As the current holder of Shaq's contract, I may be interested. I am struggling right now, and I could use a few more of everything...

Micro, I'm not sure I am ready to trade Shaq right now, but I have a few other players I might be willing to give up. What areas are you looking to improve?

Look over my roster and let me know.

Wow, Micro aren't we gettin cocky? lmao!

Mr. "I'll make some trades to make this more competitive"! LMAO!

It's a long season dude. Alot can happen to even the playing field.

By the way fellas....what you need to be looking at is AVERAGE stats not TOTALS. Go to the players section and sort by AVERAGE to see whats really going on. TOTALS can be misleading as a player who has played 10 games versus 20 may seem less dominant, but may in fact actually be more productive per game. TOTALS do not take into account injuries my friends.

It is also important to mention that O-Rank does not stand for "Original" but "Overall" ranking.

According to Yahoo:

"O-Rank = Player's overall Yahoo! Sports ranking (based on current and prior seasons)."

So based on your fantasy studs I see:

Tater -
Arenas ~ Ovr - 11 Avg - 15
Wade ~ Ovr - 6 Avg - 18
Peja ~ Ovr - 16 Avg - 22
Gasol ~ Ovr - 33 Avg - 42
Bibby ~ Ovr - 19 Avg - 44


Micro -
Dirk ~ Ovr - 4 Avg - 8
Kidd ~ Ovr - 13 Avg - 11
B. Davis ~ Ovr - 15 Avg - 19
Richardson ~ Ovr - 36 Avg - 25
R. Davis ~ Ovr - 98 Avg - 27

So basically Micro's top players have performed better this year, but Tater's guys have more "projected" potential based on Yahoo's rankings.

Hope this settles things. lol!

By the way, if Tater won the first battle, then he's right. He technically has the braggin' rights regardless of what the stats show. Advantage Tater!

LOL!

Wooo hoooo ...WTG Motown. I knew I could count on you to talk some sense into this guy.After all, you are the commish in the EXPERT league and we are just novices anyhow, so you can decide all future disputes between us. <---- Motown


<---- Tater <----- Micro

Ha HA Nuke. You LOSE!

I think both of you missed the boat. I'm not trying to demolish everyone. I'm willing to make trades to genuinely make the league more competitive and give everyone a chance to have success.

With some newbies and a couple people who have played before, the autodraft kinda hurt folks and set some people way back.

Like I said, if you want to make a trade and you're under .500, I am willing to listen to relatively reasonable offers. If you are over .500 and kicking butt, I'm going to make you really work for a trade if you want one of my good players.

It's a different paradigm between an experienced league and a league with people who are playing casually without any experience. Not everyone is cut throat. Heck, if I'm in last place and some guy is talking trash, I'm like, "screw this, I don't like this fantasy bball stuff".

You feel me?

Anyone who wants to make a trade, contact me by PM. This thread is getting unproductive. Linwood, I'll drop you a line tonight.

It's all in fun. Besides, I haven't seen anyone talk any smack to teams that are struggling right now.

That auto draft was a killer, and if you'll notice, the teams that are doing well pretty much had the top 4 picks. It's mostly luck, if you ask me.

Sorry for messing up your thread to balance the league with trades. I was just trying to have some lighthearted fun with this.

Go Motown! Jerry! Jerry! Jerry!

I think Micro's team has redeemed itself from that early loss to Tater and then some. But you still have to respect the W from Tater at the time.

I think quite a few of Micro's players are having career years thus far.
Pachulia, R.Davis, Krstic, J.Rich, Hughes

I'm interested to see if they can continue their hot play right throughout the season.

My team is going to go under a major change as well. I have a great All-Star team, but not good Fantasy team.

**However, Lebron James will take a couple of Good Players. Also, Micro what do you think of BoozeR?
