Transcript
- 0:02Speaker 1: All system's going clear.
- 0:04Speaker 2: Left, what's going on?
- 0:34Speaker 3: Everybody happy Thursday? Excited to talk through this little four
- 0:37Speaker 3: game slate. If it's four games and above, we will
- 0:40Speaker 3: be on talking to NBA. Though three or less you
- 0:43Speaker 3: will just get the normal written contents. And as you
- 0:45Speaker 3: can see looking at the games, they are spread out.
- 0:48Speaker 3: We have seven eastern one game, two games at eightiestern,
- 0:51Speaker 3: and then one game at nine eastern. The good thing
- 0:54Speaker 3: is that Dallas, let's just sort my ownership quick. Dallas, Dallas, Dallas, Dallas, Stella.
- 1:00Speaker 3: There's a whole lot of Dallas right now popping in
- 1:02Speaker 3: some optimals and that is good because it's the last
- 1:05Speaker 3: game of the night and we do have injury news
- 1:07Speaker 3: like and like Garland Nemhard in the prior games that
- 1:12Speaker 3: you should have some roster spots to mess around with
- 1:15Speaker 3: things if they are ruled out. So I think it's
- 1:17Speaker 3: a solid slight, I will say, though I will not
- 1:19Speaker 3: be playing, I will be next door at the Cardinals
- 1:21Speaker 3: stadium watching some Miami Ole Miss college football semi finals.
- 1:26Speaker 3: Are super pumped for that. Good luck to our man
- 1:28Speaker 3: Hammock in the live final. He will be there in
- 1:30Speaker 3: a suite looking for a lot of money. I don't
- 1:32Speaker 3: even know what first place is, but ten people left
- 1:34Speaker 3: awesome stuff there, real college football and four NBA games,
- 1:38Speaker 3: and I have pretty good Thursday.
- 1:40Speaker 1: Yeah, shout out to Hamhock.
- 1:41Speaker 4: I didn't even know that that was going on, but
- 1:43Speaker 4: I remember talking to some of the DraftKings guys saying
- 1:46Speaker 4: they wanted to get the college football product a lot more,
- 1:49Speaker 4: bigger prize pools and bigger live final things like that.
- 1:53Speaker 1: So that's pretty cool to see. Yeah, not really much
- 1:56Speaker 1: to say.
- 1:56Speaker 4: I feel like yesterday's show was pretty good with me
- 2:00Speaker 4: and me and Mattflick. We hit on a lot of
- 2:02Speaker 4: the the right parts. I had one team in eight
- 2:05Speaker 4: I played five and eight eight eight last night, and
- 2:07Speaker 4: had one that was looking really good at halftime. Over
- 2:10Speaker 4: those later games I had. I think I had the
- 2:12Speaker 4: most PMR remaining of anybody ahead.
- 2:14Speaker 1: Of me, but I had.
- 2:16Speaker 4: It was kind of a weirdly constructed roster. I had
- 2:18Speaker 4: aj Mitchell and Wiggins. Both those guys did pretty well,
- 2:22Speaker 4: and then I had Devin Booker and Gigi Jackson, and
- 2:25Speaker 4: Booker got like eight Fantasy points in the second half,
- 2:28Speaker 4: and then gg got benched and then also played like
- 2:31Speaker 4: a four minute stint and then got pulled, So it
- 2:33Speaker 4: was kind of kind of weird. But he's still happy
- 2:36Speaker 4: with the process. But it was a tough runout, a.
- 2:39Speaker 5: Lot better than mine.
- 2:40Speaker 3: I think I was. My bubble was all the way
- 2:42Speaker 3: to the left. I do know that for sure. I
- 2:44Speaker 3: liked where I was at. Yeah, when you played who
- 2:48Speaker 3: did I play? Jack Landell? Was absolutely garbage and I
- 2:52Speaker 3: faded Paul Reed, I played Stewart. There was someone else
- 2:55Speaker 3: that that just didn't get the job done. I was
- 2:57Speaker 3: way way far to the left. But that was a
- 2:58Speaker 3: solid contest. Hundred fifty people, two fifty up top.
- 3:02Speaker 1: I like it.
- 3:02Speaker 3: Gotta say high to people. But yeah, first, all days
- 3:05Speaker 3: I am. I threw in I think thirty teams right
- 3:08Speaker 3: before I came on. So yeah, we'll were playing the
- 3:10Speaker 3: two gamer and the showdown cided for that. We got
- 3:13Speaker 3: Little Neck go collect Jordan, Jason Turner, coach Gane Green
- 3:18Speaker 3: all day, Jake, appreciate everyone hanging out, hope everybody.
- 3:22Speaker 5: Yeah, Ivy, I had j and Ivy too.
- 3:24Speaker 3: He didn't do shit, but hey, new Day New Slates
- 3:27Speaker 3: four games on tap any broad slate overview for before
- 3:31Speaker 3: we go game by game just besides some important Q tags.
- 3:35Speaker 4: Yeah, something that I did want to kind of lead
- 3:37Speaker 4: off with is the scheduling for the NBA has been
- 3:40Speaker 4: pretty condensed over the last week or two, and there's
- 3:43Speaker 4: been a lot of teams. Yesterday was pretty brutal, with
- 3:46Speaker 4: some teams being on the front end and back end
- 3:48Speaker 4: of back to backs and then you're seeing some really wonky,
- 3:52Speaker 4: like out of leftfield rotations tonight. I could see some
- 3:55Speaker 4: stuff like that happening again. I believe Chicago is one
- 3:58Speaker 4: of the teams on the back end of a back back,
- 4:00Speaker 4: same with Charlotte and then Utah as well. The Utah
- 4:04Speaker 4: one is kind of the biggest question mark because we
- 4:07Speaker 4: do we do have a couple of Q tags that
- 4:10Speaker 4: could change things. But Keyance and Laurie played a ton
- 4:14Speaker 4: of minutes last night, so I could see a situation
- 4:17Speaker 4: where they play a little bit less than normal, which
- 4:19Speaker 4: could kind of make that team just not very valuable
- 4:22Speaker 4: for DFS in particular. But the Charlotte one is is
- 4:26Speaker 4: one I could see going a little weird, mainly with
- 4:28Speaker 4: LaMelo because his minutes have been kind of all over
- 4:31Speaker 4: the place. But I think I think Chicago probably plays
- 4:35Speaker 4: it pretty straight up, pretty straightforward, but just something to know,
- 4:38Speaker 4: because I feel like a lot of us has kind
- 4:40Speaker 4: of got burned this past week with the back to
- 4:42Speaker 4: backs and situations where we felt pretty confident in did
- 4:46Speaker 4: not turn out that way.
- 4:47Speaker 1: So I just want to keep that in mind.
- 4:49Speaker 5: Yeah, that makes a lot of sense.
- 4:50Speaker 3: We'll get right into this first game talking about Charlotte
- 4:52Speaker 3: after I say hi to our man trucker, Michael Justin
- 4:57Speaker 3: and yeah, that's it. Already said hi to Jordan. Yeah,
- 4:59Speaker 3: Stewart did well. One of the guys that I played
- 5:01Speaker 3: as well that we're going to talk about Khan Can
- 5:03Speaker 3: Nipple a little disappointing, but all right, let's go to
- 5:06Speaker 3: the first game of the nights. We are looking at
- 5:09Speaker 3: the Pacers and the Charlotte Hornets two thirty two and
- 5:10Speaker 3: a half total.
- 5:12Speaker 5: Four and a half point favorites are the Hornets.
- 5:14Speaker 3: Looking at the Charlotte side, no Ryan Kulkbrenner, which has
- 5:18Speaker 3: been the same recently. Diabade should start at center, solid
- 5:22Speaker 3: game yesterday. As far as the Pacers side, no Benedict
- 5:24Speaker 3: Mathern again, a lot of usage to go around Andrew
- 5:27Speaker 3: Nemhart questionable. That's very big injury news that we will
- 5:31Speaker 3: get before lock.
- 5:32Speaker 5: I think TJ. McConnell would be.
- 5:34Speaker 6: A very very good play and make some of the
- 5:36Speaker 6: nice miss the Oakham's hostibly better as well.
- 5:39Speaker 5: Effort.
- 5:40Speaker 6: That's a really big piece of news that we have
- 5:42Speaker 6: to kick it off in them heart but yeah, we
- 5:44Speaker 6: will get that an hour before Take it away Pacers
- 5:46Speaker 6: and the Hornet.
- 5:48Speaker 4: Yeah, like you said, them hard downgrade could definitely open
- 5:50Speaker 4: up a good amount of value. Obviously, TJ mcconne would
- 5:53Speaker 4: be the guy that people look to. I would not
- 5:55Speaker 4: anticipate that he's going to start. They've been keeping him
- 5:58Speaker 4: off the bench in situations like this in the past,
- 6:01Speaker 4: probably playing more so like twenty four to twenty five
- 6:05Speaker 4: minutes versus like his normal nineteen to twenty So it's
- 6:07Speaker 4: not really that big of an upgrade for him, but
- 6:10Speaker 4: I think you will see a really large usage role
- 6:13Speaker 4: when he is on the court. I do like this
- 6:15Speaker 4: game from a game secing perspective a little bit, even
- 6:17Speaker 4: with Charlotte being on the back to back. I think
- 6:19Speaker 4: that you can kind of just get away from LaMelo
- 6:21Speaker 4: and play into some of these other guys. But these
- 6:23Speaker 4: two teams are playing pretty bad defensively, mainly the Pacers.
- 6:28Speaker 4: Pacers are bottom three in defense over the last two
- 6:30Speaker 4: weeks and twenty third in offense. The Hornets are thirteenth
- 6:33Speaker 4: in defense, so they're actually playing pretty well. They had
- 6:35Speaker 4: the huge win over OKC and just playing all around
- 6:39Speaker 4: pretty good basketball right now. But they are twenty fifth
- 6:41Speaker 4: in offense. So there's a chance that if the value
- 6:43Speaker 4: doesn't hit the right way, this game could disappoint because
- 6:46Speaker 4: these are just two not very good offensive teams. But
- 6:50Speaker 4: I do think that the main appeal from this game
- 6:52Speaker 4: would just become would come from the potential value on
- 6:54Speaker 4: both sides. I was honestly expecting Lamelosy it listed with
- 6:57Speaker 4: some sort of injury, but it looks like he's not
- 6:59Speaker 4: on the injury report, So a pretty healthy team from
- 7:04Speaker 4: that perspective. But yeah, but defensively, both teams kind of
- 7:08Speaker 4: play the same style of defense. They're pretty big room funnels.
- 7:11Speaker 4: Pacers are first in a three point defense and towards
- 7:15Speaker 4: the bottom in rim defense. I think the Hornets are
- 7:18Speaker 4: twenty fifth in rim frequency defensively, so teams are getting
- 7:22Speaker 4: to the basket at the twenty fifth highest rate or
- 7:25Speaker 4: maybe like six highest something like that, and Pacers are
- 7:28Speaker 4: just behind them.
- 7:29Speaker 1: So it sets up pretty.
- 7:30Speaker 4: Well for the Bigs on both teams and then whoever's
- 7:32Speaker 4: going to be driving the ball to the basket. So
- 7:35Speaker 4: if them Hart is in, I think Siakam.
- 7:38Speaker 1: Is the only guy.
- 7:39Speaker 4: That not the only guy, but he stands out in
- 7:41Speaker 4: it kind of a big way tonight. Normally, on any
- 7:44Speaker 4: slate bigger than this one, i'd be avoiding him just
- 7:46Speaker 4: because he doesn't generally have the upside to break the slate,
- 7:49Speaker 4: but on a four game slate with a lot of
- 7:52Speaker 4: question marks in some of the other games matchup wise
- 7:55Speaker 4: and then just playing time wise for like like you
- 7:58Speaker 4: can make the case that has some downside minutes risk
- 8:03Speaker 4: if they do blow out Utah and then Jewish Randall
- 8:07Speaker 4: Mobley don't really have great matchups. I kind of think
- 8:09Speaker 4: that Siakam is the standout in that eight K range
- 8:13Speaker 4: at power Forward, so I like him the most for
- 8:15Speaker 4: Indie Tonight and after him, I don't really like Nemhard
- 8:20Speaker 4: at this price tag and coming in with.
- 8:22Speaker 1: A Q tag.
- 8:23Speaker 4: I kind of imagine that would be that'd mean he's
- 8:25Speaker 4: somewhat limited, But either way, I don't really think he's
- 8:29Speaker 4: worthy of the seven K price tag. I do like
- 8:32Speaker 4: Aaron Nesmith though a good bit there was like some
- 8:35Speaker 4: talk about his usage rate not really being something that
- 8:38Speaker 4: could sustain, because he had like a twenty eight percent
- 8:40Speaker 4: usage rate in the first game that Matherin missed, and
- 8:42Speaker 4: there was some question marks there. Next game he posted
- 8:45Speaker 4: a twenty five percent usage rates. So I kind of
- 8:47Speaker 4: think that he's gonna be a guy that just holds
- 8:50Speaker 4: onto this higher usage role as long as.
- 8:51Speaker 1: Ben Nicc Matherin is out.
- 8:53Speaker 4: So I like him the second most behind Siakam. If
- 8:56Speaker 4: I knew that nemhard were to be in, and then
- 8:58Speaker 4: obviously if Nemharden misses, were looking at TJ McConnell as
- 9:01Speaker 4: a borderline lock at his price tag, just with how
- 9:04Speaker 4: good of a permanent producer he has been with them
- 9:06Speaker 4: hard off the court, and then Jay Huff assuming that
- 9:09Speaker 4: he starts again, I think people think he's going to start.
- 9:11Speaker 4: That's what's projected because he did start last game. There's
- 9:14Speaker 4: a chance that it could be because of the matchup
- 9:16Speaker 4: versus the really big front court in Cleveland last game,
- 9:20Speaker 4: but he did well, played thirty minutes, was pretty solid
- 9:22Speaker 4: in the minutes. I kind of view him more as
- 9:25Speaker 4: like a three point threat, a guy that's gonna be
- 9:27Speaker 4: around around the three point line. A little bit more,
- 9:29Speaker 4: but he does have some scoring abilly around the basket,
- 9:33Speaker 4: mainly just got a really unique dunk package that can
- 9:36Speaker 4: get him some easy buckets. But Diaboate is not that
- 9:39Speaker 4: great of a rint protector. And then on the other side,
- 9:42Speaker 4: when diabotse is or anybody is trying to score around
- 9:45Speaker 4: the basket, that could lead to some more block opportunities
- 9:48Speaker 4: for Ja Huff. So I think that he's pretty solid
- 9:51Speaker 4: and another guy to keep an eye on. Our guy
- 9:52Speaker 4: Jordan Nuan sit on him last game. But Johnny Furphy,
- 9:55Speaker 4: this is his He's only started five games as a pro.
- 9:59Speaker 4: There is yet Johnny Furfey, He's only started five games
- 10:03Speaker 4: as a pro, so kind of coming along steadily. I
- 10:05Speaker 4: think he's definitely got to keep an eye on because
- 10:07Speaker 4: he does have a bit of talent, really athletic and
- 10:10Speaker 4: a pretty solid rebounder. So I kind of have a
- 10:12Speaker 4: little bit of interest there as just like a pivot
- 10:15Speaker 4: at the forward dish range of guys that are going
- 10:18Speaker 4: to be really chalking in the Dallas game.
- 10:21Speaker 5: And then also any nam hard News do anything for Furfey.
- 10:25Speaker 1: Not really, I don't.
- 10:26Speaker 4: I don't think there's like enough of a sample size
- 10:28Speaker 4: to know what type of role change he would have.
- 10:32Speaker 4: I was gonna say, though, Jariss Walker would be a
- 10:33Speaker 4: guy that could benefit a little bit if Hard were
- 10:35Speaker 4: to be out, because I do look to him at
- 10:37Speaker 4: times for some ball handling. That's where the Charlotte side
- 10:41Speaker 4: not playing Lamelow on a back to back, just with
- 10:44Speaker 4: the unknown in his minutes. I like Miles Bridges a lot,
- 10:47Speaker 4: though good price tag playing a good amount of minutes,
- 10:50Speaker 4: and this is kind.
- 10:50Speaker 1: Of the matchup that you want to see for him.
- 10:52Speaker 4: He's a guy that is he has been seeing like
- 10:55Speaker 4: slight uptick in his three point volume this season, but
- 10:57Speaker 4: I think he's better when he is attacking the basket.
- 11:00Speaker 4: The Pacers do struggle against wings that have like his
- 11:03Speaker 4: type of archetypes, so I think that he's pretty solid.
- 11:06Speaker 4: And then Brandon Miller off the injury report. I think
- 11:08Speaker 4: that he was just being managed last game. I don't
- 11:09Speaker 4: think it was like a true injury, so probably expect
- 11:12Speaker 4: him back to fool another guy that profiles pretty well.
- 11:16Speaker 1: He's kind of like a three level scores.
- 11:17Speaker 4: I think that if the three point shot is not
- 11:19Speaker 4: really there, he can easily drive to the basket. I
- 11:21Speaker 4: don't love the matchup for Kahn for that reason, Pacers
- 11:25Speaker 4: are first in three point defense. He's kind of more
- 11:27Speaker 4: of the catch and shoot guy, so I think I'll
- 11:29Speaker 4: probably lower on him and higher on Miller and Bridges.
- 11:32Speaker 4: And then Diabati, I think is in a really really
- 11:34Speaker 4: good spot here with the Pacers being one of the
- 11:36Speaker 4: biggest room funnels. Huff is a good shot blocker, like
- 11:40Speaker 4: I said, but not really that great of a room protector.
- 11:42Speaker 4: Diaboatee is not going to take a lot of shots,
- 11:44Speaker 4: but he's gonna get a ton of rebounds. The Pacers
- 11:47Speaker 4: are the Hornets are towards the bottom of the league
- 11:50Speaker 4: and or Pacers excuse me, towards the bottom of the
- 11:52Speaker 4: league and rebounding as well. So pretty good spot for him.
- 11:54Speaker 4: If he can somehow luck his way into a double double,
- 11:56Speaker 4: then you're looking pretty good there.
- 11:58Speaker 3: You're fine playing Diabaatee and half right like center's strong,
- 12:01Speaker 3: but AD's power forward, which is nice.
- 12:03Speaker 1: Yeah, I'd be fine with that tonight.
- 12:05Speaker 3: Yeah, I think, I mean center when we get to
- 12:07Speaker 3: vooch Bam, Like, center's actually pretty good. But those are
- 12:10Speaker 3: two of the cheapest centers that you're probably looking at.
- 12:13Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, you're the expert.
- 12:15Speaker 3: I don't really got more like I will, like if
- 12:17Speaker 3: con seven percent, I'm just always find playing them sixty
- 12:20Speaker 3: four hundred. He's a hooper. So if that's a true
- 12:25Speaker 3: number him, who is the other one? I think we
- 12:27Speaker 3: were showing. Yeah, Bridges six percent, Miller eighteen a little more,
- 12:31Speaker 3: but just connon Bridge is at that ownership four game slight.
- 12:34Speaker 3: You do have to be more like weary about ownership.
- 12:38Speaker 3: You actually have to focus on roster construction and getting
- 12:40Speaker 3: someone maybe a little low owned in there.
- 12:42Speaker 5: He has upside. But you make a good point about
- 12:45Speaker 5: the matchup.
- 12:46Speaker 3: If them heart's out, is there any rules you would
- 12:50Speaker 3: make for the pacer stuff? And like how many is
- 12:53Speaker 3: too many? I don't think we're going overboard. I mean
- 12:55Speaker 3: Dallas is in the nut spot.
- 12:57Speaker 1: No PJ.
- 12:57Speaker 3: Washington against the Jazz, which ever wants to play I like,
- 13:00Speaker 3: but they're going to be extremely chalky. And also you
- 13:03Speaker 3: do have ant questionable Garland questionable. So the more spots
- 13:07Speaker 3: you lock up early, the less room you have to maneuver.
- 13:11Speaker 3: But there's no doubt that, like I mean TJ especially,
- 13:15Speaker 3: but some of these pacers would become pretty good plays
- 13:17Speaker 3: without memo hard and they're fine even with them, so
- 13:20Speaker 3: too many if he is to be out.
- 13:22Speaker 4: I would say three is a good number to to
- 13:25Speaker 4: be maxing for the Pacers, and I probably wouldn't want
- 13:29Speaker 4: more than one of like Quintin Jackson and Tjer McConnell.
- 13:35Speaker 1: Are you I think I was? I was laughing at
- 13:37Speaker 1: the comments.
- 13:38Speaker 3: Is funny, you know, it's definitely not getting due, but
- 13:42Speaker 3: the whole lineup of white guys, and this guy goes
- 13:45Speaker 3: a lot of white guys playing tonight on the short slate.
- 13:50Speaker 4: Yeah, I would be Max one of Quintin Jackson and TJ.
- 13:54Speaker 4: I would probably be like a Max two of two
- 14:01Speaker 4: of I mean, I'm not playing Ben Shephard. I think
- 14:03Speaker 4: if you are in the ship at Discord, you know
- 14:06Speaker 4: I'm not playing him, so I don't even consider him,
- 14:08Speaker 4: but probably be Max. It would definitely it's always gonna
- 14:11Speaker 4: be Max one of Potter and Jay Huff. I don'tso
- 14:14Speaker 4: think it's just Max one of t Jing and QJ
- 14:16Speaker 4: and Quintin or yeah, TJ, Quentin Jackson and then Max
- 14:19Speaker 4: one of the Biggs. And that's enough because I'm not
- 14:22Speaker 4: gonna go too overboard with the Pacers exposure tonight.
- 14:25Speaker 3: So pre flap before you even build one hundred and
- 14:27Speaker 3: fifty teams. You're just clicking that uncheck on Ben Shepherd
- 14:30Speaker 3: if even if nem Hart's out.
- 14:32Speaker 4: I do that every single slate that the Pacers are on.
- 14:35Speaker 1: He's the first guy on click.
- 14:37Speaker 3: All right, I love it. I got nothing more to
- 14:38Speaker 3: add in this one. We'll keep it rolling next game.
- 14:41Speaker 3: On the slates important for injury News Cleveland Cavaliers and
- 14:44Speaker 3: the Minnesota Timberwolves two and a half point favorites of
- 14:47Speaker 3: the Timberwolves two thirty seven and a half total in
- 14:49Speaker 3: this one. Injuries on the Cleveland side, no Dean Wade
- 14:53Speaker 3: and again Garland's questionable and Larry Nance's questionable. Garland News
- 14:57Speaker 3: definitely important and Ants on the other side, he's questionable.
- 15:00Speaker 3: I believe they said injury maintenance. He was questionable two
- 15:03Speaker 3: days ago when we were on the show We dig
- 15:06Speaker 3: It News. He was in gets the Davion Mitchell stuff. Yeah,
- 15:09Speaker 3: I'm not sure if you really have any lean I
- 15:12Speaker 3: guess at this point, I'm just going to keep thinking
- 15:14Speaker 3: ants in until they start ruling them out. But yeah,
- 15:18Speaker 3: you'll have roster spots. You'll have a lot of Dallas
- 15:20Speaker 3: guys in your lineup and then if ants out Garland's out,
- 15:23Speaker 3: you do or you will be able to adjust. But
- 15:26Speaker 3: there's no doubt the Dallas stuff will remain elite regardless
- 15:29Speaker 3: of the of the other injury news.
- 15:30Speaker 5: So break it down t Wolves and the Calves.
- 15:34Speaker 4: I feel like this game is better for viewing purposes
- 15:36Speaker 4: than it would be for DFS. But I will say
- 15:38Speaker 4: that the over under is pretty solid two thirty seven,
- 15:42Speaker 4: only two and a half points spread, so it should
- 15:45Speaker 4: be competitive throughout. And these teams generally do run pretty
- 15:48Speaker 4: tight rotation, so I think that some of the spend
- 15:51Speaker 4: ups in this game are pretty good. But both these
- 15:54Speaker 4: teams are playing really good defense right now. The Calves
- 15:57Speaker 4: are six in defense over the last two weeks, Wolves
- 16:00Speaker 4: are eighth. But the issue for Cleveland, which is why
- 16:03Speaker 4: I think Minnesota could win this game. Cleveland is twentieth
- 16:07Speaker 4: on offense over that span, Minnesota's third offensively, so I'm
- 16:11Speaker 4: given the edge to Minnesota here just from like a
- 16:13Speaker 4: betting perspective, I feel like they should be favored and
- 16:15Speaker 4: probably win this game. There's really not a ton of
- 16:19Speaker 4: weaknesses from these teams defensively. The main thing for both
- 16:22Speaker 4: is kind of their guard defense. I would say that
- 16:25Speaker 4: Ant and Donovan Mitchell, the two premier guards on the slate,
- 16:28Speaker 4: are in really good spots here. Minnesota's bottom three and
- 16:32Speaker 4: pick and roll defense this year should be an area
- 16:34Speaker 4: that Donovan Mitchell is able to exploit.
- 16:36Speaker 1: So I like him a good bit.
- 16:37Speaker 4: Don't really worry too much about the matchup versus Jaden McDaniels.
- 16:40Speaker 4: He was solid verse to them last season, average fifty
- 16:42Speaker 4: one DK points per game against them, so he's the
- 16:45Speaker 4: guy I'm looking to on the Cleveland side after him, though,
- 16:48Speaker 4: I have a slight preference of Jared Allen over Evan
- 16:52Speaker 4: Moby tonight, and the main reason is Jared Allen was
- 16:55Speaker 4: pretty banged up coming into this the season and then
- 16:58Speaker 4: had like the stretch where he was missing a lot
- 16:59Speaker 4: of games he had a finger injury. Wasn't getting a
- 17:01Speaker 4: lot of paint touches, probably because the injury, But the
- 17:04Speaker 4: paint touches are kind of back a little bit while
- 17:07Speaker 4: I do. I am a guy that beats the drum
- 17:10Speaker 4: for Rudy Gobert being one of the best rim protectors
- 17:13Speaker 4: in overall center defenders in the league. The Wolves are
- 17:17Speaker 4: bottom four against pick and roll rollman, so if you
- 17:20Speaker 4: get that pick and roll action going and leads to
- 17:23Speaker 4: some open shots for Jared Allen and maybe even some
- 17:25Speaker 4: playmaking opportunities. Then I think he's pretty solid. Rudy Gobert
- 17:29Speaker 4: is not gonna pull him away from the basket either,
- 17:31Speaker 4: so it should be plenty of opportunities for rebounds. So
- 17:33Speaker 4: I think that he's a little bit better than Mobley tonight.
- 17:38Speaker 4: And yeah, I don't know. I was really high in
- 17:39Speaker 4: Mobile last game. He was okay, not great. I expected
- 17:43Speaker 4: a pretty big game out of him. I don't think
- 17:45Speaker 4: that's gonna happen tonight versus a much better Minnesota Wolves defense.
- 17:49Speaker 4: I'll be underweight him, and he's looking like he's getting
- 17:51Speaker 4: some ownership. I do prefer Sakham to Mobley tonight. And
- 17:55Speaker 4: then also if Daris Garlanboerd have missed, that is another
- 17:57Speaker 4: plus for Donovan Mitchell. I mean it's a plus for everybody.
- 18:00Speaker 4: Mobilely would project a little bit better, Alan's going to
- 18:02Speaker 4: project better. Craig Ford Junior would project really good as well,
- 18:06Speaker 4: which would kind of be an interesting talking point because
- 18:08Speaker 4: I don't think that he's going to start. I feel
- 18:10Speaker 4: like they would probably just slide Donovan Mitchell to the
- 18:13Speaker 4: point guard and then Jaalen Tyson in the starting lineup
- 18:15Speaker 4: alongside Sam Merrill.
- 18:17Speaker 1: But Craig Port Jr.
- 18:18Speaker 4: Would get those backup point guard minutes. And I mean,
- 18:21Speaker 4: he's just a really really good I think he's a
- 18:23Speaker 4: good player in general, Like he's kind of lanky for
- 18:27Speaker 4: a point guard, really good rebounder, good passer, So I
- 18:30Speaker 4: would have a lot of interest in him. Yeah, I
- 18:35Speaker 4: think that would kind of cover I'm not really getting
- 18:37Speaker 4: to Garland tonight though. I just don't think that he's great.
- 18:39Speaker 4: With Donovan Mitchell back, I'd just rather kind of condense
- 18:42Speaker 4: my playpool and get to a lot of Spider and
- 18:45Speaker 4: Jared Allen. And then, like I said, Craig Port Jr.
- 18:47Speaker 4: If Garland is out, is really really good, really interesting.
- 18:50Speaker 4: And then on the Wolf side, Ant is the guy,
- 18:54Speaker 4: but we don't really know. I think if he's if
- 18:55Speaker 4: he's in, he's playing full minutes like it's an injury maintenance,
- 18:58Speaker 4: not like an injury tag. They're just trying to find
- 19:00Speaker 4: games for him to get off. I feel like the
- 19:03Speaker 4: spread indicates he's gonna play, so I would probably anticipate
- 19:07Speaker 4: he is playing, like him the most on the Wolves side.
- 19:10Speaker 4: And then I do like I think Randall is second.
- 19:13Speaker 4: It's all it's pretty close between the rest of the
- 19:16Speaker 4: guys on the Wolves. Like I think Randal, Rudy, and
- 19:19Speaker 4: Dante are all in decent spots for different reason. For Randall,
- 19:24Speaker 4: I just don't really think that I'm too worried off
- 19:26Speaker 4: about the matchup against Evan Mobley. The Cavs kind of
- 19:28Speaker 4: struggle against big wings like Julius Randall. Last year he
- 19:32Speaker 4: went for fifty three and a half DK points in
- 19:34Speaker 4: one game versus Cleveland. Wants to shove out the triple double,
- 19:37Speaker 4: so he's pretty good. The thing for Rudy go Bear's
- 19:40Speaker 4: he's just playing so well right now, and I think
- 19:42Speaker 4: they're gonna need more minutes out of him.
- 19:43Speaker 1: I liked nas in the last game because I.
- 19:45Speaker 4: Feel like you needed more floor spacing against Miami. But
- 19:49Speaker 4: with the two bigs on the Cleveland side, I think
- 19:51Speaker 4: that you need more size and rim protection. So it
- 19:53Speaker 4: kind of checks all the boxes for Rudy Gobert playing
- 19:56Speaker 4: more minutes tonight, so I like him. I think he's
- 19:59Speaker 4: still kind of under at his price tag. And then
- 20:02Speaker 4: for Dante, I think that he's a little reliant on
- 20:07Speaker 4: Daris Garland playing because I feel like if Daris Garland
- 20:10Speaker 4: is in, Dante would get that assignment on defense, and
- 20:13Speaker 4: that'd be a spot i'd really look to attack. I
- 20:15Speaker 4: think that if Garland is out, you're replacing him with
- 20:17Speaker 4: a couple of better defenders like Jalen Tyson and Craig
- 20:20Speaker 4: Port Junior. So I would think that it's a neutral
- 20:22Speaker 4: to a slightly below average matchup for Dante. The thing
- 20:25Speaker 4: I do like about Dante though, I like his three
- 20:27Speaker 4: point prop Because the Cavs are allowing nearly four and
- 20:30Speaker 4: a half threes per game to point guards over the
- 20:32Speaker 4: last seven Dante's extremely streaky, so I wouldn't I don't.
- 20:36Speaker 4: I'm not super confident in it, like he's gonna take
- 20:38Speaker 4: a ton, but could easily go one for eleven or
- 20:41Speaker 4: six for eleven. I don't really think there's like an
- 20:44Speaker 4: in between there and then I'm off. Jada McDaniel's usage
- 20:48Speaker 4: has been really down as of late. It has not
- 20:49Speaker 4: topped to twenty percent usage rates since December twenty first,
- 20:52Speaker 4: so don't really think that his role is warranted of
- 20:56Speaker 4: somebody that's priced at five point eight K.
- 20:58Speaker 3: I think they go Bear shouts the most interesting because
- 21:01Speaker 3: of how good center is, but he's gonna be like
- 21:03Speaker 3: completely forgotten. We're showing five percent right here. I think
- 21:06Speaker 3: that is pretty interesting. On the other side, like man,
- 21:11Speaker 3: I think D. Mitch is probably one of the best
- 21:13Speaker 3: plays on the slate if there is no Garland. I mean,
- 21:15Speaker 3: he's just severely underpriced. Is the ball is always in
- 21:18Speaker 3: his hand. And I love that he's shooting guard eligible
- 21:21Speaker 3: because if he's out and Nemhart's out, McConnell's point guard.
- 21:25Speaker 3: We had Craig Porter Junior who's point guard, and those
- 21:28Speaker 3: are probably two of the best plays on the slate.
- 21:30Speaker 3: If you are playing another point guard, it's gonna have
- 21:32Speaker 3: to be at the utahl position. And there are a
- 21:34Speaker 3: decent amount of good big men on this slate, So
- 21:37Speaker 3: like I think Craig Porter TJ. McConnell will be two
- 21:41Speaker 3: of the first guys I probably put in my lineup.
- 21:43Speaker 5: And then I love D.
- 21:44Speaker 3: Mitch And that's assuming Nemhard and Garland's out. I don't
- 21:48Speaker 3: really got much more. I think I like go Bear
- 21:51Speaker 3: more than Jarrett if I had to pick, And then
- 21:54Speaker 3: I think you're Randall shouts pretty interesting too, just in
- 21:57Speaker 3: the sense of when people are spending up on the slate.
- 22:00Speaker 3: Assuming I guess all these guys are in right now.
- 22:01Speaker 3: Anthony Davis will be the first one and Cooper Flag
- 22:04Speaker 3: will be the second. Like I think it's and that's both.
- 22:07Speaker 3: I mean, Cooper Flag has every single position eligibility, but
- 22:10Speaker 3: for ad it's power forward and center. So I think
- 22:13Speaker 3: Randall's a solid pivot in that one. Like you mentioned
- 22:15Speaker 3: in terms of like you said, a lot more appealing
- 22:18Speaker 3: real life game than fantasy. This is just sorting my ownership.
- 22:21Speaker 3: The lowest own game on the slate and the more
- 22:24Speaker 3: pieces you lock early. Well, I guess yeah, this is
- 22:28Speaker 3: the the Ant Garlin game in terms of news, so
- 22:31Speaker 3: you'll just naturally have a lot of this late game.
- 22:33Speaker 3: You can pivot some of it to this game if
- 22:35Speaker 3: they're out. But yeah, I don't love it nearly as
- 22:37Speaker 3: much as the first game that we talked about, or
- 22:39Speaker 3: this game or the Dallas Utah. This game's getting some ownership,
- 22:43Speaker 3: but it feels like it's like five guys, four guys,
- 22:46Speaker 3: and that's it. We're talking the Chicago Bulls and the
- 22:49Speaker 3: Miami Heat. We are looking at another two thirty seven
- 22:54Speaker 3: and a half. A lot of big totals in this
- 22:55Speaker 3: two thirty two and a half two games two thirty
- 22:57Speaker 3: seven and a half in the last game two forty
- 23:00Speaker 3: one and a half, but we have seven to that point.
- 23:02Speaker 3: Favorites are the Heat, which is the biggest favorites on
- 23:04Speaker 3: the slate in terms of injury news. Chicago's banged up,
- 23:07Speaker 3: no Josh Giddy, no Jalen Smith, and then Kevin Herder
- 23:12Speaker 3: is questionable. As far as the other side in the Heat,
- 23:16Speaker 3: I'm seeing fully healthy for the Heat, so biggest favorite
- 23:19Speaker 3: seven and a half. Solid total serve my ownership, though
- 23:23Speaker 3: Bazello's Kobe White vouch all looking to get a.
- 23:25Speaker 5: Decent amount take take this game away. Bulls and the.
- 23:29Speaker 4: Heat normally would be a game that I would definitely
- 23:31Speaker 4: want to attack because like how these teams both play
- 23:34Speaker 4: up and pace. I feel like they've had some big
- 23:36Speaker 4: games earlier this season. Bulls are struggling on defense. They're
- 23:40Speaker 4: just not a good defense in general. But with Hero
- 23:43Speaker 4: and Haimi Hawk's back, like you said, the Heat are
- 23:46Speaker 4: fully healthy. So it's really tough because I don't think
- 23:48Speaker 4: that they're I don't think that their game plan when
- 23:51Speaker 4: they are fully healthy is to give guys like thirty
- 23:53Speaker 4: six thirty eight minutes. I feel like they want to
- 23:55Speaker 4: play everybody thirty to thirty two.
- 24:00Speaker 1: So yeah, I don't know.
- 24:01Speaker 4: I just there's probably gonna be somebody that goes off
- 24:04Speaker 4: for Miami. I would probably say it'd be Bam Hero
- 24:11Speaker 4: or Norm as the three guys that would are most
- 24:14Speaker 4: likely to give me Norm. Yeah, Norm future All Star.
- 24:18Speaker 4: He's uh yeah, I mean Norm's probably the best. Just
- 24:22Speaker 4: a guy that's gonna be driving to the basket. You
- 24:24Speaker 4: want to attack the bulls around the basket. I don't know,
- 24:29Speaker 4: like if we were looking at DVP numbers, you would
- 24:31Speaker 4: want Bam here. But he's kind of been really bad
- 24:33Speaker 4: form right now. He got embarrassed by Rudy Gobert. And
- 24:37Speaker 4: I don't know if you saw like the postgame interviews,
- 24:40Speaker 4: but just downplaying the effect that Rudy Gobert had the
- 24:44Speaker 4: game had on the game was just kind of funny
- 24:46Speaker 4: because he shot like I don't even know what it was,
- 24:48Speaker 4: like one his fuel goal percentage was terrible. Yeah, he
- 24:51Speaker 4: shot three for eleven against them.
- 24:53Speaker 5: I didn't see it, but Gobert.
- 24:55Speaker 3: I saw someone quote a tweet about his physical like
- 24:58Speaker 3: he had a shirt after an interview and just like how.
- 25:01Speaker 5: Ripped and stuff he is.
- 25:02Speaker 3: I don't know if you saw it, but go Beart
- 25:03Speaker 3: would beat ninety nine percent of people's ass in the NBA. Like,
- 25:07Speaker 3: this dude trains this dude. This dude is a he's
- 25:10Speaker 3: a physical stess and then when he has his shirt off,
- 25:12Speaker 3: he's just so.
- 25:12Speaker 5: Awkward on the court.
- 25:13Speaker 1: But yeah, that could.
- 25:15Speaker 5: He plays his role well.
- 25:17Speaker 3: Always will always be a meme for the the mic
- 25:20Speaker 3: stuff and the Covied stuff. Yeah, he's someone I would
- 25:24Speaker 3: want on my team for sure.
- 25:26Speaker 4: Yeah, Like I mean, coaches respect him, players respect him.
- 25:30Speaker 4: But yeah, definitely he's easy to gang up on. He's
- 25:33Speaker 4: having a what is it like year year ten offensive
- 25:36Speaker 4: breakout this this year too, so it's kind of kind
- 25:39Speaker 4: of cool to see. But he's adding some like euro
- 25:41Speaker 4: steps and three sixty dunks into his package now, so
- 25:45Speaker 4: it's pretty cool.
- 25:46Speaker 1: But yes, I don't know.
- 25:48Speaker 4: I think if there were a spot for Bam to
- 25:50Speaker 4: have a good game, it would be in in this
- 25:53Speaker 4: one versus Chicago. So I'm probably prioritizing him on Miami
- 25:58Speaker 4: a little bit more than than I also think that
- 26:01Speaker 4: Hero is kind of interesting because I think that the
- 26:04Speaker 4: plan moving forward, I don't think he's going to be
- 26:05Speaker 4: a guy that's going to be coming off.
- 26:06Speaker 1: The bench from Miami.
- 26:07Speaker 4: I feel like he will eventually take over the spot
- 26:12Speaker 4: by khalil Ware in the starting lineup.
- 26:14Speaker 1: I feel like it could happen tonight.
- 26:15Speaker 4: I also think that Hero is kind of full, so
- 26:19Speaker 4: the twenty nine minutes that he got last game is
- 26:22Speaker 4: kind of misleading because he was trending for low thirties
- 26:24Speaker 4: after they did get blown out, so it's kind of
- 26:27Speaker 4: I feel like he's closer to like thirty two now,
- 26:30Speaker 4: so I would probably whatever his full minutes would be
- 26:33Speaker 4: is what I would be projecting Matt tonight, because feel
- 26:35Speaker 4: like he's back. I also think that Andrew Wiggins is
- 26:39Speaker 4: kind of a sneaky pivot at Power Forward, mainly off
- 26:42Speaker 4: of Mantus Buzelis in the same game, because I think
- 26:44Speaker 4: people are pretty pretty excited about Buzellis to see him
- 26:47Speaker 4: as one of the higher und plays at Power Forward.
- 26:51Speaker 4: High Roun plays on the slate. Saber loves to project
- 26:55Speaker 4: Mantas really really high too, and I think that it's
- 26:58Speaker 4: I don't really know if he's worthy of that high
- 27:00Speaker 4: of a projection, mainly because the range of outcomes is
- 27:04Speaker 4: really wide for him.
- 27:05Speaker 1: Like we talked about a lot with these bull stuff.
- 27:06Speaker 4: Billy Donovan is really really hard on Bozellis, and he
- 27:09Speaker 4: said basically sad like, if he's not rebounding, he's not
- 27:11Speaker 4: gonna play, so you need him to to just basically
- 27:15Speaker 4: attacking rebounds. But it is a good spot for him
- 27:19Speaker 4: because the heat are a huge three point full on one.
- 27:21Speaker 4: I didn't even realize how how many three points three
- 27:24Speaker 4: pointers a game he's taking, but he's he's up there
- 27:26Speaker 4: a lot. So it's kind of a good spot for Buzellis.
- 27:29Speaker 4: But I think that Wiggins is kind of a decent
- 27:31Speaker 4: pivot at that same position, a little bit more expensive.
- 27:36Speaker 1: Pep.
- 27:36Speaker 4: Like I said, I think Mantas is really good. I
- 27:38Speaker 4: like Vouch too as well. I think he's shown pretty
- 27:43Speaker 4: like he can hit for big games. And I think
- 27:45Speaker 4: the main reason is with giddy out that kind of
- 27:47Speaker 4: makes him the number two option as the point guard
- 27:50Speaker 4: on the team or just like kind of like in
- 27:52Speaker 4: a Yokic type of role where he's getting a lot
- 27:54Speaker 4: of touches at the top of the key and a
- 27:57Speaker 4: lot of potential assists don't really worry too much about
- 28:00Speaker 4: the matchup versus Bam either. I think that he's going
- 28:02Speaker 4: to be playing normal minutes tonight, So I'm okay with
- 28:04Speaker 4: vouch for sure, but with Kobe White back, that kind
- 28:07Speaker 4: of takes off the upside of like Trey Jones and
- 28:09Speaker 4: Io Desumu. I do think if Herder were to miss,
- 28:12Speaker 4: that would help those guys. Not sure who they would start.
- 28:17Speaker 4: They've had Kobe coming off the bench. I think he's
- 28:19Speaker 4: probably the easiest guy to just slot in there, but
- 28:21Speaker 4: it could be could be Io. But I think Kobe's
- 28:24Speaker 4: pretty good too. He was on track to play last game.
- 28:27Speaker 4: It was a back to back, so they just said
- 28:28Speaker 4: they wanted to sit him out last night.
- 28:30Speaker 1: Playing tonight.
- 28:31Speaker 4: He sets up pretty well too for the the rim
- 28:33Speaker 4: funn or the three point final style defense at the
- 28:35Speaker 4: heat play. I think it's a pretty good spot for
- 28:38Speaker 4: Mantas and Kobe.
- 28:40Speaker 3: I definitely like your call on Hero because, like you
- 28:43Speaker 3: look at projection, Sabers got him for like twenty nine
- 28:46Speaker 3: minutes projected at thirty two. If you just bump those minutes,
- 28:49Speaker 3: what you think he's thirty three range.
- 28:52Speaker 4: I feel like thirty two is probably say well, let
- 28:55Speaker 4: me if you want to continue breaking, then I'll look
- 28:57Speaker 4: at what he was training for in that last game.
- 28:59Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I just I mean, what I like to
- 29:01Speaker 3: do is just look at where minutes. To be honest,
- 29:04Speaker 3: I probably should have this sort of a saber sin
- 29:06Speaker 3: just because it's a direct for projection, because it's a
- 29:09Speaker 3: direct correlation with their minutes. But finally, things Rio talks about,
- 29:12Speaker 3: who knows the game the ball a lot better adjusting
- 29:15Speaker 3: minutes projection. A way to do that is, yeah, I mean,
- 29:18Speaker 3: you see he's at twenty nine, you think it's thirty two,
- 29:20Speaker 3: and he's a one point one to one fantasy point
- 29:23Speaker 3: per minute guy. If you think he's getting three more minutes,
- 29:26Speaker 3: you bump it this to like thirty five point four
- 29:29Speaker 3: or five or something. Wow, he becomes a lot better.
- 29:32Speaker 3: Play ownership doesn't move. I think that's very interesting right there.
- 29:36Speaker 3: So yeah, that stood out to me. We talked about
- 29:38Speaker 3: I remember we talked about the hero stuff on Tuesday.
- 29:41Speaker 3: Unless it was with Matt belt No, I Thineah, I
- 29:43Speaker 3: think it was you and I on Tuesday. And just like,
- 29:47Speaker 3: if he's going to be right back in his main role,
- 29:49Speaker 3: I think seven point two k's two chief. I think
- 29:50Speaker 3: him and Norm probably Max one. I'd let you talk
- 29:53Speaker 3: on that, but I think both of them at ownership.
- 29:56Speaker 3: I don't not necessarily believe Norm's twenty percent on this slate,
- 29:59Speaker 3: but I thin I think they're very strong plays as
- 30:01Speaker 3: ways to get different in a mid tier build with
- 30:03Speaker 3: plenty of upside.
- 30:05Speaker 5: Buteah, go ahead. Yeah.
- 30:07Speaker 4: I mean he played a fourteen and a half minute
- 30:10Speaker 4: stint in the second half, so I don't know if
- 30:13Speaker 4: that's really indicative of what they're gonna do with him,
- 30:16Speaker 4: but yeah, I mean he's probably probably closer to like
- 30:20Speaker 4: thirty to thirty one than it would be thirty two
- 30:22Speaker 4: to thirty three. I would say, as for like the
- 30:25Speaker 4: Max one, that would probably be fine just because the
- 30:27Speaker 4: prices are so similar. I don't think that you want
- 30:31Speaker 4: a ton of bulls or a ton of a heat
- 30:32Speaker 4: on the slate.
- 30:34Speaker 3: Yeah, if you did do that, played both of them,
- 30:36Speaker 3: I probably want at least one bowl, maybe even two.
- 30:39Speaker 3: And again, the shorter the slate than more the ot
- 30:41Speaker 3: stuff keep coming to play. It is the biggest spread
- 30:44Speaker 3: on the slate at seven and a half. But yeah,
- 30:47Speaker 3: I think individually Norm and Tiro are pretty interesting at
- 30:50Speaker 3: price and ownership, and I definitely like Booch your Bizelles stuff.
- 30:54Speaker 3: I guess looking at ownership and knowing any game could
- 30:57Speaker 3: be like a minute's floor for him. If he's not
- 31:01Speaker 3: playing the way that coach wants, that's a little concerning,
- 31:03Speaker 3: but yeah, just grading out point per dollar wise without
- 31:07Speaker 3: Giddy six k, there's no doubt he's too cheap. But
- 31:10Speaker 3: Power Forward is pretty solid, honestly. And the Herder stuff,
- 31:13Speaker 3: I think that's probably more important than most people are
- 31:16Speaker 3: viewing it as IO. I mean, Trey Jones, Kobe White
- 31:19Speaker 3: already looked like solid plays. IO would become better. All
- 31:23Speaker 3: three of them would become better. That's twenty four point
- 31:25Speaker 3: twenty five points of projection, almost twenty seven minutes that'd
- 31:28Speaker 3: be taken out of the lineup. So I do think
- 31:30Speaker 3: that's actually pretty interesting too. The main news is that's
- 31:33Speaker 3: eight pm Eastern Garland, and and you can throw herd
- 31:37Speaker 3: her in that boat. Yep, yep, that's what Rio said.
- 31:40Speaker 3: It was a blood for here. Others he would have
- 31:42Speaker 3: got a couple more minutes. What's up, Matt, Good to
- 31:44Speaker 3: see you. It's all I got in this one. Anything else.
- 31:48Speaker 3: So those will jump to definitely the highest owned game
- 31:51Speaker 3: of the night in Dallas and Utah.
- 31:54Speaker 1: Uh Yeah, no, I think we're good to move on.
- 31:56Speaker 3: Highest total of the slates, Utah Jas Dallas Mavericks one
- 32:00Speaker 3: and a half only four and a half point favorites
- 32:02Speaker 3: are the Mavericks. A lot of reasons Dallas is getting
- 32:05Speaker 3: all this ownership on top of drawing the nut matchup
- 32:08Speaker 3: is PJ. Washington is doubtful, which is important for a
- 32:12Speaker 3: lot of guys, the Cooper Flaggs and Naji Marshalls, Anthony
- 32:15Speaker 3: Davis as far as Utah stuff, no use of Nurkic,
- 32:19Speaker 3: Flipkowski's back in our lives? And then Ace Bailey is questionable?
- 32:23Speaker 5: Is he questionable? Do we get out?
- 32:24Speaker 3: I don't know why I would as questionable?
- 32:28Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, Nurkic is questionable too. I don't think that
- 32:31Speaker 4: there's been any.
- 32:34Speaker 3: Oh and you're right, Yeah, you're right. I apologize. Nurkic questionable,
- 32:37Speaker 3: Ace Bailey questionable? I misspoke there. So I guess how
- 32:42Speaker 3: many lineup spots do you think? Let's say Garland's out
- 32:45Speaker 3: or one of Garland or answer out and then we'll
- 32:48Speaker 3: say them hearts out, like we're sorting by this game
- 32:50Speaker 3: in terms of ownership, this is just on the Dallas
- 32:53Speaker 3: side flag twenty five percent, five other guys all above him.
- 32:57Speaker 3: So like if all these guys are in, we'll know
- 32:59Speaker 3: that you'll probably four plus roster spots just in this
- 33:03Speaker 3: last game alone, which will make navigating the Nurkic News,
- 33:07Speaker 3: Ace Bailey News mainly Nurkic easier. But just say, like
- 33:10Speaker 3: one of Garland answer out and Themhart, like, how much
- 33:14Speaker 3: do you think that impacts ownership of this game? Or
- 33:16Speaker 3: do you just think people are gonna spend for AD
- 33:18Speaker 3: because it's really easy to do, so really easy to
- 33:20Speaker 3: spend for flag and then the more of the fringe,
- 33:23Speaker 3: cheaper guys like Brandon Williams, who's a great point guard
- 33:26Speaker 3: spot maybe he goes down and next Christy and stuff
- 33:29Speaker 3: like that.
- 33:30Speaker 5: So that's my first question. Then you can break it down.
- 33:32Speaker 3: But I mean, this game's getting all of the ownership
- 33:34Speaker 3: assuming that all these Q tags are in today.
- 33:37Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean the ownership would definitely come down a
- 33:40Speaker 4: lot on those guys. I almost hope that the Q
- 33:43Speaker 4: tags are in because I feel like these are somewhat
- 33:46Speaker 4: fragile pieces, like fragile chalk pieces, mainly because I mean
- 33:50Speaker 4: you're getting like, you know, anywhere from thirty to forty
- 33:53Speaker 4: percent on like Clay Nause Christie. I wouldn't say those
- 33:57Speaker 4: guys are smash plays by any means, I feel like
- 33:59Speaker 4: there's ways to get off of them. So I'm kind
- 34:02Speaker 4: of hoping that the field sticks on them, because I
- 34:04Speaker 4: don't really It's obviously a great matchup, but I don't
- 34:07Speaker 4: really know if I want to play these guys at
- 34:09Speaker 4: massive Chocolate they're looking at right now, But yeah, I would.
- 34:12Speaker 4: I would probably expect the ownership comes down a good bit,
- 34:17Speaker 4: although the value you'd be looking to, like on the
- 34:21Speaker 4: Nemhard and the Garland stuff would be at point guard,
- 34:24Speaker 4: So I feel like.
- 34:24Speaker 3: The point guard Brandon Williams for sure would go down,
- 34:27Speaker 3: but I'm not really sure about I still think maybe,
- 34:30Speaker 3: like I think Flag and Ad remain really popular regardless,
- 34:33Speaker 3: but maybe Christy Clay a little bit. Just the value
- 34:37Speaker 3: we have a lot more value, so it gets spread
- 34:39Speaker 3: out a little more, is kind of what my thought was.
- 34:42Speaker 3: Brandon Williams I think would take the biggest hit. But
- 34:44Speaker 3: these guys are all still going to be on. There's
- 34:46Speaker 3: still i mean, just sort by point per dollar projection
- 34:49Speaker 3: right now, regardless of what happens early, it doesn't change
- 34:52Speaker 3: for these guys.
- 34:53Speaker 5: I mean, looking at smash smash plays.
- 34:55Speaker 3: But TJ would become more popular, so it would have
- 34:58Speaker 3: to at least the Williams stuff.
- 35:00Speaker 5: But yeah, go ahead.
- 35:01Speaker 3: I mean ad just looking at FanDuel DraftKings, eighty's ten
- 35:04Speaker 3: to nine on Fan Duel and will still be mega
- 35:06Speaker 3: chalk over there at Power Forward just shows how miss
- 35:09Speaker 3: price he is on DK.
- 35:11Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I was looking at it too.
- 35:13Speaker 4: He's a really really strong play on DraftKings, like easily
- 35:16Speaker 4: the top spin on the slate. I don't really have
- 35:18Speaker 4: any hole sup poking him like they have nobody that
- 35:21Speaker 4: could really defend him. I mean, the Duds don't play
- 35:23Speaker 4: defense in general. I think that there's gonna be a
- 35:25Speaker 4: lot of opportunities for shop block attemps for steels, so
- 35:28Speaker 4: he could have a really really massive stat line in
- 35:31Speaker 4: limited playing time even but if the game does stay
- 35:34Speaker 4: close like doubt or like Vegas is projecting it too,
- 35:36Speaker 4: then yeah, just I feel like there's a very very
- 35:39Speaker 4: slim chance outside of injury for Anthony Davis where he
- 35:43Speaker 4: doesn't pay off his price tag some like you got
- 35:46Speaker 4: to click him in single insure. I feel like, just
- 35:49Speaker 4: given the massive projection at his cheap price tag, really
- 35:52Speaker 4: like eighty tonight, I feel like Cooper Flag at whatever
- 35:57Speaker 4: ownership he's at, if it is like as it for
- 36:00Speaker 4: twenty seven percent, I've seen some other places at like
- 36:03Speaker 4: the like thirty percent, Like that.
- 36:05Speaker 1: Feels really really good.
- 36:06Speaker 4: I feel like Flag is an exceptional play tonight. He
- 36:09Speaker 4: is running the first unit point guard right now because
- 36:13Speaker 4: they're trying to get some more minutes for Daniel Gaffort,
- 36:15Speaker 4: so slides Ad down, slides Cooper Flag back to the one.
- 36:18Speaker 4: I feel like there's just a ton of ways that
- 36:21Speaker 4: Flag could really hit in a big way tonight. So
- 36:23Speaker 4: he's kind of my favorite play on the entire slate.
- 36:26Speaker 4: DraftKings has him as a small forward, but I would
- 36:28Speaker 4: say he's more like point guard point forward type play.
- 36:31Speaker 4: And the Jazz have just been terrible against point guards
- 36:33Speaker 4: all year long, dead last over the course of the season,
- 36:36Speaker 4: dead last over the last seven games, over the last
- 36:38Speaker 4: fifteen games, like they're just giving it up to point guard.
- 36:41Speaker 4: So I'm really really excited about Flag tonight at this
- 36:44Speaker 4: price tag, I feel like this is going to be
- 36:45Speaker 4: a huge game for him. The I already alluded to it,
- 36:49Speaker 4: like the Nasee Christie and Klay Thompson grouping. I don't
- 36:54Speaker 4: know if I expect like all three of them, I
- 36:56Speaker 4: doubt are going to get there. I do think that
- 36:59Speaker 4: one of them has a good game, probably one has
- 37:02Speaker 4: a really really good game. Maybe two have really solid games.
- 37:05Speaker 4: But I don't think I want I definitely don't want
- 37:07Speaker 4: all three of those guys in my line up. I
- 37:08Speaker 4: feel like they are all kind of eating into each other.
- 37:11Speaker 3: A good bit you said that was Christy Clay Nasey, Yeah, okay.
- 37:17Speaker 4: But I would also kind of consider Daniel Gafford to
- 37:20Speaker 4: be in that same grouping because they're not really running
- 37:23Speaker 4: a backup center right now. It's kind of they'll just
- 37:27Speaker 4: stagger Ad and Gafford away from each other and slide
- 37:31Speaker 4: Ad up to the five. But I think the minute
- 37:33Speaker 4: ceiling for Gafford would come at the expense of one
- 37:36Speaker 4: of those guys. I feel like it's probably Clay the most,
- 37:39Speaker 4: just because Clay comes off the bench, So I would
- 37:43Speaker 4: I definitely think I would be max two of like
- 37:45Speaker 4: the nause Christie, Clay and Gafford grouping if you wanted
- 37:48Speaker 4: to give any thoughts there, and I'll kind of talk
- 37:51Speaker 4: through who I think is the best of those three
- 37:54Speaker 4: of the four.
- 37:54Speaker 3: I guess sorry I was looking at uh he so
- 37:58Speaker 3: he went. He he went from doubtful to questionable an
- 38:01Speaker 3: hour ago. Not from questionable the doubtful. I'm still seeing questionable.
- 38:05Speaker 3: So was he doubtful earlier in the day and it
- 38:08Speaker 3: was upgrade?
- 38:08Speaker 1: No, he was just always questionable.
- 38:11Speaker 3: All right, you can ask the question again. Sorry, I
- 38:14Speaker 3: was too busy trying to dig into that.
- 38:16Speaker 4: I was just gonna say, what do you think about
- 38:18Speaker 4: like the max two of nause Christy Gafford and Clay.
- 38:22Speaker 3: Yeah, I think if I mean, if if there's other
- 38:26Speaker 3: injuries like the McConnell's, like stuff opens, it's even easier
- 38:30Speaker 3: to do so if everyone remains in I still don't
- 38:33Speaker 3: hate the rule if you feel pretty good about it,
- 38:35Speaker 3: because a lot of people will naturally just group those
- 38:39Speaker 3: together like to get value. It makes a lot of
- 38:41Speaker 3: stuff work on your team, regardless of what you're doing,
- 38:44Speaker 3: Like you need spend ups if you're spending up for
- 38:46Speaker 3: dmich bam all of that. These guys are super super cheap.
- 38:50Speaker 3: I don't I don't hate doing that. I think that's
- 38:52Speaker 3: a way you can get different. I don't know the
- 38:54Speaker 3: ball stuff and all that nearly as much as you do,
- 38:57Speaker 3: but you feel pretty confident that Yeah, maybe two of
- 39:00Speaker 3: them can still have really solid games. But if you
- 39:02Speaker 3: think so, you don't think the other guys really getting there.
- 39:05Speaker 3: So I think that's a solid rule. I never make
- 39:07Speaker 3: the stuff pre plot. I always kind of trust sabersin
- 39:10Speaker 3: to do its thing. But you can add so much value,
- 39:12Speaker 3: like you've talked about throughout, and there's teams I look
- 39:14Speaker 3: at sometimes I go back and look and I remember
- 39:17Speaker 3: you saying max one or max two of that, and
- 39:19Speaker 3: I have my same team and one of them does
- 39:21Speaker 3: good and one dozen. So yeah, if you have a
- 39:23Speaker 3: lean on that at ownership, I don't think you could
- 39:26Speaker 3: go wrong on the slate.
- 39:27Speaker 1: Yeah, that's kind of hu.
- 39:28Speaker 4: I'm thinking through too, because you're also going to be
- 39:31Speaker 4: getting a lot of AD and flag too. So now
- 39:33Speaker 4: we're talking about getting a ton four to five Mavericks guys,
- 39:37Speaker 4: and that just doesn't feel good, regardless of how small
- 39:39Speaker 4: the slate is.
- 39:41Speaker 3: For sure, if all injury news remain the same, four
- 39:44Speaker 3: to five mad or MAVs will be very popular on
- 39:48Speaker 3: teams like you'll have all the late swap flexibility, which
- 39:52Speaker 3: again helps for the eight pm Eastern games. But if
- 39:54Speaker 3: Aunt Garland and these guys are in, you'll see a
- 39:56Speaker 3: ton of MAVs everywhere.
- 39:58Speaker 4: Yeap between those four guys were talking about Nausee, Christy, Gafford,
- 40:04Speaker 4: and Clay. For me, I think Max Christie is the
- 40:07Speaker 4: best of the grouping. I talked about it in discord,
- 40:11Speaker 4: I believe last time or two nights ago when we
- 40:13Speaker 4: were doing some showdown stuff with the Mavericks and Kings.
- 40:16Speaker 4: But there's been a lot of positive talk from Jason
- 40:20Speaker 4: Kidd about Max Christie lately, mainly saying that he wants
- 40:23Speaker 4: him to take more threes. And if you know anything
- 40:26Speaker 4: about Utah, they're terrible at defending the three point line,
- 40:28Speaker 4: really bad everywhere, but they're exceptionally bad against three point shooters.
- 40:32Speaker 4: They're gonna leave these guys open a ton, And Jason
- 40:36Speaker 4: Kidd was basically saying he wants him to take ten
- 40:38Speaker 4: plus threes a game that was kind of kind of
- 40:40Speaker 4: came to fruition. Last game he shot nine threes. You
- 40:43Speaker 4: could definitely tell that he was looking for a shot too,
- 40:45Speaker 4: but kind of a little hesitant at times. But he's
- 40:48Speaker 4: a forty career forty five percent or maybe not career,
- 40:50Speaker 4: but this season he's shooting forty five percent from three
- 40:52Speaker 4: point line, So I would say, if he goes back
- 40:55Speaker 4: to like baseline of what his average is. I don't
- 40:58Speaker 4: know if he's going to shoot forty five percent every
- 41:00Speaker 4: single night, but like if he's taken ten threes a game,
- 41:04Speaker 4: there's really a ton of upside for Christie. So I
- 41:07Speaker 4: kind of have a pretty strong preference for Christy over
- 41:09Speaker 4: the Nase, Clay and Gafford grouping.
- 41:12Speaker 1: I will say that I.
- 41:13Speaker 4: Like Gafford a lot too, because he's projecting as the
- 41:16Speaker 4: lowest owned of the main rotation pieces for Dallas tonight
- 41:20Speaker 4: at well. I mean I've seen one place at like
- 41:23Speaker 4: twelve percent. Saber has him at thirty four percent.
- 41:27Speaker 5: I know that's definitely not even close to Yeah.
- 41:30Speaker 3: He's only center eligible, and again people are gonna go
- 41:33Speaker 3: a d sometimes you can play him in power forward,
- 41:35Speaker 3: but you have Jayhoff Diabat for cheap, and you have
- 41:37Speaker 3: Bam Vooch kind of in mid tier ish. All of
- 41:40Speaker 3: them are just center eligible. Like, that number is completely wrong,
- 41:43Speaker 3: so I just put fifteen.
- 41:45Speaker 4: Yeah, it's it's gonna come down for sure. There's been
- 41:47Speaker 4: some pretty crazy, big discrepancies between the ownership lately. I
- 41:52Speaker 4: think last night Derek Queen was at like one percent
- 41:55Speaker 4: ended up being thirty percent in eight eighty eight.
- 41:58Speaker 1: In the sudden it's been changed.
- 42:01Speaker 5: What was it?
- 42:02Speaker 3: Because I played yesterday too, and I know Queens started
- 42:04Speaker 3: popping more for me. It might not been like directly
- 42:06Speaker 3: that game, but something happened that made the someone didn't
- 42:11Speaker 3: start maybe or something.
- 42:13Speaker 1: Maybe it was the porzingis stuff I don't know.
- 42:15Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, sim Porzingi's going to the bench definitely bump
- 42:19Speaker 3: Queen's ownership and stuff like that because at the same position.
- 42:23Speaker 5: Yeah, that's for sure what it was.
- 42:25Speaker 3: Yeah, but that's a good point. Ownership is your inputs
- 42:28Speaker 3: or your outputs. You can change the ownership. You can
- 42:31Speaker 3: make it better if you do seem fit and this
- 42:33Speaker 3: it is worth mentioning, Like this is updated throughout the
- 42:36Speaker 3: day as well, So Porzing. Whatever we're showing, whatever save
- 42:40Speaker 3: you're showing right now, like that could change throughout the day,
- 42:42Speaker 3: but it's always worth worth noting and looking at.
- 42:45Speaker 4: Yeah, Okay, So last guy I will mention it's Brandon Williams.
- 42:50Speaker 4: I think that he's really really strong tonight. He was
- 42:53Speaker 4: questionable coming into the game or coming into the day,
- 42:56Speaker 4: upgraded throughout the day, made shoot a round. So I
- 42:59Speaker 4: think that he's a really strong option tonight, gonna get
- 43:02Speaker 4: staggered away a little bit from flag to kind of
- 43:04Speaker 4: run that second unit.
- 43:05Speaker 1: I definitely don't want him with them, hark.
- 43:07Speaker 4: I feel like the minutes are very tied closer together.
- 43:11Speaker 4: But I do think that he's in a really good
- 43:12Speaker 4: spot here. The second unit for the Jazz defensively is
- 43:16Speaker 4: non existing, Like they don't have anybody in that second
- 43:18Speaker 4: unit that's playing defense really in either unit, but especially
- 43:22Speaker 4: the second units. I think that Brandon Williams is really
- 43:25Speaker 4: really strong tonight. The Jazz side gonna be tough to
- 43:29Speaker 4: break down. Without knowing the status of Yusef Nurkic and
- 43:33Speaker 4: I guess to a lesser degree, Ace Bailey, because that
- 43:35Speaker 4: is two bodies that are playing minutes would probably lean
- 43:39Speaker 4: Nurkic sitting tonight. Kevin Love is back as well, so
- 43:43Speaker 4: they're probably gonna be starting.
- 43:44Speaker 1: Kevin Love.
- 43:46Speaker 4: Also would not be surprised to see throughout the day
- 43:48Speaker 4: if Lori gets downgraded. Just played a ton of minutes
- 43:51Speaker 4: last night and back to back travel day as well,
- 43:54Speaker 4: so could if at the very least, I don't think
- 43:57Speaker 4: he's playing his normal like thirty six minutes, even in
- 43:59Speaker 4: a close game, probably thirty three thirty four is what I.
- 44:02Speaker 1: Would project him at.
- 44:04Speaker 4: Kyante probably safer than Lorie, just being a younger guy
- 44:09Speaker 4: in the midst of a breakout season, just playing really well.
- 44:11Speaker 4: I would if I knew that Kiante was playing full minutes,
- 44:13Speaker 4: I would really like him a ton because I don't
- 44:15Speaker 4: think that Dallas is very good with any sort of
- 44:18Speaker 4: on ball guard defender, So I feel like Kiante would
- 44:20Speaker 4: be in a pretty good spot here.
- 44:23Speaker 1: As for that, you kind of are asking.
- 44:24Speaker 4: For a lot to get any of these like secondary guys, right,
- 44:28Speaker 4: because the rotation is all over the place. So like
- 44:31Speaker 4: even if you get the minutes for Isaiah Collier and
- 44:33Speaker 4: he does well, he's five point eight k so you
- 44:37Speaker 4: really need like thirty five from him, and there's no
- 44:39Speaker 4: guarantee that he's going to play a lot of mats.
- 44:41Speaker 1: We saw Walter Clayton.
- 44:43Speaker 4: Was the guy that they actually closed with over some
- 44:46Speaker 4: of the starters last night, and he played over Callier,
- 44:49Speaker 4: so that could easily flip back in Caller's direction.
- 44:52Speaker 1: So if you if you're even considering.
- 44:53Speaker 4: Those guys, it's definitely max One, Collier and Clayton. I
- 44:59Speaker 4: don't think that sense of ball is really worthy of
- 45:01Speaker 4: the five point seven k price tag. You're gonna need
- 45:04Speaker 4: multiple guys like nurkic Ace and Laurie to be out
- 45:07Speaker 4: for him to pay off that price tag. I do
- 45:10Speaker 4: think that Love is pretty good though. We like attacking
- 45:13Speaker 4: Daniel Gafford with opposing centers. Assuming that he's starting, he's
- 45:16Speaker 4: probably playing like twenty five minutes. Still a pretty good
- 45:19Speaker 4: permanent producer as well, So I'm think I'm okay with Love,
- 45:21Speaker 4: but I don't know.
- 45:23Speaker 1: It's just kind of tough to talk through. Utah.
- 45:24Speaker 4: If you have any sort of lean on who's going
- 45:27Speaker 4: to be a good play tonight, I would love to
- 45:28Speaker 4: hear it.
- 45:29Speaker 5: You can't play Love if he's off the bench. From
- 45:31Speaker 5: what we've seen earlier in.
- 45:32Speaker 4: The year right now, it's too sketchy, like he might
- 45:36Speaker 4: be a DMP if he's off the bench.
- 45:38Speaker 3: So what do you think Cayante's minutes are in this game?
- 45:41Speaker 3: Savers shown thirty four and a half essentially, and I
- 45:45Speaker 3: mean a pretty strong play at thirty four and a half,
- 45:47Speaker 3: Like he's just been so good this year. I'm not
- 45:49Speaker 3: even sure I believe that twenty three percent ownership. So
- 45:52Speaker 3: I think that's another guy that you could just I mean,
- 45:55Speaker 3: if everyone's playing all these Dallas guys, it feels kind
- 45:57Speaker 3: of weird not to have really any interest in Utah.
- 46:00Speaker 3: Only a four and a half point spread, and I
- 46:01Speaker 3: think I think Utah competes. I mean they think Utah competes.
- 46:05Speaker 3: Kanty has been so good this year, what do you
- 46:08Speaker 3: think those minutes look like? Because you're worried he's not
- 46:11Speaker 3: get the full allotment, you said.
- 46:12Speaker 4: I think Keanto would be closer to full than LORI sorry,
- 46:17Speaker 4: I think Kante he's basically in every game that's closed.
- 46:20Speaker 4: He's playing thirty six to thirty eight. Yeah, So I
- 46:23Speaker 4: mean you do think it's close, you should project him full.
- 46:26Speaker 3: Yeah, And I mean I don't see any reason why
- 46:28Speaker 3: we're looking at four and a half point favorites are
- 46:31Speaker 3: the MAVs, Like I even if it's within nine at
- 46:34Speaker 3: five minutes left, like these guys are going to be
- 46:36Speaker 3: in So I would act like it's going to be
- 46:39Speaker 3: a close game.
- 46:40Speaker 5: And there's really no.
- 46:42Speaker 3: Like Q tags or anything that can change Kiante from
- 46:44Speaker 3: being a good play At eight point four. K just
- 46:46Speaker 3: you just have more flexibility to change things around when
- 46:49Speaker 3: it's all said and done. If you want to do so,
- 46:51Speaker 3: so I think Kiante is a phenomenal play by far
- 46:54Speaker 3: my favorite Utah spot.
- 46:56Speaker 5: The Dallas.
- 46:57Speaker 3: Thing I misspoke earlier was on FanDuel that Cooper Flea
- 47:00Speaker 3: has all the eligibility point guard, shooting guard, and small forward.
- 47:04Speaker 5: You can have three over there, No he had Yeah
- 47:07Speaker 5: he has three.
- 47:08Speaker 1: Yeah, I didn't even know that those possible.
- 47:10Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, he has all three. But I think playing
- 47:12Speaker 3: them at shooting guard is probably my favorite approach because
- 47:17Speaker 3: we're gonna have like Klay Thompson is gonna be one
- 47:20Speaker 3: of the most popular shooting guards. Just the nature of
- 47:22Speaker 3: the slate. We saw that Christie there, Cooper Flagg's there,
- 47:25Speaker 3: But I mean, I think Clay I just.
- 47:28Speaker 5: Think is one of the worst clicks almost every single slate.
- 47:30Speaker 3: He's gonna get ownership hunt DraftKings too, but he has
- 47:33Speaker 3: to be so efficient from deep I'd much rather click
- 47:37Speaker 3: so many other names. So I do think I wanted
- 47:39Speaker 3: to mention someone asks, is a d still strong play
- 47:42Speaker 3: at ten nine over there? He most definitely is. There's
- 47:44Speaker 3: not much value at power forward Siakam him, Julius Randall,
- 47:48Speaker 3: like people are going to spend up at the power
- 47:50Speaker 3: forward position, which kind of leaves people playing clay and stuff.
- 47:54Speaker 5: At shooting Guard.
- 47:55Speaker 3: But yeah, I think Ad is an elite play over
- 47:57Speaker 3: on FanDuel as well, fits the scoring better with the stocks.
- 48:01Speaker 3: I'm not worried about this Rio. I assume you're not,
- 48:03Speaker 3: like he's going everything's gonna be normal until days before
- 48:07Speaker 3: the deadline if they really think he's getting shopped or something.
- 48:10Speaker 4: Yeah, I feel like there would probably be a tell,
- 48:12Speaker 4: like someone to Corey Kisberg last night where he was
- 48:15Speaker 4: available and then all of a sudden was out.
- 48:17Speaker 3: Yeah, Conte is definitely a stud. Shout out to Rio
- 48:19Speaker 3: way ahead of the curve on his man Keane.
- 48:22Speaker 1: Now that.
- 48:25Speaker 3: Keynote keynotes of who's keynote he's talking about? Yeah, yeah,
- 48:31Speaker 3: I got really nothing else in this, Like, regardless of
- 48:34Speaker 3: the injury news earlier, people are still gonna play like
- 48:37Speaker 3: we talked about. I think it's Brandon Williams for sure
- 48:39Speaker 3: that the ownership goes down the most if Nemhar and
- 48:43Speaker 3: Garland are out, mainly Nemhar just because of the TJ
- 48:45Speaker 3: McConnell's stuff. I still think Craig Porter would be a
- 48:48Speaker 3: great play too, and that would eat into some Brandon
- 48:50Speaker 3: Williams stuff. But yeah, these guys are all gonna be popular.
- 48:54Speaker 3: There's no doubt about that. Any You already talked about
- 48:56Speaker 3: the rules. No, you're not max in one like flay
- 48:59Speaker 3: a d They're two miss priced. On this late I
- 49:02Speaker 3: got really nothing else in that last game.
- 49:04Speaker 4: The uh I was looking at the so Dallas and
- 49:06Speaker 4: Utah did play earlier this year. That game went crazy
- 49:09Speaker 4: one one thirty three Utah one in overtime. Cooper Flag
- 49:14Speaker 4: I think had his best game of the year against
- 49:17Speaker 4: the Jazz forty two points in that one and sixty
- 49:22Speaker 4: sixty four draftings points was the most he scored this year.
- 49:26Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean popcake matchup. No, PJ.
- 49:29Speaker 3: Washington only makes things a little better for them. I
- 49:32Speaker 3: got nothing else on this late though, Anything anything else
- 49:36Speaker 3: for you before we get on out here?
- 49:38Speaker 1: No, yeah, I don't know this. This slate is pretty interesting.
- 49:43Speaker 4: It's a lot of the similar game totals and then
- 49:47Speaker 4: pretty close spreads all around, so you honestly could make
- 49:49Speaker 4: a case for game stacks of any game, which makes
- 49:52Speaker 4: it pretty unique one if you hit right.
- 49:54Speaker 3: Yeah, the first game would just be a little like
- 49:56Speaker 3: the most difficult just because of Aunt Garland Q tags.
- 49:59Speaker 3: I think you I don't want a decent on the
- 50:01Speaker 3: spots for the late stuff, but yeah, if you get it,
- 50:04Speaker 3: even if you're just playing two Dallas one Dallas obviously zero,
- 50:08Speaker 3: that's a way to get different that way. Not sure
- 50:10Speaker 3: it's my favorite way to do that. I think I'd
- 50:12Speaker 3: rather just play Kyante, who I think is relatively low
- 50:15Speaker 3: owned or lower or something if you are playing a
- 50:17Speaker 3: bunch of Mavericks, to hope that it is competitive. But
- 50:20Speaker 3: we already has a slate plane up NBA slate plan
- 50:23Speaker 3: to check that out out check that out always very
- 50:26Speaker 3: in depth him Matt Ham's Core Report, my Cash Report.
- 50:30Speaker 3: The Stone, Big or Little Neck is slate playing Monday
- 50:33Speaker 3: through Friday, talking some showdown stuff, of course, projections and ownership.
- 50:37Speaker 3: We also do have college football. You can check out

- 50:50Speaker 3: There's no better time right now if you go join
- 50:52Speaker 3: the Nation. We do have a daily pass. I don't
- 50:55Speaker 3: think it's the best time to use that because for
- 50:57Speaker 3: only ten days more you get five days. That takes
- 50:59Speaker 3: you all the way throughout the weekend. Huge, huge NFL contest.
- 51:02Speaker 3: Really excited for that in the playoff streets. But you
- 51:05Speaker 3: get college football, you get NFL, you get NBA, you

- 51:22Speaker 3: them out of here.
- 51:24Speaker 4: Uh yeah, I actually do want to give a special
- 51:26Speaker 4: shout out. I'm not sure if Lil Neck is still here,
- 51:28Speaker 4: but I haven't had a lot of chances to play
- 51:31Speaker 4: Showdown this season. Yeah, there's our guy, But I've looked
- 51:36Speaker 4: at a lot of Showdown stuff over the last few
- 51:38Speaker 4: years around the industry. I honestly think that he's got
- 51:40Speaker 4: the best Showdown content possible and it's really helpful for
- 51:45Speaker 4: a lot of people that are not willing or able
- 51:47Speaker 4: to play main slates because they can get pretty crazy.
- 51:50Speaker 4: But he does a really good job. Probaly schools are
- 51:52Speaker 4: usually pretty good. He's always around updating things, So I
- 51:54Speaker 4: just want to give him a shout out because he's
- 51:56Speaker 4: been a really, really good addition this year.
- 51:58Speaker 5: Great shout out.
- 51:59Speaker 3: Yeah, you until he puts in the work and he
- 52:01Speaker 3: does preseason NFL like he's doing other sports on his

- 52:08Speaker 3: he's in here, but awesome stuff, great, great work, always
- 52:11Speaker 3: around in the community, very knowledgeable. So definitely shout out
