Buy low / Sell high 2018-2019
socal.trades714@yahoo.com replied to 23_gaby_23's topic in Fantasy Basketball Talk
I have the same thoughts as well. Not to mention Love coming back. -
Jeff Teague 2018-2019 Season Outlook
socal.trades714@yahoo.com replied to fabrar's topic in Fantasy Basketball Talk
Buy-low? Or is the ankle going to be a lingering concern? Not to mention the Rose / Thibs bromance factor. I had really high hopes for Teague finishing with mid round value (or higher) but there are a lot of new variables in play this season. What do you guys think? -
DeAndre Ayton 2018-2019 Season Outlook
socal.trades714@yahoo.com replied to Trench Mob's topic in Fantasy Basketball Talk
Agreed. Player A: 62% fg, 79% ft, 16.5 pts, 10.5 rebs, 2.5 assists, 0.7 steals, 0.9 blocks Player B: 54% fg, 84% ft, 15.3 pts, 11.8 rebs, 2.1 assists, 0.4 steals, 0.5 blocks Player A is Ayton, ranked 35. Player B is Enes Kanter, ranked 82. There is a tendency to overlook the significance of defensive stats because .5 vs .9 may not appear to be a huge gap, however, it is quite significant. 1.1 Blks is the difference between a top 30 player vs a mid round player. If Enes Kanter got an additional 1.1 BLKs per game, he'd be a top 20 player. -
Ricky Rubio 2018-2019 Season Outlook
socal.trades714@yahoo.com replied to det_tigers's topic in Fantasy Basketball Talk
I thought that's the whole idea of buying low... to send out offers before he turns it up second half. Also, I think to disregard other variables is short sighted. For instance, an owner who has been consistently losing and can't wait for the second half turn around. It's fantasy basketball, people panic. Doubts creep in and people make silly moves. That's how buying-low usually works.. -

I agree with Draymond Green. His value can't be much lower. -
Jarrett Allen 2018-19 Season Outlook
socal.trades714@yahoo.com replied to Stefan's topic in Fantasy Basketball Talk
I wonder, will his usage increase as the season progresses? I would love to see a consistent 30-32 minutes out of him. If he gets that, he may have that break out we were all hoping for. -
Stephen Curry 2018-19 Season Outlook
socal.trades714@yahoo.com replied to buboytorre's topic in Fantasy Basketball Talk
Warriors are fine. That's why they are taking their time with Curry. They know that barring catastrophe, they are going to cruise to the conference finals and probably a championship. Media just needs things to talk about in November and December, but come playoff time, I really don't see a team on the West that is giving them any problems. Everyone else is fighting for second place. -
Ricky Rubio 2018-2019 Season Outlook
socal.trades714@yahoo.com replied to det_tigers's topic in Fantasy Basketball Talk
Think you got bigger problems than fantasy basketball mate. That being said, I think Ricky will turn it around. If I remember correctly, he's a second half of the season type of player anyways. He's on my buy-low list... like low -
Buy low / Sell high 2018-2019
socal.trades714@yahoo.com replied to 23_gaby_23's topic in Fantasy Basketball Talk
This. He was drafted at his ceiling, but I say he still has a chance to finish top 30-40 which is still a buy-low considering where he's at right now. He can definitely improve upon his current numbers. -

Not sure if serious. -
Buy low / Sell high 2018-2019
socal.trades714@yahoo.com replied to 23_gaby_23's topic in Fantasy Basketball Talk
LaMarcus Aldridge a buy low? His FG% has really brought down his value, but he is otherwise performing well in his other categories. -
Eric Bledsoe 2018-2019 Fantasy Outlook
socal.trades714@yahoo.com replied to PaddyAustralia's topic in Fantasy Basketball Talk
This is exactly where I have him. Lots of ball handlers ins Milwaukee and some nights the ball is going to be dominated by the hot hand. There is a big difference between 2 3's and 2 stls per night vs 1.5 and 1.5. which is closer to what he will average in 30 minutes. I would love a top 30 finish, but I think 40-50 range is where he will be at barring an injury to Middleton, Brogdon or Giannis. -
Mitchell Robinson 2018-19 Season Outlook
socal.trades714@yahoo.com replied to JP_Grizzly's topic in Fantasy Basketball Talk
Depends what you consider a breakout. I think he has room to improve, but he's still so raw and will be up and down all season. -

Markkanen a buy-low target? Seems close to return. -

You are a hero. -
Draymond Green 2018-2019 Season Outlook
socal.trades714@yahoo.com replied to Quazza's topic in Fantasy Basketball Talk
KD is leaving if they win this year. He did what he came to do winning 3 championships and 2-3 finals MVPs. He's aiming to claim the title of best player in the world and won't be able to do that on GSW. He'll need to be the clear cut #1 option on his own team to do that and I imagine he will continue following the LeBron route and try to take his own team to the finals. KD may be the best player on GSW, but the Warriors are Steph's team. I was living in Oakland during their reign and the Bay loves Curry. Ain't no one buying KD t-shirts out there. -
Successful Trades 2018-2019
socal.trades714@yahoo.com replied to wisegeeks's topic in Fantasy Basketball Talk
Trades I won: My: Jimmy Butler + Doncic for James Harden Trades I lost: My: WCJ for OPJ (good move by OPJ owner early in the season. Gotta give him props. This trade still burns pretty bad) Yet to be seen: My: Gallinari for JJJ (I typically always try to move injury prone players for stability or upside) My: Brook Lopez for Gordon Hayward (Lopez has been going off, recently so I've been feeling stupid, but it happens). -
Caris LeVert 2018-2019 Season Outlook

This. I don't have him, but my sentiments exactly. I hope he has a speedy recovery. -
Otto Porter 2018-2019 Season outlook
socal.trades714@yahoo.com replied to Jake the snake's topic in Fantasy Basketball Talk
I know the move is to hold, but I am really trying to move OPJ and not have to deal with this headache. I'm really just looking for one or two big games in a row to package him off. -
Otto Porter 2018-2019 Season outlook
socal.trades714@yahoo.com replied to Jake the snake's topic in Fantasy Basketball Talk
Any chance of a trade? This is extremely frustrating. -
Otto Porter 2018-2019 Season outlook
socal.trades714@yahoo.com replied to Jake the snake's topic in Fantasy Basketball Talk
Selling low is simply not a smart move. Buying low might not be a good idea, but selling low is a terrible idea. His value can't get much worse than these last couple games. Wait for a decent line and try to sell. -

WTF.. no 4th quarter minutes? Tilt... -
Shai-Gilgeous Alexander 2018-19 season outlook
socal.trades714@yahoo.com replied to dboong's topic in Fantasy Basketball Talk
Definitely worth it for the upside. Just expect the ups and downs of holding a rookie on a team that is competing. He's been shooting the 3ball well and if he can manage one 3 a game, he will be a solid PG with great defensive stats that won't hurt you anywhere. Patience is the key with this one. -
Eric Bledsoe 2018-2019 Fantasy Outlook
socal.trades714@yahoo.com replied to PaddyAustralia's topic in Fantasy Basketball Talk
Yes! Just picked him up and I don't really care about the scoring, so long as he gets 3's, assists, and defensive numbers. Definitely, think he can get back to 1.5 stls per game. -
Montrezl Harrell 2018-2019 Season Outlook
socal.trades714@yahoo.com replied to 12345game10's topic in Fantasy Basketball Talk
When I say sell high, I mean if Harrell is performing at a top 50 level currently, I would make the offer for someone who has shown that they can finish at a top 60-70 level. The appeal to that owner would be that if he believed Harrell is going to maintain his current production (top 50) he would in theory "win" that trade. Whereas for the owner selling high, he mitigates risk of that player regressing, thus selling high. The question on who is buying is has much to do with which owner thinks Harrell can maintain or exceed his current performance.
