Guest Mindless_Aggression Report post Posted December 27, 2003 I refuse to let this thread sink into the mediocrity that is the 2nd page of the Sports section. So who drafted this year does suck? Everyone seems to actually playing goodball, from Lebron to the kid Dallas has. very odd and disturbing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the pinjockey 0 Report post Posted December 27, 2003 Darko Granted, hard to play well when you average about 1 minute a game. EDIT: Sorry, I exaggerated. He is actually averaging 2.8 minutes per game with a stout half point per game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Mindless_Aggression Report post Posted December 27, 2003 Yeah, poor Darko is in the proverbial shitter. To hell with it, if I'm Larry Brown, I stick him out there, you're losing every game you play lately, what damage can he do? But no, keep the almighty ELDEN CAMPBELL out there to suck wind. Dwayne Wade has been pretty fuckin awesome lately. He essentially kept his Fantasy Team in it last week against me, the bastard. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cartman 0 Report post Posted December 27, 2003 How am I in 1st right now? Seriously... Look at my team! I mean Ben Wallace, Marbury, and Walker are carrying my team...but thats it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sandman9000 0 Report post Posted December 27, 2003 Yeah, drafting Darko was another brilliant move made by me. As was drafting Jamaal Tinsley, who then proceeded to disappear. As was dumping Lamar Odom for sucking ass, who then decides to actually go and play basketball. I'm giving my team the rest of this week and next week to turn it around, and if it, it's firesale time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cuban Linx 0 Report post Posted December 27, 2003 Well my team's clearly not as good as my 5th place would indicate, i got fat beating up shit teams, but i'm being bent over and rammed up the ass this week, down 7-1. I'm really lucky to be anywhere after a drafted stupid. Jason Terry ain't worth a 2nd round pick and last i checked he was in Atlanta's dog house, Big Dog was always just asking for trouble, as was drafting Mourning and his kidneys, not to mention Doug Christie and his lack of any stats whatsoever. One of my few decent picks, Chris Bosh, i of course dropped right before he got good. I'm only alive thanks to other people's questionable moves and the godliness of Kevin Garnett. I can't thank whoever dropped Nene and Q-Rich enough. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

the pinjockey 0 Report post Posted December 27, 2003 How am I in 1st right now? Seriously... It doesn't hurt that in the 8 completed weeks you have already played 6 of the bottom 7 teams in the league. But also you have a shitload of steals, Wallace brings the blocks, Wallace and Dampier bring the boards, Marbury brings a ton of assists and a bunch of people can hit a three for you. So while you may not have a ton of star power, pretty much everyone on the team provides at least one or two non-point stats. So you are typically going to go into every week with a 5-3 advantage from the start. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted December 27, 2003 Man, its just my luck that my #1 AND #2 picks go down with injury right when I face the better teams in the league. I've gone from 15 above .500 to (probably) below .500 in just two weeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Mindless_Aggression Report post Posted December 28, 2003 My team is sort of getting it together, we've been competitive with the top teams the past few weeks and can beat the lower teams with ease. Sadly, we're in the limbo hell that is middle of the pack. We can be annoying and a bother at times but rarely ever a big problem. I curse you Eddie Jones for being the most inconsistent player ever.

Sandman9000 0 Report post Posted December 28, 2003 So, James Posey goes on waviers, and I put a claim on him. I check the next day, and it's not me that has him, it's the number one team in the league that does! The fuck? I thought that the lower ranked team had priority on waivers, not from top down. Ron Artest finally loses it and clashes with Carlsile, causing Artest to be benched for the whole second half and in the dog house for who knows how long. There goes my best player, and that's saying a lot. Charlie Ward plays all of 3 minutes and does shit, so he's gone for someone else who can't do shit. I'm sure I'll get killed next week as well, since I have a team which needs to overachieve just to stay competitive with the lower teams. I fucked my whole draft up, took a round 3-4 player with my first pick, showed no patience or common sense or eye for talent, and I'm paying in spades. If this team doesn't have a 180 next week, I'm dumping the whole lot, first offers get what they want. I'll dump Artest, Yao, Gasol, McInnis, Stoudamire, etc...for bench players if people want. This team has a week before I dump them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the pinjockey 0 Report post Posted December 28, 2003 Could you just keep a lineup and then just not check it anymore, as opposed to giving players away. I hate it when bottom teams always do that in every league, and it always turns into bitching and bullshit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
razazteca 0 Report post Posted December 28, 2003 I thought that the lower ranked team had priority on waivers, not from top down. I think it has something to do who made the request 1st and draft position. And please do not dump the whole team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the pinjockey 0 Report post Posted December 28, 2003 Yeah, I think the waiver system is based on draft position. Then once you get one guy, you go to the back of the line. I don't know if Yahoo has a setup where you can change that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cuban Linx 0 Report post Posted December 29, 2003 Well, my ass kicking is complete as i go down 7-1 to the Guerreros. That's just the entree though, as now i get to go up against the 1st place Whalers on the Moon for a second beatdown. And if there's anything left of my team after that, the week after i get the 3rd place Celtics for dessert. Jerry Stackhouse, if you ever plan on making a comeback this season (not that i'd be rushing to return to the crap-ass Wizards), now would be a REAL good time.
