I spent many years of my youth living for others (not the charitable variety). It was probably due to a lack of identity and confidence that I let societal whims dictate my course. As I got older, and hopefully wiser (I’m still a dummy in many ways), I realized that this is my life and I’m going to live it the way I want to. We are all different, with different strengths and weaknesses, desires, motivations, etc. So, I do appreciate those who are strong enough to speak their mind, do their thing, and eschew all the BS. As much as I clown on Ben Simmons, what I most respect about him is that he knows who he is as a basketball player.

Simmons has yet to even attempt a threeecola all season. I’ve seen him practice it, and it’s probably something he will unveil at some point in his career, but for now, he’s dominating without it. Which is a freaking scary thought for the league. I’d imagine that the 58% shooting from the free throw line would drastically improve as well, once he gets that outside stroke working. Regardless, Simmons has now messed around three times this season, and he’s come close many other times. He’s a top 50 player now. Once he gets that outside stroke going, top 10 probably. No BS.

Collins is the caterpillar version of Julius Randle, who used to be a points/boards player with some dimes sprinkled in. Now, Randle has sprouted wings and blossomed into much more, as he’s draining threeecolas and even pollinating the stat line with some D stats. The transformation process takes time.

The Walking Dedmon? Over the last six games, he’s averaged 29 minutes, 10.7 points, 9.3 boards, 1.8 dimes, 2.2 steals, and 0.7 blocks per game, which has translated into top 25 production. The five threeecolas on five attempts? Yo, Ben Simmons. C’mon man!

Nothing average about this Joe, as he’s been a borderline top 100 player on the season. His main contribution is in the threeecola department, but he will contribute a handful of boards and dimes with a solid field goal percentage.

Just another mundane Rondae. He doesn’t play over 30 minutes and isn’t spectacular in any particular category, but he will do enough to at least make you say, meh. 10.1 points, 5.9 boards, 1.8 dimes, and 0.9 steals are what you can be not-excited about.

Continues to start and played 29 minutes. Has slowly been improving since he returned back to action. Chandler is getting the minutes and contributes in threeecolas, rebounds, assists, and blocks. The field goal percentage hasn’t been good lately (sub-40%), but he’s normally in the 45-46% range. He’s a low usage player, but over the past six games, he’s been a top 150 player.

Actually, yes it was because the Wizards stink. Regardless, over the past seven games, Kuzma has been a top 20 player. He’s improved in every statistical category, even in usage rate. Now, a lot of that is due to Brandon Ingram not playing, but he had been showing the improvement prior. When Ingram returns, things should tick back down, but the question is by how much?

The game was such a blowout that Moritz Wagner played 17 minutes and Svi Mykhailiuk played 28 minutes. Wagner provided 12 points, 3 rebounds, and 1 assist. Svi provided 5 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assist, and 2 steals. I like Mo, as he’s an athletic big that can shoot from outside. I’m hoping he can make a significant contribution later this season, but he missed a ton of time due to injury and may be too raw. I’m keeping my fingers crossed, though. Svi is a deadly outside shooter. He balled out in Summer League, but got punked a bit in preseason action.

Hey, man what’s up. So in my league (8 team h2h 9 cat) one guy just dropped a bomb by dropping Jarrett Allen to WW. It is kinda a big deal for somebody to drop a Center, especially who was drafted on draft night. Would you think I should run for it or am I good? My Squad:

De’Aaron Fox
Ben Simmons
SG/SF
Devin Booker
Donovan Mitchell
Bradley Beal
Joe Ingles
PF
Aaron Gordon
Jaren Jackson Jr.
Lauri Markannen
Larry Nance
C
Karl-Anthony Towns
Jusuf Nurkic
Myles Turner
Larry Nance comes to mind but he is a streamer and this week I even cannot put him in a line on a few days, because too many my PF and C are playing on the same day. So I can pick Allen and drop somebody else? What you think?
@Max: I can understand why someone would drop Allen, but you know your league better than I do.
I would pick up Allen and drop Nance. With Love and Thompson expected back relatively soon, Nance will likely be relegated to a bench role
@Son: what about drop jjj for Allen?
@Max: Naw
@Son: Another one: drop Ingles or not. He is so bad right now but I feel that he can pick it up, but for now, he is killing me. Low points on low percentages, even free throwers are soo low. What should I do?
@Max: I’d probably hold but depends on who you would replace him for

@Mr. Blast: AyO!! Thanks Mr. Blast! Naw, team looks solid. I wouldn’t drop anyone for the names you mentioned. Have a good one my man
Hey Son! Hope you had a nice weekend!
What is your take with the trade happened over the weekend? What roles you think each players will get? Thanks Son!
@McBonton: Thanks McBonton! Hope weekend was good for you as well.
As for the trade, not sure what Phoenix does. They have so many wings that my initial thought is that Oubre continues to come off the bench. Starters would be Melton/Booker/Bridges/Warren/Ayton. I’m not going to even talk about Rivers.
For Ariza, it’s a little more interesting. When the team is fully healthy, I think the starting lineup is Wall/Beal/Otto/Morris/Bryant. Ariza would come off the bench, but I still think he’d get plenty of minutes because the Wizs would go small with Morris at the 5, and Ariza and Otto at the forward spots. With Otto having some knee issues, then as long as he’s out, Ariza slides right into his spot.
Hey Son! So I dropped Lyles for Lumber Joe (I hope he goes HAM with em treys), and on tuesday morning I’m gon pick up one of these players to stream for the rest of the week:
Caroll, Bkn
Satoransky, Was
Joseph, Ind
Hood, Cavs
The above teams play 4 times this week, but will only start playing on tuesday. So what I’m trying to do is flip Mikal’s spot from having to play just 4 times (suns play monday), to 5. I’m leaning towards Hood or CoJo (if Reke were to miss the whole week due to his troublesome knee). And yea, I’m moving on from Mikal, KOJ is better than him and Josh, anyway. I can see KOJ finishing games with Ayton, Booker and Warren. What do you say ma man.
@I just wanna Kawhi: I’m good with the Lyles for Joe. Nice move.
I still like Mikal, though, and think Oubre remains in a bench role, but it’s very possible that your scenario plays out, so I don’t hate it. I just don’t think Oubre is that great, but we shall see.
I don’t like venturing to the Hood, so I refrain whenever possible. CoJo for me.
@Son: ugh yea, just too many wings for my Suns, and if KOJ does play the 4 when the Suns go small, how effective is he going to be. He’s neither a good shooter or a post up player…. I mean how the f are the suns going to divvy up the minutes among those players, Jesus. This is going to be wild, we still have to include Rivers into the picture. I already have G. Harris on the IR slot and he’s coming back soon, we could just hang onto Lumber Joe instead. Activate G. Harris, pick-up Kevin Huerter and then drop both Mikal and KOJ. I think I’d rather have Huerter!! Lol It makes me really wanna think that the only players we should roster from the Suns (in a 12T league) are Ayton, Booker and Warren..
@I just wanna Kawhi: Yeah, I concur. I think some more trades will be going down in PHX. You know my love for Huerter, so I’m with you there. I shall not talk about Rivers. Maybe you should change your name to Kawhi Me a Rivers. 🙂
@Son: lol. Rivers is bad, but your know my Suns! Remember that time when Canaan and Ryno used to soak up all the mins.. LMAO But yea, I think I’d rather have Huerter than Mikal… I’m going to do the switch soon!! Thanks buddy
@I just wanna Kawhi: The heat be making you guys do funny things down there!
Hope Huerter works out for you
@Son: yea buddy, we’re putting all our bets on the ‘Red Klay Thompson’. Hah I’ll update u
@I just wanna Kawhi: Let’s do it!
@I just wanna Kawhi:
Personally I have my eye on Satoransky..
As the Wizards have zero depth behind Wall/Beal.
@Mr. Blast: That works. I don’t have an issue with that.
Hey Son! Who do you prefer for the rest of the season between Lonzo, Sexton, Smart and Rondo? Thanks!
@James: Zo
Hey Son, in a re-draft league would you trade Jimmy Butler for Wall/Kanter? Purely based on value.
Thanks!
Yes
Joe Harris or Bobby Portis in a 9cat h2h? Are Portis’ low minutes because he’s coming back from injury? Thanks!
@vuccimane: Harris. I don’t see Portis getting significant run unless Markkanen gets hurt
Yo dawg. I know i asked you once before but…
I keep thinking maybe flipping Embiid for an underperforming first rounder might be the move. His playoff schedule sucks and we know he’s not the most durable guy…
Im thinking i could try for Giannis despite the FT% issue? Durable and provides big dude stats plus great playoff sched…ranked 16 on yahoo to Embiid’s 6….I dont know what you think? Hold the Big Fella or let someone else sex him? I had this same feeling the week before Caris Laverted himself into the ground…
Me:
Teague
Fox
P George
Gary “made of porcelain” Harris
Will “hurry the EFF up” Barton
LMAO
Embiid
Brolo
Danny Green
BogBog
Pascal “haha someone dropped him” Siakam
Clarkson
Hart
Bullock (Streamer)
IL: Xmas Boogie
This team keeps looking good on paper to me and yet i keep losing…
@Court Vision: Naw. Leaves you way too thin at C. With that said, always go with your gut. You wanna go down swinging with your beliefs
@Son: True that. Thanks for talking down from the ledge.
@Court Vision: Ha! Whew…
Yea buddy I think this is it, the nail in the coffin: Mikal played a total of 33 mins but was only able to contribute 7p, 5r, 2a, 1s. Missed all attempts from beyond the arc. This is with Warren and Booker healthy, and with the insertion of KOJ and Rivers in the lineup soon it’s not looking good for the rookie. I’m making the switch, either for CoJo or Huerter, both of which you gave your blessing. Thanks man! Let’s do this!
@I just wanna Kawhi: I’m with you. Huerter baby!!!
