Um. Did Team Seven (who is this on this forum ? ) accidentaly pressed "Accept" on NovU outrageous offer while browsing on the mobile app ? Happened to me once or twice. What the Hell. That trade is not even close to being fair lol. Good catch, NovU

[NovU]

I am actually the one that pressed Accept button as I was counter offered on my low end trade offers that was sent out to multiple guys as I was shopping to replace John Henson in my line up. He's actually seven o sevin, quite a long time forum member(afaik lone long time GSW fan) and has been successful during my tenure in this fantasy league. He's finished top 5 each of last 3 seasons that I played and has been very competitive, and also a my division rival the whole time.

Rondo's returning 2nd round value in standard league format(according to today's roto) though there's no guarantee George Karl's gonna keep feeding him the ball, while Vucevic's been greatly struggling and there's news he might get benched now with no foreseeable upside since there're too many mouth to feed in Orlando. I think that's his reasoning for this offer. For me, Rondo's a guy I acquired in Lillard-Kawhi trade as a sidekicker, costing mostly Thaddeus and Afflalo, so turning them into a guy who was picked in late first round sounded worthy gamble to me. In short, I considered Rondo 3rd rounder at best and Vucevic 5th rounder at worst so there's fair risk both way imo.



Although I'm not doing well this year, making trade has been fun. lol, hopely I will get somewhere at the end.

[Stress Fracture]

Backed out of all current trades. Thanks for everyone that sent offers. Unless I get an offer that really catches my interest, I'm just going to ride it out with my current roster for another week or two and see how things look.

Just when I thought Brook Lopez would seal the deal.

[Moz]

Ok I've explained why I did mine so it's TeamSeven's turn now...

[I Hate Mondays]

He went small ball like his favourite team is doing right now. Simple

[Moz]

Just teasing NovU since he did a Johnny Cochran on this one Glancing on Team Seven's roster, he got tons of C in it so perhaps he's just unloading redundants...

[NovU]

It is indeed interesting move by Seven team. I'd say it's a bold bust or big hit move. Outside of Vucevic and Rondo, trade kicker guys was interesting imo. Key guy he wanted was Rondae Hollis-Jefferson who could be the best player from secondary players involved. Yesterday rotoworld had title dedicated to Rondae which I have a feeling Team Seven read, lol.

Rookie Rondae Revving It Up
Monday, November 23, 2015




I’m not sure how many people expected Rondae Hollis-Jefferson to be the most exciting player on the Brooklyn Nets roster at any point in the season, much less at this juncture in the campaign. But here we are, less than halfway to the halfway point of the season, and the rookie is well on his way to achieving that title, on pace to shatter any low-end expectations in the process.

In nine games as a starter, Hollis-Jefferson is averaging a modest 5.8 points, 7.1 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.9 steals on 47.5% shooting. Over his last two games, Hollis-Jefferson is averaging 11.0 points, 9.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 4.0 steals on 7-of-15 shooting while playing 30-plus minutes in each one. Hear that sound? The service elevator has arrived, and Hollis-Jefferson is moving on up.

.......

Bargain Bin: Rondae Hollis-Jefferson, SG Brooklyn Nets

I’ve talked about rookie Rondae before, and Hollis-Jefferson is trending upward for all of the right reasons. Capable of contributing across the stat sheet without ever having a play called for him, Hollis-Jefferson set a career-high in steals with five of them on Sunday, giving him 10 for the week. Locked into the starting lineup—without much of a challenge—and having played at least 23 minutes in five straight games, RHJ makes sense as a back of the roster addition for anyone in 12-plus team formats. Don’t be like those who lost out on Nikola Jokic because they wanted to call it a fluke.

It was surprising for him to include Rondae and Powell whom I haven't been including in low end offers because it's usually tough to get fair value on upside alone.

Interestingly I had just declined Jokic for Rondae deal because of my investment in Nurkic and as Rondae has better outlook in terms of competition for playing time. If things go right for Rondae, certainly he could provide more than Scola and Lopez combined together. Still, it is a bold move as this kind of trade doesn't happen too often.

[Kevin]

I'm not even going to reach the playoffs with this kind of team. God, this year's a bust for me.

[Moz]

So turn your attention to the other league Let me know if you want to add another player for that offer

[NovU]

Don't give up Kev. Just do some work. Pick up hot free agents, make good trade, you can become relevant in no time.

Last year my team had gone through a complete makeover, and had no originally drafted player left on my roster. And won the title that way with Wade on it. Anything's possible.

[buzzy]

Conley and Crawford for Clarkson.

Guess I really don't understand anything about fantasy if this is suppsoed to be an even trade. You guys confuse me so much.

[NovU]

Wow. What was that about stress fracture? You might have broken up a serious contender team with that move. Team Seven outright robbed you in daylight.

[Stress Fracture]

I'm frustrated on their numbers, especially Conley.

Didn't think he'll accept it, I was just exploring options.

Meanwhile, Never Google Fournier seems to be cooling down. Damn

[NovU]

I have a feeling you pressed panic button as you are playing the best team in the league. Average Joe is Best Joe, his numbers this week would crash anyone in this league otherwise your numbers are very solid.

[I Hate Mondays]

Crazy trades happen around all the leagues I've signed up for. People are very disappointed in players that were on very good teams last year and now are performing poorly ( Memphis, Houston, LA Clippers). They trade key players of those teams for ok-ish players from tanking teams. + Clarkson is usually scoring points on a high FG% for a guard (exzactly the opposite of Crawford right now if you ask me). It's just that Stress Facture should've got another player besides Clarkson to be all fair.

Should've accepted the Harden package mate... I reckon you give up prematurely on Conley...

[Stress Fracture]

You think I could've gotten more?

I was thinking of getting him, but I thought I'm going on the bad side of the trade after that. Besides, the free agent market is drying up, can't replace players now.

[NovU]

I think so. Conley's been hot lately and things were looking upward.

Man, that Harden package comes with quite a hectic price tag. I got the taste of it.

I like Harden but I can't give up all three Kawhi, Vucevic, Batum just for Harden and fillers. The best I can do for Harden might be Vucevic/Parsons/Batum straight up. We probably far off from making a deal.




I was planning to move Parsons in a move with Batum as they are the only remaining players I drafted(perhaps packaged with a big or two since I have many). If anyone can come up with interesting deals, I am all ears.

Ok... Harden and Porzingod for those 3 lets go!

[I Hate Mondays]

You think I could've gotten more?

Yup. Some mid-round value at least.

[Axel]

Wonder how many times Hollis Thompson will be added/dropped this season.

[NovU]

Not sure if I made the right call accepting the trade for LBJ as he's a piss poor 3pt shooter and ugly free throw shooter. Well, here goes nothing, team featuring LBJ, Kawhi, Anthony Davis.

[buzzy]

Hope for you AD is fine

[I Hate Mondays]

He is probably fine. He could walk on his own all over to the bench by the end of the game.

[NovU]

If AD is down, I'm basically screwed. I rely very heavily on my top 3 players now.
