crocp 630 Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 I just picked him up in a trade (as a side piece, main person was Kawhi), but I am punting blocks and do not need him. Who are some good punt blocks but decent rebs guys that I could reasonably trade for? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I drafted him and was able to swap for Kanter so I dodged a bullet. That being said I just lost blocks and would have won had I not made the trade. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hyperize 21 Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 Traded him for John Collins, coming first in my league and don't need the 3's. Plus I've been benching the geriatric anyway. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

c_dog 156 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 I offered Barnes early in the season and was thankfully rejected! Dude has been underwhelming. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FootballFan101 339 Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 The 2014-2015 Ibaka is certainly not coming back, but I don't get why people are dropping him. Someone just dropped him in my league and I happily picked him up. I'll gladly take a guy who gets 1.5 3PTS and 1.5 BLKS per game, along with a FT% that doesn't kill you (career 75.4% FT...I think his poor current FT% will trend up towards his career norm) for my last roster spot. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Once the free throw percentage normalizes, I think Ibaka will be a top 100 fantasy player. The decline in blocks is for real and has been going on for multiple years but this year's decline in FT% seems really fluky to me. If anything, his year-to-year trend for FT% has been improving each year before this year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SuperHans 180 Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 He is 98 for the year on bbm I could very well see him hitting 60-75 by seasons end with values in blks/3s/%s At worst he stays the same Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Here's his year-by-year FT% trend before this year: 63%, 75%, 66%, 75%, 78%, 84%, 75%, 86% Given this trend, doesn't his current 64% from the line seem really fluky?

Those two times were in the first 3 years of his career. The point I was trying to make is that unlike his blocks which have been trending down for years, his FT% is anything has been getting better with age. So therefore, like I said, I think this year's FT% is fluky and will normalize. 8 hours ago, richg24 said: also, you have to look at the number of free throw attempts, it could be that he is getting to the line very infrequently so far this season and he has shot a low percentage in a small sample set before the law of averages starts to take over... Exactly, that's why I'm saying I think it will normalize by the end of the year. I'd be really surprised if he's not at least 75% FT by the end of the season. Honestly, other than FT%, his numbers look pretty similar to last year when he was a top 50 player. I don't understand why people are dropping him, including someone in one of my leagues. If the FT% normalizes, he's a top 75 player still. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
