Well, I'm blowing it all up. Frye has been kicking my ass for so long I've finally decided to jinx him by buying him. Sorry Frye owners, his days of 30+ are officially over!

Gotta sell Boozer early to get Tyreke tonight (lateral move but the money will be HUGE).

Still looking at LeBron to Howard on Tues and right back next Thurs, but Howard isn't exactly enstilling confidence for his B2B possibilities...Sigh

Living near Sacramento and listening to kings radio everyday, I'm not gonna jump into Tyreke right now. Yeah, the money could be huge and I'll probably regret it, but he's still sore and he's going to wear an ankle brace the rest of the year to protect it.

Help!

Really wrestling with this one. Could trade CDR for Frye today and give up a game. Will Frye make 300K thru Sun considering its a 1 in 4 ??? The smart manager saves his trade here until he's sure and gets real game advantage. I'm just terrified that everyone will buy Frye because of his last two games. If I can make an extra 300k and lose 15 or so points that's worth it. Really havin' trouble with this one. One hour left...

I think that makes a heck of a lot more sense than trading Boozer, giving up a Boozer game to get a sore ankled Tyreke.

Will Frye make that much money with 1 game in 4? Hard to tell.

Well, did the money move. Frye from CDR. Not entirely happy with it but its likely a trade I'd do on Monday, so why not do it now if the money will be decent? We'll see. He's simply been playing considerably better than CDR of late. 3 game advantage over the next 2 and a half weeks. More importantly most everyone will own Frye and I wanna be in that bed...

I had planned to move Beez/Booz on Sunday, but now I gotta re-think it. No Tyreke because I have no G/F to move from my guards. It'll have to be a C or F. (4.5 in the bank)

A. Blair (1.3) > Love now, Booz (7.64) > Kaman 1/10?
B. Blair / Booz > G-Wal / Murphy now?
C. Something else

I have penciled in Deng to Kaman move tomorrow. I love Phatsow's " Money Melon " reference. Cash Cow works too. After that LBJ => G Wallace.

M4L, maybe I'm being stubborn ( or stupid ) for not being Love owner, but I'm not so sure I'd buy in at this point. I'm not thrilled with his schedule, as you've already missed a part of what made his schedule OK. I just have a feeling he's going to be sold come next week.

Why not consider Blair=> Hibbert ( I know, fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me ). And yes, Murphy's back. Then Boozer => Wallace. That should leave $4M or so to decide on what to do, if anything with Beasley or Dorell. Both were fine last night, but from game to game, it seems like they're sell candidates. Beasley => Zach looks good if the money works. If you get Love your restricting any outs from the Heat guys.

Disclaimer-I have no plans to buy Hibbert.

On another note, what's everyone's take on the G slot. Wade/Paul/Nash/Kobe/Evans certainly make for a crowded backcourt, upcoming.

I had originally planned on Westbrook to Kobe 1/21. Then I thought, hmmm, WB=> Evans 1/12 works. That means no Kobe unless I get him from Wade. Getting Evans from Westbrook, gains nothing game wise, but does free up $.

Or just wait on Evans and get him from Nash 1/26. That would also mean not getting Lebron back. Pau would be a nice alternative.

22,

My guards (as of right now actually) are Wade, Paul, Nash and Evans. Plan to keep them for two weeks +. Nash'll likely become Kobe (a week into Kobe's sched - I'll miss the early money). Jennings is the guy who I miss on this run, but he hasn't been the ass-kicker he once was.

Not totally sure about what the frontcourt is gonna look like. I jumped into Frye because I think he's the safest play and one of the better values. Didn't do Hibb primarily because of riskiness and C-only. Gonna hold Love through the bleeding and I'm prepared to lose all of my Duncan money before he hopefully becomes Gasol. Casspi's staying until Kmart tells him to F-off. Caveman definitely comes on board Tues from LeBron and I'll add one more piece from Camby, Bogut, Wallace, Jamison, Home Improvement, etc...

Any thoughts on that last groupa fwds?

I like Wallace for points and $. You're also going to have a boatload of $ sitting around after moving Lebron, unless you upgrade Casspi or Q.

I must have missed the memo, who's Home Improvement?

SO I have to decide on 1/12, Westbrook => Evans, or 1/21 Kobe. Westbrook will probably slowly bleed at some point, but Evans has a 1-5 soon.

I would then go Nash to whoever I don't get later.

Not sure which is best.....

Personally I'd do Tyreke. He's gonna make a lot of money over time (mostly because his sched isn't that obviously great). His points/price is possibly second to none and you can always use the cap room. The thing about Kobe is that he doesn't play that well without Gasol. Hence, I don't really want him until Pau comes back.

Yep, I'm upgrading Q with the extra Lebeon cash.

It actually comes down to 5 Westbrook games/4 Kobe/1 Nash games vs 8 Evans games. The wildcard is spending the extra cash buy owning Evans.

As far as the $, yeah Evans will make some ( or alot ) but getting in late to Kobe means missing some $ there.

Dwight Howard to Kaman is the easy choice....
What to do with my $5+M is the tricky choice??
(Glad to be in that postion though...) Got luke warm response to David West the other day who is off to a terrific start... Is Antwan Jamison the same player as West?
Im thinking upgrade Kirk Hinrich or Jason Thompson... Leaning towards Thompson to Jamison.. Antwan numbers are up with Arenas gone (yes... its only been a couple game). Schedule great for a month!
... Or something like Hinrich to Baron Davis?? But he is one of those guys that always gets hurt as soon as I buy him.

... Maybe Duncan instead of Jamison? (He would transition well back to Lebron on 1/19)... Cleveland Schedule is not GREAT then.... but, opening up a schedule starting 1/19, not too many teams without holes then, so given his production I probably want to get back to him then.

Guards
Wade and Paul -- everybody is holding of a month.. meaning everyone has TWO limited guard spots to fill.
Westbrook -- no need to sell him either
Hinrich -- Performing GREAT for his money. Schedule is decent. Was hoping he would make money (but given the limited guard space that is not gonna happen.) Would like to try to turn him into Teyreke Evans (1/15?)

wish list:
Jamison -- anytime
G Wallace -- 1/15
Zach Randolph -- 1/15

Centers
Frye and Kamen -- both holds for awhile

Forwards (So this is where the fun is now!!!)
Gallinari -- similar to Hinrich... Wish I made more TSN$$$ earlier I did not need a cheapie.
Beasley -- people has too high expectations when they bought him... performing OK given his price and schedule. Doesn't transition well into anyone on my wish list.
West -- performing great. Nice thing about a lightly owned player is they have the flexibility that I can sit him here and not HAVE to think about him for awhile or I can move him at anytime if I have the trade to do it.
Duncan(?? to Lebron 1/19) gotta figure where the money is coming for that?

Wish list
Jamison -- anytime
Zach Randolph -- 1/15
G Wallace -- 1/15

Hmmmmm... guess I need to look at 1/15 for a bit.

32,

There's a billion trade rumors floating right now, of which likely ZERO of them will turn out to be true. Most of us look to buy 3 to 4 week schedules anyhow. The deadline is more than 5 weeks away. I'm not worrying about any of that talk. As far as "Cotton Camby" goes, I'd worry alot more about the phantom DNP than how any trade might affect him.

After tonight, I can't wait to at least have some trades to consider some moves:

Jennings, Wade, Paul, Nash
Frye, Wright, Duncan, Beasley
Hibbert, Kaman

With only 4.89 in the bank, the only thing I see is Beasley > G Wallace. Wright will have to stay unless I move Duncan to either Jamison, Haywood or some other lower-priced forward and use the cash.

I'm holding LeBron and Love. Because they're good and because trade-strapped manager will likely have to fix other problems.

I had a list of about 8 guys I considered, but in the end I decided on Kaman --> A'mare and Wade ---> Nash. I went back and forth between Jamison and A'mare, but without immediate need for the $2 million extra A'mare will cost, I decided to go with the guy with lower ownership and a slightly more favorable schedule (taking into account not only number of games but also identity of opponents).

I think Baron could end up being great and that many teams could rise or fall with him, but I ultimately chose to eschew the risk. I also like Foye (and even Jordan), but my "cheap" guys are set for now with Evans, Jennings, Beasley and Caspi.

wow what a disaster this has been lately. I scrambled and picked up Jamison and Durant from Kaman and Duncan. Duncan was my way to James on Tuesday. Feel great about Jamison but Durant bombed tonight. He may now be my way to James on Tuesday unless the injuries and DNP's continue then he can be held and has flex.

Kept waffling on Jamison but think he could be a long term hold with Arenas gone from the team. Was is starting to look like NYK used too with little to no bench.

Durant started a 7 in 11 today and has been playing well but as long as Wade is healthy Friday, he probably the most expendable.

Wow, I surprised to see the high volume (30%) of Wade sales last night. Even if he had a DNP last night, as of today MIA still has the most games (16) between now and the ASB (tied with NOR). It will be interesting to see how many come back this week thru rotations for the dense schedule. With so many guard options tho it may be hard to find room for some teams to add him if they don't have flex. That makes him an interesting difference maker each night.

Trying to decide on keeping Duncan thru 1/16 (B2B) or trading him now for Camby, G Wallace or Z Randolph. Hate the fact he gets rest on the back end of a B2B. Any of those would free up more cash, but I'm afraid Duncan might play in both and do well.

Moving back to Lebron early looks like an option for you M4L.

I plan on holding TD until 1/21 when he goes to Pau ( who I hope is healthy ). I doubt he sits 2nd of every B2B, at least not til later in the season. So unless I'm wrong, he seems a sure bet to play through 1/20.

I'm one of the Wade sellers. I didn't like the sore wrist ( and two sore-wristed crap games by his standards ), it was a late game, and so be it. I got Baron, made some money, but it also left me enough cash to move Gallinari => Lebron today. I kind of like that, and it was the driving force behind the move. I kind of figured Wade would play once I sold him. Other than last night I feel Baron can put up Wade like numbers for 2/3's the cost. Time will tell

I'll likely get Wade back, maybe from Nash. I'll need to replace him anyway in 2 weeks.

Duncan to Noah for me.... there are two holes in the Chicago schedule over the next 45 days... but over that period they outplay everyone in number of games...

Too many question marks in my mind right now to do any longer term planning... For me to get Lebron tonight I would need to make three trades and I do see him being work that with his luke warm schedule... If I could get there with one (like M4L!) I would feel differently.

Thinking I'll use the $3+M to upgrade Gallinari this week... maybe?

M4L,
Updating Wright is probably a better idea; I didn't see him hiding there before (LOL).... Beasley -- For his $4M price tag, he is averaging 27TSNP. With his upcoming schedule, if he was averaging 30 I'd be in love with this guy. I think I want to ride out the current 'Rodney Dangerfield' of fantasy hoops?

Dave R,
I've been thinking about Gallinari to Lebron all day. Maybe a little too lateral of a move for me (LMAO!). But the more I think about it I think that move has a shot at turning out OK for you.

For my plans I'm thinking, Westbrook to Evans (not sure when? but
money is probably better sooner than later) then West to Lebron
1/19... That only leaves about $1M to upgrade Gallinari. I'm
looking something similar to what Dave R did with him! Surely I'll

Duncan/Wright >>> Z-Bo/S-Jax. Wish I had a few more minutes to spare last night, but it's done now. Jennings > Evans crossed my mind too, but I don't want to go tradeless.

Not sure what I should do with Beasley. 2 days off, but his sched is great thru 2/6. J Howard plays tomorrow, but an average sched. Has to a F or C. Ugh

I am glad there are only 2 games today and nobody I want to consider from Casspi is playing on those four teams.

Option A
Durant was acquired from Duncan on Wed for four games and enough bank existed to turn him into James but that leaves limited options for Casspi money wise

Option B
Continue to ride with Durant and another mid range stud like Pau next week allowing a significant increase in options for Casspi.

Will James continue to average 60 like he did for the last 15 days or will he return to 52-55 like he had been all year? I really like the idea of having only one cheapie (Frye) on my team.

Casspi(18-20) + James (56-62) vs
Durant (42) vs mid range ? (36-40)

or is it more realistic

Casspi (18-20) + James (52-55)
Durant 42 vs mid range ? 33-35

If James had 4 games every week, would probably go with that but his three game week and the chance to add stud games has me confused.

G - I would think "Durant 42 vs mid range ? 33-35" would be the safer way to go. No telling what Casspi is going to do with K-Mart back, but he will for sure lose money the next couple of days.

Just watched the Vikes dominate the Cowboys. I thought the Vikes would win but I thought it would be close.

To this James thing, which is driving me crazy. I see 2/18 as the date he will be on my team no matter what. Between now and then he (using 15 day @ 56 which is realistic) he projects to 677. Casspi projects to 384 (which I would guess is high given his sitaution now). That is $14 mil worth of RV for roughly 1050 pts.

During that same time, I see a number of 6-7 million guys that when combined together add up to around 1200 or more so I think James is out for now.

That means $ will be availble to upgrade Casspi today using reserves on this team. On my others, I may wait until early next week to when some money becomes free to move him then.

moved all my Casspi's tonight. Maggette was my number one guy. His last 30 days are tough to overlook at just over $4 and the GSW's are finding it hard to dress 8 each night so pt should not be an issue. One hour to reconsider but feel as good about this as I can given the situation.

Wish I had seen this before freeze:

Coach Alvin Gentry is considering starting Robin Lopez over Channing Frye for Monday's game against the Grizzlies.
With Marc Gasol and Zach Randolph down low for the Griz, it makes sense that Gentry wants a big body down low to help out. And while it's debatable whether Lopez has created a timeshare after Friday's 31-minute, 11-point, six-rebound, and six-block outing, Frye's owners may want to start selling high.

$4ltr,

Yeah with the healthy players playing all those minutes in GS, it certainly could be a health issue for them too. I certainly thought about that.

Not sure I will get too excited about Frye just yet with the 5 game week coming up assuming this is only one game thing if it even happens but I will be watching closely.

I still beleive in Santa and the 5 game week. I fully expect Frye, Nash and other Suns to get buys from the casual player who gets new trades on Wed and only looks short term.

Your point is a 5 in 7 is a 5 in 7 regardless of Wed to Wed or a Sun to Sun, but there are managers (tho far less these days) who look at schedules weekly.

There were Christmas presents by the fire place and there will be cash money in the bank on Wed

Is Frye a must-sell at this point? Just don't see how he's gonna get the PT now with Lopez in the rotation. Only F or C option for under 3.2 is Dalembert. Anyone else worth a shot?

My investment in Suns has been a huge bust so far. I got cute and went A'mare instead of Jamison and have paid dearly for it. Even with Phoenix's upcoming schedule, I would love to move him for Wade, but I don't have the roster flex to do it. And Nash to Wade is way too lateral. Hopefully, the return home and some cupcake opponents reverses the downward trends for my PHO guys.

That said, not even home cooking can save Frye; moved him today for Hibbert, who should make a pile of $ today.

Btw, any other Casspi owners tempted to move him for R. Lopez heading into the 5-game week?

Decided to go against Dalembert. Chose Barnes over Varejao. Barnes has better 7 & 15-day stats is cheaper and has a good sched.

Manifesto...

Frye is a dead man. No matter if he's gonna get PT on this sched, he'll lose 300K the next two days. I'm going into Martell Webster and losing a game 'cause I can use the flex and in spite of his 200K gain in the last two days he still only has 59 owners.

The other main thing affecting me right now is the realization that Kobe is unownable. I had planned to get him from Nash at some point this week, but that's blown up. Now I'm effectively gonna replace him in my plans with LeBron. I suppose I can go back to Kobe from LeBron in a couple weeks if he's recovered, but for now Kobe's worthless. Webster's flex would allow me to trade Nash for whomever I want the following Wed.

Today: Frye >>> Webster/ Durant >>> LeBron

We'll gametime Crash on Wed. and brace for the next flurry of injuries.

Hibbert continues to be a risky buy, but anything's better than Frye. Lopez is too much of a lateral move for my tastes. Dalembert seems a pretty safe option in spite of the Clementesque humanitarian trip.

GL all...

This Hibbert/Dalembert decision feels oddly reminiscent of my aforementioned A'mare/Antawn debacle. One guy clearly safer, but also more widely held (Dalembert) and another with lower ownership and (at least short term) schedule that is superior.

These are the decisions that, in the end, make or break a season. Same position, roughly same money. And I've been on the wrong end of them for most of the season this year.

Over years of playing this game, I've grown accustomed to weighing the effects of schedule density, travel, quality of opponent, playing time factors, likelihood of suspension and even the possibility that the birth of a child will take a player away from his team on the day of a game. But how does one factor in the mental, physical and emotional impact of taking a day trip to one's homeland in the caribbean to assist in relief efforts after a natural disaster of catastrophic proportions?

I'll certainly be rooting from Sammy D, but I'm less certain that he'll be on my team when the Pacers tip off tonight.

Hibbert at 21% ownership -- Dalembert at 12%

Only option for me would be Frye to a Matt Barnes... that just feels like a wasted trade to me.

Ownership on players like Hibbert are most likely inflated because of the Nov rush and some managers may not be active. I would imagine Dalembert is accurate and the active ownership of each is probably close.

Jennings, Nash, Wade, Paul
Beasley, Jackson, Barnes, Jamison
Hibbert, Randolph.

Taking a look at the upcoming week, not sure I have to make any moves. Would be nice to get Pau, but the only way into him is Nash or a combo of Jamison and another player. Jennings is a maybe on 1/24, but not sure. Probably best to bank trades?
