I'll say it again. Matchup wise Urban's team troubles me the most. But alas #FANTASYPEDIGREE prevails, two scrappy trademark 5-4 wins for the Oaks vs Urban. We meet again just before the playoffs

So this league is determined strictly by the draft and who avoids injuries. At best you integrate 2-3 decent streamers. It was not always like this.

We are halfway through the season and everybody is perfectly satisfied of their teams ?? Except CBucks who's in first place willing to move Siakam

Time to test the waters. I put my whole team on trade block

jimmy butler can't help but sprain his ankle every other week jesus play wiser and get Steph's ankle braces

Ankles suck they don't seem to heal during the course of a season. Some big slovenian in my team got the same problem

Lingering injuries are the worst i still make nightmares about that pos plantar fasciitis which bothered Capela for 2 seasons

I think all but three of my regular guys have had covid now (not counting the couple of guys I've dropped / added). Which is kind of interesting, I'm wondering how closely this 75%+ infection rate of the last few weeks applies to the USA population as a whole? Helluva wave in the NBA at least.

Most of my players tested positive i assume same for everyone. A huge wave of shit but things are back to normal now ?? Once cleared from omicron the players cannot go back in protocols (for omicron variant) ??

You can catch covid - the same variant, too - multiple times, but my understanding is that it should be less likely and less severe if you've had it before.

I think covid bothers me more in terms of my fantasy team rather than the fact I work at the hospital in the covid department since day one.

Last week my top 8 picks were INJ

Absolutely horrid week lol. I dunno if I can turn it around. Steph and Patty have been fuckin brutal

lol

Fournier is the weirdest guy in fantasy, I swear.

lol i can believe that
has the talent and shooting ability but think it's probably an effort and focus problem with him

Anybody willing to trade ??

Surely i am not the only team that needs some adjustments

About Fournier: he is the Aaron Gordon of shooters

So close to Ghost

I was massively behind after monday and tuesday due to covid, but suddenly most of my guys cleared protocols on wednesday and it pisses me off cause Ghost is perfectly healthy and even with my guys returning I remained without Lillard and George, and still so close.

Will be a painful befeat.

Also shooting over 50% while generally being in the 30's all season

Capela ankle injury. Glad you rejected my trades after all. I have more than enough with Doncic

Ended up with the players i offered you anyways

I feel you. My past 4 beefs were the same missed a ton of guys due to protocols/injuries, finally this week it's been looking good. All tho still some categories are wide open.

I picked up VanVleet as my second choice, bet many question it, but my boy sitting at rank 4!

Second round was a bit early. But depending on your draft position sometimes you wait 15 turns between your picks so take who you like while you can. I never questioned the player, i watch Raptors regularly, for me VanVleet is all-star level.

My season started with a mistake at the draft oh i wish i had Giannis right now

As am being a Raptor fan I knew what VanVleet brings, however I’d be lying to you if I told you I knew he’d have this kind of season, I expected a jump from him after Lowry left, but dudes been performing at an All Star level will be gutted if they don’t give him a spot there.

I love Doncic and may have grab him but I try to avoid getting a PG first round due to there being many great options I always feel finding all round big is a lot hard hence Gianni’s and Jokic were my first choices luckily you grab Doncic and Urban auto picked Jokic lol

I won FG by 0.2% and threes by 1, I can only apologise to Jogodo The Franchise of JD x)

VanVleet is nice. Definitely has a 2nd rounder ceiling, and if he can execute very efficiently who's to say not 1st round ceiling if other usual 1st rounders are underperforming.

anyways.. should have worked the wire harder to put another 7-2 on CBucks' ass, but alas, it is another standard easy win over the Buckies

let's tussle @Habs

Nice win this week, but have CBucks as the opponent now

Last time was a convincing win for me, but the CBucks have much improved since then.

^^ ehh i thought so too heading into last week, but i don't know about "much", a bit, maybe... the league table is a bit misleading imo... CBucks beat up on a lot of IL teams and actually got a 9-0 win over Jogodo unlike the rest of us.

For instance this is what the H2H win-loss records look like:
Oakland City: 9-3
Habs: 9-3
CBucks: 8-4
Mambas: 7-5
Vibe: 7-5
Ghost: 6-5-1
Urban: 6-6
Westbricks: 4-8
Freeza: 2-9-1
Jogodo: 1-11

actually you should do well against him, if i do. Your team and mine share some commonalities.

Well i enjoyed the snooze cruise against Freeza

Tough stretch incoming next 3 weeks
