buboytorre 35 Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 8 hours ago, alclayno said: So with all things considered after Jimmy did what he did... where are you guys drafting KAT now? Have the 3rd pick in a 14 team 10 cat (9 cat + OREB) league on Sunday, and I'm almost certain that AD will for sure be gone by the time I draft, so I'm probably going to end up deciding between Harden, KAT, and Giannis. What would be the top four in that format? Edit: I'm having difficulty with these 14 team mocks drafting Giannis and making a decent punt FT% team afterwards, so it probably won't be him... but also can't find enough rebounds and blocks drafting Harden in a punt FG% & TO format. ci I am also having a hard time deciding who to pick using my 3rd Pick.. I think AD and Giannis will be our 1-2nd Pick so I need to decide between Harden and KAT.. Im leaning toward KAT but due to this circus happening in Minn I kinda hesitant...

KAT has the ability to dominate every game just like the Brow, but he doesn't. I'd almost go Harden with the pick. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I had the 3 in mine and wanted harden but got left with AD. Wouldn’t touch Kat over those 3 imo Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Crazycanto 1,260 Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 At this guys full potential he should be hugging the 3 spot right after AD and Giannis. Being prone to possible duds and some uninspired lines (Points and rebounds only) which only get magnified when making such a big investment really has to make you think when a top 5 mainstay like KD or Curry is still there. "Upside" and "breakout" are thrown around everywhere here. "Boring" and "steady" should be getting more love. 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Agreed, except there is a better chance Mr. Boring will play every game in the playoffs while guys like KD/Curry are very likely to be rested a few games late and possibly shut down dealing with an "injury" towards the end of the season. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
alclayno 33 Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 So with the third pick... what's the consensus here? Imo, it's obviously AD at 1. 2 is where it gets tricky... because you could do Giannis or Harden, but for a league with OREB as a category, it's so hard building around Harden and still being competitive in rebounds and blocks. So assuming AD and Giannis are gone with the first two picks... do you roll with Harden or KAT? Or someone that fits multiple builds like Steph? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jake the snake 1,749 Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 This has to be the funniest board this summer. He sent from solid top 5 to people saying pick him over AD when the Jimmy thing went down. Then people stressing about rose to now Jimmy still being around and the team a disaster and towns being drop city... Lol Almost as fun as watching the actual minny situation.

heatnation 29 Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 just so everyone is clear KAT was brilliant last year as the fourth option behind Butler, Wiggins & Gibson. He did brilliant, no doubt had games like that last pre season game but ultimately when all the stats were collated at the end of his 82 GAMES, he was brilliant. What is the problem? What is different to suggest he cant handle what he has handled before. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

scienze 102 Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Just spent $72 on him in my auction league....with double-doubles as a category, I'm pretty excited to see what he can do, especially once jimmy butler is traded. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thibs' idiotic coaching. KAT under a coach like Carlisle would be incredible. Having said that Carlisle can be a bit of a hardass so he might break KAT. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Saucy 198 Posted October 18, 2018 Author Share Posted October 18, 2018 3 Shots. 3. Are you freaking kidding me? It's laughable. Dieng, Tyus Jones, and D Rose have all taken more. Wiggins has 12. Jimmy has 13. Its a joke. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Stallion 278 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 I only own KAT in 2 of my 8 leagues this year, but it honestly makes me so mad every year how little the Wolves use him, even from a real life standpoint. It's clear that alongside Jimmy Butler, he's your best offensive option. Treat him like it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ejaggit 160 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 (edited) Think I might consider trading him. I don't get why he just doesn't be more assertive and take possessions away from Wiggins. Home boy was like this last year too. It irritates me.

It was the first game of the season. I promise he will have value... Jimmy WILL get traded and KAT may have a career year when that happens.
