#NBASuperCoach wk23 we did it! Coop was a nice POD in the top 1%, sadly got injured but did enough before that to keep the lead. won’t ever win the AFL format, so it’s nice to get something out of doing SC every year.

@MichaelHoskin2 cheers mate! fingers crossed 🤞

@stephenriosa Huge mate. Best of luck for avoiding the restings this week. Hope you can take it out!

#NBASuperCoach wk23 team thought hard about who’s likely to play all games. looped Paolo to be safe, trading in Furphy’s mate Essengue after P5’s 37. been rotating Coop/Bron/Kawhi, Coop there for now. DAL tanking but think they’ll let him play out the season. hope Wemby is ok.

#NBASuperCoach wk22 a week to go and sitting 1st. didn’t think we’d rise with some of these gross scores but we take it. big decisions to make with lots of factors to consider. Luka the obvious out, will have to think about the other two trades.

#NBASuperCoach wk22 trades have the 10 most common players in top 1% which is a bit of a shame, but didn’t wanna pass up these options. Scottie was a must, Maxey back and straight away getting ridiculous mins, Harden consistent and good schedule. looping Wemby after his 57.

#NBASuperCoach wk21 up to 2nd, 38pts behind 1st. massive week from Sengun to help carry the team, big pod in the top 1%. no Scottie the only real blemish. keeping Jokic on the bench, have enough cash to do trades as normal. happy to keep Luka for 3 even with the suspension.

#NBASuperCoach wk20 up to 3rd after a solid week, though a few underwhelming scores considering the games played. Jaylen and Amen would’ve been nice. Cade and JJ injuries change the trade plan, holding Book and keeping on the bench. trades: Cade > Shai JJ > Amen KAT > Sengun

#NBASuperCoach wk19 decent week, but we stay at 5th. could’ve gained some ground if Jamal just showed up vs the Lakers smh. trade plan changes with Kawhi and Ant out. Ant goes, Kawhi to the bench. maybe adds a tiny bit of variety ? trades: Giannis > JJ Wolf > Paolo Ant > Book

#NBASuperCoach wk18 rough week, getting further away from top spot. went w/ Giannis over KAT, poor judgement w/ him sitting out half of the b2b. brought in Maxey when JB was ruled out, unlucky there. KPJ and Cade injuries tough too. trades: KPJ > Ant Alpi > KAT Maxey > Murray

#NBASuperCoach wk17 good week despite JJ and Don injuries. KPJ over Reaves the right call, Max covered Kawhi nicely. KAT likely in with NY b2b 4’s. looking at Jaylen or even Shai despite 3 games. could go Reaves with LA’s schedule, but just not doing enough for me to go there.

#NBASuperCoach wk16 1st was nice while it lasted, Coop injury brutal while holding Luka. glad to only drop to 4th and still be in a good position. Coop still questionable, so will trade and not risk it. Max on field for Kawhi who plays 2. debating between Reaves and KPJ.

#NBASuperCoach wk16 trades holding Luka, was between him or keeping VJ. VJ could be lowest score anyway, so thought just keep Luka to help the wk17 team. Wemby and Coop both with 4, thinking more long term with their schedules, plus the ceiling to potentially match 5 gamers.

@wembanyanas yeah nervous on that, but he has been playing b2bs this season, and LA can’t really afford to sit him with DG still out

@stephenriosa Nice one on Kawhi but 2 back to backs scare me for this round haha

#NBASuperCoach wk15 1st overall. long way to go, but unreal to be in this position. Kawhi and Jokic goats, Riley huge on the bench. Shai + Luka have to go, unsure on the 3rd trade w/ Murray injured and maybe Kawhi + JB 3 games. wanna make sure team stays balanced for wk17+18.

#NBASuperCoach wk14 tough week with JJ, JB and Key missing games with injury. 2 spots down not the worst result. make or break decisions now with Jokic back. going with these trades for now. sets me up for wk16, while not handcuffing me for wk17. Jokic in and hope VJ steps up.

@wembanyanas ahh yeah rough start there, hopefully some efficient shooting games from JJ the rest of the week

@stephenriosa Yeah ur right, like Maxey But it also meant I went away from Sengun/Vuc combo and got JJ/Vuc haha

#NBASuperCoach wk13 up to a season-high 4th. kicking myself going Wemby C over Shai, would be 1st if I switched. only 23pts behind though, in a great position. Jalen and JB definite ins, unsure on Wemby to Sengun. KAT an option, but don’t like the inconsistency. 5.7M itb.

@wembanyanas it’s alright, was the safe play to bring him back in with his form the past week. majority would have him i reckon

@stephenriosa Was happy selling JJ at 20.5 mill 3 weeks ago and got sucked right back in! Ugh

#NBASuperCoach wk13 trades paid up and brought in Giannis. Coop came back, but still trading him to accomodate my trade plan and next week’s team. focus is now on planning for Jokic’s eventual return, while continuing to try and maximise the number of games played on field.
