    So I have Nerlens Noel on my Fantasy team and he hasn’t been performing like I want him to. Should I drop him right now or wait to see if he gets out of this slump

     You should drop him, says whoever has waiver priority in your league. I would give you kobe straight up for him.

     If you drop him, I will get him immediately. People in your fantasy would be wild dogs in trying to get him. Yes, he has underperformed but I don’t see him struggling that long especially if he’s playing on the Sixers.

     I owuld say it matters how many teams you have; in a league of 8 or more players i would keep him. I agree, being on the sixers he should improve. I was trying to trade for him at the start of the year, but I am in a 6th team league, and Wade is actually the best player in FA, lol…

     I’m looking to pick up Kyrie in the next week or so, deciding who to drop: Rubio or E Gordon, i need scoring and 3s about as equally as I need the assists…. (scoring a but more). I know who the better fantasy player is, But it is about about what i need more, been in second all year to team S. Curry…. thoughts?

       That’s a tough one but I think you should replace Gordon for Kyrie if that’s the case. He scores more and he makes around the same amount of threes as Gordon and he gives you more on assist as well. The turnovers may pile up but you should do fine. That’s my opinion though.

     any plays for him & their two starting guards – Marshal & Wroten – have not played yet….. & the Guards they have – McConnell, Pressy & Canaan are just not NBA caliber starting guards…. 

    I wouldn’t start Noel – but I wouldn’t release him either…. put him on the bench until Marshal returns & see if Phila is able to get him into the flow of the offense….

    I def am holding out hope that he finds more of a spot on this team. I have watched him play this year with Oakafor vs. last year. I can tell he looks uncomfortable playing with him. He seems lost out there. It might be that he is more of a down low guy protecting the rim and getting the dunks.

     with an injury….. I know he missed two games about 3 weeks ago….. And that’s about the time his stats dipped…. The first 7 or 8 games of the year he & Okafor looked good together….. & Noel’s stats were similar to last season & his PPG had actually increased from last year…….

     He was averaging about 14 & 10 w/ his usual 2 blocks, 2 steals & 2 assists….. but since the Orlando game……. Where he was thrown out b/c of a retaliation for a cheap shot from Jayson Williams……. He just hasn’t been right…….. Supposedly he’s having trouble w/ his wrists…… & that would definitely explain the dip in points & rebounds…..
