All system's going clear lifting. What's going on YouTube? We're back on the
0:38
Mayo Media Network. My debut on this channel right here, filling in for
0:43
a guy toe tagging Tambo. He's got other stuff going on today. Tag
0:47
team me and little Raw Rumble Action here coming on Friday night, SmackDown whatever
0:52
you want to call it, Little WWE Action Tag Team. I got my
0:55
guy Hamdwich with me. How much? How we doing, Man, Happy
0:58
Friday? Good to have you here. Got a nice little eight game slate
1:00
on tap tonight in the NBA streets here? What a game last night?
1:06
Hou that Thursday night football game Vegas breaking records out there? I mean,
1:10
Aidan O'Connell looked like freaking Tom Brady, Prime, Prime Tom Brady out there
1:14
last night. What's your thoughts on that? What's your thoughts on this NBA
1:17
game? Man, Happy Friday? I mean, you just knew at halftime
1:19
that the that there was no way that this Chargers coach was gonna make it
1:25
to the next game. And lo and behold, they fired him at lunchtime
1:26
today. That team quit last night. It was embarrassing, bad look for
1:30
the Chargers. Uh yeah, and those Raiders hadn't scored a point in what
1:34
three weeks or whatever, nineteen drives and all of a sudden they do that.
1:38
But this is an NBA show, so we got eight games to talk
1:40
about. Should be should be a good slate to talk about. You know,
1:42
we got Joel and beat up top, but he's you know, sixteen
1:45
point favorites, so shouldn't be a good game. But we're gonna dive right
1:48
into it. Appreciate you filling in for Toe Tag and Tambo. I know

2:30
what Hamwich. Let's jump right in. We got a doozy here. The
2:35
first game that we're going to talk about here is a big one, a
2:38
wop in. Two fifty nine is the total. I mean, man,
2:42
these totals have been absolutely ridiculous this year. And Indy Washington here, we
2:46
know the drill with Washington. Washington plays zero defense. Here, You've got
2:51
Tyrese Haliburton at eleven three here in a matchup where Washington plays absolutely zero defense.
2:58
Obviously, hal Burton's let die on so to speak to what he was
3:00
doing earlier the last three games hasn't surpassed fifty draft Kings points, right,
3:07
he's up to eleven three. He got odd obviously, the other studs on
3:09
the slate, Joe on Beid's on the slate. We'll talk about him later
3:14
in a great matchup against Detroit. But two fifty nine total here, Indy
3:17
eight point favorites in this one where you're going, man, obviously a pace
3:23
up spot for both of these teams should be should be a lot of fireworks
3:25
in this one. The kick us off, Yeah, this should be a
3:28
good one, and I'm gonna start at the top. I mean, phenomenal
3:31
player Tyree Saliburton should have a great, great game tonight playing this so Washington
3:38
team that is one of the worst, if not the worst team in the
3:40
league defensively, on top of the fact that they can't goard point guards eleven
3:44
three. It's a big boyd price tag for Tyree's but in the game that
3:46
has a total almost hovering around two sixty with his assist upside, obviously we
3:52
know he can score the basketball. I think Tyrese Aliburton out eleven three is
3:55
a great play. Really like Tyres Saliburton tonight. That would be my favorite
4:00
pacer. And then I think, I think you can play some of these,
4:03
uh these Washington guys as well. My favorite Washington guy, especially Jordan
4:09
Poole, should sit. Jordan pool is listed as questionable. So if Jordan
4:13
Poole sits, I like Denny and I can't say his last name whatever.
4:16
Denny's last name is a divja. You could probably pronounce it better than that
4:20
needs. But Denny's my favorite guy of pool sits, don't mind him.
4:25
And then I like, I like Miles Turner. Miles Turner at the center
4:28
position, which is a loaded is a loaded position tonight, right with Joel
4:31
playing as well, So Miles Turner at seven and five against this uh,
4:35
this Washington team that cannot defend the rim either or they can't defend anybody but
4:41
can't defend the rim, can't defend point guards. We know the Pacers like
4:44
to push the pace, we know their number one in transition offense. So
4:47
give me these Pacers tonight, and then I don't mind a couple of these
4:50
Washington guys coming back. Yeah. No, I love this game Tyres Haliburton
4:56
and love the spot for him. I think you could see a sixty five
5:00
seventy piece here out of Haliburton in this game environment. Right, people want
5:02
to say blow it concerns all that I don't account for that. In NBA,
5:08
obviously, we've seen this multiple times, right, decent spread, nine
5:11
point spread, whatever, We've seen double digit spreads play close and the other
5:15
team's actually coming leading the game and starts blowing them out. We saw that
5:18
earlier this year. Right, We were on the show talking about that and
5:21
came back on the next show and much we talked about at that. Hey,
5:25
the script flip there, so not really concerned about that, and if
5:28
the game does blow it, it's definitely likely on the back of Haliburton.
5:30
Really like Halburton, really like Miles Turner. Those two is a package deal
5:33
there. Obviously, Miles Turner benefits from Halburton. I mean, he's a
5:39
true point guard right dishing the dish in the rock. I watched this kid
5:42
in high school a lot. Obviously, he grew up here thirty minutes south
5:46
of me. Our high school played against this kid as I was growing up.
5:48
I wasn't a basketball player, but this guy was dunking as a freshman
5:53
out here on varsity. So cool to see him. Obviously love him here.
5:57
I'm seeing pretty low ownership on him as well. Miles Turner has a
6:00
really good matchup as well alongside of Halibert, and so, like I said,
6:03
I like those two guys. One lower owned piece from the Pacers side
6:08
in this game, kind of in that mid tier range is Benny mathurin here.
6:11
I want to bring him up pretty GPP Boom or bus type player here,
6:16
but you did just see him pop off in a good match up against
6:18
Detroit two nights ago, where he played thirty seven minutes posted fifty five DraftKings
6:23
points, he gets another another nut match up here. You can play him
6:27
at shooting or yeah, shooting guard or small forward six k flat for him.
6:32
You could see him pop off here in a big way. So I
6:34
don't hate that as a as a GPP on own play there, just due
6:39
to a matchup standpoint. And then on the Washington side, obviously, if
6:43
Jordan Pool misses, that's a lot of usage right to go to other guys
6:46
in this game. I mean he commands about a twenty four percent usage rate
6:50
on the season there, so guys like Denny Avijia, Tyas Jones would get
6:55
poop get boost there. Kola Balle might get a little boost as well.
7:00
He's been playing decent, but man, he's up to fifty four hundred,
7:04
so I don't love that. He's basically been been sitting kind of at his
7:09
at his I mean he's showing like a thirty point ceiling thirty three point ceiling
7:14
over like the last two weeks, So not a ton of interest there.
7:17
I think my favorite Washington piece here is actually Daniel Gafford, which a little
7:23
scary to say, but it is actually a pretty good match up here.
7:26
Fifty six hundred, you could see a little a little back and forth in
7:30
this one. Any any additional takes on this game, obviously it's a it's
7:33
a huge game to kick us off biggest total. It's up to two sixty
7:38
and a half now the total is actually so total over to sixty man,
7:42
Any any additional remarks here. If Jordan Poole does miss, I haven't checked.
7:46
He is still questionable. I do see that. I haven't looked at
7:48
shoot around. But any additional takes before we jump, Yeah, I mean
7:53
I think you're gonna have to have some pieces tonight. I mean, we
7:55
just don't see. I don't know, maybe we've never seen it, you
7:58
know, a total of six, you know, someone in the chest.
8:01
And about Buddy Healed, Yeah, I think I think any of these pacers
8:05
really are employee Healed. I have some interest in I have some interest in
8:09
Neie Smith coming off the bench, Miles Turner, gaffer as you alluded to
8:13
Bruce Brown even, I think you're just gonna have to find the right pieces.
8:16
But we're gonna see a lot of points. We're gonna see a lot
8:18
of fantasy points in this game. And the hope is, you know,
8:22
it's a call it a one forty to you know, one thirty two type
8:28
of game, right, I mean that will get us over the total and
8:31
keep us within the spread. So I think you're gonna have to have a
8:33
lot of pieces tonight. We're gonna have some value as we get into the
8:37
Celtics rotation. So I think, uh, we're gonna have all those pieces
8:41
to play. But I think you're gonna have to have I'm gonna say three,
8:45
naides. I think three pieces in this game would be my guest on
8:48
the winner. Possibly four. I don't know if you differ than that,
8:50
but I think at least three. Yeah, Obviously it's a great game here,
8:54
and I don't think blow it's too much of a concern. I really
8:56
like, Like I said, I really like Daniel Gafford. I really like
9:00
Mathurin as kind of my sleeper because you can play him at the small forward
9:03
position six K, So I really like him. And then Haliburton's one of
9:07
my favorite studs in the whole slate. I'm seeing sell five percent ownership on
9:09
Tyrese Haliburton here, who I think could go for seventy in this matchup right,
9:13
I mean we've seen him go nuke to slate before right, just last
9:18
week a couple of ten days, fifteen days ago or so, right,
9:20
he went off for seventy three, and I'm way tougher matchup against Miami here,
9:24
so his assistants should be there. I really like this game. Miles
9:28
Turner's fine. I like Gafford a lot though on the Washington side, and
9:33
then obviously Kyle Kuzma. Kyle Kuzma's got a great matchup here as well.
9:37
Gafford and Kuzma actually have the two best matchups for this Washington squad. So
9:41
if you want to do a little little mini game, stack here, hamid
9:43
much to kick off the game, right, little Halliburton throwing a Buddy Heel
9:46
or a Mathurin even a Nie Smith off the bench there, run it back
9:50
with Gafford and Kuzma, and just hope this game plays at the total or
9:56
plays over right. So obviously a great game to kick us off. We
9:58
spent a lot of time on it. I do want to bring up one
10:01
piece from an ownership standpoint. Gallinari four K I think is a fine value
10:07
play here. I don't love it a ton, but I am seeing decent
10:11
ownership on him, So I did want to bring up Gallo. Do you
10:13
have any final takes on Gallo at four klay, I think he's getting ownership
10:18
due to the total and his price. Obviously he can play him at the
10:20
power forward position and he takes on Gallinar here. Yeah, no Gallinari for
10:26
me. I mean, obviously we need to see what's gonna happen with Jordan
10:30
Poole. But I kind of want Jordan Pool to six. I have tons
10:33
of interest in Denny if he does, and some of those other pieces that,
10:37
like you said, their usage would go up. But yeah, no
10:39
Gallinari for me. I think I can find some other value that's going to
10:43
play more minutes than him. No excellent breakdown. All right, let's jump
10:48
into the next game here, New Orleans Pelicans Charlotte Hornets. In terms of
10:52
a total in this one, obviously New Orleans seven point favorites here in this
10:58
one, two thirty two is the total. A little bit of a piace
11:01
up spot here for the Pelicans here in this one, Nick Richards obviously is
11:07
talking play here still with the getting the all the center minutes due to the
11:11
injury. There you got Terry Rozier, Miles Bridges, a couple guys getting
11:16
ownership. Brandon Miller's getting getting a decent amount of ownership twenty plus projected ownership
11:22
right now at six k flat. He's kind of been sitting around five x's
11:26
salary at six k, kind of in the upper twenty twenties and and low
11:31
thirties in terms of fantasy points over like last week or so. Touch on
11:33
him as a chalk piece and then guys like Gordon Hayward, brandon Ingram where
11:39
you go in this one. Obviously still pretty pretty good total in this one
11:43
as well. Yeah, no, this should be a good game. And
11:45
Zion was at the shooting around this morning. Mark c that you has a
11:48
question about Zion, Yeah, he was at the morning shooting around. So
11:52
if he plays, I think I think, you know, I'll have a
11:54
little bit of interest in him. Some of my favorite pieces in this game
12:00
would be Scary Terry Terry Rosier eighty seven hundred. I think he's very fine
12:05
play at the point guard and shooting guard position. Then Joe val Jonas Valentiunas
12:09
seventy one hundred at the center position thirty three minutes, forty forty seven DraftKings
12:13
points his last time out. They just obliterated that Washington team. Similar to
12:20
Washington, the the Hornets have a tough time guarding the Bigs as well with
12:24
the rent protection. So give me some Joe val you know, getting those
12:28
rebounds, getting those easy putbacks and what what the whatnot? So give me
12:31
Roseier, give me valentiunas I mean brandon Ingram. I think what he have
12:35
like forty real life points the other night and in uh in just over thirty
12:41
minutes. I think he's a fine play this. This could be a sneaky
12:45
game as well, Naids. And in terms of up and down pace,
12:48
I mean Charlotte defensively not very good. Uh So I think this could this
12:54
could be up in pace. And then Herb Jones, you know, he's
12:58
popping over here and the stuff that I look at over ship in nation,
13:01
he's looking very well for us. He did not play a lot of minutes
13:03
last game. A lot of those got lost to Trey Murphy. But I'm
13:07
okay with going back to Herb tonight, fifty seven hundred shooting guard and small
13:13
forward eligibility. I don't mind this game at all. But and I just
13:16
alluded to the folks that I'll have the most interest in. Yeah, No,
13:20
I'm definitely with you. Brandon Ingram does get a really good match up
13:22
here. Brandon Miller does have a plus matchup as well. That's kind of
13:26
why you're seeing the ownership as well. He is six k two right,
13:31
You saved twenty seven hundred dollars off of Rogier with another ballhander there in Brandon
13:35
Miller. PJ. Washington is questionable obviously. If he does miss, that
13:39
gives boost to guys like Gordon Hayward, Brandon Miller, little boost to Miles
13:43
Bridges as well. So I do have some interest in Miller. Brandon Ingram.
13:48
I really like here. He's got a great matchup and like you said,
13:50
right, he's coming off of a forty real life point game there did
13:54
pick up a ton of periphials. His assists were down at three, which
13:58
was pretty pretty close to his season low in terms of assist and he still
14:03
put up a fifty spot right in terms of DraftKings scoring, he's just eighty
14:07
two hundred here. Do like that. Zion's got a decent matchup here as
14:11
well, and so does Joevel. You alluded to it, right, Centers
14:16
versus Charlotte here, Joevel's got a pretty solid matchup overall. The only issue
14:20
is is there's a lot of guys with with good matchups at the center position.
14:22
Right. I already talked about Daniel Gafford, We're gonna talk about Joe
14:26
Embiid, we talked about Miles Turner, and we got other guys like Anthony
14:31
Davis later and and total later against Atlanta, Right, So interesting there.
14:37
I think my two favorite plays here in this game are are Ingram and Brandon
14:41
Miller. But whatn't fault anyone for going to a guy like Zion or or
14:48
or or Joevel in this one either. Miles Bridges would be my other interest
14:54
in terms of Charlotte here, it's just he's got to get there. Man,
14:58
seventy five hundred is there? You want? You want him getting to
15:01
forty five fifty Draft Kings points, and I just don't know if he could
15:03
do it. So overall, I think it's a good game, to your
15:07
point, but there is a lot of games on the slate that have pretty
15:11
solid totals overall. Obviously, the games kicking us off two good ones to
15:18
start us here, jumping to the next one here, Hamiwich and there's definitely
15:22
bold concerning this one right Philly at home here sixteen point favorite two thirty five
15:28
is the toll total, and we got to talk about it. We got
15:31
to talk about Joel Embiid. This guy feels like he gets sixty DraftKings points
15:35
every single night. He's eleven eight. I'm seeing ten to twelve percent ownership
15:41
on him, So touch on that. Obviously, it's a very very good
15:43
match up here against Detroit, Like every position is, there is some blow
15:46
out concern, but you got to think if this game blows out, it's
15:48
got to be on the back of Joel Embiid. So where's your state take
15:52
on Joel Ebiid In terms of studs on this slate, we already talked about
15:54
Tyrese Halbert in that in that massive total of the start, I don't think
15:58
you can play two of them. So if you had to pick one Embiid
16:03
Haliburton, obviously different positions, positions do matter, but I think that is
16:07
a talking point because they are five hundred dollars apart from each other. Yeah,
16:10
I mean, I mean, Joel Embiid is set up to just absolutely
16:14
dominate tonight. Durn Out Marvin Bagley out. They have no big men to
16:19
guard Joel Embiid and the two big you know, the two big men they
16:23
had. He was going to dominate anyway. So uh, he should absolutely
16:29
dominate tonight. I mean, you said it. I mean there's sixteen point
16:33
favorites. They beat this team by thirty or forty points the other night.
16:37
You know, they were up big late, and so you know, is
16:38
he gonna get us full allotment of thirty six to thirty eight minutes would be
16:41
the question. I do love him. He's a great play, you know,
16:47
really really good play. Actually, I haven't decided yet if it's him
16:52
or Halliburton where I'm going or someone else, but I think he'll be tough
16:56
to fade, right, I mean, if you don't play him, you're
16:57
you're you're not playing because you think he's gonna play thirty minutes and gonna sit
17:03
out the whole fourth quarter. If you do play him, obviously you hope
17:06
that he gets his full allignment in the game stays closed. Just some other
17:10
pieces that I would potentially have interest in. I mean, obviously Tyrese Maxi's
17:15
certified baller as well. Eighty eight hundred, you know, or he's eighty
17:18
eight hundred. I'm sorry, on Fandel a little bit more expensive over on
17:22
DraftKings. Great play, great player. Uh, he takes the hit though,
17:26
being so expensive with with EMBIID. But I don't think I'll have any
17:32
interest in any of these pistons. Might have a little bit of interest to
17:38
Nicholas Patom, right, he's a little cheaper, you know, for salary
17:41
salary savings. Nicholas patom looks kind of good with all with all the peripherals
17:47
that he gets. But I really like Philly Tonight to win this game going
17:51
away, and it's just can we can we get up to EMBIID? Is
17:53
the question that you're gonna have to ask yourself. Yeah, I think this
17:56
game is joined Beider pass for me in the spot. Obviously it's a great
18:00
Joel Ebiid spot here in this one. I mean, the guys, what
18:07
a double double in seven straight as far as I can see, even even
18:12
probably more than that. Twelve Yeah, twelve straight games with a double double
18:18
in this one if I'm counting that correctly. So definitely live for that double
18:22
double eleven eight. I mean, if this game blows out, it's definitely
18:26
on the back of him. I think he can basically at this point pencil
18:30
him in for six sixty sixty five draftings points somewhere in that range. So
18:34
great stud, and I'm seeing decent, decently low ownership on him, at
18:40
least as it stands right now. I'm out on probably everyone else in this
18:44
game, though, I'm not going to get to guys like but Tom,
18:47
I get to get the reasoning. I just don't really think I mean,
18:49
he's getting a little ownership in this spot, just obviously due to the matchup
18:53
here against Detroit and people needing needing some salary savers. But I just don't
18:57
love it. I mean, this guy twenty twenty minutes, twenty five minutes,
19:03
I just don't know if that he can do enough in those minutes.
19:06
So Joel Embiid are passed for me in this spot. Obviously, great matchup
19:10
for him. Let's jump into the next time window here. The six thirty
19:14
window obviously got three games locking at six, three games locking at six thirty,
19:18
one standalone seven pm game, and then obviously the standalone Island game there
19:22
with the Knicks in Phoenix late, this next one not a ton of interest
19:27
for me. I think this game is a complete cross off for me here
19:30
Boston should be able to handle this team pretty easily here or Orlando Boston six
19:36
point favorites at home two twenty four is to total pace down spot here for
19:40
both teams defensive battle. I think this is a better real life game than
19:44
it is a DFS game. So no plays for me in this one.
19:47
Are you aligned? I think I have a little bit of interest here,
19:51
and the only reason is we have so many pieces missing. Porzingis is doubtful.
19:55
Cornette, the backup center, is out, Horford has already been listed
19:59
out. Jalen Brown is questionable. So a, we're gonna have some value
20:04
with some of the three K guys that are gonna get meaningful minutes and play
20:08
a lot more than they used to. And then b if Jalen Brown is
20:11
out, we know prazing this is out. That's gonna up my interest in
20:17
Jason Tatum. I mean, they're only they're only I think slated to score
20:21
one hundred and fourteen points, but those gotta come from somewhere. I think
20:22
Tatum has a really big game if Brown is out. So this is kind
20:26
of a wait and see for me. The Celtics that are gonna be starting
20:30
the three K Celtics guys that are gonna be starting. I will have some
20:33
interest in them, but based off they're gonna have to play, you know,
20:36
twenty five to thirty five minutes, depending on how the game goes.
20:38
Uh, just simply because they're out of body. So so wait and see
20:41
for me to who's in, who's out, who's starting, who's not kind
20:44
of thing. Yeah, I do see Jaylen Brown still question well, obviously
20:48
he misses that gives a big boost to guys like Derek White and Jason Tatum.
20:51
I see Nimisias Queita. I believe is gonna start at the five at
20:56
least projective to start at the five right now. He's three k flat.
21:00
We got him projected pretty well right now. Obviously, ownership is not going
21:03
to adjust yet. I would expect him to get a ton of ownership if
21:08
he does start at three k flat but uses up one of your center spots.
21:12
But it does allow I mean three k starter here, who's going to
21:15
play over twenty minutes? I mean if it allows you to get to a
21:21
guy like Embiid and Haliburton in your lineup, or a guy like Anthony Davis
21:26
in Halliburton, or I mean two of these studs definitely have to have interest
21:30
in him. I do think I saw that question in the chat. Who
21:34
is this Queta? That's likely the guy that's going to start at the five,
21:37
at least that's what we're projecting over here at ship Nation. He's played
21:41
fifteen and ten and fifteen minutes back to back his last two times he's touched
21:47
the court, but we could see, so wait for starters. Obviously,
21:51
we should have those starters, hopefully before those first three games tip off,
21:55
because this game does lock thirty minutes after that, so hopefully we at least
21:57
have the news. We should have the news for sure, but they could
22:00
go like I mean, O Shae Ber set right, Dougie Howser, Lamar
22:07
Stevens, So, I mean, they could do a lot of things.
22:10
That starting lineup is gonna be key. But we are projecting Quated to start
22:14
right now. At least that's what I'm looking at from a projection standpoint,
22:18
because we got him projected around twenty six or so at this time, and
22:22
at three K if he hits you twenty that's that's more than enough. So
22:26
monitor this for starters. Hard to really break it down without that, because
22:30
obviously, if Quita doesn't start, things are gonna change a lot and they
22:36
could run. Like I said, howser oshae Bersett, Lamar Stevens one of
22:38
those guys in there with with Tatum, Drew Holliday, Derek White. But
22:45
yeah, definitely injury news related in that one. Is good thing you did
22:48
bring that up, because I did not see that, and it is interesting
22:52
talking point for sure. Jumping in the next game here Atlanta Toronto. Another
22:59
six thirty PM game here, two forty three, so very very good total
23:03
in this one as well, and just a two point spread in this one
23:06
here, big pace up spot here for Toronto. Obviously Atlanta plays at a
23:11
lot of pace. Siakam, you got Trey Young, You got Jacob Poto
23:15
at five point nine k who I like in this matchup. Potal's obviously coming
23:19
off a smash game last time he faced these guys two nights ago, where
23:23
he played thirty two minutes went for forty seven. So I do think he
23:26
does pick up some more ownership because of that. I'm seeing a lot of
23:30
ownership go to this game. Though from an ownership standpoint, this game looks
23:33
to be higher owned just due to the pricing compared to that Indy Washington game,
23:37
right, because the pieces you want in Indy Washington are pretty expensive,
23:41
right, Haliburt and Kuzma. In this game, it's a little bit different.
23:45
Dennis Schroeder getting a lot of ownership right now, six to three,
23:48
Gary Trent Junior four K getting the ownership potals, sub six k getting ownership
23:52
after that big game two nights ago against the same team, og anybody,
23:56
Pascal Siakam, Scottie Barnes, all that ownership right now. I was going
24:00
to the Toronto side and the Atlanta side in the same game. Here going
24:04
pretty overlooked, So definitely hit on that. How much where you going Atlanta
24:07
Toronto? Well, Neds you missed last Friday when Tambo when I were talking
24:12
about the Hawks and I was pulling up my boy Garrison Matthews, Garrison the
24:18
goat Gary Byrd as we called him. He got eleven and a half DraftKings
24:22
points two nights ago when these two teams played, So just keep an eyeut
24:26
for him. But in all seriousness, uh, this game is gonna have
24:29
some good pieces, right. The two that I want to focus on are
24:33
gonna be Pascal Siakam, who pretty much dominated this game. The other night,
24:37
fifty four Draft Kings points. If DeAndre Hunter misses, he's questionable right
24:42
now. If I'm looking in the chat too, y'all are making me laugh
24:52
if that's what you're laughing at. Uh. If DeAndre Hunter misses, I
24:55
like, I like Siakam and then how could he not like Trey Young who
24:59
just had an app solute well of a game the other night. I think
25:02
seventeen the Sis to go along with thirty four real life points. Give me
25:04
Sam, give me Trey Young. I'll let you pronounce OG's last name.
25:10
I do like DeAndre Hunter if you were to play, but yeah, that's
25:14
that's kind of that's kind of it for me, would be Trey Young and
25:18
then Hunter if you were to play. Yeah, I do like a lot,
25:22
especially if Hunter misses, it increases his ownership. Obviously, Hunter is
25:26
a really good defender and new ones. I'm about to drive down to Milwaukee
25:29
right now. Buddy puts you in a headlock and suplex you off your uh,
25:33
off your top story there if you keep that up. Obviously, I'm
25:36
not a I'm not a not great in pronunciation. I get get little jabs
25:41
thrown at me all the time, but hey, I didn't. Uh,
25:42
I didn't major in pronunciation and English. I mean, we're just I'm just
25:45
out here doing my best self. I will just say O G from now
25:51
on. Obviously, if you watch the hockey shows, you see there's a
25:55
lot of weird names in NHL, and I put your all of them.
25:57
So, uh, it's just part of the bit at this point. But
26:00
I do like Siakam quite a bit. Obviously he gets better if Hunter misses.
26:07
With that matchup there, Hunter is still questionable. There's a lot of
26:11
good, good plays in this one. I really like total in this one.
26:15
Trey Young I think is a contrarian spend because I think if people are
26:18
going up at that position, they're going to try and get to Tyrese Haliburton
26:22
and Trey Young just nuked the squad for almost seventy DraftKings points two nights ago.
26:26
Right played thirty nine minutes and he shot thirteen to twenty seven. Took
26:32
twenty seven shot attempts, nine three points, right seventeen assists in that one.
26:37
I like going right back to the wall with Trey Young. I'm seeing
26:41
sub five percent ownership on him. I think the ping pong between Trey Young
26:44
and Siakam could could really do good in this game. I'm seeing decent ownership
26:49
on both of those guys in terms of not a ton and you could see
26:53
those guys go back and forth again in this one where obviously we just saw
26:56
that last time eight three, nine nine, two. Fairly priced guys get
27:02
you a different roster construction than going up to a Haliburd and going up to
27:04
a Joel Embiid all the way up. You kind of live in that more
27:07
mid tier sub ten K stud range overall just runs out your team's a lot
27:12
better. So I do like both of those guys. Clint Capella's got a
27:17
decent matchup. Scottie Barnes Bogdanovic has got a good matchup as well as six
27:22
point eight K for Bogdanovich here he's been absolutely crushing as well. So that's
27:26
another mid tier play that you can you can grab. So I do have
27:30
interest in him. And Bogdanovic has seemed pretty low ownership, and I mean
27:36
how much he just went for fifty six and forty and back to back games
27:38
playing over thirty minutes. What's your take on on bogdan here at sixty eight
27:42
hundred. Yeah, No, he's A. I think he's. I think
27:47
he's a strong play. I mean it was his minutes up the other night
27:49
because Hunter was out. Let me look at that real quick. But yeah,
27:53
I mean he's He's been having some really good games. I know we
27:57
talked about him last Friday as well. I don't think he's the worst play.
28:02
He got thirty two minutes of the night, and he's gonna chuck once
28:04
he gets in there, so I don't mind him. I don't think I'll
28:07
be getting to him, just based on who else we have tonight, but
28:11
I certainly wouldn't wouldn't hate both vow Dawn at all. I think he's I
28:17
think he's a solid play. I just don't think i'll get there. Yeah,
28:19
no, I just uh, there's a lot of good plays in this
28:22
game. I think my two favorites are are Siakam and Trey Young, the
28:26
two studs there. I definitely prefer Siakam to Scottie Barnes in this spot,
28:30
and then Total would probably be my third option from this game. So great
28:34
game there. Let's jumping in the next game. Here Lakers and the Spurs
28:41
in this one two thirty four total here Lakers seven point favorites pace up spot
28:47
for both of these teams. Victor Webba Yama nine to one. He's up
28:51
to nine to one now. He's been nuke in the slate his last three
28:53
sixty three, fifty one, sixty eight, and I mean he's not even
28:57
shooting that great from the four eleven, twenty one, seven of fifteen,
29:00
eight of twenty. He just does so much other I mean he's had twenty
29:04
eighteen thirteen rebounds with a couple buff at least four blocks, and all those
29:10
double digit points. I mean, live for a triple double every night.
29:12
Victor Wemby here nine point one K talk on him, and then I do
29:18
want you to bring up Devin Vassell and Kelden Johnson as two pretty chucky spur
29:22
option here. Vessel sixty three hundred has very very underwhelmed compared to that price
29:29
point. I mean his highest his highest score in the last week has been
29:33
thirty seven, which I don't know if that's enough at sixty three hundred dollars,
29:36
So hit on him. He's coming in thirty plus percent owned. And
29:38
then Keldon Johnson also getting twenty plus percent ownership in this one, so a
29:42
lot of ownership flocking to the Spurs, and then on the Lakers side,
29:47
I really like the spot for Anthony Davis. He's ten to three and you
29:51
could see an absolute smash spot here for a guy like Anthony Davis at very
29:55
low ownership. When you got guys like Joe Embiid, you got the punt
29:59
value center, the guys from Boston whoever gets to start there, you got
30:03
total, you got Miles Turner in that massive total to start. I just
30:07
don't see how people get to a guy like Anthony Davis and you can play
30:10
them at the power forward position, which which I really like. So I
30:12
have a lot of interest in the Anthony Davis, but I'll kick get over
30:15
to you Lakers Spurs. Where are you going? Yeah? This game is
30:18
you know they played the other night as well. I think Anthony Davis and
30:23
Wimby are both fine plays, especially on DraftKings. I don't think I'm gonna
30:27
get to either one on fandel just price a little bit higher than I'd like
30:30
to pay for them on FanDuel. But you know, we're talking DraftKings like
30:33
we mainly do here. It's tough for me to play, you know,
30:37
pop guys, there's just no telling what he's gonna do. In my opinion,
30:42
this Spurs team is not any good. They've lost about as many in
30:47
a row as the Pistons have. So I'm going to be lower than most
30:51
on Wimby tonight. I mean, obviously this is a great talent ninety one
30:53
hundred fair price, I'm gonna be lower on Wimby. I mean, Lebron
30:57
and Anthony Davis are both questionable, they'll both more than likely play. Uh
31:03
but you know you said in a minute ago, Devin Vassell, he would
31:07
probably be my favorite uh Spur that I have interest in. I don't mind
31:15
that sixty three hundred price tag. I think I think that would be where
31:18
i'd go. I would be Vacille for the Spurs, and then uh,
31:22
Spurs really bad guarding the point guard position. Give me, give me some,
31:26
give me some d loo D'Angelo Russell at seventy one hundred, I don't
31:30
I don't have I don't mind him at that price tag. Spurs are very
31:33
bad at guarding the point guard position, but lower on Wimby than most,
31:37
and then lower on a D than most as well. I'm gonna be a
31:41
little different than you in this one. Yeah, No, that's that's fine.
31:45
I do like ad quite a bit in this spot here. Jeremy Sochan
31:49
has has a decent, decent matchup here, fifty seven hundred for him,
31:53
pretty fair price point, but man, he's been horrible, so I don't
31:57
know if I can get there. I'm seeing a lot of ownership go to
32:00
these Spurs and I just hate that, right, that just feels gross on
32:02
an eight game slate to deal with Pop and his random stuff that he does
32:07
with his rotations and minutes, because I mean, I'm seeing the whole right
32:12
starting five, I believe projected at ten plus ten to thirty percent ownership between
32:15
them. Anthony Davis definitely my favorite play in this game, and then Wemby
32:21
would probably be my favorite Spur just because he's pretty low owned here and we
32:24
know the ceiling that this guy can have, right, I mean, he
32:28
has seventy point upside at nine point one k, which you just don't see
32:30
too much from a nine thousand dollars player. So two studs for me in
32:36
terms of cheap guys, I mean, Doug McDermott, I think it's just,
32:40
man, you're really banking on him hitting his shots when he's in there.
32:43
He's only going to see fifteen to probably twenty two minutes somewhere in that
32:46
range thirty three hundred. You could do worse there, And I really want
32:52
to limit these Spurs, man, because Vasel super chalky. I don't love
32:57
it at sixty three hundred, that's a chalk piece. I'm all right getting
33:00
off of a guy like Devin Visell here Keldon Johnson obviously, because he's coming
33:06
off a big game. Right. These two teams just played right two nights
33:08
ago, kind of the same situation as that Atlanta Toronto game. A little
33:13
rematch here, people are gonna click the game log and see what Kelden Johnson
33:16
did right forty seven zero point seven to five last game against the same matchup.
33:22
Man, It's just I hate these Spurs. I hate playing Spurs on
33:25
a big slate, so long way of saying, I'm a little bit underweight
33:30
on the Spurs. But from a stud contrarian standpoint, I really like Anthony
33:35
Davis in this matchup. Jump into Houston and Memphis here we got two games

34:28
total on the board here, This game is very, very gross from an
34:31
ownership standpoint. One guy's getting a little bit of ownership here, Terry Easton,
34:36
because of what he's been doing fifty two hundred. He's coming off of
34:38
back to back forty point games. So hit on Terry Easton and then any
34:44
other plays because I don't really like anyone outside of maybe a Tarre Easton in
34:49
this one. Yeah. The biggest talking point in this game, in my
34:52
opinion, is is what's the status of Desmond Bane missed the last game these
34:55
two teams played, So is he going to be in? Is he going
34:59
to be out? If he sits, I think you got to go to
35:01
Darren Jackson Junior, who's just been absolutely dynamite from a DFS perspective, dropping
35:08
a sixty five piece on these guys the other night fifty nine before that.
35:13
So Bain sits, you gotta like Jaren Jackson, and then I think you
35:15
also have to like the resurgence of d Rose five k on DraftKings. And
35:22
that's only if Bain sits. He played thirty one minutes of the night,
35:24
handled the ball quite a bit. So I'll mention those two. Your favorite
35:29
player that we talked about pre show, Dylan Brooks. I do not have
35:31
any interest in Dylan Dylan Brooks in the revenge spot. I'm not going to
35:38
Dylan Brooks to make that gross face. So you're so no dB tonight.
35:43
But Tari Easton, I think he's a great play He's a stud man,
35:45
he's fun to watch. Shot in a little bit more last game as well.
35:51
I don't mind Tarry Easton, he only played twenty seven minutes. But
35:55
you know, putting up forty plus DraftKings points doesn't a variety of different ways.
36:00
Just been a fantasy point for a minute. Monster. So give me
36:04
some Tarry Easton, give me some Jaron Jackson Junior, give me some d
36:07
Rose if Desmond Baane were to sit, But that would kind of limit my
36:12
exposure to this game. You said low total on the game the night.
36:16
Yeah, I do like Tarry Easton a decent amount because you could see him
36:20
close again over St Goon, right, obviously he closed over Sint Gooon last
36:25
game twenty seven minutes and back to that game, he's playing good off the
36:30
charts, right, He's a rebound machine, like the chats talking about double
36:34
double in both the last two games. Fifty two hundred still fair price point
36:37
for him. I do like Tarry Easton here, and then Derreck Rose is
36:40
probably my favorite Grizzly here especially. I mean, if Desmond Bay misses again,
36:45
Derek Rose at five k man against Houston here would be an excellent play.
36:51
So I really like Derek Rose, really like Tarry Easton in this game,
36:53
it's just a price point, stant price play with injuries that means more
36:59
than the over Vegas total, because the total in this one is just two
37:02
thirteen. But it's a close spread and it's more of a price standpoint.
37:07
These guys are all very fairly priced, especially with the high usage guy like
37:09
Desmond Bane if he's out of the lineup there. If Desmond Bain is in
37:14
kind of takes me off of this game in general outside of Tyre Easton.
37:17
So I did want to bring that up. Let's jump into the last game
37:22
of the slate here. Eric Gordon questionable in this game. Outside of that,
37:25
I don't see a ton here pretty girls game overall, but the total
37:30
two thirty two five point spread in this one, Phoenix five point favorites at
37:35
home here? Where are you going? Phoenix and the Knicks? Yeah,
37:40
this game should be should be an interesting game. I mean, the big
37:44
three I think are playing tonight with Durant, Bill and Booker. They're still
37:49
kind of trying to get their chemistry together with one another. No Mitchell Robinson
37:52
obviously. Again, so Hartenstein is not the worst play on the slate,
37:57
just a value center, but I think the center position is so good tonight.
38:00
You probably don't need to go there. My favorite I guess my favorite
38:07
play that I would that would play tonight, just just based on the price
38:10
if we needed to get there. Been starting recently. Dante DiVincenzo. Don't
38:15
mind DiVincenzo tonight, another Wisco boy. I think, if I'm not mistaken,
38:19
Nate, give me some Dante in that late night game against this big
38:23
three. But those Sons are just tough to predict now, So give me
38:27
some Dante and that would kind of be the limit of my exposure. Yeah,
38:30
I don't love I don't love this game in general. I mean,
38:34
maybe Jalen Brunson, but overall, I just don't like this game. I
38:37
mean, we've got a lot of really good games, right, the Indie
38:40
Washington game obviously good game. Atlanta Toronto is a good game. I like
38:44
that Spurs Lakers game as a good game. And then you got you got
38:47
mb right in that Philly Detroit game. Obviously there's a lot of blowout concern
38:52
in that one. But this one not really a ton of interest for me
38:55
in this one. How much you want to give a play of the day
39:00
before we get it out of here? I know all our guy Neil in
39:01
the chat is making fun of my pronunciation again, right the o g blank
39:06
play of the day right in the chat. I'll kick it to you,
39:09
man, Why don't you give the people a little play of the day for
39:13
this Friday afternoon here on this eight gamer my Friday play of the day.
39:17
Oh you see, you threw me off. Let me let me find one.
39:22
I'm gonna go to. Where am I gonna go? Let me go
39:27
to New Orleans and Charlotte. I'm gonna give out my play of the day
39:31
seventy one. Jonas valentiunis ever like Jonas to put up a fifty piece tonight
39:37
against these hornets. Let's say forty five, just to be safe, forty
39:40
five to fifty Jonas valentiunas, give me about seven x of that salary of
39:45
his. No, I get it all right, Jonas valachuous, that's a
39:49
good play there, Neil. I'm just I'm just messing with you. I
39:52
see, uh see Sean Sullivan pool party. I don't know if that's the
39:54
pool I want to be jumping in, because man, he's uh, it's
39:58
pretty gross. I think this time of the year, I'd rather have a
40:00
hot tub and I'll tell you what, Jordan Pool ain't ain't getting hot from
40:04
the from the court and warming up that water at all. So you can
40:07
go swim with with Jordan Poole in that pool there. I'm gonna I'm gonna
40:12
be good on that one. But I'm going to this guy that I talked
40:15
about a lot ten to three. He is questionable like he is every freaking
40:20
night. It's Anthony Davis here playing at the power forward position against the Spurs.
40:24
I am. I'm I'm calling Anthony Davis sixty five plus here tonight in
40:28
this matchup against the Spurs, super low own. I'm seeing some five percent
40:31
on a guy like Anthony Davis. I think if people go to there,
40:35
they go to Lebron James for cheaper. It's an Anthony Davis smash spot here
40:38
tonight. How much any closing remarks before we get it out of here?
40:44
Now? The other thing I meant to say at earlier, Jake Swells,
40:46
it's your birthday. You said today, Happy birthday, and Donnie, Donnie's
40:51
in here somewhere too today, Donnie, happy birthday to you as well.
