First season playing wnba fantasy and first time really getting into basketball in general. Which would you take? Emily was just dropped to waivers yesterday. I have Sabally but I love Engstler's vibe in her interviews and she seems more stable than Sabally.
I have Nia Coffee and she has been putting up very steady points for me all season. Should I be prepared for her numbers to reduce significantly when Phee gets back into the flow?
… one has to go to take Carter off IR.
P.S.
I only have one IR spot.
The news that Ezi is coming back threw me off for the week. I’m going to leave her in the IR for now til I can see how much she plays, but I still gotta drop 1-2 here because I’ll need to activate Mabrey too.
I’m thinking drop Taylor first to activate Mabrey and then Naz to activate Ezi?
What do yall think?
Dm if you are itnerested
I run a league which is in its second year. One member exhibits a pattern of behavior that I feel is often outside the bounds of what a reasonable person would do.
For example:
-Last year when he realized he was gonna lose the championship to me he dropped his whole team. Obviously terrible etiquette
-On multiple occasions he has been furious that I wouldn’t give him the number of my opponent or someone higher in waiver order than me so he could text them and tell them to add streamers or claim players over me/whatever. Told him I wasn’t going to promote that behavior regardless of which teams were involved.
-There was a trade a 1-1 trade couple weeks ago. He lost the trade, and when the other owner saw his player in the top performers section earlier this week, he made a comment about it and then this guys response, while fine, was kind of strange. Multiple paragraph rant then 10 minutes later another paragraph, so obviously he was stewing about it the whole time. Multiple people told me they thought it was weird/ was he really serious
-Always sending me terrible trades that I will obviously decline. Commenting things like oh you got lucky with that waiver add but you’ll have to drop players if you want to stream blah blah. I can’t say I’ve ever sent someone a text about the bottom of their roster.
These are just examples. I just feel generally that his behavior is not in alignment with what a reasonable person would do. I’m not going to kick him out of the league mid season, but others are noticing more and more now and I’m not sure how to handle it or if I should not invite him back next season. I generally have enjoyed playing fantasy with him over the past few years, but in the last year ish he has dissolved more and more into being excessive I feel.
I guess I’m just going to have to tell him to tone it down a bit. I’ve been through this with him before about his etiquette but he often tries to turn it around and say Its my fault that I’m colluding against him somehow etc blah blah.I kind of feel like he is just like this when it comes to fantasy. So if I tell him to tone it down it doesn’t matter as it will just end up being more of the same eventually.
Has anyone had similar experiences with difficult league member/how did you handle it?
Two of the leagues I'm in - I had an almost comfortable gap with a projected W during any regular 4Q game, but naturally quadruple OT has me losing by 10-20 and you just have to laugh. Anyone else? 😅
My opponent for next week added a player today who isn’t playing until next Thursday, however in our matchup next week it isn’t listing the move as counting for next week.
In the past I’ve seen this and it did end up counting as a move for the week in which the next game is.
Is this wrong and should I adjust it to count as a move? I don’t feel the platform Is treating it correctly.
Am trying not to overreact to her being out "indefinitely", since I think that is the phrase they used with Malonga as she was working her way back. But given Satou's history, this feels a little different. Has anyone seen any additional information? I will probably keep her for a week or two before deciding but my IR is very full atm.
I didn't see any pinned posts or megathread so apologies if I violate sub rules. If anyone needs a new owner in any league I'm down!
Well, it was reported Chennedy would be ready to play today and was available - so I picked her up.
In fact during the broadcast, they said so…while the sideline camera was literally showing her on the bench regular clothes.
WTH.
Anybody else have Aces/Liberty players showing up as not scheduled to play a game tomorrow? Did something happen to need a reschedule?
I was getting crushed this week so my team decided to step it up!
I just looked at next week‘s schedule and because of the commissioners cup, there’s barely any games.
A quick glance and L.A. has 0 games.
ATL, Dallas and Seattle have 2.
Everyone else has 1.
Just a heads up if you need to plan ahead.
Best front court streaming option for today?
Salaun is obviously the more solid fantasy player, averaging 22 fantasy points per game, but her last few games have been duds. GSV play the Dream again today and Salaun only played for 10 minutes/11 fantasy points their last match up.
Betts fantasy average is only 12 points BUT they’re playing the Sun today. She got 23 points during their last match up.
FWIW: I don’t currently have Betts and I’d be dropping someone (likely Salaun) to pick her up. I feel somewhat confident in being able to reacquire Salaun again next week if I wanted to. I’m in a tight match up and am trying to optimize where I can!
THOUGHTS???
