OC Fantasy Basketball Week 1 Scoring/Chatter Thread

  • Mulva
    Mine was off too. Had one too many rebounds and one too few steals.

    I'm planning to go back through mine Sunday night to confirm all the totals.

    Haha I figured it was something like that.

    I picked players from the most inactive teams in the country so far, so that's not helping. Some of my teams only play one game in the first eight days of the season. Stupid. But my final pick of the draft continues to absolutely destroy any chance I have in this thing. I really do hate myself for that.

    Only Week 1 Rec. This thing is a marathon.

    True, birddog.

    Turned on the DePaul game on FS2 awhile ago to check out Cleveland Melvin and the first thing the announcer says is, "Melvin gutting it out tonight on a bum ankle," which he apparently sprained midway through the first half. I mean, really. Fuck. Lol. After scanning this thread, it's amazing how so many of the guys we picked have something going wrong for them already this year, be it suspension, transfer, injury or lack of PT.

    Rec, I'm not far behind you. Joe Jackson hasn't even played a game yet. Mitch McGary hasn't either. Bryce Dejean Jones was also suspended in his first game.

    It should even out later, just one week.
  • Mulva
    Spencer Dinwiddie has had a shitty first week. Shot the ball terribly for 3 games and I don't think he put up 25 or more fantasy points in any of them.

    Joseph. Young.

    I dont know how many of you had him on your draft boards, but thank God he was cleared by the NCAA a few picks before mine so I could take him in the 8th round. Just poured in 51.5 pts for a week 1 total (2 games) of 80.3
  • GOONx19
    ^ I was just hesitant due to him switching to a new team. Obviously I shouldn't have been lol.

    21/35 for 598.75

    I almost took him in round 6 but then I got worried about him switching teams and so I took a F then I went with Desmar Jackson and Duren over him for Guards. Obviously regretting it. With the way Akil Mitchell is playing I really should have just taken him in the 6th haha. Good pick for you though.

    As for my team only had one game played yesterday so I'm at 695.25 points with 24 out of 41 games played.

    I have 6 games tonight so hopefully I get a few huge games.
  • reclegend22
    After tallying up my player stats from last night, I'm at 409.75 through 16 games.
  • Azubuike24
    Randle w/monster numbers...even with 12 turnovers. That's about 30% of my entire team!
  • reclegend22
    One of the biggest toss-ups I had during the entire draft was choosing between D'Aneglo Harrison and Sean Kilpatrick. Kilpatrick has 70 through two games, while Harrison knotted about 35 in his only game thus far. Those guys are almost the same exact player. Weird.

    Wouldve been a HUGE risk that early since the NCAA hadnt cleared him to play this year. I think they cleared him towards the start of the 7th round (like 2 picks after me) and I was able to still get him coming back around in the 8th.

    The reason I wasnt hesitant is because Oregon is pretty much Transfer U right now. All their guys come in and start and play well and pretty much are integrated right in.

    birddog- I have you at 597.50.

    rec- I have you at 17 games played and 467.75 points. I think you might be missing McCrea's game? (Which is the 58 points difference from your score to mine)

    goon- I have 754 for you as well.
  • Terry_Tate
    I need to have a night to get my spreadsheet all going. I'm so jealous you have all of the scores and games and everything, haha. I think I'm one of the guys that has a decent shot at winning this week so I'd love to know where I stand heading into Sunday.

    McCrea had a near 60-point game? Damn lol. Didn't know he played last night.

    Just checked the box score. 31 and 14. Finally, the plan is falling into place. Ha.

    Thanks.

    Yeah today has been a slow day at work. I'm going to have to find a way to get excel on my computer at home as I'm just to vested in getting all the scores done. It's even worse today I printed off team schedules for everyones players and have them all in seperate folders...

    As for your team Terry I got you at 760 points with 23/37 played. You also currently have the most points.
  • reclegend22
    I'd only have to average 48 points for my next six games to catch Terry's pace. My plan apparently wasn't as good as his lol.

    Good catch, I missed that Dwayne Evans played last night. And I have nothing going on tomorrow night so far so may relax and work on this. Sounds like a lovely Friday night, lol.

    My big dogs have performed and I've gotten a couple huge games from late picks. Cady Lalanne with 47 points in the opener was a stunner and Pierria Henry from Charlotte has been awesome. Very glad I found him for my first utility pick because Shannon Scott was my second utility pick all along, haha.

    ILT,

    Use your first post on this thread (third post overall) to post the scores as you have them updated. That way it's easy to go to the first page and see the scores. That's what I'm planning on doing once I get things rolling.
  • SportsAndLady
    I just may finish dead last in this thing

    Done.

    Also yeah Terry your team has been pretty beast. I hate myself because passed on both of the centers you took(even thought they were 1 and 2 on my remaining list) for someone else who I thought could breakout and he has been terrible. I think that Herny pick if he continues to be this good could end up being the best pick in the draft.

    S&L maybe overall but definitely not for the first week.
