Just wondering if there are any underperforming players right now that could probably be had at a discount but should eventually pick up their performances.

Dominated first two weeks and am sitting in first place with my current team in a 16- team league:

PG: Chris Paul, Goran Dragic, Greivis Vasquez, Andre Miller
SG: Bradley Beal, Arron Afflalo,
SF: Gerald Green, Caron Butler, Chandler Parsons
PF: Dirk Nowitzki (INJ), Brandon Wright,
C: Ryan Anderson, Andrea Bargnani

We've been doing a good job of nailing down a lot of the scoring categories...and we've pretty much forfeited the idea of taking down blocks. Rebounds are also probably a lost cause, though I think we won the first week and were close in rebounds in the second week.

My buddy that I'm co-managing with has been trying to target Ty Lawson.

Any guys come to mind?

The entire Toronto Raptors team??

If it's daily starts you could grab calderon for tonight. He had a monster game last night and with Lowry out he'll get at least one more big-minute start tonight. They don't play again until Friday but if you could use assists, 3s, good %s and a few steals he might be on the waiver wire.

I'm looking for underperforming players that can be targeted via trade.

Like I mentioned it's a 16 team league so players like Calderon have no chance of being on the waiver wire. If I want to improve my team it'll have to be via trade.

That chat lists a bunch of buy low targets. Also, blocks are the hardest category to fill because of scarcity, then I believe it's assists. I think that info is also from Rotoworld, but it might be ESPN or Rotowire.

Thanks for the link Ross,

Yeah unfortunately I missed the draft because of work and my buddy couldn't connect to the draft lobby for the first couple rounds which was why we ended up with Westbrook and Nowitzki as our first two picks. Originally our plan had been to stack up on big men and try and dominate those categories...but now we actually have a team stacked on small guy stats. Our team has actually obliterated the opposing team in assists both of the first two weeks haha.

You can win a league while dominating in small-ball stats. Remember that in a 9 cat league you can win FT%, 3s, PTS, ASTS, STLS, essentially punting the other categories and still win practically every week. My favourite strategy is to try to draft big guys who pass and little guys who rebound because it tends to provide more flexibility week to week against opponents. No strategy is fool proof, but you just gotta take your draft and run with it.

Did you trade Westbrook for CP3?

This was my strategy and I now sit in 1st place in my 10 team league. I really knew nothing about basketball and outside of my keepers (Durant, Wall, Lowry, Horford) I just drafted multi cat studs (which often translates to your big man passers and small man boarders).

Yeah he was part of a package....I'm not quite sure how to feel about it but my buddy really wanted CP3 so I said sure. We traded Westbrook and Thad Young for CP3 and Harrison Barnes....since then we dropped Barnes.

Another deal we made that I'm not too sure how I feel about anymore:

K.Walker + Noah for Ryan Anderson and Afflalo

It's hard to say how either deal will look in the end. Noah is balling right now, but Boozer is not so I expect Noah's numbers to come down a bit as Boozer gets more looks and production while the season progresses. Kemba is young and very inconsistent. Anderson held the 7th best value in the league last year, and as he gets used to his new team and system, his numbers will rise. Affalo will get a ton of minutes and stats as the Magic are very shallow. I like this trade for you guys.


The first deal is a wash at this time, there are a lot of variables that need to settle before it can be fully assessed. Keep Barnes on your watch list, he will get a ton of minutes all season and has been working on his game down low.
