Toyed around with if I can get a 4 gamer instead of Wallace… only one of interest is Krejci and his value seems to have gone down with the Hawks getting players back. Pretty strong around Wallace however and the 2 Thunder players can become handy $15m x2 next week:

Keep an eye on KAT ...
- missed the last two game with a sprained thumb ....

Tatum is also dealing with a sore shoulder
- not that I'd talk anyone out of trading him in ... just something to aware of (see link below)

Couldn’t settle on an option so ended up grabbing A Thompson (HOU) and E Gordon, with Johnson moving back on the field.

Thompson solid in the end over a Portland option but disappointing to miss a game to not fully capitalise. Had to keep one of Towns, Hart and Durant and defaulted to who I felt had the highest ceiling to be held long term for a loss of 50+ points with the cash to have been invested to push Johnson to the bench as planned and costing an opportunity to push into the top 20.

SGA, Jokic and Giannis to be kept but the rest of the onfield options on the trade block.

Cheers. KAT is a hot watch, but the information I've been reading today is positive. I also have my best bench cover for him.

Lucky I have young children, I should be up around the New York game time to check in on both.

What a rough week and this one looks even more brutal coming up, this is the round where those who prepared for it and, of course, get very lucky, can make huge strides. I thought I'd done the preparing only for that preparation to be more than cancelled out with terrible luck :LOL:

I've honestly got no idea this week, time to scramble.

My trades are:
OUT - Karl-Anthony Towns, Zaccharie Risacher & Anfernee Simons
IN - Adem Bona, Jayson Tatum & LaMelo Ball

All 3 players that I have traded out are injured. I saw that Tatum is carrying a shoulder injury, but I searched the Web and the indications are that he will play.

Thoughts appreciated.

My planning ahead has not worked out at all. I have $5m in the bank and I don't know who to spend it on to improve my team.
So, I focused on setting up for Week 14.

Currently:
Out: Westbrook, Johnson and Thompson
In: S Dinwiddie, Henderson and M Bridges

Towns out alternative involves Garland and Okongwu over Dinwiddie and Henderson.

For the first team:
- Dinwiddle v Henderson for me
- I almost grabbed Dinwiddle 1 or 2 rounds ago ... still have scorch marks from him previously though ...
- I can't see Collier in that team though ...

For the Second team:
- Okongwu v Powell / Avdija / Daniels etc for me ...
- Edit: that is the team I'd personally run with if Thompson is right to go

Thanks. Have edited the post as I had a few plans under consideration but couldn’t afford Collier and Garland and missed removing Collier from that equation.

I missed the boat on Collier ... I think @KLo30 was the one who got him early ...
- if he was $1.5 mil cheaper I'd be all over him ...

My issue with bringing him in now (right team, right role etc) is that from previous research he gets most of his points from assists ...
- that is great as it shows that he can make plays ... but gets nothing if they can't finish them ...
