What I've learned... the more you plan, the worse it feels when the luck trumps the planning. On a positive, I'm pretty sure a wildfire costing multiple games is the worst "pure luck" fantasy outcome I've had. I've heard of not picking players because the team has bad management/coaching but I'd never considered expanding that to the entire state they live in 
Watch, next week I'll actually throw a spanner captain out there against Jokic and he'll dominate after two weeks of bailing at the last second because I have small stones. This week I just didn't trust Giannis to play 4 any more than Jokic!
I don't think any of my trade ideas this week were any good, so that's making my bad decisions seem better at least
George being good today still stings, I really wanted that pick! I guess better he lets me know he's missing so I can pick someone else he probably outscores anyway though!

If I was Derrick White, I would be too embarrassed to collect my paycheque this week.
Dud - Derrick White
The slump has reached new levels of brutality. Derrick White just couldn’t find the basket in this game. He was as ice-cold as ice-cold can be.
It got so bad early on that he was yanked from the game in favor of Pritchard just a few minutes into the first quarter. As soon as he was out of the game, Boston got back into the swing of things.
White will be fine. He’s been too consistent over the years not to bounce back. But right now, it’s rough, as he was effectively usurped by Pritchard for starter minutes in this one.

Kicking myself on him and Green, I liked both but for some reason I had Houston down as a 3 gamer this week so ruled them out. Amen especially so.
Luckily for me I've got Anfernee Simons to make up for them. He was a great pick after one game last week, been all downhill since then!
Sharpe only marginally better as the late pivot change from George.
To be fair, none of the guys I really considered have done much, one of those weeks where it was just how badly I could do rather than the wrong options
