And I am regretful that I never gambled for him in any of my leagues. Always had him in the queue and when it's my turn already and he's on top of my queue, i'd pick the next one. smh.



How could you have know Portis was going to break his team mates face and get 8 games suspension. I mean such a fluke, but the kid is making the most of it.


Well, the unsettled contract situation of Mirotic went on for a long time and Markkanen was making waves in the Eurobasket. Now that he's been exposed, will either Mirotic or Portis outplay him when either of them returns? Markkanen only makes them expendable.

Picking him at 150 was just an OK gamble. There were 2 guys ahead of him in the rotation and somehow they both got injured/demoted because of non-basketball reasons.

Which team is that?


guess what I m still the champion and i just might win the league once for the 3rd time again
if that happend would be my 3rd in 9th and 8th out of 9th making the playoffs

win a games doesnt mean you win the war
either way congrats for your win
I know it feels good to win agains the champion

On a side note you should change the name of your team to the great LAC since they are always great in the reg season and go out in week 1 of the playoffs

in your case it might be good imo since it s a dinasty
I would probably wait 1 more month and trade CP3 since he is getting close to getting worst for a high pick next year

I belive the draft going to be huge therefor you could get donkic and one of the other 3 that fits your team

I guess your are a skillfull nba fantasy drafter :roll:
normally when someone have a mental masturbation should keep that to his own afterall thats why its called masturbation, right?

Like all the other said Lauri got now the PT he would get after the all star break due to the fight between portis and mirotic.

yeah you got luck and fantasy his 80% skill 20%luck due to inj and other stuff.

I glad you are getting your run now... it was a perfect use of your King for a day ... since this week you are losing agaisnt 5-13 team
back to the fool for a life time mode and we wont see you again...

Rise up bro

Wait, wut? I was asking which team that was. Do you mean it was me? The reason I'm confused is that I was winning the matchup, so I thought you were talking about a hypothetical matchup with another team.

That's not what I meant. What's with you anyway? When you aren't in first you turn into a total troll. (also, when you are in first. ;-) )

I had never seen Markkanen. It really was a gamble.

None of my gambles are paying off.

LaVine - Yes, hurt when draft but the only hurt player I drafted.
Chris Paul - First round pick hurt first game of the season
Mirotic - Broken face
Okafor - Benched (TRADE HIM ALL READY)
Aminu - On crutches
Jon "Mr. Not Sexy" Leuer - Sprained ankle

I think Carmelo Anthony is the only player I drafted who is out performing his draft position.

Cp3 was the bpa when you picked him no mistake or reach
Lavine i dont like to pick injured players @ the draft - in a daily nba basis you see injurys i know this season we had 2 inj spots even still he was projected to return in January thats to much to wait
Mirotic it was a risky pick when you picked him just bc he wasnt signed and chicago could go in a different direction - it was just ul what happend next
Aminu is out performing his draft position and only have a minor inj
okafor is the only bad pick - i m not in shock with whats happening
Leuer had a small inj but its not getting the min - waiver

yet he was picked by Chi that is rebuilding right? therefor it was safe to know that after the ASB he would get PT
just happend to get before it was expected
when they draft him @7 it was a sure thing i guess

I'm almost there! First Wall now Blake, 2 of my big 3 are down for the count! Only one more to go and I get the injury trifecta. Come on Whiteside, you've got another injury in you!

And there we go! Whiteside down for the count. The Trifecta! And a bonus - Terrence Ross out until who knows when!

I'm having a firesale on my injured guys. Blake, Whiteside, Wall, Ross. Drop me an offer.

And there goes Gobert (which my computer tried to autocorrect to Goobers). When it rains it pours. I have a really good starting 5 injured players:
Whiteside, Griffin, Ross, Gobert, Dennis Smith JR.

Where's the disabled player exception when you need one?

FYI: That HAM trade. I had no idea that's what I offered. I was sending out too many offers last night. Even one of those guys I'm giving is better than Jerian Grant. :D
I'm not going to ask for the trade to be rescinded, though, it's my fault for not paying closer attention.
