Apollo_87 459 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Noel is really valuable in category leagues. What folks often forget in 9-cat/8-cat leagues is that you don't need to win ALL categories. Being comfortable with being mediocre/bad in a single category can make a huge difference and get you tons of value, especially if that category is one that everyone chases after, like points. I have Draymond, Noel and Justin Holiday on my team (all of whom are projected to be 4th-6th rounders when punting points). They shore up multiple categories - asts, stls, blks while not necessarily hurting you anywhere (cause they don't turnover the ball much and any weakness in FG/FT doesn't hurt cause of low volume). Them coupled with my existing team - I basically want into every H2H matchup knowing with fair certainty that I'm going to win 3 categories at least before a single game is played. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

In roto you can be weak in a category or two. But a difference between getting a 5 or a 6, than a 2 or a 3. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

justblazedawg 122 Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 Thibs is hands down the worst ******** coach. Makes sense he’s a perfect pairing for the worst franchise. His closing lineup today: Taj Gibson, Randle, Payton, Rose, Barett they made mistakes over and over threw the game away but he just stuck with them. Payton is dreadful. Gibson?!?! Is it 2013? Rose is washed. What the f--- is going on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Exactly, it’s about the W’s for the Knicks. Love this line from Noel honestly. More valuable than a 10 and 9 with 1 block that’s for sure. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Obliviate 159 Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 That's 4 sexy stocks given the opportunity he had. I wouldn't be so greedy after just picking him off the wire again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
beejay6020 194 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 41 mins & knicks winning games/above .500. great efficiency and some stocks. prob bit greedy wanting another few stocks with those mins at least hes maintaining that solid value Quote Link to post Share on other sites
L3onD 870 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 probably will see over 30+ mins each night if taj is injured (with randle soaking some of those center minutes too) and hes been playing really really well Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rocky7st 87 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 Thibs really must tell his C to not give away fouls. Was expecting more stocks with the increase in min but it's more just been consistent stocks. *Greedy owner* Quote Link to post Share on other sites
