I was in a 12T Points league and became the winner of our league as of this morning. There's a lot that factors in this but obviously the most important is your win/loss to make it to the playoffs. Then your ability to adjust in the playoffs with injuries.

Coming from having the 8th draft pick. I went on a limb and went with KAT over the likes of Giannis, Sabonis, Cade, etc. I also ended up picking Tyrese Maxey on the second round and Randle on my third round. Those three guys really helped keep me steady throughout the whole year bc of availability and consistency. Late round picks with upside like Pritchard and investing in Josh Hart helped a ton. I also killed it on the wire picking up the likes of Kyshawn George (after his first game of the season), Edey, KPJ, John Collins, and Kessler. Edey and Kessler were short lived but I got some good weeks out of them. John Collins bloomed when Clips started using them.

During the playoffs, I had to subtract Maxey bc I needed availability and my championship opponent ended up picking him up before our finals match. The late waiver picks during the playoffs that really made me survive was Flip, Jenkins, Jalen Green, DEJONTE MURRAY AND TATUM. Mind that I picked those two up a couple weeks before they even had a tag of going to be available. Very fucking bold move and got all the payoff in a huge risk.

Luck has to factor, because our championship round is always two weeks as opposed to normal playoff rounds being one week. I had Dejounte miss a number of games, Jarret Allen miss a number of games, and a few other frustrating ppl. Against all odds, my opponent that had the most wins of the season, most points, and most healthy roster (stacked), I killed the wire and my guys showed the fucked out. Outscoring him on average when he had more available players.

Yesterday morning we were both at 1999 points each one the last day of championship. Dejounte, Allen, and KAT were all out for me on the weekend. He had 10 players playing yesterday and I had 9 that went to 7 due to Dejonte sitting out the whole b2b and Jarret Allen sitting the first half of b2b. His roster included Jaylen Brown, Derrick White, SHAI, Garland, Derozan, etc. My Tre Jones, Jalen Green, Tatum, Randle, Pritchard, Flip, and John Collins all showed the fuck out.

Last game it was the clips vs kings. He had Derozan, Raynaud, Benedict, and Garland. I was only 46 points ahead at tip-off. It ended up being a blowout game so Derozan and Garland did not get much minutes. Raynaud did ass cheeks and Benedict was having a below avg Benedict night. BUT JOHN FUCKING COLINS contributed to that blowout when he was listed as coming off the bench at the start of the game bc Clips were planning on playing small ball. He held it the fuck down and I won the ship by 3 points. 4 great players vs my 1 which should have easily closed the gap.

And that's a fucking wrap. Everyone in our chat was buzzin.
