Discussion 2023-2024 NBA RDT Dream Team Discussion: GW23 Weds 10th April 9:00am AEST

[The Banker]

753 - 176th

Pretty much planned out 1 premium, 1 fake and 2 rookie shuffles on a boost. Don't think I'm going to deviate.

Ins will be Doncic, Thomas, Johnson and Strus.

Hard part is working out exactly who's going. Pretty much every combination of outs can get there.

 

[tso]

OUT Curry, Mitchell, Thompson HOU, Pritchard
IN Doncic, McCollum, Thomas, Miller

Forgot it's 3 trades and 4 with a boost (In NBL mode )

Giving Scoot another chance with 4 games.
Get Greek in next week.

7 x 4 games
2 x 3 games

 

[shockmaster]

So 741 got me rank 259-I can work with that.

Pritchard to Thomas extremely obvious trade #1.

Probably have to get rid of Booker as can't afford to wait til Tuesday to see if he's playing. Would also love to get rid of at least one of Toppin/Amen.

Don't have the cash for Booker to Doncic unless I do a downgrade, is Jokic to Duren crazy?

 

[Jay Sea]

Considering this for trades, thoughts?

 

[Connoisseur]

Score: 763
Overall Rank: 116

Henderson on field was poor but otherwise a solid showing all round.

Current trades:
Out: K Leonard, C Cunningham, L Black and S Henderson
In: C Thomas, L Doncic, K George and B Miller


Trading SGA alternative and keeping Cunningham is
Out: K Leonard, SGA, L Black and S Henderson
In: C Thomas, B Miller, S Barnes/B Simmons and L Doncic

$30k shy of Struss over Miller, if Simmons is selected over Barnes.

 

[Swipa]

Shocking scores today…ending the week with SGA 5 into Scoot 1 into Wemby 8

It’s official now. Scoot is just too much of a spud even for the bench

 

[mattdickster]

Weird how some things play out ....
- like the SGA call for instance .... great player though ...

I see you went against SGA and fielded sharpe over scoot too!

Forgot about Miller. Got him instead of Wallace.

 

[xanderdom]

you & a handful of others (ranked relatively high) all faded Scoot onto the bench. Made a huge difference - each extra point he scored would have shrunk the difference between your squads & the chasing pack. Well done! (Crying playing him)

At least I faded him to my bench in RDT. To all those who care, I gambled on Scoot producing a decent score in Sleeper. He gave me a scorching hot 1.05 to finish up the round. 🔥

Leaves me with fours everywhere bar Jokic once Durant is traded to Tatum in RD3. Jokic could be traded to Giannis and I could trade Rose/Miller to a player on 4 sub 9-10 million if I wish to bench a Thomas/Thompson type.

Eg: RD3:
Out: Durant (via B Simmons), Jokic (via Wemby and Williams) and ?
In: J Tatum, Giannis and ?

PG: L Doncic, C Cunningham
SG: S Curry, ?
C: Wemby
SF: Giannis, Tatum
PF: B Simmons, Chet

 

[Moranther]

I'd keep all of them for now ...

Surely I need Thomas… or do prices not increase until Week 3 like SuperCoach?

SCS group / league participants round 1 update

- I'm only showing a subset of relevant players due to screen size (but am tracking quite a few more)

I'm also not showing two of my leagues due to one player not being a SCS member (that I know of) out of respect for him ...
- an excellent player though that has been part of our leagues before so I technically class them as one of ours ..
- those two teams are currently ranked 1st and 3rd overall

So that brings me to our other 10 leagues (I don't own all of them by the way):

- Our 20 team leagues are ranked 1st and 2nd by league size ..
- Our 12 team league is ranked 1st by league size ..
- Our 10 team leagues are ranked ranked 2nd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th and 9th 10th by league size

Our overall league rankings despite the league size are:

- 2nd, 4th, 5th, 6th 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th and 12th

Why are people selling SGA?

 

[Miller is a Steele]

Leaning towards - SGA, Murray, Scoot > Doncic, Strus, Thomas. $3.49m in the bank. 7 on 4 plus Wemby and Chet on 3. All bench players on a 4. Considering fielding Thompson (on 4) over one of Wemby/Chet but undecided

Hoping to do something next round like:
Jokic > Giannis (via Wemby)
Durant > Tatum
Bane > Maxey (via Strus)
Boost if a rookie correction is needed.

 

[Dazza]

Thomas price will go up, after he plays one more game, which will be at the end of this round coming

I feel like it’s almost to the point you can’t fade joker even on a three

 

[Connoisseur]

By the time RD3 comes, it will likely end up that I deal with two or three of Cunningham, Curry, etc around early since RD4 could be tricky to navigate and that I am not game to trade Jokic but playing around with a few possibilities now.

I like the money it frees though now I look at it, kd joker cade to a maxey Tatum Giannis type set up. Makes me anxious he will go 300

Why are people selling SGA?

Probably game maximisation - with someone you’re paying 18m for you would ideally like 4 games out of them. With the number of trades we are afforded each round we can always trade out then trade back in

Cap management also vital (if you free up cap) as once half these rookies have sailed at their base price there may not be much re-positioning available

 

[tso]

Why are people selling SGA?

Doncic is a must have especially with 3x4 games and someone has to go.
