I barely lost to House of Payne in 3 categories I may get when I get a full roster playing. Even my usual studs have been flops this year. Whiteside is a perfect example: barely getting any blocks, but doing lots of DNPs.

Plus there is jack on the wire this season. Not sure why it was better prior years...............

The waiver wire has sucked this season. I have made a ton of moves but maybe only half of them have paid off. Kenny just beat me 6-4. I have no consistent lineups this season, last season I was averaging 2 or 3 moves a week and would just set my lineup. It would be 2 or 3 key moves right at midnight but I didn't make a ton like I am now. My lineup is a mess compared to last season. I have Curry, Butler, and Melo - everyone else is expendable. Right now Butler is playing like he has his head up his ass and Curry did a DNP on me Sunday vs Kenny.

This has been 1 frustrating season for me as I just cant seem to get on a roll no matter how many moves I make. I might not even make the Playoffs as 3-6 is so wide open. The Fantasy Gods aren't with me this season, that and the waiver wire has really sucked all season.

Yeah this isn't my year, if I don't win it all I hope one of you guys do that Post in here. You and I have a Championship so if Kenny or Rev won this I would be happy. I would hate to see House of Payne just come in and win in year 1. Craig is too far out of it to qualify for the Playoffs. I cant get into any kind of groove, I was feeling it last season and made the perfect moves.

I was on a roll for a few weeks, but IDK my lineup keeps underperforming and sporadic injuries have kept my stats in the doghouse. Having KD is great as my #1 pick but since he joined the Dubs he isn't the "star" performer on his team anymore. if I can't climb back out of 7th place then at least Miles can go for the Gold! Youth uprising!

I give Miles a solid chance of winning this. I had no answer for his lineup this past week.

Yeah this is just not my year. I was up 6-4 on DNP going into last night and lost 2-8. I have no idea how that happened. I had 9 players playing last night. Rev and I both are basically tied for that final Playoff spot, the league has Rev in 6th though. To be honest I will be glad when this ends, we only have 2 more weeks then the Playoffs start. If I don't get in and Rev does, no bigge as I am kind of burned out playing in this. I will still set my lineup everyday and try but if I lose I lose.

Yeah I knew it was going to be close . . I figure I beat Kenny this week and solidify that 6th spot, but we have a couple weeks left, right?

Yeah 2 weeks left. You and I play in the last week, how fitting. I usually talk trash but I wouldn't doubt if you beat me, I havent had no consistency at all lately.

Just lost my #1. Should be interesting!!! But yeah, for whatever reason, Miles has been really consistent and he's basically the only viable chance to take down Payne. Wouldn't it be funny if he won it all??

I would love it!

You have Durant don't you? I forgot about that but I still think you can beat me. I just haven't had it this season. After playing perfectly last season I thought I would waltz into a Repeat and really only Nuggs scared me. I was mistaken. The waiver has been dog poop all season and Curry isn't having near the same impact he had last season for me. My Guard play was unmatched last season with Curry and Thomas, I don't have that this season.

I just went back and looked at our history. I was 110-76-4 last season (#2 Seed = Bye week) and had I not lost Marc Gasol and Eric Bledsoe it probably would've much been better. My final roster consisted of - when I beat Nuggs was:
Curry
Thomas
Irving
Crawford
Greak Freak
Myles Turner
Aldridge
-look at my Guards/playmakers/Bigs, those 7 players were all kicking ass during my Playoff run. I had Gasol and Bledsoe on that Roster but they got injured early in the season. When I had Gasol and Bledsoe I was 33-17 and had the best record in the league through Week 5. This season I am 76-90-4, I wont even win 90 games the way it's going.

*Side note, neither Miles or DNP will win 110 games, both are tied for 2nd with 92 wins as of now. I would love to pass the torch to Miles. Nuggs won in 2015 and passed it to me in 2016, so I am on the Miles bandwagon (unless I play him of course

This is it folks, it boils down to the last week between Rev and I on who gets the final Playoff spot. Whoever finishes 7th is toast. I am shooting for the moon with one last hurrah! I need a 5-5 tie to get in, if he beats me 6-4 he gets in. Rev has the overall tie breaker over me but I am 1 game ahead as of now. It's been a fun 3 seasons, so far I have compiled a record of 292-278-10Ties = a 51.2 winning% and I have a Championship in my 3 years of doing this. The Lakers need me Good luck Brethren Rev.
