Ray Barboni 449 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Lots of weird in here. buddy was a WW pickup. Don’t be mad. Either build your team correctly - trade him, or shut your mouths. the whining about a huge WW pickup is gross. 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ovofnd 545 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 How you gon’ throw dirt on this man’s name? He has 5 DDs in the last 6 games, averaging ~10APG in that span. Y’all crazy man. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

stay_woke 1,186 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Awfully quiet in here after a big game. Seems all some people want do is complain about the production from a waiver pickup. Some of you guys are so weak 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ItzJaBoiSam 122 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Yeah, why are more people interested in complaining about their weak a** FG% than hyping this kid after yet another big game? Learn how to manage your FG% or STFU & GTFO. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
My Dinner With Andre 5,752 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 It is what it is, but his FG% at this volume is historically bad. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IDatDude 1,437 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 (edited) Even if Graham **** the bed 7-8 games straight I’ll never complain...was a WW add that exceeded all expectations...held my team down for half a season. Would be a sad quiet drop lol...but would never bitch or complain. Edited January 5, 2020 by IDatDude 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Monkeyking69 276 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 this dude has kept me climbing in my standings despite all my injuries this year Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Saucy 198 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Feels like he has to have an uptick in FG%... Shooting 36.4% on 2pt shots, after he shot 42.1% on 95 of them last year. Seems like no one can shoot this badly for an extended period of time from two. Maybe, i dont know. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gooseball 62 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Why can’t we complain? Yes he’s from the waiver but it’s true that his fg% is negatively impacting many of us. Don’t shut down the signals - it’s definitely interesting that someone of this level of performance struggles with shooting so bad for so long. It’s a great topic indeed to discuss players and moves that could help different team structures. I drafted Drummond and Gobert as my first 2 picks and with the unexpectedly high number of TOs from these and Graham on the team, I decided to rebuild for 3s and assists. Now my TO isn’t as competitive any more. Fg% can be managed to somewhat above average as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Now my TO isn’t as competitive any more. Fg% can be managed to somewhat above average as well. It's not that people can't complain, it's that the majority of the posts in this thread over the last 10 pages have been about how Graham is frustrating to own because of his bad FG, all the while ignoring how amazingly consistent the rest of his stats have been. Kevin Huerter's thread is 25 pages of people hyped about how good he is, yet he is nowhere near Graham's fantasy value. We are not talking about a perennial star or a proven end of bench guy here. We are talking about a WW add that went undrafted in 100% of all leagues and that we are lucky to even have. You could've ended up picking Kurocks instead of this kid in week 1, you know. Is his FG% bad? Absolutely. Will it get better? Potentially. Can it be managed? Depends on your build. Is your build unable to sustain this FG% drop? Trade and be happy that you were able to get a top 60 player in return out of a WW pickup. Just my $0.02 9 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Saucy 198 Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Do you guys think he's a long term solution for them at guard, or do you think he'll eventually settle into more of a backup role? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He's 24 and has forged a good partnership with Rozier. I'd imagine it's all systems go for him as a long term starter and even centerpiece, barring injury. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Long term for sure. If you can stomach the bad FG% but I can tell that he is adjusting nicely to the double team and trapping (better FG% this week). He is also not afraid to dish it to Rozier to score when Rozier has the hot hand, hence the boost in assist. Graham isn't a mad chucker and that's why I have him and not Rozier Quote Link to post Share on other sites
vnmslsrbms 278 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Trade him to the teams who are lowest in FG% if you are that annoyed by his FG%. By now you know what he is already. Nobody's stupid enough to drop him and he's very trade-able. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kilslo 194 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Basketball reference has him as PG 100% of the time he’s on the court but he has just been given dual eligibility on ESPN lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
