- 1:16Speaker 1: but it's Friday. What's going on? My man?
- 1:19Speaker 3: Yeah, Merry Christmas, lady, Christmas. I had a good time
- 1:22Speaker 3: last night with my family. Hopefully.
- 1:24Speaker 2: How was yours?
- 1:25Speaker 3: I know you said you were sleeping. Seem us have
- 1:27Speaker 3: been in a food coma after good.
- 1:30Speaker 1: Games, just you know, all day affair and then yeah,
- 1:33Speaker 1: your boy Ham just shut it down about nine or
- 1:36Speaker 1: ten o'clock last night.
- 1:38Speaker 2: Nice.
- 1:39Speaker 3: I'd like to hear that you definitely missed out in
- 1:40Speaker 3: a really good game. There's some pretty good basketball being
- 1:43Speaker 3: played yesterday. Outside of really the first in the last game,
- 1:46Speaker 3: we're two really good games. Yeah, it's crazy just watching
- 1:50Speaker 3: Yokic play every single night, just put up these crazy scores.
- 1:54Speaker 2: But yeah, I got.
- 1:55Speaker 3: Four tickets tonight to the Millie. Hopefully give myself a
- 1:59Speaker 3: good shot at the end of the night. I'll be
- 2:01Speaker 3: flying watching the end of the games. Hopefully by the
- 2:05Speaker 3: time I land, i'll have a million dollars in my
- 2:06Speaker 3: draftings account.
- 2:07Speaker 2: That's a that's a plan.
- 2:08Speaker 3: But yeah, I'll be be heading to the airport right
- 2:11Speaker 3: after the slate loucks, so won't be able to watch
- 2:14Speaker 3: too much of it, but still still locked in, so
- 2:16Speaker 3: ready to talk some some Basketball's pretty pretty solid slate
- 2:20Speaker 3: as well, some really high game totals. Uh, three games
- 2:22Speaker 3: that I really want to get into. And I think
- 2:24Speaker 3: there's some other sneaky spots to attack as well.
- 2:29Speaker 2: Yeah, I lose you no ip talking.
- 2:33Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, no, no, no, excellent. Yeah, that's the best
- 2:36Speaker 1: you Uh, you build your you know, one of your
- 2:38Speaker 1: four teams, You get on the plane, then you land
- 2:40Speaker 1: wherever you're going, and in your million dollars richer. Uh,
- 2:43Speaker 1: there's no better way to do it. And just you
- 2:45Speaker 1: can find say the final sweat, that should be good.
- 2:47Speaker 1: So hopefully some of you folks have a ticket in
- 2:50Speaker 1: there tonight. I saw something as Pablo. I'm assuming that's
- 2:54Speaker 1: Pallo chalk a Trapp or what we'll get into it. Ricky,
- 2:56Speaker 1: appreciate you tuning in. As always, We got the we
- 2:59Speaker 1: got the crew here today. We got go collect, we
- 3:02Speaker 1: got Mike, we got Mighty Mighty Saint, we got Para
- 3:05Speaker 1: Bay as always, Sean Sullivan as always, mister Mike BG
- 3:08Speaker 1: little neck coaches in here. What's going on? Coach? We
- 3:11Speaker 1: got Ricky in here, Minnesota, holler, everybody is in here
- 3:15Speaker 1: with us today. We're gonna get right to it. Try
- 3:17Speaker 1: to get in and out of here in forty five minutes.
- 3:19Speaker 1: Then those can listen on playback as well. But Rio,
- 3:22Speaker 1: we'll go the first game. Some big news here. We
- 3:24Speaker 1: got the Heat at the Hawks. We know that heat
- 3:27Speaker 1: can't guard the three point If there's one thing I've
- 3:29Speaker 1: learned from Rio, it's the heat. He can't guard the
- 3:31Speaker 1: three point line. So that should be interesting. But Bam
- 3:35Speaker 1: Bam is the biggest news. He is listed as questionable
- 3:37Speaker 1: slash doubtful, So we're gonna act like he's not in.
- 3:41Speaker 1: As you could see in the stone, we don't think
- 3:44Speaker 1: he's gonna get any minutes as well. But talk to
- 3:45Speaker 1: me about this game heat at the Hawks a staggering
- 3:49Speaker 1: two hundred and fifty point game total. Rio.
- 3:52Speaker 3: Yeah, so this was the one I kind of alluded to,
- 3:54Speaker 3: A really really good game to attack on both ends.
- 3:57Speaker 3: You kind of have a lot lining up with the
- 4:00Speaker 3: icing being pretty soft, you have all the value on
- 4:02Speaker 3: the Miami side, and then really good matchups all around here.
- 4:06Speaker 3: Like you said, with Miami giving up a ton of
- 4:08Speaker 3: threes as of late, it kind of sets up really
- 4:10Speaker 3: big for the Hawks on offense. But then on the
- 4:13Speaker 3: Miami side you also have some pretty good spots as well.
- 4:16Speaker 3: Atlanta is dead last and defensive rating over the last
- 4:18Speaker 3: two weeks, so a really good spot for Miami to
- 4:21Speaker 3: get it going. They've been playing some subpart defense as
- 4:24Speaker 3: of late as well. Miami has a couple of really
- 4:27Speaker 3: bad outings, given up a ton of three pointers.
- 4:29Speaker 2: As of lade.
- 4:30Speaker 3: So yeah, I really really liked this game a lot,
- 4:32Speaker 3: and the way that I'm going to be prioritizing the
- 4:34Speaker 3: Miami stuff.
- 4:36Speaker 2: Colo Ware is the first guy I'm looking to.
- 4:39Speaker 3: Should be fairly safe now, I think from a minute standpoint,
- 4:42Speaker 3: kind of talked about it the last time, where was
- 4:45Speaker 3: getting a ton of chalk that just all like the
- 4:47Speaker 3: negative negativity from the coach speaker a round where about him,
- 4:51Speaker 3: you know, relying too much in the three pointer and
- 4:54Speaker 3: the minutes could have been all over the place, and
- 4:56Speaker 3: that really came to fruition. He got benched, not really
- 5:00Speaker 3: bench but just didn't see his normal rotation in the
- 5:03Speaker 3: second half of the last game and kind of failed
- 5:05Speaker 3: in a pretty big way at chock. So if you
- 5:07Speaker 3: faded that, you were probably looking pretty good. But tonight
- 5:10Speaker 3: it's gonna be a lot tougher to get away from him.
- 5:12Speaker 3: He leads the Heat in fantasy points for a minute
- 5:15Speaker 3: at one point two eight with Bam and here off
- 5:17Speaker 3: the court over the course of the last two seasons.
- 5:19Speaker 3: It's a little bit higher this season, but a smaller sample,
- 5:22Speaker 3: but you also have a really great matchup. The Hawks
- 5:24Speaker 3: are allowing the third most fantasy points to opposing centers
- 5:27Speaker 3: over the last seven games, so it really sets up
- 5:29Speaker 3: as a really big spot for klow War So he's
- 5:31Speaker 3: kind of the guy that you click on first in
- 5:34Speaker 3: this game, I think from the Miami side, and then
- 5:37Speaker 3: it gets I mean, it's not really tougher, it's just
- 5:39Speaker 3: how many guys do you want? Are you comfortable playing
- 5:41Speaker 3: between some of these other guys that are getting ownership.
- 5:45Speaker 3: You got Norman Powell looking like one of if not
- 5:48Speaker 3: v Chock. He's plays in the entire slate, and that's
- 5:51Speaker 3: kind of one that I could see myself getting away from.
- 5:53Speaker 2: Now.
- 5:53Speaker 3: I'll probably play him in one to two of my
- 5:56Speaker 3: lineup in the Millie tonight, but he is kind of
- 6:00Speaker 3: in line with Wiggins and Hami Hawks, who are cheaper
- 6:03Speaker 3: from a fantasy points for a minute standpoint, the usage
- 6:06Speaker 3: will definitely be a lot higher for norm than those
- 6:08Speaker 3: other two guys. He sees like a thirty one percent
- 6:11Speaker 3: usage rate when Bam and Hero off the court the season,
- 6:16Speaker 3: and I don't really worry too much about the match,
- 6:17Speaker 3: but I don't think that it might be Dyson Daniels
- 6:20Speaker 3: on him because he's their number one option on the offense.
- 6:22Speaker 3: Of If that's the case, then you could make the
- 6:26Speaker 3: case that it's a slightly negative spot for Norma Powell,
- 6:29Speaker 3: but the usage is going to be there I just
- 6:31Speaker 3: don't know if he's really worth the fifty five percent ownership.
- 6:34Speaker 2: That he's getting.
- 6:35Speaker 3: But he does fill a really weak small forward position,
- 6:38Speaker 3: so I think if you're playing him, you probably want
- 6:39Speaker 3: to play him at small forward. I kind of prefer
- 6:43Speaker 3: Homy Hawk as though, because he does a little bit
- 6:45Speaker 3: more of everything, and he I wouldn't say he has
- 6:47Speaker 3: triple double upside, but definitely double double upside. I think
- 6:49Speaker 3: that he's going to be handling the ball a lot
- 6:51Speaker 3: more because they do run a lot of their offense
- 6:53Speaker 3: through Bam and through Tyler Hero, So I think that
- 6:55Speaker 3: the ball is going to be in his hands a
- 6:56Speaker 3: good bit tonight, and he should avoid some of the
- 6:59Speaker 3: better defensive stoppers on the Atlanta side. So I think
- 7:04Speaker 3: Jimi is my second favorite option on Miami, and then
- 7:07Speaker 3: it would be Norm and then it would be Wiggins.
- 7:09Speaker 3: It's just a really good price for Andrew Wiggins at
- 7:11Speaker 3: five point seven K thing.
- 7:13Speaker 2: I want to be mindful about how I'm playing these guys.
- 7:15Speaker 3: I'm not sure you're probably if you're just running like
- 7:19Speaker 3: a dry optimizer build, you can probably get a lot
- 7:22Speaker 3: of four of these Miami guys. I'm not sure I
- 7:25Speaker 3: necessarily want to be there. I think that a max
- 7:27Speaker 3: two of like the norm Hawkes and Wiggins, and then
- 7:31Speaker 3: probably tossing in like Pelly Larson would would make the
- 7:33Speaker 3: most sense, or maybe just adding Way into that and
- 7:37Speaker 3: like making a max three would make the most sense,
- 7:40Speaker 3: or just max three Miami overall, you definitely want like
- 7:43Speaker 3: one to two of Miami guys and probably all of
- 7:46Speaker 3: your lineups tonight, I would think just with the matchup
- 7:48Speaker 3: and value considered, but that's kind of how I'm viewing
- 7:52Speaker 3: those top guys, and then I would be mixing in
- 7:54Speaker 3: the Pelly Larsons and Davion Mitchell's and even Jovich. I
- 7:58Speaker 3: would be max one of Daveon Andrew Smith if you're
- 8:01Speaker 3: considering him. I would be max one of Yovich and
- 8:03Speaker 3: where and then definitely a max two of Larsen, Hawkez
- 8:09Speaker 3: and Powell.
- 8:10Speaker 2: I think as how I'd be approaching it.
- 8:14Speaker 3: And then from the Atlanta side, the matchup definitely got
- 8:17Speaker 3: a lot softer for Jalen Johnson at ten K. He's
- 8:19Speaker 3: shown that he can still put up some really big
- 8:21Speaker 3: games while playing alongside Trey. His usage is held up
- 8:25Speaker 3: in a pretty big way. Perfole stats are definitely there
- 8:27Speaker 3: It's definitely a spot you want to attack Miami more
- 8:29Speaker 3: with perimeter guys, which is less of Jalen Johnson's game,
- 8:32Speaker 3: but I think with Ban being out kind of negates
- 8:34Speaker 3: that spot. So you know, He's had a twenty nine
- 8:37Speaker 3: percent usage rate in the first three games with Trey
- 8:39Speaker 3: back and still shown really really strong upsides. So I'm
- 8:42Speaker 3: totally fine with Jalen Johnson. I do have Trey slightly
- 8:46Speaker 3: ahead of him, especially now that I'm not sure what
- 8:48Speaker 3: we have him for ownership, but I'm seeing at one
- 8:52Speaker 3: of the sources that I use he's single digit, like
- 8:54Speaker 3: five percent. If that's actually the case, Yeah, it looks
- 8:57Speaker 3: like Saber has him for five percent. Then he looks
- 9:01Speaker 3: like probably one of the better GPP plays in my eyes.
- 9:04Speaker 3: He has struggled in some of the games against Bolshaw,
- 9:06Speaker 3: They've generally had a pretty good plan against him, but
- 9:09Speaker 3: I think this is a different Miami team. They're playing
- 9:11Speaker 3: a lot faster, and they're not going to send a
- 9:14Speaker 3: ton of help towards Trey. They give up a ton
- 9:17Speaker 3: of threes as of this entire season, but as of
- 9:20Speaker 3: late for sure, and with this being Tray's fourth game back,
- 9:23Speaker 3: we saw him get up to thirty one minutes last game.
- 9:27Speaker 3: He's probably closer to full than he would be limited,
- 9:30Speaker 3: so I would probably be projecting him at like thirty
- 9:33Speaker 3: four tonight, and if that's the case, he's going to
- 9:35Speaker 3: project like one of the best values on the entire slate.
- 9:37Speaker 3: So I like Trey Aton definitely gonna be a guy
- 9:40Speaker 3: I'm heavily overweight on eight point AK is a really
- 9:42Speaker 3: really good price sect for him, so I'm very into
- 9:44Speaker 3: trade tonight, and then the secondary guys for Atlanta are
- 9:49Speaker 3: much less priorities. I think that there's definitely some upside
- 9:51Speaker 3: on a Congu. You're gonna need him to hit his
- 9:53Speaker 3: threes and it's a good matchup for three point shooters.
- 9:56Speaker 3: So definitely a guy to consider in the best game
- 9:58Speaker 3: environment in the entire slate. And then I'm not really
- 10:01Speaker 3: going to Dyson or Nika Alexander at these price tags
- 10:04Speaker 3: with the team fully healthy. Resa Schet is a guy
- 10:07Speaker 3: I would keep my playerpool just with the small forward
- 10:09Speaker 3: position being very weak and a good dec at three
- 10:12Speaker 3: point shooter, good matchup for him, so I keep him
- 10:15Speaker 3: in the playerpool for sure, because there's we're going to
- 10:17Speaker 3: get some really big scores out of this game, I
- 10:19Speaker 3: would imagine.
- 10:20Speaker 1: Who starts once Bam is out? Is it Hokyas, is
- 10:25Speaker 1: it somebody else? Is it Larson? Who's going to get
- 10:28Speaker 1: the starting nod?
- 10:29Speaker 2: You think? I think it's going to be Pelley Larson.
- 10:32Speaker 3: They've really liked him in the starting unit, and then
- 10:34Speaker 3: there's some push and pull there between him and Homy
- 10:36Speaker 3: hawk Is because those are the two guys that would
- 10:39Speaker 3: probably fill in the most of those minutes for Bam.
- 10:42Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 10:43Speaker 1: So we're currently showing twenty percent ownership on Where than
- 10:45Speaker 1: twenty you can see it twenty six on POW, twenty
- 10:49Speaker 1: two on Wiggins. Do you kind of see it that
- 10:51Speaker 1: way as well? Or do you think Where's going to
- 10:53Speaker 1: get get higher on than those other two?
- 10:56Speaker 2: Sorry? Could you repeat it?
- 10:58Speaker 1: The ownership we have where being the fourth highest owned
- 11:02Speaker 1: Heat player, with Hotkez, Pal and Wiggins all garnering more
- 11:07Speaker 1: ownership on DK. What do you think about that? Is
- 11:09Speaker 1: that you think that's accurate?
- 11:11Speaker 3: I can't imagine he'll be that low owned. I think
- 11:14Speaker 3: people are gonna be pretty excited to play him even
- 11:15Speaker 3: after he failed last time out. It's the center position
- 11:20Speaker 3: is kind of where the strong values coming from. But
- 11:22Speaker 3: I think that you're probably gonna want where in dia
- 11:25Speaker 3: Bote is the two guys at the center position, and
- 11:28Speaker 3: then people are going to be looking to play Bobby
- 11:30Speaker 3: Portis and Sandrew who will talk about him a little bit.
- 11:32Speaker 3: But those guys are both powerful and eligible, so you
- 11:35Speaker 3: can easily play for center tonight. Yeah, I would be.
- 11:39Speaker 3: I'd be very surprised if where it came in at
- 11:41Speaker 3: that like twenty ish percent range.
- 11:43Speaker 1: Yeah, excellent breakdown there. Trey Young eighty four hundred dollars
- 11:46Speaker 1: for anybody that plays over on fandel as well. That's
- 11:50Speaker 1: obviously a super good price when he's eighty eight hundred
- 11:53Speaker 1: on DK. Just keep that in mind. Excellent stuff there.
- 11:58Speaker 1: Trying to see if I saw any questions in the
- 11:59Speaker 1: chain kind of sort of how many players from this game?
- 12:03Speaker 1: Is too many players from this game? It's five too
- 12:05Speaker 1: mini Rio, No.
- 12:07Speaker 2: I think that you could.
- 12:09Speaker 3: I think you could do that because three from Miami
- 12:11Speaker 3: is pretty easy to do. And then it's just a
- 12:13Speaker 3: matter of whether or not you are fine playing like
- 12:18Speaker 3: Jalen Johnson and Trey Young together.
- 12:20Speaker 2: It is.
- 12:20Speaker 3: It does eat up a lot of salary, but there
- 12:23Speaker 3: is an outlire situation where this game just goes nuts
- 12:27Speaker 3: and Trey puts up like sixty and Jalen goes for
- 12:30Speaker 3: like sixty five.
- 12:31Speaker 2: I think that's very much in play.
- 12:33Speaker 1: What about Jalen, Trey and a Congo. Would you play
- 12:35Speaker 1: those three together if you were playing three Hawks or
- 12:37Speaker 1: I wouldn't.
- 12:38Speaker 3: Yeah, that's just eating up too much salary. And also
- 12:40Speaker 3: you're you're yeah, it's just eating too much salary. And
- 12:44Speaker 3: I don't know if I see all three of those
- 12:45Speaker 3: guys hitting in a big way.
- 12:47Speaker 1: Yep and New It's kind of said the same thing
- 12:49Speaker 1: after that. Appreciates you happening in there. New ones as well.
- 12:51Speaker 1: Moving on to the next game, we got the hornets
- 12:54Speaker 1: at the Magic We have some Palo Chalk possibly neither
- 12:58Speaker 1: one of the Wadner boys. I saw right before the
- 13:00Speaker 1: show that Googa got rolled out. I saw Jalen Suggs
- 13:03Speaker 1: got rolled out as well as well. So you're gonna
- 13:06Speaker 1: see a lot of Pallow, a lot of Wendell Carter
- 13:08Speaker 1: Junior dbayeh. You know, not a hot not as high
- 13:12Speaker 1: a total. You have two hundred and twenty eight and
- 13:15Speaker 1: a half point total. Talk to me a little bit
- 13:16Speaker 1: about this game, my boy kan Ka Knoople taking on
- 13:19Speaker 1: this Magic team five and a half point dogs.
- 13:24Speaker 3: Yeah, So the Charlotte side I don't really have a
- 13:28Speaker 3: ton of interest outside of Diabaate. The main reason is
- 13:31Speaker 3: because I think the guy that you would want to
- 13:34Speaker 3: attack the Orlando defense with would be LaMelo. Now, he
- 13:37Speaker 3: is really cheap and we've seen him put up some
- 13:39Speaker 3: really big scores in limited minutes. You are kind of
- 13:42Speaker 3: asking for a perfect run out for that to happen.
- 13:44Speaker 3: But it is a good spot for on ball guys.
- 13:46Speaker 3: The Magic are a team that gives up a lot
- 13:48Speaker 3: of volume to pick and roll guys, So that's kind
- 13:50Speaker 3: of LaMelo's music. And I don't really think that enough
- 13:53Speaker 3: of like Brandon Miller and and con are doing enough
- 13:56Speaker 3: of the ball handling and playing enough minutes with sex
- 13:59Speaker 3: and and Trey all Back taking away some of that
- 14:01Speaker 3: ball handling for them to be really viable. So I
- 14:04Speaker 3: would be if you're playing any of those guys above Diabate,
- 14:07Speaker 3: I would probably be Max one of all those guys.
- 14:11Speaker 3: And I do like LaMelo the most at eight a K.
- 14:13Speaker 3: I just don't really think that this scenario where he's
- 14:15Speaker 3: playing like twenty eight to thirty minutes out of nowhere,
- 14:17Speaker 3: it's probably twenty five to twenty six, which he's put
- 14:21Speaker 3: up forty four and forty three in his last two
- 14:23Speaker 3: games that he's played that many, So there's still upside
- 14:26Speaker 3: for him at that price tag, and the matchup's really good.
- 14:28Speaker 3: So I like LaMelo the most if considering those guys,
- 14:30Speaker 3: but Diabat going to be starting again with no cock Branner,
- 14:33Speaker 3: no Plumbley.
- 14:34Speaker 2: He's going to be running away with the center minutes.
- 14:36Speaker 3: It's pretty much him and Salon that are doing the
- 14:39Speaker 3: all the front court minutes right now for those guys
- 14:42Speaker 3: being out, and Diabate is a really really easy click
- 14:44Speaker 3: played twenty eight thirty six minutes in his last two games,
- 14:47Speaker 3: just a rebounding machine can add some stocks as well,
- 14:50Speaker 3: so he's a very strong value play. Don't really worry
- 14:52Speaker 3: too much about the matchup. I think the only downside
- 14:55Speaker 3: to him is some foul trouble because Orlando is a
- 14:58Speaker 3: team that's going to be attacking the basket a lot.
- 15:00Speaker 2: But he's shown to be.
- 15:02Speaker 3: A good defender without fouling, so I think that he's
- 15:05Speaker 3: probably fine there, but that would be the downside risk
- 15:07Speaker 3: for him. And then on the Orlando side, I'm gonna
- 15:11Speaker 3: be uh probably Max one of Paulo, Bain and Black.
- 15:16Speaker 3: You could probably just be Max two and that would
- 15:18Speaker 3: cover it all. But I do prefer Paulo the most here.
- 15:21Speaker 3: The Hornets aren't a great rim defense. Polo has got
- 15:24Speaker 3: triple double upside, been playing really well and doing a
- 15:26Speaker 3: lot of the heavy lifting offensively for Orlando with Fronz
- 15:30Speaker 3: and Suggs out, and they'll be out again tonight's I
- 15:32Speaker 3: like him the most.
- 15:33Speaker 2: Bain is a.
- 15:34Speaker 3: Little bit more scoring dependent because he has him been
- 15:36Speaker 3: adding a ton of the peripherals stats with Anthony Black
- 15:39Speaker 3: and the starring lamp, He's been taking away some rebounding
- 15:42Speaker 3: and some assists. He's a pretty big guard, so he
- 15:44Speaker 3: can can do that. Then obviously Paulo is gonna eat
- 15:47Speaker 3: up a lot of the assists and the rebound as well,
- 15:49Speaker 3: so you're gonna need Bain to really put up a
- 15:52Speaker 3: really big scoring night, which he can do. He's had
- 15:54Speaker 3: forty six plus DK points in two of his last
- 15:56Speaker 3: three games. I think the matchup is pretty good. I
- 15:58Speaker 3: think it'll be con on him probably, so good spot
- 16:01Speaker 3: to attack a rookie. And then I don't really have
- 16:04Speaker 3: a lot of interest in Black right now. He's getting
- 16:06Speaker 3: up there in price and just not really that great
- 16:09Speaker 3: of a permanent guy. So it's pretty much Paulo and
- 16:12Speaker 3: Bain as the two guys I'm prioritizing, and then with
- 16:16Speaker 3: even with with Goga out, I don't really know if
- 16:21Speaker 3: that does enough on the back end to really consider
- 16:24Speaker 3: these guys. It's probably gonna be a mixture of Jonathan
- 16:26Speaker 3: Isaac and I don't know really how they view no Appenda,
- 16:29Speaker 3: but he's kind of more like a forward, so they
- 16:32Speaker 3: might be mixing him in at like the center for
- 16:35Speaker 3: some small ball stuff because it'll be Salon in the
- 16:38Speaker 3: second unit who's not really a true center, so they
- 16:40Speaker 3: could mix.
- 16:40Speaker 2: In some small ball stuff.
- 16:42Speaker 3: But definitely Penda is a guy that I'm keeping an
- 16:44Speaker 3: eye on because he's shown some pretty good permanent stats.
- 16:47Speaker 3: Is per thirty six numbers are really good. He'd be
- 16:49Speaker 3: averaging the double double if he just got more minutes,
- 16:52Speaker 3: So he's a pretty good rebounder. Some I'm keeping an
- 16:55Speaker 3: eye on him, but he's pretty thin.
- 16:58Speaker 1: Yeah, excellent stuff there we have on the stone. It's
- 17:02Speaker 1: showing LaMelo at twenty seven minutes. I'm assuming that's kind
- 17:07Speaker 1: of what he's been playing. Yeah, and he hasn't gotten
- 17:09Speaker 1: above twenty nine. I know he came back from an injury,
- 17:12Speaker 1: so yeah, that's man to pay that price tag. We
- 17:15Speaker 1: probably need a little bit more minutes in my opinion
- 17:17Speaker 1: on him. So good call there, and dia Bote looks
- 17:21Speaker 1: good in our projections as well. Excellent breakdown stuff. There
- 17:24Speaker 1: any interest in Seon or saloon if you're doing one hundred.
- 17:28Speaker 2: And fifty No, not really.
- 17:31Speaker 1: Yeah, everybody thinks everybody likes ball the ball though new
- 17:35Speaker 1: One's likes ball in there. I've seen other couple balls
- 17:37Speaker 1: in there as well, So yeah, good stuff there. I'm
- 17:39Speaker 1: out on ball. I think you are as well in
- 17:42Speaker 1: dia Boate. It's kind of your dude for the Hornets.
- 17:45Speaker 1: Moving on to the next one. Big news here, Scottie Barnes,
- 17:50Speaker 1: I believe it's questionable, so obviously we want to make
- 17:52Speaker 1: sure that we get that news. But you got the
- 17:54Speaker 1: Raptors taking on the Wizards. This Wizard's team, man, I
- 17:58Speaker 1: feel like they're a fantasy and fantasy haven for the
- 18:01Speaker 1: opposing team, So talk to me a little bit about
- 18:03Speaker 1: this game. You got the Raptors slated to score one
- 18:05Speaker 1: hundred and sixteen points, seven point favorites, in this one,
- 18:09Speaker 1: Wizards look somewhat healthy. Right you got star back. It
- 18:12Speaker 1: looks like Chris Middleton's gonna be the line up cooler
- 18:15Speaker 1: Bally George and McCollum raptors at Wizards Rio.
- 18:19Speaker 3: Yeah, the Scottie Barnes news is obviously probably the biggest
- 18:23Speaker 3: on the slate that would open up a ton of value.
- 18:25Speaker 3: I think that it would be Jamison Battle getting the start.
- 18:29Speaker 3: We don't really have to guess on this one though,
- 18:32Speaker 3: because it is the first long time on the slate,
- 18:34Speaker 3: so we'll have that news.
- 18:35Speaker 2: But that's definitely going to open up.
- 18:37Speaker 3: A lot of value and a lot of ownership will
- 18:39Speaker 3: be flooding to these guys like Brandon Ingram Manual quickly
- 18:43Speaker 3: you are already projecting to be somewhat shocking to and
- 18:45Speaker 3: I would be seeing a lot more ownership, and it's
- 18:48Speaker 3: a really good matchup for these guys. Like you said,
- 18:50Speaker 3: Wizards do give up a lot of fantasy points. They
- 18:52Speaker 3: do have one defensive stopper in their team, so I
- 18:55Speaker 3: think that it could be tougher for whoever cool of
- 18:58Speaker 3: Bali is starting, and I wouldn'ticipate it's going to be
- 19:01Speaker 3: him on brandon Ingram, but Overall, offensively, the Toronto Raptors
- 19:06Speaker 3: are one of the best transition offenses in the league,
- 19:08Speaker 3: top four in transition offense, going up against the team
- 19:12Speaker 3: in Washington that is dead last in transition defense. So
- 19:15Speaker 3: lots of like about this matchup for the Toronto guys.
- 19:19Speaker 3: And if Scotty's in, he's clearly a very good option,
- 19:21Speaker 3: gonna be able to get whatever he wants on offense.
- 19:23Speaker 3: I don't think that there's gonna be anybody in front
- 19:25Speaker 3: of him that could really stop him. See, I like
- 19:30Speaker 3: Scotty a ton. If he's in, I'm more so out
- 19:34Speaker 3: on Ingram. I think he's gonna be very tough to
- 19:38Speaker 3: get away from if Scotty were to be out. But
- 19:41Speaker 3: like I said, he should be guarded by blow cool BALI.
- 19:45Speaker 3: He had a pretty good game against them earlier this
- 19:47Speaker 3: season forty seven DK points. I don't really know what
- 19:50Speaker 3: would be enough for Ingram on this type of slate.
- 19:52Speaker 3: I think we're gonna need some pretty big scores, and
- 19:54Speaker 3: I don't know how often he's topping fifty. He's really
- 19:58Speaker 3: done that twice this season. He does have a very
- 20:00Speaker 3: solid floor, Like if he gets you forty to forty three,
- 20:04Speaker 3: I think that's probably the most likely outcome. I just
- 20:07Speaker 3: don't know how often he's getting fifty plus, which I
- 20:09Speaker 3: think we would need.
- 20:10Speaker 2: On this slate.
- 20:11Speaker 3: So for that reasons, I kind of prefer emanual quickly
- 20:14Speaker 3: by a decently wide margin. He actually has better permanent
- 20:17Speaker 3: numbers than Brandon Ingram this season. With JACKA Pertle and
- 20:21Speaker 3: Archie Barrett off the court, and then adding Scotty Barnes,
- 20:24Speaker 3: it quickly becomes a very strong option one point two
- 20:27Speaker 3: to six fantasy points for minute with those guys off
- 20:29Speaker 3: the court this season, and he gets a much softer
- 20:31Speaker 3: matchup going to be guarded by c J.
- 20:32Speaker 2: McCollum.
- 20:33Speaker 3: He has a double digit assist in three of his
- 20:35Speaker 3: last four games, so the potentials are coming up. And
- 20:37Speaker 3: then if he can get a double double, which he
- 20:39Speaker 3: is very likely to do in this matchup, or at
- 20:41Speaker 3: least he should get double digit points in this game,
- 20:44Speaker 3: then I think it may quickly has better points for
- 20:48Speaker 3: doll upside than Brandon Ingram, so I'll be prioritizing him
- 20:52Speaker 3: in that situation. And then Sandro should get the start
- 20:54Speaker 3: here and potential for more minutes. If Colin Murray Boyles
- 20:57Speaker 3: were to miss, I don't know how much of Murray
- 21:00Speaker 3: Boyle's minutes is going to be spread out amongst some
- 21:03Speaker 3: of these other guys. It would probably be Jonathan Mobo,
- 21:06Speaker 3: and I don't really know how much confidence they have
- 21:08Speaker 3: in him, so we might get thirty two minutes or
- 21:11Speaker 3: something like that from Sandro if Murray Boyls were to miss.
- 21:14Speaker 3: I've been playing around like thirty in the games that
- 21:17Speaker 3: Pertal is out the season, averaging thirty three DK points.
- 21:20Speaker 3: But obviously the matchup is one of the best ones
- 21:22Speaker 3: you can get four posting centers against the Wizards. Also,
- 21:26Speaker 3: having power forward eligibility is huge in this light because
- 21:29Speaker 3: you can play two to three centers with those two
- 21:33Speaker 3: guys with where and via Bat and then Sandro. I
- 21:36Speaker 3: think that's a pretty pretty solid starting point. You get
- 21:38Speaker 3: a lot of value there, So I like Sandro a
- 21:39Speaker 3: good bit, not super into Shed. I don't really think
- 21:43Speaker 3: we need to go there. The value is at center,
- 21:45Speaker 3: so I don't have a ton of interest there. Yeah,
- 21:48Speaker 3: I think that covers it for Toronto and then Washington.
- 21:51Speaker 3: I'm not getting some of these guys in my million lineups,
- 21:54Speaker 3: and then probably be just like a sprinkle across my
- 21:57Speaker 3: MM portfolio. But I don't really love anything about this
- 22:00Speaker 3: team right now, they're fully healthy. Pricing is pretty appropriate
- 22:04Speaker 3: in all these guys. Sorrow would be my favorite option,
- 22:06Speaker 3: just because he's shown the best, the most upside. But
- 22:09Speaker 3: even then, I think center is a little bit too
- 22:11Speaker 3: strong to go there.
- 22:12Speaker 1: All right, I had some interest in Sorrow. I was
- 22:14Speaker 1: gonna ask you about it, but you just covered it
- 22:16Speaker 1: off right there. I see a couple Grady Dick questions
- 22:21Speaker 1: in the chat. Is it is it dig season for
- 22:24Speaker 1: the Raptors assuming Scottie Barnes is out? Uh?
- 22:28Speaker 2: Maybe if he's starting. I think that.
- 22:29Speaker 3: I don't know what the minutes would look like for
- 22:31Speaker 3: him with Barnes to be out, But yeah, I think
- 22:34Speaker 3: he's been playing a little bit better as of late.
- 22:36Speaker 3: Just the minutes can range a lot for him, So
- 22:39Speaker 3: I don't Yeah, probably not.
- 22:41Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 22:42Speaker 3: I think you would need him starting. I think it's
- 22:44Speaker 3: gonna be battle starting though.
- 22:46Speaker 1: So if so. In the last question on Sandro, like,
- 22:51Speaker 1: would you play him if Scottie Barnes was in? Or
- 22:54Speaker 1: is he? Is he only in play if Scottie Barnes
- 22:55Speaker 1: were to miss.
- 22:56Speaker 3: No, No, he's totally fine even with Barnes in. Thanks
- 23:00Speaker 3: projecting a very strong value.
- 23:02Speaker 1: Yeah, I really like him that and he's only five
- 23:04Speaker 1: k over on fan Duel. Someone's asking about Powlo or
- 23:10Speaker 1: JB on fandel. I don't know who JB is unless
- 23:12Speaker 1: it's Jalen Brown. We're about to get there next, so
- 23:15Speaker 1: we'll go to the next game. We got the Celtics.
- 23:19Speaker 1: We got the Celtics taking on the Pacers. Celtics big
- 23:21Speaker 1: time Favoriteier Pacers missing a palletha of players eight and
- 23:27Speaker 1: a half point spread one hundred and fifteen point total
- 23:30Speaker 1: for the C's two hundred and twenty one. One of
- 23:33Speaker 1: the lower total games. Had some good matchups last year,
- 23:36Speaker 1: but these aren't the same teams as they were last year.
- 23:39Speaker 1: My boy Derek White, thanks to Rio, treated me well
- 23:43Speaker 1: last Friday night. Rio so appreciate that. Hopefully they treated
- 23:46Speaker 1: some of you well out there last night too. Hit
- 23:47Speaker 1: I think nine or ten threes in that contest. We
- 23:50Speaker 1: talked to me a little bit about this game. Celtics
- 23:52Speaker 1: at the Pacers.
- 23:54Speaker 3: Uh yeah, we got a whole moment of silence for
- 23:57Speaker 3: your boy Gary Bird no longer with the with the
- 24:00Speaker 3: Pacers got cut. I believe this morning him and James
- 24:03Speaker 3: Wiseman no longer with the team, and they did sign
- 24:06Speaker 3: former Jazz legend legend Micah Potter. Uh so we'll see
- 24:11Speaker 3: what what that looks like. I'm not sure he's how
- 24:13Speaker 3: much he's gonna play if at all, well they.
- 24:15Speaker 1: Lose then if they if they cut my boy, I
- 24:17Speaker 1: thought they just signed him to like a real contract
- 24:19Speaker 1: like a week ago. Now they're cutting him.
- 24:21Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't I don't really know how all that
- 24:23Speaker 3: all that stuff works. But yeah, no longer with the team.
- 24:26Speaker 3: I'm sure somebody will pick him up. That's in need
- 24:28Speaker 3: of a.
- 24:30Speaker 2: Very poor defender and an okay three point shooter.
- 24:32Speaker 1: If anybody wants to win a championship, they know where
- 24:35Speaker 1: to go.
- 24:37Speaker 3: But yeah, this game not very appealing. The Pacers, while
- 24:41Speaker 3: they do have a ton of guys out, this is
- 24:44Speaker 3: kind of as healthy as they've been in a long time.
- 24:46Speaker 3: They got Ethan Thompson in there, Quentin Jackson's been injured
- 24:49Speaker 3: for a while and he's been in the lineup as well.
- 24:52Speaker 3: Obviously still missing Nie Smith and toppend Ben Sheppard, but
- 24:56Speaker 3: otherwise they're pretty healthy.
- 24:58Speaker 2: And the match is not that great. Boston's gonna be
- 25:01Speaker 2: able to slow things down.
- 25:02Speaker 3: They've been playing really good on both ends of the cord,
- 25:04Speaker 3: kind of over exceeding expectations for them on the season,
- 25:07Speaker 3: one of the better teams in the in the East,
- 25:11Speaker 3: and we saw Jalen Brown did get defended by Andrew
- 25:13Speaker 3: Nemhard in the last matchup, didn't really matter too much.
- 25:16Speaker 3: Still put up thirty one points in that game, fifty
- 25:17Speaker 3: one DK points. He's been very consistent this month. I
- 25:21Speaker 3: think that he's more of a cash game play than
- 25:23Speaker 3: a GPP play. So for the guy that was asking
- 25:26Speaker 3: about him versus Polo, I do prefer Polow on FanDuel.
- 25:31Speaker 3: But yeah, he's averaging fifty one and a half DK
- 25:33Speaker 3: points this month so been very very consistent. Matchup is fine,
- 25:37Speaker 3: you're gonna want to play guys against pacers that attack
- 25:39Speaker 3: the basket. He's been driving the ball a ton to
- 25:41Speaker 3: the rim, so he's the guy that you want. And
- 25:44Speaker 3: then for that reason to kind of out on Derek
- 25:46Speaker 3: White and Pritchard and basically everybody else on Boston.
- 25:49Speaker 2: They are running a pretty deep rotation right now. I
- 25:51Speaker 2: think they've been.
- 25:53Speaker 3: There's like some talk about them just like the season
- 25:55Speaker 3: being along in them getting away from playing these guys
- 25:57Speaker 3: so many minutes. So you The minutes are all over
- 25:59Speaker 3: the play for everybody basically not named Jaylen Brown, Derek
- 26:03Speaker 3: Uie or Paynton Richard. Jordan Wallace was playing great for
- 26:06Speaker 3: a while and then he saw his minutes get cut.
- 26:09Speaker 3: Simon's minutes are all over the place. Kida has been pretty consistent,
- 26:12Speaker 3: but they are getting Luca Garzan there for some backup
- 26:14Speaker 3: center minutes. I don't really think that you need more
- 26:16Speaker 3: than one Boston guy tonight, and the indie stuff kind
- 26:19Speaker 3: of the same thing. I don't really love the spot.
- 26:21Speaker 3: I think them hard is fine at six point one K,
- 26:24Speaker 3: but pretty easy to get away from these guys in general.
- 26:27Speaker 3: I think you're comparing them to some of the Miami
- 26:30Speaker 3: stuff and other guys in later games with much higher
- 26:33Speaker 3: game totals.
- 26:34Speaker 2: I would probably just be a max one of this
- 26:35Speaker 2: game overall.
- 26:39Speaker 1: Yeah, same, this game doesn't seem very appealing fandels scoring.
- 26:43Speaker 1: I don't know how familiar we are with that, But
- 26:45Speaker 1: Dia Bade versus Sandro, we haven't basically pegged for the
- 26:49Speaker 1: same amount. I'm going Sandro. I think you may differ,
- 26:53Speaker 1: but I like Sandro in this matchup. I think he
- 26:54Speaker 1: does really good, especially against this Wizard's team.
- 27:00Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I have there's probably one guy I
- 27:03Speaker 3: prefer over both those guys. We haven't talked to him yet,
- 27:05Speaker 3: but between those two, I'll probably go Musa.
- 27:09Speaker 2: I think I'll go Dbots.
- 27:10Speaker 3: I think that the minutes are very secure for him,
- 27:12Speaker 3: a little more stocks upside as well.
- 27:15Speaker 1: Didn't hear you mentioned TJ McConnell's. I'm assuming you don't
- 27:17Speaker 1: have any interest in them. And who are those folks
- 27:20Speaker 1: he's got in that picture? Is that? Is that an
- 27:25Speaker 1: old American gladiator I see in there? I don't know, maybe, so, yeah,
- 27:30Speaker 1: you just.
- 27:30Speaker 2: Tell us, Dave, I don't know. That looks like some
- 27:32Speaker 2: WWE stuff.
- 27:34Speaker 1: Yeah, but any McConnell love for.
- 27:37Speaker 3: You, Uh No, not really. Think he's kind of always
- 27:40Speaker 3: in play. There's nothing really that stands out about him
- 27:44Speaker 3: in general tonight. I think that the value you're looking
- 27:47Speaker 3: to on the state comes at center.
- 27:48Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, moving on to the next game. Got
- 27:51Speaker 1: another one that's uh probably I would call it number two. Yeah,
- 27:56Speaker 1: as far as the most popular gamesnight got the seventy
- 27:59Speaker 1: six ers, the bulls Edge, Combe, Barlow, and Embiid. We're
- 28:04Speaker 1: all at shoot around this morning, so they are all
- 28:06Speaker 1: slated to play unless something's changed, Rio, but you got
- 28:10Speaker 1: tyres Maxi at nine to eight, got Josh Giddy at
- 28:13Speaker 1: nine to four. Should be an up and down contest.
- 28:15Speaker 1: We know what to do when the Bulls are playing.
- 28:17Speaker 1: It's going to be an up and down game. We
- 28:19Speaker 1: know Tyrese likes to chuck Joell. For the limited amount
- 28:22Speaker 1: of minutes he's in there, he does very well. So
- 28:25Speaker 1: talk to me a little bit about this game. Seventy
- 28:27Speaker 1: six ers at the Bulls two hundred and forty one
- 28:30Speaker 1: and a half point game total. Quentin Grims is slated
- 28:33Speaker 1: to play as well.
- 28:34Speaker 3: Yeah, they'll be getting pretty much everybody back tonight. I'm
- 28:37Speaker 3: not too sure about the Embiid stuff. It's really hard
- 28:41Speaker 3: to pin down of whether he's going to play or not.
- 28:44Speaker 3: This injury management and sickness and all this stuff going on,
- 28:47Speaker 3: So I don't really know what's going on over there
- 28:50Speaker 3: with Embiid. But yeah, second best over under on the
- 28:52Speaker 3: slate tonight. The thing that makes it a little bit
- 28:55Speaker 3: tougher though, is that Philly got all these guys back,
- 28:59Speaker 3: So a lot of the guys that we were looking
- 29:01Speaker 3: to for value, mainly just like Jared McCain and then
- 29:04Speaker 3: like Paul George and Maxi looked pretty good before those
- 29:07Speaker 3: guys got ruled in. Are still in play, but look
- 29:10Speaker 3: a little bit worse. I don't think McCain's much in
- 29:12Speaker 3: play now, but the Chicago is kind of the same thing.
- 29:15Speaker 2: They've been running a deep rotation.
- 29:17Speaker 3: They finally cut out Patrick Williams, but they were running
- 29:20Speaker 3: an eleven man rotation but still running ten guys out there.
- 29:23Speaker 3: So if you can figure out who it's going to be,
- 29:26Speaker 3: then you could get paid off.
- 29:28Speaker 2: It's been giddy for.
- 29:29Speaker 3: The most part as of late, but Vouch has had
- 29:31Speaker 3: a couple of big games. But yeah, this game should
- 29:35Speaker 3: be high scoring. Chicago's still playing really fast this season,
- 29:38Speaker 3: top four and pace this month. Both these teams are
- 29:40Speaker 3: really big transition funnels bowls, still giving up a ton
- 29:43Speaker 3: of points at the rim. They are also allowing the
- 29:46Speaker 3: third most threes per game this month. And then the
- 29:48Speaker 3: Sixers are going to be a team that always allows
- 29:50Speaker 3: a good amount of pick and roll volume, so sets
- 29:53Speaker 3: up well for the guards in Chicago. And Chicago is
- 29:55Speaker 3: first in offense over the last two weeks. Been playing
- 29:58Speaker 3: in some really high scoring game environment and I think
- 30:01Speaker 3: Maxi's in a good spot regardless, would obviously be a
- 30:04Speaker 3: little bit better with Embiid out, which actually kind of surprising.
- 30:08Speaker 3: He averages more fantasy points with Embiid in the season,
- 30:11Speaker 3: but a lot of that was kind of due to
- 30:12Speaker 3: him having like some crazy games beginning of the season,
- 30:15Speaker 3: sixty plus points in like the first five or six
- 30:18Speaker 3: games or so. He has played more games without Himbid
- 30:21Speaker 3: the season, so the numbers are askewed that way a
- 30:23Speaker 3: little bit, but really good spot for Maxi. Like I said,
- 30:26Speaker 3: with the Bulls just giving up a ton of fantasy
- 30:29Speaker 3: points and playing some high scoring game environments. They're allowing
- 30:32Speaker 3: the six most fantasy points to point guards over the
- 30:34Speaker 3: last seven games. Maxi went for sixty two against them
- 30:37Speaker 3: earlier this season, So like him a little bit point guard,
- 30:40Speaker 3: very strong. I don't prefer him over a couple of
- 30:42Speaker 3: these other guys. I even might prefer Giddy over him,
- 30:45Speaker 3: and I definitely prefer Trey, but definitely like him in
- 30:48Speaker 3: this game environment. And then if Embid were to be in,
- 30:51Speaker 3: I would imagine he's close to where he has been
- 30:53Speaker 3: over the last few games, around like thirty thirty one minutes,
- 30:56Speaker 3: which would be enough for him to hit value. But
- 31:00Speaker 3: you are playing him over Diabat and overwere who just
- 31:04Speaker 3: project much better from a points per dollars standpoint, So
- 31:08Speaker 3: I probably don't.
- 31:10Speaker 2: I probably don't get to too much of him Beid.
- 31:11Speaker 3: I think that I'm gonna be prioritizing those two guys
- 31:14Speaker 3: over him, But it is a really good matchup for him,
- 31:16Speaker 3: So if he does play in consideration, that's probably it.
- 31:20Speaker 2: I think you could play Paul George.
- 31:21Speaker 3: He's been playing fine, but he does kind of lose
- 31:25Speaker 3: a lot of usage when embiiding MAXI are both healthy,
- 31:27Speaker 3: so I think you would need MB to be out
- 31:29Speaker 3: to get to him. And then I don't think I
- 31:32Speaker 3: want to go to Edgecombe coming off of an illness
- 31:35Speaker 3: at six point six k. On the Chicago side, it
- 31:38Speaker 3: is Giddy as the main guy I'm prioritizing. He had
- 31:41Speaker 3: a huge game against Philly earlier this season, triple double,
- 31:44Speaker 3: seventy one DK points, really good matchup for guards with
- 31:47Speaker 3: the pick and roll defense being below average for the Sixers,
- 31:51Speaker 3: and I think that if there was one guy that's
- 31:53Speaker 3: going to see an uptick in minutes, it would be him.
- 31:55Speaker 3: He's been kind of held around like the thirty three
- 31:57Speaker 3: minute mark in most games, but he did get thirty
- 32:00Speaker 3: six last games. I think that they probably want him
- 32:03Speaker 3: to be around like thirty four to thirty six, more
- 32:05Speaker 3: so than thirty three because he's their best player and
- 32:08Speaker 3: he's gonna be low owned. He does have triple double
- 32:10Speaker 3: upside and slate winning ceilings, so I do like Giddy
- 32:14Speaker 3: a bit, but do prefer some of those other guards
- 32:16Speaker 3: that I mentioned. I think Vouch is okay, but again,
- 32:20Speaker 3: really strong center spot. He's been playing more minutes. I
- 32:22Speaker 3: think that he does match up better against EMBII than
- 32:25Speaker 3: Zach Collins does, so he's probably playing thirty plus tonight,
- 32:28Speaker 3: which makes him play and then Kobe White eventually is
- 32:31Speaker 3: going to start off to play more minutes.
- 32:32Speaker 2: It's just been that tough go.
- 32:33Speaker 3: I don't think that he's gonna be a guy that
- 32:35Speaker 3: you prioritize when he's being held in the low thirties.
- 32:38Speaker 3: So really just Giddy and then if you can get
- 32:41Speaker 3: Matas right, then you could get paid off because he
- 32:44Speaker 3: does have really big upside. A game where his skill
- 32:48Speaker 3: set should could shine with the sixers allowing a lot
- 32:51Speaker 3: of transition points, but even the close game where he
- 32:54Speaker 3: shot six right from the field was hyper efficient scoring
- 32:58Speaker 3: the ball only played eighteen minutes against Atlanta, So it's
- 33:01Speaker 3: really really tough. He's his minutes are being taken from
- 33:05Speaker 3: like Io and Kevin Herder. So I don't think you're
- 33:08Speaker 3: considering those guys, but definitely marks one of those secondary pieces.
- 33:13Speaker 1: Yeah, good stuff there. Yeah, I don't think Billy the
- 33:16Speaker 1: kid likes uh likes Bizzellous too much. He's always yanking
- 33:19Speaker 1: him out. Hey, and this was this was before your time, Rio,
- 33:22Speaker 1: but here comes the acts, here comes the smash. We
- 33:26Speaker 1: call them demolish and oh yeah, that's good stuff. Day,
- 33:29Speaker 1: appreciate you putting that in there. And New Ones. I
- 33:31Speaker 1: don't know where you got this, man, that was last week.
- 33:33Speaker 1: I don't know where this came. I didn't say that,
- 33:35Speaker 1: at least I don't think I did. And then my guy,
- 33:37Speaker 1: big Anthony, what's going on? Answered? Nice to see you
- 33:39Speaker 1: in here. That's five games. We got two games left.
- 33:43Speaker 1: Hit that like, hit that subscribe button. If you don't,
- 33:45Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep singing some more. Let's get him out
- 33:47Speaker 1: of here. Now we know what New Ones came for.
- 33:50Speaker 1: We got the Bucks, got Magic Porter Junior taking on
- 33:53Speaker 1: the Grizzlies. John Morant is questionable, So that's some news there.
- 33:57Speaker 1: I think I saw Cedric Coward as questionable as well
- 34:00Speaker 1: Santi Aldama coming off what a thirty seven real life
- 34:04Speaker 1: point game. Rio, but still know Yannis, still know Edie,
- 34:08Speaker 1: But talk to me a little bit about this game.
- 34:10Speaker 1: Bucks at the Grizzlies two and twenty seven and a
- 34:13Speaker 1: half point total.
- 34:15Speaker 3: Yeah, not the highest game total, but I definitely think
- 34:17Speaker 3: it has some fantasy appeal. The Bucks are running a
- 34:20Speaker 3: very tight rotation and now with Gary Trent Junior out,
- 34:23Speaker 3: the minutes could consolidate a bit more and then the
- 34:25Speaker 3: Grizzlies could also be thin. They're already pretty thin in
- 34:28Speaker 3: the front court, but if Jaw and Cedric Coward, two
- 34:31Speaker 3: guys listening questionable, are out, then we're gonna see Cam
- 34:34Speaker 3: Spencer and probably Gigi Jackson again in the starting lineup,
- 34:37Speaker 3: and both those guys would be in consideration on the slate.
- 34:42Speaker 3: The Grizzlies are continuing to be a team that gives
- 34:44Speaker 3: up a lot of volume to guards and on ball guys,
- 34:47Speaker 3: so I do think that there's a ton of upside
- 34:50Speaker 3: for KPJ, and he's had an elite role with with
- 34:54Speaker 3: Giannis al ways been the starting lineup. But we did
- 34:58Speaker 3: see a little bit of that kind of shift to
- 35:00Speaker 3: Ryan Rawlins last game, who had a really strong outing,
- 35:03Speaker 3: and I think that there's a chance that he starts tonight.
- 35:06Speaker 3: I want to wait a little bit on that one,
- 35:08Speaker 3: because I do think that he's a very very good option.
- 35:11Speaker 3: KPJ had seven point nine minutes a touchdoime last game,
- 35:13Speaker 3: so really strong role. But Ryan Rawlands six point one
- 35:16Speaker 3: minutes and he got to thirty three minutes last game.
- 35:19Speaker 3: I do think that there's a chance that he starts
- 35:20Speaker 3: tonight and is playing like thirty three thirty four minutes,
- 35:23Speaker 3: which would make him a very good option. And now
- 35:27Speaker 3: that the prices are so far away from each other
- 35:29Speaker 3: to twenty one hundred separates KPJ and Ryan Rawins, I
- 35:32Speaker 3: do lean Ryan Rawns here with the shooting guard eligibility,
- 35:36Speaker 3: so I'm that's a guy that I'm actually really liking tonight.
- 35:39Speaker 3: But I with all that said, I still think that
- 35:41Speaker 3: KPJ is a guy that you should be considering because
- 35:43Speaker 3: he's had really really strong numbers with with Giannis off
- 35:46Speaker 3: the court the season while he's been starting, and then
- 35:50Speaker 3: for the other guys like Bobby Portas should continues to start,
- 35:53Speaker 3: he's looking like one of the chock he plays in
- 35:54Speaker 3: the slate, but I think for a good reason, five
- 35:56Speaker 3: point nine k playing anywhere from like thirty two to
- 36:00Speaker 3: minutes in his last three games. I think that he's
- 36:02Speaker 3: a fairly easy click tonight because we know that he
- 36:04Speaker 3: does have a ton of upside, And then Kuzma and
- 36:07Speaker 3: Myles Turner at their price Seggs should be in consideration.
- 36:11Speaker 3: I think that it would hurt Kuzma a good bit
- 36:13Speaker 3: if Ryan Rowlands were in there, because that's another higher
- 36:16Speaker 3: usage guy that's taking away touches from him.
- 36:18Speaker 2: And then the upside for Miles.
- 36:19Speaker 3: Turner is just that he's so cheap and if he
- 36:21Speaker 3: can make his shots from three, it is a really
- 36:23Speaker 3: good spot for three point shooters, So he does have
- 36:26Speaker 3: a little bit of upside there. Say, I think all
- 36:28Speaker 3: these all those five guys are high in high consideration
- 36:31Speaker 3: for me tonight, But I really do like Ryan Rawlins
- 36:34Speaker 3: a good bit here. Memphis would be kind of close
- 36:37Speaker 3: to a full X out if if Jaw and Coward
- 36:40Speaker 3: were in, But if those guys were out, then I
- 36:42Speaker 3: think you could go right back to Santi Cam Spencer
- 36:45Speaker 3: would be okay. I don't think he'd be great at
- 36:48Speaker 3: six point six K. But I do think that Gigi
- 36:49Speaker 3: Jackson at a really weak position, a small forward power forward.
- 36:55Speaker 3: I would play them at small forward because I think
- 36:56Speaker 3: that you're probably playing Portus or Sancho at power forward,
- 36:59Speaker 3: but he would be a really strong option at four
- 37:02Speaker 3: K played a good amount of minutes last time. I
- 37:04Speaker 3: think what thirty I think I can't see his game, love,
- 37:07Speaker 3: but I think you played thirty plus and was one
- 37:09Speaker 3: rebound shot of a double double. So yeah, that's kind
- 37:12Speaker 3: of what I'm thinking in this game. Don't really love Memphis,
- 37:15Speaker 3: but I do think there are some good spots on
- 37:16Speaker 3: Milwaukee to attack.
- 37:18Speaker 1: They played thirty minutes last game. Gigi did, like you said,
- 37:23Speaker 1: one shot of the double double. Coach, I saw your question.
- 37:29Speaker 1: He said, Trey over Giney tonight and then we got
- 37:36Speaker 1: one game left. I'll get you to do it after
- 37:39Speaker 1: this next game. Just trying to read these How does
- 37:43Speaker 1: Memphis d stack up against Portis? I think you're fine
- 37:47Speaker 1: with still playing Portos and there's no They're not very formidable,
- 37:50Speaker 1: especially with no D.
- 37:52Speaker 2: Yeah, it's worth knowing.
- 37:53Speaker 3: They were playing really good defense over the last few weeks,
- 37:56Speaker 3: but a lot of that was because they had Edie
- 37:58Speaker 3: in there, and then with him out, They've given up
- 38:01Speaker 3: one hundred and twenty eight, one hundred nineteen, and one
- 38:03Speaker 3: hundred and thirty points over their last three games. The
- 38:05Speaker 3: one hundred and twenty eight and one thirty were against
- 38:07Speaker 3: the Jazz and the Wizards. So, if anything, I think
- 38:10Speaker 3: that the Milwaukee offense is in a much better spot
- 38:14Speaker 3: than the numbers show. I think that this game could
- 38:17Speaker 3: play to be over and.
- 38:19Speaker 1: Then and then are you doing anything like this like
- 38:22Speaker 1: backloading the lineups to wait on I'm assuming the jaw
- 38:25Speaker 1: John News to see who's starting, or are you are
- 38:28Speaker 1: you building teams as he's in or out?
- 38:31Speaker 3: You could, I don't necessarily know if you're getting paid
- 38:34Speaker 3: off in like such a big way that it becomes
- 38:37Speaker 3: a spot that's unavoidable because the spend ups like Jaron
- 38:41Speaker 3: and Santi are now six point nine and seven point
- 38:43Speaker 3: nine k, so you really need them to outscore the
- 38:47Speaker 3: Miami and Atlanta game, which feels unlikely, and even the
- 38:50Speaker 3: Philly and Chicago game, which is probably a little bit
- 38:53Speaker 3: more likely. But and then, yeah, I don't know, you'd
- 38:57Speaker 3: have to do it intention and there are outs because
- 39:01Speaker 3: Phoenix does have a few guys that are solid values
- 39:04Speaker 3: with Royce O'Neil and Jordan Goodwin. So I would just
- 39:07Speaker 3: be there's really only one game that you can pivot
- 39:10Speaker 3: off of, so it kind of makes a little bit tougher.
- 39:12Speaker 3: I don't know if I would really be doing that
- 39:14Speaker 3: in a large set of my portfolio.
- 39:18Speaker 1: And you said you had a center that you liked
- 39:19Speaker 1: better than Moss and Sandra. Have you gotten to him yet?
- 39:21Speaker 1: Are seeing this next game?
- 39:23Speaker 2: Oh? You know, damn Will, I wasn't talking about Miles Turner.
- 39:27Speaker 1: All right, good, that's.
- 39:28Speaker 2: Giving the Turner household name of disgrace.
- 39:33Speaker 1: There we go. We got one game left. We got
- 39:35Speaker 1: Rio's team, the Phoenix Suns taking on Skinny Zion and Crew.
- 39:41Speaker 1: Even though Zion is not well. It looks like Zion
- 39:44Speaker 1: is going to play in this one, but as it
- 39:45Speaker 1: come off the bench anyway for us, the Suns the
- 39:51Speaker 1: perpetual villain, Dylan Brooks. You got Devin Booker. You got
- 39:55Speaker 1: Colin Gillespie's been bawlin' pretty hot total and a half
- 40:00Speaker 1: similar to couple of thems that we've seen, but talked
- 40:01Speaker 1: to me about this game. You got the Suns at
- 40:04Speaker 1: the Pelicans and the rookie Phenom, Derek Queen.
- 40:12Speaker 3: Sorry, uh, I was just drinking this. I don't even
- 40:16Speaker 3: know what this like little health drink was, and there's
- 40:18Speaker 3: like some weird shit that just came out of it.
- 40:19Speaker 1: So well that is where I thought I lost you.
- 40:22Speaker 1: Will you good to go?
- 40:23Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm good to go.
- 40:23Speaker 3: I just had to spit out my drink, all right,
- 40:27Speaker 3: that was really weird. Yeah, so this game definitely, So
- 40:33Speaker 3: I think this one is either tied for the second
- 40:35Speaker 3: highest or has the highest over under on the slate.
- 40:38Speaker 2: I'm not sure what.
- 40:38Speaker 1: If you yes, second highst the Bulls and or the
- 40:41Speaker 1: Hawks and the Heat have a have it beat by
- 40:43Speaker 1: like seven or eight points.
- 40:45Speaker 2: Okay, So yeah, definitely a good game to attack.
- 40:48Speaker 3: And the first thing that sends out to me is
- 40:49Speaker 3: the price tags on Devin Booker and Mark Williams. New
- 40:52Speaker 3: Orleans was actually playing some pretty good defense this month,
- 40:54Speaker 3: but kind of fallen back a little bit after giving
- 40:56Speaker 3: up one forty one to the Calves and now going
- 40:59Speaker 3: to be without her Jones once again to make their
- 41:01Speaker 3: on ball defense much much worse. They're giving up the
- 41:04Speaker 3: most of room points this month and are one of
- 41:06Speaker 3: the worst three point defense in the league. Teams are
- 41:09Speaker 3: putting up forty three percent of their shots from three
- 41:11Speaker 3: point range, which is the most in the NBA, so
- 41:15Speaker 3: really good spot for some of his three point shooters
- 41:16Speaker 3: if you want to attack some of the overs. I
- 41:18Speaker 3: think that depending on what the line is for Dylan
- 41:21Speaker 3: Brooks in Congoleespie, I think those are two guys I
- 41:23Speaker 3: would look to. And Phoenix doesn't really have a ton
- 41:27Speaker 3: of holes defensively. They are the second worst rebounding team
- 41:30Speaker 3: this month, but basically middle of the pack everywhere else defensively,
- 41:35Speaker 3: So I think that the appeal from this game does
- 41:38Speaker 3: come from the Phoenix side. But I would say that
- 41:42Speaker 3: with Jordan Poole in.
- 41:44Speaker 2: It does take.
- 41:45Speaker 3: Away some of like pretty much all the options you're
- 41:46Speaker 3: considering on the New Orleans side, but I think it
- 41:48Speaker 3: makes them a little bit more competitive, So I think,
- 41:51Speaker 3: if anything, that kind of improves the game environment as
- 41:53Speaker 3: a whole. But Devin Booker is one of the guys
- 41:56Speaker 3: I'm looking to with that point guard shooting guard eligibility.
- 41:59Speaker 2: He h.
- 42:01Speaker 3: He's had a really strong role all season long, but
- 42:03Speaker 3: when he's since he's come back from injury, leading the
- 42:05Speaker 3: team with u sgerated thirty four percent assist percentage four
- 42:09Speaker 3: point four minutes a touch time, so kind of splitting
- 42:12Speaker 3: with Colin Gillespie, but mixing and some off ball scoring
- 42:14Speaker 3: as well. I think with Herb Jones out, it's a
- 42:17Speaker 3: really really good spot for Devin Booker. I think he's
- 42:19Speaker 3: got some really good numbers against Herb Jones, even like
- 42:22Speaker 3: he might have had fifty against him a few times
- 42:24Speaker 3: last year of the last two years. But they're going
- 42:26Speaker 3: to be throwing guys like maybe it's like Sidik Bay
- 42:29Speaker 3: on him, maybe a.
- 42:31Speaker 2: Little bit Trey Murphy.
- 42:33Speaker 3: Either way, I think it's a really really strong spot
- 42:35Speaker 3: for Devin Booker coming off of a few really good
- 42:37Speaker 3: games where he wasn't really pushed that much in the
- 42:39Speaker 3: blowout win against the Lakers, and like I said, with
- 42:42Speaker 3: Gillespian Brooks, good good spot to attack the off ball scores.
- 42:46Speaker 3: With Gillispie handling some duties with Dylan brook or sorry,
- 42:51Speaker 3: Devin Booker in the first gun in the ball handling duties,
- 42:53Speaker 3: his purple stats are a little bit safer, so I
- 42:56Speaker 3: like him a little bit more to to Dylan Brooks,
- 42:58Speaker 3: but Brooks has still had a really strong role the season,
- 43:01Speaker 3: second on the team in the usage since Devin book
- 43:03Speaker 3: has returned to the lineup, but yeah, Mark Williams was
- 43:06Speaker 3: the guy that was talking about that I like at
- 43:09Speaker 3: center at five point four K. He played really well
- 43:12Speaker 3: against the Lakers a few nights ago eighteen points, nineteen
- 43:16Speaker 3: rebounds in just twenty one minutes. But the Pelicans are
- 43:18Speaker 3: dead last in room defense this month, as well as
- 43:21Speaker 3: being a bottom six rebounding team. Their bottom four and
- 43:24Speaker 3: DVP versus centers on the season should have a huge
- 43:26Speaker 3: size advantage over Derek Queen. So I think that he's
- 43:29Speaker 3: got some really really strong upside tonight and it's not
- 43:31Speaker 3: getting a ton of ownership, and it could come down
- 43:35Speaker 3: a little bit depending on what happens with where Diabatti.
- 43:38Speaker 3: I think you will have a good idea of what
- 43:40Speaker 3: Mark Williams will be in your tournaments. So I'll probably
- 43:43Speaker 3: set aside one to two of my million rosters for
- 43:47Speaker 3: Mark Williams, and I just got to figure out who
- 43:49Speaker 3: it's going to come from. If it's going to be
- 43:52Speaker 3: Where or Diabotti. I maybe I'll run run a combo
- 43:55Speaker 3: with each of them, and then Jordan Goodwin Royce solid
- 44:00Speaker 3: value play is four point eight four point four K.
- 44:02Speaker 3: I think they're both just fine, probably like Royce a
- 44:05Speaker 3: little bit more because i'mall forward is pretty weak tonight.
- 44:09Speaker 3: And then yet, like I said, I don't really think
- 44:10Speaker 3: I'm considering much on the New Orleans stuff.
- 44:14Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, good stuff there, Mark Williams. It is. So
- 44:17Speaker 1: there's a lot of value at the I'll call the
- 44:19Speaker 1: power forward slash center position. That's all seven games. Hey,
- 44:24Speaker 1: we're right at the forty five minute marker, and I
- 44:26Speaker 1: see that, Sean answer the question, know us idd, But yeah,
- 44:29Speaker 1: absolutely a lot of the stuff pertains to both sites.
- 44:32Speaker 1: But we give out a fan duel cash Core FanDuel
- 44:34Speaker 1: GPP every night. That's for NBA, NFL, MLB, anything you got.
- 44:39Speaker 1: Head on over there now you can try us out
- 44:40Speaker 1: five days for nineteen dollars. Just into the promo code
- 44:44Speaker 1: shit nineteen that you see there at the top of
- 44:46Speaker 1: your screen. All right, rio, Hey, the people I've waited
- 44:49Speaker 1: forty five minutes, you've paid them off the last two fridays,
- 44:52Speaker 1: give us the top bet of the night.
- 44:55Speaker 3: So I didn't really come prepared for this one. So
- 44:57Speaker 3: if you want to stall for a little bit, I mean,
- 44:59Speaker 3: I need to see what Dylan Brooks or Gillespie's three
- 45:02Speaker 3: point line because that would probably be the one I'm
- 45:05Speaker 3: looking too. But I didn't did not come prepared tonight.
- 45:08Speaker 3: I know that we've had some success over the last
- 45:11Speaker 3: few weeks, but yeah, I'm not going to force it,
- 45:13Speaker 3: so don't I don't have one, have one ready?
- 45:16Speaker 1: Yeah, that's all right. Had we got three hundred people
- 45:18Speaker 1: came just for the bet of the night, but we
- 45:19Speaker 1: certainly will. Yeah, we got fan duel course, we got
- 45:22Speaker 1: DK Corps cash cores for both sites as well. We
- 45:26Speaker 1: got Rio in the chat I feel like twenty four
- 45:28Speaker 1: to seven and a lot of these members in here

- 45:50Speaker 1: his boy, Miles Turner, and there was one more I
- 45:53Speaker 1: wanted to mention. Who was it? Oh it was a
- 45:56Speaker 1: Moosa Dia Bate. So yeah, those are those the the
- 46:00Speaker 1: Power Forward Center eligibility players got the heat Hawks should
- 46:04Speaker 1: be a good game. Rio. Would you find anything that
- 46:07Speaker 1: the people can wager on tonight?
- 46:10Speaker 3: I did not, but I can give a play since
- 46:14Speaker 3: I don't have a bed for you guys, and I could.
- 46:16Speaker 3: We got a couple hours in between now in whats
- 46:19Speaker 3: late locks and I could drop something in the discord
- 46:21Speaker 3: for the members if anything sticks out.
- 46:23Speaker 2: But yeah, I think that talked about him a lot.
- 46:27Speaker 3: But yeah, I feel like Trery Young is in a
- 46:28Speaker 3: really really good spot tonight at his price tag, in
- 46:31Speaker 3: the best game environment on the slate. I don't see
- 46:34Speaker 3: how he's so low owned after a few strong outings.
- 46:37Speaker 3: Don't really want to be like a box score watcher,
- 46:38Speaker 3: but I think that the matchup actually does set up
- 46:40Speaker 3: decently well for him starting to shoot the ball well,
- 46:43Speaker 3: and it sounded like he was ready to play full
- 46:45Speaker 3: minutes right off the bat, coming off.
- 46:49Speaker 2: Of the injury.
- 46:49Speaker 3: He's been out for a really long time and kind
- 46:51Speaker 3: of got ramped up pretty quickly. So I him go
- 46:53Speaker 3: from twenty to twenty six at thirty one. So if anything,
- 46:57Speaker 3: if we're looking at trends, he's probably gonna be at
- 46:59Speaker 3: like thirty six. I say that jokingly, but he's I
- 47:01Speaker 3: do think that he's closer to full tonight. So I
- 47:03Speaker 3: like I like Trey a good bit.
- 47:05Speaker 1: Trey Young Bet one of the best spin up options.
- 47:08Speaker 1: I don't wouldn't go him full spin up option, but
- 47:10Speaker 1: eighty eight hundred eighty four hundred, great price on fandle.
- 47:12Speaker 1: What about what about let's go let's go sub six k?
- 47:16Speaker 1: Any any anything sub six k that stands out to you?
- 47:21Speaker 3: Is there an ownership threshold that I have to hit?
- 47:23Speaker 3: Is it just a favorite option down there?
- 47:25Speaker 1: Let's just go favorite option, Let's go sub eighty percent ownership.
- 47:29Speaker 2: Sub eighty.
- 47:33Speaker 1: I was leaving it. I was leaving it open ended
- 47:35Speaker 1: for you, so you can eat you want to that.
- 47:38Speaker 2: Yeah, loves a very open ended Yeah.
- 47:41Speaker 3: I kind of think Mark Williams is a guy I
- 47:44Speaker 3: like a lot tonight. I just I think that his
- 47:46Speaker 3: ownership could get squeezed a bit depending on what happens
- 47:49Speaker 3: with with where and UH and dia Bote. You should
- 47:55Speaker 3: have some you just have a really good idea of
- 47:57Speaker 3: what ownership is going to look like on Mark Williams.
- 47:59Speaker 2: And I really really liked the match up for him.
- 48:01Speaker 1: Yeah, excellent call there, Yeah, this is uh. This was
- 48:05Speaker 1: the matchup that Grayson hit ten threes a couple of
- 48:07Speaker 1: weeks ago. So yeah, so Dave appreciate you tuning in.

- 48:18Speaker 1: he's gonna be a million dollars richer. If not him,
