I’d definitely recommend texting them first asking if they’re open to trades, and then trying to do research on their team to find their weaknesses, and offer ways to help them (AKA finesse them in trades by getting a better player in 2 for 1 trades but have them believe you’re helping them)
Dan thank you so much for showcasing and advocating for trades that indicate respect for your fellow managers. I am so sick and tired of guys (yes, most of you are men) who get off on “fleecing” others or making fun of managers who don’t necessarily make the same decisions as those in the double-platinum-onyx leagues. And I know most of you aren’t like that and are respectful but there’s enough of you out there where it’s noticeable and, honestly, a detriment to the community. Ok rant over.
@@TheAlmightyChosenOne I asked the question incorrectly. What I should have said was: Historically speaking, who ranks higher each year in that 10cat format? Historically in 9cat Tobias finishes higher than Giddey, and this year they're currently kinda even. If you think Giddey will finish Top-40, then yes that would be a win. Otherwise...
Dan love your stuff #1 in my book. Currently in 1st in a 5 cat pts/reb/ast/stl/blk 12 team league with a weekly 42 game cap. I've been offered d.white & pj washington for my embiid/toby harris/benny simmons Very close to accepting the offer, am I making a mistake? Thx!
Honestly, it's not a bad return on Embiid, to get a guy rolling at a 2nd round clip. I'm okay with taking it if you want to just lock in a healthy solid dude
My league always veto's everything, I offered Gobert/Powell for Embiid after his first couple games. Trade was vetoed because it would make my team too good apparently. Currently the 5th seed.
My best trade was Klay Thompson for OG anonouby and Giddey for Desmond bane in my 12 Team 9 cat league. My worst trade which you did say was not good lol was josh hart and sexton for Nurkic and Bogdanovic ( ATL ) Nurkic has been super dissapointing so far
I just gor offered Kyrie and Derozan for Mobley and Dyson Daniels 10 man H2H category league, but our league only chose (guessed) 1 game out of the week
@@OldManSquad ok so I probably could have gotten more. I have Franz ln another team and really want to swap him for Scotty Barnes, a more complete 9cat top 40 guy. What do you think? If not Barnes who better could I get for Franz right now?
Traded My Jalen Green for Quickley I am top currently I have Curry Trae JJJ Pritchard Holiday B miller Vasell Mobley Dinwiddie Ivey John Collins I'm trying to go for late play good decision or bad?
I traded Sengun for Embiid last week (I am in 1st place in my league rn), hoping that in the fantasy playoffs he will be worth it. My team in general is so far ahead in skill than everyone else I thought the risk was worth it. Maybe it was bad for me but maybe it won't even matter
Not to be toxic but these types of trades would get you laughed out of the room in competitive leagues. These trades reek of public yahoo with someone who doesn’t know or doesn’t care hitting accept.
I lost in the playoffs last year to the Luka team that traded for Embiid mid-season! My team had just lost Giannis & had Bane & Markennen shutdown. 😭 KG was right, anytrade is possible......
My league hates trading 😭 sent out countless offers and not even counter offers back
Same here. Don’t understand the unwillingness to even engage
@@FrozenTundra-od9sokeep throwing them out there! Sweeten offers
Sorry man, that sucks. Need a new league!

Hahahaha, I love a good rant. Next time record it in video so I can play it in mid-show! (I'm not kidding)
@ careful what you wish for, just ask Kayla haha
Super fun segment
Thanks! Maybe I'll do it again!
I just got Giddey for Tobias straight up.. a ten team,10 cat, A/T ratio added league
@@TheAlmightyChosenOne how much higher rank is Giddey in that format!?
@jordanrush at the time he was ranked 58 and Tobias was 52.. he's ranked 54 after his recent triple double

one of the trades i did was buddy hield for sengun at the start of the season 😭
What kind of league was that jfc what a steal lmao
@@Wizkeh- idek half the people in the league knows ball proper and then the other half are more football fans.
Hahaha wow
Noice 🔥
Was just looking to make some moves in my league. Thanks Dan!
Hope you got some good ideas from the video!
this isa a great segment!
Thanks! Trying to figure out how to organize it but this was a good first pass I reckon
Dan, I dropped Bitadez/Mathurin and picked up Tobias Harris/Dangelo Russell. Right decision?
Yes
any idea what to do with jerami grant, anf.simons, and jaden ivey? as in what’s their worth rn and if you think i should hold or get rid of them asap?
I'd be trying to sell on their next big game. Grant is a shutdown risk, Simons is a 2-trick pony, and Ivey is a MESS on %s
would you trade pritchard for sarr 12T 9cat? punting assists and I like sarr but the fg is really concerning
Nah you can get more for PP
Would you trade potel for lauri? Both of their teams are at risk of shenanigans later on in the season. But lauri would give me a lift in scoring .
Only need to post once ;)
What do you think of Derrick White and KAT for wemby? I want wemby but don’t want to overpay just bc I’m a spurs fan
It’s a bit of an overpay, but if you want Wemby, that’s what it’s going to take
Crazy trades in non-money leagues shouldn't really be taken serious IMO
How do we know how much money is on these?
This was during the preseason, right after the KAT trade:
I got KAT for FVV
NICE
Dan love your stuff #1 in my book.
Currently in 1st in a 5 cat pts/reb/ast/stl/blk 12 team league with a weekly 42 game cap.
I've been offered d.white & pj washington for my embiid/toby harris/benny simmons
Very close to accepting the offer, am I making a mistake?
Thx!
Honestly, it's not a bad return on Embiid, to get a guy rolling at a 2nd round clip. I'm okay with taking it if you want to just lock in a healthy solid dude
who in their right mind would trade 2 guys that was gotten from the wire for Freddy?
It's wild man, but it happens all the time
I traded Keegan Murray for Brandon Miller 😅😁
Big win
Thoughts on this trade offer, Sengun/MPJ/Coby for my Giannis and Gordon.
I think I want the Giannis side since I assume you kinda built around him
sorry but also what about james harden, Anthony edwards, and norman powell for lebron, paul George, and lamello ball
Fair deal I reckon
My league always veto's everything, I offered Gobert/Powell for Embiid after his first couple games. Trade was vetoed because it would make my team too good apparently. Currently the 5th seed.
That’s not cool of them
Traded harden/Zubac for Giannis to start the season. Punting ft% and TO!
Oh yeah with that punt that fits
Malik monk for desmond bane? Still plausible?
Hell you might even be able to aim higher
@ what about Malik Monk and John Collins for Scottie Barnes?
@@poppahd Barnes side
@@OldManSquad Thank you! Hopefully not too much to ask for, will try with John Collins and Jordan Poole first hehe
feelings on lebron and keegan murray for scottie barnes?
I'd want Scottie I think... it's also a sell low on Bron right now
would you trade chet for embiid?
Yes. I don’t think Chet is coming back until march
Hi Dan, Christian Braun for Trey Murphy, who wins?
9cat
I'd want Trey
When should I trade Brandon miller
Probably now, haha. If you can get top-50 back I'd do it
My best trade was Klay Thompson for OG anonouby and Giddey for Desmond bane in my 12 Team 9 cat league. My worst trade which you did say was not good lol was josh hart and sexton for Nurkic and Bogdanovic ( ATL ) Nurkic has been super dissapointing so far
Great trades on those first two, but yeah can't be giving up Hart for that poo
I just gor offered Kyrie and Derozan for Mobley and Dyson Daniels 10 man H2H category league, but our league only chose (guessed) 1 game out of the week
Pretty fair deal I think. I'd lean to the Kyrie side
I traded vooch and braun for reaves and anunoby, i don't have full confidence with the trade
Yeah I think you could have aimed way higher
Traded RJ and Beasley for Butler 12t 9c h2h
9-cat I'm into it!
Ok, sent Wagner and Sharpe for FVV and Bub, rate this trade… thanks again Dan!
Haha, I think you could get more for Franz right now
@@OldManSquad ok so I probably could have gotten more. I have Franz ln another team and really want to swap him for Scotty Barnes, a more complete 9cat top 40 guy. What do you think? If not Barnes who better could I get for Franz right now?
@@deanchambers4483 That's a good target to try for... if they say no, try adding something smaller into it
@@OldManSquad like a Simmons or Duren? Both disappointing so far
@@deanchambers4483 Duren probably moves the needle more. Not sure anyone even wants Simmons
RJ Barrett for Bane?
Yes sir in 9-cat for sure
I was offered Suggs for my knecht in a 10 man cat league, do I take it
YES
Dan, I want off of Tyrese Maxey. What do I do?
Really? He's pretty solid. Try to just make a fair trade for someone else in the 30 range
Taco league - on the chet + jb for wemby trade.
Not every league is a taco league because a trade happened you don’t like
Someone offered me Beal and Jerami Grant for Lavine . Should I accept ? 12T espn points
Those are 2 headaches but the value is good. I could go either way
Traded My Jalen Green for Quickley
I am top currently
I have
Curry
Trae
JJJ
Pritchard
Holiday
B miller
Vasell
Mobley
Dinwiddie
Ivey
John Collins
I'm trying to go for late play good decision or bad?
planning to trade curry for towns as well
Just post once haha
@@OldManSquad sorry for duplicates I was posting it with weak internet got spammed will delete haha
(almost) Last place guy in my 12t 9c h2h league (auto?) drafted Embiid, PG13, Kawhi & Porziņģis 🤯
Community, who do y'all think I should target?
League has 3 IR/IR+ slots, but starting the season with 4 IR players is mad... mad genius maybe? 😂
He’s most likely willing to part with Joel or kawhi since they’re still out. Offer something super cheap to begin with
I can start with C. Sexton and see where it goes...
In my league porzingus an Coby white for KAT some bs
Yeah KAT side wins there but it's not a veto. Each side gave up stuff of value
I traded Sengun for Embiid last week (I am in 1st place in my league rn), hoping that in the fantasy playoffs he will be worth it. My team in general is so far ahead in skill than everyone else I thought the risk was worth it. Maybe it was bad for me but maybe it won't even matter
Horrible trade embid is only probably playing 30 to 40 games this year if that and Sengun will out produce him big time
@DA-gw1ft thanks bro
Yeah probably a bit of an overpay since I think you can get Embiid for a 50-range guy now
Not to be toxic but these types of trades would get you laughed out of the room in competitive leagues. These trades reek of public yahoo with someone who doesn’t know or doesn’t care hitting accept.
The point is that they happen regularly and all submitted by loyal followers. Not every league is the same
Ending up with top two guys is pretty insane. Opposition not paying attention. Wemby Joker team is just dumb 🤌🍺
Hell of a move but it made total sense after the first week!
I lost in the playoffs last year to the Luka team that traded for Embiid mid-season! My team had just lost Giannis & had Bane & Markennen shutdown. 😭
KG was right, anytrade is possible......
trying to trade siakam + ivey for LBJ with veto hope it goes thru 🥲
GL
Go for it!
@@OldManSquad got him!
