My main concern is do I start Knecht or Boston, I'm leaning to Knecht, based on the positive comments I have read in this Forum.

Coin toss for me after looking at their respective draws ....
- could make a case either way ... but for me Knecht has the better matchups and gets the nod

So think I’m now at Micic and Ighodaro in… I basically have 7m for a PF/C if I go Micic and Ighodaro seems to be trending up?

Could also go Council and Yves…

Boost to go Wells to Mathurin and move Boston to the bench or start Boston, keep Wells and save cash/boosts?
Time has passed for Mathurin. Saving a couple of million could match his production or paying a few million more for players with a higher ceiling.

Upcoming schedule of 2,4,3,4 after this round and feel jumping off next round to avoid his two for current owners would be the way to go for a high variance player/shooter and switch to a more consistent player.

29 points lost going Jokic one week early and not trusting KAT's calf contusion. Could've been a lot worse, but I'm glad I don't need to move mountains to fund Jokic this week.

OUT: Harden, Black, Sarr
IN: KAT, Micic, Jones

Cashing out on Sarr now seeing as Edey should be back by end of this week or start of the next according to Grizz coach Jenkins.

Hoping for a bounce back week, and also hoping Doc Rivers realises he needs to start McCain over Oubre and get him more involved if they want to stand any kind of chance. Lol

Perhaps I should start Knecht over McCain seeing as I don't trust Doc...

Alternative:
Out: Harden, Vucevic, Williams
In: Micic, Jokic and Sabonis

Likely to prefer this option to defend against the possibility of low rounds from Williams and Harden. Feel that Sabonis and Micic can hover around that 170-200 range whereas best case for the Harden and Williams duo would be around 180-200. Grab Sabonis for the captaincy option on three next round and can flick to Towns when he goes on two or trade Davis next round to Towns. Bench rookies and Mathurin will be on the chopping block next round.

I’ve seen Jones twice now… any reason he is of interest?

Is it just a cash thing?

He's currently Sac's backup PF/C option and has played 19+ mins in his last 3. Stats aren't groundbreaking, but I don't mind the load up of a Kings asset seeing as they're 1 of 2 teams with 3 games next round.

7 BE this week, 19 projected points. Jones to Sarr cash out nets me $4.6m, so he can be a long term cash cow hold and I just hope his usage only improves from here.

The up and down season continues, this time an up week which is nice.

Current trades thoughts:
Out- Harden, Collins, McCain(or any other bench rookie)
In- Joker, Micic, Council IV( or any other rookie)

Need the third trade rookie to facilitate Joker in.

Alright, I’ll follow suit here then. Cheers!

I know some people are planning on loading up on SAC and NOP for the two-game round but surely people aren't playing SAC or NOP rookies over a midranger on 2 games? Would there be much advantage?

Nah I think that advantage only applies to Sabonis, Fox and maybe even Monk. I'd also avoid overloading on SAC too considering they have a 2 game round in rd9.

I wouldn’t play a rookie (Yves/Jones/maybe even BB?) over say Hartenstein, Mathurin, Miller etc for one extra game, unless the path is obvious to a decent score.

You could maybe do it if you haven’t got much else to field in a spot - Id probably do it over say a McCain type - It’s better as a guard play as the PF/C lines are stacked for talent and scoring.

ill be looking at playing SAC & NOP rooks who may score 25-55 on 3 games over midpricers who may score 30-60 on 2 games
will allow extra funds to be spent on premos
eg SGA over harden or Jalen johnson over mathurin
