Hi there! =)
Could you help me by defining the terms "buying low" and "selling high" for a first time fantasy player as myself? What qualifies a player to be in either category? Could you also offer some examples of each please?

Clint said...

Should I Try and Trade Gallanari or Frye For Okafur or jus wait for beindrins to get healthy and pick him up off waivers and use Gallanari in a 2 for 1 situation if possible???

My Team.
PG - DWill, Lou Will, Westbrook
SG - Dwade, Ben Gordon, Iverson
SF - SJacks, Gallanari
PF - Boozer, Love
C - Lopez, Al Jeff, Frye

Thief said...

Decree, a buy low is trading for a top player that is slumping. Earlier examples were Caron butler and a current example is David west. Sell high is trading a player when he's producing at a rate above normal, like Carmelo Anthony or Paul pierce. We try to buy low with our poor players and sell high to get top tier players (like dealing pierce for Amare).

Clint, try dealing Gallinari n Biedrins for okafor n a stud. Good luck!

ok so i am in a roto league and i am in first place by 2 points but i only have a 7out of 12 in 3s,assists and steals so even through my sauce is decent i would like to improve do u think i could swing a CP3 trade dirk and who would get him? or do u have a better idea

Erwin said...

Trade Help:

I will receive(12 place out of 16):
John Salmons
Jose Calderon
Kevin Durant

Team B (who is in first place):
Steve Nash
Amar'e Stoudamire

Should I accept or not I'm also currently in need of good rebounders/blockers

Thief said...

Jj, lol, not gonna happen bro. But why not try Parker n gay in a 2-1 for say arenas? That's a good deal. Or just wait til jameer comes back n heats up, then sell him high.

WB, that's EXACTLY what u gotta do. Try Dirk n zach Randolph for CP3 and a big man from him. Love that deal for you. Also if it doesn't work, send Randolph for jameer alone, that'd b good too

Thief said...

Erwin, it's OK. Try countering without losing salmons though. Keep him, send the rest. INK IT BRO!

wbody1997gt said...

the guy that has CP3 here are his big men
PF Al Harrington (NY - PF,C)
C Andray Blatche (Was - PF,C)
C Brook Lopez (NJ - PF,C)
BN Jermaine O'Neal (Mia - C)
should i try for jeromy o neil and CP3 for dirk and randolph?

Thief said...

WB, perfect BUT, start by askin for lopez, then al, then jerm. Might be able to thieve a lil more outta him!

Dipset said...

Thief said...

LA, sorry i missed ya there. DEFINITELY, love that deal. Selling Ariza high is nice too. INK IT

Mike said...

Hey Thief....I just took over a dead team in a 12 team h2h cats league in year 2, we keep 3 per year. The last owner was a genious and managed to get LBJ, CP3, Granger, Arenas. I have no depth at all and am about to go to 0-8. So I've decided to try to upgrade granger to Wade and set myself up even better for next year. The owner just happens to love Wade and the only way I get Wade is with Granger and Arenas. I'm thinking yes since only 4 teams make the playoffs and the 4th place team is about to go to 6-2. Good deal for my keeper situation?

Stodds said...

I think you missed me up there with LA lol

Shorts said...

I just got offer Dirk and J Johnson for CP3, should I accept? I feel like I should only trade him for LBJ. Thinking I need to keep my tier 1 guy. Please tell me if I am wrong.

Thief said...

Mike, if you're set up to punt the season, then ABSOLUTELY!

Michael said...

Thief,

Is Biedrins worth picking up and taking the hit of having one less player for a couple weeks until he is healthy?

Do you think he is going to play well and about 30 minutes a game?

Thanks for the insight.

Thief said...

Stodds, sorry brosam. I like those deals, but def the LBJ deal the best. Hit me up when u ink one, we gotta get u some treys!

Drew, dead on right bro. CP3 dominates Dirk, end of story.

yizzle24 said...

hey its your boy. I need help because I'm just in a jam with my team. Its a 14 Team H2H all cats

Luke Ridnour
Dwayne Wade
Ersan Ilyasova
David West
David Lee
Ray Allen
Chris Duhon
Mike Bibby
OJ Mayo
Wilson Chandler
BENCH: Hill, Shaq, Taj Gibson

I know I really need a big man, but I would also like to sure up assits(since they are rare), steals, and threes. Also, since most big man suck at FG, i don't start them since my players shoot high % but no attempts, so one miss kills me. Who should i target. Any good 2-1 I can do. Thanks man, I can always count on your advice.

Sauce:
PTS: 15.02
3s: 1.06
REB: 4.98
AST: 3.47
STL: .98
BLK: .5

Thief said...

Mike, so far so good is what I hear about Biedrins. In which case, yeah I'd do it. You're talking about MAYBE losing a week or two, in exchange for a bona fide starter for the rest of the season. Take a gamble and we'll both keep a lose eye on his heath.

Yizzie! What's up playa playa. Look bro, YOU NEED A BIG MAN, can't say more than that! Tell ya what tho, let's try to get Jameer on your squad too. He'll offer some good treys an dimes to help out. I'd like to see you work Ray Allen and Luke Ridnour for Jameer and a cheap (okafor level) big man. That'd be perfect. If he doesn't want ole ray ray, we can try to work D West too. Good luck!

yizzle24 said...

aight, heres the offer
GIVE:
Hill, shaq, ridnour

GET:
nelson, perkins

lets see how it goes

lohome93 said...

hey thief..i think u missed me up there too

Thief said...

Loho! So sorry! Treys n blocks is all u need. Try to hook up Bargnani for that. Maybe move Biedrins with Morrow or Dunleavy. Prolly Dunleavy should do it. Let me know how that works.

lohome93 said...

the guy who has bargnani also has

calderon
roy
bibby
salmons
scola
thad young
david lee
jason thompson
okur
peja
beasly
and lou williams

so he is reluctant to trade bargnani cause he doesnt have many blocks...any other players i should go for...or should i just push hard for bargnani?

Thief said...

Don't give up hope, but if he's not down, go after Okur next. Same deal, big man who drops treys.

lohome93 said...

k im thinking of offering dunleavy and morrow for bargnani and peja or for bargnani and salmons...which is better?

Thief said...

Dood be real. Biedrins must be in any offer for bargs. End of story. You MIGHT get Okur for morrow n dunleavy....maybe

nasty_nate said...

Hey man, I needed a little help with a trade I was offered. It might be vetoed but in case it doesn't I wanted your feedback

I give: LaMarcus Aldridge and Okafor
I get: TJ Ford and Boozer

my team is joe johnson, bosh, nash, dunleavy, redd, nene, roy, mo williams, okafor, aldridge, jeff green, scola, aaron brooks, brook lopez, and anthony morrow

What do you think?

Thief said...

Nate, I'm not too high on TJ Ford, but no matter, this is a classic 2-1 Aldy n Okafor for Boozer. I do like boozer but can you get by losing all those blocks? I'd say check your sauce numbers n make sure. That's quite a hit to take!

Max said...

hey heres my team im probably top 50 in yahoo but what can i do to trade? Thank You for any help!

SG Kevin Durant
G Jason Kidd
SF Carmelo Anthony

Max, good stuff, welcome to the site. First things first, we need to figure out where your teams strengths and weakness are. Please read the post Secret Sauce, in it I describe exactly how to get your Sauce numbers that tell us what we need. Then report back!

i think you are right that i should not love my players so i am planning to get howard and caron for lee and smith.. should i do it?

thanks!!! ^^

Thief said...

Noooooooo, try lee and frye.

jb rdl said...

okay ,but right now, i just wanna have an extra sg and center. i know peja is great but i want iverson because i have learned from you that injured players are easy to get and i know that he can still drop many 20 point games.. i also know that jermaine is great but his prone on injuries right now and i want players like sammy d or b wallace who can steal,reb and block.. who do you think should i trade in my roster for iverson and sammy d or b wallace? thanks.. ^^

jb rdl said...

hello thief, i have some problems in my bench players especially the pg and sg spot.. can i please know who should i ship on my players because i see myself in a real trouble when my starters have a 1-game week? thanks!
