Was slightly confused looking at the schedule seeing all 2's at the beginning of december.
Turns out it's the in season play off's week so becomes a bye week for the comp i presume ?

I have a similar quandary to you @Connoisseur. I am leaning Mitchell and Barnes, as although I prefer Giannis over all of them, Derozan feels like a clear 4th (given positions etc).
I wish we wouldn’t have to pick shooting guards. :ROFLMAO: Initially I was happy with Barnes but looking at the captaincy options has me now leaning towards Giannis. Hopefully not too large a gap between DeRozan and Mitchell.

Doncic, SGA, Holmgren and Thompson all have 2 games following week, are you planning on trading them all out the following week, what is your bench like anyone that can start in that week
Yes, i did realize this. Still thinking trades over.
Barnes is in the conversation along with DeRozen and Banchero. Might even keep Davis.

SGA stays as he will be my C for this week.

G'day lads! Pumped for another week! Lots of negative BEs this week... who's the cheapie pick/s of the bunch?
That was a quick watchlist I put together whilst waiting for lockout to open yesterday. Might have left a couple off, and Sasser was a last week pick. Daniels should probs be on there but I own him already, and I had missed Gilyard.

Well I would like to ditch Ziaire but nobody with a negative BE is in PF. I'm more thinking about a cash cow that could potentially cover Chet next week but I don't think that'll work.

I'm playing Daniels but I'm forced too. Majority would be bench only. What position are you chasing a starter?
I'm in the same boat, which is why I am considering Daniels vs Hawkins. Hawkins has been playing well, but I am unsure of his consistency. Played brilliantly the other day, but how many of those will he get? Where as Daniels will be far more consistent.

I think it has to be trying to get up to cover Chet, but then being able to switch back to SF. Markkanan and Barnes types were the ones I was looking at. Markkanan has a really good fixture run that I don't think it's a waste, but it takes some planning to try to get to a $16mil player

Best BEs are Jaime Jaquez Jr and Gilyard... which do we think is a better cow? I'll trade out Amen Thompson (we agree or will he be back?)

Don't want a top player to sit on the bench just to cover Chet next week though

Nah, no way. I'm looking to do something like that next week.

I just don't think there's great fieldable rookie options that even on 3's can match Holmgrens average over 2 games on what he's done so far.

Hence trying to target a premium that could put 5-10 on him plus plays an extra game.

I might just try and get a midranger for Ziaire that has four games next week (and will make cash) to cover Chet... someone around 7-9mil
