I picked up Anthony Randolph for tomorrow? Do you think he will be good?
Hello Muntradamus and the Beastdome community,
At the current moment, I am in a state of quandary… My team is strong when healthy and confident, but seeing Kevin Love going down today with a concussion and hospitalization does not excite me (hope he is alright, keeping him in prayers). Furthermore, LeMarcus Aldridge might be shut down for the season; Greg Monroe declining due to inaccuracy problems; Ty Lawson being outplayed by Andre Miller at times; Dwight is being aggravating; DeRon Williams not playing at full potential… sorry for my rant. Digressing, if you guys have the time, of course, could you check out my team and current situation progressing forward in this finals matchup? I’m down by 100 points in a H2H league against a person whom got extremely lucky from waiver wire. (I am The Divine Legends facing the Corpus Christi Pelicans)

Thanks, if y’all could suggest any free agents I could pick up from the players menu that would be incredible (depending if I should drop doubtful players). I appreciate everyone’s word of advice and thanking everyone in advance.
Benevolently,
Scream aka Garrett
Wow don’t really know who to drop that’s really a tough call. But you should try to squeeze points out of Granger and Barea
I personally like Derrick Williams more. D-Will go into the PF spot, while Randolph mostly plays center. If Nikola is weak again tomorrow, then look for Randolph to have a big game.
D-Will is the much safer selection.
Garrett your team needs a makeover. Quick, and I am here to help.
Ramon Sessions is Waiver Wire material in this league as he is not being a consistent option.
I would drop him for Granger who will be an immediate upgrade.
I would also drop Greg Monroe who is far too inconsistent as of late, I would add Goran Dragic who is still playing 40+ Minutes and being an elite fantasy option. Once you notice that Kyle Lowry is getting more minutes than Dragic, then add Lowry.
Then once you hear LaMarcus Aldridge is out for the season, you can pick up the red hot Jamal Crawford. He is starting to tear it up.
D-12 should be back to man handle your center position, and knowing K-Love he will be back after this Thursday game.
———————————————————————————————————————–
THAT IS YOUR LONG TERM PLAN.
THIS IS YOUR SHORT TERM PLAN
THURSDAY
If you need a one game Sub, go for Derrick Williams Thursday night and drop Ramon Sessions since you cannot pick up Granger until Friday.
FRIDAY
If you like what Williams brings you, and Greg Monroe disappoints while K-Love will be out multiple games. Then Drop Monroe and add Granger. Keep Williams.
Then once you hear about Aldridge, you can make the move for Crawford, or Dragic. If Dragic is still playing 35+ Minutes, then he is the guy to add.
Keep me updated, WIN THIS CHAMPIONSHIP!
