I'm going two down but will ease up ... once I'm content with my on field team ...
- first rookie swap though this week ... is that patience ... I'd say no !!
Usually I'd say that early points are hard to chase down ...
- to me this is s a cash generation year and it'll be hard to build a "Prem" team

906 Tatum
Tatum C 116x2, Giannis 114, Trae 113, Cunningham 96, D*ck 90, SGA 79, Braun 72, Edey 56, Ivey 54.
Up 19 to 68th without Jokic and saved a boost, happy.
Every player I fielded last week has 4 again, so I'm likely to just fix up some bench issues. All the premiums performed okay with the exception being SGA who was underwhelming, but he'll stay with 4/4. Edey a little disappointing and I'll probably fill C1 with a non-rookie from Round 4, but probably stays for 1 week. Ivey also poor as a trade in.
At this stage:
Castle > Davion Mitchell/Wallace
Ivey > Coulibaly
George > Agbaji
Really want to take a punt on Alvarado who had a minutes increase with McCollum injured, but going for Agbaji instead which maximises flexibility. Would've had to field one of Mitchell/Alvarado/Hawkins over a Braun/D*ck/Coulibaly every week, which may not be terrible with Coulibaly on a 3 this week, but not good in the future. Agbaji theoretically does well without Barnes himself anyway. Means 4 rookies on field this week. Coulibaly included in that 4, but I believe in the breakout and see him scoring well above the other rookies. No boost at this stage again. Backing in Risacher to be a good rookie. Has shown signs, just inconsistent.

I'm all at sea....not sure where to go from here
Trading Doncic to make stuff happen. Need his coin to fund the major surgery required for my team
If Jalen Johnson can go 130+ and be the second highest scorer for the week after I trade him, I'm expecting Doncic to go close to 200 this week
Doncic > Harden
Scoot > Agbaji
Sheppard > Wells
Hawkins > KAT
Don't know much about Wells but I'll be fielding him this week

No complaints from me whatsoever - what could've been with a full run of Barnes, Banchero and Dyson! Paolo had such a scorcher of a game to start last week, I'm bummed to see him sidelined like this.
Starting rd3 with $1.40m ITB and Barnes/Banchero must trades.
OUT: Barnes, Banchero, Dyson
IN: KAT, Harden, Gradey D
I wasn't sure about the Dyson trade out until I played around with a Holland trade out in his place. Him being at the top of my must correct list, I managed to make the same trade ins, but it left me with $38k ITB... Furthermore, I'm locked out of playing Black on field with this move despite a +15 (1,099) projection with a Giddey, Dyson, Harden, Cade backcourt.
Last year, things never went right for me when I carried less than ~$500k into a following round in this format, so $38k is a joke lol. Aside from cash gen, I think maximising player price and on-field-points ratio and carrying at least $1-$2m into every round will be just as important for sustainability. Might be obvious to some, but it's a lesson I'm taking onboard this year.
Crossing my fingers Harden can play majority of this stretch! Only one b2b in the next 3 weeks and that's this week between Kings and Raptors.
Good luck all!
