0 Subject: 12/16 Dark Side of the "Moon" Action Thread.

- Leader [499271021] Sun, Dec 16, 2007, 08:48

With a great schedule for Toronto Moon has taken a beating on price as of late. I am still holding hoping for the better. Also will Kobe be a go for today? Was thinking of paul > Kobe....instead got Bynum and upgraded elsewhere. Well I am off to shoveling and wanted to make the thread early because I love Pink Floyd and though the dark Side of the Moon was appropriate. Hope he kick as today.

CJ...don't hold Moon

It's a losing battle that will not pay off. He isn't getting the minutes and his price is too high.

I don't like the look of this game for the Warriors. Noon time games for a west coast team are tough.

Tough having anyone vs Boston. And agree Jedman, why does the NBA have a west coast team come east and have a noon tipoff?

Baron will not get 20 TSNP, which will just addd to the selling pressure on him. Even I may move him to Wade tomorrow. I know they play Memphis, but after this game and flying to Memphis, I'm not sure how good the Warriors will be tomorrow.

This is the first really horrible game for the Warriors this year. I guess every team will have one and Detroit is a slow down team that plays good defense.

I'll be surprised if Baron and SJax play any more today. The subs have cut the lead to 20, they are playing with energy and it's a long road trip. Nellie might just decide to rest them for Memphis tomorrow. I hope I'm wrong, but it would not surprise me.

Do you offer a trade back guarantee qwert?

Those of us who held Baron finally are going to have a day where it hurts us. Pretty tough to complain about him after all the wonderful games he's had. It's just too bad it had to happen right around the time he's getting a lot of sell pressure.

Does anyone ever notice that when the sell off a player starts early and you keep that player because he still has a decent schedule for a week, that all of a sudden that specific player starts throwing up stinkers? It's like a voodoo doll effect that takes place.

BARON DAVIS SUCKS!

We just remember the ones where it does happen. Up until now, Baron has been fine and he's been sold.
Kaman has been good to me as has Calderon, so it is the ones that do stink that we remember. How about the guys who picked up Wade or Lebron lately? Do you think they are really happy with what they've gotten? Would they rather have that trade back?
How about the guys we did pick up, like D. Wright after selling say McDyess? I think it evens out over the course of a year. That's what makes the game frustratingly fun? Now I have to guess if Baron will go off tomorrow against Memphis or if Wade is about to bust out with a big game without all the turnovers. Fun, fun, fun.
And do I keep the Wright>Outlaw trade or change to Telfair because Mrs. Bandwagon likes Telfair better?:)

Boston/Toronto another blowout and a bad game for my other differentiation, Calderon. I was feeling pretty good about day before it started. Ominous winds are blowing for Kaman tonight and my new pick up Outlaw. Bad karma or whatever you want to call it.

WOW My Golden state and TOR players BLOW! At least Toronto had some respectable TSNP (Calderon and MOON), But Davis and Jax just aweful. I will still hold as I want to go into next week with extra trades and the schedules are simply the best for the remainder of the week.

trades are to gain money and points...you will still lose another 500K easy on Moon and get a maximum of 15 TSNP/game, IMO.

If you have the flex, I think a trade of Moon to Telfair or someone else who is producing is well worth it.

good schedules with lack of production does nothing for you (ie. shawne williams).

also, if this is the team from the Ultimate Standings, your RV needs a huge boost.

as far as Calderon and the Warriors, I absolutely agree with holding them.

holding Baron

after a long day of going back and forth on my decision, undoing and redoing trades, doing calculations and projections (which will probably never hold anyways), I went

Udrih->Telfair x 4

he's always off the bench pretty late...but he seems to get his minutes. all in all a solid half for a highly bought player.

Bynum showing Kaman why we all sold him.

Kobe thriving on adversity...looking to hang a big number on the board.

5 blocks by bynum nice but not so nice for all of my teams where I was only able to grab both at C on a few teams.
No blocks for Kaman yet. Neck and neck at the half for TSNP.

bynum out scores Kaman at the half

hopefuly 2nd half be the same way

well I am hoping Kaman comes out on top. Eitherway Bynum holders at this point are doing great. 4 fouls though could call for a dim 4th Q. Kaman needs to be more aggressive as he only has 1 foul.
