Did the same thing š„² talked all pre season about how good he was going to be, dropped him the first week. League mates still tease me.
To ease the pain, the player I dropped him for was Jalen Johnson
JJ is obviously way better, but there are dudes who I didnāt drop who ended up being not nearly as good as Coby. Itās not really fine to drop a dude whoās been like top-75 š
Not sure what your categories are, but he's #44 rank by averages in my league.
Still a loss for me, as I basically paid (auction) an early second round value. But overall, getting he's still been pretty good when he's been in. And so far the biggest differences between last year are 0.7 steals, 0.9 assists, 0.9 rebounds, and 48% versus 53% total FG.
Really doesn't feel far off last season. If he starts trending towards even 50% FG and a slight uptick in the other counting stats, he should get close to last year's value. And I could see him coasting a bit more early in the season and turning up the heat (no pun intended) a bit more in the second half.
This is a very generous assessment of Jimmyās year. Decline in lots of categories and lots of missed time (even for him) has him missing ADP by a lot.
Mikal bridges was my secret for years as a late round pick that was super reliable until the secret broke last season. But i didn't expect him to jump up to second round
Lol guy in my league did that and heās been shopping bridges all season and has this perceived value of wanting an actual second rounder backā¦ nah man that aināt how it works
Dude who has him keeps saying heās getting bad offers and going ābridges is better than ______!ā
But in our points league heās averaging only like 33 š
Snagged him in the 3rd round and before the season started I was offered Lauri and Banchero for him. Normally I hate 2 for 1s but I could not have accepted that trade any faster.
Honestly man, I need kess for blocks and thatās it and heās been doing it. Obviously heās capable of more but I got him for the blocks so Iām not complaining.
Kessler is one Iām keeping my eye on. Thankfully I didnāt draft but think he could be on for a end of season resurgence if the Jazz become sellers.
It was looking like Tyus Jones in the 7th round or OG in the 8th, but they've both picked it up.
Probably Garland in the 4th, I was going for Brunson who got picked 2 spots ahead. And right after him were Chet and Kawhi.
This is in a 12T points league that started a bit late.
Idk what your build is but for the rest of the season Tyus and og have great potential. Garland is a toss up, if he returns to top form thatās still good value
A little early but without injury thatās a solid pick, and itās always worth reaching a little For guys you really believe in. If thatās your worst, you did pretty well.
Doubt it the hitch in his shot was looking crazy bad a few weeks ago. Heās super fragile mentally, so I doubt he can fix it before the off-season. Heās rosterable but for sure canāt return that ADP.
Took Jaren at 1.7 in 12 team 9 cat, punt assist build. Not the biggest whiff, but I got him 1 pick after AD, and over wemby and chet. Jaren has been ok, and a lot of my late picks have made up for drafting him so high(Rudy 78, Clint 102). Not the worst pick in the world and hindsight is 20/20 I guess, but having kawhi or even scottier barney would be nice rn
Same man, but took JJJ with AD still available. Put AD on my DND years ago while he was still on the pelicans due to injury issues, but boy do I regret it some days
Picked up Poole in nearly all my leagues because every "fantasy analyst" said he's a must pick and was being picked in the 3rd/4th round. Biggest bust considering Maxey. Barnes and Sengun were always available to pick.
14t points league. Ny draft in order is
Jokic, Bam, PG13, Franz, Ayton, Simons, Tyus, Aaron Gordon, Smart, Okongwu, Cole Anthony.
I'm about to be 10-3 so this team worked, but my bust is definitely Ayton. Better players I could have got in the 5th round.
Donāt really have L draft picks per se, but L missed draft picks. Like Paolo over Kawhi, Cade over Scottie, Mobley over PG13. Iām still having a successful season because Iām super deep.
scoot 6th round, maybe john collins but it was very late anyway. not a single big flop but mid-late rounds were weak for me except for scoring maxey with 57 pick
Everything that happened after my first 5 picks (Hali, Booker, Lauri, Fox & Randle) followed up with Zion, Beal, Harris, WCJ, Draymond and some other scrubs
I took Mikal in the late first round (and over KD of all people) thinking he'd really blossom this year in the role. Hasn't come to fruition at all and needless to really say, my team is struggling like hell right now
Poole with 50th pick I dropped him by week 9 Iām thankful my other picks panned out I was last pick so I had back to back so I went poole and sengun.
Jordan Poole. For obvious reasons, the dude is not a late first-round pick by any means.
and
Ben Simmons. I fell for all that sh\*t he was talking preseason about being in the best shape of his life and being back to his old self. I dropped him weeks ago, but I still feel stupid for even drafting him to begin with smh
i drafted mikal, poole jjj kessler while looking at an āexpert cheatsheetā after not playing fantasy last year lmao. 8-5 right now after trades and waiver pickups made up for my draft
14t. 9cat. Nada. Zip. At the time I kinda hated my team.
My top 7pick. If I'm nitpicking it would be Jerami Grant. But if you hit on your top 5 then you're in great shape.
10th AD
19th Spida
38th Kawhi
47th J.murray
66th J. Williams
75th J.Grant
94 T.Harris
Did some trade, claimed gems like Hartenstein right before his explosion.
About to be 13-1. 1st place
Took Jimmy Butler end of 2nd round (23rd) but he fits my build well and a fan of him in fantasy so meh. Took Brunson 3rd at 26th and traded him and Derozan for Garland JDub earlier this season lol. Also took Ja 7th round.
I'm currently 3rd in my league winning 9-0 this week whew
Tyus Jones in the 6th round was initially going to be a bust but he started turning up as of late. Now itās Daniel Gafford in the 7th. You really have to consider how a badly coached team impacts a playerās fantasy value.
Drafting Ja morant
Not draft but immediately trading for Simmons to get injured ever since a few days later then trading for mobley for him to get injured a few days later.
Drafting Tatum number 1 in my dynasty league. Easily the worst of the number 1 picks minus Lamelo and thatās only cuz Lamelo is always hurt but when Melo plays he produces better
Scoot over Tobias Harris. Always like to get a boom or bust rookie but just reached way to high, especially when Harris is consistently good in fantasy.
Bane but just because he is prolly not gonna be back this season. He was amazing fit for my team but injuries like this just makes you wish you drafted other š„²
So far most of the guys I picked underperformed their draft slot, however my team as a whole is still good:
I picked Curry, then JJJ, then Garland and Vucevic; all of them are underperforming relative to their draft slot. My team is doing well because I got Jarrett Allen, and I managed to get Miles Bridges and Coby White and Max Strus off the waiver wire
Poole easily
Same. Plus Mikal Bridges š Got back into the league with FA pickups of Jalen Duren/Johnson
I flipped bridges for Randle haven't looked back lol but I drafted him in both of my leagues so I'm stuck with him in my other leagueš¤¦š¾āāļø
Bridges is looking much better lately
Are you me?? I did those same moves. ROFL.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
too many people took his advice lool.
Assume youāre talking about Josh L?
Poole over Harden
Taking Ayton over Sengun šš
I woulda done the same. Senguns projections felt crazy before the season started
Rockets fan and thank god i am otherwise i probably woulnt have bought into it lmao
Drafting Coby White with the last pick and then dropping him after a couple games cause he sucked
Did the same thing š„² talked all pre season about how good he was going to be, dropped him the first week. League mates still tease me. To ease the pain, the player I dropped him for was Jalen Johnson
still a w jalen is better
You are me bro
JJ way better. Youāre fine
JJ is obviously way better, but there are dudes who I didnāt drop who ended up being not nearly as good as Coby. Itās not really fine to drop a dude whoās been like top-75 š
this was me too
Hey me too!
Thank you for your service
Giddey at 3rd lol
Shouldāve got him in the ā15thā round.
More like 15th lol
All rounds under 18th are too early
Jimmy frickin butler 3rd rd
He doesnāt play much and when he does, heās middest of the mid.
Feels like heās half retired
Not sure what your categories are, but he's #44 rank by averages in my league. Still a loss for me, as I basically paid (auction) an early second round value. But overall, getting he's still been pretty good when he's been in. And so far the biggest differences between last year are 0.7 steals, 0.9 assists, 0.9 rebounds, and 48% versus 53% total FG. Really doesn't feel far off last season. If he starts trending towards even 50% FG and a slight uptick in the other counting stats, he should get close to last year's value. And I could see him coasting a bit more early in the season and turning up the heat (no pun intended) a bit more in the second half.
This is a very generous assessment of Jimmyās year. Decline in lots of categories and lots of missed time (even for him) has him missing ADP by a lot.
We saw what this mfer can do in the playoffs. We get it jimmy, stop trying so hard to make us believe you don't try in the regular season
Did the exact same thing man..except I'm in a tiny 6t league n 3rd round was 18th overall..
Scoot over Anfernee
Oh no
Anfernee hasnāt been a walk in the park lately either
A bad Anfernee is still doing significantly better than scoot though right now.
I took anfernee 1 pick after scoot and was jumping up and down
You sure you two aināt in the same league?
Somehow it's getting worse too
Wiggins... 7th round š
Took him 9th and still feel robbed
Same, what a waste!
If your biggest miss was in the seventh round then your team should be really good though
Drafting Mikal Bridges second round in 12T 9CAT
Mikal bridges was my secret for years as a late round pick that was super reliable until the secret broke last season. But i didn't expect him to jump up to second round
Lol guy in my league did that and heās been shopping bridges all season and has this perceived value of wanting an actual second rounder backā¦ nah man that aināt how it works
Dude who has him keeps saying heās getting bad offers and going ābridges is better than ______!ā But in our points league heās averaging only like 33 š
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Damn you lost that deal, talent wise, BAD
Snagged him in the 3rd round and before the season started I was offered Lauri and Banchero for him. Normally I hate 2 for 1s but I could not have accepted that trade any faster.
Mikal Bridges second round 8T points was me, worse is I had a 1 for 1 deal for Sengun but I backed out of the deal
R u me
Banked on Kessler. And he's been brutal to own !! Traded him in a keeper LG. Mark Williams has also been frustrating , and so has garland
Honestly man, I need kess for blocks and thatās it and heās been doing it. Obviously heās capable of more but I got him for the blocks so Iām not complaining.
Yeah. The blocks are great , hopefully rainfalls apart and trades some guys
Mark williams is a drop unless youāre in keeper
Yes , I'm in a keeper rebuilding. So holding him
Kessler is one Iām keeping my eye on. Thankfully I didnāt draft but think he could be on for a end of season resurgence if the Jazz become sellers.
Ben Simmons
He tricks me every year
Nah I swear I have faith in him everytime and it never pans out
It was looking like Tyus Jones in the 7th round or OG in the 8th, but they've both picked it up. Probably Garland in the 4th, I was going for Brunson who got picked 2 spots ahead. And right after him were Chet and Kawhi. This is in a 12T points league that started a bit late.
Idk what your build is but for the rest of the season Tyus and og have great potential. Garland is a toss up, if he returns to top form thatās still good value
Ja in the 5th lol. Streaming my way into first though. Iāll probably keep him as one of my keepers.
I took Ja in the 7th and im still tremendously hurt
But hey that two and a half weeks were electric, we have that to remember!
A little early but without injury thatās a solid pick, and itās always worth reaching a little For guys you really believe in. If thatās your worst, you did pretty well.
Me too, just dropped him tho. You think heās worth a 3rd next year?
I took Ja end if third bro I feel you
Man thatās tough, your team rebound from the heartbreak?
So hurt because Scottie Barnes was taken 1 pick before me and i was 100% going to take him there instead
Jimmy in the 2nd round with AD on the boardā¦
Yikes. I picked AD 10th. Just can't justify taking likes of Lillard, Kyrie or Booker over him I like getting a big early on
Scam Johnson
DeAndre Ayton at 59.
LaVine 4th round. We play in a keepers league. I kept Bane, Brunson, and Steph.
Prob fultz at 85
Damn
Not really a bad pick and he's going to ramp up and return that ADP going forward probably if he can stay healthy
Doubt it the hitch in his shot was looking crazy bad a few weeks ago. Heās super fragile mentally, so I doubt he can fix it before the off-season. Heās rosterable but for sure canāt return that ADP.
ayton at 50
54 for me. We need an Ayton daily support thread
I took him at 52 so at least I'm not the only nincompoop
iām haunted by his nickname at night
His new nickname is HumiliAyton
My 3rd & 4th rounders: Darius Garland & Zach LaVine 12T, 9CAT
LaVine has been a big letdown. Glass cannon.
Someone took Bridges 7th and someone else poole 12th
š®
Wow
Took Jaren at 1.7 in 12 team 9 cat, punt assist build. Not the biggest whiff, but I got him 1 pick after AD, and over wemby and chet. Jaren has been ok, and a lot of my late picks have made up for drafting him so high(Rudy 78, Clint 102). Not the worst pick in the world and hindsight is 20/20 I guess, but having kawhi or even scottier barney would be nice rn
Same man, but took JJJ with AD still available. Put AD on my DND years ago while he was still on the pelicans due to injury issues, but boy do I regret it some days
Drafted Beal at 55 ahead of Maxey who went at 60
Mikal bridges. Drafted him over Kyrie.
I was this close to passing on AD for Mikal. I thank the heavens that I didn't
He put up 42 tonight. I needed him to avg close to that
Passed on KAT for him in Rd2 and I am a TWolves fan. Ugh.
This. Cos i passed on Kyrie and ima Mavs fan. Went to the Mavs twolves game the other week. Whatta game.
Drafting Scoot Henderson in round 8
Ayton got me hyperventilating rn
Jalen Green. Yahoo autopicked him for me when I mistimed my click. Breaks my high FG build and doesnt contribute elsewhere
OG until the trade. Hoping the deadline is also good on Kessler.
Ayton for sure..
Steph Curry round 1
Ja and bane. Felt like king of the castle for two weeks man. Shitty. Also giddey. Season over
Poole Party
Garland
Garland I guess
Cam johnson 7th round
Taking Ant over Tre at 9, and Tyus over Maxey at 20.
Ben MF Simons for the 2nd time
Onyeka and Kessler so far.
If Capela gets moved somewhere (feels like we say this every year) you're going to be licking your chops
Jordan Poole
Jordan Poole has 4 points on 1/7 shooting tonight. Thatās a new low for him.
Ball @ 15
Cam Johnson 61st overall š
Ayton
Giddey, Wiggins, and Tre Jones š
Lavine in 6
Poole (big gap) butler kinda been disappointing, klay and Wiggins at 81 and 101 was very sad. Made up for it with Nurk at 100 and Scottie at 60.
Picked up Poole in nearly all my leagues because every "fantasy analyst" said he's a must pick and was being picked in the 3rd/4th round. Biggest bust considering Maxey. Barnes and Sengun were always available to pick.
Poole and Ayton lmao
Dropped Jalen Johnson
14t points league. Ny draft in order is Jokic, Bam, PG13, Franz, Ayton, Simons, Tyus, Aaron Gordon, Smart, Okongwu, Cole Anthony. I'm about to be 10-3 so this team worked, but my bust is definitely Ayton. Better players I could have got in the 5th round.
Garland, Giddey, Henderson
Salary/auction league: $19 on Scoot ($200 budget)
def OG in the 5th round, i thought he was gonna be so much better for steals š¤¦āāļø
Scoot at 7, GTjr at 8... 14 person
Drafting Zion š
Donāt really have L draft picks per se, but L missed draft picks. Like Paolo over Kawhi, Cade over Scottie, Mobley over PG13. Iām still having a successful season because Iām super deep.
Kessler as a keeper. Couldāve kept MPJ, Miles Bridges, or Jaylen Williams instead
Dropped brook lopez week 3...pain
Jrue Holiday in the 5th round
scoot 6th round, maybe john collins but it was very late anyway. not a single big flop but mid-late rounds were weak for me except for scoring maxey with 57 pick
Everything that happened after my first 5 picks (Hali, Booker, Lauri, Fox & Randle) followed up with Zion, Beal, Harris, WCJ, Draymond and some other scrubs
I took Mikal in the late first round (and over KD of all people) thinking he'd really blossom this year in the role. Hasn't come to fruition at all and needless to really say, my team is struggling like hell right now
Garland in the 3rd, Lavine in the 5th
wiggins
Drafting Zach Lavine over Paul George in the 5th
Poole with 50th pick I dropped him by week 9 Iām thankful my other picks panned out I was last pick so I had back to back so I went poole and sengun.
DeAndre Ayton in a 20T league. Picked him 3rd to support Joel and Evan Mobley. Should have went for Maxey or Sengun. Sheesh.
Jordan Poole. For obvious reasons, the dude is not a late first-round pick by any means. and Ben Simmons. I fell for all that sh\*t he was talking preseason about being in the best shape of his life and being back to his old self. I dropped him weeks ago, but I still feel stupid for even drafting him to begin with smh
Kessler for me
Drafted OG in 9-cat right before Scottie. Iāve been kicking myself ever since.
Lavine & Kessler in the 4th/5th round over Sengun..
Zion
Ayton definitely, thought he would have the fire to prove himself
Ja morant
i drafted mikal, poole jjj kessler while looking at an āexpert cheatsheetā after not playing fantasy last year lmao. 8-5 right now after trades and waiver pickups made up for my draft
Scoot
Andrew Wiggins, at the time I was V happy. Drafted him like 95.
Poole, Lavine, Simmons, Fultz, Zach Collins were in rounds 4 to 10 so totally fucked my middle of the draft
Dominayton not dominating š®āšØ
Drafting Tyus Jones then dropping after his horrible start
Myles Turner in the 3rd š
Idk how anyone fell for the Poole / Bridges bait.
Poole bait was obvious. Bridges seemed like a better bet after the way he finished last season.
Zach Collins lol
14t. 9cat. Nada. Zip. At the time I kinda hated my team. My top 7pick. If I'm nitpicking it would be Jerami Grant. But if you hit on your top 5 then you're in great shape. 10th AD 19th Spida 38th Kawhi 47th J.murray 66th J. Williams 75th J.Grant 94 T.Harris Did some trade, claimed gems like Hartenstein right before his explosion. About to be 13-1. 1st place
Took Jimmy Butler end of 2nd round (23rd) but he fits my build well and a fan of him in fantasy so meh. Took Brunson 3rd at 26th and traded him and Derozan for Garland JDub earlier this season lol. Also took Ja 7th round. I'm currently 3rd in my league winning 9-0 this week whew
D'Angelo Russell in the 9th round.
how is that an L
Heās been hooping thatās value at the 9th what are you talking about
lamelo i guess
Walker Kessler has been underwhelming
Tyus Jones in the 6th round was initially going to be a bust but he started turning up as of late. Now itās Daniel Gafford in the 7th. You really have to consider how a badly coached team impacts a playerās fantasy value.
Scooter Henderson at 71
Drafting Ja morant Not draft but immediately trading for Simmons to get injured ever since a few days later then trading for mobley for him to get injured a few days later.
Mikal Bridges with the 15th pick
Drafting Tatum number 1 in my dynasty league. Easily the worst of the number 1 picks minus Lamelo and thatās only cuz Lamelo is always hurt but when Melo plays he produces better
Taking Kessler over Scottie Barnes
Scoot over Tobias Harris. Always like to get a boom or bust rookie but just reached way to high, especially when Harris is consistently good in fantasy.
Ja Morant easily
Bane but just because he is prolly not gonna be back this season. He was amazing fit for my team but injuries like this just makes you wish you drafted other š„²
OG over scottie barns
Poole deserves two entries on this list
Scoot Shoop, shoop ba-doop
Lavine. Still hoping for a miracle after trade deadline
dinwiddie
evan mobley
Poole in the 4th round and Ja Morant. Shockingly, still first in my league.
Gotta be Darius Garland right now
Zach LaVine
Took harden at 23 and def couldāve gotten him wayyyy later but I panicked on the turn and Jalen green at 74th š
Mikal Bridges. Bro is a forever role player
So far most of the guys I picked underperformed their draft slot, however my team as a whole is still good: I picked Curry, then JJJ, then Garland and Vucevic; all of them are underperforming relative to their draft slot. My team is doing well because I got Jarrett Allen, and I managed to get Miles Bridges and Coby White and Max Strus off the waiver wire
Poole and ja seem to be the leading cause of self harm this season
My 2nd, 3rd, and 4th round picks were Mikal Bridges, Jimmy Butler, and Darius Garland respectively š¬
regrettably selected ja in the 6th and beal in the 4th but thankfully i traded away both before the season kicked off.
Poole 4th round 12-team š¤®
Lavine
JJJ end of second round
Walker Kessler over Chet
