No doubt about age catching up to Garnett. He's been battling father time for the last few years. Sorry to hear about Harden and Wade. Losing Spencer Hawes yesterday probably didn't help neither. He could've helped even up the battle for Blocks.

 

Yup, it was a tightly contested matchup though.  And it's a very very long season.

That it is. I'm happy with the win this week, but a little discontent with the ending. I needed a single three from Afflalo to break the tie and he laid a goose egg in that department. Threes and steals may end up being my kryptonite, especially since I've already decided to punt two other categories. On that note, I've just achieved what will likely be my only victory in the FT% department. That was with Dwight Howard, DeAndre Jordan and Kenneth Faried on the roster. I'll take it.

Wow.  You should get extra points for winning FT% with Dwight Howard on the roster.  That's basically impossible.

lol Agreed. Would you believe that he's shooting better from the charity stripe than Jordan? 54.3% to 41.6%. My team is filled with, "Hack a _______."

[codizzle]

I doubt the former, considering that your the three players you benched, those being Kevin Love, Marcin Gortat amassed an FG% of 54.3 on 19 for 35 shooting. Given your ridiculous 698 points, your FG% of 48.9, and his lead of 2.0%, without doing the math, it seems unlikely that their outputs would've granted you the lead in that category. Also, with their 3 blocks, you would've finished with 21 to 28 in that category as well. That aside, it's crazy to think that you would've scored 700+ points in two of the last three weeks had the line up been set on Tuesday. It may be early, but your team has all the makings of a juggernaut. Great job drafting, my friend.

Fair enough.. Didn't look into it.. Was just trying to make myself feel better ha

Yea i seriously believe Jordan just closes his eyes and just throws the ball at the rim

If you want to feel better, just look at your roster lol

If he hasn't already, he probably should. It won't get much worse than what it currently is. I wanted to draft Andre Drummond to round out the worst free throw shooting roster in history.

Haha yea.. Luckily he's the only one really bringing my % down badly..

Sweet Jesus! 24.0%? I'm glad you have others to make up for it, but that number by itself is unfathomable.

He doesn't shoot a ton and most of my guards are excellent At FT's

Drummond makes up for it with his defense though..

Consistent blocks And steals which is great for big man

Oh, definitely. You can live with 2 attempts per game. Agreed 100% about the defense.

[-Truth-]

By the way, if anyone's willing to part with a player who contributes in either scoring, threes or steals, I'd be willing to move some pieces around.

[Guest Mr. Nobody]

wow third 5-4 win in a row... well i'll take it... who's up next?

[gabefergy]

Good thing I was playing SAM this week. Got bit hard by the injury bug, and Anthony Davis only had 2 games.

I may be interested. I could use another big man.

[T3hRaven]

It's on gabe!  I didn't forget to set my lineups for this week.

[Guest Mr. Nobody]

so the weekly wins per se don't count for nothing, only the overall score one achieves during the week... hmm, need to change approach to games then

[codizzle]

So many games tonight..

Tough leaving al Jefferson and jj. Reddick on the bench

[codizzle]

175 points today

Without love, Conley or Wesley Matthews..

Dang

[-Truth-]

Well done. I didn't expect 124 points from just 6 active players tonight. I am now mulling over whether I should start several liabilities in order to up my output totals for the season or play it safe and bench them in order to avoid losing the battle for the FT%. Then again, my FG% lead is slim as well, and the ones I'll be benching are shooting over 55% for the season. Good problem to have in the grand scheme of things, I suppose.

I'm coming for you, don't you worry...

[T3hRaven]

Wow it was 5-4 me heading into today, but I got some major production to win the week 7-2.

[gabefergy]

More like I got crap production in the close categories I needed. Anthony Davis going down killed me, and is going to kill me for the forseeable future.

[-Truth-]

If anyone is looking to part with a player who produces in either blocks, threes or boards, in that order, I'm shopping around Lance Stephenson, Trevor Ariza, Kenneth Faried and Enes Kanter. I'd be willing to do a two for one, if the deal calls for it. PM me if interested, or send me a trade offer.

[codizzle]

Don't get excite SAM I'll have you done by the 7th..

Missed quite a few starts when I was sick past couple days

SAM's been MIA since before the Draft. I'm surprised that he has the lead on you with three injured players in his line-up.

[SecretAgentMan]

Speaking of which, did Ed_Reed20 find my replacement?

I was not aware that you were leaving. I'm not sure if he was either, so I'm assuming that he hasn't started yet.

He said he would find me a replacement GM until my workload was lightened lol..... I told him about it awhile ago.

Oh. Got you. He has not found one, to my knowledge.
