Covers Fantasy Basketball Discussion Part 3

How does DeAndre Jordan get all these blocks? I haven't seen him get off his feet since the tip off. And these guys are coming right at him.

Im not saying what you did was bad at all. You made a couple of good trades. Its either

A. Harris-Howard. Bad FT%. Great blocks
or
B. Jefferson-Curry. Good FT% Bad blocks

whatever the manager thinks is better. I am in favor of option B .

 

Howard...0-2 at the line so far.

When I was bragging that he was 6-6 from the line the other day...he missed his next 5. He HAD to go.

And it's not really "Bad Blocks" either. I have Sammy D too. He'll get his blocks...just not too much. But blocks come from where they do. If I traded Howard for Jefferson straight up it wouldn't knock me to last in blocks. But keeping Howard all season meant I was locked in at last for FT%. Trading him when I did and improving him to a 90% shooter in Curry can creep me back up the ranks.

In regards to Sammy D...it should read "just not too much ELSE"

I was telling powerade yesterday. I went through about 50 teams on yahoo who had the most roto points on the leaderboard and NOT ONE TEAM had Howard on it. I would say half to 3/4 had Chris Paul. Hands down the best fantasy player. Man do i wish i had first pick because i would have taken him no doubt. I dont care what Durant did last year. Paul dominates EVERYWHERE!

When I was looking to add a shot blocker before I got Jefferson, I tried to get Bogut. Good thing I didn't. Did you see his FT%? How is he hitting 48%? Really? 36-75?

Its pathetic. Brendon Haywood 9-34 shooting .265 from the FREE throw line

Ben Wallace is really bad too I've noticed. I was 3 minutes away from picking him up and dropping JJ Hickson for him but someone else got him. I gave up on Hickson's "upside". I can't wait for that.

I'm watching this Magic/Clippers game. The Clippers have a special "valet section" for Porsche drivers. As if Porsche drivers need any extra treatment.

i had to make a move to get a Big guy and even though Howards FT% sucks i think i'll be alright with the guys i have to at least stay around 7-8 pts in our league, im currently 10th in FT% (the good one sparky  )   im still last in Rebs and Blocks so if i didnt make a move how the hell would i address them needs esp when 3 managers i offered trades to didnt respond to me at all..

u got the better player sparky no doubt but its not like i didnt know what i was getting with howard, i needed to address 2 last place spots and he fits them needs so i offered u Curry cause i wanted to pair Howard and Horford up, losing Horford for Howard wouldnt help me needs at all cause Horford is basically Howard with better FG%/FT% but lower Rebs n Blocks (not many Rebs behind)..

u made out good with Jefferson though..   GL the rest of the way.. 

ManRam:  im always down to discuss trades.  who u want from my team??   

Anyone here good at math? I need help BADLY with one of these questions.

Philly

Dwight, Nene, Horford

If only i payed as much attention in school that i have my whole life on sports i would be a genius. Man i wish i could do it all over.....

You're telling me. I can tell you minor details of Yankee games over the past 3 years but I can't tell you how to fucking factor shit.

Just like they say. You can remember all the lyrics to a song...but you can't remember school work.

Maybe I can help sparky.

Manram...you said it with chris paul Unless you own the guy or check the stat sheet daily you cant really appreciate what he does. Worked on his three, hes avging over 1 a game [over 45%], on top of his %'s, his assists, scoring is a little down but over 3.0spg  the man is nuts. I got him 3rd and laughed at the guy who took LBJ #2 all the way till the 10th round.

 give it a shot. I thought you needed help with some simple fantasy math or something lol now I reread u said "problems" like youre taking a test of some sort

what math problem?

I'll do my best to explain it. I'm trying to average out my grade and am LOST. I got my final tomorrow and I don't know what I need to get on it. Let me break it down.

Homework = 10% (90)
Quizzes = 5% (20)
Test 1 = 10% (70)
Test 2 = 10% (75)
Test 3 = 15% (53)
Test 4 = 20% (68)
Test 5 = 30%

I need to get 70% to pass. Above is what each thing breaks down to and my grade for that is in the paranthesis (out of 100). I need to know if anyone can find out what I need on this test that is 30% of my grade, to pass the class.

Wait...take out the 20 on the quizzes. I really don't know what I got on the quizzes because I didn't get them all back. Lets just say I got 1% of that 5% on quizzes.

sparky, just divide the dirivited combobular escro by 2 then take the transregulatory effect of the nucleous monophrane and times that by 6 then add in your sucky quiz grade and that my friend will give you the % u need on your test that in turn will lead to a passing grade.....   Boom !!!     

or i can lend you my "easy button".....

 

  Go Birds.....   

Nucleous is a scientific term silly.
