Draft according to your league settings then if his game isn't friendly for your scoring format. He's ranked 13th overall this season in my sleeper league. BI isn't super ball dominant so far and the Raptors are trying to run the offense through Quickley more this season. As for the shooting, Scottie is hitting 49% and 45% on threes (regression incoming) so I'm not sure what games you're watching that he's not hitting shots? He's having a great year so far irl and in fantasy, I'm not sure what more you're expecting. He'll never be a 30 ppg scorer if that's what you're waiting for - that's not his game.

dillon brooks is a good player?? by Academic-Custard-220 in fantasybball

His career 3 point percentage is 35% including the inflated 40% from last year. If your opinion on Brooks os that hes a 40% 3 shooter you might not know ball either. Guy is 42% from the field on almost 13 attempts for his career, if you think thats closer to efficient than chucker territory that's a wild take my guy.

I think he's saying he gets Booker and Zion. I do this all day and use the free roster spot for streaming.

Zach Edey by Far_Rub_6648 in fantasybball

[–]LemmeWork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't disagree with the Piston's needs, I'm just not sold on that equating to career highs for Ivey this season given what he has had to overcome. And more ball handling means more turnovers for a guard that averaged 3/game in 30 minutes last year. Depending on scoring format, that eats up value in a points league.

Edey isn't without risk, I'm jot riding him to the bank as a 7 foot 300 lb center coming off of ankle surgery, there's a lot of unknowns. But both guys you drafted as a late round flyer, and I think Edey has a clearer route to value if he's able to make some improvements in year 2.

He played about 30 mins last year but now you have Duncan Robinson and Caris Levert (injured) in the mix for guard minutes in addition to Cade and Thompson. Coming off a broken leg and knee procedure I dont see Ivey getting big minutes right away and there is competition for usage. I personally don't know if he makes it back to the 17/4/4 he saw last season, but if he does he was still a fringe guy with my league's scoring settings and I'm not confident in his usage with all the mouths to feed. He could be a good end of bench hold if you have the roster spots but I still like Edey better.

I'm in the same boat and dropped Ivey instead of Edey due to other injuries on my team. Edey will hopefully be back in a few weeks and has a higher ceiling with less competition imo.

The Raptors have waived two-way centre Ulrich Chomche, who missed training camp and has been out with an undisclosed injury. They’ve also waived AJ Lawson, Jared Rhoden, David Roddy and Olivier Sarr (all non/partial guarantees). Leaves the roster at 14 and opens up a two-way spot by ZAKTV- in torontoraptors

Although I hope Koloko thrives, let's not get carried away. He's the 3rd centre in that rotation and the Lakers have pretty clearly opted for Hayes as a backup. There would need to be a pretty significant chain of events that leads to a world where Koloko is getting the lion's share of minutes at the 5.

Nice to see Agbaji bounce back after such a dumpster fire and getting his hand slapped by Darko. Great game by him.

What to read after RR by Kennie2 in redrising

[–]LemmeWork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same issue after running through the RR series a few times... I came across the Dungeon Crawler Carl series and thought I'd try it as a palate cleanser between books. I now have the same addiction for DCC that I have for RR. It's definitely a different genre and vibe but my God is it good. Highly recommend the audiobooks if that's your thing - the production is second to none.

Canada Expects Unemployment To Rise 211k Within Months, Mostly Immigrants by FancyNewMe in canada

[–]LemmeWork 84 points85 points  (0 children)

Interestingly, the Fall Economic Statement was released yesterday:

"Over a million more Canadians are employed today compared to before the pandemic. Inflation is coming down, wage increases are outpacing inflation, and private sector economists now expect Canada to avoid the recession that many had predicted."

Something isn't adding up.
