rackcs Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 (edited) So just to be clear. Despite Diontae Johnson and Taylor Lewan being listed as questionable on the injury report, they will be able to play in BDL this week since they're now on a bye. And then Jonnu Smith who was due to be back this week but wasn't able to play last week will be unavailable. Correct? Or wait, apparently Jonnu did play last week but I didn't realize it for some reason? But still. Edited October 4, 2020 by rackcs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EaglesPeteC Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 Also, time is a bit of a major issue with me right now. I'm a HS teacher and I am spending triple the amount of time I usually do planning and grading at work. Usually I have time to mess around on here for decent chunk of time at work. That is not the case at least right now. Plus I supplement my salary with after school duties which are all cancelled right now, so I picked up a side job. Not to be one full of excuses, but it's just where I am at right now. I know I've been giving off this "I don't give a crap vibe" but I'm just lost as hell and have way less time than I thought to make myself not lost as hell. I know that is all temporary, but like I said, just trying to be real with where I am at right now 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WFLukic Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 I'm happy to keep you on board. Honestly I think it's fine if you throw the towel in on a few games there's no realistic prospect of you winning in (such as last week). Effort where possible and at least making an effort with waiver pickups and some trades to reshape the roster is plenty for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like Lukic said above, just give some effort where you can and we all get it. As for being lost, that's why I think you should put together at least half *** gameplans so you can practice things and see what works. I'd also try to find some time to really look at some of the gameplans people post to kind of get a feel for how to do things.

They didn’t get me a sub for over a month. So I myself have been trying to make up a lot of work with the distance learning that wasn’t done. So I also understand where both of you are coming from. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoundrel Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 Or just recycle the same one and change the player names at least you are playing against. I think Pickle did that last season a couple of weeks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll figure my life out That sounds great. I really think that if you make waiver wire pickups a priority, make some trades(and feel free to ask someone else if a trade is good value or not), and put in a few gameplans to get an idea of what does and doesn't work, you will be competing very quickly. Just focus on those three things. One side note, we do have a trade deadline midseason and player prices typically go up around then as guys are arming up for a playoff run. So keep that in mind. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
