beejay6020 203 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 big last quarter, was in foul trouble all game and picked up his 5th early in the fourth, so will happily take the 5 stocks and 100% fg especially up against capela/collins Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Never a good rebounder. How is that 25 mins a game prediction going for you champ? 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Noel hurts you no where and Thibs is trusting him. Helps that they have won b2b games since he has been starting. Keep the faith brother! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lol. yes I am fully aware that consistent defensive stats (rebounds, steals and blocks ... tell me what the other 2 are) are hard to find in the waiver wire, hence why I took a chance and traded for Nerlens prior to him playing as the starter in last night's game without knowing his minutes usage. As I stated on my post, I am NOT being negative but rather setting expectations. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Your expectations were pretty bad. It was pretty apparent he was going to play more than 25 mins when the back up center is Taj Gibson... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

As I stated on my post, I am NOT being negative but rather setting expectations. but everyone is already aware of his limitations....no one expects a 20-10 line, they are here for the stocks and fg%...whether he gets 5, 10 or 15 points is irrelevant, it just adds more to his value...i started benching ayton in favor of noel/poeltl (although poeltl is out for the next 4 games but you know what i mean) cause i lose out more in ayton’s inability to get defensive stats than his ability to accumulate points and boards Edited February 16 by L3onD 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

These are elite defensive numbers for fantasy purposes and have a ton of value. Don’t put so much weight into counting stats (pts reb ast). There are other categories to play. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yes and I’ve said these stats are hard to find in the waiver wire, thus the reason I traded for him with expectations that Nerlens will conservatively produce some resemblance to past performance averages. Never did I mention points, rebs and assists as it is obvious that’s never been his forte. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jordan62345 62 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 If plays well over the next month or so he could retain the starting job even when Mitch returns. We all know Thibodeau loves benching promising young players in favor of vets. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If he wasn't in foul trouble he would have played more. Plus its 8% of playing time based on your ''expectations'' Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EsTiLO 151 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Just added him , need a center due to Poetl being out. I need steals and blocks. Let’s see how he does tonight against Vucevic. Could be in foul trouble early on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
