Yeah that was pretty bad. Might have won had I not forgotton to start Crawford.

Still pretty horrible. Wade and Parker pretty much only work part-time in the NBA at this point.

I'm still happy with my season. Zero people looked twice at my roster post draft as any sort of threat, but I finished third.

Last few weeks were definitely a clusterfuck. I don't even know what the fuck happened really.

Wade was a stay away player but yeah, temptation was too great. Even with LBJ, healthy Wade in their first season together was arguably a top 5 fantasy player.

As for Parker, I warned ya. Pop was going to rest him randomly and excessively. None of the Spurs players was a safe bet imo. Duncan, ofc you'd see unexpected DNPs here and there. Same for Manu and Parker. Then there was Kawhi who was ranked way too high mostly because of expectation of improvement. But I never bought into it. Hype was similar to Paul George and Jimmy Butler's. Their playoffs series against LBJ kinda upped their hype little more than usual.

WHAT DA HECK JUST HAPPENED? In the last minute, Nick came back from dead.

5 - 5 TIE, who makes the Finals? What's the tie breaker?






Lowry and Martin two of my best players sat out entire week w/o notice. Unfortunately, even if I make it through to the Finals, I have bunch of hurt players and have no decent replacement pieces that can effectively fill those players' void (eric gordon, lowry, kevin martin). This is quite a let down after what seems to be one of the best individual regular seasons. :shake:

EDIT: I guess I make it through. Props to Nick though for coming this far even with devastating injury to his core from early season.

I've been preoccupied with my other league, i forgot to check this one. I've been playing David Lee :doh:

damn, I was really busy this week. didn't even notice Lee wasn't playing. :doh:
would've won had I played Bass in his place.

Also, how do you still have McRoberts still in the line-up? All you had to do was to notice 'INJ' tag while browsing through your roster. Lee hasn't played for last 6 games and McRoberts hasn't suit up for last 3 games. :lol:

But I took a risk and started Lowry and my players mostly consist of early shut down candidates because of meaningless left-over games and maintenance mode, etc. Let's just enjoy the watered down Finals. Worst we could do now is 2nd anyway which is not bad.

What's funny is that Consolation 7th place competing teams are vastly superior than actual finals teams. :lol:

But for me, this victory(?) felt much sweeter than any 9-2 ass whooping victories from the past (like last year playoffs, I had 9-2 all the way). This was epic. :twisted:

Woot! 2 for 2, 100% championship rate!

Nick gave me a good scare in the 2nd round but my team prevailed in the end. :lol:

I must have changed my roster three or four times all year. These week-by-week rosters always get me. If we don't do it day-by-day, I never remember to edit them. :lol:


Congrats Novu
