NBA DFS Process | DraftKings & FanDuel Picks, Plays & Slate Breakdown | Monday, 01/26/26 · Daily Fantasy Sports by Ship It Nation

• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Fall. System's going clear the left?
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: What's going on? Everybody? Happy Monday. We're here talking some hoops.
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: Five games on slates feels like every time I'm on
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: the show with you, Matt, it's either four or five games,
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: and back in the day, Mondays.
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: Used to be used to be big slates.
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: It is two and a half hour windows spread out
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: from the first game to the last game, which I
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: don't love, but you do get some breaks in between,
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: so you can see one game at seven, three games
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: at eight, and then one game at ninety, so mainly
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: this middle window. With that being said, the last game
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: on an Island Warriors Timberwolves definitely had some injury news
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: with Steph and Raymond. You get when we're talking, we're
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: gonna talk like we will not get that news before
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: any of the games, because yeah, thirty minutes is usually
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: the time. So definitely an interesting slate. Got to be
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: around your computer for some late swap. We got showdown
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: stuff with our man little neck. Yeah, I hope your
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: weekend was good. How was your weekend? We were talking
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: a little pre show if you want to tell the people.
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: Pretty tough last night with the internet again, but yeah,
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: how you doing today?
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: In net.
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm doing pretty well, bro, Nice to be here
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: with you talking swoops. Not as good as you after
• 1:38
  Speaker 4: almost taking down the showed on slate of the early
• 1:41
  Speaker 4: game yesterday.
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: Brutal runout for you.
• 1:43
  Speaker 4: We talked about that a little bit yesterday and today,
• 1:45
  Speaker 4: but not quite as brutal as the runout I had
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: last night where I just couldn't get my lineups uploaded.
• 1:52
  Speaker 4: Probably waited too long, but I was wanting to build
• 1:54
  Speaker 4: right before the game.
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: I was doing stuff before that.
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: Long story short, couldn't get any lineups in. Had to
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: play one lineup for all my lineups last night. It
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: wasn't really a lineup I had spent a lot of
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: time to put together. So needless to say, it did
• 2:07
  Speaker 4: not cash. But we're back at it today. Took down
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: a little bit of a small field loll tournament this morning,
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: so we're feeling good.
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: Nice there you go. Yeah, And unfortunately, Madam, he's being
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: very humble. His one lineup was he maxed the twenty
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: dollars I believe it was twenty yesterday, maybe twenty five
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: one of the two, and then he had teams in
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: three thirty three and stuff. Very high stakes player is
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: mad over there. So having to play one lineup when
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: you have one hundred and fifty in is by no
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: means fun at all. And that was a tough game
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: to do.
• 2:35
  Speaker 4: We made the game like not enjoyable, you know what
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: I mean?
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure, Yeah, I mean you're sweating that one
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: team super super hard.
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: It's enjoyable if you somehow.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: Got that team to the one team so nuts went,
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: that's sure something. But yeah, we got little neck in here,
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: butter Coach, Jane Green, Nate, the Marcus go collect in
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: here again. Appreciate everyone hanging out or did see you
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: were close? Coach Congress to you.
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: You are right.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: I've learned that over the years too. Absolutely nobody does care.
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: All you can do is work harder, try and get better, and.
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: Hey, put the chips.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: Put yourself in a good spot and help the chips
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: fall where you want them when it's all said and done.
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: But that's all we'll be doing today for this NBA slate.
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: We got William in here as well, shoveling two cars
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: out of twenty inches of snow. Absolutely brutal. I'm sitting
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: here in beautiful Arizona. What about you, Matt. I know
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: you're in Ohio, so you definitely have to ask some
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: snow in the grounds.
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: I'm pretty cold weather. Hey, yeah, it's been cold, man.
• 3:33
  Speaker 4: We've been snowed in all weekend.
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: Basically.
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: My daughter's home from school today, snow day, which we
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: had a couple last weekends. Yeah, it's ten degrees feels
• 3:41
  Speaker 4: like negative two here, so it is.
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: It's about as cold as it gets. It usually doesn't
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: get like this bad.
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: I'm hoping it doesn't last that much longer, honestly, because
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: I hate the cold. Definitely. Jelly as hell of you
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: in Arizona. Thought you weren' going to bring it up,
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: but hey, twenty k richer and in Arizona, I do
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: not know how I'm gonna get through.
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: This show is going to bring it up.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: But when William mentioned it, I'm from Wisconsin, like many nos,
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: so I had to deal with all that part of
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: the reason I got out of there. But I will
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: say snow days do not or I miss those a
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: lot when I was in school. So I bet you're
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: daughter is loving that. I don't know about the parents.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: I hear both sides sometimes they like it. Multiple snow
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: days in two weeks, though, you're probably ready for the
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: kids to get back in.
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: The Yeah, I'll say she's three, so like she's home
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: a lot. Anyways, you know it's it's I love it
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: when she's home. So I like her to be in
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: school because it's good for her. But like she's not
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: really in school school yet, so like, yeah, I like
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: it when she's home.
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: I like it. We'll talk some hoops though.
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: Again, hope everybody's having a good day, had a great weekend.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: What are your thoughts on just let broad Slate over
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: you again and the two things, Like I said, Steph
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: and Draymond questionable in that game on an island late,
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: We're probably not going to know the news. I think
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: Draymond's like a solid play, a solid price if you
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: were to play. Can we really plug those guys in?
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: Or you just wanting to play the secondary pieces that
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: look like already solid plays but would become even stronger
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: if they were out. So yeah, what's your thought on
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: the whole slate, the Warrior stuff? Then we'll go game
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: by game.
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: I'm pretty sure last Monday we had not with question marks,
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: but we had another really popular warrior slate.
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: A small four gamer.
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: As you talked about, we're mondays, I think about MBA
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: is having big Monday, Wednesday, Friday slates, Tuesday Thursdays smaller.
• 5:19
  Speaker 4: That's not really the case, or it hasn't been the
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: case this year, and it is a little bit weird
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: for me, but that's just how it is. Last week,
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: I want to say it was heat at Warriors, where
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: we just saw crazy amounts of chalk on both sides
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: of that game. I think we'll probably see a similar
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: story here. The Minnesota's got spend up options and a
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: couple guys in the mid tier that look really good,
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: and then it's almost impossible to get away from Golden
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: State even if both Curry and Raymond are in. You
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: take those guys out and it starts to make the
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: game look wonky because Minnesota should roll, but the Golden
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: State price tags are just too cheap for that scenario.
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: So ultimately, I think that is the broad view of
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: the slate. Last game, certainly the middle there's an early
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: game that middle three that start at eight, so a
• 6:06
  Speaker 4: lot of the good players are going to be at eight.
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: But I think it's going to be pretty hard to
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: avoid that last game.
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: One hundred percent.
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, even like again, we're assuming we're not gonna have
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: the news before the first four games, but I do
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: think you want roster spots late. Minnesota has a couple
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: of good options, and yeah, the Warriors some solid value
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: mid tier options even if Steph and Raymond do play,
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: and obviously it.
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: Only gets a lot stronger if they are out.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: So we're gonna go game by game like always, the
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: first game of the night on an island, seven PM
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: Easter in the Orlando Magic and the Cleveland Cavaliers five
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: and that point favorite of the Cabs two twenty two
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: and a half total in this one on the Orlando side,
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: no Franz Wagner. On the Cleveland side, no Garland, no
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: Sam Merrill, DeAndre Hunter is questionable. So I'll throw it
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: to you right away in this one. I think it's
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: pretty interesting for the sense of like there's not too
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: much injury news in these middle three games. We're assuming
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: we're not gonna get it late. So I don't like,
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: if you like this game, you can play a couple
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: of pieces. I wouldn't worry about it just being the
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: first game on an island, and like, you think you're
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: gonna get more injury news after, So yeah, I think
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: without Franz without Garland Meyril Hunter questionable. I don't hate
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: getting to this game on both sides. What are your
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: thoughts though, And I will say FanDuel will be even
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: more popular like Tom Win shooting or small four power
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: forward offers a lot of value. Mobile will be a
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: popular spend over there. Luca is a big talking point
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: on the slate, so trying to find value to get.
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: Lucas what people will be doing take it away.
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so I totally agree with you that, especially with
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: only five games, you certainly can play this game. There's
• 7:39
  Speaker 4: angles where this game is the best game of the night,
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: no doubt. I just personally don't love this game like
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: I wish I did, because I think you're gonna get
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: an ownership discount on a lot of plays from this game.
• 7:48
  Speaker 4: But I'm kind of with the field here. I don't
• 7:50
  Speaker 4: really see it from the Cleveland side. Darlin's been out
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: a few games, Maryl's been out a few games. Hunter
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: was out last game. So even like the fringy guy
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: like Dean Wade, who was really popular last slate at
• 8:02
  Speaker 4: thirty five hundred, he's now four K, So like you
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: would look okay if Hunter's out, But I'm not rushing
• 8:09
  Speaker 4: and running to play Dean Wade at any price, certainly
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: not at a four k price tag. I think he's fine.
• 8:15
  Speaker 4: I think Donovan Mitchell. I'm never gonna tell someone not
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: to play Donovan Mitchell. But at ninety nine hundred, I
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: think there are guys that just project better from a
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: points per dollar standpoint. Now, whenever you're talking about like
• 8:26
  Speaker 4: the Elite Studs like that they can break any slate
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: they're on. Spider can certainly do that in this spot.
• 8:32
  Speaker 4: But these teams just played. I don't expect like a
• 8:35
  Speaker 4: shootout game here. I'm not going into this slate thinking
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: I need pieces from this game because I expect a
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: really high scoring, really DFS friendly environment here. Not to
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: say it's gonna be a bad environment, it's just not
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: one I'm looking to play. Per se Moldly, his price
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: has come down a tag. He was nine k's now
• 8:56
  Speaker 4: eighty nine hundred. I'm fine with it. Like he's a
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: thousand less than Mitchell, So I view that as similar plays.
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: Cleveland has played better as of late. I think they're
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: ten and four in their last fourteen. They're beating the
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: teams they should beat. Orlando Losers of three straight. I
• 9:11
  Speaker 4: expect to see Orlando's best effort here, but similar with Cleveland,
• 9:15
  Speaker 4: like the Orlando guys, price tags I think are just
• 9:18
  Speaker 4: where they should be. Franz has been out a couple games.
• 9:20
  Speaker 4: Obviously he was out for a while before that. I
• 9:23
  Speaker 4: don't think price tags that were state have had stabilized
• 9:26
  Speaker 4: for him being back, so they're still kind of where
• 9:29
  Speaker 4: they should be. Polo is three ninety one hundred. I
• 9:33
  Speaker 4: think he's okay, but he projects for you know, depending
• 9:36
  Speaker 4: on where you look, anywhere from like forty one to
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: forty four Fantasy points. I'm good on that at ninety
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: one hundred. Like, I'll let the field take that if
• 9:44
  Speaker 4: they want him. Other guys from Orlando, there's just no
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: one here that I think if I were playing one
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: lineup tonight, I would roster. Honestly, I don't even think
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: it's close. Desmond Bay looks okay. There's just really good
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: plays on the other games on this slate, So I'm
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: certainly not going into it thinking I have to fade
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: it because it's the first game. I just think it
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: might be the worst game on the slate from a
• 10:06
  Speaker 4: DFS perspective.
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: I like, I agree with you.
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: I mean you can see by the ownership it's the
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: highest guy. We have two guys getting above ten percent
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: ownership and everyone else below that. So like the appealing,
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: there's not really value in this game outside of Dean
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: Wade if you want to click that at four K.
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: So most years would be mid tier spends. I like
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: Donovan Mitchell. He's the one, like you mentioned, they did
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: just play each other. He had forty minutes of that
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: one shot the ball thirty times. Let me get exactly.
• 10:36
  Speaker 4: I always like him when he's starting at point guard.
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: Two. Yeah, without Carloss was like two days ago.
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: I mean the last two games forty percent usage, thirty
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: seven percent usage, thirty field goal attempts, twenty five field
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: goal attempts. And I wanted to shout out again our team.
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: So last week, many of you probably.
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: Know NBA DVP.
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: This is a new tool that we put up, and
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: we got some feedback. People wanted to also know. The
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: last two weeks, it was a whole season, long day.
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: It's all numbers based, it's all automated, no opinions in it.
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: But now we have a full season and we have
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: two weeks and I'm looking at right now the last
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: two weeks, Donovan Mitchell number one for point guard. The
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: Magic have given up the most and on the season
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: it's number two, So a really good spot for Donald Mitchell.
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: Just did it against these guys two games ago and
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: we're showing eight percent. A lot of that reason is
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: is when people spend up like Luca is going to
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: be a priority for many on this slate. I think
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: people want to go and ahead of them, so guard's
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: pretty strong. Then you can get to the pods and
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: other value. I do believe this ownership. And if that's
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: the case, you can get a lot chalg like play
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: a bunch of the Warriors stuff place in Minnesota. You
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: can play D Mitch and Luca if you really want.
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: It does get a little more difficult. I don't think
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: it's the most optimal approach to go today, but it
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: is possible. I just think D Mitch is a very
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: good pivot off and a spend that's not getting much ownership.
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: And yeah, if you're shooting.
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: The ball thirty times to put up a forty percent
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: usage with very good DVP rankings, the one I definitely
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: like the most. But after that, I agree, I'm kind
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: of struggling to get to definitely any magic Dean Wade
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: maybe if I need value, but I never love clicking
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: the name Dean Wade, so pretty much, d Mitch your
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: boss for me?
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: Any final thoughts for you in this one? Nah?
• 12:15
  Speaker 4: I like the Spider call for sure, Like he definitely
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: seems to have put a little chip on his shoulder
• 12:19
  Speaker 4: for not being an all star starter, so he's just
• 12:22
  Speaker 4: playing really good ball right now. I think the reason
• 12:25
  Speaker 4: ownership is low is for everything you mentioned with Luca,
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: but also guard spots are going to be at a
• 12:31
  Speaker 4: premium tonight, especially if we get someone.
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: Like Curry out already got more guards.
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: You want a roster than there are roster spots, so
• 12:39
  Speaker 4: like that could only that could only you know, be worse.
• 12:42
  Speaker 4: So that's the reason the feel isn't getting there at
• 12:45
  Speaker 4: ninety nine hundred. But I'm with you whenever you're talking
• 12:47
  Speaker 4: about a smaller slate, a guy like Mitchell who's seen
• 12:50
  Speaker 4: a usage uptick playing really good ball under ten percent, Yeah,
• 12:54
  Speaker 4: I'm interested.
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And I also think when you do plug Donovan Mitchell,
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: you have that whole hour window. If he has a
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: snowflake right away looks really bad, you can pivot. You
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: can get different options, Like you already are knowing how
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: your guys are doing.
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: You already know where the field's gonna go.
• 13:09
  Speaker 4: It's a good talking point though, because like I totally
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: feel you. But on the other side of it, like
• 13:13
  Speaker 4: a guy like Mitchell, he could easily have a snowflake
• 13:16
  Speaker 4: like eighteen DK points at half and then have forty
• 13:19
  Speaker 4: DK points in the second half, you know what I'm saying,
• 13:21
  Speaker 4: So like it's it's tough for sure.
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: I mean, like he definitely can.
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: But if he has eighteen, like I'm just like, he's
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: not gonna he's not averaging forty in a second, Like
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: your right has a good second, right, you can still
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: get forty nine where it doesn't kill you, But I
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: still want to change a couple Yep, Yeah, I'm with
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: that good call. Whereas if he's got thirty six at half,
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: all right now, I might just eat so much of
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: the chalk because I have a five percent dmage and
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: I know that the field doesn't have it, so then
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: I can keep more chalk that way.
• 13:50
  Speaker 4: And just like the other side, like you're not thinking
• 13:52
  Speaker 4: of the outlier where he only has ten second half
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: TK points, like you're playing it like he normally would play,
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: which I think makes a lot of sense.
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: So yeah, good talking point.
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so it's pretty tough game to get to like
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: too many pieces, but I do like if you like
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: MOBILEI I'm not gonna hate it. You want Paulo, sure Black.
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: I don't love those guys as much. It's mainly d Mitch.
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: But I will say on FanDuel, Tomlin at only thirty
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: nine hundred small forward power forward eligibility where you have
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: to play two small forwards and two power forwards, he's
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: going to get some ownership for value to make this
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: spends work. And then Mobley again where you have to
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: roster two power forwards, will be decently popular. I think
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: Tyson Allen might be a little more owned on FanDuel
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: as well, But yeah, magic are tough to click on
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: both sides.
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: We'll keep it rolling.
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: The next game on the slate, the Portland Trailblazers and
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: the Boston Celtics. Celtics seven and a half point favorites
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: two twenty five and a half total in this one.
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: Injuries on the Boston side. Nemus Cada is questionable, so
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: that's pretty big news. Luca Garza and Josh Minote also questionable,
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: Garza Cada definitely interesting Q tags both are illness, and
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: then we go to the other side for Portland Thanny
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: Abdia questionable, Robert Williams question the Bowl obviously odd a
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: very important news as well. So yeah, well the Warriors
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: have the like the main news. There's definitely important news
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: in this game, which is a reason again not to
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: overload the first game, even though just naturally you won't
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: get too too much of it. But yeah, talk about
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: this one and some important Q tags for the Celtics
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: and for Portland.
• 15:20
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so starting with the Celtics side, and I do
• 15:23
  Speaker 4: like this game from a DFS perspective more than the
• 15:26
  Speaker 4: first game. I think the price tags are just a
• 15:27
  Speaker 4: little more friendly. I think there's more guys to roster here,
• 15:30
  Speaker 4: especially if we get news that kind of plays to
• 15:32
  Speaker 4: our favorite from the Boston side. The Keta Garzan news
• 15:37
  Speaker 4: is big just because like, you know, what do they
• 15:39
  Speaker 4: do if they're both out? They started Amari Williams it
• 15:42
  Speaker 4: was either in.
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: Their way a lot. Yeah, if both of.
• 15:46
  Speaker 4: Them are out, I think he'd be a lot because
• 15:48
  Speaker 4: he's so cheap, But I also don't think he'd play
• 15:50
  Speaker 4: like crazy amount of minutes. I think they do some
• 15:53
  Speaker 4: weird stuff inside.
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: That said, they play a lot of small ball. They'd
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: have to, but.
• 15:58
  Speaker 4: They try to. Yeah, like they try to. It's gonna
• 16:02
  Speaker 4: be tough with someone like clinging in there. But yeah,
• 16:07
  Speaker 4: either way, like if they're both out, Amari Williams is
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: a lock. If one of them is out, namely, like
• 16:13
  Speaker 4: if Cada's out but Guards is in and Garza is starting,
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: he's a lock.
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: Row.
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he's the guy that, like at this type of
• 16:20
  Speaker 4: price point, if you're gonna put him in a starting lineup,
• 16:22
  Speaker 4: I'm just gonna play him. He's always been a really
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: good point points per minute guy. Like he's cheap, I'm
• 16:28
  Speaker 4: gonna play him here. I think Jalen Brown, We've talked
• 16:31
  Speaker 4: about this a bunch on the show, as we've done.
• 16:33
  Speaker 4: He's just a usage king, top three usage in the league,
• 16:36
  Speaker 4: playing really good ball. Just ask him. No one's playing
• 16:38
  Speaker 4: better at basketball in the NBA right now. Ninety seven hundred,
• 16:41
  Speaker 4: so you get a little bit bit of a price decrease.
• 16:43
  Speaker 4: He had been over ten k for a few games
• 16:46
  Speaker 4: now back to ninety seven hundred.
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: I like him.
• 16:48
  Speaker 4: He's not getting a ton of ownership. I kind of
• 16:50
  Speaker 4: put him in the Donovan Mitchell bucket. He's getting a
• 16:53
  Speaker 4: little more ownership, but I think he should because of
• 16:55
  Speaker 4: that small forward eligibility always gonna be a worse position
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: than shooting guard or point guard, certainly than point guard,
• 17:01
  Speaker 4: and he phil is just a weak spot at small forward.
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: So I like Jalen Brown here.
• 17:05
  Speaker 4: Peyton Pritchard's got a pretty nice tag at sixty seven hundred.
• 17:08
  Speaker 4: It's tough to get to him in White though, at
• 17:10
  Speaker 4: the guard spots. If I were I think White would
• 17:12
  Speaker 4: be the guy. He's now under eight k. I like
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: Boston here. I think that the cheaper guys start to
• 17:19
  Speaker 4: look better, you know, depending on the center news. We
• 17:21
  Speaker 4: just don't know. If they're both out. Amari Williams would
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: be a lock presuming he starts. If just Garza is out,
• 17:28
  Speaker 4: I think you get a bump to Cada, but him
• 17:31
  Speaker 4: still a little worried about Cada just being sick. I
• 17:34
  Speaker 4: don't think he's going to play a ton here, so
• 17:35
  Speaker 4: I would like him more, and I think he does
• 17:37
  Speaker 4: have a friendly tag at fifty five hundred. I'm just
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: a little bit hesitant because he's been sick for a
• 17:42
  Speaker 4: while and I think that has eaten into his minutes
• 17:44
  Speaker 4: a little bit. That said, if Garz is out, you
• 17:47
  Speaker 4: take out his media backup, he would certainly be in play.
• 17:49
  Speaker 4: At fifty five hundred, I think Boston is a team
• 17:51
  Speaker 4: we want to get to here. I don't think there's
• 17:53
  Speaker 4: one guy, at least for now that's like you gotta
• 17:55
  Speaker 4: lock him in, but the whole team looks pretty appealing.
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: What are your thoughts like if only one of Garza
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: and Kada miss, I'm not sure how much Howser gets
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: a minutes bump. If they both miss and they're forced
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: to go more small, I think you could add a
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: couple more minutes. Do you have any take on that question?
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: Yeah? No, I think it kind of plays into what
• 18:14
  Speaker 4: I talked about earlier. I think that he is a
• 18:16
  Speaker 4: guy who could see his minutes bump. You know, he's
• 18:19
  Speaker 4: projected to play like depending again on where you look,
• 18:22
  Speaker 4: twenty nine thirty thirty one minutes, so somewhere around the
• 18:24
  Speaker 4: thirty minute mark, and I think at that at that
• 18:27
  Speaker 4: he looks pretty good. At fifty two hundred, he doesn't
• 18:30
  Speaker 4: project great, but if you want to give him a
• 18:33
  Speaker 4: bump if those guys are out, makes sense to me. Again,
• 18:35
  Speaker 4: I don't think he's gonna look like a must play
• 18:38
  Speaker 4: no matter what happens here, but certainly a guy you
• 18:40
  Speaker 4: could look at in tournaments with upside.
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: Well yeah, I mean just you saying that alone. So
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: I'm looking at Sabersim's projection twenty six point eight minutes.
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: If you think it is closer to the thirty mark,
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: you can bump that projection up to maybe like a
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: let's see, he's point seven to seven. You bump at
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: three minutes twenty three point nine or something right there.
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: It looks a little better.
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: And what you know about Sam Houser shout out to
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: Wisconsin absolute sniper when he gets hot, I mean that man,
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: he can fill it up in a hurry and he'll
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: just keep chucking.
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: Then they'll keep getting them the ball.
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: So yeah, I never hate something like that fifty two hundred,
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: though there's a lot more downside I think than upside
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: in the fact if you're gonna snowflake from him at
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: this on this slate and a five gamer at two percent,
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: it's kind of hard to overcome that.
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: But yeah, I don't hate it. I would if both
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: of them were out.
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: I think probably a couple more minutes, but I don't
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: think they the Garza Kida. Even if one of them
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: just miss, I don't think I think it affects him
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: positively in too many ways. Yeah, we didn't mention Anferny
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: Simon's revenge. I guess you can kind of say that
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: the same thing about Hawser, except the minutes are worse,
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: but he's gonna chuck and he can get hot.
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: He's a hooper.
• 19:47
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think Howser's minutes are more guaranteed. I think
• 19:49
  Speaker 4: that Simon's, if he plays more minutes, has higher upside certainly.
• 19:53
  Speaker 4: I mean we've seen it. We saw last game forty
• 19:55
  Speaker 4: DK points something like that. I want to like Simon's
• 19:59
  Speaker 4: here against his old square played there forever, you know,
• 20:02
  Speaker 4: under Dame obviously for years. I do feel like he's
• 20:06
  Speaker 4: got like he'll have a little extra pep in his
• 20:08
  Speaker 4: step tonight. Whether or not you believe in the revenge.
• 20:12
  Speaker 4: I doubt he like wants to get back at Portland.
• 20:14
  Speaker 4: I'm sure he loved his time there, but I also
• 20:16
  Speaker 4: feel like he'll definitely have this game circled. What that means,
• 20:19
  Speaker 4: I don't know. Will I play him because of that?
• 20:21
  Speaker 3: No?
• 20:22
  Speaker 4: Will I'd be salty when he has forty DK plants
• 20:24
  Speaker 4: and he's not on my team.
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, at the end of the day, even if
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: he does, he's gonna be really low owned another guard
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: position in a very good another guard play at a
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: very good guard position. Uh, and with the questionable minutes
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: and he has to make his shot. Stephen b on
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: this slate.
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: It's just tough man.
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: You kind of mentioned all the points why it's really
• 20:42
  Speaker 4: hard to get there, and you're not getting a price
• 20:44
  Speaker 4: discount at all. There like five k is where he
• 20:46
  Speaker 4: should be, maybe even a little bit more expensive. Like
• 20:48
  Speaker 4: give me a guy like Reed Shepherd who's cheaper. You
• 20:51
  Speaker 4: know it's gonna play a lot. So yeah, he just
• 20:53
  Speaker 4: looks like a fringe play on this slate, Portland is
• 20:56
  Speaker 4: really hard to talk about not knowing Denny now with
• 20:59
  Speaker 4: Drew Howaday also revenge spot back in the mix, let's talk.
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: Let's talk if Denny's out, because I think if they're in,
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: and if you have any different take you can say
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: if they're in. I mean, I don't know how you
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: touch any of these Portland guys at their price. Denny himself, Yeah, yeah,
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: you can spend up for Denny. Sure, I'd play him
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: at the forward position. He does that point guard small
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: Ford eligibility, Like I'm still probably I know I am
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: like Team Donovan Mitchell if I had to pick like
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: a low own spend up over him. I mean, you
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: can't go wrong if you want, though, But let's say
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: he's out, what would that.
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: Do for this team?
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: I mean, Shaden Sharp, he's expensive at seventy four hundred,
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: but you just just go to the best player with
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: the most minutes and usage and just trying to attack
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: it that way, or what are you seeing if he
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: is to be out.
• 21:48
  Speaker 4: I don't think there's like an auto lock type play
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: because of Drew Howardy being back and not playing full
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: minutes and kind of eating into everyone else, like he
• 21:57
  Speaker 4: would look intriguing. He's not playing it right now and
• 22:00
  Speaker 4: he's six k so tough there man, And then with
• 22:04
  Speaker 4: him in like I do think Sharp would be the
• 22:07
  Speaker 4: best look. You're not getting a price discount, but he
• 22:09
  Speaker 4: certainly got upside if this game is close. I think
• 22:13
  Speaker 4: that presuming Denny's out, Sharp could be a big reason why.
• 22:16
  Speaker 4: I think he's kind of the prototypical boom boss option
• 22:19
  Speaker 4: at seventy four hundred, Like you're paying for his ceiling here.
• 22:23
  Speaker 3: His floor will hurt you, but.
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: Again it's all a buck into the top of tournament.
• 22:26
  Speaker 4: And then the guy that really interests me kind of
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: either way is Clinging depending on what we get with
• 22:32
  Speaker 4: the center news, because he could really eat in this spot.
• 22:36
  Speaker 4: I don't think anyone's gonna go there. We've seen him
• 22:39
  Speaker 4: also be kind of a boom or bust tournament guy,
• 22:42
  Speaker 4: which is kind of the nature of this Portland team
• 22:44
  Speaker 4: right now, except for Denny, who's kind of been that
• 22:46
  Speaker 4: constant guy all year for them. Again, no price discount
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: on clinging, but no one's gonna play these guys. There's
• 22:54
  Speaker 4: a lot more rebounding equity if Denny's out, Like the
• 22:57
  Speaker 4: idea of running like a cling in sharp Jalen Brown
• 23:02
  Speaker 4: like Luca Garza if he starts is appealing to me.
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, So what are your thoughts on for Cleveland's matchup?
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: If like, what would be the ideal situation with Garza
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: and Cada questionable Cada?
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: I feel like, yeah, Kada out Garza starting.
• 23:17
  Speaker 4: The problem then is like if you play both of them,
• 23:20
  Speaker 4: I do feel like one of them is going to
• 23:22
  Speaker 4: play the other off the floor because I would.
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: Love playing both. I agree taking up both center spots too. Yeah,
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: totally good call there.
• 23:30
  Speaker 4: Like Garza would obviously be the more appealing guy, but
• 23:32
  Speaker 4: I think you could kind of flip it in reverse
• 23:35
  Speaker 4: and maybe play Clinging and fade Garza, like in anticipation
• 23:39
  Speaker 4: or telling yourself the story, I should say that like
• 23:41
  Speaker 4: he just eats Gars alive inside and they have to
• 23:44
  Speaker 4: take dars off the floor and Clingon has like twenty
• 23:46
  Speaker 4: and twenty, which he can do.
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, No, I think that that makes a lot of
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: sense because if that is the case, that Garza somehow
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: was starting like that, ownership would be sixty percent plus.
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: Like there's so many spins on this late appealing ones.
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: It'd be so easy, and.
• 24:01
  Speaker 4: I would play Garza and he would look like the
• 24:02
  Speaker 4: best play on the slate. But like, I don't think
• 24:05
  Speaker 4: it's like the safest play ever. Like I do think
• 24:07
  Speaker 4: that at his price tag, he should get there kind
• 24:09
  Speaker 4: of regardless. But there's a difference between getting there and
• 24:13
  Speaker 4: having twenty Fantasy points and like or have scoring thirty
• 24:17
  Speaker 4: five and being a guy you need, you know what
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: I mean?
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: For sure, what.
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: About kill Love? If there was no Denny price Tag's
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: definitely up there. Fifty six Drew's there, But yeah, I
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: mean a solid point permitted guy. Again, it's a point
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: guard spot though it's a lot of opportunity costs. But
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: I mean the definition of a pivot off of Brandon Potzevski,
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: who's one hundred more. That's gonna be way way Actually no,
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: they're the same price, Yeah, exact same price. That's gonna
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: be way way more popular. But I think rightfully, so
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: we're not talking an NFL showdown or baseball or hockey
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: where you can make a pivot and give up that
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: many projection points.
• 24:53
  Speaker 3: It'd be in a chalk your lineup. I think, yeah, totally.
• 24:56
  Speaker 3: I mean you can, but you're not doing it right.
• 24:58
  Speaker 4: If you are doing that totally to your point, like
• 25:01
  Speaker 4: he would look better, he's out of play right now.
• 25:03
  Speaker 4: If Denny's out, he becomes a guy that, like you said,
• 25:06
  Speaker 4: is a tournament pivot. But it's still gonna be lowned
• 25:09
  Speaker 4: just because he's gonna be coming off the bench. You
• 25:11
  Speaker 4: probably need a wonky game script or something weird to
• 25:14
  Speaker 4: happen with the Portland lineup for him to get there.
• 25:16
  Speaker 4: He's a chucker. Anyone who watches college ball knows that.
• 25:19
  Speaker 4: But like he's.
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: Priced like he's too expensive for his projection.
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: So you're spending up to be contrarian where I don't
• 25:28
  Speaker 4: really see it. I mean I just don't really see
• 25:30
  Speaker 4: it on this slate.
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, speaking of college we do we don't charge for
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: college basketball. We don't have content. We do have a
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: discord in it though that our man Smarty and other
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: people help out with great college game. To my only reason,
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: I mentioned that Caleblove transfer from UNC to Arizona number one,
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: Arizona taken on BYU at BYU.
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: So that'sh not be a f electric tonight. Oh yeah,
• 25:51
  Speaker 3: I'm a fan of all sports.
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: I mean, you give me elites, you give me elite athlete,
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: I mean tennis. I think tennis is phenomenal, wrestling, I
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: love watching greatness. That's gonna be one hell of a
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: college basketball game tonight. So if you're bored and you
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: got nothing to do, maybe throw on that game. I'm
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: ready for some March madness coming up before we know
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: it's Yeah, the b white you kid is Now, there's
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: there's a lot of hoopers in college with that ni
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: L and stuff.
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: These Europeans, they got some Europeans that can hoop.
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: That Arizona team is good, man, that team is polished,
• 26:20
  Speaker 4: So that should be a good game tonight because obviously
• 26:22
  Speaker 4: you've got the best player in college hoops probably in
• 26:24
  Speaker 4: the bandst you know, one of the top three freshmen.
• 26:27
  Speaker 4: But then this Arizona team is no joke. I tried
• 26:31
  Speaker 4: picking against them, betting the other side earlier in the year,
• 26:33
  Speaker 4: and it did not work out in my favor.
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's tough. I have seen some shirt money on
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: the BYU. Yeah, moved one.
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: And a half.
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: Yep, yes it has so Yeah, excited for that. We'll
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: keep a rolling though. I do think for Boston, Jalen
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: Brown Derek White two solid plays, I probably would not
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: play them together on this late any last thoughts on that.
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: That's a lot of salary with some good spends.
• 26:55
  Speaker 4: Would you do that it was Jayalen Burn and Derek White?
• 26:58
  Speaker 3: You said correct?
• 27:00
  Speaker 4: You know, if I were playing one fifty, I wouldn't
• 27:02
  Speaker 4: make a rule not to play them together just because
• 27:04
  Speaker 4: small or slate. Maybe you get the outlier Boston game
• 27:07
  Speaker 4: or like they've score one forty, But if our handbuilding,
• 27:09
  Speaker 4: I see very very few scenarios where I play them
• 27:12
  Speaker 4: both together.
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: Yep, I agree there next game on the slate Memphis
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: Grizzlies and the Houston Rockets. Let me refresh DK real
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: quick seven and a half point, ten and a half
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: point favorites. Excuse me? Are the Rockets two? Twenty four
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: and a half total in this one? No injury news,
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: No new injury news to note on the Houston side
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: as far as Memphis, no Jack Landale, no Jahn Morant,
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: and then we got Santi al Damas questionable. So yeah,
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: the more I'm talking about, the more there is actually
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: some important injury news in this eight pm Eastern window.
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: But again, like you're just not There's no way you're
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: playing three people or more in.
• 27:49
  Speaker 3: This Cleveland Orlando game.
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: More than likely you're playing one two max, so you
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: will have spots to adjust things when the news does come.
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: But yeah, this game looks pretty solid if it can
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: stay close. So I guess real life, well, do you
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: think Memphis can keep it close without Jock and jaw?
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: And then yeah, if they can, what interest do you
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: have in this game?
• 28:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 28:09
  Speaker 4: I think the game's in Memphis, right, it's in Houston, Okay,
• 28:14
  Speaker 4: so that makes me less in kind to think Memphis
• 28:16
  Speaker 4: can keep it close. That said, like this isn't the
• 28:18
  Speaker 4: type of game I'm avoiding because of the blowout. Like,
• 28:21
  Speaker 4: I think you have to know that certainly it could blowout.
• 28:24
  Speaker 4: It's not like a great spot for Memphis anyways against Houston,
• 28:26
  Speaker 4: who's a good defensive team. But yeah, I think that
• 28:30
  Speaker 4: Memphis can be competitive enough where their guys are playing
• 28:33
  Speaker 4: into the fourth quarter.
• 28:33
  Speaker 3: I think it's the best way to answer the question.
• 28:36
  Speaker 3: I like it, So let's talk about it.
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: Houston side, there's no injuries to notes, so you can
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: cover that side normal, and then Memphis does santy QTa
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: on top of no jock, no jaw like people already
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: asking about Conchar. I do think Memphis does get a
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: little more interesting if there is no santy. But yeah,
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: you want to start Houston where they're fully healthy, and
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: then we'll go to Memphis after.
• 28:58
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so Houston is healthy, but the price tags are
• 29:01
  Speaker 4: friendly here, so I think they look pretty good here.
• 29:04
  Speaker 4: They might look like the best thing we've talked about
• 29:05
  Speaker 4: so far. Not the best team on the slate, but
• 29:08
  Speaker 4: the best team we've talked about so far.
• 29:09
  Speaker 3: Reed.
• 29:10
  Speaker 4: Shephard forty five hundred I messaged I mentioned him in
• 29:12
  Speaker 4: passing a couple of minutes ago. He looks really good here,
• 29:15
  Speaker 4: getting decent run right now. He's a chucker. We know
• 29:18
  Speaker 4: that anytime he's gonna be on the court for twenty
• 29:21
  Speaker 4: plus minutes, he's gonna probably he's gonna have a good
• 29:24
  Speaker 4: chance of getting there at this price tag in a
• 29:26
  Speaker 4: spot like this, I think he's pretty gamescript proof, So he's,
• 29:30
  Speaker 4: you know, as of right now, one of my favorite
• 29:32
  Speaker 4: plays on the slate point guard shooting are eligible. A
• 29:34
  Speaker 4: lot of opportunity costs, sure, but he's one of the
• 29:37
  Speaker 4: guys that you know gives you opportunity costs when you
• 29:40
  Speaker 4: play someone else, So he looks really good to me.
• 29:43
  Speaker 4: I think Jabari Smith doesn't feel good, never like playing him,
• 29:46
  Speaker 4: especially when they're healthy. Looks also pretty good here, playing
• 29:50
  Speaker 4: good ball right now, projects decent to well at sixty
• 29:53
  Speaker 4: one hundred, you know, power forward eligible.
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: I like him.
• 29:57
  Speaker 4: Sengoon and KD. I don't think they're out of play.
• 30:01
  Speaker 4: Pretty favorable tag on Singoon.
• 30:03
  Speaker 3: With forward eligibility.
• 30:05
  Speaker 4: KD both guard and Ford eligible, so you can roster
• 30:08
  Speaker 4: him at five different spots. I think both those guys
• 30:11
  Speaker 4: are certainly in play here as kind of yeah, spend
• 30:15
  Speaker 4: up to be contrarian options, you know, coming in it's
• 30:17
  Speaker 4: similar ownership to someone like Jalen Brown. So I like
• 30:20
  Speaker 4: both those guys I mentioned. I like Read Shepherd, I
• 30:23
  Speaker 4: like Jabari Smith. I'm and Thompson probably be the fifth
• 30:28
  Speaker 4: of the crew at eighty two hundred. I don't think
• 30:30
  Speaker 4: he's a bad play. I just like the other guys more.
• 30:33
  Speaker 4: I think in totality, Read Shepherd a priority for me
• 30:37
  Speaker 4: from this game, Jabari Smith a really good play, and
• 30:40
  Speaker 4: then Sangoon, Durant, Tari Easton all guys I can play.
• 30:45
  Speaker 4: I think this game gets really interesting from the Memphis side,
• 30:48
  Speaker 4: especially if we get Santi out. Ownership isn't really there
• 30:52
  Speaker 4: on Memphis, and I get it because there's block concerns.
• 30:55
  Speaker 4: We've got the Golden State news. But I do kind
• 30:58
  Speaker 4: of like these guys like Jaron Jackson.
• 31:01
  Speaker 3: Presuming was their last game. Finally shock, Yeah, he really smashed.
• 31:05
  Speaker 4: I played a little bit of him and he smashed
• 31:07
  Speaker 4: it really high ownership. What else is new in the
• 31:10
  Speaker 4: world of DFS. This is how it goes. Only Center
• 31:13
  Speaker 4: eligible now at seventy six hundred, so that is, you know,
• 31:17
  Speaker 4: pulling down his ownership. But if you get Santi out
• 31:20
  Speaker 4: with Landel out, I think that you know all of
• 31:24
  Speaker 4: a sudden, he starts to look really really good here.
• 31:27
  Speaker 4: Someone like Gig Jackson might be come and play. I'm
• 31:31
  Speaker 4: okay with like the John Contrads of the world. You know,
• 31:33
  Speaker 4: there's probably a play somewhere between twenty and twenty two
• 31:36
  Speaker 4: minutes is not gonna win you a slate, but probably
• 31:40
  Speaker 4: won't kill you and allows you to get up to
• 31:42
  Speaker 4: guys that might win you the slate.
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: So that makes sense to me.
• 31:45
  Speaker 4: Cam Spencer is really intriguing to me. Obviously we have
• 31:48
  Speaker 4: no job. He was really really popular on the last
• 31:51
  Speaker 4: late that we had where with no job. A couple
• 31:54
  Speaker 4: of days ago, I believe he was fifty eight hundred.
• 31:56
  Speaker 4: Now he's up to sixty five hundred and a tougher
• 31:58
  Speaker 4: spot and the has just disappeared. So I like him here.
• 32:03
  Speaker 4: I'm willing to kind of take a stand on him.
• 32:06
  Speaker 4: You don't want to be on an island too much
• 32:08
  Speaker 4: in NBA dfs. But you know, it's not like he's
• 32:10
  Speaker 4: point five percent. He's projected to be, you know, five
• 32:13
  Speaker 4: ten percent owned. I like him here as a spend
• 32:16
  Speaker 4: up or kind of a medium spend up to be
• 32:18
  Speaker 4: contrarion guy just plays really good ball When John is out.
• 32:22
  Speaker 4: I expect nothing different here. I think you have potential
• 32:25
  Speaker 4: if Steph Curry is out to go with the Spencer brothers,
• 32:28
  Speaker 4: Cam Spencer and Pat Spencer. So that's intriguing to me
• 32:32
  Speaker 4: all in all. Like I get why Memphis isn't getting
• 32:34
  Speaker 4: a ton of love. Their price tags are up and
• 32:37
  Speaker 4: you've got a really bad spot against Houston, but I'm
• 32:41
  Speaker 4: not sure tags are up enough, especially if.
• 32:43
  Speaker 3: We've got Sandy out. How do you see it?
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I think Memphis is best suited when
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: I'm playing at Houston piece because you're just hoping the
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: game's closed. Like the biggest concern for me with Kadi,
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: with Thompson, with Singoon and all them is, I mean
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: they're up twenty in the fourth or whatever and they
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: don't get that fine run. And on a slate like
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: today with so many elite spends, you're drawing very thin
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: if that's the case. So when you do play one
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: of them, I think it is pretty sharp to pair
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: it with the Memphis guy. And there's a lot of
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: price points. Like you said, Jared Jackson seventy six hundred,
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: I'm good with it at a center position where center's
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: okay on this late, Like, there's a couple options, like
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: I think go Bear is the strongest one that's just
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: center only, but a lot of the other ones have
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: power forward eligibility, so I wouldn't mind doing that. Cedric Coward,
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: I think if the game does stay close, he's gonna
• 33:30
  Speaker 2: have to be a usage monster and play well. Cam Spencer,
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: you made a case for I don't hate it at all, Like,
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: even if you're one percent or three percent or whatever,
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: just build the rest of your lineup a lot differently
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: than you would if you played someone else Chalckey or
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: if there is no santi conchart GG Jackson. Someone mentioned
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: that they're going to neither size Houston very big and long,
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: Like there's so many different price points with these Memphis guys,
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: where I'm totally fine playing a Singhoo and playing a
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: KD playing at Thompson reach Out, it's like a given
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: everyone's gonna go there. I think Jabari Smith kind of
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: a given too. Playing upper thirties minutes looks really strong
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: on both sides, But if you're playing a spend I
• 34:09
  Speaker 2: liked the idea of getting a Memphis guy, probably mainly Spencer, Jackson, Coward,
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: and then you can add from there, just because if
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: it's close, I think it's probably one of those three,
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: two of those three, Like these guys are having good
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: games to keep them in it, and it's going to
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: be low owned anyway, and you can eat a lot
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: of chalk after that. So yeah, Santi's pretty important news
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: contraur Gigi Jackson, like that would be some really good value.
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: These guys would have to play because they're gonna need size.
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: So yeah, I think Memphis is pretty pretty interesting. And
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: then when I do play, I'm more likely to play Houston.
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: When I'm playing Memphis guys, I can play them without Houston.
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: When I'm playing in Houston spend, I'm more likely to
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: play at least one Memphis cut.
• 34:49
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think the price tags kind of call for that,
• 34:51
  Speaker 4: where Memphis is just cheaper. So that makes a lot
• 34:53
  Speaker 4: of sense. And to your point, man, even if Santi's in,
• 34:57
  Speaker 4: like I could see taking a stand and putting your
• 34:59
  Speaker 4: flag down on Jared Jackson you mentioned it just came
• 35:03
  Speaker 4: off a really good game. Center is not loaded. Honestly,
• 35:05
  Speaker 4: you talked about really the only other guy Center eligible
• 35:08
  Speaker 4: who I think you're You know, there's a lot of
• 35:10
  Speaker 4: opportunity costs at he's going into the slate is Rudy Gobert,
• 35:14
  Speaker 4: and you can certainly play both of them together. Jackson,
• 35:17
  Speaker 4: It really really low ownership, and then kind of the
• 35:21
  Speaker 4: other side of that is just talking this out. I
• 35:23
  Speaker 4: like the Houston biggs you talked about Javari, and then
• 35:25
  Speaker 4: I would say Sengoon is my favorite spend up. Memphis
• 35:28
  Speaker 4: just says no one inside to stop him here, so
• 35:31
  Speaker 4: I don't care if Santi's in. He's not stopping Seguin either,
• 35:34
  Speaker 4: So I do like the idea ninety two hundred forward eligible.
• 35:38
  Speaker 4: I think Shangoon looks pretty good here.
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, sing Gooon would be my favorite spend It'd be
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: Singoon KD. I'm talking on the rockets, sing Gooon KD.
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: And then it would be uh Thompson for me. But again,
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: when I'm playing them, I kind of want another. I
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: kind of want a Memphis guy to hope it stays close.
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: What are your thoughts if you played like Tabargo Smith
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: is gonna get a decent amount ownership. If you're pluging
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: instant Goon, are you like as I'm gonna click on
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: this when you have an answer to see what Saber
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: sim says. But are you fine playing them both together
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: negative point zero four. So not the worst would you
• 36:13
  Speaker 2: be find playing those two together?
• 36:14
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think so, just because I think their price
• 36:17
  Speaker 4: tags are probably cheaper than they should be for this
• 36:21
  Speaker 4: particular slate and in this spot. So would I be
• 36:25
  Speaker 4: going out of my way to play both of them together?
• 36:28
  Speaker 3: No?
• 36:28
  Speaker 4: Would I like one of them a little bit more
• 36:30
  Speaker 4: without the other, Yeah, But I just don't think they
• 36:33
  Speaker 4: have that much correlation. And again, I do think that
• 36:35
  Speaker 4: the positive correlation and NBA kind of goes forgotten about
• 36:40
  Speaker 4: for lack of a better term. And like, there are
• 36:42
  Speaker 4: certainly scenarios here where like this game spikes and you
• 36:46
  Speaker 4: just want kind of as many pieces of this game
• 36:47
  Speaker 4: as you can get, or the Houston side spikes, and
• 36:50
  Speaker 4: even if it's a blowout, like they score, you know,
• 36:53
  Speaker 4: one hundred and ten points and three quarters, and like
• 36:55
  Speaker 4: guys are still playing into the fourth a little bit,
• 36:57
  Speaker 4: so there are scenarios where they both get there. Sure,
• 37:01
  Speaker 4: So it's I guess the round about answer is, I'm
• 37:03
  Speaker 4: not looking to do it, I'm not looking to avoid it.
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: Makes sense. Last one, Tari Easton kind of a pivot
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: off a Jabbari Smith right in the same range when
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: he when he gets the minutes, I mean, the ball
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: will go up a good, very good fantasy point per
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: Minnick guy, maybe if it blows out, is he gonna
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: get maybe a little extra run With your thoughts.
• 37:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think.
• 37:23
  Speaker 4: I think that if we could pinpoint that down for sure,
• 37:25
  Speaker 4: then he would look really good, because I do think
• 37:27
  Speaker 4: it's a good spot for Eastan. You've got an undersized
• 37:29
  Speaker 4: Memphis frontcourt year, You've got a young Memphis team obviously
• 37:32
  Speaker 4: missing their best player at Jah could see turnovers in
• 37:35
  Speaker 4: that spot. Easton is obviously a guy who can turn
• 37:38
  Speaker 4: anyone over. Really good Stocks guy. I like Jabbari more,
• 37:43
  Speaker 4: but so does the field. So I think to your point,
• 37:45
  Speaker 4: he's a really intriguing pivot. Not gonna play as much,
• 37:48
  Speaker 4: but probably he has higher upside than the minutes he
• 37:51
  Speaker 4: does play.
• 37:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree.
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: I mean I think that's the best game we've talked
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: about thus far of the three. That Houston Memphis game
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: is very can only get better with Santi News as well,
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: and Little Necks love and read Shepherd. So our man
• 38:06
  Speaker 2: Little Neck says that there goes Scooter, there goes Ax.
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: People know for sure Little Neck likes himself some Shepherd.
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: For those that don't know, many probably do. But Little
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: Neck does phenomenal work for us over here NBA Showdown
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: Slate plan Monday through Friday. He puts up his towers.
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: He's always in the discord to knowledgeable and many sports.
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: So shout out to our guy, little Neck. Awesome to
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: have you on the team. All right, two games left.
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: We appreciate everyone hanging out. All we ask is like
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: button and subscribe. Button helps us out a ton. Next game,
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: Los Angeles Lakers one half point favorites over the Chicago
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: Bulls two thirty five and a half total in this one.
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: Injuries on the Lakers side, absolutely nothing to talk about
• 38:48
  Speaker 2: on the Chicago side.
• 38:49
  Speaker 3: Trey Jones is out. That's it though.
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: Two healthy teams sorting by value though, and this is
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: so I mentioned twenty five and a half total, two
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: twenty six and a half, two twenty four and a half. Yea,
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: this is the highest on the slate two thirty five
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: and a half. Warriors that will talk about two thirty
• 39:04
  Speaker 2: one and a half. So these two teams are healthy.
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: But it should be an up and paced game and
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: it's pretty much a coin flip on the money line,
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: which you like to see Luca will be the most
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: popular spend more than likely.
• 39:16
  Speaker 3: I'll let you take it from there.
• 39:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so Luca is gonna look really good here because
• 39:20
  Speaker 4: it's Luca in a really good spot against the Bulls
• 39:23
  Speaker 4: team that you know likes to pay play fast. Lucas
• 39:26
  Speaker 4: should have no problems here. He's twelve K, so you're
• 39:28
  Speaker 4: paying for it. I don't think he's like an absolute
• 39:31
  Speaker 4: must play because of that price tag. And I am interested,
• 39:36
  Speaker 4: very interested in Bron as kind of a pivot off
• 39:39
  Speaker 4: of Luca.
• 39:40
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 39:40
  Speaker 4: I do think Bron gets some love too, and I
• 39:42
  Speaker 4: don't think Luca comes in as like overwhelming chalk. But
• 39:44
  Speaker 4: to your point, I think Luca is the highest spend
• 39:47
  Speaker 4: up option. I got nothing bad to say about Luca.
• 39:49
  Speaker 4: He looks really, really good here. Again, I don't think
• 39:52
  Speaker 4: you have to play him in tournaments, but know what
• 39:54
  Speaker 4: you're getting yourself into if you fade him, because certainly
• 39:57
  Speaker 4: has the highest seeling of anyone on the slate.
• 39:59
  Speaker 3: That's always going to be the case except for slates.
• 40:02
  Speaker 4: He's on with Jokic sometimes maybe Yannis, but Bron here obviously,
• 40:06
  Speaker 4: if you play him instead of Luca, you're giving up
• 40:09
  Speaker 4: a lot of projection, but he's three k cheaper and
• 40:12
  Speaker 4: plays a much much less desirable position at power forward,
• 40:16
  Speaker 4: so opens up one of those guard spots. Certainly, there
• 40:19
  Speaker 4: are games where bron is just going to be the guy,
• 40:22
  Speaker 4: and if he scores any more close to what Luca
• 40:24
  Speaker 4: does here, you'd certainly rather be on the bronze side.
• 40:26
  Speaker 3: After that. I feel like if.
• 40:29
  Speaker 4: I were doing a show with the Rio right now,
• 40:31
  Speaker 4: he would definitely have interest in a fifty six hundred
• 40:33
  Speaker 4: dollars DeAndre eight and against the Bulls team that just
• 40:37
  Speaker 4: sucks against big men. So I'm interested in DeAndre eight
• 40:40
  Speaker 4: and at fifty six hundred in this spot. I like
• 40:42
  Speaker 4: the Jared Jackson play more, but Ayton is cheaper and
• 40:47
  Speaker 4: you know, makes sense in a better game environment. So
• 40:50
  Speaker 4: after that, you know, Ruey at forty five hundred, Okay,
• 40:54
  Speaker 4: Marcus Smart, Okay, those guys are just fringe plays. It's
• 40:56
  Speaker 4: really Luca then Bron then DeAndre Ayton. Don't really see
• 41:01
  Speaker 4: much else from the Lakers that I like, but there
• 41:05
  Speaker 4: are some guys from Chicago that are in play here.
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, before you get to Chicago, I have the same
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: thoughts as you. I think it's mainly three guys in play.
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: If you're certain point per dollar, it's a decent falloff,
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: I guess if you want to play Smart. But because
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: he does have small Ford eligibility at five K and
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: there's a lot of Q tags that the slate can
• 41:23
  Speaker 2: only get better, which would make Smart even worse. And
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: I don't even love Smart right now, but hey, you
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: can maybe shoot seven threes and if he's hot, they'll
• 41:31
  Speaker 2: keep giving that to him and he'll be open. So
• 41:34
  Speaker 2: I'm not going to say no to it, but it
• 41:36
  Speaker 2: mainly be these four eight And though yeah, another DVP
• 41:39
  Speaker 2: on the full season, Chicago worse on the slate against
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: centers have been a little better in the past two weeks,
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: but Ayton still did make the cut. And again, Center's
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: not great. The ownership's not really going to Ayton. I
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: totally like it on both sites. And then yeah, Luca
• 41:55
  Speaker 2: for sure. When you're not playing Luca, you can look
• 41:57
  Speaker 2: at Lebron, though, is all right? If Luke only has
• 42:00
  Speaker 2: seven or a little down game, why is that defense?
• 42:03
  Speaker 3: Maybe focus him on a.
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: Little more Lebron took over, can easily tell yourself a
• 42:06
  Speaker 2: story is a little pivot there in the same game.
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: So yeah, we see exactly the same on the Lakers side.
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: What about on the on the bull side, can we
• 42:16
  Speaker 2: get vouch Kevin Herder shout out to Herd or hitting
• 42:19
  Speaker 2: that game winner for the Bulls on d Rose Knight.
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: But yeah, Matis was seeing a dunk on tonight. I
• 42:25
  Speaker 2: think some interesting plays on the Bulls, but nothing's just
• 42:28
  Speaker 2: like screaming I gotta play him.
• 42:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I totally agree with you.
• 42:31
  Speaker 4: The one thing that I think is gonna go a
• 42:33
  Speaker 4: little bit unspoken for him this slate is Trey Jones
• 42:35
  Speaker 4: being out, So that is going to open up the
• 42:38
  Speaker 4: Kevin Herders of the world and make someone like Kobe
• 42:41
  Speaker 4: White even more desirable. Just probably guarantees his minutes a
• 42:44
  Speaker 4: little bit more.
• 42:45
  Speaker 3: So. I think he would be my favorite piece of
• 42:47
  Speaker 3: the Bulls. Now.
• 42:48
  Speaker 4: I don't think he's gonna be on own. He's actually
• 42:49
  Speaker 4: projected for decent ownership, But I like him here sixty
• 42:52
  Speaker 4: seven hundred shooting guard eligible. I think he might see
• 42:54
  Speaker 4: him play a little bit more here. We know he's
• 42:56
  Speaker 4: a guy that can get hot and can be a
• 42:59
  Speaker 4: guy you need at this price point. Certainly can be
• 43:01
  Speaker 4: a guy you regret playing at sixty seven hundred, But
• 43:03
  Speaker 4: in tournaments. We're talking about upside, and he's a guy
• 43:05
  Speaker 4: that has it at that price point. Kevin Herder, you
• 43:08
  Speaker 4: mentioned him forty two hundred, he might be the guy
• 43:11
  Speaker 4: that gets the minut the biggest minutes boost with Jones out,
• 43:14
  Speaker 4: another guy with shooting guard and small forward eligibility. You
• 43:18
  Speaker 4: can play him at five different spots on DK, so
• 43:20
  Speaker 4: that helps. Yeah, just a really cheap price point for
• 43:23
  Speaker 4: a guy that again can get hot from three. Vous
• 43:26
  Speaker 4: would be the other guy. I like eight and more
• 43:29
  Speaker 4: at a much cheaper price point. But I do think
• 43:32
  Speaker 4: Voch is in play here, not a bad spot. I
• 43:34
  Speaker 4: never mind going against eighton he's now low seven k's
• 43:38
  Speaker 4: playing pretty good ball for the most part. So yeah,
• 43:40
  Speaker 4: I like the Vus call here. I'm more totally with
• 43:43
  Speaker 4: you than against you. That no one here is someone
• 43:46
  Speaker 4: I have to play. But I do think that in
• 43:48
  Speaker 4: a positive game environment that a bunch of these guys
• 43:51
  Speaker 4: are in play after that, like Boozalis and Jalen Smith,
• 43:56
  Speaker 4: I'm cool with them. I think they'll be pretty low owned,
• 43:59
  Speaker 4: but for a good reason, in just because I think
• 44:00
  Speaker 4: their price tags are where they should be.
• 44:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I don't have any numbers or something
• 44:06
  Speaker 2: to back it up, but I think the pick and
• 44:07
  Speaker 2: pop top of the key for Vouch should be opened
• 44:11
  Speaker 2: most of the night eight and not great at closing.
• 44:13
  Speaker 3: There. We know Luca Lebron, these guys can be a
• 44:15
  Speaker 3: little bit lazy. So yeah, I don't hate.
• 44:17
  Speaker 2: I mean, if if Ouch is shooting six threes or
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: something it you could definitely see that less couple of
• 44:23
  Speaker 2: games haven't shot as many. Then you see a seven,
• 44:25
  Speaker 2: a six, six, five in there. I don't hate Vouch.
• 44:29
  Speaker 2: I do think though, I prefer the Whites, the Herders,
• 44:32
  Speaker 2: the Bazulas if choosing, and I think they're interesting, Like
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: playing a bull on a decent amount of teams is
• 44:39
  Speaker 2: pretty appealing to me because I think I want a
• 44:41
  Speaker 2: good amount of the Lakers stuff and it's gonna be
• 44:43
  Speaker 2: up tempo game. The Lakers can be lazy and give up,
• 44:46
  Speaker 2: give up open looks, and you mentioned the trade Jones stuff.
• 44:49
  Speaker 2: So yeah, I don't have a by no means a
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: strong take on which one it'll be. But I do
• 44:54
  Speaker 2: think one of these bulls, maybe two of them, do
• 44:57
  Speaker 2: have a flame next to them put up a good
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: score if I I'm fading like a Luca and Lebron, though,
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: then I'm probably more likely not to play any.
• 45:04
  Speaker 3: Bulls and hope it's a slower paced game.
• 45:05
  Speaker 2: But you like this game if you had to pick,
• 45:08
  Speaker 2: like you have four players on your team, is it
• 45:10
  Speaker 2: coming from this game or the Houston game.
• 45:14
  Speaker 4: I think this game is going to project better and
• 45:16
  Speaker 4: I think ownership is going to be there. And I'll
• 45:19
  Speaker 4: say this game because of those reasons, because I think
• 45:22
  Speaker 4: it projects better.
• 45:23
  Speaker 3: But I do think that there are certainly worlds where.
• 45:28
  Speaker 4: The Houston Memphis game is the game you need pieces
• 45:30
  Speaker 4: from and this one Dud's out. We see it all
• 45:33
  Speaker 4: the time in NBA and especially Monday nights. Things tend
• 45:36
  Speaker 4: to get a little bit weird. Wouldn't shock me at all,
• 45:40
  Speaker 4: but I still would have to say this game looks
• 45:41
  Speaker 4: more appealing.
• 45:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's close for me. I'm if i'd have four pieces.
• 45:45
  Speaker 2: Maybe I'm saying Houston Memphis because of the pricing, Like
• 45:48
  Speaker 2: I'm almost happy.
• 45:49
  Speaker 4: That's the only thing because if you're playing for, like
• 45:52
  Speaker 4: unless you're playing Bron and Luca together, like you're talking
• 45:55
  Speaker 4: about eight and from the Lakers, and he's I like
• 45:58
  Speaker 4: him here, but I wouldn't.
• 46:00
  Speaker 3: He's a guy that, like I have to play.
• 46:02
  Speaker 2: For sure, Yeah, he's more of a low owned kind
• 46:04
  Speaker 2: of pivot option. You're gonna get a little bit ten
• 46:06
  Speaker 2: eleven percent we have it, but eleven percent NBA DFS
• 46:09
  Speaker 2: is definitely considered low owned in my opinion, especially on
• 46:12
  Speaker 2: a five game slave All right, I got nothing more
• 46:16
  Speaker 2: there again, appreciate all two seventy five watch and we're
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: heading to the last game, which is an hour and
• 46:20
  Speaker 2: a half later than the rest nine thirty Easter and
• 46:22
  Speaker 2: this will be the Showdown game as well, NBA Showdown
• 46:25
  Speaker 2: slate plan and can get our man little next thoughts
• 46:28
  Speaker 2: there projections ownership of course, Core reports Rio Matt Ham
• 46:32
  Speaker 2: Cash report me Rio on the slave plan, so.
• 46:35
  Speaker 3: If you remember, you can check that out.
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: Nobody better in the business than our man Rio, and
• 46:39
  Speaker 2: we have very excited for our new DVP rankings. Also
• 46:42
  Speaker 2: add it again fully automated, no opinion based, just all numbers.
• 46:45
  Speaker 2: You can see the last season and the last two
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: weeks when you click that. We'd love to have you
• 46:50
  Speaker 2: at the Nation, multiple different options. If you click ship
• 46:53
  Speaker 2: a Nation dot Com, it'll say join the Nation right

• 47:01
  Speaker 2: you get five four more days, five days for nineteen dollars.
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: Savor sim and the discord and all the content up
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: here that'll take you through golf Thursday morning, early lock time.
• 47:11

• 47:15
  Speaker 2: going on, NBA going on in UFC three twenty five
• 47:18
  Speaker 2: this week. Shout out to a couple of our members,
• 47:21
  Speaker 2: JS Shocks and I think it was ch someone. They
• 47:24
  Speaker 2: split the twelve eight hundred or whatever it was in
• 47:27
  Speaker 2: the flag ship this past week, and so shout out
• 47:30
  Speaker 2: to them. Very happy MMA is back. We'd love to
• 47:33
  Speaker 2: have you with the nation. As low as nine dollars,
• 47:35
  Speaker 2: you can get in for the day or five days,
• 47:37
  Speaker 2: four nineteen dollars. Last game of the night definitely an
• 47:41
  Speaker 2: important one. You will probably have some roster spots open,
• 47:44
  Speaker 2: or at least you should. Minnesota Timberwolves and the Golden
• 47:46
  Speaker 2: State Warriors seven to that point. Favorites are the Timberwolves
• 47:49
  Speaker 2: two thirty one and a half total in this one.
• 47:51
  Speaker 2: No injury news on Minnesota, definitely some injury news on
• 47:55
  Speaker 2: Golden State. So obviously we know Jimmy has his torn
• 47:58
  Speaker 2: acl Unfortunately, d Anthony Melton out Jonathan Kaminga out, Al
• 48:04
  Speaker 2: Horford out, and then we have Curry and Draymond both questionable.
• 48:10
  Speaker 2: Like I said, even with Curry and Draymond in, like,
• 48:13
  Speaker 2: these guys are still projecting well as you can see
• 48:15
  Speaker 2: now if you remove them, I mean, these Moodies, the
• 48:19
  Speaker 2: post the trace Jackson David like, I mean, how many
• 48:22
  Speaker 2: Warriors is too many?
• 48:23
  Speaker 3: If they're both ruled out is where you're getting at.
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: And to be honest, I don't think there's an answer
• 48:27
  Speaker 2: for that because some people will have their roster spots
• 48:30
  Speaker 2: blocked where they can't even get as many as they want.
• 48:33
  Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean, if you backload enough and there's
• 48:36
  Speaker 2: no Curry Draymond like, you want all of this game.
• 48:39
  Speaker 2: And the nice thing is, as long as you have
• 48:41
  Speaker 2: roster spots late, you have all the value on the
• 48:44
  Speaker 2: Warriors side.
• 48:45
  Speaker 3: That can even get better.
• 48:46
  Speaker 2: And you have spens, you got ants, you got Randall
• 48:49
  Speaker 2: like two solid spins on this late for your late
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: swap ability. So yeah, you can take it however you want.
• 48:54
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's a game we cannot ignore. Maybe Minnesota
• 48:57
  Speaker 2: side first, since there's no moving pieces, get to the
• 49:00
  Speaker 2: moving piece on the Warriors.
• 49:02
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a good call the one thing I am
• 49:04
  Speaker 4: worried about here. If we get Stephan Draymond out, is
• 49:06
  Speaker 4: just like Golden State not being able to do anything.
• 49:09
  Speaker 4: I think that they have good enough players where that
• 49:11
  Speaker 4: won't happen, But I'm worried about that. You know, when
• 49:14
  Speaker 4: you take out so many guys, especially so many of
• 49:17
  Speaker 4: their good players, that's.
• 49:18
  Speaker 3: A concern that just this team. We've seen it before.
• 49:21
  Speaker 4: I remember distinctly a game last year with Dallas where
• 49:24
  Speaker 4: like all their best players were out and you know,
• 49:27
  Speaker 4: their whole team was chalky, and they scored like seventy
• 49:30
  Speaker 4: points total and no one got there, even at cheap tags,
• 49:32
  Speaker 4: because they just couldn't do anything. Those spots are rare
• 49:36
  Speaker 4: and few and far between, so you never go in
• 49:39
  Speaker 4: thinking that's gonna happen. But it is in the back
• 49:41
  Speaker 4: of my mind. Putting that aside, a little bit of
• 49:43
  Speaker 4: a weird spot. These teams played yesterday in Minnesota. Golden
• 49:47
  Speaker 4: State won by like thirty. Minnesota is struggling right now.
• 49:51
  Speaker 4: I think they've lost three in a row. So again,
• 49:56
  Speaker 4: I think that you're gonna see a good effort from
• 49:58
  Speaker 4: them here. What that means I don't know, but from
• 50:00
  Speaker 4: a DFS perspective. Yeah, Gobert looks really really good at
• 50:04
  Speaker 4: sixty one hundred. I think you're gonna see him really popular,
• 50:07
  Speaker 4: especially because the better the plays look now from the
• 50:10
  Speaker 4: late game, people are gonna want to put those guys
• 50:12
  Speaker 4: in because it just gives you roster spots for later.
• 50:15
  Speaker 3: So he looks like, I.
• 50:17
  Speaker 4: Think, pretty unequivocally the best piece of Minnesota at that
• 50:20
  Speaker 4: price tag Anthony Edwards, you know, presuming we get steph
• 50:24
  Speaker 4: out or even if we don't, there's just so much
• 50:27
  Speaker 4: value on this slate. I think he looks good at
• 50:29
  Speaker 4: ninety three hundred. Julius Randall, I think looks pretty good
• 50:34
  Speaker 4: at eighty five hundred, but then better when you think
• 50:37
  Speaker 4: of him as like an ant pivot. So I like Randal,
• 50:40
  Speaker 4: I like Edwards, I like Gobert a lot. Here, go
• 50:43
  Speaker 4: Bear would be the guy that I think you kind
• 50:45
  Speaker 4: of got to prioritize at that price point. He looks
• 50:47
  Speaker 4: better than the other centers we've talked about. I like
• 50:50
  Speaker 4: those other guys as pivots or as guys to play
• 50:52
  Speaker 4: with Gobert, but he looks like the best.
• 50:54
  Speaker 3: Center on the board here.
• 50:55
  Speaker 4: Dante DiVincenzo good spot, potentially even better spot at sixty
• 51:00
  Speaker 4: three hundred.
• 51:00
  Speaker 3: I think he looks okay here.
• 51:03
  Speaker 4: I think it's those four main guys, your boy Jadas, Yeah,
• 51:07
  Speaker 4: I was gonna say Nas and Jada McDaniels. I think
• 51:10
  Speaker 4: my big issue with Nas is I think the blowout
• 51:14
  Speaker 4: concern because he gets hurt most coming off the bench,
• 51:16
  Speaker 4: Like he's the guy that loses it the most when
• 51:18
  Speaker 4: there is a blowout. That said, really good spot for
• 51:21
  Speaker 4: him coming off the bench. Not gonna be nearly as
• 51:24
  Speaker 4: owned as the other guys. What's he projected for? Actually, yeah,
• 51:26
  Speaker 4: he is projected for decent ownership just because of that
• 51:28
  Speaker 4: price tag.
• 51:29
  Speaker 3: I still think, I.
• 51:30
  Speaker 2: Mean, I got a refresh ownership or this let's see
• 51:33
  Speaker 2: if it like Go Bear twenty nine and NAS twenty one,
• 51:36
  Speaker 2: that's just it's just not gonna be right. I mean
• 51:39
  Speaker 2: NAS maybe like a fourteen, Go Bear like a thirty
• 51:44
  Speaker 2: eight or something like.
• 51:44
  Speaker 3: I think we do see more of a discount.
• 51:47
  Speaker 2: But man like, if there's no Draymond and they got
• 51:49
  Speaker 2: to send like Post or Trace Jackson to the start,
• 51:52
  Speaker 2: like he could feast on this second unit.
• 51:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah he should.
• 51:55
  Speaker 4: He should be money. Yeah, No, it's a good call.
• 51:57
  Speaker 4: All these big men from Minnesota are in a really
• 51:59
  Speaker 4: good spot. It's a really good shout out. And while
• 52:02
  Speaker 4: I'm with you, I am with you that I think
• 52:04
  Speaker 4: NAS's ownership is a little bit lower than we're projecting.
• 52:07
  Speaker 4: I do see some other places have him around that
• 52:09
  Speaker 4: like twenty percent mark, twenty to thirty percent mark, So
• 52:12
  Speaker 4: I think that he's not going to be forgotten about
• 52:15
  Speaker 4: at the same price as Gobert, even with Gobert just
• 52:18
  Speaker 4: being center eligible. I do think that Gobert is significantly
• 52:21
  Speaker 4: higher owned, but I guess we'll just have to wait
• 52:23
  Speaker 4: and see. The Minnesota guys are kind of just how
• 52:27
  Speaker 4: they are every slate like Edward's going to be in play,
• 52:30
  Speaker 4: and the benefit of playing Minnesota guys tonight is that
• 52:33
  Speaker 4: it gives you roster spots for the Golden State guys.
• 52:36
  Speaker 4: I think the big problem is is like the price
• 52:39
  Speaker 4: discrepancy between Minnesota and Golden State is pretty big, so
• 52:43
  Speaker 4: like they're kind of completely different entities, if that makes sense.
• 52:48
  Speaker 2: I do think it allows you on first, I'll just
• 52:51
  Speaker 2: like you can be in good spots. I mean you
• 52:53
  Speaker 2: see it in every sport all the time, good spots
• 52:55
  Speaker 2: and just not get there. I mean, there was a
• 52:56
  Speaker 2: blow yesterday or this year they lost my forty. Yeah,
• 53:00
  Speaker 2: I mean like that happens all the time. It's good,
• 53:02
  Speaker 2: spots doesn't always work. Human beings still got to show
• 53:05
  Speaker 2: up and make shots and do their thing. And I think, no,
• 53:08
  Speaker 2: I don't think this at all the timing of the game.
• 53:11
  Speaker 2: I think because both sides are so strong, and even
• 53:13
  Speaker 2: if Steph and Draymond are in like projected Golden State
• 53:17
  Speaker 2: looks pretty solid, I think people are gonna load up
• 53:20
  Speaker 2: on this game regardless and then just make pivots after that.
• 53:23
  Speaker 2: I do think the Steph Draymond ownership might be a
• 53:26
  Speaker 2: little lower.
• 53:27
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 53:27
  Speaker 2: I wanted to say that about Steph, like I'm fine
• 53:30
  Speaker 2: plugging in Steph. Who's going to be like, I don't
• 53:32
  Speaker 2: believe seventeen percent? Like it's hard to do so, but
• 53:35
  Speaker 2: because ants right there, I would just make sure I
• 53:38
  Speaker 2: have a three hundred for a pivot, like play them
• 53:40
  Speaker 2: at a guard spot, be able to get up to
• 53:42
  Speaker 2: ant set of Steph, or just have likeive spots, or
• 53:45
  Speaker 2: just have five spots available, and you know, you have
• 53:48
  Speaker 2: a little flexibility and then no Draymond means like post
• 53:52
  Speaker 2: or trace Jackson, like a value opens up there then
• 53:55
  Speaker 2: you can spend somewhere else. I just think that this
• 53:57
  Speaker 2: game can go enough ways where you can play Steph.
• 54:00
  Speaker 2: If you want to play Steph, you can play Draymond.
• 54:02
  Speaker 2: If you want to play Draymond, just have probably at
• 54:05
  Speaker 2: least four maybe five spots open and then just late
• 54:08
  Speaker 2: swap from there. But yeah, I don't necessarily believe the
• 54:11
  Speaker 2: Draymond Steph ownership because I do think people are worried
• 54:14
  Speaker 2: about them as Q tags in the last game.
• 54:18
  Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean I can make a case for.
• 54:20
  Speaker 2: Nas Go Bear, Dante Randall, even McDaniels, and then I
• 54:25
  Speaker 2: can make a case for so many of these guys
• 54:27
  Speaker 2: if one of these guys are out, and if they're in,
• 54:30
  Speaker 2: they're fine too.
• 54:30
  Speaker 3: So I don't think ownership will go down.
• 54:33
  Speaker 2: And yeah, I do think you can play Steph, who
• 54:35
  Speaker 2: I do not believe will be seventeen percent. Do you
• 54:37
  Speaker 2: have any lien on this like I'm seeing rest, Do
• 54:39
  Speaker 2: you have any lien on these on these Warriors Q tags?
• 54:42
  Speaker 3: I don't.
• 54:42
  Speaker 4: It seems odd to me that they're questionable because they
• 54:45
  Speaker 4: played yesterday, so like either they're playing today or they're not.
• 54:48
  Speaker 4: It doesn't seem like an injury or something that like
• 54:50
  Speaker 4: they need to get over. I have no I have
• 54:54
  Speaker 4: no leen here do.
• 54:55
  Speaker 3: You, Steve kerrg goann Occur. I mean, Steph, I have
• 55:00
  Speaker 3: no clue.
• 55:00
  Speaker 2: I will say I think based on just the line itself,
• 55:05
  Speaker 2: maybe I mean we're coming off as saying Bory is
• 55:07
  Speaker 2: just beating by forty but seven and a half Timberwolves
• 55:09
  Speaker 2: at home. I feel like it'd be a little wider
• 55:11
  Speaker 2: if there was no courage.
• 55:12
  Speaker 4: I agree totally without parade Draymond, I think this game
• 55:15
  Speaker 4: gets to like minus twelve ish, so I'm still there.
• 55:19
  Speaker 3: That's telling me maybe, But I don't know.
• 55:21
  Speaker 4: I wanted to just shout out I know the guy
• 55:23
  Speaker 4: who asked us about Obert, and that's kind of the
• 55:25
  Speaker 4: flaw in box score watching. Yeah, he had ten points
• 55:29
  Speaker 4: last night against Golden State, but this is the second
• 55:31
  Speaker 4: they've played Golden State now twice. This will be the
• 55:33
  Speaker 4: third time he had fifty fantasy points in the first game. So, like,
• 55:37
  Speaker 4: to your point, like, just because you're in a good
• 55:40
  Speaker 4: spot doesn't mean you're gonna get there, but certainly it
• 55:42
  Speaker 4: makes you more appealing from a DFS perspective.
• 55:45
  Speaker 2: First, I mean, you can just go to it was
• 55:47
  Speaker 2: nothing about like Jon Robbinson, anyone watching defense and then
• 55:51
  Speaker 2: he'll ear you want, just in every DFS sport, like,
• 55:55
  Speaker 2: there's always ways they can fail even.
• 55:58
  Speaker 3: If against from yeah totally you name it.
• 56:03
  Speaker 2: So well, all right, let's go with this Warriors side
• 56:06
  Speaker 2: like pods will probably be the most popular play on
• 56:08
  Speaker 2: the slate, I'd imagine, because I mean, if Curry's out,
• 56:13
  Speaker 2: he only gets better, and if he's in, like you
• 56:14
  Speaker 2: see now, like he's still going to grade out.
• 56:17
  Speaker 3: Really well.
• 56:18
  Speaker 2: How are you gonna approach the situation though with Steph
• 56:20
  Speaker 2: and Draymond questionable if they are out like talk about
• 56:24
  Speaker 2: the Moodies. If there's no Draymon, like Trace Jackson and
• 56:27
  Speaker 2: Post both get very big bumps, both center eligible, both
• 56:31
  Speaker 2: of these solid values on the slate, though, will Richard
• 56:35
  Speaker 2: Gary Payton like, yeah, try and break down the Warriors
• 56:37
  Speaker 2: best you can. How are you going to attack the
• 56:39
  Speaker 2: slate with it like the last game to lock?
• 56:43
  Speaker 3: No.
• 56:43
  Speaker 4: I do think that if you're playing like minimal lineups
• 56:46
  Speaker 4: like someone like I do, then you're probably doing yourself
• 56:48
  Speaker 4: as disservice by not telling yourself a story going into
• 56:51
  Speaker 4: this slate of what's gonna happen with Golden State. You
• 56:53
  Speaker 4: can tell that story, however, you want with both of
• 56:56
  Speaker 4: them and both of them out, one of them in,
• 56:57
  Speaker 4: one of them out. As far as Curry and Draymond
• 57:00
  Speaker 4: themselves go, I'm with you. I don't buy the ownership,
• 57:03
  Speaker 4: but I do think that either one of them are
• 57:05
  Speaker 4: good plays if.
• 57:06
  Speaker 3: They are in.
• 57:07
  Speaker 4: I do kind of suspect that if one of them
• 57:09
  Speaker 4: is in, the other ones in and vice versa, either
• 57:12
  Speaker 4: they're going in or they're both out. So I didn't
• 57:14
  Speaker 4: say that before, but that's just my gut feel here.
• 57:17
  Speaker 3: As far as the other.
• 57:18
  Speaker 4: Guys go, Yeah, Pajemski looks really good no matter what.
• 57:21
  Speaker 4: He's already projecting as one of the best value plays
• 57:23
  Speaker 4: on the slate. And that's with those guys in. If
• 57:26
  Speaker 4: you take them out, he's gonna look elite at fifty
• 57:29
  Speaker 4: six hundred with shooting guard eligibility to go along with
• 57:32
  Speaker 4: being eligible point guard, so he would look really good.
• 57:35
  Speaker 4: I kind of feel the same about Moody, like he
• 57:37
  Speaker 4: already looks pretty good at forty seven hundred at small forward.
• 57:41
  Speaker 4: He would look really good at forty seven hundred at
• 57:43
  Speaker 4: small forward. Now, again, these guys aren't like three K,
• 57:47
  Speaker 4: so you are running into what I talked about a
• 57:50
  Speaker 4: little bit earlier, where like if you have Stephan Draymond
• 57:53
  Speaker 4: out to already go along with Butler out, and then
• 57:55
  Speaker 4: of course Horford et cetera being out kaminga, you're just
• 57:58
  Speaker 4: missing a lot of really good players. It wouldn't shock me,
• 58:00
  Speaker 4: It wouldn't shock anyone if this game we're like thirty
• 58:03
  Speaker 4: five to fourteen at the end of the first quarter
• 58:05
  Speaker 4: and these just these guys just aren't cheap enough to
• 58:08
  Speaker 4: automatically get there. That said, Pajenski in Moody would look
• 58:12
  Speaker 4: really good. Quintin Post already looks good. He would look
• 58:16
  Speaker 4: better opportunity costs at center. So I don't think he's
• 58:19
  Speaker 4: a lock, but I do think that he looks really
• 58:21
  Speaker 4: good from a value perspective, and the less opportunity costs
• 58:26
  Speaker 4: you have at center, the better a guy like Quinton
• 58:28
  Speaker 4: Post looks, because his twenty two to twenty four fantasy
• 58:32
  Speaker 4: points looks a lot better when you don't have a
• 58:35
  Speaker 4: jokicch and beat on this slate, which we don't. Buddy Field,
• 58:38
  Speaker 4: you'll go ahead.
• 58:39
  Speaker 2: I'll just say, and like his eighteen point seven, No,
• 58:42
  Speaker 2: Draymond is a huge bump for Post. For Trace Jackson
• 58:44
  Speaker 2: right there. Minutes rebounding, so that number can only go up.
• 58:48
  Speaker 2: He looks fine right now just because of kind of
• 58:51
  Speaker 2: how weak's center is. There's not really value there, but
• 58:53
  Speaker 2: it can only get better, which is the nice part.
• 58:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah, totally good call there.
• 58:57
  Speaker 4: There's just still guys here, So like buddy Gary Payton,
• 59:01
  Speaker 4: I think there are price tags where you can play them.
• 59:03
  Speaker 4: GUIs Santos would look a lot better if Draymond were out.
• 59:08
  Speaker 4: Will Richard and Pat Spencer would look a lot better
• 59:11
  Speaker 4: if Steph were out. I think we could see Pat
• 59:13
  Speaker 4: Spencer start at point guard if Steph were out and
• 59:15
  Speaker 4: at thirty two hundred I mentioned him earlier, he would
• 59:17
  Speaker 4: look good. TJD Trace Jackson Davis another college superstar. If
• 59:23
  Speaker 4: you follow college hoops, yeah, three K with Draymond out,
• 59:27
  Speaker 4: they'll just be lacking bodies inside. So I think that
• 59:31
  Speaker 4: he would be really interesting to me, especially if you're
• 59:33
  Speaker 4: like fading a bunch of this game and think it.
• 59:35
  Speaker 3: Does blow out at three K.
• 59:37
  Speaker 4: He should get all that blowout run and is likely
• 59:40
  Speaker 4: to be in the rotation. Anyways, I would never just play.
• 59:43
  Speaker 4: I'm basically any slate, and I know this is a
• 59:45
  Speaker 4: question we get asked a lot like blowout run, et cetera.
• 59:48
  Speaker 4: I'm never playing a guy I only expect to play
• 59:51
  Speaker 4: out to play a blowout run. But a guy like
• 59:54
  Speaker 4: Trace Jackson Davis, who I think could play good rotation
• 59:57
  Speaker 4: minutes here. If Draymond's out and will get bl lot run,
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 4: that's the guy I'm interested.
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 3: In for sure.
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 2: I mean, even when Draymond projected Post all of them,
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 2: he's still projected to get thirteen minutes and about twelve
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 2: DK points solid Fantasy point per minute.
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 3: Guy.
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 2: If Draymond's out, I assume Post and Trace Jackson probably
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 2: split all forty eight at center. Is that how you
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 2: see it?
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah, especially with Minnesota being pretty big inside.
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Gobert nas McDaniels is long, like they're gonna be
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 2: big pretty much all game.
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I would totally agree with that.
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah. So I man like, so just the last thing
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 2: to wrap up this game. You're more hand builds than
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 2: the one fifty mm me stuff. But so, like, if
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 2: you're playing five teams or whatever you like, are you
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 2: gonna have at least.
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 3: Three spots at least four spots in the late game
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 3: on every team? Are you fine just jamming these first
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 3: four games? Like six of the eight spots and only
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 3: having two left.
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 2: If you do do so, I wouldn't have Draymond and
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 2: Steph as one of them unless you can like have
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 2: the three hundred, and I just would rather play ants anyways.
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 2: So yeah, what's your just thought process on that for
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 2: a single entry three max type stuff?
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 4: Difficult right now for me to answer that with too
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 4: much validity because I haven't built yet. I definitely am
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 4: not gonna be just jamming all the first four games
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 4: and not leaving any roster spots.
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 3: The problem is.
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 4: Is, like to your point, do you leave two and
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 4: like then you don't really have much flexibility. Do you
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 4: leave five and then you can kind of do it
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 4: yet whatever you want, but then you're not playing a
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 4: lot of the first four games. To be perfectly honest,
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 4: I don't think there is a right or wrong answer.
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 4: I think there are ways to build positive ROI lineups
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 4: doing both.
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 3: I do think that.
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 4: Golden state, especially if Steph and Draymond are out, it's
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 4: just gonna be impossible to get away from. Even as
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 4: I mentioned in that blowout scenario, then you're gonna want
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 4: a couple of the cheap guys. So yeah, I think
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 4: that you're definitely gonna want to save at least a
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 4: couple roster spots, and depending on how you feel about
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 4: the first four games compared to this game, is kind
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 4: of how you want to play it out. I don't have,
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 4: like exactly how I'm gonna do it, because I haven't
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 4: built yet, nor do I think there is one right
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 4: or wrong way to go about doing it.
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 2: I agree, I do think more for most of my teams,
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 2: i'd want at least three roster spots, and even three
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 2: might feel a little light. I think four and five
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 2: would feel really good. But again, if you're making multiple teams,
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 2: maybe on one of your three teams, you only have
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 2: two spots left because that game's going to blow out
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 2: and bust, and maybe you play the Golden State value
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 2: on those teams and tell a story, and your other
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 2: two teams you have more flexibility that way. Like it's
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 2: portfolio like, however many lineups you have, you want to
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 2: balance out your portfolio in different ways. Loading up that
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 2: game blows out, loading up early games, I think you'll
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 2: get an ownership discount the more you do that. But
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 2: I would definitely if I only had one team, I'm
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 2: leaving at least four spots for that last game and
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 2: giving myself wiggle room to adjust because if Dray and
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 2: Steph are out, you're gonna want more than more than
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 2: two Warriors more than likely.
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I totally agree with that.
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 4: I do think that, you know, I kind of said,
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 4: you want to tell a story for the slate, you
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 4: want to tell a story for every lineup you're making.
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 4: And I do think that this is the type of
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 4: slate that certainly benefits someone who multi enters, just because
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 4: there is so much Golden State nonsense to kind of
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 4: dissect and it's almost like finding a needle in a
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 4: haystack knowing exactly where to go on Golden State.
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 3: So this is the type of slate.
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 4: I do think that if you're multi entering, you have
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 4: an edge up on those who aren't.
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just the when you are multi mass multi entering,
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 2: it's it's really hard to get specific about how many
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 2: players are left.
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 4: And like it's difficult to do, but if you know
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 4: what you're doing forget your edge hundred percent right there.
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's gonna do it. That's all five games on
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 3: this slate.
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 2: Again, I just wanted to show if you do want
• 1:03:56

  Speaker 2: you get out here.
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 4: Now kind of a typical Monday night MBA slate with
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 4: a lot of late news. I kind of wish that
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 4: late game wasn't on the slate, but it obviously gives
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 4: more edge if you are playing the slate, so it
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 4: should be a good time. And congrats again to you
• 1:05:00
