The D.O.L.L.A Squad Week 8 Match-Up Vs. Haewon's Alcohol-Free Team

Yahoo Fantasy Basketball H2H 9 Cat 12 Team League

Lillard's Transformation into a Buck COMPLETE with monster display this week!

Week 8 Final Score: 6:3

Me	.489	.865	87	821	254	190	34	39	82	52
	FG%	FT%	3PTM	PTS	REB	AST	ST	BLK	TO	GP
Opponent	.497	.765	52	676	208	131	36	26	81	41

Sucks that the TO was so close but looking at the whole score, I can't complain much.
Absolutely crushed FT%, 3PTM, PTS, and AST as I expected.
Winning REB & BLK is a surprise, considering I traded away Zubac to give up on those 2 stats.

Team's Win-Loss Stat on each Categories

FG%	FT%	3PTM	PTS	REB	AST	ST	BLK	TO
3-5-0	7-1-0	4-4-0	4-4-0	3-5-0	3-5-0	3-4-1	3-5-0	3-5-0

So, FT% is a clear strong point on my team, as intended.
But that is where the good news stops as I clearly see that my team is lacking in any clear advantages.
The intention is to make 3PTM & PTS a strong point as well and hopefully they trend in that direction.
Even still, it takes 5 stats to win and I am hoping I can bolster AST and ST to finalize the top 5 stat priorities.

Notable Players:
- Mike Conley: Great debut week from Conley. Superb AST numbers, exactly why I traded for him. Decent 3PTM to go along with a sprinkle of ST and REB. B+
- Damian Lillard: Nothing much to say but that he seems to be returning to his peak Portland form. Beautiful ouput from my 1st round pick. A+
- Devin Booker: The new PG of the Pheonix Suns racking up the AST, adding more value to his game and my fantasy team. A+

Underwhelming Players:
- Franz Wagner: Franz seems to be in a slump because I remember him killing it in the earlier part of the season. Perhaps he was overperforming back then but it seemed like a natural progression of his game to produce such numbers like the earlier weeks. I hope he gets back into his groove. C-
- Jalen Green: Nice AST but the PTS is not good enough and not a single ST? C'mon~ There has been a slight inclenation of trading Green but for what? what stats can I get at fair value for him? It would be best if he just ups his game. C-
- J. Suggs: He is in the team for defensive stats but produced 0 ST which is a no-no. Hopefully he is getting back to full fitness from the recent injury and justify his roster spot on the team. D-

Albas:
- Grayson Allen: I think I will make him a roster member at least until Beal is back and that is not for a while. As much of an asshole he is, he is a good player with 3PTM and decent shooting percentages in both FG% and FT%. B+
- Nick Richards: Also like Allen, Mark Williams is out for a while and Richards has taken the starting spot and is worth streaming until Williams is back fit. Even then, he was not too bad with consistent almost double-double numbers. B+
- C. LeVert: His average stats looked decent to be a waiver player, at least compared to my lower-end roster members. Maybe that just means my roster stinks. Anyways, producing stats all across the board is never bad and,,,,,, a little better then meh. C+
- M. Morris Sr.: Just a leftover player from last week and did not contribute much until released so. C-
- Alex Caruso: I thought he would be a good addition to the team with the 3PTM and more importantly, ST. But fitness seems to be alluding him and can't seem to get enough playing time to provide significant value. Maybe later down the line, I will consider Caruso again. D-
- Cam Reddish: Much like C. Wood a couple of weeks ago, garbage time might have helped him get some gametime and produce decent amount of stats for the team. Stats on every category so. B-

 

Final Thoughts:
- Tried a new format with this week's review and I think it looks pretty neat. I always wanted the score to be in the middle but for some reason, I was not able to put it in the middle. So, i just transposed it to be horizontal and Voila~! Nice to see the blog evolving as I get more reps into this endeavor.
- As precious as this week's win is, the victory was only achieved with such a score because the opponent had not been using the Albas and managing the team daily. Bittersweet with the victory because now I am pondering it this is the only way I can accumulate victories.
