  Speaker 1: All systems going clear the lift on What is going on?
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: Shipping Nation YouTube station. We're back with another edition of
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: the NBA Show. It's your Boy Ham. It's Friday night,
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: November fourteenth. I got my guy, Hebrew Cheetah with me today.
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: We got about fifty members in here already listening. I
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: see my guy from last night. I see Scooter McGavin
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: taking home ten k in the NBA Showdown streets. We
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: got a nice little announcement for that after that. Thanks
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: to our guy Beg little neck, little neck crushing it
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: over here. He does the Showdown content for us every night.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: And hey, Scooter Solo shipped that poppy last night to
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: continue our hot streak on this NBA season. That's enough
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: about me, though, Rio. I'll bring you in right away.
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: What's going on, man, how's your week? Ben? What's going on?
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: We's been really good. It's been a very good week
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: for all the members. Obviously, Scooter kind of you know,
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: hit it in a big way last night, was huge
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: for if everybody. It was a pretty crazy just way
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: that it happened, because he was in first by like
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: a solid four or five points, and then after the
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: slate ended, they started to take away stats from Jordan Goodwin.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: He ended he was at like thirty six and finished
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: with like thirty. I think they just kept taking away
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: stats from until he was kind of sweating and now
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: we're all there waiting to see what happened. I don't
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: think that they ended up getting that figured out until
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: like midnight, but he ended up coming away with a shipper,
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: so all very very happy for him.
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: But yeah, it's been a really really good week for
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: the members.
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: I talked about it on Tuesday with Title Town that
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: you know, at this point of the season is starting
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: to get a lot more actionable data and we're starting
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: to really see what matchups and areas of weaknesses that
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: these defense have are actually true. And I think that's
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: kind of our strength at Ship and Nation is kind
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: of pinpointing those little weaknesses and defenses and spots to attacks.
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: So it will definitely look to keep that going and
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: finished strong this week with some NBA Cup action as well.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, NBA Cup. I think this is the third straight
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: Friday night that we've we've done the NBA Cup. It's
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: always cool to see that, see the different the cord
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: or whatever, and these games being a little bit more
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: before we going for let's say hello to a couple
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: of people in chat. I got my guy a little

• 3:08
  Speaker 1: as always Minnesota, Holly Hey. I went to Minnesota earlier
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: this week, went to the Vikings game. Vikings did not
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: do well against the Ravens, but that stadium is incredible.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: Went to Runions, got me some wings, went to what
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: was it red Cow, Redfish? Read something up there Minnesota
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: Hall that you recommended, got a burger, got some cheese curds.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: Enjoyed my time up there in Minnesota. It's great time.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: Weather got cold now I'm back in seven degree weather.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: But we got nine NBA games today. We're gonna be
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: breaking down the first eight. No, no Wemby on this slate,
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: little rematch, little Wemby Golden State action that that is
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: not on the main slate, but we'll have you covered
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: over there on the showdown show Jordan new Ones, what's
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: going on? Man Lachlan's in here as well. But anything else?
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: Or do you want to get right into these eight games? Rio?
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: No, let's get right into it. I really like the
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: slate tonight.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, great slate tonight. The first game up, we got
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: the heat. Got a little Daveyon Mitchell talking with some
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: trash about Jalen Brunson being out. So no Jalen Brunton.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: He tweaked his ankle the other day. No hero, no Bam,
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: which you already know that. But we got the heat.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: Going into New York, we should see a Miles mcbrid
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: start at great prices. He's gonna be super popular, pretty hot.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: Total Rio two hundred and forty and a half. Talk
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: to me through this one Miami Heat at the New
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: York Knicks.
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: I talked about a lot with all these Miami slates
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: that it's gonna be a game environment that you're gonna
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: want to get into if they just play so fast
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: like well, above everybody else in the league right now,
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: and it's provided some really great game environments. And even
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: with how good Miami's defense is or can be, at
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: times like that, you're still getting some pretty strong fantasy scores.
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: But then you add on top of that with no Brunson,
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: that kind of makes it a clear spot for you
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: to want to get into the Knicks. But I think
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: that both the ways that these teams play defense could
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: really highlight the offensive matchups for the opposing teams. The
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: Heat can to be a team that you want to
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: attack with off ball scoring. They're allowing the most catch
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: and shoot field goal attempts per game and the seven
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: most threes per game. Knicks are putting up a ton
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: of threes right now, so it's a really good spot
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: for the three point shooters and the off ball scores.
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: And then for Miami, they're giving up they're one of
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: the worst transit or one of the best transition offenses
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: in the league giving up. The Knicks give up a
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: good amount of transition points per game, so it's kind
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: of a clear spot to attack for them. The Miami
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: side is kind of quick for me to break down
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: because I don't really think that I want to get
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: to too much. I would say that Norman Powell is
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: probably in a pretty good spot here, even with McHale
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: Bridge is going to be on him. I just think
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: that the way that he's been driving and getting it
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: done in transition that makes it a pretty good spot
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: for him. But these prices are up there. I guess
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: you could make a case that Davion Mitchell is cheap
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: enough to consider, but I don't. I'm not really too
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: excited about these guys in particular, and just think that
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: they'll bring a solid game environment. I don't think that
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: you really need to go out of your way to
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: play any of these heat because there's some really really
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: strong mid tier plays and value plays unless late tonight.
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: I don't know if I want to lock anything up
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: Miami early on, but I do like these.
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: Knicks a lot.
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: I think the cat is probably the best play in
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: the nine K range tonight. He's averaging He averaged just
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: under forty eight drafting points in fifteen games without Brunston.
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: Last season saw a really big usage rate increase five
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: point two points up to thirty three percent, and this
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: year has been the same with Brunson off the court.
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: Plus four point seven points added to his usage numbers,
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: and his fantasy points per minutes jumped to one point
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: five to eight. So from a role standpoint, he looks
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: like the best option in nine K in the nine
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: K range. And then you add the pace of play
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: in the game environment, with Miami playing at the fastest pace,
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: I think that there's a lot really working Cat's direction tonight,
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: and I really like to attack Kalo ware. He can
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: be good at times, but he can also really struggle
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: against a player archetype like Cats. I kind of think
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: that smash it's a really smash play for Cat at
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: nine point four K, so I like him a good bit.
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: And then Og and Bridges and that we can probably
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: expect them to take on bigger roles with Brunson. OG's
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: been the guy that sees the biggest usage bump and
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: fantasy point for a minute bump with Brunton off the
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: court the season, and he's been the more consistent of
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: the two, so I slightly lean his way, But I
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: think it's pretty hard to argue against mckel Bridges just
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: the way that Miami gives up so much off ball scoring,
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: and I think with this being an NBA Cup game,
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: you could see like thirty eight to forty minutes from
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: those guys, so like them both a good bit here.
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: I do slightly prefer OG though, and then want to
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: see what they do with the starting line. But I
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: think that McBride is probably the most obvious option. But
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: I wouldn't be surprised if they bring in like Josh Hart,
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: or maybe if they do something weird and go Tyler
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: collect at three K, he would definitely be in play.
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: But I think as the stands right now with McBride
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: the projected started, he's a pretty solid option at four
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: point a k, kind of for the same reasons that
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: you would consider playing mckal bridges. He's not gonna really
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: see like a crazy increase in his touch time in
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: ball handling stats, but I do see this being a
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: plus matchup for him as a guy that can score
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: off well. He'll take a ton of catch and shoot
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: three point at ten. So I do like McBride right now,
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: But yeah, really really like Kat tonight.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: So the cover boy Cat sounds like your favorite Cat
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: Bridges and OG. I mean, how many knicks in a
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: tournament do you think is too many knicks?
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: I haven't really thought through that much. I don't think
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: that I want more than two of the cat og
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: and Bridges, but I could see, like if collect or
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: mcbrideer's starting, I don't think it's like two crazy to
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: ask for three of these guys, like from add one
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: of McBride and collect into that grouping of two guys
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: to get there. But I think the two of the
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: main three guys is probably probably enough, and then you
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: could add in one more.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and these ownerships can't be right. It says mckel
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: bridges at one percent and the other guys are at
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: thirty twenty eight thirteen. I would assume that's gonna come
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: up a little bit. But yeah, Nick's looking good. It
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: looks like you have four options tonight, especially if McBride starts.
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: Don't hate that excellent breakdown there on that game. We'll
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: move on to the next game. We got the nets,
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: no Cam Thomas MPJ. Anyone gets the magic Pallo birthday narrative,
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: Hey pulled his hamstring growing whatever it was the other
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: night came out early. No, no birthday narrative from a
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: boy Palo He's gonna miss tonight that that should get.
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: We have Tristan da Silva in the starting lineup for him,
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: But man, these Nets are pretty bad. But any love
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: for any Nets, any love for any of these Magic
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: including Franz Wagner, who would assume would get a bump.
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: I didn't realize it was a groin strain for Polo.
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: He must have been having too much fun on his birthday.
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: But yeah, these Nets, I don't really think I'm gonna
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: get to. It's a really good spot for the Orlando guys,
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: like probably the best spot on the slate if you
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: just add in the matchup stuff. So I'm really really
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: excited about these Orlando guys. But for Brooklyn, like I
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: don't know ak for MPJ, I get at the role
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: and usage and all that stuff has been pretty good,
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: but Magic really take away the three point ball, So
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: I think that there's really not a lot working in
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: this favor. I would if I were to attack this
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: Magic defense, it's with pick and roll heavy scores, but
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: the Nets just don't have anybody that does that. Like
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: They're two highest pick and roll point per game guys
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: are Terrence Man and Igor Demon. I don't really think
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: that I'm looking to get to either of those guys
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: in this big of a slate. So for Brooklyn Max one,
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: I probably get zero tonight, and I'd be totally fine
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: with that. But the Orlando side is really really exciting
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: for me. With Paulo out, that is going to vacate
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: around thirty one percent usage, maybe I think it's a bit less. Actually,
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: twenty eight percent and nineteen and a half percent assists rate
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: is what Paulo leaves behind. So who that goes to
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: a lot of it's going to go to Franz. We've
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: seen pretty big sample size from last season. With Polow
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: off the court, his usage jumps to thirty one point
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: four percent. Both the rebounding and assist numbers lead are
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: in like the fifteen percent range seventeen percent range, So
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: I think he's kind of a sneaky bed. If you're
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: looking for a long shot for a triple double, I
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: think that he could get that in this matchup. But
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: the things that really stand out for me for Franz
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: is that like teams like Brooklyn, teams like Washington who
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: are really bad in transition and really bad protecting the
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: basket is where you want to play Frons. So this
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: is all lines of well for him. Brooklyn is I
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: think bottom two in rim defense. And dead last and
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: transition defense, so there's a lot really really working for
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: Franz to hit in a big way here. I know
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: that it's a pretty big spread, but it's a cup game,
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: so they probably let him out there for thirty five
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: thirty six minutes. I think he could really smash in
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: those minutes. I love the upside for Franz. Bain is
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: a little bit more tricky to break down because a
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: lot of his minutes have overlapped with Polo this season.
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: He only has like fifty minutes with paulow off the court.
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: Obviously sees a really big jump in his assist rates,
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: and then last game did see a big bump to
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: his touch time, so we should expect him to see
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: a pretty big use role increase. But he is a
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: little bit more pick and roll heavy than Nets are
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: taking away pick and roll the best in the league,
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: just so that's gonna be the way that they played
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: defense always under this coach. But Bain has always been
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: a really good transition score, so I think that he's
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: totally fine. I don't think I want more than two
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: of Franz, Baine and Suggs, and that kind of puts
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: me on Suggs. I think that he's got a really
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: good matchup. I think that it's gonna to be MPJ
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: on him, which is always a spot I want to attack.
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: But he has really solid on off numbers with Paulo
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: off the court the season one point one to seven
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: Fantasy points per minute. I think he's gonna be playing
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: close to thirty minuts tonight, a team that could be
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: very turnover prone, I think is a plus for Suggs
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: as well. So I think that he's a probably right there,
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: like neck and neck from just like a DFS play
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: tonight with Bain, but Franz is clearly the one. But
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: I don't I don't think that I want more than
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: two of those guys. And then I don't like the
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: Anthony Blacktrists and De Silva just are very unexciting plays
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: for me tonight. I think there's gonna better value that
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: opens up potentially, or just there might already be better
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: plays that we don't really need to get to them.
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: But I do think that it's a really good spot
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: for the centers. So Wendell Carter Junior and Gogobaitazza at
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: their respective price segs, I think are both in play.
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: Would not play them together. I think Wendel Carter Junior
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: could be a guy that like in that five K
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: range for center gets overlooked with a lot of ownership
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: going to guys like Derek Queen and Andre Drummond. But
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: I think that he does have a sleep slate winning
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: upside in his range of outcomes.
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: I like him.
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: And then if you need to go down to like
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: three point six k for a center, go Good is
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: a guy I would look to because he does have
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: pretty strong per minute upside and he probably plays twenty
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: minutes tonight, maybe a little bit more in a blowout.
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: So I think that this is a really really good
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: spot for Orlando.
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: Good spot for Orlando. You got to go Suggs versus
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: McBride fifty one one hundred versus forty eight hundredth the
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: point guard position. Where are you going there?
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: I do slightly lean Suggs, but I think with McBride
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: having the shooting guard eligibility it makes him a little
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: bit better.
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: And are we not to go back to the Knicks,
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: But I'm going to Are we only playing McBride if
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: he's starting over Kolk No, I.
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: Think you can you can play him regardless because he's
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: going to see minutes, but it would be a lot
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: I'd have a lot more confidence in him seeing like
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: close to thirty minutes to night if he was starting.
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: Awesome, excellent stuff there. Yeah, no nets. Yeah, seventy eight
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: hundred for in PA. It's kind of kind of getting
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: up there. So moving on to the next game, interesting
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: one to talk about. Got the seventy six ers, we
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: know the deal with the NB no MB tonight. Got
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: Andre Dummon double double the other night, which was big,
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: and then you got the Pistons. A lot of question
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: marks around the Pistons. Kate Cunningham coming off a sore
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: shoulder from shoot at forty five times the other night,
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: he missed, Jalen Duran missed. We know Thompson is going
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: to be out again tonight, be Stu missed. Taught me
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: through this one. Weo a bunch of injuries to talk
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: to on the Piston side. Who's in, who's out, and
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: let's break it down.
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so this is one where a lot of value
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: could potentially open up. And it does seem like Kate
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: and Duran and Stuart are all kind of trending down.
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: They had the same starting lineup as as the last
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: game in Starter Jersey had shoot around this morning, haven't
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: really got enough clarity like normally they would. We'd get
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: a notification from Underdog that Kate and Durna we're not
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: participating at shoot around, so we'll have to kind of
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: get creative and be ready for this. I think starting
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: with those guys out is probably the way to do it,
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: and then you can move some things around because they're
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: they're a little expensive, so you'll there'll be some options
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: below them to get off of the Danis Jenkins and
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: Paul Reid's but I think I'm going to be going
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: right back to them again here if they are in,
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: because it's a really good matchup. Jenkins had an insane role.
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: He was essentially Kate Cunningham light like he had over
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: seven minutes a touch time, a ton of drives and
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: potential assists, like he literally filled in exactly the role
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: that Kate had.
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: But he's priced five thousand dollars cheaper than Kid tonight.
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: So you know, normally Kate is in like the ten
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: K range, so he's probably like, if the role considered,
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: he would probably be priced eight K to nine K
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: if he was just playing thirty six minutes a night
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: instead of Caid, So six point one K is actually
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: a pretty good value for him. And then the same
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: thing for Paul Reid, Like he's just a really strong
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: permanent producer. He's probably good up to like seven K
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: in the in the current role that he has, so
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: very very similar. Durhan doesn't do the same things that
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: Durren does, but from a fantasy point per minute standpoint,
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: very good in that sense. So I think both those
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: guys are gonna be guys that I look to heavily
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: because it is a good matchup with the Sixers. They've
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: been struggling defensively, given him a ton of points around
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: the basket, and especially in transition, they'd be getting killed there.
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: But the Sixers side, I think is also interesting. This
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: could be a game that kind of goes overlooked a
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: little bit from the Sixer side, and there are some
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: kind of big injury news that were waiting on the
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: VJ edgecomb stuff. It's not like you're taking away crazy
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: high usage guy, but that's a guy that's playing mid
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: thirties minutes that has to go somewhere. I think a
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: lot of that will go to Quentin grimes and then
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: a little bit more for Kelly Ubra as well, and
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: those guys that are pretty solid point per dollar plays
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: at six point four K and six point two K
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: assuming they're playing like thirty six to thirty eight minutes.
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: But Tyris Maxi is the guy that I'm looking to again.
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: I know that he didn't get there last time out
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: was actually pretty solid from a permanent standpoint. Only played
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: thirty four minutes, put up forty four DK points, so
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: pretty solid. There was one assist shy of the double double.
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: It was just kind of random that he didn't play.
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: He had played like twelve first half minutes and then
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: saw a bunch in the second half. But I think
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: in any normal game we're probably getting thirty eight to
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: forty from him. I'm gonna be projecting for forty minutes.
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: I think with this being an NBA Cup game, they
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: probably take it a little serious er, a little bit
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: more serious that that was not a word.
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: I don't know how that can't serious or I was
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: thinking about that one there.
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: Myself. But yeah, it's a really good spot. With Asar
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: Thompson out, the pick and roll defense for the Pistons
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: has been getting a lot worse, and just the on
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: ball the overall on ball defense is a lot worse
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: with usar outs. I think that it's gonna be a
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: pretty good spot for Tyre's Maxi here, so I really
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: like him as a spend up as a lowanned option.
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: I'll definitely be going right back to him, and then
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: Grimes and Ubray and Drummond I think are all pretty
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: solid values assuming vicha edge comes out. I think Drummond
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: is kind of fine regardless. He might be getting a
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: little over owned because I think there are some very
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: strong center spots tonight to attack, but eighteen percent is
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: about right.
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: I don't know what we have him at.
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: I have to check on sabersim, but I think that
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: he might be getting a little bit over owned considering
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: the strength of the position.
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I saw some major tilt the other night with
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: Tyres Maxley would have played what did you say, twelve
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: minutes in the first half and people.
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: I'll look at it up. It was it was like
• 18:19
  Speaker 3: weirdly low.
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, there was, yeah, but they were tilting out. So
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: Paul Reid, nothing nothing spells NBA Cup like a good
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: all revenge game narrative. I know, I know that chat
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: will be all over that one. But Paul Reid, we
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: only want him if Duran and and Stewart are out
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: or one of them out. What are we thinking on
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: Reid and he got bumped all the up to fifty
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: eight hundred bucks?
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: Uh No, I would play him.
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, think I think he's good, Like I think you
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: continue to play him assuming that Duran is out. I
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: think that he's really good. I actually liked the matchup
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: against Drummond. I don't think that he's a very good defender.
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: I don't I was gonna say anymore, But I don't
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: know if he really ever was. I think he was
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: just a really good rebounder.
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, that'll do it for that game. Yeah,
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: obviously a lot of jury news to pay attention to
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: before we head to the next one. Make sure you
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: hitting that, like, make sure you're hitting that subscribe once again,
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: we got a reminder we're giving one hundred dollars free
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: ticket away in our discord after this churtesy of our
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: guys Scooter McGavin coming off his ten k win last
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: night in the showdown streets with the help of our
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: guy beg little Neck who handles all that. So make
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: sure if you remember, head on over to the Discord.

  Speaker 1: We're giving away a three hundred dollars single entry ticket
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: to night. Make sure you want to get in on that.
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: That'll bring us to our next game. Rio. We got
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: the jail Blazers taking on the Rockets. Should be a
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: good game, should be up and down. This Trailblazer's team.
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: They're playing, they're playing, They're fun to watch, fun to play.
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: Got the Holiday Boys playing this when only one of
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: them is gonna be playing though, But talk to me
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: a little bit about this one, Trailblazers at the Rockets.
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: As far as injuries go, I don't see. I don't
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: see any major injuries on either side. Maybe I'm missing
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: something I know scoots out. But talking about this game
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: Portland at Houston.
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, before I do, I did just look at
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: the rotation for MAXI last game. It was seventeen minutes
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: in each half, which is normally like nineteen to twenty,
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: so a little bit less similar used to sink from him,
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: but still a good amount of minutes. But I think
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: that forty is probably closer to where he lands to night. Yeah,
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: this is a really really exciting game. I think just
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: two really good teams kind of all over the place.
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: Like the Rockets are first in offensive rating the season.
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: They're also top six I believe in defense something like that,
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: but the Blazers are up there in defense. This game
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: should play up to the pace. Blazers like to play fast.
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: Houston is the third slowest team in the league, but
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: we see teams that play up in pace kind of
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: dictate the speed of the game. So I think that,
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: you know, with this game being pretty high scoring, it's
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: a game that is really good to get into. There
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: are some pretty solid price tags on the Rockets side.
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: I think Singoon, Durant, and Amen are all pretty good
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: at their prices, but I kind of think that Amen's
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: in the best spot here. I just I like Amen
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: over Katie, mainly because I think that Amen does have
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: fifty five to sixty points in his bag. I'm not
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: really sure Katie does with the role that he has
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: with Houston. He was kind of on his way to
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: a pretty big game last time out, but then tapered off.
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: A lot of that was due to them just not
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: really needing him towards the end of the game, because
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: they were up by like fifteen plus the whole game,
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: so could have been like a forty five point game
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: from KD. But I just don't know if we're getting
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: the slate winning ceiling that we need from Durant in
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: this role. I definitely know that we have that within
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: the range of outcomes with Singoon and Thompson, so those
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: gonna be my two preferred options. Seng Gun's been pretty
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: close to some pretty big games all season pretty much.
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: I mean, he's kind of flirting with a triple double
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: in nearly every game, so some of those potential assists
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: can convert into actual assists he could really hit in
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: a big way. But I do think Amen is my
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: favorite option here, just against a team that plays pretty fast,
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: against a team that gives up some points in transition
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: and is kind of below average in pick and roll
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: and around the basket. I think that both those kind
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: of work in his favor. And then Jabari and Tari.
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: I wouldn't play those guys together, but I think they
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: are viable options at their price tags. Jabari kind of
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: needs efficient rebounding to get there because he's not gonna
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: take a ton of shots taking like mid teams over
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: the last few games and making them. But I don't
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: know He's just not really like a very exciting play
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: for me. But Reed Shepherd is another guy that fits
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: into builds really nicely. And I see myself needing a
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: cheap shooting guard, which is why I'll get to a
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: good amount of McBride and reach Sheepard just the way
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: I want to play. I see myself needing to spend
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: up at other positions, and Reid is kind of fitting
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: those builds. But he's had really strong outings the last
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: three games and really fitting into his role nice in Houston,
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: been getting talked up a ton by Alman Thompson, basically
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: telling him that he needs to stop passing up open
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: looks and he needs to shoot it more. So, you know,
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: I think that with the pace of play and all
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: that considered, he's a pretty solid option on any slate.
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: But four point two K, I mean, the price is
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: going down, but the fantasy production continues to go up.
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: So I think that he's a really strong option. But
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: like this Houston side, a ton Portland is a little
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: bit tougher because these prices are pretty efficient. I do
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: think that it's a decent spot for Denny. I think
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: that it might be Almand on him, but they might
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: throw Amen on Shade and Sharp. I'm not really too sure,
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: but the Rockets Duga give up the sixth most transition
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: points per game. Danny is fifth in the NBA in
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: transition scoring. I think if it's Jabari Smith on him,
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: I kind of like that matchup. But he's definitely a
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: guy that has a ton of upside at his price tag,
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: definitely the most on his team. It is a high
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: price tack pay for him, but he's definitely earned it,
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: has some pretty solid games. Sixty DK points is for
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: sure within the range of outcomes. I don't really love
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: the spot for Drew. I just think that he's mainly
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: too expensive. He's playing a lot of minutes right now
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: and shown pretty strong permanent numbers one point two Fantasy
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: points per minute per game this season.
• 23:55
  Speaker 3: I don't know. This is just kind of like a
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: ceiling price tag for him. I think.
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: I think if I'm looking elsewhere outside of Denny, I
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: wouldn't mind going to shadon Sharp. He's not going to
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: project great, but he's really shooting the ball well over
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: the last two games and kind of becoming the guy
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: that they thought that they would get when they signed
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: him to the contract. But he's put up thirty six
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: shots in his last two games and has gone twenty
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: five for thirty six from the field, so really efficient.
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: Shooting thirty plus real points in back to back games
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: doesn't really do a lot of the peripheral stats, but
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: if he does and you get that thirty thirty point outing,
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: he does have really really high upside at six.
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: Point five K.
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: And then too, moniy Kamara and Grant I think are
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: also like the last man in types of plays too.
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: Money should play a lot of minutes. They'll need him
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: for defense. And then Grant kind of has a decent
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: matchup with Portland giving up some earth Houston giving up
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: a good amount of threes per game kind of works
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: in his favor. But I think he's probably better just
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: play some bets on him on his overs than to
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: play him in DFS.
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, excellent stuff there, great breakdown. Yeah, reached Shepherd, I
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: saw that. I saw that too with a man talking
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: to my up. Hey read number three overall pick you
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: got to earn your keep and then and do your thing.
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: And I saw some some chattering there as well as
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: a shot depending. But he did pretty good in the peripherals.
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: The other night. Moving on to the next game, This
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: one's going to be exciting for DFS purposes. We have
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: a two hundred and thirty nine and a half point total.
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: We got Lamello, who looks to be trending towards playing.
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: We got my boy Cohn who's been balling, shooting a
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: bunch of threes taking on the Bucks. The only real
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: injury news here kpj he is out, and then Jannis
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: is questionable or probable with a Bruce Chin after taking
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: Sengoon's nuts to the face last game. So big ups
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: to Jannis to hopefully he gets back, hopefully he's doing
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: well well and those that Bruce Chin. But talk me
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: about this game, Charlotte at Milwaukee.
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: I just got to say a we could go today.
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: Jannis was on the slate and you asked what he
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: needed to be optimal, got eighty DK points and was
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: definitely optimal. I needed I need new ones to talk
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: some shit now and Chad after.
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: Nell and my boy Giddy, my boy, my guy, my
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: guy Giddy. He outdid Giddy for sure.
• 26:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah.
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: The with LaMelo returning, it kind of takes off the
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: allure of playing guys like Bridges and Cohn, and Sexton,
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: I think that they're con is probably overpriced now for life.
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: With LaMelo, I think that in the low six case,
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: he's probably fine just because he's such a good like
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: overall player and he can get it done.
• 26:25
  Speaker 3: In multiple ways.
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: But LaMelo is just he takes away so much of
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: the usage and assist numbers and even some rebounding as well.
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: That makes it tougher for these guys that hit value.
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: So I don't think that I'm going to have much
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: of those guys in my playpool, but I'll definitely get
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: some Diabate and plumb Lee tonight. It is a really
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: good matchup for both these centers. I think just I
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: just don't like Myles Turner just doesn't excite me as
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: a defender. He's not like he's an okay shot blocker,
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: but never been a great rim protector. I know those
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: things kind of are correlated, but they mean he's just
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: You look back to the years with the Pacers, they
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: always a team that gave a ton around the basket,
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: and the Bucks are one of the worst rebounding teams
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: in the league, the bottom two in rebounding behind the nets,
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: which is not in company that you want to be with.
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: So I think Dibate and plumb We both with their
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: price considered, are really really strong options. The only thing
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: that I will caution against both those guys is that
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: center is really strong tonight. Like there's a lot of
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: mid tier plays in the center range that I like
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: over them, and I think that if Diabate is really
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: going to be like thirty five to forty percent owned,
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: I'm okay getting away from that because I don't know
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: if he really has like the slate breaking upside that
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: we need. The way that he hits though, is like
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: those other centers that I am projecting pretty highly don't
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: do well, and Diaboate puts up like twenty eight to thirty,
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: which would pay off his price tag. But I do
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: think that there's some fifty DK point games from some
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: other centers on the slate. But I'll definitely play him
• 27:50
  Speaker 2: on teams that I need a four point two K
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: center because he fits it really well. And then Plumbly,
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: if he's playing that backup center role for like what
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: Diabat was playing behind cock Brenner with him out, then
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: he's also a value play at three K that I
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: would look to get to because I mean he hasn't
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: really played a lot of NBA action this year, returning
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: from an injury, and was in the G League helping
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: Long helping LaMelo return to play. But we know what
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: Plumbly is like. He's a he's a professional center, so
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: he's fine in three ks. Just doesn't really matter at
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: that at that position, and you only need a couple
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: of rebounds and points to really hit value, so he'd
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: be fine. But I'm not, like I said, I like
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: the center spot a lot tonight, so finding ways to
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: get away from them if I can, and then yeah,
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: all the things points Giannis smashing in this spot coming
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: off of four days rest NBA Cup game, He's gonna
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: want to play a ton against a struggling Hornet's interior
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: defense with now no Cockbrenner. So I think if the
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: Hornets can keep the game close, we might get full
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: run from Giannis. But I think either way he's a
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: smash play tonight. Spend up option looks really good. Got
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: to compete with kat from a point per dollars standpoint,
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: but I think that he he clearly has therobably the
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: second highest, if not the highest upside on the entire slate.
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: So he's really really strong tonight and then Ryan Rowins
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: I still think is in play. He's just playing really
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: well right now. It's a good matchup. He just put
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: up twenty five, five and six for forty three point
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: twenty five DK points against the same Hornets team, So
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: definitely an option to consider.
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, my gun doings give it to me in the
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: chat and rightfully so, Hey, come back in four years
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: will be the next time Jannis is on the winner. Uh,
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: we're going We're going for an eighty piece tonight, rio
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: with Giannis or or where you got where you got
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: Giannis to see the best spin up on the slate.
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: I mean it's between him and Luca. I don't.
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: I don't know because the spread's kind of yeah. I mean, yeah,
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: he's definitely.
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: I don't.
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: I don't really have a strong win right now. I
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: think those both those guys are really strong. But I
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: do think Jannis probably has a better chance of hitting
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: that ceiling. I just think that Lucas might be a
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: little bit higher. I actually don't, I don't really have
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: a strong lean. They're both really good.
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: Yeahtend for fifty seven. He's gonna look very nice tonight.
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: Appreciate you breaking that one all down. If you are
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: joining us for the first time today, hit that like
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: hit that subscribe button. It helps us out a ton
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: over here. Hey, we're also giving away one hundred dollars
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: single entry thanks to my guy Scooter McGavin after the
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: show in our discord. But we got another game to
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: talk about. We got the Sacramento Kings going into Minnesota
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: taking on this and Edwards led Timberwolves team in Rio.
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: I don't know if you saw my god, Doug Christy died,
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: Dug Christy giving it to his boys over there, saying
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: that he was embarrassed trying to talk him up. They've
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: been pewed for this year, mister triple double, Russell Westbrook
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: been balling, but they can't win a game. What'd you
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: think about that? What do you think about this game?
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: Kings at the tea Wolves.
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: I mean, I'm surprised it took him this long to
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: say something about this team. It's just such a poorly
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: constructed roster. I talked about it the beginning of the season,
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: like you just have so many guys that just don't
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: mesh well together. I mean, you have a team that
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: just wants to take a ton of mid range jumpers,
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: which are just statistically like all the advance analytics show
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: that you just should not be taking those shots, and
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: they just can continue to do it. So it just
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: doesn't make sense. The team that they put together, they're
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: gonna end up blowing it up pretty soon. I think
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: that Levine and Damar and potentially even Sabona should be
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: on the move here shortly, and then there's it'll just
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: be a lost season for Sacramento because it's just a
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: very poorly constructed team.
• 31:19
  Speaker 3: But I mean, I like it.
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: I think that coaches need to speak out a little
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: bit more when your team's playing that bad.
• 31:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I like it.
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: Appreciate that little neck likewise. But yeah, in terms of
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: DFS for this game, I think Sacramento is the next out.
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: Just can't I can't play a team like this where
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: the minutes could really bottom out in a huge way
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: if things go poorly. Like I wouldn't be surprised if
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: they do something weird and like bench Damorrow or Levine
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: or something like that. But I guess like some value
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: potentially could open up if the Demuta Sabonis who's questionable
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: gets ruled out. I just don't really know if there's enough,
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: like there's better. I'm not looking to get to any
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: of these like U Banks or ray Not. I don't
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: even know who that is. Like, I just don't think
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: you need to go to Sacramentos and I personally, but
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: I do think Minnesota you should very, very heavily look into.
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: And Anthony Edwards leads the way. I mean, he's on
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: tea right now. He'said three really good matchups, one of
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: them coming against the same King's defense. He put up
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: twenty six points in just thirty minutes. He's just been
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: killing these great matchups. The Kings give a ton of threes.
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: The teams are shooting seventy one percent at the rim
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: against them, so you can get to the basket at
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: ease and probably not going to be contested much. They're
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: giving up a ton of threes, a lot of catch
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: shoe buckets. Are also bottom four in pick and roll
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: and transition defense, so it's a really, really a big
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: spot for ant I think that he's got forty plus
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: in his bag tonight, assuming the Kings can hang around
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: for three and a half quarters, but he might even
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: get that done in three quarters. Like I think it's
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: just a really, really good spot for Ant. A point
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: nine K is a very I think it's like a
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: bargain price tag for him because he's got a ton
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: of upside here. The only thing that worries me is
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: that the Kings don't keep close and we don't get
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: like any fourth quarter run from Ant. But I really
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: like him tonight. Randall's same thing. I think that he's
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: in a great spot. He did not have a great
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: game against them last time out, but he's going to
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: see some pretty weak defenders, whether that's Nie Clifford or
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: Precious Atua or whoever else they put out there, Tomar
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: maybe at power forward. I think that he should be
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: able to bounce back in a pretty big way against them.
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: And yeah, Rudy Gobert is one of the guys that
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: I really like as a pivot center in that six
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: K five K range. He's There's been some good quotes
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: about Finch wanting to get him going early in games,
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: and he did just that against the King's last time out.
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: Went for nineteen points, twelve rebounds, double double forty eight
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: and a half DK points. The Kings are giving up
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: a ton of fantasy points to centers right now. They
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: are bottom three in fantasy points allowed to opposing centers
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: this season, giving up a ton of points in rebounds
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: and even some assists to the position. So I think
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: that Gobert has a lot of sneaky good upside here,
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: So I'm going to be playing heavily into that. I
• 33:56
  Speaker 2: like him a lot as a pivot off of like
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: Drummond and then kind of gets me off off of
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: the chalk here diabase type plays. Yeah, I love him tonight,
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: and then I think Dante de Vincenzo and Jada McDaniel's
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: are and play here. I do slightly prefer Jaden just
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: because he could it could be one of those games
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: where he gets a lot of easy buckets in transition.
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: He's got career highs in pretty much every stat this season.
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: He's really playing really well right now. So I do
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: like Jada McDaniel's a good bit and you should probably keep
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: notes reading the playpool as well, because if Randall is
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: limited at all, just like Nas kind of plays well
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: in the minutes that he's out there, or same thing
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: with Rudy, like if he just outperforms them, I think
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: that he could put up a really big game in
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: limited minutes.
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: The excellent stuff there a lot of talk. Did you
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: I know you mentioned my boy nee Clifford, but would
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: you play Nee Clifford or is he not a good
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: play tonight?
• 34:49
  Speaker 3: Not really, I mean I don't know.
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: I guess if he's starting, you can consider him. He
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: played thirty one minutes last game. It seems like just
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: like a low point permitted guy. I probably wouldn't, but
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: I'm not going to talk somebody off of somebody that's
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: four point three k with good eligibility that's starting.
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: Nothing gets to chat more fired up when I say Wolves,
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: t Wolves or Timberwolves. Probably the Timberwolves probably the appropriate
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: thing to say. They're excellent. Breakdown there. We got two
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: games left on the slate to talk about. We got Luca,
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: we got the Lakers. Austin Reeves headed into Nola to
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: take on the Zionist Pelicans. I heard you mentioned Derek
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: Queen earlier in the show. But talk to people about this game.
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: Lakers pretty big favorites, pretty heavy favorites in this one.
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: A pretty low total to twenty seven. But Lakers at New.
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: Orleans, Yeah, I mean that's a great spot for the Lakers.
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: I wouldn't set a rule for this per se, but
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: I do think that you're gonna want to strongly consider
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: playing one of Luca or Reeves, and I it's just
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: a really good spot against a team that allows the
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: second most pick and roll points per game. Luca is
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: first in pick and roll scoring and Reeves is right
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: behind him at fourth this season. So one of those
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: guys I think puts up a really big score. Pelicans
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: obviously have a really bad interior defense as well, but
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: they're also bottom six in three point defense, given up
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: a good amount of transition points as well, So there's
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: really a lot to like about the Lakers side here.
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: Definitely not playing you're playing Max one of Luca or Reeves,
• 36:20
  Speaker 2: but I do think that one of those guys hits
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: in a pretty big way. I would say, like the
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: downside for lucas that he's twelve K first and foremost,
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: but second of all, he will see the only good
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: defender on the Pelicans in Herb Jones. It hasn't really
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: been a lot of history between the two when in
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: years past, but I mean, teams are still getting done
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: against the Pelicans. I'm not really too worried about the
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: match of Luca coming off of a string of pretty
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: bad outed I think he gets going in a pretty
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: big way here. But if it's not him, then Reeves
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: with the point guard shooting guard eligibility makes a ton
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: of sense because he should see I think they might
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: put fears on him to start a rookie against Austin Reeves,
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: I think is a really good spot to attack.
• 37:00
  Speaker 3: I like him a ton Yeah, I think I.
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: Slightly prefer Reeves to Luca, just from like a points
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: per dollar perspective, because he's four k cheaper with a
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: very similar role, and he has shown that playing alongside
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: Luca doesn't really hurt his upside. Obviously, from like a
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: fantasy point per minute standpoint, his numbers do get a
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: little bit worse, but they'll stagger them enough where Reeves
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: can have the ball in his hands a lot in
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: the non Luca minute. So I do think that Reeves
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: really good option tonight. Then Ayden is another guy at
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: center that I'm considering. I know it's really gross and
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: there's a lot of negative things you could say about
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: DeAndre Ayden, but I mean this is a really good
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: spot for going to bounce back. I think the Pelicans
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: allowing the fifth most fantasy points to opposing centers second
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: most rebounds per game to the center position as well,
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: so I think that at the very least we're probably
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: getting a double double out of him. And I think
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: that just with the way that the Lakers run pick
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: and roll and the pick and pop stuff, it could
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: be a really really good spot to attack this Pelicans
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: team with DeAndre Aiden and one of the guards. I
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: like him a lot, and that's probably it for the Lakers.
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: I think those three make the most sense Pelicans side,
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: but these guys project decently. I'm never really looking to
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: play Trey Murphy at seven point seven K, just with
• 38:06
  Speaker 2: the current iteration of this team. I mean, he's going
• 38:08
  Speaker 2: to get a ton of usage and a ton of
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: minutes and a ton of shots, and I guess it's
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: a decent matchup. I think they'll have Ruy on him.
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: The range raccoms is a little too wide, though, because
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: he can really disappear at times, So I'm okay getting
• 38:21
  Speaker 2: away from him at seven point seven K. I do
• 38:24
  Speaker 2: think that if you play him, you probably want to
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: play into the game being close and maybe pairing him
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: up with one of those guys in the Lakers that
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: I mentioned makes some sense. I don't really like him
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: just just like a pure one off play. That's kind
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: of how I think I'm going to be approaching it,
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: just thinking through things. I don't really Curb Jones, don't
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: think we have any upside there. But Derek Queen, I
• 38:43
  Speaker 2: really really like him. He's playing really well right now.
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: I just don't really get why they're not starting him
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: right now. You traded up for him in the draft
• 38:50
  Speaker 2: last season, you're going to lose your picks. He might
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: as well play your best players. And he's clearly better
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: than Missy and Kevon Looney, Like he needs to be
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: playing thirty plus minutes a night. He's He's got a
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: really strong role in the minutes he is on the court.
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: Twenty three and a half percent usage rate, sixteen percent
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: assists rate, fifteen percent rebounding rate, so really good numbers.
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: Like they they're running the offense through him a lot,
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: in like a Jokic Sabonis Sannggoon type of role where
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: you you know, a lot of these dribble handoff stuff.
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: So he's got a lot of opportunity to put up
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: a pretty solid game with the peripheral stats. And obviously
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: DeAndre Aiden is not a great defender, so I think
• 39:24
  Speaker 2: that it's a really really good spot for Derek Queen.
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: Him being power forward eligible is the main thing that
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: I really love, though because I don't want to, I
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: would probably consider him at center, but I think playing
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: him at power forward with two other of those centers
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: that I mentioned is a spot I want to go tonight.
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: So I really like Derek Queen in this spot and
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: a just moving forward, I think they're going to start
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: to play him a little bit more. Four point nine
• 39:46
  Speaker 2: K is a really good price sag for him. And
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: then Jeremiah Fears, a guy that's always kind of getting
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: some attention, should if things go normally for him, he's
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: probably playing thirty plus minutes, but they might want to
• 39:59
  Speaker 2: look to Josey Alvarado here for the matchup against these guards.
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: I think that they would probably rather have Alvarado on
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: on Austin Reeves. I would probably be playing a little
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: bit less Fears, like a little bit less minutes for
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: Fears and a little bit more for Alvarado, and Alverado
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: we know can get done in twenty to twenty five minutes.
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: At three point nine K, he does make some sense
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: as of value play. And then Lastkal mentioned sidek Bay
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: playing a lot of minutes just like a three and
• 40:24
  Speaker 2: D rebound type of guy. But okay, spot for Lakers
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: giving up a decent amount of catcher shoots, so so
• 40:30
  Speaker 2: I don't I don't mind him as a as an
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: option at four point eight.
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: K the baby face killer Derek Queen like him, d
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: Q oh man, I would go for a blizzard right
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: now in a New York minute, Rio, I don't know
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: what you know about those blizzards, but they're delicious. Moving
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: on out here, you got DQ, okay, I started to
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: sleep on out there in La DQ. You give me
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: that Orio blizzard and throw some peanut butter in there.
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: It's curtains for your boy Ham over here.
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: I saw something funny on Twitter the other night. We
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: have a king, a queen, an ace and are all
• 41:00
  Speaker 2: in the NBA right now.
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: It's pretty well, that's it's pretty cool. I didn't know that.
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: Good to know. Love DQ over there though. Tonight, last
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: game on the slate, I believe, yeah, last game. Now
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: we're going to talk about is this Clippers team? Rio?
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: I know you're not a Clippers fan. I don't think,
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: but man, this team's pretty bad. I think. No Kawhi
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: tonight taking on another bad team. No Nico Harrison tonight.
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: But the Mavericks gosh their putrid Brandon Williams getting the
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: star looks like Cooper flag hit a free throw, young man.
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: Big news here. Anthony Davis and PJ. Washington both questionable.
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: Anthony Davis, don't breathe, automore, he might break, but ninety
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: eight hundred bucks? What are you doing this game? Clippers
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: at Dallas?
• 41:44
  Speaker 3: Oh, you gotta give him the backstory to the the
• 41:47
  Speaker 3: flag and Booker props.
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: So me and Rio had a little action the other
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: night on a Booker at eleven and a half rebounds
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: and assists, and my boy Cooper flag at what seventeen
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: and a half points? Ended on fifteen with a three
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: miss free throws, a miss dunk, a wide open three miss,
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: and another three point miss. It was it was heartbreak
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: cotail for me, for me and your boy Rio. But hey,
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: Cooper flag, we'll see better days. I know we got
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: one on Giannis the other day, so I like them
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: all ready for that. But man, that's the backstory. Talk
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: to me about this game. What's your take on the Clippers? Right?
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: They're pretty bad?
• 42:21
  Speaker 3: Right, They're terrible?
• 42:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean one of the most disappointing teams in
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: the league. Yeah, it's just kind of funny the way
• 42:27
  Speaker 2: that the league's going now. You have a lot of
• 42:29
  Speaker 2: these teams that are trying to get older with these
• 42:32
  Speaker 2: guys and recreate Yeah he likes do me Bride tonight?
• 42:37
  Speaker 3: No?
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: No, like I think he was playing off your joker Ace.
• 42:41
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah yeah yeah we yeah, the Clippers.
• 42:47
  Speaker 2: So these teams that are getting old and trying to
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: like recreate these super teams, it's just not working. Like
• 42:52
  Speaker 2: we've seen it time and time again with the Clippers
• 42:54
  Speaker 2: when they try to get the the Paul, George jam
• 42:57
  Speaker 2: Hard and Kawhi thing working just didn't work. And now
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: they added Bradley Beal and Chris Paul, like they're they're
• 43:02
  Speaker 2: not getting better. And there's some other teams in the
• 43:04
  Speaker 2: league that I can't really think of that have done
• 43:06
  Speaker 2: the same thing. Who else is out there that kind
• 43:09
  Speaker 2: of got like Sacramento is another team like that. You
• 43:11
  Speaker 2: don't really have a lot of these exciting young guys.
• 43:13
  Speaker 2: It's a lot of guys that are in their eighth
• 43:16
  Speaker 2: and ninth season that just don't really mesh well. So
• 43:19
  Speaker 2: it's just kind of an interesting dynamic with the league
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: the way that that's going. A lot of these young
• 43:23
  Speaker 2: teams are really good. Yeah, Brook Lopez to another guy
• 43:25
  Speaker 2: they added, Brolo.
• 43:30
  Speaker 3: Can't move, dude. He's yeah, he gotta, he's gotta.
• 43:33
  Speaker 2: I think it's time for him to hang it up.
• 43:35
  Speaker 2: He's just you don't got it anymore. But yeah, this team,
• 43:38
  Speaker 2: like both these teams, are really really disappointing this season.
• 43:42
  Speaker 2: But that's not to say that we can't get some
• 43:44
  Speaker 2: fantasy goodness out of this game because it is a
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: really good matchup for the Clippers. Offensively. The Dallas is
• 43:49
  Speaker 2: playing pretty fast, so they could be another team that
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: really speeds up the pace of the game, giving up
• 43:54
  Speaker 2: a ton of points at the basket. They will be
• 43:56
  Speaker 2: getting Derek Lively back to kind of kind of show
• 43:59
  Speaker 2: up a little bit of the rint protection. But even
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: then with him out there, they weren't that great defensively.
• 44:04
  Speaker 2: It's really just the on ball defense that has been
• 44:06
  Speaker 2: terrible for them. So it's a pretty exciting spot to consider.
• 44:10
  Speaker 2: For James Harden, he's shown that he still has the
• 44:13
  Speaker 2: upside that you need to win tournaments. Had a triple
• 44:15
  Speaker 2: double against Atlanta in thirty nine minutes. He's probably gonna
• 44:17
  Speaker 2: be playing thirty nine minutes in any game that they
• 44:21
  Speaker 2: need to win that they need him to win because
• 44:23
  Speaker 2: they just can't get done with him off the court.
• 44:27
  Speaker 2: He's gonna be guarded by Max Chrissy, So already liked
• 44:29
  Speaker 2: that matchup there. Mavericks given up the six most pick
• 44:31
  Speaker 2: and roll points per game, So yeah, I think that
• 44:33
  Speaker 2: Harden makes a lot of sense as a spend up option. Tonight,
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: nine point six K is a little uncomfortable. I think
• 44:38
  Speaker 2: he's probably like more so worth it, like eight point
• 44:41
  Speaker 2: AK to nine K, but I do think that there
• 44:43
  Speaker 2: is still some upside for him there.
• 44:45
  Speaker 3: Same thing for Zubac.
• 44:46
  Speaker 2: His defense has not been great this season, but still
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: getting it done offensively. It's an elite matchup for the
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: way that the MAVs get killed around the basket, and
• 44:53
  Speaker 2: I think that they'll he could get some really clean
• 44:55
  Speaker 2: looks if the MAVs do everything they can to try to.
• 44:58
  Speaker 3: Slow Harden down.
• 45:00
  Speaker 2: Dallas bottom four DVP versus centers this season, So another
• 45:03
  Speaker 2: guy that I want to get exposure to at the
• 45:05
  Speaker 2: center position. And then John Collins. He's only started twice
• 45:09
  Speaker 2: for the Clippers, but he's gonna they'll try to get
• 45:11
  Speaker 2: him going. I think that he is a guy that
• 45:13
  Speaker 2: does have some upside that we have not seen yet
• 45:15
  Speaker 2: on the Clippers. We saw him have a really really
• 45:18
  Speaker 2: strong season for Utah last season, like one of his
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: best seasons in his NBA career, so we know that
• 45:24
  Speaker 2: the talent is still there, and I think five point
• 45:25
  Speaker 2: four K is a really good price side for him.
• 45:28
  Speaker 2: Outside that, I think that's it for me. I think
• 45:30
  Speaker 2: those three guys are the only ones I really want
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: to get exposure to. And then for Dallas, I think
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: it's just Flag and Brandon Williams. Flags started to I mean,
• 45:38
  Speaker 2: he's talked about his body game beat up, and that
• 45:40
  Speaker 2: was the first thing that I noticed when he checked
• 45:42
  Speaker 2: back into the game at the six minute mark last
• 45:44
  Speaker 2: time out, was he was just like, very low energy
• 45:48
  Speaker 2: and wasn't being assertive like he was in the first
• 45:50
  Speaker 2: three quarters. So it could be, you know, the NBA
• 45:53
  Speaker 2: games kind of wearing on him a little bit. But
• 45:55
  Speaker 2: that being said, he has started to play a lot
• 45:57
  Speaker 2: better and I think he's starting to figure out the
• 45:59
  Speaker 2: NBA a lot more. And I do think that not
• 46:02
  Speaker 2: having him run the point helps him in a sninky,
• 46:07
  Speaker 2: big way like he's not asked to do as much
• 46:09
  Speaker 2: with the ball in his hands. But Brandon Williams has
• 46:12
  Speaker 2: been running the point really well. He was really aggressive
• 46:14
  Speaker 2: last time out, looking for his open man and also
• 46:16
  Speaker 2: getting to the basket at will. Just the way that
• 46:19
  Speaker 2: the Clippers aren't playing that well on defense, I think
• 46:21
  Speaker 2: is a pretty solid spot for Brandon Williams. But he's
• 46:24
  Speaker 2: not towards the top of my list in terms of
• 46:27
  Speaker 2: point guards, and I think he probably would check in
• 46:32
  Speaker 2: I don't know, fifth or six, something like that, six
• 46:35
  Speaker 2: or seventh, I don't know. I definitely prefer him to
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: Fears if you're in that same range. He's a little
• 46:39
  Speaker 2: bit more expensive, but I do like him more than
• 46:42
  Speaker 2: Fears because he does have more upset, I believe.
• 46:45
  Speaker 3: But that's about it for Dallas.
• 46:47
  Speaker 2: I don't really want to be I don't want to
• 46:50
  Speaker 2: try to make Klay Thompson happen at four point two.
• 46:52
  Speaker 3: K I get it, he played better last time out.
• 46:54
  Speaker 3: Maybe he plays a little more.
• 46:56
  Speaker 2: With PJ and Anthony Davis likely out for this game,
• 47:00
  Speaker 2: but I just think you're kind of asking for a
• 47:02
  Speaker 2: little bit too much from these guys. So it's really
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: just flag and Williams from me, and then those three
• 47:06
  Speaker 2: I mentioned on the Clippers side.
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: Excellent breakdown there. That'll do it. That's all I gains.
• 47:12
  Speaker 1: We had a request, do you have like a quick
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: snippet on any Warriors or Spurs or have you? Did
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: you not dive into that game because mainly your stuff's
• 47:20
  Speaker 1: on DK.
• 47:21
  Speaker 2: I could look at it real quick, just looking purely
• 47:26
  Speaker 2: at the salary. Yeah, I think Wemby fine option. Again,
• 47:32
  Speaker 2: probably a little too expensive for Castle on this slate.
• 47:35
  Speaker 2: I think don't mind going back to Curry. I think
• 47:37
  Speaker 2: they're gonna probably run the similar game plan obviously has
• 47:41
  Speaker 2: a upside. I don't know where he would rank in
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: terms of point guards because it is strong all around
• 47:46
  Speaker 2: tonight and he is not super cheap. But yeah, I
• 47:50
  Speaker 2: don't know. You're always playing Wemby on fandule. I think
• 47:53
  Speaker 2: just what the stocks upside makes him always probably the
• 47:56
  Speaker 2: top spind on any slate. So I think that I
• 47:58
  Speaker 2: probably just looked to him and probably just Steph and
• 48:02
  Speaker 2: Jimmy on on FanDuel. All Right, I guess uh muses
• 48:06
  Speaker 2: Moody and will Richard because they're gonna be starting moving forward.
• 48:08
  Speaker 2: I guess you could consider them if you need that
• 48:11
  Speaker 2: type of value. I just don't really know how they
• 48:12
  Speaker 2: rank against the other value plays on the slate.
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, what about Brandon Williams versus Sugs? Fifty four hundred
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: for Williams, fifty one hundred.
• 48:20
  Speaker 3: For Sugs, Sugs for me, snugs for you?
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: All Right, my favorite part of the show. Give me
• 48:26
  Speaker 1: a guy, Oh, what's a six K? Is probably too easy?
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: Let's go fifty six hundred and below. Give me a guy,
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: tonight low own sub fifty six hundred gallon DK.
• 48:38
  Speaker 2: What's the ownership threshold gotta be? Let's go twenty five percent,
• 48:44
  Speaker 2: twenty five percent below. Uh, you said fifty five hundred
• 48:59
  Speaker 2: and below.
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: That's fine, fifty six, but yeah, fifty five fifty six
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: is good?
• 49:03
  Speaker 2: Then I think, Uh, I don't know. I think I
• 49:06
  Speaker 2: think Wendell Curter Junior is pretty good at fifty six hundred.
• 49:09
  Speaker 2: I really like picking on the nets with opposing centers.
• 49:12
  Speaker 2: They've just been giving up a ton of rebounds and
• 49:14
  Speaker 2: a ton of fantasy points of position. So I do
• 49:16
  Speaker 2: think that he is in that range of centers that
• 49:19
  Speaker 2: I really want to pivot to. Yes, I think Wendo
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: Curter Junior.
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: I like him Win O'Connor Jr. I then then Non
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: Non Luca, non Giannis. Who's the top player when it's
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: all said and done to night.
• 49:33
  Speaker 3: Oh it's easy. It's kat Cat for sure.
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Cat it is the cover boy, ninety four hundred
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: bucks in for a great night with no Ant.
• 49:40
  Speaker 3: I like those two guys the most in that in
• 49:41
  Speaker 3: that range.
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: Catter Ant ninety four hundred bucks. Uh, that'll do it.
• 49:46
  Speaker 3: I would have said, Queen, but he was over thirty percent,
• 49:48
  Speaker 3: so I didn't.
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: Yah got his scooter, my guy, Scooter's gonna run it
