alexstr 762 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Every year I assume this guy is washed and every year he grabs 10+ boards a game on 65%FG+ Added him 1 day before the trade (lucky move), if he can replicate his 8/10 in 22mpg from last year I'll be ecstatic. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mike123456 9 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Scooped. If he gives me 8 points and 10 boards a game that’s fine for the worst guy on my team Quote Link to post Share on other sites
alexstr 762 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 5/7 with 2 blocks on 100% FG 100% FT in the first half. Aight, I can work with that 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mtx 165 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 His FTs actually aren't horrible considering he only shoots a couple per game. I have him on a team with Curry, KAT, Lowry, LaVine so I think he won't hurt me much. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BykeINIT 180 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 missed him in my 12 teamer but got him in my 10 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ellejamil 845 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 (edited) If he keeps shooting that underhand FT% it might not be so bad. However, I think Nets are bringing in a center with their MLE Edited January 14 by ellejamil 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rob0403 1,247 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 I think they will sign a veteran C. Whether that will just push Green out of the C position or harm Jordan's value ... I am not sure. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

the1gq2nvy 217 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 crazy I dished out 30-40 faab in both 12 team leagues and got him. Not sure why people are holding onto their faab so tightly for. In leagues where players are all FA unless dropped your basically saving your faab for times like this when a player gets dropped and situation changes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

No I think that's crazy and regrettable for a player that is likely the worst guy on your team and the most limited guy on your team....and someone you can easily drop and replace a week later. Just me but if youre spending $30 or more it better be a guy you are likely to keep for ROS and playoffs with decent upside. The problem is DJ is he is a dime and dozen, and if you didn't pick up similar guys like Robin Lopez, Theis, Tristan Thompson, Biyombo for cheap or any double double big with 1-2 BLKs then why are you now paying for DJ???

In my 12 man leagues you wont find a starting center with double double potential being dropped and added repeatively. Not to add he has history of good shot blocking. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I ran to the wire on the odd chance he somehow maintains 28 MPG for the rest of the season but I find that unlikely. He is incredibly washed and it was a shame he even started the season ahead of Allen. Whoever they bring in at C will eat up some minutes and keep in mind that Green had to start today because they are low on players after the trade. Dude is only on the team because he's friends with KD and Kyrie. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

All those guys you mentioned are either in timeshare theis and thompson basically cancel each other out. Lopez is historically bad rebounder. Biyombo has zeller due back at any point.

Im just saying how often does someone in your league actually drop someone that is roster worthy? In my 12 man yahoo proleagues with only 13 bench roster then yes faab is worth more specially since everyone goes on waivers each night but in majority of other leagues where its set up that way and benches are deeper you won't get much opportunity to use your faab on anyone decent.

bballmaster 32 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 DJ is a 12 man roster guy for sure. He may be old but no one on the WW will offer consistent double double potential with high fg % and 1-2 blocks. He has the track record to show his upside. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Well Im not going to argue with you for YOUR league and YOUR settings (although it sounds pretty standard to me) since you know better, but I am willing to bet a more worthy FA will be available. It could be a guy someone drops for injury and then comes back in 2 months. Really anything could happen. But if you need a C now, if you need the cats now, if you need to win now then by all means do what is necessary. No one knows the rest of your team to know if you even needed DJ but you know your team best. I just don't feel like DJ is a make or break player but then again $30-$40 isn't make or break either. It's just that if a make or break player does show up then you will only have $60 left when everyone else has $90..... Anyhow best of luck to all of us!!!!!!!!!!!

Dude is only on the team because he's friends with KD and Kyrie. He has a good chemistry with KD you can tell that on certain plays that had that easy pick and roll play. As long as they give him 25 minutes a game... i could care less. He'll produce good amount of rebounds. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Totasef 13 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 He is an easy double double guy now. He ll play 25 minutes on most nights, will get some easy lobs and dunks with Harden and he was always a rebounding specialist. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JohnnyTsunami 303 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 He's only 32, idk why people think he's washed. He bodied Mitchell Robinson last night. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ez2do4now 302 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 DJ will not be a dbl/dbl guy ROS. Not with the big 3 eating and Joe Harris getting the leftovers. Averaging 7pts/9Rebs/1.5Blks with good FG% is more reasonable. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
