Discussion 2024-2025 NBA RDT Discussion: GW16 TUES 11th FEB 10:00am AEST

[Jay Sea]

But if you join in and start flailing your arms and screaming, then maybe we might draw some attention to the sinking ship and we can all be rescued before it is too late.

Just wait until AFL season starts when these sort of cases lacking any emotional intelligence, accountability for decision making, unrealistic expectations and so on multiply with no end in sight.

 

[Bermi]

I have experienced a similar run of non-players as @Dazza, but this week has been different, with even my LaVine playing in some games. I hope that my luck, as well as Dazza's and all the other SCS Fantasy Coaches' luck, continues to improve.

1118 Jokic Capt.
A. Thompson & M. Bridges to play.

 

[wogitalia]

5 missed games, with 4 from 2 of my 3 most unique hurts.

Still not an awful week overall, just a shame for what could have been after correctly trading Giannis (more luck than good management).

Definitely a spanner in the plans for next week as the trust issues definitely getting wild

Hopefully Bridges as my only relevant guy tomorrow can go well. Obviously a bonus if CC, Maxey, Thompson and Walter(bench) can also score well but they're all in basically every side so not as important as Bridges who unfortunately (for me) has Ball back to ruin his good run.

Going to be about half a dozen in the gun tomorrow for trades!

 

[Dazza]

Giannis will be out through the all star break
Was going to trade him out anyway

 

[tso]

1214 Jokic x4
36 SI
5 MG

 

[I am FT]

Giannis will be out through the all star break
Was going to trade him out anyway

That's annoying, I decided to keep him (assuming on 3) because he had the 5 next week. Waste of time that was

 

[I am FT]

My run in the eliminator may come to an end with Jason from this site as my opponent. GL bro.

 

[Connoisseur]

 

[Dazza]

1107
99 overall
Down 5 spots
Giannis a no show and Cunningham and Edwards missed 1 game

Lost my eliminator

 

[The Night Manager]

Yay, finally stopped the month long ranking slide Shame about Giannis, would have been a decent score otherwise, but then again most would have been in the same boat. I did seriously consider sideways trading him to Wemby but didn't think it was worth it for just 1 extra game as my gut feel was that he's just being rested. The wrong end of 50/50 calls starting to add up.

 

[Herbie66]

Finally something decent (for me)

1137 Jokic

Jokic 182
Thompson 138
Maxey 135
Cunningham 105 - 25% ownership so missed game hurt many

McDaniels 98
Okungwu 98

3 gamers did well enough

Tatum 72
Hart 66
Herro 61

Going to clean up the bench this week to try and get some 💰 happening

Fully realise I won't end up full ultra premium so will just make do for the rest of the season and rotate players according to schedule

Seen a few coaches who had no cover at all for Antetokounmpo so that is very tough

 

[Jay Sea]

Had another productive week - 1254 despite holding Antet.

This moves me to 17th.

Looking at changing things up a little:
Antet, OO and Thompson to Booker, Edwards and Zion.

2 with perfect 3 week runs, plus Bridges and SGA with perfect 3 week runs, gives me scope to move things around.

Booker and Edwards reduce uniques in my Eliminator matchup. They don't hold SGA, Wemby or CC.

Will I commit to these moves? Probably not - But it's on the radar.

 

[Tails]

Round 15 update for the SCS Heat Seekers league
- Figures should be correct but the occasional error will likely be present

 

[Tails]

The schedule for the rest of the season:
- noting that LAL, MIL, NOP and SAS are yet to have a game added ...

 

[Tails]

Who plays who for the next 5 rounds:

 

[Tails]

An update for 9 of my 10 leagues (all SCS members in them)

A very mixed round for most of us with an even share of blue and red
- Quite a few missed games this round from Cunningham, Giannis, Edwards, Gafford, KD, LBJ, Micic, Mitcehll etc

Teams in the top 10 this round were:
- @Moranther (1st) and team "The Big Ragu" (4th)
- not far behind them was @Jay Sea (20th)

The top league overall rankings will be covered in a subsequent post ...
- but this table will show rankings amongst league sizes only

 

[Tails]

NBA 2025 Group / League participants with a top 10 score for a round

 

[Tails]

Round 14 overall league rankings (regardless of league size)

- I'm only going down as far as required to include all the "SCS branded" leagues that I am in:

 

[tso]

1214
Up 1
Pos 35th

OUT CC, Thompson, KD
IN Booker, Wemba, Portis (1 round)

7x 5
2x 4

 

[Snatch]

Dodged the Giannis bullet… picked the Durant bullet instead lol
First time inside the top 50 this season.

Trades- Durant and OO out. Probably cash in Edey. Need to look at fixtures to work out who comes in, but on a quick look, don’t love options with best fixture run.
