AndreSplash 211 Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 He does seem dedicated to being well rounded. He has nice form on his jumper and doesn't seem to currently shoot too many 3s where it would impact his FG% too much. I think ATL getting more talent could actually help spread the floor for Collins to go to work in the post and PnR. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Trench Mob 1,695 Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 Hopefully the Hawks will not try to make something out of him that he's not. He's not a Center. He's a natural forward. If you want him out there at the 5 while the opponent is deploying small ball, sure. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DZaak 159 Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 I love him. I some how got him at 36 on ESPN. Be careful in H2H though. Atlanta probably have the worst or 2nd worst fantasy playoff schedule. I'm looking for him to smash it, then I'll trade half way through the season for equal value.

He has a 3/4/3 so it’s really not that bad. Assuming your league/leagues end on March 29th which seems to be the vast majority from what I’ve seen. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DZaak 159 Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 I was looking all the way to the last week on the schedule grid. eg. below https://g.espncdn.com/s/fbadraftkit/2019-20/2019-20FBAWeeklySchedule.pdf Yes, I'm not sure when my league ends. Playoffs start Week 22 and it's 1 week per playoff round for me (3 rouns) so it makes sense to end on week 24 (the week after March 29). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
COBBLEPOT 379 Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 if you saw him play irl last season, you know what a beast he is. his potential is unlimited tbh. took him 29th overall in my 10-team h2h. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
blob2004 223 Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 I cannot justify taking a big man without stocks in the first four rounds. He's basically just an unleashed Enes Kanter, which is not bad by the way, but you would be very behind on stocks if you had him in your first four. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You can add scoring/rebounding/assists/3pm in your game as you progress, but I've rarely seen someone allergic to stocks get better as they grow. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You're not wrong, but Collins went through a historic dearth of stocks last Nov-Dec that is unlikely to be repeated. That skewed his averages down. Now I know you'll say "Well, that's why averages account for highs and lows, it all matters". And again, you wouldn't be wrong. But you have to assume he won't go through a two month stock desert this month, so his stocks will be higher than last year, and he won't be Blake-like in that respect. Just my guess, anyway.

COBBLEPOT 379 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 ^i agree with unc..he averaged about a block and a half in march and april. doubt he averages less than a block this year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

watertro88 1 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 I think Collins will have a third year improvement and slight increase from last year's stats but nothing crazy. Collins is the Hermes version of Randle. 55%/76%/1/21/10/2/0.5/1.1/2 TO Collins's stocks should return to what aligns with his rookie season or last year post-ASB. Percentages drops slightly because teams will have defensive scheme for Trae-Collins pick n roll, as indicated in preseason. I do think that Collin's ADP (Round 3) is where his value is, and I continue to draft him because I simply like Collins very much. Picked him up from waiver when he was rookie and drafted him last year in 5th round (12 Team), very solid as a first or second center on your roster. 😁 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MFNunique 21 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 I took a gamble and decided to pick him as one of my keepers, hoping for another big year! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jorgo 66 Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 Only 11mins in 1st half is a concern. No foul trouble or matchup issues. Jabari w 13mins Quote Link to post Share on other sites
