  Speaker 3: What's going on? Man? How is your week? Did you

  Speaker 3: come close to ship and anything this week?
• 1:08
  Speaker 4: Nothing in NBA just yet, But NFL was pretty solid
• 1:11
  Speaker 4: last night. I was heavy overweight on Higgins and had
• 1:15
  Speaker 4: a lot of Christian Kirk as well. See, it was
• 1:18
  Speaker 4: a profitable night, I guess technically, but I ended up
• 1:21
  Speaker 4: winning like one hundred bucks off of as much money
• 1:24
  Speaker 4: as I played. But yeah, I've been a been good week.
• 1:25
  Speaker 4: I always like talking to the NBA Cup. This is
• 1:28
  Speaker 4: definitely the biggest NBA Cup week to date because you
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: got a lot of moving pieces with the point differential
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: and records coming into play for this one. So there's
• 1:37
  Speaker 4: definitely some really big games on this slate. Yeah, my
• 1:41
  Speaker 4: week's going good. How's your week going, yeah, going good.
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: No travel for me this week, so I got a

  Speaker 2: home game, We got some Thanksgiving action next week. Just
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: one thing to note, Rio and out. We'll be back
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: here next Thursday, normal time Friday afternoon, four pm Eastern,
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: So make sure you tune into that while you're watching
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: some Ego was Bears, we'll be breaking down the Friday
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: night game. But yeah, looking forward to breaking this one down.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: Let's say, hello us, some people in the chat. We
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: got our guy a little neck in here. Philly Fantom
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: as always, Matthew Cummings, what's going on? Matthew Para Bay,
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: Jason Turner, Nate de Minnesota Hallo wins Alot, Matthew.
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: Manning, Gaine Green, Uh, Dan Gonzalez hopefully I said your
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: name right, Dan? Eddie's in here? What's going on?
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: That is?
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: That?
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: Is that my boy Eddie Salazar getting his name up
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: in here. Hamm of Brios? What's uh ham of Brios?
• 2:32
  Speaker 5: She was?
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: I think he's a goosed to saying ham and Rio.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: Let's let's talk about this first one. We got the
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: uh Indiana Pacers up on the docket in Rio. I'll
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: tell you what they A lot of injuries there, uh
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: in there in Pacerland obviously, you know about you know
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: about Halliburton, you know that. Uh, you're missing many of
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: men over there, uh for the Pacers, and that's why
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: they're two and thirteen. My boy Miles Turner playing in
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: Milwaukee now, so they're missing a lot of pieces from
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: last year.
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: Taking on the Calves should be a blowout tonight.
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: We saw the Calves come up short against the Rockets
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: the other night. But Darius Garland is questionable, Jarrett Allen
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: is questionable on the Cleveland side, and then yeah, there's
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: a whole laundry list of folks out Nie Smith, Rampage, Jackson,
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: my boy Obi Top and so talk to me a
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: little bit about this game.
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: Pacers at the Cavaliers.
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I feel like the line is a little bit
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: too white here. I do think that Indy is getting
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: a little bit better as they get healthier. So I
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: think that there's a chance that they keep it close,
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: which would be great for fantasy purposes because Indy does
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: play fast and it is a pretty good matchup for Cleveland.
• 3:41
  Speaker 4: Also a pretty big game for Cleveland and the NBA Cup.
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: If they get a win here, then they'll be tied
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: with the Magic. Well, they have two wins, Magic of
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: the team that they're chasing right now, because the Magic
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: are the only other two to zero team in the
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: NBA Cup with a similar point differential. Loses one of
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: their last two NBA Cup games against Philly or Detroit,
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: which they definitely could, then Cleveland has a chance to
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: make it out of the wild Card and they're in
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: the East Group. So I do think that they'll play
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: this one pretty seriously because they definitely if they do
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: win and they went in a big way, that would
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: definitely help them. From a point differential standpoint, you just
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: kind of got to hope that Orlando loses one of
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: their last two games. I do think that Cleveland is
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: a team that does care about the NBA Cup. With
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: that being said, though the indie side is not super enticing,
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: I think that Bendick Matheren is probably the best option
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: at six point four K. He had a massive usage
• 4:38
  Speaker 4: rate in his first game back around forty percent, and
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: then that dropped a little bit last game, but still
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: sitting around twenty eight percent on the season and leading
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: the team in usage over.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: The last two games.
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: Don't really care too much about the matchup like Donovan,
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: Mitchell or Garland aren't that great of guard defenders. Cleveland
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: has done a pretty decent job defending guards, and their
• 4:56
  Speaker 4: rim defense is pretty solid, and Mathern's going to be
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: looking to get to the basket. So I would say
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: it's a sally below average matchup for him, but still
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: too cheap for a guy that has as much upside
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: as he does, because even in the beginning of the
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: season we saw him really smashing in a big way.
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: He came back and didn't skip a beat, really thirty
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: four minutes last game double digit rebounds, had a double double,
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: So he looks like the best option. But I do
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: have to mention Pascal Siakam at nine point one K
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: because it is a flow chart type of play. The
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: Cleveland Cavaliers are dead last in DVP against power forwards.
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: He's obviously power forward, so I do think that there
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: is a little bit of upside there if the game
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: is close. Wouldn't say that I love him as a
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: spend up because I think that he's probably better at
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: like eight point two K to eight K something like that,
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: and not really sure nine point one K is probably
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: so I want to pay for Sam when you have
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: Matherarin nem Hart, and TJ McConnell all taking away usage
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: from him. So probably just a max one spot for
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: Indy unless we use that. Like Jay Huff, who smashed
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: in a huge way last time out, is starting, I
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: don't think that they'll go to him this one because
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: the front court for Cleveland is pretty big, so I
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: think I'll probably stick with Isaiah Jackson. Well, he started
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: in the second half, so he didn't He didn't start
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: over Jackson, but he started in the second half, and
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: then the Cleveland side, I do like the matchup for
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: Donovan Mitchell regardless of Daris Garland returning. I think if
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: Garland is out it makes it a little bit better.
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: But even if he's in, I think he's totally fine.
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: He's going to have Andrewhard on him, who is a
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: good defender, but the Pacers leave him alone. They don't
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: really send a lot of help to him. So shows
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: why the Pacers are one of the worst teams from
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: a points per possession perspective against pick and roll guys.
• 6:30
  Speaker 4: Donovan Mitchell obviously looking to get to the basket as
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: well drive heavy guard. Pacers are bottom two in RIOM defense,
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: so It's a pretty good matchup for him, and like
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: I said, if they do run the minutes up here,
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: if he gets to like thirty six, he'd be a
• 6:41
  Speaker 4: really really strong option nine point three K. I'm not
• 6:44
  Speaker 4: going to go to mobile. I just don't think that
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: he's got the tournament winning upside. Has not really taken
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: a huge leap forward offensively. Still a good defender, but
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: not really impressing me on offense. I'm fine getting away
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: from him and probably everything else. I don't know if
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: I really want to mess with Jalen Tyson returning. He's
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: he was playing really well before getting injured, but we'll see.
• 7:05
  Speaker 4: He hasn't played in a few games, so they might
• 7:06
  Speaker 4: ease him in. Three point one K. Good price tag,
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: but I think I just like the guards in this one,
• 7:11
  Speaker 4: Mitchell Matherin, and then I think you can play Pascal Siakam.
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, except breakdown there and from the from the files.
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: If you learn something new every day, Rio, guess what
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: I've just found out.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: What's up?
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: It's the return of Gary bird Baby Garrison Matthews signing
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: with the Pacers yesterday. Let's get my guy Gary in
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: the game. All those injuries I just saw that's good
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: to know. Uh, don't play Gary Bird tonight, but give
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: him some time to get acclimated to that little carmel
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: Indiana weather and he'll be rocketing and rolling with the
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: best of them up there in Indianapolis. Yeah, I'm just
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: trying to think you had nothing else there. I got
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: excited about about Garrison.
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: So we'll move on to the next game.
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: Your boys, the Nets, I can't stand playing them in DFS.
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: Michael Porter Junior has been a bright spot this year,
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: though Clowney and Clact them in decent as well. Taking
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: all the Pacers. Still know Jason Tatum hasn't made a
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: season debut yet. But you got Derek White, you got
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: Jalen Brown, you got Pritchard. Talk to me a little
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: bit about this game, Nets another blowout potential fourteen and
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: a half points only slated to score one hundred and
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: four on the Nets side, and then you got the
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: Celtics slated to score one hundred nineteen.
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: Talking about this game Nets at the Celtics.
• 8:24
  Speaker 4: So from an NBA Cup perspective, this one probably has
• 8:26
  Speaker 4: the least appeal on the slate because I think that
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: Boston is a pretty long shot to get out of
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: their group and probably won't make it out of the
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: wild card either.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: They're one and one with a.
• 8:35
  Speaker 4: Minus twelve differential, already lost to Orlando, but they do
• 8:39
  Speaker 4: face Detroit in the last week, so they're really kind
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: of asking for Orlando to lose two games in a
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: row and then they also have to outscore them in
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: a pretty big way. Obviously, that could happen here against Boston.
• 8:51
  Speaker 4: They're nearly fifteen point favorites, so Vegas does project them
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: to win in a pretty big way. It is a
• 8:57
  Speaker 4: good matchup for Boston, but I do think that on
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: a slate like this with the NBA Cup in, you
• 9:02
  Speaker 4: kind of want to prioritize those games a little bit more.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: So.
• 9:05
  Speaker 4: I don't think that I'm going to get a ton
• 9:07
  Speaker 4: in this game. It's just a max one for Brooklyn
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: right now. I think if you're playing Claxon or MPJ,
• 9:13
  Speaker 4: you probably want to play it for the game to
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: be high scoring, close, which is probably not going to happen.
• 9:18
  Speaker 4: So I think I'm probably gonna have zero of those
• 9:20
  Speaker 4: guys tonight. And then the Boston side, I think that
• 9:23
  Speaker 4: Jaylen Brown, Derek White, Pritchard all really good options. I
• 9:26
  Speaker 4: think i'd sided with Prichard here at seven point five K,
• 9:29
  Speaker 4: starting to shoot the ball a little bit better, and
• 9:30
  Speaker 4: he has the added upside of kind of hitting all
• 9:34
  Speaker 4: the peripheral stats, so I think that he's my favorite option.
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: But I don't mind Pritchard either, because he's shooting the
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: ball really well right now, eighteen of thirty five in
• 9:44
  Speaker 4: three point field goals over his last three games, forty
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: plus DK points in each of those games, so I
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: think that he's pretty solid. I love the matchup with
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: Jaylen Brown, but I don't think that I want to
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: pay nine K for him in a game that doesn't
• 9:56
  Speaker 4: really mean much. And then Cada and Simons I think
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: can remain in your player. I loved the matchup for
• 10:01
  Speaker 4: Cada last time out. He was pretty solid from a
• 10:04
  Speaker 4: permanent standpoint, but did get into some foul trouble, so
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: I think the same reasons that I liked him last week,
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: I do our last game.
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: I like him here.
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: The nets are really weak, rim defense, really weak rebounding
• 10:14
  Speaker 4: team as well, so I could see him putting up
• 10:15
  Speaker 4: a double double, but not a ton of appeal in
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: this game. I think Derek White is pretty good, and
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: then everybody else's kind of average to below average.
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, except break down there. How does Brooklyn do guarding
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: the three pointer? Do you know that? I'll stop your head.
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: I think they're decent at that they're one of the
• 10:33
  Speaker 4: worst of Riom defenses. But let me I can pull
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: that up if you want to.
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, while you're looking that up, Gang Green said, he
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: thinks you meant White.
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: I don't.
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: I know you saw about Derek White, but I don't know.
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: What he's what he's I don't remember what I said.
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean I think you said, you know,
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: Pritchard Brown and then potentially White.
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: I don't know what said put in the check.
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: Gang Green. We'll try to get to it if we can.
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: But while Rio's looking that up, let's move over to
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: the next game. While you're looking that up, we got
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: the Wizards. Marvin Bagley the third, he is doubtful tonight.
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: Alexander sar is questionable taking on this Raptors team. Another
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: thirteen and a half point spread. Got a big boy total,
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: though not as big as the next one. We've got
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: a big boy total here though, two hundred and forty.
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: You know, we love picking on sinners when they're taking
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: on the Raptors. Both of the Wizard sinners are are
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: banged up right now, So do you have any interest
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: in these sinners taking on Yakob?
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: Do you have any interest.
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: In Barrett Barnes Ingram anybody that wizards at the Raptors.
• 11:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I looked at the nets numbers. It's nothing really crazy,
• 11:40
  Speaker 4: Like they're pretty much average to below average against the
• 11:43
  Speaker 4: three point three point shooters, So nothing too crazy sticks
• 11:46
  Speaker 4: out there. But yeah, this game definitely has a ton
• 11:48
  Speaker 4: of fantasy appeal just from a game environment standpoint. Always
• 11:51
  Speaker 4: like to pick on the Wizards whenever they're on the slate,
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: and then the Raptors do play up and pace these
• 11:56
  Speaker 4: are I think this is the second best pace matchup
• 11:59
  Speaker 4: on the slate with on the season.
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: You have.
• 12:05
  Speaker 4: Chica or sorry, Washington's fifth, and then Toronto they're up there.
• 12:11
  Speaker 4: I forget what their actual pace number is. This should
• 12:13
  Speaker 4: be a fast paced game. Toronto doesn't really have their
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: favorite to win this game, and they should win it
• 12:20
  Speaker 4: pretty easily. But they don't really need to go crazy
• 12:23
  Speaker 4: from a like a point differential standpoint, because if they
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: win this game and Indiana loses, which Vegas is projecting
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: to happen, then they'll clinch their their group, so you
• 12:32
  Speaker 4: don't really need to run their guys out there for
• 12:34
  Speaker 4: a ton of minutes unless the game were to be close.
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: But if it's like they're by.
• 12:37
  Speaker 4: Twenty in the fourth quarter, I think they might pull
• 12:39
  Speaker 4: the plug kind of soon. But with that being said,
• 12:42
  Speaker 4: it is a really good matchup for basically everybody on
• 12:45
  Speaker 4: that side. But I'll hit on Washington first because it
• 12:47
  Speaker 4: is probably the biggest Q tag on the slate at
• 12:49
  Speaker 4: least up to this point. With alex ar Listen question, well,
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: they ruled him out pretty early last time out, so
• 12:54
  Speaker 4: I think that it's probably a fifty to fifty chance
• 12:57
  Speaker 4: that he plays.
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: Hopefully we'll get word.
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: On in the one of the next injury reports in
• 13:02
  Speaker 4: the next fifteen thirty or forty five minutes, but I
• 13:05
  Speaker 4: would love whoever starts at center against Yaka Purtle. Really
• 13:08
  Speaker 4: good matchup. The Raptors have been pretty good defensively, one
• 13:11
  Speaker 4: of the hottest teams in the league. I think they've
• 13:13
  Speaker 4: won nine of their last ten, but they are a
• 13:16
  Speaker 4: bottom through bottom five rim defense, So it's a good
• 13:19
  Speaker 4: matchup for whoever it is that's going to start at
• 13:22
  Speaker 4: center over there. I think Vucevich Vukovic or I don't
• 13:26
  Speaker 4: know if it's Vuksevich or how you pronounce it, but
• 13:29
  Speaker 4: it's a weird spelling. I think either way, he's kind
• 13:32
  Speaker 4: of in play if Sar were to be in or out,
• 13:34
  Speaker 4: because I don't think that if Sar plays, they're going
• 13:36
  Speaker 4: to be giving him like thirty two minutes off of
• 13:37
  Speaker 4: the bat. I think they'll probably put him at like
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: twenty seven to twenty eight, and then they might run.
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: A little bit of small ball.
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: But if it's just full forty eight minutes between those
• 13:47
  Speaker 4: two at center, twenty is enough for Vukovich to hit
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: value at just three point two K. So I think
• 13:53
  Speaker 4: that both those guys are in play. Max one of
• 13:55
  Speaker 4: those two sally lean Vukovic, and then if he's starting,
• 13:59
  Speaker 4: I think he's probably the best value playing the slate.
• 14:01
  Speaker 4: I like Kaishawan George regardless, I don't think we're gonna
• 14:05
  Speaker 4: get him at the same ownership as we did last
• 14:07
  Speaker 4: time out.
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: Him and CJ.
• 14:08
  Speaker 4: McCollum are splitting the handling roles basically down the middle.
• 14:11
  Speaker 4: He kind of ran a little bit hot in the
• 14:13
  Speaker 4: last game with the potential assist. I think he had
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: eight potentials and finished with seven, so did run a
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: little bit hot there, but he's really good. I think
• 14:21
  Speaker 4: the matchup is tough though he should see Scotty Barnes,
• 14:23
  Speaker 4: but if Sar to be out, that's gonna be one
• 14:26
  Speaker 4: that I just kind of overlooked the matchup because his
• 14:28
  Speaker 4: role with Scotty or with Sarro off the court is
• 14:31
  Speaker 4: really good. All the numbers increase in a very meaningful way,
• 14:34
  Speaker 4: so I think that he'd be He's good regardless, but
• 14:36
  Speaker 4: could get really good if Star were to miss. And
• 14:38
  Speaker 4: I think CJ and Bla Coolibally are kind of just
• 14:41
  Speaker 4: fine at their price. Tag don't really love anything about
• 14:44
  Speaker 4: their matchup in particular that's run aside. There's a lot
• 14:47
  Speaker 4: to like here though the I think whoever, I'm not
• 14:51
  Speaker 4: sure who cool of Bali is going to be guarding,
• 14:53
  Speaker 4: but he's a really good defender us I think it's
• 14:55
  Speaker 4: going to be him on Brandon Ingram, and if if
• 14:58
  Speaker 4: it is that, then I would probably lean RJ. Barrett
• 15:01
  Speaker 4: as the better option between the two, because I think
• 15:03
  Speaker 4: that it is going to be either cool Bali on
• 15:05
  Speaker 4: Ingram or Barrett, and whoever he guards is a guy
• 15:08
  Speaker 4: that I kind of want to get off of because
• 15:09
  Speaker 4: he's done really good at limiting guys, and I think
• 15:13
  Speaker 4: that it will be Ingram, so that gets me unburied
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: a little bit more. But Scotty Barnes, Manual Quickly, and
• 15:17
  Speaker 4: Yaka Purle are my three favorite plays on the Toronto side,
• 15:20
  Speaker 4: Yaka Purle being number one. He's kind of the top
• 15:24
  Speaker 4: center playing the slave for me in a pretty big way.
• 15:26
  Speaker 4: Washington is the second worst team against centers from a
• 15:29
  Speaker 4: Fantasy points allowed perspective. Purtle has been playing a lot
• 15:32
  Speaker 4: of minutes as well, got it to like thirty two
• 15:34
  Speaker 4: ish in the last two games, top thirty five DK
• 15:37
  Speaker 4: points in four of his last five. The Washington just
• 15:40
  Speaker 4: giving up huge stat line to centers every single game.
• 15:42
  Speaker 4: So I think he's an amazing play at five point six.
• 15:45
  Speaker 4: And then I think if there was ever a time
• 15:48
  Speaker 4: for Scotty Barnes to hit in a really big way,
• 15:50
  Speaker 4: it's probably in this matchup. Washington's bottom two against power
• 15:54
  Speaker 4: forwards as well. We just saw Julius Ranald go off
• 15:56
  Speaker 4: for thirty two, ten and six, and I would say
• 15:58
  Speaker 4: that in terms of how they like Randall and Barnes
• 16:03
  Speaker 4: compare from like how they play, I.
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: Think it's kind of similar in some ways.
• 16:06
  Speaker 4: So I do think that he could replicate that that
• 16:09
  Speaker 4: type of performance. You kind of would want Washington and
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: keep it close if that were to happen, because I
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: don't know if they were really gonna be like pushing
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: them up for a ton of minutes if it's not close.
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: But I do love the matchup for him. I think
• 16:19
  Speaker 4: Quickly has been the guy that's just the most consistent
• 16:22
  Speaker 4: from minutes played, perspective played thirty eight minutes last game
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: forty one DK points. Really good matchup Washington's dead last
• 16:28
  Speaker 4: and DVP versus point guards, and they give up the
• 16:30
  Speaker 4: second most steals per game to opposing point guards. I
• 16:33
  Speaker 4: may it Quickly as averaging one and a half steals
• 16:35
  Speaker 4: per game this season. So love those guys. And then
• 16:37
  Speaker 4: I think you can play Sandro and Jamal Shed. I
• 16:41
  Speaker 4: would not pair Shed with Quickly, and I would not
• 16:44
  Speaker 4: pair Sandro with Yaka Pertle.
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: How many raptors is too many raptors in a tournament?
• 16:52
  Speaker 4: I feel like three is probably the most that you want.
• 16:54
  Speaker 4: And then if you're getting into three, I would imagine
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: you're expecting the game to remain close, so you probably
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: want to get a Washington piece in there. I'm normally
• 17:03
  Speaker 4: just max two of like the Barnes, Ingram, Barrett Quickly grouping,
• 17:07
  Speaker 4: because I think it's rare that more than two of
• 17:08
  Speaker 4: those four guys get there. So you could play like
• 17:11
  Speaker 4: Scotty Quickly and Pertle. I think they're all pretty strong
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: value plays at at their salaries, even like Barrett Quickly.
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: Purdle makes a lot of sense as well.
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so two of the four, then you got Pearl
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: and then do you have a preference of Sar versus George.
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: I understand different positions, different dollars, but let's say you're
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: stacking this game, do you have a preference between one
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: of those two.
• 17:37
  Speaker 4: I think it's gonna be George, because I do think
• 17:39
  Speaker 4: that the center position is pretty loaded tonight, mainly with
• 17:43
  Speaker 4: some value plays, so I think that I would lean George. Also,
• 17:48
  Speaker 4: you're getting more minutes guaranteed from George. He's going to
• 17:50
  Speaker 4: play probably minimum. I would say thirty four, with like
• 17:56
  Speaker 4: the potential for thirty seven, and Sar is not. I
• 17:59
  Speaker 4: don't I would be I'd be surprised if he's at
• 18:02
  Speaker 4: like thirty two tonight.
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: Got it.
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: All right, excellent break down there. Appreciate everybody tuning in
• 18:09

• 18:10

• 18:13
  Speaker 2: oute a ton over here. We appreciate everyone tuning in.
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: My guy Jordan's in the chat now, coaches in the chat.
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: Warren Tyler as always long leave what's going on?
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: Fellaws?
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: Welcome, appreciate it. Hope you had a great week and
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: about to joy the weekend. All right, Rio, It's on
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: to the main event. Now we got the heat, We
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: got the bulls. I had to do a double take
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: this morning when I was looking at the total, but
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: I read it right. Two hundred and forty nine and
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: a half, one of the largest ones I've seen all
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: season long. We know what this Heat team is with
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: no Tyler hero, he's still out on the shelf. Then
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: we have a bunch of injuries on the bullside. Wiggins
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: is out too, I should mention. And then on the
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: bull side, we got a lot of dudes that are
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: either hurt out or been out. Kobe White, Jones and
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: on a vooch at that game one or the other night.
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: So I talk to you a little bit about this
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: game Miami at Chicago.
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: Yes, I think even if this game was on any
• 19:09
  Speaker 4: other slate, it'd be the best game environment on the
• 19:12
  Speaker 4: entire slate, but then you kind of have the added
• 19:14
  Speaker 4: NBA Cup boost. It is a really big game for
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: both teams of Bucks. I currently in first in that group,
• 19:19
  Speaker 4: but they're very catchable. Only have a plus sixteen point differential.
• 19:23
  Speaker 4: Chicago is one and one and then Miami is one
• 19:26
  Speaker 4: on one with a plus ten point differential. So I
• 19:28
  Speaker 4: think these teams are going to play it very tight,
• 19:31
  Speaker 4: mainly Miami because they play Chicago and then they play
• 19:33
  Speaker 4: Milwaukee next, so they have a really good chance of
• 19:36
  Speaker 4: catching up to Milwaukee with a win here. But then
• 19:39
  Speaker 4: you have the added benefit of the injuries on both
• 19:42
  Speaker 4: sides with no Nikola Yovich and no Andrew Wiggins on
• 19:46
  Speaker 4: the Miami side. I think there's three ways that they
• 19:49
  Speaker 4: could take the starting lineup. I feel like the most
• 19:51
  Speaker 4: likely is Jimi Hawk has to start, but it could
• 19:54
  Speaker 4: be it could be Colo Ware or Simoni Fontecio. I
• 19:59
  Speaker 4: think that if where we're to be starting, it kind
• 20:01
  Speaker 4: of makes things a little tougher because he is only
• 20:04
  Speaker 4: center eligible now I believe, yeah, still only center eligible,
• 20:10
  Speaker 4: just kind of makes it a little tougher from a
• 20:13
  Speaker 4: positionality standpoint, but I do think that if one of
• 20:16
  Speaker 4: Hawke's or Simoni starts, I would really really like that.
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: And then for the Chicago side, injury wise, I think
• 20:23
  Speaker 4: Kobe White's.
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: Going to play tonight.
• 20:25
  Speaker 4: They're on a back to back, and they the b
• 20:28
  Speaker 4: reporter has basically said that he's not going to play
• 20:29
  Speaker 4: on both ends of the back to back. I think
• 20:31
  Speaker 4: you'd rather have him in an NBA Cup game, so
• 20:33
  Speaker 4: I think he's in. As for Trey Jones, not really
• 20:36
  Speaker 4: too sure what his injury status were to be, but
• 20:39
  Speaker 4: that would definitely open up a good amount of minutes
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: at guard, and maybe even more for Kobe White, who
• 20:44
  Speaker 4: has been playing really well. But from a matchup perspective,
• 20:48
  Speaker 4: I think there's two clear paths for these teams to
• 20:50
  Speaker 4: have success.
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: On offense.
• 20:52
  Speaker 4: The Heat should definitely be looking to get out in transition,
• 20:55
  Speaker 4: which they will. These are the two best transition scoring
• 20:57
  Speaker 4: teams in the league, also the first and second paced
• 21:00
  Speaker 4: teams in the league. Chicago is dead last in rim
• 21:03
  Speaker 4: defense this season, bottom half transition defense, and teams take
• 21:08
  Speaker 4: the most rim shots against against them in the league
• 21:11
  Speaker 4: this season. Thirty eight percent of teams field goal attempts
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: come at the basket against Chicago. So that's a clear
• 21:16
  Speaker 4: way for Chicago to find success on offense, and then
• 21:20
  Speaker 4: for Chicago or sorry, Miami to find success on offense.
• 21:24
  Speaker 4: For Chicago, the Heat allow the most three pointers against them.
• 21:28
  Speaker 4: They do play a lot of zone we've talked about
• 21:30
  Speaker 4: in the years past. So if Chicago were to get
• 21:34
  Speaker 4: away from their normal path of offense, which is mainly
• 21:37
  Speaker 4: to play a lot of transition offense, and they have
• 21:40
  Speaker 4: been a high rim volume frequency team this season, I
• 21:43
  Speaker 4: think that they could look to get some more three
• 21:45
  Speaker 4: pointers up because they have been a team that's been
• 21:47
  Speaker 4: a really high three point volume offense in years pass
• 21:50
  Speaker 4: under Billy Donovan. So I think that that's the path
• 21:52
  Speaker 4: for Chicago.
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: Here.
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: I'm already expecting a text from you after we get
• 21:56
  Speaker 4: off the show to ask who's going to be the
• 21:58
  Speaker 4: guy in Chicago to hit six to eight tonight, And
• 22:01
  Speaker 4: I think I already have one for you, but we'll
• 22:03
  Speaker 4: wait on that. Yeah, the Miami stuff, so with no
• 22:07
  Speaker 4: Andrew Wiggins, it's pretty big because he does leave behind
• 22:09
  Speaker 4: about a twenty one percent usage rate thirty plus minutes
• 22:12
  Speaker 4: a night, so a lot of that's got to trickle
• 22:14
  Speaker 4: down to some guys. I think that Bam is a
• 22:18
  Speaker 4: really good center option tonight, and he's not really getting
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: a ton of ownership.
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: The Bulls now.
• 22:23
  Speaker 4: Are dead last in DVP against opposing center, so he's
• 22:26
  Speaker 4: kind of hitting in a big way for me. Just
• 22:28
  Speaker 4: he stands out in a really big way for me tonight,
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: and he's done a pretty good job against Vouch in
• 22:33
  Speaker 4: the past and with no I mean, the samples really
• 22:36
  Speaker 4: small for Wiggins off the court the season because he's
• 22:38
  Speaker 4: played a ton of minutes. But Bam does he his
• 22:41
  Speaker 4: part per minute rates rise in a pretty big way.
• 22:44
  Speaker 4: I think in a fast paced game his second game
• 22:46
  Speaker 4: back from injury, they said they want to get him
• 22:48
  Speaker 4: it's like thirty minutes last game, we might see him
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: get up to thirty probably thirty three to thirty four.
• 22:53
  Speaker 4: I think that this could be the spot where we
• 22:55
  Speaker 4: see the ceiling game from Bam, who has been a
• 22:57
  Speaker 4: guy I'm normally going against because I just didn't really
• 22:59
  Speaker 4: think that he has the upside. But I think that
• 23:01
  Speaker 4: if there were ever to be a time for hit
• 23:03
  Speaker 4: for him to get up to like fifty five plus
• 23:06
  Speaker 4: DK points, I think it's the spot. So I'll definitely
• 23:08
  Speaker 4: have a ton of Bam tonight potential core play, and
• 23:11
  Speaker 4: then Norman Powell, I think is the guy that's going
• 23:13
  Speaker 4: to benefit the most. Mico a little bit overlooked at
• 23:16
  Speaker 4: his price, just because people kind of view him as
• 23:19
  Speaker 4: a guy that has to score thirty five plus points
• 23:22
  Speaker 4: to hit value.
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: But I think he can do that. Here.
• 23:26
  Speaker 4: He sees the biggest bump in usage with Wiggins off
• 23:28
  Speaker 4: the court of season thirty one and a half percent,
• 23:30
  Speaker 4: with his fantasy points for a minute increasing to a
• 23:33
  Speaker 4: pretty strong one point two seven fantasy points for a minute.
• 23:36
  Speaker 4: Game environments can be great. The NBA Cup stuff is
• 23:39
  Speaker 4: in there, so he could play thirty five thirty six minutes.
• 23:41
  Speaker 4: I really like Norm Powell. Pamy Hakez is a clear
• 23:44
  Speaker 4: option at seven K. I don't even think it. I
• 23:47
  Speaker 4: kind of hope that he comes off the bench and
• 23:48
  Speaker 4: people get a little weirded out by that, because I
• 23:51
  Speaker 4: think everybody's expecting him to start. But even if he
• 23:54
  Speaker 4: comes off the bench, like he's playing thirty two minutes
• 23:56
  Speaker 4: on a regular night, so he's probably seeing thirty four
• 23:58
  Speaker 4: to thirty five, and he does a lot of everything,
• 24:00
  Speaker 4: doesn't really need a score to hit value because he
• 24:02
  Speaker 4: does provide stats in all categories steels, blocks, points, rebounds, assists.
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: So he's really good.
• 24:08
  Speaker 4: And then Simoni Fontacchio should really uh should sees mean
• 24:13
  Speaker 4: it's come up in a big way. I hope that
• 24:15
  Speaker 4: he starts because that should solidify him for like twenty
• 24:17
  Speaker 4: five to twenty six minutes, and he's only three point
• 24:19
  Speaker 4: five K. I would much rather play him than any
• 24:22
  Speaker 4: of the other tertiary guys that are getting any sort
• 24:24
  Speaker 4: of ownership between Pelle Larson, Deveon Andrew Smith because he's
• 24:28
  Speaker 4: only three point five K been taking a lot of
• 24:30
  Speaker 4: shots lately, double digit shot attempts in each of his
• 24:33
  Speaker 4: last two games. So yeah, I think Simone is really good.
• 24:36
  Speaker 4: I would probably look to get away from Pelley Larson.
• 24:38
  Speaker 4: I'm just not super excited about him, just generally a
• 24:41
  Speaker 4: low usage, low point perminte guy. I think Simoni is
• 24:44
  Speaker 4: much better. So those are the four guys that sent
• 24:46
  Speaker 4: out to me in a pretty big way. I don't
• 24:49
  Speaker 4: think you want to play more than two of Simone,
• 24:52
  Speaker 4: Pelly Larson, or Jaime hawks Senaikes. I think should the
• 24:56
  Speaker 4: minutes come up for any of those three, it's going
• 24:59
  Speaker 4: to come at the expense of the other. I feel
• 25:01
  Speaker 4: like Fontechi and Pelly Larson probably correlate pretty negatively unless
• 25:06
  Speaker 4: they're starting, and then vice versa for Ji May and Pele,
• 25:12
  Speaker 4: I think that's it. I really like the Miami side
• 25:15
  Speaker 4: I could see, I could see them running like an
• 25:19
  Speaker 4: eight and a half man rotation with as being a
• 25:21
  Speaker 4: very important game for them. It's probably gonna be Keisha
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: Johnson getting into the mix, but if he does play,
• 25:27
  Speaker 4: it's probably not more than one rotation in each half,
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: maybe just one rotation in general. And then the Chicago
• 25:34
  Speaker 4: side not getting a ton of ownership, but I definitely
• 25:36
  Speaker 4: think that it should. I think only to two guys
• 25:39
  Speaker 4: I'm really looking to here. One is gonna be Josh
• 25:42
  Speaker 4: Giddy nine point five K. His triple double odds were
• 25:46
  Speaker 4: pretty juiced up, so I think that. I mean, he's
• 25:49
  Speaker 4: got a really strong floor and a really high ceiling here.
• 25:52
  Speaker 4: Miami allows the third most fantasy points to opposing point guards,
• 25:55
  Speaker 4: nearly nine rebounds and assists per game to opposing point guards,
• 25:58
  Speaker 4: and Giddy is one of the guys that can do
• 26:00
  Speaker 4: a lot of everything from a usage standpoint, his usage
• 26:04
  Speaker 4: does get negatively impacted a bit while sharing the court
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: with Kobe White, but some other things increase his fantasy
• 26:10
  Speaker 4: points minute increase in a pretty big way, one point
• 26:12
  Speaker 4: sixty to one fantasy points for minute this season with Kobe,
• 26:15
  Speaker 4: the assist numbers get better, and just the overall offensive
• 26:18
  Speaker 4: efficiency for the Bulls gets.
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: A lot better.
• 26:21
  Speaker 4: So I'm not really too worried about Kobe White taking
• 26:24
  Speaker 4: away some touches from him. I think that Giddy is
• 26:26
  Speaker 4: a really strong option and probably be the first guy
• 26:29
  Speaker 4: that I look to if I'm looking to game stack
• 26:31
  Speaker 4: this game with you know, three to four Miami guys
• 26:34
  Speaker 4: in one Chicago, He'd be the first guy I look to.
• 26:36
  Speaker 4: Second would be Kobe White, because I do think with
• 26:39
  Speaker 4: this being his third game back from injury, there's probably
• 26:42
  Speaker 4: a good likelihood that he's closer to thirty two to
• 26:44
  Speaker 4: thirty three, and he's looked really good, like really not
• 26:47
  Speaker 4: rusty at all from all the time off. He's made
• 26:50
  Speaker 4: eight of his seventeen three point attempts, drawing a lot
• 26:52
  Speaker 4: of fouls, and taking on a large usage role. So
• 26:55
  Speaker 4: I think that people might overlook him at seven point
• 26:57
  Speaker 4: four k but I do think that there is upside
• 26:59
  Speaker 4: for him in a really good matchup for three point shooters,
• 27:03
  Speaker 4: and then if I'm also looking at game sack, I
• 27:05
  Speaker 4: don't really love Voods here, but in a close game
• 27:08
  Speaker 4: he will play a lot, And then if TREYE. Jones
• 27:10
  Speaker 4: were to miss, then you can start to look to
• 27:12
  Speaker 4: like Kevin herder Io. I don't really love it for Busellis.
• 27:16
  Speaker 4: I mean, the fast paced game environment should help him,
• 27:18
  Speaker 4: but the minutes are all over the place right now,
• 27:21
  Speaker 4: so I don't really feel too confident in him. But yeah,
• 27:24
  Speaker 4: really a lot to like in this game.
• 27:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah, sounds like if Fontechio starts, he is he locking
• 27:31
  Speaker 3: him in at that.
• 27:31
  Speaker 4: Price or I like him regardless, But yeah, if he starts,
• 27:34
  Speaker 4: I think he's he's really good. Yeah, excellent breakdown there,
• 27:38
  Speaker 4: Utah Jazz Legend by the way, yes.
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: Former Utah and Detroit legend Simone Fontechio. Moving on to
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: the next game. We got the Pelicans, Skinny Zion. We
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: got the MAVs, Nico Lisz. MAVs should be a terrible
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: game because you've got two terrible teams, but hey, they
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: got a decent little, decent little total you got going
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: on their tiers for Fears, my boy, Jeremiah Fears Derek
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: Queen just balling out of control at fifty five hundred.
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: Just put on a show the other night. But talk
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: to me a little bit about this game. You got
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: the Pails going into Dallas to take on this MAVs team.
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, nothing for the NBA Cup here.
• 28:18
  Speaker 4: These teams are out of the race, so just gonna
• 28:21
  Speaker 4: be two bad teams facing off against each other. These
• 28:25
  Speaker 4: are really two of the worst offenses from a points
• 28:27
  Speaker 4: per possession standpoint. The Mavericks are dead last and New
• 28:30
  Speaker 4: Orleans I think is like six or seventh bottom worst
• 28:33
  Speaker 4: offense in the league.
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: They did look a lot better last.
• 28:36
  Speaker 4: Game was Ion out there and then I had them
• 28:39
  Speaker 4: running their offense through Derek Queen, which was a thing
• 28:41
  Speaker 4: that I was trying to keep a close eye on
• 28:43
  Speaker 4: because I didn't know how those two were gonna work together.
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: But it worked really well.
• 28:47
  Speaker 4: They hung around in that Denver game, offense looked fine,
• 28:51
  Speaker 4: So I think that they'll be pretty pretty fine moving
• 28:55
  Speaker 4: forward as long as Zion is healthy. It is a
• 28:57
  Speaker 4: good matchup because Dallas is no good so I think
• 28:59
  Speaker 4: that we're going to get normal minutes from these guys,
• 29:03
  Speaker 4: and I think that the matchup versus Dallas is fine too.
• 29:05
  Speaker 4: They are getting a little bit healthy in the front
• 29:07
  Speaker 4: court with Lively and Gafford playing more minutes, but they've
• 29:09
  Speaker 4: still been giving a ton of rim points up with
• 29:12
  Speaker 4: those two guys out there. For the Pelicans. On defense,
• 29:14
  Speaker 4: they give up the fourth most threes per game this
• 29:16
  Speaker 4: season and their bottom three in both teams are bottom
• 29:20
  Speaker 4: three and pick and roll defense, So a pretty good
• 29:21
  Speaker 4: spot for the guards here. Zion's going to be capped
• 29:25
  Speaker 4: thirty minutes probably is, I would say the most he's
• 29:27
  Speaker 4: going to play in a game, at least for the
• 29:29
  Speaker 4: time being. Matchups fine versus PJ Washington. Terrible rim defense
• 29:34
  Speaker 4: on the other side, so he should be in a
• 29:36
  Speaker 4: pretty good spot here. But I don't really think that
• 29:38
  Speaker 4: I want to play a guy that sees his usage
• 29:41
  Speaker 4: drop by four points while sharing the core with Derek Queen.
• 29:44
  Speaker 4: Also not really great permanent numbers at just one point
• 29:46
  Speaker 4: two to eight fantasy points for a minute. The role
• 29:48
  Speaker 4: was not that great last time out. Didn't really see
• 29:51
  Speaker 4: a ton of drives or touch time. He lost a
• 29:53
  Speaker 4: lot of that to Derek Queen. So I'm okay getting
• 29:55
  Speaker 4: away from Zion and any type of ownership. I just
• 29:57
  Speaker 4: don't really know if if I want to play him only,
• 30:01
  Speaker 4: you know a guy eight point five K with that
• 30:02
  Speaker 4: type of permanent rates that isn't playing a ton of minutes,
• 30:06
  Speaker 4: So I'm okay getting away from him.
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: Trey Murphy is fine. His usage just okay.
• 30:11
  Speaker 4: With Zion getting healthier last game, I think he's kind
• 30:14
  Speaker 4: of grades out like as more of a cash game
• 30:16
  Speaker 4: play because he doesn't really have a ton of upside.
• 30:20
  Speaker 4: I don't think like forty to forty two is fine
• 30:23
  Speaker 4: at his price, but it's a pretty big slate. I
• 30:25
  Speaker 4: think we're gonna get some really high scores, and I
• 30:27
  Speaker 4: want to look to the games that have a lot
• 30:29
  Speaker 4: more importance to them for NBA Cup actions. I'm probably
• 30:32
  Speaker 4: not going to get to a ton of Murphy if
• 30:34
  Speaker 4: I had a guess right now. But Derek Queen I
• 30:36
  Speaker 4: will definitely get a lot of love. That he's power
• 30:38
  Speaker 4: forward eligible as well, makes a lot work. If you
• 30:40
  Speaker 4: can want to play like three centers, you definitely could
• 30:42
  Speaker 4: with Derek Queen in there. Dallas is allowing the fifth
• 30:45
  Speaker 4: most Fantasy points to opposing centers this season. He saw
• 30:48
  Speaker 4: a pretty big uptick in front court touch his last
• 30:50
  Speaker 4: game while Shanon thecor was Zigon and was really good
• 30:52
  Speaker 4: against Jokic. I think that the ear is definitely pointing
• 30:55
  Speaker 4: up for Derrek Queen. He's my top play on the
• 30:58
  Speaker 4: Pelicans tonight and then Fears can stay in your player pool.
• 31:02
  Speaker 4: But I see him being largely negatively impacted by the
• 31:06
  Speaker 4: return of Zion for the Dallas side. It makes a
• 31:10
  Speaker 4: little bit tougher. But if we do get word that
• 31:12
  Speaker 4: Dangel Russell is out because he's questionable, that would make
• 31:14
  Speaker 4: Brandon Williams a lot more appealing as a guy that
• 31:17
  Speaker 4: should see a lot of pick and roll volume. I
• 31:19
  Speaker 4: want to like the centers here a lot because it
• 31:21
  Speaker 4: is a great matchup, but it's tough to know which
• 31:24
  Speaker 4: one is going to be the one that pulls away.
• 31:26
  Speaker 4: From a minute standpoint. It has been Daniel Gafford, so
• 31:29
  Speaker 4: if I had to choose one, it would be him.
• 31:31
  Speaker 4: I don't really want to play a guy that's only
• 31:33
  Speaker 4: playing like twenty four to twenty five minutes. But if
• 31:35
  Speaker 4: I knew he was playing like twenty eight tonight, I
• 31:37
  Speaker 4: would probably have a good bit of him because it's
• 31:38
  Speaker 4: a really good matchup against the Pelicans. But as it
• 31:41
  Speaker 4: stands right now, don't really want to get to much
• 31:44
  Speaker 4: in this game from the Dallas sid I think that
• 31:46
  Speaker 4: it's just Derek Queen and then I guess like PJ
• 31:51
  Speaker 4: and Murphy are okay options.
• 31:55
  Speaker 3: Warren just asks about Max Chris.
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: He doesn't sound like you have much of any interest
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: in him, I mean leaving him in there.
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: But Max Christie, I know you didn mention him. I'm
• 32:04
  Speaker 3: assuming you don't have any interest in them.
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he's okay.
• 32:08
  Speaker 4: I don't know solid game log I don't Pelicans do
• 32:11
  Speaker 4: give a lot of points to shooting guards, so it
• 32:12
  Speaker 4: is a plus matchup for him, But don't really have
• 32:16
  Speaker 4: a strong take on him. I don't think that much
• 32:19
  Speaker 4: changes for him from a roll standpoint if anybody were
• 32:21
  Speaker 4: to be in and out.
• 32:23
  Speaker 3: What about what about Derek Queen?
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: We see there that his ownership percentage is up to
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: twenty six percent.
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: It's going to be higher than that.
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I was Yeah. Where I was going is
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: like what how high is too high? Like let's talk
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: about single entry three entry Max, Like, can you fade
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: him at forty fifty percent? Or is he just like
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: we're playing Derek Queen tonight.
• 32:45
  Speaker 4: I'm a little torn on it because the last time
• 32:48
  Speaker 4: that he was chalk, he I mean he got there.
• 32:52
  Speaker 4: He was okay, but I don't know, like if it
• 32:56
  Speaker 4: got up to seventy percent, which I definitely it could
• 32:59
  Speaker 4: definitely get there. I'm gonna check really quick what Saber
• 33:02
  Speaker 4: has him in some of these high stake stuff, because
• 33:04
  Speaker 4: it's gonna be pretty high. This is a forty one percent.
• 33:07
  Speaker 4: I think that's fine in like in your single untry stuff.
• 33:10
  Speaker 4: And if you're playing anything like I'll be in the
• 33:13
  Speaker 4: qualifier for the Fantasy Basketball Live Championship tonight, He'll definitely
• 33:18
  Speaker 4: be in that lineup, and I think that he'll probably
• 33:20
  Speaker 4: be eighty plus percent there, so I'd be fine with him.
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: Okay, all right, Queen, it is yeah, excellent stuff there.
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: We're breezing right through these seven games. We got two
• 33:30
  Speaker 2: games left and uh, the next one should be a
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: should be a decent game. I would assume you got
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: a couple injuries for the Suns and you have obviously
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: my boy aunt playing this one. Still know Terrence Shannon, Uh,
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: still know Grayson Allen for Phoenix. Still no Jalen Green
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: and know I think he played like one game order
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: this season, maybe two, but he's on the shelf. I
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: got my boy Booker playing the night. But talk to
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: me a little bit about this game. You got Booker
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: versus Aunt and Randall and welcoming the Tea Wolves or Timberwolves.
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: They don't want to get corrected to Phoenix talked about
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: this game Minnesota at Phoenix.
• 34:07
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so Minnesota has a pretty good chance to extend
• 34:09
  Speaker 4: their lead in a big way here, And I mean
• 34:12
  Speaker 4: it's kind of all up in the air for their
• 34:14
  Speaker 4: group because they it's Minnesota, Timberwolves, the Timberwolves, okay See,
• 34:18
  Speaker 4: and Phoenix all trying to get out of their group.
• 34:21
  Speaker 4: Phoenix and okay See have only played one game, so
• 34:23
  Speaker 4: I don't really think that there's like too much to
• 34:26
  Speaker 4: go off of their okay See plays Utah tonight, so
• 34:29
  Speaker 4: they're probably gonna catch up to Minnesota from the point
• 34:32
  Speaker 4: differential standpoint, and then those teams face off next after
• 34:37
  Speaker 4: this one. Minnesota okay See, so kind of a pretty
• 34:41
  Speaker 4: big spot here because I would imagine if Oka See
• 34:44
  Speaker 4: beats Minnesota actually that both those teams will probably So
• 34:50
  Speaker 4: I'm just trying to think this through. I think that
• 34:52
  Speaker 4: it's a really big game for both these teams, but
• 34:53
  Speaker 4: I think Minnesota more so if they do care about
• 34:56
  Speaker 4: the NBA Cup because right now they have a plus
• 34:58
  Speaker 4: fifty four point differential. Okay, he's behind them plus thirty one,
• 35:01
  Speaker 4: and then Phoenix is plus twenty two.
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 35:04
  Speaker 4: See has yet to play either of these teams, but
• 35:07
  Speaker 4: they haven't played Utah either, So I think Minnesota is
• 35:10
  Speaker 4: going to take this one very seriously and probably good
• 35:13
  Speaker 4: chance at the minutes get ran up in a pretty
• 35:14
  Speaker 4: big way here. Decently big Q tech on Jay McDaniels
• 35:19
  Speaker 4: in terms of the outlook for the matchup for Devin Booker,
• 35:22
  Speaker 4: but also for the rotation for Minnesota because we did
• 35:25
  Speaker 4: see pretty big roles from nas Reed off the bench
• 35:28
  Speaker 4: twenty seven minutes last game, and then Dante played decently
• 35:31
  Speaker 4: in that game as well, but played a ton of minutes,
• 35:33
  Speaker 4: so that those minutes have to go somewhere else. It's
• 35:35
  Speaker 4: would probably be Mike Conley and Jaylen Clark filling in
• 35:39
  Speaker 4: most of that and then nas Reed mixing in a
• 35:41
  Speaker 4: little bit as well, but it would really make the
• 35:44
  Speaker 4: matchup a lot better for Booker, who for Booker, who
• 35:47
  Speaker 4: I think is already in a decent spot whether he's
• 35:50
  Speaker 4: in or out, mainly because the Wolves are a huge
• 35:53
  Speaker 4: on ball funnel. Second worst pick and roll defense in
• 35:55
  Speaker 4: the league, Phoenix doesn't really have a ton of areas
• 35:58
  Speaker 4: that are weaknesses and defense, they've been pretty solid, but
• 36:01
  Speaker 4: I think if there was one, it'd probably be their
• 36:03
  Speaker 4: rim defense. But these are two of the better offenses
• 36:05
  Speaker 4: in the league. Minnesota's fourth in points per possession, Phoenix
• 36:08
  Speaker 4: is six, So it could be a lot of points
• 36:10
  Speaker 4: scored here in a game that is projected to remain close,
• 36:13
  Speaker 4: in a game where the Stars could really play a
• 36:15
  Speaker 4: ton of minutes here, So kind I think that this
• 36:17
  Speaker 4: is a sneaky spot because I don't really see a
• 36:19
  Speaker 4: lot of ownership going to either side. The matchup for
• 36:22
  Speaker 4: and is pretty tough. He's fired fine against Dylan Brooks
• 36:25
  Speaker 4: in his career average forty five DK points against some
• 36:28
  Speaker 4: twenty seven points per game. A little bit different spot
• 36:30
  Speaker 4: here because Houston kind of just left Dylan Brooks on
• 36:33
  Speaker 4: the island. They never are a team that sends a
• 36:35
  Speaker 4: lot of help. I think Phoenix could, but they that
• 36:38
  Speaker 4: could also hurt them because because of how well all
• 36:41
  Speaker 4: the secondary guys are playing for Minnesota right now, Dante
• 36:45
  Speaker 4: shooting the ball well, Randall's playing like an All Star.
• 36:47
  Speaker 4: Nas Reed has been huge for them off the bench,
• 36:50
  Speaker 4: so I think that if they do send some help,
• 36:52
  Speaker 4: then we could see pretty solid games from the secondary guys. Obviously,
• 36:55
  Speaker 4: I think Randall would be the main one, and his
• 36:57
  Speaker 4: matchup is fine. Should see Ryan Dunn on defense. I
• 36:59
  Speaker 4: don't think that's one you're really shining away from. The
• 37:02
  Speaker 4: assist numbers are starting to dip a little bit over
• 37:04
  Speaker 4: the last few games, but I think that he's a
• 37:08
  Speaker 4: decent spot for this matchup, considering the Suns are kind
• 37:12
  Speaker 4: of middle of the road rim defense, and then I
• 37:14
  Speaker 4: think if Ant does get shut down, I kind of
• 37:17
  Speaker 4: like the spot for Dancy Devincenzo. Five point four k
• 37:21
  Speaker 4: is a good prize side for him. He does have
• 37:24
  Speaker 4: pretty solid upside. We'll take a ton of threes, and
• 37:26
  Speaker 4: then if Jada McDaniels is out that also helps him
• 37:29
  Speaker 4: a little bit as well. But I do think that
• 37:31
  Speaker 4: Ant is a guy you should consider tonight in your playerpool.
• 37:34
  Speaker 4: Maybe not in like singleuntry stuff. I think it might
• 37:37
  Speaker 4: be kind of tough, but I do think that this
• 37:38
  Speaker 4: is a very very appealing game environment with a lot
• 37:40
  Speaker 4: of importance. And then for the Suns, it's mainly Devin Booker.
• 37:44
  Speaker 4: Like I mentioned, the pick and roll stuff for the
• 37:46
  Speaker 4: Wolves has been a pretty big issue for them this season.
• 37:48
  Speaker 4: And then if Jada McDaniels were to be out, then
• 37:51
  Speaker 4: Devin Booker looks like a really strong option. He's capable
• 37:54
  Speaker 4: of playing thirty eight to forty minutes and he does
• 37:58
  Speaker 4: have a ton of upsides.
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: So I do like Booker a little bit.
• 38:01
  Speaker 4: And then Colin Gillespie has just been playing great for
• 38:03
  Speaker 4: them off the bench, so I think that he's very
• 38:05
  Speaker 4: very much in play. And then lastly, Dylan Brooks really
• 38:10
  Speaker 4: high bumping usage for him this season compared to last
• 38:13
  Speaker 4: year with Houston. I think it's a little bit too
• 38:15
  Speaker 4: expensive to go to him, but he has had hit
• 38:19
  Speaker 4: in some pretty big ways this season, so you could
• 38:21
  Speaker 4: consider him. I doubt we're getting a tournament winning game
• 38:24
  Speaker 4: from him, but he's not not in play.
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we got a good question in the chat Randall
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: eighty six hundred versus Barnes eighty five hundred.
• 38:37
  Speaker 4: It's gonna be rand or sorry Scotty Barnes for me.
• 38:40
  Speaker 4: I just really I can't get over that matchup. I
• 38:42
  Speaker 4: think it's really good.
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: Yes, Scottie Barne is the nut matchup against the against
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: the Wizards. All right, one game weft let's talk about it.
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: We got the Dadgum Joker thirteen to two in Rio.
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: I don't know if I've ever seen it. Guys, what
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: thirty I'm not a good at math. Was thirty seven
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: hundred more than the next person?
• 39:05
  Speaker 3: Thirty five thirty five.
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: More one hundred than Sengoon Shing Gooon? However we say
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: his name, he's in the thirteen to two is a lot.
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: But talk to me about this game Denver at Houston.
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: We know how.
• 39:15
  Speaker 3: Houston's been playing.
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: They've been on a roll as of late after losing
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: the first two of the season.
• 39:20
  Speaker 3: But you got the Joker thirteen to two. It's been balling.
• 39:22
  Speaker 3: I don't know if you saw that tweet, but he's.
• 39:24
  Speaker 2: Basically had a triple double in what nine of ten
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: games or twelve of thirteen or something crazy like that.
• 39:30
  Speaker 3: I can't wait to watch this one.
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: Got the Nuggets with no CB at Houston taking on
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: the Rockets.
• 39:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah, another game with some pretty big Q tags. Jabari
• 39:40
  Speaker 4: Smith and Steven Adams are listened questionable. Jabari was questionable
• 39:43
  Speaker 4: last game and he played. Steven Adams downgraded, so we'll
• 39:47
  Speaker 4: see what happens there.
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: I feel like they're gonna play.
• 39:49
  Speaker 4: It's another pretty game, a pretty big game for the
• 39:53
  Speaker 4: NBA Cup. Yeah, all these teams in the in Group
• 39:56
  Speaker 4: C are one and one right now, and Denver has
• 39:59
  Speaker 4: a plus ten differential over Houston right now plus twenty
• 40:02
  Speaker 4: three versus plus thirteen. So really really big game here
• 40:06
  Speaker 4: for both these teams. And I think just in terms
• 40:08
  Speaker 4: of like the West, it's a really big game because
• 40:10
  Speaker 4: these are two of the top teams in the West,
• 40:12
  Speaker 4: two of the best offenses and defenses in the league.
• 40:15
  Speaker 4: So it's going to be a very very good game
• 40:17
  Speaker 4: to watch. But I'm not sure if the defenses are
• 40:21
  Speaker 4: going to play better than the offenses here, and we
• 40:23
  Speaker 4: don't get a ton of fantasy points.
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: I could see either way. Either way it goes.
• 40:28
  Speaker 4: I feel like there's a wide range of outcomes on
• 40:31
  Speaker 4: the game from a fantasy points perspective, but really could
• 40:36
  Speaker 4: see the minutes game push up in a big way
• 40:37
  Speaker 4: here just for how big this game is for the group.
• 40:42
  Speaker 4: These are the top one to two ranked offenses in
• 40:44
  Speaker 4: the league from a points per possession standpoint. Rockets are
• 40:47
  Speaker 4: the best offensive rebounding team in the league forty percent
• 40:50
  Speaker 4: rebounding rate, which is four points better than the next team,
• 40:53
  Speaker 4: they can give up some threes the Houston defense can
• 40:55
  Speaker 4: Denver is not really taking a ton of threes right now,
• 40:59
  Speaker 4: and then the pick and roll defense for Denver has
• 41:01
  Speaker 4: been a little bit worse in seasons past than has
• 41:03
  Speaker 4: in seasons past. Rockets are bottom five in transition defense
• 41:07
  Speaker 4: this season, and not really too much to talk about
• 41:10
  Speaker 4: there because Denver kind of operates in the half court
• 41:12
  Speaker 4: a lot more so they probably aren't gonna be able
• 41:14
  Speaker 4: to capitalize on that there. Yeah, talking about the Denver stuff.
• 41:19
  Speaker 4: Jokic obviously always in play. Anytime you get him at
• 41:22
  Speaker 4: single digit own you should, But he's thirteen point two K.
• 41:25
  Speaker 4: You realistically need eighty DK points from him. He could
• 41:30
  Speaker 4: definitely do that in any matchup. He's matchup proof. But
• 41:33
  Speaker 4: if there were ever a soft for him to have
• 41:35
  Speaker 4: a down game, I would think it's against Houston just
• 41:37
  Speaker 4: how big and how good their defense has been in
• 41:40
  Speaker 4: the front court. So I'm going to try to get
• 41:43
  Speaker 4: some of Jokic. There's a lot of really good center
• 41:45
  Speaker 4: options that could outscore him from a points per dollar
• 41:47
  Speaker 4: perspective that I mentioned earlier. But obviously you're getting Yokich
• 41:51
  Speaker 4: at single digit ownership, so you got to have a
• 41:54
  Speaker 4: little bit in your portfolio. I would say I think
• 41:57
  Speaker 4: that Jamal Murray is kind of interesting at eight point
• 42:00
  Speaker 4: five k. Obviously a really tough matchup against Aman Thompson.
• 42:03
  Speaker 4: Amen and Houston have just been really good against the
• 42:06
  Speaker 4: pick and roll this season. But we've seen before Jamal
• 42:09
  Speaker 4: Murray getting up for some of these bigger games, and
• 42:13
  Speaker 4: he's had one big game against am and Thompson in
• 42:15
  Speaker 4: his career, put a fifty six against him, and then
• 42:18
  Speaker 4: thirty four points or below DraftKings points or below and
• 42:21
  Speaker 4: the other two games against him. So I know that
• 42:23
  Speaker 4: the range is pretty wide for him, but I do
• 42:26
  Speaker 4: think that there is a slate breaking upside range of
• 42:29
  Speaker 4: falcons for him as well. So I'm going to get
• 42:31
  Speaker 4: to a little bit Jamal because I do think that
• 42:33
  Speaker 4: this is a game that has a potential to shootout
• 42:36
  Speaker 4: in a pretty big way. I think Aaron Gordon's okay,
• 42:39
  Speaker 4: He's been playing really well before the injury, but nothing
• 42:42
  Speaker 4: about the matchup really stands out for him. Is kind of,
• 42:45
  Speaker 4: you know, backdoor cutting guy in the rim. Defense for
• 42:48
  Speaker 4: Houston's very good. Don't mind Peyton Watson coming off of
• 42:52
  Speaker 4: a career outing thirty two points twelve rebounds, three assists,
• 42:55
  Speaker 4: fifty five and a half DK points. It's gonna come
• 42:57
  Speaker 4: down a little bit as Aaron Gordon is back in
• 43:00
  Speaker 4: this one, but he should still play upper thirties minutes
• 43:03
  Speaker 4: and I think they're going to need him a lot
• 43:05
  Speaker 4: on defense in this game. I would say the Houston
• 43:09
  Speaker 4: side is a lot more appealing just because the prices
• 43:11
  Speaker 4: are better. Samgunna nine point seven k kind of like
• 43:13
  Speaker 4: a mini jokis just the way that they use him
• 43:15
  Speaker 4: on offense. He's been doing really good this season. They
• 43:18
  Speaker 4: run the offense through him, been close to triple double
• 43:21
  Speaker 4: and basically every game, So not going to repeat myself,
• 43:23
  Speaker 4: but he is really close to some massive games. He
• 43:26
  Speaker 4: did put up fifty five DK points, and I would say,
• 43:28
  Speaker 4: quote unquote a tough matchup because I think that the
• 43:31
  Speaker 4: Cavaliers defense is probably a little overhyped, but this is
• 43:35
  Speaker 4: also a pretty tough matchup. I do think that you
• 43:37
  Speaker 4: kind of get like seventy percent Jokic aid three thousand
• 43:40
  Speaker 4: dollars cheaper, so he's a probably the best upside option
• 43:44
  Speaker 4: on the Houston side. Don't really like KD, never really
• 43:48
  Speaker 4: advocating to play him, except for the last light that
• 43:50
  Speaker 4: he was on. I think that it's just not a
• 43:52
  Speaker 4: great spot for him, going to see two pretty tough
• 43:54
  Speaker 4: defenders in Peyton Watson and or Aaron Gordon. I think
• 43:57
  Speaker 4: that he's in play for sure in a game environment
• 44:00
  Speaker 4: that could be pretty good. But I think that I
• 44:02
  Speaker 4: like Amen a little bit more. Been playing a ton
• 44:05
  Speaker 4: of minutes lately. Forty and thirty nine in his last
• 44:07
  Speaker 4: two games. Does not have a good track record against Denver,
• 44:10
  Speaker 4: but we know that the sleigh winning upside is definitely
• 44:12
  Speaker 4: there for Amen, and his price is starting to come
• 44:14
  Speaker 4: down a little bit more.
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: Sub Ak is a pretty good spot for him.
• 44:17
  Speaker 4: I do wish that he had dual eligibility still, even
• 44:20
  Speaker 4: if he had shooting guard eligibility, that would help a lot,
• 44:23
  Speaker 4: but just point guard right now, so it makes it
• 44:25
  Speaker 4: a little bit tougher. And then if Jabari misses Reed,
• 44:28
  Speaker 4: Shepherd would look really strong. I would want a ton
• 44:31
  Speaker 4: of him because he'd only be four point. Ak probably
• 44:33
  Speaker 4: would be sliding into the starting lineup. I don't know
• 44:35
  Speaker 4: if they would want to have o Kogie out there
• 44:38
  Speaker 4: with Steven Adams and the Sanggoon because I think that
• 44:40
  Speaker 4: spacing kind of hurts there. But I do think Read
• 44:44
  Speaker 4: Shepperd would be a very very He's kind of been
• 44:45
  Speaker 4: play regardless of just how well he's played, but I
• 44:48
  Speaker 4: think he'd be a really really good value play if
• 44:50
  Speaker 4: Jabari Smith were to get ruled out, and we should
• 44:52
  Speaker 4: get that news fairly early because the Rockets are posting
• 44:57
  Speaker 4: their starting lineups like sometimes two hours before to so
• 45:00
  Speaker 4: maybe they'll give us the injury report earlier than usual.
• 45:04
  Speaker 4: And then Steven Adams is one of the top value
• 45:06
  Speaker 4: plays at center as well. I imagine they're going to
• 45:08
  Speaker 4: ask him to play a good amount tonight to match
• 45:11
  Speaker 4: some of Jokich's minutes. He does not gonna put up
• 45:15
  Speaker 4: a ton of shots, doesn't really do anything other than
• 45:17
  Speaker 4: rebound and tip balls, and I think that you can
• 45:19
  Speaker 4: make the case that this would be one of the
• 45:21
  Speaker 4: worst matchups for him because the Nuggets are a really
• 45:23
  Speaker 4: good rebounding team and a good room defense. But for
• 45:26
  Speaker 4: four point one case, somebody that averages over one fantasy
• 45:29
  Speaker 4: porm per minutes, I think that he's pretty solid. So yeah, good,
• 45:32
  Speaker 4: good game, sneaky high upside, kind of similar to that
• 45:34
  Speaker 4: Minnesota Phoenix game. I think that this game could be
• 45:37
  Speaker 4: heard from in one way or another.
• 45:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's interesting.
• 45:41
  Speaker 2: I mean, I mean, I know Yogics is obviously very expensive,
• 45:44
  Speaker 2: but he's also twelve twelve points projected more than the
• 45:47
  Speaker 2: next guy, So interesting what you're going to have to
• 45:50
  Speaker 2: do with him. If he goes for eighty and you
• 45:51
  Speaker 2: don't have him, you're fraud. But if he goes for
• 45:53
  Speaker 2: you know, fifty's taking up a lot of salary. If
• 45:55
  Speaker 2: there was one game, an entire game, that you were fading,
• 45:58
  Speaker 2: which one do you.
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: Think you would be?
• 46:00
  Speaker 4: It would be Brooklyn and Boston. I think I feel
• 46:02
  Speaker 4: like that one just has no NBA Cup implications and
• 46:06
  Speaker 4: a really high spread. There's a lot of ways that
• 46:08
  Speaker 4: it could go wrong.
• 46:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that'll do it. That's all seven Games. Appreciate you
• 46:12
  Speaker 3: tuning in.
• 46:14
  Speaker 4: We'll give some give the FanDuel people some love, just
• 46:17
  Speaker 4: because we always focus on draftings and kind of skip
• 46:20
  Speaker 4: over FANDLE.
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: But we got done pretty quickly.
• 46:23
  Speaker 4: I'll like little preface though I haven't looked at FANDUA
• 46:27
  Speaker 4: at all, so I don't know what that state looks like,
• 46:30
  Speaker 4: but I know that Portland is on it and they
• 46:32
  Speaker 4: have a lot of injuries, so that would be one.
• 46:35
  Speaker 4: I'm kind of focusing in on Jeremy Grant looks great,
• 46:38
  Speaker 4: Denny looks really good. I think Klingon is probably pretty
• 46:42
  Speaker 4: good as well. It's a little bit of a tougher matchup,
• 46:43
  Speaker 4: so he'd be he'd be Okay, don't really like too much.
• 46:48
  Speaker 4: On the Golden State side, I think Steph is I mean,
• 46:50
  Speaker 4: that game is going to play up and pace. Golden
• 46:52
  Speaker 4: State does have a really solid team. Sol All Portland's
• 46:54
  Speaker 4: defense has been kind of bad lately, so I think
• 46:57
  Speaker 4: Steph is pretty good. Okay, see they're gonna blow out Utah,
• 47:02
  Speaker 4: so I don't think I want that game. The prices
• 47:06
  Speaker 4: in the Houston Denver game is pretty good. I'm in
• 47:10
  Speaker 4: only eight K over there, Steven Adams four point three K.
• 47:14
  Speaker 4: Jokic a little bit more appealing at twelve point eight
• 47:17
  Speaker 4: K on on FanDuel. I think Phoenix looks a little
• 47:22
  Speaker 4: bit worse on FanDuel. Minnesota probably not in play on FanDuel.
• 47:29
  Speaker 4: New Orleans Zion's only AK there. Derek Queen six K
• 47:32
  Speaker 4: also has power forward eligibility, so I think he's great
• 47:35
  Speaker 4: on both sides.
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: I still think you want a lot of that.
• 47:38
  Speaker 4: The Miami Chicago game, Giddy's only nine point three good
• 47:42
  Speaker 4: price sag. Bam also has power forward, eligibility and center,
• 47:45
  Speaker 4: so I would probably be playing a lot of Bam
• 47:48
  Speaker 4: and Derek Queen lineups. And then Hakez six point eight
• 47:51
  Speaker 4: really good, simone three point nine K good price Sag there,
• 47:58
  Speaker 4: it's kind of the same thing like Washington and Toronto
• 48:00
  Speaker 4: is very good as well, Scott, he's only eight point seven.
• 48:04
  Speaker 4: I like the price on pertal there at six point
• 48:06
  Speaker 4: three k. Vuksvich I think somebody said vuksuvic is how
• 48:12
  Speaker 4: how you pronounce it? He's mind price three point five k.
• 48:16
  Speaker 4: So if he's starting, that's probably the guy you're filling
• 48:18
  Speaker 4: in your center spot. The same thing for Brooklyn and Boston.
• 48:22
  Speaker 4: Don't like that game. And then Indiana and Cleveland looks
• 48:24
  Speaker 4: a lot worse sun Fandel as well.
• 48:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think the Indiana obviously is the first one
• 48:30
  Speaker 2: that goes off at seven. You could probably fade that
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: one as well. There's a couple of pieces if you
• 48:35
  Speaker 2: want to do that.
• 48:36
  Speaker 3: All right. We also, what's the top spind up not
• 48:38
  Speaker 3: named Joker on this slate tonight.
• 48:41
  Speaker 4: I don't know if I would even say he's a
• 48:43
  Speaker 4: top spend up just with the pricing considered. Uh So,
• 48:49
  Speaker 4: we're just doing like nine k plus then.
• 48:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, non k to ten K. I know
• 48:54
  Speaker 3: there's nobody at ten k, but yeah, in that range.
• 48:58
  Speaker 4: I think just from like a pure upside and game
• 49:00
  Speaker 4: environment and role standpoint, I would probably say Josh giddy
• 49:04
  Speaker 4: at nine point five k.
• 49:06
  Speaker 3: Just giddy. Even with Kobe still you're still okay with him.
• 49:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm not too worried about him, like dipping off
• 49:14
  Speaker 4: in a really big way with Kobe out. Like I said,
• 49:17
  Speaker 4: I think that just makes the overall offensive efficiency a
• 49:20
  Speaker 4: lot better, and his numbers from a point per minute
• 49:23
  Speaker 4: standpoint actually get a little bit better this season with
• 49:25
  Speaker 4: Kobe on the court. Granted it's a small sample size,
• 49:28
  Speaker 4: but he he does improve the offense, Like the assist
• 49:32
  Speaker 4: numbers are going to look a lot better with Kobe
• 49:34
  Speaker 4: on the court.
• 49:35
  Speaker 2: Nice and then, Andrew, we covered this a little bit
• 49:38
  Speaker 2: earlier during this game. I mean, three raptors at the most,
• 49:41
  Speaker 2: but make sure you go back and listen to that.
• 49:43
  Speaker 3: There's certain ones that you want.
• 49:44
  Speaker 2: Then if you have three, you're gonna want one of
• 49:47
  Speaker 2: Sorrow or Keishawn George in your lineup in Rio preferred
• 49:50
  Speaker 2: Keyshawn George. All Right, last question, before we get out
• 49:53
  Speaker 2: of here, give us a give us a slate breaker tonight.
• 49:56
  Speaker 2: Let's go somebody under ten percent rio that no one
• 49:59
  Speaker 2: else is playing, that's going to break this light tonight.
• 50:02
  Speaker 3: It's going to be on the winner.
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 50:09
  Speaker 5: Let me see here, I got to sort by ownership.
• 50:20
  Speaker 5: Let's see what Saber has for this guy.
• 50:25
  Speaker 4: I might have to break the rule a little bit.
• 50:27
  Speaker 4: And uh, actually, no, we're good. We're good. No, No,
• 50:32
  Speaker 4: we're good. I got I got my guy because he's
• 50:33
  Speaker 4: looking at sub looking at single digit ownership and like
• 50:36
  Speaker 4: the flagship stuff and high six single entry.
• 50:40
  Speaker 3: Let's give it to us, give us the give us
• 50:42
  Speaker 3: the winner.
• 50:43
  Speaker 4: I I like BAM out of Bio a lot here.
• 50:46
  Speaker 4: Love this matchup, love the game environment. Makes a lot
• 50:49
  Speaker 4: of sense to pair Giddy with BAM and then a
• 50:51
  Speaker 4: couple of the other these guys with the value on
• 50:54
  Speaker 4: on the Miami side. I feel like that's the game
• 50:56
  Speaker 4: that I want to get the deepest into. I really
• 50:58
  Speaker 4: think that it could blow the other games out of
• 51:00
  Speaker 4: the water. And I feel like BAM just in this
• 51:02
  Speaker 4: matchup looks like a really strong option. So yeah, BAM's
• 51:04
  Speaker 4: my guy tonight.
• 51:05
  Speaker 2: Bam a K almost eight percent on. There you have it,
• 51:09
  Speaker 2: Bam and the Gidler. Good luck tonight in your contest.
• 51:13
  Speaker 2: We got you covered all weekend long over here at
• 51:15
  Speaker 2: the Nation. We got college football tomorrow. We got NBA
• 51:18
  Speaker 2: all weekend. We got Showdown NBA. We got Showdown Football
• 51:24
  Speaker 2: for Monday night. We got the main show on Sunday
