NBA Fantasy

SH Week 1~8 Recap (44W 28L, 2nd in League)

Ranked 1st three weeks ago but could not get a big win since then
I will share how my choices has derived such a result

It turns out that my draft choice wasn't too bad
To mention,
1. Early picks are generating good numbers without much injuries
Shai has been ranked Fantasy season rank 1 for quite a while
Franz Wagner once was ranked Fantasy season rank 2 before the current injury
Brandon Miller, MPJ and Herro are doing good
Randle wasn't too bad 
2. One big trade has gone pretty well
Bam, who also has generated good REB and defensive stats, are traded away for Tyus Jones and Mikal Bridges
After watching live Heat games, I witness his basketball skills have not that improved since few years back 
With 3pt and PTS as my team's strength, I wanted to empower it in a way that I can always take 3pt and PTS for granted
3. FA pick-ups were good 
Mc Cain and Castle, two rookie player picks were good 
Especially Mc Cain provided the team with incredible numbers (which remined me of Jeremy Lin at NYK) while Maxey was out with injuries

First three or four weeks, I stayed inactive at picking up FAs
Wanted to give some time for my draft hypothesis to work
Scoot Henderson and Clarkson did not prove their fantasy value during that period so I replaced them with constantly changing FAs

After mentioned period, many injuries of major players were published 
So I get to find the answer for 'Who's gonna replace those who injured'
Mc Cain after Maxey was successful, Mo Wagner and Isaac after Franz Wagner was not successful
It is hard to foresee who's gonna perfectly take the star player's vacancy
Mc Cain is a rookie
Mo Wagner and Isaac are not-bad players
The predictability on replacing player, I think, very much depends on the player himself (Not much of coaching strategies or nature of opponents' offence and defence)

Now, my team became undefeatable in 3PT and PTS not
Slightly above average in REB and AST
League bottom in TO
The rest are not showing any observable patterns to analyse

From a macro perspective,
Shaky 7-2 score is prefered in the first half of the season and
Solid 5-4 score is needed in the second half
Fantasy seaon consists of a bit more than 20 weeks
From an all star break or few weeks from now,
Analysis of my team and solidate one or two stats (other than current 3PT and PTS) will be my next move
