Discussion 2024-2025 NBA RDT Discussion: Tues 26 Nov 11am

I'd imagine the single biggest factor on the 4 game weeks is how many games are missed, would expect there's a much higher chance of players missing a game with the 4 game week than the 3 the way players are rested in the modern game. Obviously hurts double if you took a slightly inferior player for that extra game.

Another one is potentially the early In Season Tournament (IST) games ... tomorrows slate is one of them ...
- some teams may target it and others couldn't care less ...

There are also new rules for All-Star players missing games ...
- complicated but honestly don't think teams care about them ...

Also new criteria on the number of games played to be eligible for awards ....

Yeh you gotta remember NBA teams aren’t looking at just the “weekly schedule”
Not all 4 game weeks are equal
Back ended previous week and front ended 4 game week can become 6 games in 9 nights type thing.
That’s where @Tails schedule planner is so handy.

Nicely explained ....

Have added "SCS Oldies" run by @kennychao to my spreadsheet ....

- was ranked 2nd of the 10 team league sizes last round ...
- still looking strong this round ...

Had no idea this league was ranked this high! Good stuff fellas (unsure who exactly is in the league tho) haha

I know who is in it ....

- after the IST tournament if still up there I will include it in my weekly updates ..

 

[Killerbees]

Coin flip and took Alvarado over Naji Marshall… not a great start 🤣

In my head we both made the right choice

😂

 

[Killerbees]

Had both Vucevic and Sengun in my sights but passed due to a lack of DPP ...
- wanted to keep the option of Jokic straight back in open ...
- how to do that is complicated but doable ...

I was tossing up sabonis sengun or vuc had enough cash for sabonis was my deciding factor

6/10 teams currently ranked in the top 30

 

[xanderdom]

Great week last round. I was tempted to hold Jokic even for just a 2-gamer lol

OUT: Strawther, Holland, Hawkins, Jokic
IN: Powell, Sengun, Boston Jr, Carrington

Since last night, I've toyed with so many options and somehow landed in a position that's netted $8.1m ITB. My only regret was using a boost despite correcting some rookies, but the panic was real at 11:30 lol!

Tatum is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Hawks due to a left ankle sprain, Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site reports.

☹️
Do we get the bench player as he scores 0 lol

 

[BallDontLie]

Harden woeful again yesterday. Should have just used a boost and traded him but was scared he might do a Jalen Johnson and punish me

Pretty sure you don't from memory on how it works. Still better than a negative score I guess...

 

[mattdickster]

Should have paid more attention to opposition for my captain options.
Centers against the Nets are going off
KAT plays them twice this week
Could be massive

 

[Dazza]

Traded Suggs out because he shot bricks all last week, today 7/7

 

[Dazza]

Haven’t got Dyson Daniels, he is having some game👍

did you extra disaster it with trade out being Daniels?

 

[The Night Manager]

Glad I held Dićk, albeit bench. Smashing his b/e in the first game.

Why do you always single out the most negative thing you can think of and choose to share that with us all?
