The fall systems going on. Clear what's going on? Everybody? We're back
0:38
talking hoops, my man Rio and I six games on the Mayo Media Network.
0:43
Shout out to everybody already in Jack Oh Glack pair, Bye, Ben
0:47
Wyatt, Jordan's Cool Hands, Brian England Bowl, Michael Charlie. Appreciate those
0:52
words out there. Looking. Uh, I'm looking to have a better day
0:56
than yesterday, and that won't be very hard. It was uh not even
1:00
a zero dollar day. It was a negative dollar day over here. Our
1:03
man Rio though, had a good day, was very close and some mm
1:06
stuff got that late nincash and the twenty five hundred great stuff. Rio and
1:11
I saw a lot of members had some success as well. Yeah, I
1:14
mean drumming the lock of all locks. Caid got there with the monster second
1:18
half. Still was not enough for the Pistons though, Detroit so close.
1:22
Last night. What's going on? Rio thoughts on the sixth Gamer and I
1:25
was last night. Yeah, last night was good. I had a couple
1:29
of teams climbing up there in the twenty max and the Lotto I think I
1:30
finished. I was in the second place at one point in the lotto.
1:34
I got like seventeenth I think with that team, and then that same team
1:38
got seventh in the four dollars twenty max, so it was pretty good night.
1:42
I wish I had a better performance with a MILLI team ended up going
1:45
with the Atlanta Hawk Chicago game. Stack had to Johntay Murray and there Jalen
1:49
Johnson was feeling pretty good about them. Coming at one percent ownership. Dejonte
1:53
started off super hot, so I thought my team would have been off to
1:57
the races, but then you know, Caid and Franz had huge games,
2:00
which were two other guys we were definitely on. They had great matchups.
2:02
But yell, and I'm definitely happy with the performance the tools over here at
2:07
ship it have been crushing. Boomer's projections have been on point, so definitely
2:12
looking forward to the rest of the season. Think that we're kind of starting
2:15
to heat up right now. So yeah, really excited. This is a
2:17
pretty good slate, as always, a ton of injury news. We'll do
2:21
our best to break it down for you guys. Yeah, I mean,
2:23
one for one, you can't complain a little oero for five piece over here.
2:27

2:30
thousand, five hundred. It was all tickets, but hey, one for
2:34
one, great stuff and thank you. Boomer. Projections are updated so you

2:49
very excited to get going with this. A lot of like I said,

3:00

3:40
of familiar faces in here, always in the discord, chopping it up with
3:44
people, cheering people on. I saw that team yesterday. Rio was that
3:47
Spencer Dinwiddie he used at one snowflake right, Yeah, that's what I thought.
3:52
But other than that, yeah, I think a lot of good calls
3:54
yesterday. Of course missed on some. We got Booch being out though,
3:58
we got the Drummond Stone cold lock and he did what he usually does,
4:01
little twenty twenty piece right there, just sub Phil. Love to see that

4:16
join the fun. What's going on? JB. Knox. Tons of
4:19
Q tags as always, I mean a six gamer, nothing changes, MBA
4:24
Q tags, the story of the association, any leans on any of these
4:29
guys. You just want to go game by game and get right into it.
4:31
Yeah, I think we just go game by game. I think that'll
4:35
probably be the best way to do it. But did want to shout out
4:38
one person think I think his name is trying to get this money, and
4:42
Discord was fourth. I believe in the four door twenty Max he had the
4:46
guy that I was touting towards the end of the slate, Cody Martin at
4:49
one percent on got up to twenty three twenty four draftings points at thirty five,
4:54
So that was pretty cool to see. I saw him a couple spots
4:57
behind me with Cody Martin in there and then he I ended up leap frogging
5:00
me. But yeah, shout out to him fourth place. Definitely good showing
5:03
for him. Absolutely. Yeah, and what a call for you. I'm
5:06
Cody Martin. Yeah, that was we talked about at them. There was
5:10
no value. I mean he was like less than one percent known what a
5:14
call that was. And then all the injury news, the eight and the
5:16
shad and sharps. You're also on that if you backload for some Anthony Simons,
5:20
Fox got their lates. But hey, Daily Fantasy Sports on times it's
5:25
a bad day, sometimes it's a good day, regardless. Always got to
5:29
put your foot forward, look forward to the next slate. So let's get
5:31
right into this one. Rio and again we appreciate that like button out there.
5:35
That subscribe button as well helps us out a ton first game of the
5:40
slate, I do say, I do like how the times of this one
5:43
are all six games within an hour and a half. Two games at seven
5:46
pm Eastern, one game at seven thirty, two at eight, one game
5:49
at eight thirty Eastern, so all condensed hour and a half. Hey,
5:54
do what you want after that. I'm debating going to play some poker at
5:57
the casino to get some of my money back from yesterday. I got it
6:00
double up over here. So hope everybody out there has a good night.
6:03
Enjoy it with the family, enjoy doing whatever you want to do. After
6:06
the eight to thirty eastern lock time. First game of the night, Philadelphia
6:11
seventy six ers Orlando Magic two twenty eight and a half total. Orlando is
6:15
favored by two big news in this game obviously. As far as the Philly
6:19
side, Juwel Embiid is out again, expect Paul Reid to start. Hopefully
6:25
he doesn't get in early foul trouble. Mobamba will be the backup five.
6:29
As far as Orlando side, we saw they played yesterday. Jalen Suggs did
6:34
return. I'm the first like seven minutes of the game, he had a
6:38
twenty spot. Three quay threes slowed down after that. Joe Ingles is questionable.
6:43
Gary Harris is questionable. Anthony Black dude, he also just absolutely smashed
6:48
early. I think good defender. I'm not a big fan of his offensive
6:53
game yet. He's still pretty young, but he also had like a twenty
6:56
spot early in that one with Jalen Suggs. I'll throw it over to you.
6:59
This art begin to get a Franz repeating this one, and then you
7:02
have to talk. Obviously on the seventy six ers side, if I had
7:05
to say two teams out of the story of the slate, I don't know.
7:09
I mean, obviously, the nets, when we'll get to them,
7:11
are definitely gonna be popular. The Raptors has some interesting pieces, and of
7:15
course without embiid Philly is interesting, but most of them are priced somewhat accordingly.
7:20
Tobias Melton, Paul Reid, Maxy uber I all do expect to get
7:26
some ownership, though how many is too many? Start on that side and
7:29
then talk about anybody on the Magic. Yeah, so the Philly side,
7:33
you know, we saw Paul Reid get the start, gone to Feu Troub
7:36
pretty quickly, had a bad runout. Mobamba kind of came in after him
7:41
and got really hot, So I think they just kind of rode the hot
7:43
hand. But do expect Paul Reed to start. Don't think that he's as
7:46
much of like a smash value play as he was from years prior. When
7:50
Embiide is missed there, you know, they have enough bodies behind him to
7:54
kind of not give him the super big workload. Mobamba obviously playing better.
7:58
A little bit of a revenge spot too, if you want to go there
8:00
against his old team in the Magic. But yeah, I mean the interior
8:03
defense held up for the Sixers with without Mbi, they've actually been pretty bad
8:07
interior at the interior defense within beat in there. But they were pretty solid
8:11
last game against the Heat. But they did get out rebounded thirty six to
8:16
fifty six, so it's super big rebounding discrepancy. But yeah, I don't
8:22
I don't really want to get to the backup centers in this one. Just
8:26
think that, you know, we'll talk about the next game or one of
8:28
these next games with the nets NETS value that we'll have plenty of people to
8:31
choose from in that game. I'm more so looking to Maxie, Tobias Harris,
8:35
Anthony Melton. I think that Max is in a fine spot too.
8:41
The Magic Guard defenders action been getting beat up a little bit this year,
8:45
and you know, we know Maxi is going to play huge minutes, probably
8:48
get up to forty in this game if it's a close one, and he's
8:52
leading the team in usage with and beat off the court, second on the
8:54
team in assist percentage. I mean, overall, the Magic are really solid
8:58
defense, surprisingly one of the best defense in the league. They're a top
9:01
four in D rating. But I like the spot for Maxi here. A
9:05
little bit a point ak is not too bad of a price SIKEE pay for
9:09
him, And if you don't want to pay almost nine K for Max,
9:11
I think Tobias Harris and the Anthony Mellon are totally fine plays, really strong
9:15
values. Tobias Harris has been on fire lately too, back to back games
9:18
of thirty three and twenty seven real points fifty seven forty seven DK points,
9:22
so he's he looks pretty good. I think I prefer Melton though, just
9:26
overall on the sixer side, he second on the team and usage behind MAXI
9:31
with them beat off of the court, and I think he's going to see
9:33
huge minutes as well. Fifty one hundred really good price sect for him,
9:37
so I like him the best. We did see Kelly Ubray get up to
9:39
forty minutes last game, which is the most he's gotten maybe all year,
9:43
but definitely since he's returned from the biking incident. And yeah, he put
9:48
up forty four DK points. I think that he's definitely an option to shooting
9:52
guard small Ford eligible. Anybody at five point seven k that's getting that high
9:56
of minutes we have to have interest in. And on the the magic side,
10:01
don't really have a ton of interest. Just this team is, you
10:03
know, with with getting I'm assuming they're going to get a lot of these
10:05
guys back the Gary Harris, Jonathan Isaac, Joe Ingles, so they will
10:09
take off a lot of the minutes upside of some of the secondary guys.
10:13
But yeah, it's not the best spot with the Sixers pretty solid into your
10:18
defense without dwell embiid surprisingly, so this team is just going to be attacking
10:22
the Rim the whole time. We know that they are the I think they're
10:26
the top rim attacking team. They take the most attempts around the rim in
10:31
the league. So I just don't know if I see a ton of upside
10:33
from these guys, especially on a back to back where they just played a
10:37
ton of minutes. So I'm kind of fine getting away from the Orlando guys
10:39
and I'm more so looking to the Philadelphia value in this game. Yeah,
10:43
I see it the same way. I mean, we're gonna get to a
10:46
lot so many Q tags on this spot, and we already have good injury
10:50
news like and beads already out, so like, I really don't think I
10:54
need to get to any of these magic They treated us well yesterday. If
10:56
you had Franz too bad and I played like Pat Will on that team and
11:01
some other bombs that did absolutely nothing, but Franz absolutely knew. They played
11:05
a lot of minutes. They're getting healthy, though. I'm on your side,
11:09
Like, if I played anyone, it would be either Paulo or Franz.
11:13
I just there's other guys I do like on this slate more. Would
11:18
you max one Paul Reid and Mobamba with them both being center eligible four point
11:22
eight four K, and then we're gonna get to the Darren Sharps, the
11:26
Yaka Pearls, Like I think you pretty much have to max one. I
11:28
think you see it the same way. Yeah, definitely. And did you
11:33
have a preference. I was gonna be probably a third of the ownership,
11:41
half to a third the ownership. I think, yeah, I would.
11:45
I would just side with the starter because I don't think that it's too crazy
11:48
to think that Obama could start, just with how well he played last game
11:52
and how I guess how bad Paul Reid did play. But yeah, I
11:54
would. I would decide with the starter. Yeah, makes sense, and
11:58
Obama starts out, would definitely love him. Yeah, And like you said,
12:01
the revenge, how much does that mean? Not too much, but
12:03
a very good point for a minute, producer would love if he is.
12:07
I was saying, I'm back in Arizona. Someone who's asked the like,
12:09
it's nice you can actually see the sun, and Lyle says, it's actually
12:11
sunny today, but it is cold. Well, I left after two weeks.
12:16
I think I saw the sun once. First day back here, I
12:18
see the sun NFL. It's amazing, but all right, there you go.
12:20
You got narratives on both sides. Mobamba Revenge and Paul Reid is from
12:24
Orlando, so you can you can play the starter. I agree with you
12:30
the starter. I do think whoever start, like if Mobamba starts, I
12:33
guess the ownership has to be capped to an extent because centers that loaded.
12:37
But it's definitely a two center night in almost all my bills is how I'm
12:41
seeing it right now. But yeah, I like the Tobias is, the
12:45
maxis, the Meltains. Are you gonna make a cap? A lot of
12:48
people ask like how many is too many? And I don't like that question
12:52
too much because everything's so slate dependent. Obviously not all the bulls got there
12:56
yesterday, but damar like Caruso pat Will, like there was so many good
13:01
plays Kobe White. I don't love those questions as much on a slate like
13:05
this that's so loaded, like are you gonna go in the solver and make
13:09
a cap and saying I can't play more than three four, et cetera.
13:13
Or you find whatever you get, you get. I'm kind of fine with
13:16
whatever I get. I don't think we need to be making super I've kind
13:20
of paired myself out of some good builds by making too many rules. I
13:24
don't really want to get into it that much. Same thoughts here, Yeah,
13:28
yeah, I'm the same way. It always goes back to that showdown
13:33
the Deontay Foreman Khalil Herberts Roshawn Johnson game, and it was like a two
13:37
hundred and fifty k win or something. I grouped him out and never again
13:41
there. So let's move on to the next game, the second of two,
13:45
the Locks of seven PM Eastern big total miss one Raptors Wizards two forty
13:50
total. Toronto's favored by eight. No injury news on the Toronto side.
13:54
As far as the Wizards, Kyle Kuzma is questionable obviously big news. There
14:00
also a back to back for them. Do you have any lean on Kuzma?
14:03
And if he is in, I think Washington will be the lowest owned
14:07
team on the slate. I don't think I'd get to any of these guys
14:09
like Yeahfford at six K centers two loaded Kuzm at a two. Give me
14:15
Siakam for a little cheaper, Give me Scottie Barnes in this game for a
14:18
little more. Give me the Tobias is the max season the other one,
14:22
so easy fade. If Kuzma's in for me, if he's out, I
14:26
mean, man Tias Jones has been playing great ball. I think he'd be
14:30
interesting. Maybe it would still be a little lower owned thoughts on Kuzman.
14:33
Then talk about these Raptors. I think yaka pernlsaka Scotty Barnes, I'll get
14:39
a little bit of ownership. Yeah, I think Kuzma should probably play.
14:43
It's a quad contusion, so just a pretty bad bruise. I think that
14:46
he should be fine to play, and if he does, I think I
14:50
have a little bit more interest in him than you do, just because the
14:54
is actually a pretty solid spot for opposing wings and forwards against the Raptors.
15:01
And yeah, they I mean, I'll just read off some of these stat
15:03
lines that the Raptors have given up to players, you know, with the
15:07
same player archetype. I would say, as Kyle Kuzma, we give up
15:11
thirty nine and five to Lori Markinen, thirty three eight and seven to Tobias
15:16
Harris, fifteen seven and four to PJ. Washington, thirty four eight and
15:20
five to Julius Randall. And that's just a couple of guys within the last
15:22
ten games. I think that I always talk about it with you know,
15:26
Wizards games. We always want to attack this team, so we always are
15:30
interested in guys from the opposite side of the Wizards, and a lot of
15:33
the ways that you can access the ceiling to those guys is by the Wizards
15:37
keeping the game closed. So I think that Kuzma makes a ton of sense
15:41
if you wanted to get into some correlation with them, and the matchup is
15:43
really not all that bad. I like your tighest Jones shout. He's been
15:46
playing a lot better kind of what we were accustomed to with Tys Jones all
15:50
those years and all those games. Here he was back on. John Morant
15:54
just came in and didn't skip a beat. So he's fine. Six point
15:58
six K is getting a little bit up there in price, but I think
16:00
that he's okay. I do like this match up here for Daniel Gafford too.
16:04
I always talked about with Yaka Pearl, he's just a he's a turnstile
16:07
defender. He's not not good at rent protection. And Gafford has been you
16:11
know, he's been playing a lot better, a lot more consistently the last
16:15
couple of games. He had a couple of games in the forties, has
16:17
a fifty six pointer in there, So I don't think that he's the craziest
16:21
spot in a loaded center position where there's going to be a lot of ownership
16:23
on some other guys. He'll come in with little to no ownership. But
16:27
outside those guys, not a ton of interest in really anybody else. And
16:30
then yeah, on the raptors side, a lot of interest in all of
16:34
these guys. Pretty much. My favorite one is gonna be Scotty Barnes for
16:37
sure. Wizards are dead last and DVP to small forwards on the year,
16:41
giving up a good amount of three pointers. Scotty's been shooting really well this
16:45
year. He's going to be driving the ball. He's been playing a lot
16:48
better just and he's definitely got the highest upside in this team him in Siakam,
16:52
But I prefer Scotty just because he's got the sixty to seventy pointers in
16:56
him, where I think that Siakams ceiling probably can happed around fifty five to
17:02
sixty. So I would side with Scotty, and he's only seven hundred more.
17:03
We should be able to have enough value to get to him. So
17:07
I love the spot for him Siakam and equally as good of a spot though
17:11
he's gonna be he's more drive heavy, one of the more drive heavy power
17:12
forwards up to eleven point six, driverer games, shooting the ball well down
17:17
there, great matchup for him, good price sag as well, so he's
17:22
he's in play as well. I did see some talk about Schroeder earlier in
17:27
the discord. I only have a ton of interest in him. He's just
17:30
not playing that good right now. The upside hasn't been there. Scottie Barnes
17:33
has taken a lot more of the lead ball handling, a lot of usage
17:37
and assist away from him, which is where he'll access a lot of his
17:40
sittings. I think I'm okay getting away from him. OG's good yaka Perle.
17:45
This is the nut matchup for centers, with the Wizards being dead last
17:48
versus the position in DVP. Issue with him is that the minis the minutes
17:53
are fluctuating a lot right now, and he's he's losing some to precious Atua.
17:59
So it's a little bit a little bit of a sketchy play, but
18:02
I mean there's not there's literally no better matchup for opposing center. So I
18:04
think that he's definitely an option. What are your thoughts? I think the
18:10
Gafford shout's interesting because yeah, you look three of his last five game fifty
18:14
forty forty the other ones in the twenties. Interesting point from Jason, and
18:18
I know that's bard Bear or something. Chat. I probably butchered it.
18:22
But I know exactly what your name in discord is. I can't. It's
18:25
just always. I don't even read the names anymore. Just first glance,
18:27
I know who it is, So shout out to you. Jason always in
18:30
the chat as well. But he said playing a little less minutes on back
18:34
to backs. What are your thoughts with him? And yaka pearl with four
18:38
hundred dollars, Gafford is more. I think Purdle's probably gonna be three times
18:44
his own, two times his own or something. You look at the last
18:45
couple of games twenty minutes twenty eight, nineteen fifteen. More you talk about
18:51
it, and I think with ownership, I do prefer Gafford a bit.
18:53
Now we'll get to we already talked on Paul Reed on Mobamba. We'll get
18:57
to these nets, guys. So it's not like you need to play either
19:00
of them, but you think you prefer Gaffer to yaka Pearl on a vacuum
19:04
baby bear. Yeah, you're you're close. I knew it was something like
19:10
that, But again, I don't even read if it's something like that name,
19:12
I just I know who you are. I disassociate a lot of the
19:17
people in discord with their their little Avis. I just the names either.
19:22
Yeah, I think I would actually side with Pearl here. I'm gonna just
19:26
take a take the risk with him with the minutes, just because the matchup
19:30
is so good and we've seen him in really good match was put up really
19:33
big scores. I mean Atlanta, what six seven games ago, he put
19:37
up forty seven in thirty two minutes. I think that is definitely within his
19:41
range of outcomes. And I have noticed that Gafford does get a little bit
19:45
more limited on back to backs. They've been pretty cautious with him. He's
19:48
got He's always you know, he's like the new Anthony Davis. He's always
19:52
making trips of the locker room getting injured. I think Gallinari had missed a
19:57
few games as well. He's been kind of rest lots. I think that
20:00
having him back would take away some of the minute ceiling from him as well.
20:03
So yeah, I think I'll say with Parole for cheaper and a better
20:07
matchup. Uh, I like it? What about I love Scotti for sure,
20:11
He's gonna be probably one of the more popular spans. I'm definitely good
20:14
eating that chalk. I love Scotty, can't even he can't ask for a
20:17
better matchup, has a ball in his hand a ton I mean, I
20:21
love love Scotty. I always prefer him to Siakam too. Walso is fine
20:25
in this spot. I agree with your Schroeder take, like, give me
20:27
the Anthony Melton right in that same range as well, and m m me
20:30
and stuff. I don't think he's the worst play, but I would much
20:33
prefer Meltin or some of those other mid tier guys with Scotty handling the ball
20:38
a lot. Schroeder playing more off ball too. What about og thoughts on
20:42
him kind of in that same range MULTII guard and Ford eligibility, But I
20:48
mean, obviously Scottie Barnes is way better. He's in that Yaka Peartle Gafford
20:55
range a bit at a position garden Ford which is better than center, better
21:00
and you'd rather like there's less options there better price. I will say at
21:03
fan Duel five point nine k as well, Buddy fits the scoring a little
21:07
better over there. Ownership should follow up. What are your thoughts are on
21:11
d Ka? Yeah, I mean I like him. The Wizards surprising are
21:17
a little bit better to opposing shooting guards, but it's not really saying much.
21:21
They still suck pretty much everywhere. There's a lot of pivots in that
21:26
same range of if he were to pick up some steam, because I mean,
21:30
you got Dante ExHAM in the game where he where Luka Doncic's questionable,
21:33
he might be the lead ball handler. You got Toary Easton who could be
21:36
starting tonight. I mean Kelly Ubre in the other four PM game, who
21:41
could see forty minutes. So I think that there are other options if OJI
21:44
were to get Chalky, He's not like the highest upside. He has a
21:47
couple couple of games where he's been in the forties, a couple thirties,
21:51
but he also has games where he's in the teens low teens, And I
21:53
think that you're gonna need thirty five plus from that that position in that price
22:00
range. So I think it's okay to get away from I would much rather
22:03
just get up to Scotty or Siakham. Yeah, and you also have Middleton,
22:07
who's already in a good spot right here, and if Jannis is out,
22:10
we're about to get to that game would be very very chalky guard forward
22:15
eligibility as well. What's going on? OMG Lows hope you're having a good
22:19
afternoon yourself, my man. Let's keep it rolling. Next game on the
22:22
slate again, we appreciate that, like button, only six games on a
22:26
Wednesday feels weird. It was nine yesterday, six today. Hey anything I
22:30
like the six and above. I'm not fours. Fine, give me basketball
22:33
any day, three, whatever it may be. Give me the more slates
22:37
though, more players to choose from, have other people make more mistakes.
22:41
That's how I see it. Next game on the slate, and this is
22:45
the biggest one in terms of DFS. We got the Milwaukee box heading to
22:48
Brooklyn. Two forty and a half total Bucks are favored by seven. Looking
22:52
at the injury reporting this one, Giannis is questionable obviously. If he's out,
22:57
I mean this game would just be all the dfscal or Middleton, the
23:02
Dames, brook Bobby, you name it, they'd all be good plays.
23:06
And for Brooklyn they're already all very good plays. Because Dinwiddy, Claxton,
23:11
Cam Johnson all out resting today on a back to back Dorian Finney Smith is
23:15
questionable. This line feels a little like Giannis might sit to me, Yeah,
23:23
especially seeing all these other guys rolled out, and I would not be
23:26
surprised one bit to see him sit. This game is thirty minutes after Locke.
23:30
Hopefully we do get it. Talk if Jannis is in, what does
23:33
that do for the buck side? Who do you have interest in? Obviously?
23:36
With these nets, I mean, man, I was kind of kicking
23:38
myself yesterday because Darien Sharp the minutes weren't there like eighteen eighteen eighteen and such
23:45
a big slate yesterday. But he's just such a good point per minute guy
23:48
that I think I overlooked him a bit. That was one thing I was
23:51
kicking myself a little bit. But man, all of these guys on the
23:55
nets talk about chalk. This is where the game people are gonna go to.
23:59
Sharpe's gonna mega mega Dennis Smith Junior, Trendon Wafford, Royce O'Neal McColl,
24:04
Bridges, cam Thomas is gonna get some ownership all those guys. People
24:08
are gonna come to the Nets for value. However, let's say Giannis is
24:11
out, Let's say some of these other q ta's you're out later, then
24:15
he just everyone's value at the point or at this point, and everyone's a
24:19
good play. So the Nets guys right now, how do you look at
24:22
them? If like Jannis was out, Compare the Middletons of the world to
24:26
Bridges. Brooke Lopez had a loaded center position. Talk about if then's with
24:32
Jannis. Yeah, so that was gonna be the first thing I said about
24:34
this. The line feels like it should be wider, if you honest,
24:38
we're playing. So maybe maybe he does get the knot up and makes a
24:42
ton of sense with the Nets gonna be out without a ton of their main
24:47
rotation pieces, so they're probably just looking for a spot to give him the
24:49
night off tonight makes a ton of sense. But if he's in, I
24:53
mean, it's a really good matchup for him. Was a lot tougher with
24:56
Nick Clarkson in the lineup, but he's gonna be out obviously. Giannis,
25:00
in the same matchup went for thirty six, twelve and three, and he'll
25:03
be in a big spot with the nets gonna be pretty thin defensively, especially
25:08
defending the interior. So I think that he would be really strong spend up.
25:11
But if he's out, Lillard gonna demand all the usage. I don't
25:18
know what the I'm pretty sure his like usage numbers with giants are off the
25:21
floor, like it's like thirty five thirty six plus. So he's just gonna
25:23
have the ball in his hands a ton. He's gonna be taking a ton
25:26
of shot. It's gonna be distributing nine K's a really strong price tech for
25:30
him too. If you honest were to be out, Middleton is good either
25:34
way. His minutes limit seems to be off. He got up to thirty
25:37
three minutes and back to back games, so I think he's in play even
25:41
if he honest is out or in. Obviously, if he's out, gonna
25:44
be a much better play will project really well, gonna be pretty chalky,
25:48
but I think that it's probably pretty good chalk. He's uh, He's always
25:52
been a really solid fantasy producer, really good scores. I think that he'll
25:55
have a ton of upside at six point four K. Would really like him
25:59
in that range. And then yeah, we always like playing Bobby Portis and
26:03
Brook Lopez. If you honest is out, Bobby is going to be really
26:06
popular. Five point five k will be tough to get away from. He's
26:08
going to be a strong value. Yeah, I mean it's not I don't
26:12
really have anything groundbreaking to say. We know how to how to attack the
26:15
bucks with the honest out, it's going to be a ton of value.
26:18
And if he's in, he's a really good play on the net side.
26:23
Yeah, Darren Sharp and Dennis Smith Junior likely to get the start here,
26:26
and they're both really strong values. I'll definitely have a ton of them in
26:30
my twenty to max tonight for sure. Behind them, though, it looks
26:36
like Trenton Watford will be the backup four or five ish. They have Harry
26:41
Giles too, so they'll probably mix in both those guys for some backup center
26:45
minutes if you want to play the blowout angle. I think Harry Giles makes
26:48
a ton of sense our money, Brooks, Jayalen Will Jalen Wilson, Will
26:52
Bote, We'll all get some uh some extra garbage time minutes. But I'll
26:56
play this game as it's going to be competitive, so that would get me
26:57
on guys like Michael Bridges camp Time. Yeah, I hope that camp Thomas
27:03
kind of comes in lower owned, but I don't. I doubt he will.
27:07
It's like Michael's he might a little bit. Rage is so loaded with
27:11
the Philly guys, like in Middleton. If Jannis is out, not low,
27:15
but relative to the slate, like all these guys are good plays.
27:18
At the end of the day, it's late, it's crazy, so you
27:21
might get them a little And people were tilted him yesterday and stuff. So
27:25
yeah, yeah, I would be fine going right back to camp Thomas.
27:30
I mean this is We've been attacking the Bucks with guards all season long.
27:33
So I don't really understand why people are afraid of him. Like I get
27:37
it, he's had some bad games in some really good spots. But we're
27:41
talking about no Spencer Dinwood, he know, Kim cam Johnson, no Nick
27:45
Klaxon. I mean, that's a ton of shots and a ton of usage
27:48
to go around. He could be the you know, the lead ball handler.
27:52
It's gonna be him and Dennis Smith Junr that are gonna be taking the
27:55
ball up a ton and we know that he's not afraid to afraid to chuck
27:57
it, gonna have Malik Easley or Damian Lillard on him. So I think
28:03
that he's got huge upside in this matchup and I will definitely have a ton
28:07
of him. I'll be bumping him a ton in in my runs for sure.
28:11
But yeah, Michale good good tag as well. Seven point four K
28:15
A little bit cautious on him in a back to back. He got up
28:18
to forty minutes last time, I believe, and didn't play that well in
28:22
a good matchup, in the same matchup that he crushed. But yeah,
28:26
I mean he's he's going to demand a ton of usage and he's projecting really
28:30
well right now, so obviously he's going to be a good play I don't
28:33
really see the Royce O'Neil love that much. Five point one K. We
28:37
know what type of player is that he is. He's going to be probably
28:40
the fourth or fifth option on offense. Could definitely get you know, he's
28:44
been involved as a rebounder in a passer this year a lot more when he
28:48
gets the minutes. But I would be a get fine getting away from him.
28:52
I would much rather just play Trenton Wofford at seventeen hundred cheaper and allowed
28:56
me to get up to some of these studs like Luca if he's in,
28:59
or Shake Gill, just those type of guys. But yeah, it's I
29:03
think the starters are really important and definitely got to keep an eye on the
29:07
Jannis news. Yeah, so I didn't even really touch on it. If
29:11
Yanni's plays, I still don't think the ownership will really get to him too
29:15
much, like the Scottie Barnes range, the Siakam, the Tobias Is,
29:18
the Maxi's. I think they're such strong plays for cheaper that he could get
29:22
overlooked a bit. And I mean, you couldn't ask for a better spot.
29:25
If this game stays close, you play all the nets. I mean,
29:29
Gianni's I think absolutely smashes that relatively low ownership for this late. So
29:33
that's interesting, obviously very important news. Yeah, Cam Thomas, though,
29:37
look at the usage thirty two, thirty one, thirty two thirty or twenty
29:41
four, thirty one, thirty five, thirty six thirty two. Like the
29:45
Dude Chucks. We know that, so obviously those guys the score independent players,
29:49
the floor is always lower, but man, he's when he gets the
29:53
ball, you know it's going up and he can get hot. You mentioned
29:56
Milieue Beasley or Dame on them is you can't ask for better matchups there.
30:00
So I'm definitely good going back to cam Thomas. And I do think Bridges
30:04
probably gets more ownership right in that range. Tobias right in that range as
30:08
well. So definitely good with cam Thomas. And But like I'm gonna probably
30:14
ask you that, I'm gonna ask you the question. You're probably gonna say
30:15
what I say, how many is too many? I don't really think there's
30:18
an answer. If I had four on my team, I would be fine
30:22
with that. Is there any guys you'd group away like a Sharp? Watford?
30:26
They can both play four in the five though, Hey, especially if
30:29
Giannis does play, they're gonna need their size. Maybe if you're honest,
30:33
I mean you can still go Bobby Brooke in the bucks. So anyone do
30:36
group away on that team? Uh? Now, I'd be fine with Watford
30:40
and and Sharp, especially because Watford has power forward eligibility. I think you'd
30:45
probably want to be Max one. Well, I don't even think you should
30:49
do Max one Giles in Sharp either, because Giles is three k so if
30:53
they're splitting those center minutes down the middle, you're talking about a seven point
30:56
seven k center for forty eight minutes. No, I don't think there's really
31:00
any groupings you need to you need to focus on in this one. I
31:04
would probably just just say, like, I don't think I want more than
31:08
five. Yeah, Mike was probably the number. Yeah, I agree even
31:12
on this lane, Like, if I got five, I'd be fine with
31:15
it because this late's so loaded, though, I think more more than not,
31:18
my teams will probably be in a three range. If I get up
31:22
to four, I'm totally good with that too. And yeah, I mentioned
31:25
it very briefly, but if Giannis is out, brook Lopez is another strong
31:27
play. I know Sean ve talked a little revenge as well. What was
31:32
he like the leading score in like Brooklyn's franchise history or something or something crazy
31:37
like that is Brook Lopez. I know that was kind of back in the
31:40
day, But no, Jannis just means all those guys Bobby Brook and someone
31:45
could correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought there was a crazy stat
31:47
for brook on the nets. Yeah, this game, Janna's huge news monitor
31:52
starters the nets can go a lot of different ways, but already resting three
31:56
main guys. You're gonna want some some exposure to this game. My favorite,
32:00
I think Dennis Smith in a vacuum. Assume he does start at the
32:05
at the one and then Sharp at the five, but I think those are
32:08
the two most popular. Any favorites for you, Definitely Sharp and Well,
32:15
I'll say Cam Thomas. I think he's my favorite playing in this game,
32:17
but definitely the values Sharp and Dennismith Junr gonna be in a lot of my
32:22
lineups together. But yeah, I love the spot for Cam Thomas here tonight.
32:25
Love it. Three games down, three games ago, two at eight
32:29
pm Eastern, one at eight thirty pm Eastern. Again, Boomer did update
32:32
those projections. They will be updated through the night. Injury news always hits.
32:37
They are updated as always if there changes to the cash report Core report.
32:42
Like Jalen Smith yesterday he was starting. I thought he was a musting
32:45
cash, so he got on the yellow on the cash reports. Always make
32:49
sure to keep refreshing the contents projections, et cetera. And again monthly,
32:54
six month, annual packages all do include the Discord weekly. We do have
32:59
as well. Twenty dollars a week that does not include the discord, though,
33:02
make sure to use promo comeo if you do join. Three games left.
33:07
Next game on the slates Phoenix Sons Houston Rockets two twenty six total.
33:12
Phoenix is favored by three. Nothing new on the Phoenix side. Bradley Deal
33:15
is still out. On the Houston side, Dylan Brooks is out, got
33:19
hurt yesterday. Tarry Easton is questionable. Looking at this game in terms of
33:23
ownership, I think relative like cumultive ownership. This is the lowest own game
33:29
on the slates. Sengoon and Nurkic Nurkic is playing, he is back on
33:34
this game are my favorite plays. But Center's just so loaded. It's a
33:38
contrarian spend to get different at a center. You spend up when most people
33:43
are spending down. Thoughts on that, and then I don't know, KD
33:46
Book van Vliet. We have enough value on the slates you can get to
33:51
those guys that I think will be a little overlooked, Like if you Honest
33:53
is out, everyone's going. Dame Scottie Barnes already looks really good. You're
33:58
talking Luca with him being quable, like I mean, I think these guys
34:02
whatever happens on the slate, whatever happens with the injury news, are gonna
34:06
stay low all. Can you make a case as a conturion span talk about
34:08
those centers. Yeah, I mean, on paper, it's a really tough
34:13
matchup for these Suns. The Rockets are one of the top defenses in the
34:15
league, and on top of that, the Suns have been really struggling offensively
34:21
right now. But not having Dylan Brooks in the lineup is going to be
34:23
a big boost for Devin Booker. For sure. We know that Brooks is
34:27
one of the better on ball defenders or just overall defenders in the league.
34:30
Mix things tough for opposing players, But yeah, I mean, this is
34:35
a there's gonna be a I think that's a big bounce back spot for Booker
34:37
here. They'll probably the Rockets probably slide in one of Tari Easton if he's
34:44
in, or Aaron Holliday to get the Booker assignment, but should be fine
34:49
for him. He's going to need to play huge minutes. I don't think
34:51
that he's the crazy spend up. Probably be pretty low owned tonight, I
34:54
think so. I don't mind him in nine point six K. I can't
34:59
get to Kevin Durananon now. Just for one, he's going to see a
35:01
tough matchup Jabari Smith Junior, really really solid wing defender, and he just
35:06
hasn't really shown much upside lately. It's just he's got to get you forty
35:09
to forty plus real life points to start to access a ceiling at nine point
35:15
five K. Much rather prefer some of the other options, like Maxi for
35:19
cheaper, Scottie Barnes for cheaper in a better matchup. So I'm fine getting
35:25
away from KD. Nurkic is semi interesting, but seven point two K is
35:30
a pretty expensive price tag to pay. He probably need to play a good
35:35
amount of minutes here. With just how bad Drew Eubanks played when he entered
35:38
the starting lineup, and Jamezi Mitt, who will be pretty undersized as a
35:42
center going against Alprin sing Guns, I would assume that Nurkic is gonna somewhat
35:45
mirror alpron sing God's minutes for the defense in the size. So seven point
35:51
two K is not the craziest price tag to pay. He'll come in with
35:53
no ownership, but I think there's better spots. Grayson Allen going to be
35:59
the forgotten man on the Sun side. Offensively, he's been one of their
36:01
most consistent role players all season long, had a really big game on Christmas.
36:07
Rockets are a bit more vulnerable to three point shooters if there was a
36:10
hole of poke in their defense, but not by much. But he's He's
36:14
an okay option at five point seven k in that same range as the og
36:16
and and Nobi's of the world. Be not a ton of interest in the
36:21
Rockets or the Sun side outside of Devin Booker on the Rockets side, much
36:24
more interest Seng Gun just been fucking smashing lately. Excuse me language, but
36:29
back to back games of sixty five You know, guy, I say excuse
36:31
not language unless you get kicked off of YouTube and then he got to go
36:35
to them with tambo and ope and explain. Yeah, I'll explain to the
36:38
bosses if that happens. But yeah, he's just been smashing with the sixty
36:42
five plus and back to back games. This is a fine matchup for him
36:45
too, versus Nurkic, who is not that good of a defender. Suns
36:47
are a pretty bad interior defense and his usage starting to tick up again.
36:53
Seems like he got pretty motivated after getting benched a couple of games ago.
36:57
So eight point four k really solid price tag for Goon. I think that
37:00
I'm in the Fred van Fleet side here, though I think I prefer him
37:05
slightly more eight point one k. The Suns have just been getting torched lately
37:09
by opposing point guards. He definitely is losing some usage to Sengoon, but
37:15
his minutes are going to be really high in a close game, I think
37:19
he could definitely put up a big boy score here at eight point one K,
37:22
so I like him a lot and outside outside of the main two,
37:25
I think Jabari Smith and Jalen Green's price sites are getting a little bit too
37:29
high right now for their production. Jabbar has been playing great this year,
37:31
but seven point five K is a little bit too much for me. If
37:37
Tory Easton is in, and I mean if he's in, he's a good
37:39
play regardless, just going to be filling in a lot of minutes for Dylan
37:44
Brooks. But he did get downgraded to questionable with the same leg injury,
37:47
and it's a back to back, so I would not be surprised to see
37:50
him sit. I think if he sits, then Aaron Holliday probably going to
37:53
slide it to the starting lineup. I don't know if he's really that good
37:57
of a value though, I would much rather for Aaron Holliday if Fred van
38:01
Fleet were to be out. Just don't think that there's a ton of usage
38:05
to go around to Aaron Holliday, But you know, that would probably open
38:08
up some more minutes for Jayshaunte to Amon Thompson been playing a little bit more
38:14
lately as well, got up to only had twelve minutes last game, but
38:17
it seems like they're trying to get him some more minutes. You know,
38:21
the rookie pick from the last season, the last draft. So I think
38:23
that he's he's an option, not a great option, but he's an option.
38:28
I think I would much rather prefer jashon set though, if tar Eastan
38:30
were to be out. But really, what that would just do is it
38:34
would just elevate Jabari Smith's minute ceiling, I think. But yeah, I'm
38:37
just looking for mostly for Fred van Fleet and Singoon in this matchup, and
38:42
then slight interest in Devin Booker. Yeah, I see a lot of the
38:45
same Singoon. Like I mentioned it before, someone said singun to flip the
38:49
build. I do like it there's enough value. Center is completely loaded,
38:52
though you probably like if I'm playing Singu and I want a fifty spot because
38:55
I think sharp bomba read if you honest is out broke, I think Center,
39:00
you you have to get right today. But Singwin has been smashing Nurkic
39:05
any minutes restrictions. It was personal that he was out the past two games,
39:08
so I expect him to come back full force, full minutes. I
39:14
want to know titles drinking always water over here, same old, same old,
39:17
Richie smalls, what's going on? And then I learned something new.
39:22
Rio So Lopez is confirmed the all time leading scorer. So I don't like
39:25
this. Dude, look what happens. Ohh, I don't know what's going
39:30
I don't know what's going on. Man, I don't know if I have
39:32
access to that because I'm not on. Oh but that's pretty good. Yeah,
39:37
I don't know, man, he said right to the dome. Yeah
39:39
that was that was pretty geek. So this is definitely the lowest total ownership
39:44
in this game. And I think, regardless of the news, even if
39:46
Tari Easton was out, which midday down grade back to back, could totally
39:51
see that it really does not move the needle for anyone like Javari Smith at
39:54
seven five now is too much on this slate for me. I don't even
39:59
know how much of bump Stingoon gets. I think he's a great play.
40:01
Regardless you didn't have as much interest in KD. I'll tell you on that.
40:06
I'll lean book with you. I usually do lean Book over KD,
40:08
but I so much refer Scottie. If Jannis is out, it's the Dane
40:13
Show stuff like that. So yeah, pretty much for me, Seingoon Book
40:17
is a contrarian spender bus is how I see it. But six games make
40:21
it five in this one. Injury news is key in the NBA, and
40:24
this is the one game with very little injury news. Two games left on
40:30
the slate, New York Knicks OKC thunder two forty total. OKC is favored
40:35
by three. On the New York side, we have Mitch rob Is out,
40:38
jeredko Sims is out, so same old, same old Hartenstein. We'll
40:43
continue to start on the OKC side. Nothing new for injuries. I mean
40:47
kind of like last game on a slate where there's a lot of injury news,
40:52
these two games don't have much injury news, so I think it's gonna
40:54
be relatively low owned. SGA, Julius Randall, Jalen bruns In my favorites
41:00
Contrarian Spens on this slate chat, I mentioned I'm a little bit yesterday at
41:06
a loaded center position. Thoughts on him Barrett Quickly Hartenstein at another center position.
41:12
I don't know, I need you to help me out a little bit
41:14
because I'm really just seeing Patrarian Spens in this one, and I'm good with
41:17
all Randall Brunton SGA. I would definitely max. I don't know. We
41:22
talked about not making rules, but on a slate like this, I'm not
41:24
sure I want Randall Brunton. Maybe if I do, I just want to
41:29
get someone on the OKC side. Thoughts on that, thoughts on this game,
41:31
Yeah, I agree with that for sure. I think if you're playing
41:34
both of Brunson and Randall, you want to get into this game as a
41:37
full game stack. I mean, it is a pretty big point total.
41:40
I'm kind of struggling to see why it's so high, because yeah, okay,
41:45
see, I mean their top six pace, top six offensive rating,
41:50
and top six different defensive rating, and the Knicks are a slower paced team.
41:53
Bottom four pace and they're a top ten defense. I kind of see
41:58
this game playing out more defensively, but and and kind of being solwer paced.
42:01
Just with how the the Knicks play. They don't really love to get
42:04
on transition. They're more of a setup and half court type of offense.
42:09
And the Knicks defense. We mentioned it before with Mitchell Robinson out they were
42:15
struggling a little bit, but they've kind of they've leveled out a lot more.
42:19
Hertstein not as bad of a defender as I think. I mean,
42:22
I don't know if he gets credit for being a bad defender, but he's
42:24
he's a pretty solid defender. And obviously TODJ. Gibson's always been a pretty
42:28
solid defender in his whole career. Even as old as he is right now,
42:31
he's still still put in work and their defense is definitely leveled out a
42:36
lot more so. I kind of struggle to see upside in this game.
42:39
But talking it through, this is a really bad matchup for Jalen Brunson.
42:45
I am totally fine getting away from him, much better options. Much rather
42:49
pay for two hundred more for Maxi or five hundred less for Fred van Fleet.
42:53
He's going to see a ton of lou Dort and Case and Wallen,
42:55
Case and Wallace on defense should make it pretty tough on him, so I'm
43:00
kind of fine getting away from him. Randall has the better matchup between him
43:05
and Brunson, but still not easy either. Jalen Williams is a very solid
43:07
wing defender, and chet Holmgren has shown a really good capability of being able
43:13
to defend down low, even with him being so undersized as a center.
43:16
He's a really solid shot blockers. I think that they have enough bodies to
43:20
throw at Randall to make it tough on him, so I kind of have
43:22
less interest in him as well. I much rather get to Scottie Barnes or
43:27
Pascal Siakam for cheaper I don't mind Hardstein if he's like your last man in
43:31
five point seven K. There are a lot of center positions, especially in
43:35
that same range, with you know, Jaka Pertle, Daniel Gafford, Brook
43:39
Lopez to Bobby Portis if Giannis is out. I mean, even in the
43:45
last game, Derek Lively is pretty interesting. But yeah, Heartstein, this
43:49
is a better matchup for centers against Oka See, but still not the best.
43:53
They do give up a ton of rebounds, so maybe we see Hartstein
43:57
just have a big rebounding game and access a ceiling in that way, but
44:00
not a ton of interest on the knick side. I think that Quickly should
44:05
make your playerpool. They've been Tibodau has been talking about how good he's been
44:09
playing off the bench and kind of struggling to find minutes for him with Dante
44:14
DiVincenzo out there too, So if you're at all keeping Devincenzo in Quickly in
44:19
your pool, you should be max one of those guys because they eat into
44:21
each other. But I don't think Quickly is the craziest play at four point
44:23
eight K, pretty cheap price side for him and on the OKC side pretty
44:30
much just canna be Shay or bus for me. He is. You know,
44:34
he's been crushing lately, fifty five plus in four straight games, I
44:39
believe, not the toughest of matchups going against Stevencenzo and probably a little bit
44:44
of Quentin Grimes when he's out there, So I think he could definitely have
44:47
a big game here. And yeah, he's just a contray and spend up
44:52
OOPX right now, he's coming in with less than ten percent ownership and it
44:55
probably would come up a ton if Giannis is out or if Luca is out.
45:00
Those guys are questionable and there really won't be a ton of spind up
45:02
options. I think that he's interesting either way, but he'll gain a ton
45:07
more interest if those guys were out. And yeah, I don't really see
45:10
much else on the OKC side personally, so this I know where I'm jumping
45:16
a little ahead. But do you have any lean on Luca because the last
45:21
game of the nights on the Island, it's only thirty minutes. But assuming
45:24
we don't get that news, like these games eight, these two APM Eastern
45:29
games by far way worse in the first three games and then Luca dmitch questionable
45:35
late. But like if we knew Luca was playing, he'd be very,
45:38
very very popular. I mean, the dude just went up for ninety seven
45:42
on twenty five shot attempts, like one of the most efficient game games I've
45:45
ever seen. It was nuts. But if you have them like I want,
45:50
and I don't have the news like I want, other pieces at least
45:52
in the APM or eight thirty games, and they're way worse than the other
45:55
place, I know, I'm kind of jumping ahead. I don't really love
45:59
this game too much, But you have a lean on Luke at all.
46:01
Tokyo thinks he plays. I if I didn't say lean, I think he
46:05
does. I mean he got the day off. He's coming off a complete
46:07
nuke. Why not? I mean, but I don't know. I mean
46:13
it. Yeah, he probably does play, but I would not be surprised
46:16
to see him sit because they are on a back to back. Tomorrow they
46:21
play the tim Wolves, which is a big game in the Western Conference.
46:23
This is an Eastern Conference team, So I think if there were ever a
46:27
time to give him a night off, it would make sense tonight. But
46:31
yeah, I don't I don't have a strong lean. I mean, he
46:32
played forty four minutes two nights ago, so he's been kind of banged up
46:37
too. He's had a lot of lower body injuries this year, been battling
46:42
with like a calf injury, with a knee injury, a bunch of different
46:44
injuries. So it would make sense to give him the night off. But
46:46
I really don't have a strong lean. Yeah. The reason I bring it
46:51
up is because if I do have Luca in my lineups, I want I
46:55
want to know a swap that I can have, and that swap would probably
46:59
require some cheat piece. So I'm not baked, or I'm not leaving three
47:02
thousand on this on the table and just dropping down to someone else. You're
47:07
giving up so much. So Yeah, as far as this game though,
47:12
I mean, these games, the first three games are so much better than
47:15
these a PM Eastern games with the lack of news you take. Yeah,
47:17
touch on that tough match up for Brunson. I'm I just always love Brunson.
47:22
He's gonna be low owned Tyreese. Yesterday someone was mentioned it earlier about
47:25
Houston Hiond Motman. Tyreese absolutely nuked him as well. But I much prefer
47:30
MAXI I much prefer Scottie Barnes. Again, if you're honest, is out
47:35
it's Dame so many other better plays. I think SGA is really interesting,
47:39
SGA and Giannis. If Jannis does play an SGA and we don't get that
47:44
Luca news, I think I'll probably have more of them than Luca, just
47:47
because man, I would be tilted if I just have Luca left and he's
47:52
ruled out, and I just there isn't many other places to go. D
47:54
Mitch also question on that one. So yeah, one game left on the
47:59
slate. Again, we'll tell on that news what's going on, Jacob,
48:01
what's going on? Danny kid lining and here Evan in here as well.
48:06
Two hundred and sixty watching. I gotta say I just refreshed. Seventy likes.
48:10
Take one second like Tampball likes to say, call a timeout, thirty
48:15
second timeout, one second hit that thumbs up hit, that subscribe but helps
48:20
us out a ton. We greatly appreciate it. One two A right,
48:23
We're good to go. Last game of the slates, a thirty pm easter
48:27
can't get yelled at by the bosses Cleveland, Cavaliers, Dallas and Avercks two
48:31
thirty one total. Dallas is favored by three huge injury news in this one.
48:37
We touched on Dallas side. Luca questionable, Tim Hardaway is also questionable,
48:42
Josh Green is questionable, Kyrie is still out. On the Cleveland side,
48:46
d Mitch is questionable with an illness, Kars Slaverda is questionable, Mobley's
48:52
out various, Garland's out huge huge news. I will say, if Luca's
48:58
in and d Mitch's in, I think it's really just Luca that I want
49:00
in this game like the other games, the other value is so much better.
49:05
You didn't mention Derek Lively, so that's interesting at a completely loaded center
49:08
position, so he'lle his ownership has to be capped. Jared Allen without mobile,
49:15
I'm not sure I need that seven point three K. I think I'd
49:19
rather sing going if I'm spending up or saving Dante xem you mentioned him.
49:24
I don't know, man, think thoughts on if you do have Luca in
49:28
your lineup, do you need someone else? Do you need two other pieces?
49:31
What are you doing there? We already talked about Lucas status. What
49:35
are your thoughts? D Mitche with an illness and break down this one.
49:38
Yeah, I think if you have Luca, you probably want another person in
49:42
this game, just just so you can give yourself some more places to swap.
49:46
You know, maybe you can get from Luca and Derek Jones Junior to
49:51
Donovan Mitchell and Tim Hardaway or Dante Exum or something like that, just so
49:57
you have a couple couple of ways to go about it. You don't want
50:00
to just be forced to play. I mean, I guess it wouldn't be
50:04
the worst thing if you go just straight line from Donovan or from Luca to
50:07
Donovan. You're leaving around two K leftover and salary, but you're still still
50:12
a ton of upside in that lineup with Donovan. But yeah, injury wise,
50:16
I do think Donovan is going to be back tonight, had a good
50:20
amount of days off. I think he hasn't played in like over a week
50:22
too, so packed him to play, yeah, And I don't know if
50:28
he if he's going to be a full go or not. I mean,
50:30
I think he's returned a lot of times from these types of things and just
50:34
gone straight back into getting thirty six plus minutes, So I would assume he's
50:37
a full go, and if he is, I think this is a pretty
50:39
good spot for him. He's a ton of usage and his assist percentages up
50:45
with all these guys. With the Mobile and Garland off the court, Kris
50:50
LeVert likely going to be limited to if he's in, so I think that
50:52
he's gonna just have a ton of usage going his way. The matchup is
50:55
not too bad for him either. Probably get a lot of Dante X on
51:00
him, I would guess in the starting lineup, and that should be a
51:01
matchup. He should definitely have the advantage in Mavericks are struggling with their interior
51:07
defense right now too, also struggling with their transition defense, and Donovan is
51:12
one of the best transition scores in the leagues. I think he's in a
51:14
really good spot here nine point nine K. Outside of him, though,
51:19
if he is in, I think that all these other Mavericks or these Cavaliers
51:22
are kind of out of play. They're two priced up. Yes, I
51:28
would probably be off of all these guys, and that's yeah, pretty much
51:31
just Donovan or Bust on the Dallas side or on the Cleveland side, and
51:36
then on the Dallas side. If Luca is out, going to have a
51:39
huge value spot here, gonna see a ton of ownership, probably go to
51:43
Jaden Hardy, assuming he would start. I would like down tex him a
51:47
lot if Luke was out, because he's going to be the lead ball handler
51:51
most likely. But yeah, I don't really know. It's tough to break
51:55
down because I don't know if Luca is in or out. If he's in,
51:59
just it's Luca. I have a lot of interest in Derrick Lively too,
52:01
is a low owned centerpiece at five point five K. Him and Luca
52:05
have a really good two man game with their pick and roll. He's been
52:07
playing really good this year, and Jason Kidd has talked him up a bunch,
52:10
saying how important he is to the team, So I think he would
52:13
be a good option. I don't mind Tim Hardway Junior Derk Jones junior either,
52:17
regardless of Luca's status. Do you think Hardaway plays? I mean it's
52:23
an illness, so I feel like illness tags Midday down Grade are usually out
52:28
right, so I don't know except who was it Andrew Wiggins? Like last
52:32
week it was not only midday downgrade, the site already started and then he
52:36
was playing. But yeah, keep going. I do like this, though,
52:39
have a plan, and this is very good Luca Lively if you have
52:43
both if out Mitchell Jared Allen, and Allen's a fine clicks not the most
52:47
sexy, but I mean it's better than leaving three thousand on the table,
52:52
So I do like that. And for always think ahead. You mentioned Hardy
52:54
that Hardaway like you would want Dallas guys. I mean we just saw it
52:59
last week. It didn't necessarily work out when Luca was out, but that'd
53:02
be another great spot for Valley. Go ahead though, keep going, Yeah,
53:07
I mean, yeah, I think we know how to how to attack
53:09
it. With Luca out, you're gonna be looking to Derek Jones Jr.
53:13
Jayden Hardy, Grant Williams. We get a boost. Also, Josh Green
53:16
is questionable too, so he may be back. I think that would that
53:21
probably takes away some of the upside minutes from from Derek Jones Junior. So
53:27
that's definitely interesting with them getting more healthy with him back. We've been seeing
53:31
Derek Jones Junior, Grant Williams played a ton of minutes lately. But yeah,
53:36
I think that Uh yeah, I don't know. It's tough to break
53:38
down with without the news, but I just have a plan. Yeah,
53:42
I have a plan. Definitely follow the projections is how I would attack it.
53:46
Yeah, I'm definitely still debating on what to do, and I don't
53:51
I don't feel comfortable just having Luca in my lineup is the only piece in
53:55
this last game or I mean it's thirty minutes, so a thirty Those two
54:00
other games are eight pm Eastern. Hopefully we get it before lock. Hopefully
54:04
they're nice. Who knows about that, but those eight pm Eastern games are
54:07
tough too, And just say they get it to us like thirty one minutes
54:10
before, right at the eight pm Eastern lock time. Have a plan at
54:15
the end of the day, and for had one right there, the two
54:17
v two swap, And of course, if Luca's out, I mean,
54:21
if Luca's hard Hardaway's out, like I mean Jaden Hardy, they're gonna need
54:24
scoring. So but there's so much good value earlier. There's still if Yanni's
54:30
plays, there's Sga, there's Scottie Barnes. Like at the end of the
54:32
day, I think you can ignore the whole spot. But if Luca plays
54:36
and puts up a ninety piece, you're obviously gonna want him as well.
54:39
So have a plan, is how I'm approaching that? Or the only really
54:43
stuff that we can say in this one two v two three D three swaps
54:47
like that? Any final thoughts my men on the slate, I mean,
54:51
six gamers on a Wednesday, I think we did pretty good job breaking it
54:54
down. A lot of injury news that we already have with good value,
54:58
and it can only get better with some these dogs that they are ruled out.
55:01
Yeah, No, I mean there's a there's a lot of really good
55:04
loan options tonight that I'm excited to play. I think that we've been doing
55:07
a good job of pinpointing some of these lowan pieces and they've been, you
55:12
know, they've been paying off for us a lot. So I like this
55:15
slate a lot tonight. Yeah. I like these these more condensed slot times
55:20
too. We'll make it a little bit tougher for me with getting the showdown
55:23
stuff up with the last game thirty minutes after the five PM game, but
55:29
definitely I think we did a good job breaking it down, so I'm excited
55:31
for the slate for sure. Yeah. Rio mentioned the Showdown stuff today.
55:36
Definitely harder with that Luca news and stuff, so it might be abbreviated,
55:39
just little bullet points and stuff, but it'll be up as always, he
55:43
lets everybody and knowing discord projections updated throughout the night, core reports, cash
