My season definitely cook now, if it wasn’t already

Captain Doncic having a mare of a week
I have Banchero Bane and F. Wagner this week
and I had Barnes, Morant and Jalen Johnson last week, got rid of them and suddenly they pump out +40 scores this week

Can’t believe the bad luck I had so far, I just turn players into spuds when I have them I reckon I will be well over 400 pts off the leader by the end of the week, would be 500 if Barnes didn’t get injured

Mate, you should read other posts... This was the reply to your last post of this quality.

Yep, no chance at all of a good result with just 21 weeks to go and the variability in scoring in this.

And the carnage continues. Lots of doom and gloom this week, i don't think any coach will escape all the injuries and disappointments. Every coach will be affected in some form but those with Jokic (C) still smiling.

On a bright side Doncic got back onto the court, every point counts.....right.

I really think this sport brings out the worst in Dazza, he has been a bit the same in previous years. There's been worse whingers though...

Not really whinging, just NBA fantasy can get very frustrating. at least with other fantasy games a player generally plays one game a week, if they miss with injury you get back up with an emergency or reverse your trade, but a player gets injured after playing 1-2 games in NBA, you are losing a lot of ground, some of it is my fault not having Jokic as well not having him as a Captain option is a game killer

That is like ~20 points a round to make up ...
- not impossible with boost trades in hand and this seasons bunch of rookies ...
- just got to trade well and aggressively from here on in ...

Doncic C….just truly unbelievable. And had to play Hawkins on field to get him in this week. Almost season over after the horrible start last week. I never learn to just always get and captain Jokic on a 4. ALWAYS

Moreso for draft formats and waiver wire grabs but Sochan deserves some attention. Picked him up earlier this week thanks to his dual position status in Sleeper. Price may be a tad high in Sportsdeck but the dual position status (PG and PF) could come in handy.

Another on my watchlist ....
- as you said price is a concern but he looks good ...

Looking ahead to RD3, New York go on a run of 4,4,3,4 so Karl Anthony-Towns may be an option for those like myself that passed on Jokic or others looking for a cheaper option at the PF/C position (currently $15,010,000). Thibodeau with a reputation for playing his starters heavy minutes, so a tad more predictable than other sides.

Another I have plenty of time for is Josh Hart who could help fill a difficult SG/SF spot but may be a bit too expensive in this format but a must in draft formats if he is still on the waiver wire.

KAT also on my watchlist ...

Fun Fact: Sabonis played all 82 regular season games last year.

You piqued my interest so I went back through my spreadsheets ...
- 82 games is an awesome effort for any modern day player ...

I'm missing the IST round ...
- but as you can see he didn't play 3 consecutive 4 game rounds until the end of season (R16 was the all star break round) ...
- he actually played 4 of them in a row at the end of the season ....
- my recorded scores for those were 37, 37, 25, 36, 28, 23, 24, 27, 38, 25, 30, 42, 15, 26, 38, 31,
- that is very solid to be honest ... approx 16 games in 28 days ...
