The Nets were mired in a two-game losing streak, dropping games to the Hawks and Wizards no less. Then he heard the news that Kevin Durant would miss the next four games due to COVID protocols. Frustrated, Nash stood up from the couch, heel kicked the soccer ball conveniently laying on the floor, then began heading it against the wall. At first, it was a slow rhythmic pace….thump…..thump…..thump
Then thump..thump..thump..thump..thumpthumpthumpthumpthump. The woodpeckers in the neighborhood all flocked to the noise and gawked in amazement at the display of pecking dexterity. Then he heard it. “Honey, rewind that. And turn up the volume.”
If it worked for them, why not give it a try. Nash immediately set up a Zoom call with Mike D’Antoni, Ime Udoka, Amar’e Stoudemire, Jacque Vauhn, Adam Harrington, Jordan Ott, Tiago Splitter, and Ryan Forehan-Kelly. “Gentlemen,” he announced, “We are starting Jarrett on Tuesday.” There were mixed responses. Some believed that Jarrett Allen should have been starting all along, while others thought going to Jared meant that one was cheap and/or had poor or unsophisticated taste in jewelry. After hours of ferocious debating, compromises were made and the starting lineup for Tuesday consisted of Kyrie Irving, Bruce Brown (who was in his camp?), Taurean Prince, Jeff Green, and Allen, but it was Jarrett who blinged the brightest of them all.

Kyrie was an animal from the get-go in this one and was instrumental in pacing the Nets to a 21-point lead after one quarter. It’s too bad that the Jazz couldn’t make any music or his night could’ve been earth-shattering. Kyrie had a 30.9 usage rate last night, and in games without Durant and Dinwiddie this season, he’s garnering a 31.8 usage rate. Durant will miss the next three games against the 76ers, Grizzlies, and Thunder.

Only played 21 minutes due to the blowout but had a 40 usage rate while on the court! Chicks like buckets, not passes to teammates. I respect it. Without Durant and Dinwiddie, LeVert has a team-leading 34 usage rate. He came off the bench, so Nash is going to keep him leading the second unit as long as one of Kyrie or Durant is playing.

On the season, Mitchell is outside the top 100. The main culprits being the 38% shooting from the field and 77% shooting from the line. Both of those numbers will improve, but I don’t think Mitchell gets much higher than finishing as a top 50-ish player come season’s end.

Currently the 33rd player on a per-game basis, AD has been a top 15 player over the past three games and is slowly creeping up back to the top 3 where he belongs.

PPPPPSSSSSYYYYYCCCHHHHHHH!!!!! I love it! It doesn’t hurt that I’m a Lakers fan. With that said, I’ve always admired him as a basketball fan, from his days at St. Vincent-St. Mary High School. He was literally a man amongst boys and would produce insane highlights, but what I appreciated were the passes and interactions with his teammates. He knew he was a basketball God, but always tried to be one of the boys and lift up their games too. You hear that noise in the background? Yeah, I purchased mini violins that are being played by nano-drones that are floating in the air.

Dennis was a menace to opposing teams early in the season. Now, he’s being a menace to managers who roster him. Over the past week, he’s been a top 200 player. He can score, provide tres, and dish out some dimes, but the shooting efficiency is poor and he doesn’t provide much in the defensive cats.

Got his third start in a row and played 29 minutes. The percentages have been awful. Like free throw shooting is the same as the field goal percentage awful. Now, 60% is great for field goal percentage, but terrible for free throw percentage, so net net, bad. How about at 50%? Turrable. Now we get to Clarke’s numbers on the season. Whatever you’re thinking, go lower. Yes, lower. He’s shooting 43% from the field and 44% from the line. For perspective, he shot 60% from the field and 72% from the line last season. Everything gonna be alright. If not, then we are going to have to pair him with Lewis and explore.

In 34 minutes as he got his second start of the season. For you inquiring minds, Juancho’s career-high is 27 points. No offense to Juancho, as I’ve always had a soft spot for him and thought he could be a sleeper if he started and got the minutes this season, but this performance says more about the Nuggets defense than anything. They are dead-last in defensive efficiency.

Snitches get stitches unless they play the Nuggets, then the red carpet gets rolled out and the cake is gotten and eaten.

That is the best feeling in the world. Too bad it didn’t happen often for me but I will always treasure the times it did. Mills is a baller and can get buckets with the best of them.

Kawhi is the number 12 player on a per-game basis right now. Over the past seven seasons, he’s finished as a top 10 player in five of them. One of those years, he only played nine games while in the other one he finished as the 15th player. He’s going to be fine. The craziest stat is that he’s only turning the ball over 1.2 times per game while garnering a 30.8 usage rate. SkyNet obviously values efficiency and limiting mistakes.

Got the start and played 38 minutes because Paul George is nursing an ankle injury. Man, he had so many open looks in this game and couldn’t convert, which is uncharacteristic because he’s a career 40% shooter from downtown. He does offer some playmaking ability but hasn’t really figured out his role yet in LA. I had some optimism entering the season, but if he’s not dishing out dimes or hitting tres, he’s useless because he doesn’t provide the D. All the ladies in LA are sad now.

Coming into this game, White was more like Mr. Black Hole, as he was shooting 37% from the field. That wasn’t going to continue all season long. The Theory of Shooting Dynamics said it was so. White is a points, tres, boards, and dimes player who won’t contribute much in the defensive cats.

The Lord had enough of hanging with the peasants, so he finally decided to hang out in his Manor and provide the delectables that we are so accustomed to. He’s a top 100 player on the season, but over the past four years, with three different teams, he was a top 40 player in each season. My money is on him finishing closer to top 50 than top 100 come season’s end.

True BFFs as they match stat lines on a nightly basis. McCollum is the number six player on the season, while Dame is 36th. Picture a see-saw. At some point one end hits the ground and stops the momentum, then it bounces off the ground and moves in the other direction. One side goes up, while the other goes down.

1. Rubio has been god awful. You see any resurgence or is he a clear drop for – Melton, dieng, KPJ, campazzo
2. Thoughts on Okoro? Think he’ll have life w Cleveland being decimated
The playing time has been inconsistent. It depends on if you need dimes or not.
Okoro is getting plenty of run, so he’s viable. His usage is super low so don’t expect much scoring, but he can provide a little something something in every cat

Hachimura, Patrick Williams or Richaun Holmes.

Jarret Allen should be starting over De andre. De andre is trash now a days.
i cant seem to find anything on nicolas batum in search. perhaps i cant spell his name correctly lol
WOuld you drop either delon wright or lou williams for nicolas batum?
Agreed on Allen over DJ
Probably Delon but Batum’s minutes will come down when Morris returns
What’s happening Son !?!
I had the luxury of drafting Delon Wright and Whiteside in the late rounds and thought I won the draft because of it. Fast forward to where we are now. I have lost leagues before because I was not patient with players and my patience is wearing thin in these two. Definitely not players I want in the opponents hands if they are playing their best.
Thoughts ? Time to cut and run ? Worth holding on to for a while ?
Whiteside looks like a drop. Holmes has taken over that center rotation.
Wright? I lean drop but I really have no idea what’s going on in Detroit and why he’s in the proverbial dog house
Great work as usual Son!
Trade question for a 10-team h2h points league: do you think trading kahwi for Tatum is a good move or nah? I was thinking Tatum would be more reliable to play every game come playoff time, but idk if that should really move the needle one way or another. Thanks for the help

Weak in boards, dimes, blocks, and fg%

JA Is such a monster. I always assumed he didn’t get the minutes because coaches knew something we didn’t about his build or fatigue, but if all of them sat on this…ouch.
Anyway, SIR SON! Question time: Would you buy on Harrison Barnes for his current scoring and rebounding output?
I play in a 12 team, 11 cat league (standard 9 plus OFF REB and DEF REB); with the focus on boards, I want to offer Donte Div for HB. Good move of fool’s gold?

Depends on your squad
Inconsistent start to the season but trying to stay patient in my h2h, 9 cat league. Scoring and threes are poor despite having Harden and Beal. FT, FG % and low turnovers have helped. My team below for context:
Harden, Paul, Bledsoe
Beal, Bog Bog,
Barton, Hunter,
Horford, Keldon
Ayton, JV, Holmes, Tristan
IR: JJJ
One streamer spot
WW: B Lopez, Ingles, Bertans, Melton, Bane, Huerter, Nunn, Bismack, Bey,
1. Tristan actually a streamer for this week’s matchup too. Please pick top two to replace him from WW list.
2. Horford has not been very helpful and still has some brand value. Hold or trade? If trade, about what level player would be a reasonable offer….Draymond? Nance? Rozier?
Comments on how to fix this team is welcomed.
Brook Lopez
I don’t mind trading. Depends on who you get back. Value is relative.
Your weakest cats are tres and blocks. Strengths are points, dimes, and percentages.
Avg in boards and steals.
I’d use that as a guide for which direction you want to go in. Once you figure that out, then targeting players will be easier
Hi Son,
Is there a damn thing I can do to save my team? It’s been ravaged by injuries and guys underperforming. 9-cat H2H.
G: Irving, CP3, M. Beasley, Burks, Tyus Jones (streamer), Kemba (IL)
F: Clarke, Plumlee, Justin Jackson, Otto Porter, MPJ
C: Brook Lopez, LMA(O), Zubac, KAT (IL)
I had been pretty consistent with %s and turnovers in the first few weeks, that has been flipped a little bit this week. I’m just getting destroyed in any other category, even with streamers I can keep up. Anyone you think I should move to get better somewhere? Thanks
Without KAT and Kemba, it looks bad. Only good cats for you are blocks and percentages.
Only thing you can do is stream like a mad man. Do you have limits on pickups?
Yeah, only 4 per week. Completely handcuffed, but hoping I can stay afloat until KAT comes back.
Gotcha. Take advantage of every streaming spot you can and look to see what the market is on your top dogs
Thanks Son!
This may be a stupid question but what side do you like right now?
Giannis for Booker and Porter
Giannis
Otto Porter sorry!!
SON, who do u like more moving forward
Haliburton or Slo Mo?
Halliburton
Here’s the squad
Guards: LaVine, Sexton, Wall, SGA, Beasley, Ross

Who do I drop when KAT comes back?
Points league (Points, Rebounds, Assists, Blocks, Steals, Turnovers, Double Doubles, Triple Doubles)
How many points for each category?
1 each and 5 for Triple Doubles and Double Doubles
Beasley
Hi Son, two questions:
1- would you rather have Harden or Lillard this year? Something seems off with Harden, or at least he’s not contributing like in past years.
2- would you send a cheap Haliburton and Bazley for Harden this year? I’m not convinced it’s worth it, Haliburton has been great and so has Bazley with an occasional off night. Even excluding the keeper potential, Harden hasn’t seemed like a top 10 guy and I’d need an improvement in points and 3s. I have the offer on the table.
Thanks!
Probably Harden but I wouldnt hate if you chose Lillard.
I’d take Harden but go with your gut.
Thanks for the extremely quick response, much appreciated.

What’s up Son, hard to reach you these days 😀 Quick q – My Coby and Brooks for his Donovan Mitchell. Trying to buy low, What u think?
I am average in pts and tres and punt ast, so Mitchel will a bit increase my pts, tres and stl.
10T H2H 9cat
Ha! Sup, sleeper!
Sure, if you can do it
Reddish and Dotson
Hey
I am top 3 in a 12 team h2h 10 cat league. I am down on blocks and steals. Would you trade hield/ 2 2nds for pj Washington and a 4th and 5th Rd pick?
Washington is also protected
Sounds good
14 team, 9cat H2H
Would you trade Lowry and JV for Westbrook and Ayton?
Just going for best overall players.
What’s context?
At this point I’m not sure what direction I should be going with my team. My thought was to try and trade to acquire most talent I can. You had Lowry and Westbrook ranked pretty close but Ayton as a fairly big upgrade to JV.
Here’s my team:
PG- Paul
SG – Terrence Ross
G- Lowry
SF- Oubre
PF- Boucher
F – Crowder
C – KAT
UTIL – Schroder
BN – Lonnie Walker, Dort, Delon Wright, Redick
IL- Kevin Porter Jr.
IL – Time Lord
Looks rough. Your strengths are tres, steals, and ft%.
You’re weak in points and dimes.
You’re super weak in boards, blocks, and fg%.
So would you do that trade?
I would
Hii Son,
My Squad
– FVV, fournier, elf payton, tyus jones, rubio
– Tobias, Clarke,
– AD, vuce, KP, horford
H2H, 9cat, 14 teams
My question :
1. Would you trade KP for Ayton ??
2. Would you drop someone of my squad for FA ??
FA list : cam johnson, g.hill, dort, josh rich, d.wright, ingles, g.harris, walker IV, p.williams, portis
Thanks Son
It depends what you want to do. Your two weakest cats are tres and fg%. If you get rid of KP, then your tres suffer more but the fg% takes a massive jump with ayton
