• 0:41
  Speaker 2: Shipping Nation YouTube station. We are back with another edition

  Speaker 2: of the NBA Show. We got four games on tap.
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: We got your boy Hamd, we got my guy title.

  Speaker 2: Sitting in for Rio today. Hey, I'm happy to be here.
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: I'm hosting.
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: I got the legendary host with me today, but I'm
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: doing the hosting title. What's going on? Man? It's probably
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: I don't know seventy five eighty degrees where you're at.
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: But how's your week been going? Give me a weather
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: update out there in sunny Arizona.
• 1:06
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it is definitely sunny. It's been a little windy
• 1:09
  Speaker 4: as of late, but I ain't gonna complain. Seventy three
• 1:12
  Speaker 4: and I just looked back home. It's nineteen degrees.
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: So living the dream over here.
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: Yeah, gonna take the dogs out for a walk after this.
• 1:19
  Speaker 4: Absolutely loving it in Arizona. I know Rio's out snowboarding.
• 1:23
  Speaker 4: I think he's in Utah, So enjoy it.
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: Rio.
• 1:25
  Speaker 4: I will do my best to sit in the chair
• 1:29
  Speaker 4: for Rio. But yeah, by no means know all the
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: in and outs and the pick and roll stats and
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: this and that. I mean I will look at projection,
• 1:37
  Speaker 4: I will look at ownership. I will look at game
• 1:39
  Speaker 4: theory numbers, stuff like that, who's in, who's out, and
• 1:42
  Speaker 4: try and do my best. But you were going to
• 1:44
  Speaker 4: get one tenth of what Rio gives. It's a little
• 1:47
  Speaker 4: easier to be in that hosting role. But yeah, excited
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: talks the ball with you.
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess I'm actually filling it for Rio, but
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: me and you kind of switch chairs a little bit.
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: But yeah, Rio knows what they ate for breakfast this morning.
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: We'll do our best to fill in. We appreciate everybody
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: tuning in. We got our guy go collect in here.
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: The answer. What's going on?
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: Answer?
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: Gang Green AFC tour in my lanes. Nice to see
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: you again in here as always, we got four games.
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: We'll get it in here probably twenty five thirty minutes. We'll
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: do our best to break it all down for you today.
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: Still it's the Big Boy priced at or Big Boy
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: Prizes up top with several fifty k DraftKings. But hey,
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: let's get right into it. Let's get right into it. Title.
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: We'll go with our first game on the on the slate,
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: I'm showing our stone over here, you know, proprietary things
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: that we got over here. The first game on the
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: slate is the seventy six ers in Memphis to take
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: on this On this Grizzly team, the big news here
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: title is going to be Joel Embiid. He is listed
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: as questionable right now and if he's out, drumming should
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: start at center and you'd also get a big usage
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: bump for Maxi and George and on the flip side
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: on the Grizzly side, I know Jacques Landell missed the
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: other night, KCP is out tonight, and then the whole
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: litany of Aventuries, Scotti, Pippen. A bunch of these dudes
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: have been out for quite some time, so we won't
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: list them all, but talk to me a little bit
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: about this game. Should be a good, good game from
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: a fantasy perspective. We got a two hundred and thirty
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: four and a half point total, but seventy six ers
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: at the Grizzlies.
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so on this lad with only four games. I
• 3:14
  Speaker 4: also like to see the different star times for each game,
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: so definitely important for late swap. Eight eastern is the
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: star time, so an hour later than usual, and we
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: got one game at nine eastern the Boston, Boston and
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: Utah I think the best DFS game of the night.
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: Then the last two not as appealing for DFS, but
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: it's a four game slay. You only can be so
• 3:33
  Speaker 4: picky ten thirty and eleven Eastern, so if you are
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: playing tonight, definitely be around your computer. We definitely have
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: some important news for the Utah game, which means I
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: don't want to go too crazy, assuming we don't get
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: like Keante George News, I don't wanted to go to
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: too crazy in this game, assuming and beads in. If
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: it beads out, Phillip becomes a little more interesting. There's
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: also two of the games, so this one minus one
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: and a half point spread for the Grizzlies and the
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: Pistons two and at point favorites, but Boston and the
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: Clippers you're looking at eight and a half and nine
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: and a half. So in terms of games supposed to
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: stay close, this is one as a solid total of
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: two thirty four and a half. If EMBIID is in,
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: I think Embiid's interesting at eighty three hundred, definitely a
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: solid price tag there, and in terms of centers on
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: this slate, it's fine, but it's not very strong. I
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: think Kita will be pretty popular. I think Brook Lopez
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: is solid for value, possibly Nurkic, but it's by no
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: means a like a center slate like we saw yesterday.
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: So when people are saving at center, I definitely would
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: have some interest in Embiid. Eighty three hundred is definitely
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: a solid price tag for him. We've seen him play
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: thirty minutes thirty plus in five straight games.
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: Usage is sitting around thirty ish.
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: Everything looks pretty solid for Embiid at a center position
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: that I'll think's too strong.
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: So if he's in, sign me up.
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: If he's out, definitely, Andre Drummond, great point per mintic guy.
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: He is six k.
• 4:59
  Speaker 4: Though it's not like a free square, I still think
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: you'd be strong. And then yeah, Paul George VJ Edgecomb,
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: Tyrese MAXI would all get a big bump there, and
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: I'd ask some interest if Embiid is in, though I
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: don't really want to get to any of PG, Edgecomb MAXI.
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: It's a lot harder to get to these guys fully
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: priced when Embiad's on the court. When all these guys
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: are on the court, so important news. We'll obviously get
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: it before lock. If em beads in. It's really just
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: embid for me. If he's out, then the Paul George
• 5:29
  Speaker 4: edgecomb MAXI and then possibly Barlow I think would be
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: would be a fine value as well. At forty eight
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: hundred with Drummond Memphis side not really were or no
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: Q takes there that are important. Value is tough on
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: the slate like GG Jackson. I mean, I haven't projected
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: for like eighteen points and we're still showing to have
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: a decent amount of ownership on him. He has the
• 5:52
  Speaker 4: nice power forward eligibility. Power forwards pretty weak on the slates,
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: and again, there just isn't much appealing value right now.
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: If Cante, George and stuff got ruled out this late
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: would change that way. Sense of all looks good when
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: we talk about Utah. He has small forward eligibility though,
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: and shooting guards, so power forward's week. I think j
• 6:11
  Speaker 4: Jackson's fine, And outside of that, Santy al Dam has
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: been playing great basketball. I'm definitely interested in him. The
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: price is up at seventy one hundred power forward center eligible,
• 6:21
  Speaker 4: and then I guess Jaw.
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: I'm definitely not in love with Jaw. In terms of DFS,
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: it hasn't been great for him. But if we're looking
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: at like who are the spends on this late, I
• 6:33
  Speaker 4: think Jalen Brown, Kawhi Leonard are definitely the the most
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: popular ones. And the price take on Jaw, you don't
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: have to spend all the way up there. So I'm
• 6:41
  Speaker 4: curious to hear your take with joh With Jah, he's
• 6:44
  Speaker 4: one of been going back and forth.
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I would. I'm with you on Jaw. The
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: one name you didn't mention that I was hoping you
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: would was was going to be Jaron Jackson Junior. He's
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: seventy seven hundred. He's had back to back games of
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: forty nine and fifty two points, so he seems to
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: be turning it on. He's playing right about thirty minutes
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: thirty to thirty five minutes every night, which kind of
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: leads the way for them. But with Jaw at that
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: price tag, there's just other guards that are going to
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: play into, you know, thirty five plus minutes, where I
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: think his ceiling is like twenty eight minutes, right, They're
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: trying to keep him in that twenty four to twenty
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: eight minutes. And to me, he's not that win b
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: type of guy in terms of where he can just
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: stuff the stat sheet in twenty four minutes and get
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: you know, forty five points. So for me, it's it's
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: Jaron Jackson Junior. I love your call on Santi al Dama.
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: He's been hoping and I like that price tag at
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: seventy one hundred dollars and he's dual position eligibility, so
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: those would be my favorite two. And then Cedric Coward
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: he's fifty eight hundred. He just hasn't been playing that
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: well and playing that much. He's playing right around twenty
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: five minutes and not as well. And for me, that
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: fifty eight hundred dollars is too much. So really, for
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: me on this, it's al Dama, it's Jackson. And I
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: would say the one place where I disagree with you
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: just a little bit, it's gonna be Tyres MAXI. But
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: I think you said you liked him if it beats out.
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: But if it beats out, I think he shoots way
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: up the board because he's gonna chuck it, what twenty
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: five thirty times? For sure? You like him with embad
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: In not as much, right because em Beads just gonna
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: you know, dominate the ball so much. Uh. But if
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: it beats out then, Yeah, but but I kind of
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: agree with you. It's like it's embiid or really nobody
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: for me on on on the seventy six er side,
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: And I don't even love it bead that much, to
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: be honest with you.
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: Jared Jackson, call is definitely interesting. Like I mentioned Power
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: Forwards week, like go Klec's saying, a lot of people
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: will spend down and try and get out cheap because
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: there's not much appealing. And then if people do spend up,
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: I think it's probably Lori Marknen, who I do prefer
• 8:48
  Speaker 4: in a VACU, but just two hundred less. It's a
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: great pivot on a four game slate. You do have
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: to worry about ownership a little more and stuff like that. Yeah,
• 8:56
  Speaker 4: two solid games back to back. I didn't mention it
• 8:59
  Speaker 4: right away because I mean his floor is very low,
• 9:02
  Speaker 4: which if you're playing tournaments you just know that as
• 9:05
  Speaker 4: ceilings high, which is nice. But I just hate getting
• 9:08
  Speaker 4: the Grizzlies when the fully priced, like they're gonna go
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: ten deep. And yeah that John Morant. The more you
• 9:13
  Speaker 4: look at it's only projected for twenty six minutes. He
• 9:16
  Speaker 4: hasn't shown anything. Probably more of a stay away. But yeah,
• 9:19
  Speaker 4: if Embad's in, this game is not nearly as appealing
• 9:22
  Speaker 4: if he is out.
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: I do think you're gonna want to play some of
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: these seventy six ers, our.
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: Boy, Jake said Ebiid stinks. I don't know about stinks, Jake,
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: but but he's definitely injury prone. And you know that
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: would be the worst. Right when you play and b
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: you can get that notification from underdog like em Beid
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: headed to the locker room like six minutes in. It's
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: just like, oh man, that's the worst. Like the the
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: Aaron Jones of NBA, right there is that Aaron Jones.
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: Dude just is so tilting to ruster.
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: Who's Anthony Davis for the NFL.
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: There you go, Yeah, good stuff there. Moving on to
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: the next game, This is gonna have a lot of
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: fantasy goodness said it. We got the Celtics slay to
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: score one hundred and twenty five points taking on the
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: Jazz where defense is optional there in Utah. But Keyontae
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: George is gonna be the biggest news here. He has
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: listened as questionable, so make sure you're tuning into that.
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: And then you mentioned a minute ago Jalen Brown's gonna
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: be popular tonight, and rightfully so. Still know Jason Tatum,
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: obviously he's been out for quite some time. Biggest news
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: for Utah is Ace Bailey is gonna miss this one.
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: And you alluded to Bryce sense in ball a minute ago,
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: so I'll hand it over to you. Talked to me
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: a little bit about this game. Celtics at the Jazz.
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: I mean, yeah, this is the game that you want
• 10:36
  Speaker 4: to load up on for DFS. The Celtics are fully healthy.
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: I'll start with that side because I think it's a
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: little more tricky with Utah and the questionable takes and stuff.
• 10:44
  Speaker 4: But I mean the prices on these guys, Hey, Utah
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: plays no defense. We're implied one hundred and twenty five points.
• 10:51
  Speaker 4: The next highest on the slates is like one hundred
• 10:53
  Speaker 4: and seventeen for Philly and Detroit. I mean, these guys
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: are just gonna get up and down and get a
• 10:57
  Speaker 4: lot of easy looks. I like all of thes. Give
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: me Peyton Pritchard at six to four, Derek White at
• 11:03
  Speaker 4: seven to four, even Anferny Simon's at four to one.
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: I think he's pretty interesting. Obviously, the minutes aren't great,
• 11:11
  Speaker 4: only projected for twenty looking at sabers him, but when
• 11:14
  Speaker 4: he's on the court, he'll chuck it. And we're talking
• 11:16
  Speaker 4: about a lot of lack of value, like I mentioned G. G.
• 11:18
  Speaker 4: Jackson in the last game. Outside of Brian Sensiba or
• 11:23
  Speaker 4: Bryce Sensaba, who will be talking about I don't think
• 11:26
  Speaker 4: on the Utah side, I don't think you're comfortable with
• 11:28
  Speaker 4: any of these value clicks four point five k and below.
• 11:31
  Speaker 4: So give me a guy that when he is on
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: the court, he'll he'll shoot it and he can get hot.
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: We've seen them get hot plenty So yeah, I think
• 11:39
  Speaker 4: Efferney Simon's a very interesting, relatively low owned option. Outside
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: of them, I mentioned Nemus Kita as well. Center's pretty
• 11:49
  Speaker 4: weak on this lid. I do think he probably is
• 11:51
  Speaker 4: the most popular fifty three hundred price tag. Twenty four
• 11:56
  Speaker 4: to twenty five minutes point per minute guy, he gets
• 11:58
  Speaker 4: you twenty five on this lit n. Maybe you want
• 12:02
  Speaker 4: a little more at that ownership twenty seven to twenty
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: eight very well could be enough. So I think how
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: many Celtics is too many? I could play four of them.
• 12:11
  Speaker 4: Prichard White, Jalen Brown, I know Rio usually says he
• 12:14
  Speaker 4: makes a rule max two of them and more than
• 12:16
  Speaker 4: likely a handbuilds. I wouldn't get put in all three
• 12:19
  Speaker 4: of them, but it's a four game slates like I
• 12:22
  Speaker 4: definitely like Derek White and Prichard more than.
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: Jaw and stuff we just talked about.
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: Now some stuff could change if Kant George is out,
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: so flipping over to the Utah side. If he's out,
• 12:33
  Speaker 4: I think Walter Clayton thirty four hundred becomes a very
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: strong play, Isaiah Collier probably becomes a better play at
• 12:39
  Speaker 4: forty three hundred, and then the Gig Jackson, the Simons
• 12:43
  Speaker 4: of the world become a lot worse plays because you
• 12:46
  Speaker 4: would have guard value. Kant George is, I mean, what
• 12:49
  Speaker 4: a complete study's been this year. A lot of minutes,
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: a lot of usage, a lot goes off the courts
• 12:54
  Speaker 4: and has to be filled. If he is out, then
• 12:56
  Speaker 4: I think Lori markin in seven to nine, who I
• 12:58
  Speaker 4: think is already a pretty solid play for the price.
• 13:01
  Speaker 4: He would become one of the best plays on the
• 13:03
  Speaker 4: slate at a week power forward position. If Kyante's in,
• 13:07
  Speaker 4: I think Caanty would be good at eight point one km.
• 13:09
  Speaker 4: He's just been so good this year, and I think
• 13:11
  Speaker 4: his ownership would stay in check. I would want to
• 13:14
  Speaker 4: play Kiante for the upside in a high paced game,
• 13:18
  Speaker 4: so plenty of guys to like in this one. The
• 13:20
  Speaker 4: last two, I'll mention again Senseiball is going to be
• 13:23
  Speaker 4: starting for Sorry, let me do some I'm trying to
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: call starting for Ace Bailey and there's just no value
• 13:31
  Speaker 4: on the slate, So he's going to be one of
• 13:33
  Speaker 4: the most popular, probably the most popular play in the slate.
• 13:36
  Speaker 4: I could have like seventy five percent of him today,
• 13:38
  Speaker 4: assuming that Embat is in and Kyante's in and nothing
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: opens up. Last one, I'll mention Nurkic again. Center position
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: is pretty weak. I'm not sure how much I love
• 13:47
  Speaker 4: it though in the up and down game, A little
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: worry that could go small and go lowry at the five.
• 13:55
  Speaker 4: But again, I wish Rio was here to confirm that
• 13:58
  Speaker 4: or not. But yeah, I think just be center is
• 14:00
  Speaker 4: pretty weak. You'll see ownership on Cada on Nurkic here,
• 14:04
  Speaker 4: But I mean, sign me up for this game.
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: Even if Keante is in.
• 14:08
  Speaker 4: I want to play probably at least four in this game,
• 14:11
  Speaker 4: and majority of my teams five, and I could do
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: six as well. I could do three or four Boston
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: and then two or three Jazz on the other side
• 14:19
  Speaker 4: as well.
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: This is the game of the night for DFS.
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: I was going to ask you any kind of and
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: I'm the same with you as I don't think five
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: is too many. Definitely four is not too many. I
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: think five you could probably even do as well, like
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: a three to two combo or two three horeve you
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: want to do it, But that's kind of my take
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: on that. And then, uh, you kind of said it
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: if if if George does miss I think Walter Clayton
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: is a phenomenal play At thirty four hundred dollars, I
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: actually like him a lot better than Callier. He played
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: twenty two efficient Ministery then I think he put up
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: thirty DraftKings points six or six from the field. In
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: my opinion, he's just better than Isaiah Caller. I mean,
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: we saw it last year when he won the National Championship.
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: I know it's a different game, but I think I
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: think Clayton is just a baller, and uh why not
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: put him in there right to take on to take
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: on the Celtics. So I like, really like Clayton. If
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: if George Misses. George has been a stud all season,
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: so he's in play for me. And then I keep
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: having this Rio buzzing in my ear title talking about
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: how bad the Jazz are defending the three pointers and
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: what does that mean? That means Peyton Pritchard, that means
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: Derek White, my two favorite Celtics. Tonight, they're slated to
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: score one hundred and twenty five, you know, like like
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: you always talk about, like we're not gonna slip the
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: Celtics by anybody, that they're gonna be popular, But it's
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: for good reason. I think I saw the other day
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: where's they've given up what one hundred and twenty five points,
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: and I think it was like four or five six
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: straight games. They just don't play much defense, a lot
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: of fantasy goodness coming from them, So uh yeah, I
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: think four uh is okay. I think five is okay.
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: I think six is probably one too many. But you
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: make a fine a team or two that could do
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: that else on this game or do you want to
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: move on to the next one?
• 16:02
  Speaker 4: Yeah, if you think this game blows out in four
• 16:04
  Speaker 4: game slates. I don't really play this road too much,
• 16:07
  Speaker 4: but I know Rio talks you just talk about how much,
• 16:09
  Speaker 4: how many threes they give up. I mean Sam Hauser
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: the definition of a sniper thirty eight hundred. I also
• 16:15
  Speaker 4: think Luca Garza at a week center position if you
• 16:19
  Speaker 4: want to like fully punt it at four k. Pretty
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: much people are playing Cada, or they're playing Nurkic, or
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: they're playing a little ended. If you just want to
• 16:26
  Speaker 4: get in a different price range and those guys bust
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: and guards. That gets you five X or whatever and
• 16:31
  Speaker 4: allows you to spend for some other stuff. I guess
• 16:34
  Speaker 4: I don't hate that as well. We'll get normal run
• 16:37
  Speaker 4: and then if it does go to garbage high, maybe
• 16:39
  Speaker 4: you could addend a couple more. So it's just a
• 16:41
  Speaker 4: phenomenal game, no other way to put it. Canty George
• 16:45
  Speaker 4: news is important because it could even open up more
• 16:48
  Speaker 4: stuff for Utah. But even if he's in, like those
• 16:51
  Speaker 4: Utah guys are good, and I think Kante would be
• 16:53
  Speaker 4: a great tournament play as well. And yep, week power
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: forward position Houser is sitting there, so yeah, that that's
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: a game. When we talk about these last two games,
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: not nearly as appealing for me in terms of DFS.
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and Nerk would be the last one I see
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: where Juice doesn't necessarily like light NERK, but I do
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: like NRK at six K. I know it was like
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: two months ago, but when they played Boston earlier this
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: year he did he still played thirty one minutes. I
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: think he put up thirty five forty DraftKings points. I
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: just like the way he plays man. He's very efficient
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: around the rim. He can block shots, gets rebounds and
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: things like that. So it's six K. I think he's
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: he's squarely in play as well. But moving on to
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: the next game we got, it should be a pretty
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: good game. Lakers had to come to Jesus meeting after
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: get embarrassed on the Rockets on Christmas Eve or Christmas Night.
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: Now take on the Pistons. The East leading Pistons with
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: Kay Cuttingham and crew. Biggest news out of this one
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: is you're not gonna get Austin Reeves, You're not gonna
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: get Ruby Hatshimora both with Calves they are out. But
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: then on the other side a little less important. But
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: Kris Lavert probably not gonna play in this and I
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: think he's listed as doubtful on this slate. But Jake
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: Laavia is gonna get the start tonight for Rui and
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: then Marcus Smart as well for Austin Reeve. So talk
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: to me a little bit about this game. We still
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: have a two hundred and thirty two and a half
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: point total title. So talk to me about this game.
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: Pistons at the Lakers.
• 18:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah, the problem is, like on the Lakers side, it's
• 18:25
  Speaker 4: just so much Luca where like I mean, Lebron has
• 18:29
  Speaker 4: been he's been dust this year. There's no other way
• 18:31
  Speaker 4: to put it.
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: Nine K.
• 18:32
  Speaker 4: I don't really want to spend up at that price tag.
• 18:35
  Speaker 4: Luca is the one. I'm saying eight percent. We have
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: a projected ownership. If that's the case, you can always
• 18:39
  Speaker 4: play Luca. Now again I'm talking about the lack of
• 18:42
  Speaker 4: value and how it gets hard, which is why Luca
• 18:44
  Speaker 4: is solo owned. But if you haven't projected at sixty
• 18:49
  Speaker 4: two or whatever and he gets you seventy five, you
• 18:51
  Speaker 4: might need him, and that's when maybe a Luca gar
• 18:53
  Speaker 4: is that to get different or the Gig Jackson we're
• 18:56
  Speaker 4: talking about in this game some other value. I do
• 18:59
  Speaker 4: think there's three guys on the Lakers that you can
• 19:01
  Speaker 4: play for some value. To Jake Lauravia, who should be starting.
• 19:04
  Speaker 4: I like his game a lot. The problem is because
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: there's no Rui as well. Again, the problem is with
• 19:10
  Speaker 4: how bald dominant Luca is and with Lebron is. There's
• 19:13
  Speaker 4: only so many looks. But four point nine k is
• 19:15
  Speaker 4: a good price. Take think he's a good hooper, and
• 19:17
  Speaker 4: then I think Jared Vanderbilt and Marcus Smart three point
• 19:20
  Speaker 4: nine k power forward at the week position Marcus Smart
• 19:23
  Speaker 4: four point five k. I mean the thing was Smart
• 19:26
  Speaker 4: is Rio and I talked about I think it was
• 19:28
  Speaker 4: last week. His floor is definitely low, his ceilings high.
• 19:31
  Speaker 4: Random days he's the man, and the random days he
• 19:33
  Speaker 4: costs himself or cost the team. But a lot of defenses,
• 19:37
  Speaker 4: a lot of these teams have been leaving Smart open,
• 19:40
  Speaker 4: and if he's open, he will shoot the three. And
• 19:42
  Speaker 4: if he gets hot, he can add a points in
• 19:44
  Speaker 4: a bunch it or he can put up points in bunches.
• 19:47
  Speaker 4: And we're really showing five percent, So I think he's interesting. Again,
• 19:51
  Speaker 4: that would be like assuming Keyante's in. Smart is pretty
• 19:54
  Speaker 4: much irrelevant if he's out, because then Clayton, because Collier,
• 19:58
  Speaker 4: because there's more value that way. But twelf k Luca
• 20:02
  Speaker 4: eight percent, that's something I do want to get overweight on.
• 20:05
  Speaker 4: I think La Ravia, Vanderbilt, Marcus Smart are some value
• 20:08
  Speaker 4: options that can help. On the other side, another very
• 20:11
  Speaker 4: strong value play Jaden Ivy. He got up to twenty
• 20:14
  Speaker 4: eight minutes last game. He's I mean, I've liked watching
• 20:18
  Speaker 4: Ivy hoop the past couple of years. When he's on
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: the court, you see he's coming off the bench. That's
• 20:22
  Speaker 4: good for him. His minutes are more staggered with caid
• 20:26
  Speaker 4: and some higher usage guys. I think he's a very
• 20:28
  Speaker 4: strong guard play point guard and shooting guard eligible and
• 20:31
  Speaker 4: then kind of like I talked about Gigi Jackson, this
• 20:33
  Speaker 4: Ronald Holland guy. Do I love it? Not really, but
• 20:37
  Speaker 4: he should play twenty twenty one minutes. He has a
• 20:40
  Speaker 4: small four power forward eligible eligibility. If it gets me,
• 20:43
  Speaker 4: Luca gets me, Jalen Brown and Derek White and stuff
• 20:47
  Speaker 4: like that. I don't think you necessarily need five x
• 20:49
  Speaker 4: at the power forward position right now. He's a way
• 20:52
  Speaker 4: to get off really cheap projected around fifteen, which is fine.
• 20:56
  Speaker 4: Outside of that, I really think it's just a zerr
• 20:59
  Speaker 4: Tom Sin and Tobias. I'm not really mentioning kid. You
• 21:03
  Speaker 4: can always play kid, but at ten point five K.
• 21:05
  Speaker 4: I think I just would rather get to Luca or
• 21:07
  Speaker 4: focus on the Jalen Brown, the Prichard Keante if he
• 21:11
  Speaker 4: plays Kawhi. I think the mid tier build is a
• 21:14
  Speaker 4: lot stronger due to the lack of value, And I
• 21:18
  Speaker 4: just think if someone's absolutely breaking the slate getting me
• 21:20
  Speaker 4: seventy five plus, Luca has a lot better chance than
• 21:23
  Speaker 4: Cad in a fully healthy Detroit team. So any thoughts
• 21:27
  Speaker 4: for you on like a Zerr Thompson and Tobias. I
• 21:29
  Speaker 4: think they fit mid tier bill with relatively low ownership,
• 21:33
  Speaker 4: which is why I'm interested, but I just don't know
• 21:36
  Speaker 4: really what they give me.
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think Jade and Ivy. I think the problem
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: with the sar Thompson is that he's just not very
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: good at basketball, so he's hard. He's hard to roster
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: even at fifty six hundred. But yeah, I mean you
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: see it there, right, Ivy's gonna come with a ton
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: of ownership, and rightfully so if he plays thirty minutes
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: again like you did last time at thirty nine hundred dollars,
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: he's gonna pay that off at Luca at eight percent
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: title that that's that's shocking to me, right, I understand
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: he's twelve he's twelve k, but like, who on this
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: slate can put up like a seventy five eighty point performance, Like,
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: there's not many, right, and he's one of them. In
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: my opinion, he's almost guaranteed to get a triple double.
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: I like what you said though about the touchdown, when
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: you know when you got him on the court and Lebron,
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: you know, there's not many shots, not many touches to
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: go around. But I definitely like Luca. I like Ivy
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: on the other side, I would imagine it's virtually impossible
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: to get to get Kid and Luca on the same team. Yeah.
• 22:34
  Speaker 4: Yeah, So even just like the lukea ownership of eight percent,
• 22:38
  Speaker 4: if Keante George is out or embiid would uh and
• 22:41
  Speaker 4: Beid out. Maybe it raised a little bit, but I
• 22:44
  Speaker 4: think people would go to the Maxi's.
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: The Edge Combs and it would still stay in mid
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: tier build.
• 22:47
  Speaker 4: But if you Keante is out and the Clayton the
• 22:50
  Speaker 4: Collier and that value opens, Luca might go up to
• 22:53
  Speaker 4: like fifteen percent.
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: It could almost double.
• 22:55
  Speaker 4: It's really just the nature of the slate with how
• 22:57
  Speaker 4: bad value is. It's pretty uncomfortable to click him where
• 23:00
  Speaker 4: to go after that. But we mentioned enough like Jade
• 23:03
  Speaker 4: and Ivy Strong, Sensible Strong, la Ravia is in play,
• 23:07
  Speaker 4: Marcus Smart Vanderbilt, Like we have mentioned some value that
• 23:10
  Speaker 4: you can make it work. And I do plan on
• 23:12
  Speaker 4: getting overweight eight percent now, but do know if if
• 23:15
  Speaker 4: George is out, especially that that eight percent is going
• 23:18
  Speaker 4: to probably double.
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, this is a good point too, is like if
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: Lavert being out just helps helps Ivy get more minutes
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: and then and then yeah, like this as well, you
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: know Ivy and Sensible and you know, like you said,
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: maybe al Rabia or Smart or somebody on the on
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: the Grizzlies helps you unlock or Walter Clayton helps you
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: unlock ah A Luca in this matchup. Excellent stuff there.
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: We appreciate all two hundred of you tune it in.
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: If you haven't done so yet, make sure you hit
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: that like, make sure you hitting that subscribe button. We
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: got one more game left and this four gamer to
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: walk through. We startainly appreciate all of you tuning in.
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: We've got the Kings with no Sabonis, he's still out
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: taking on the Clippers and the newly minted What did
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: Harden call it a double nickel mister Kawhi, Leonard fresh
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: braids as well after getting water dumped on him. Still
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: no Bradley Beal for them, Zubac is out. The biggest
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: news I guess would be John John Collins has an
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: illness and it's listed as questionable and Nicholas Batoon would start.
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: But any love for any of these Kings? Russell Westbrook
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: revenge game if I may title, there's always revenge games
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: with him. He's been on like seven teams. But any
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: love for fresh, freshly new braided up Kawhi in this
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: matchup as well?
• 24:36
  Speaker 4: Kings, Yeah, Clippers, I'll start King side because it's a
• 24:39
  Speaker 4: lot quicker. I mean, the problem with Westbrook is he's
• 24:42
  Speaker 4: eight k Like I shout out to Westbrook. He's been
• 24:45
  Speaker 4: phenomenal this year. He's doing a ton for the team.
• 24:47
  Speaker 4: But at ak Man, you really need to get there now.
• 24:51
  Speaker 4: I'll never follow anyone for clicking Westy because he does
• 24:54
  Speaker 4: just have that stupid sixty five point upside on random nights.
• 24:57
  Speaker 4: I don't see myself getting there though. I think a
• 24:59
  Speaker 4: lot better options in that Aks range, or like slightly
• 25:04
  Speaker 4: below with even Pritchard White, with Jalen Brown right around
• 25:07
  Speaker 4: there or getting up to Kawhi hard and I prefer
• 25:09
  Speaker 4: going all doing all of that. I think the only, yeah,
• 25:15
  Speaker 4: probably the only King that I've interests is this Maxim
• 25:18
  Speaker 4: Ryanet guy. And I might have butchered his name, but
• 25:21
  Speaker 4: he's made me some cheese this year. He is, He's nice.
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: I mean again, I butcher in his name and I'm
• 25:27
  Speaker 4: calling the dude nice. I don't really watch too many
• 25:29
  Speaker 4: Kings games, and when I do, when I'm watching hoops,
• 25:32
  Speaker 4: I'm watching multiple games on League Pass and I'm not
• 25:34
  Speaker 4: really listening to the Kings. But yeah, I mean, this
• 25:37
  Speaker 4: guy is solid. He has some upside, Yeah, and it's
• 25:40
  Speaker 4: mainly just that week center position, and he's showing we
• 25:43
  Speaker 4: got him eight percent. People are gonna rather go Nurkic
• 25:46
  Speaker 4: for a little more or Kada for a little less.
• 25:48
  Speaker 4: So just game theory wise and how he fits, I
• 25:51
  Speaker 4: think he's the only King that I've had I have
• 25:54
  Speaker 4: interested in. Otherwise, they're fully healthiest, the bonus been out
• 25:58
  Speaker 4: for a while, and the prices are all according the
• 26:02
  Speaker 4: prices are right for for all these guys. So yeah,
• 26:05
  Speaker 4: he's the only guy that I'd look at if someone
• 26:07
  Speaker 4: wants to put in that like the hyphens and stuff,
• 26:10
  Speaker 4: how to actually pronounce his name. Then I would max, Yeah, yeah,
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: you Banks is back. That's that's baked in. We already
• 26:20
  Speaker 4: know that. That's I mean, if you Banks was out
• 26:22
  Speaker 4: ray now would probably be forty percent or something like that.
• 26:26
  Speaker 4: But I still think he has upside at that price
• 26:28
  Speaker 4: tag at a pretty weak center position the clipper side.
• 26:32
  Speaker 4: I mean, shot yeah, Kawhi absolutely insane what he did
• 26:36
  Speaker 4: him and Hard and I both have interest in, and
• 26:38
  Speaker 4: I would probably max one. I'm playing a lot of teams,
• 26:42
  Speaker 4: so I'm not going to make the rule. I'm not
• 26:43
  Speaker 4: sure how much I would get to them anyway, but
• 26:46
  Speaker 4: they're playing like upper thirties minutes every single night. If
• 26:49
  Speaker 4: this game does say competitive, and even if it doesn't,
• 26:52
  Speaker 4: if it doesn't, it's probably because of one of those two.
• 26:55
  Speaker 4: Kawhi has been the one that's clearly done a lot
• 26:57
  Speaker 4: better as of late. I mean, he just put up
• 26:59
  Speaker 4: ninety DK points against the Pistons, absolutely insane. But his
• 27:03
  Speaker 4: last couple of games twenty six shot attempts twenty twenty three,
• 27:06
  Speaker 4: twenty four, seventeen, eighteen, twenty two, like he's chucking the
• 27:10
  Speaker 4: ball and the same thing can be said about Harden.
• 27:12
  Speaker 4: He hasn't fully got there really for dfs where you
• 27:15
  Speaker 4: want him. But he's usage just still in the high twenties.
• 27:18
  Speaker 4: He's playing upper thirties minutes. He's shooting the ball a
• 27:21
  Speaker 4: little less though twenty three, last game, seventeen fourteen, twenty ten, eighteen.
• 27:25
  Speaker 4: So I do prefer Kauhi in a vacuum, but I
• 27:28
  Speaker 4: think the field will as well. Let's see what we
• 27:30
  Speaker 4: have it. Oh, we have it pretty much equal. I
• 27:33
  Speaker 4: still think people will go a little more to the
• 27:35
  Speaker 4: Kuhi side after what they saw last game. But I
• 27:39
  Speaker 4: think they're both super strong because outside of it's really
• 27:43
  Speaker 4: just those two hands in the ball almost every time.
• 27:45
  Speaker 4: And then like Brook Lopez, he's just getting dunks or
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: chucking threes, and these guys are getting assists. Chris duns
• 27:51
  Speaker 4: there for his defense and transition, and John Collins is questionable,
• 27:54
  Speaker 4: which is pretty important. I don't think I would play
• 27:57
  Speaker 4: John Collens, but assuming like Keante's in, beads in and
• 28:00
  Speaker 4: no injury news opens up, I think it's worth taking
• 28:03
  Speaker 4: a shot on Batoom at three point nine k again
• 28:06
  Speaker 4: a weak power forward position, and you have that upside
• 28:09
  Speaker 4: if Collins does miss, he will get an uptick in minutes,
• 28:12
  Speaker 4: he'll probably start and again the position is so bad anyway.
• 28:15
  Speaker 4: That's how you can get Luca or Kawhi Harden or
• 28:18
  Speaker 4: something like that. Chris Dunn, I think is fine at
• 28:20
  Speaker 4: four point ak. But I really have nothing more to
• 28:23
  Speaker 4: say than he's a starter that will play solid minutes
• 28:26
  Speaker 4: and he's cheap, relatively cheap. But yeah, hard in It
• 28:29
  Speaker 4: and Choir are so bald dominant. It's those two, and
• 28:31
  Speaker 4: I think they're very strong.
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: Do you think Kawhi goes over under a ninety DraftKings
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: points like he got last time?
• 28:39
  Speaker 3: I will take under for all my money.
• 28:42
  Speaker 4: At minus four thousand, so I don't know how much
• 28:46
  Speaker 4: money I'm getting out of my.
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: Ball or yeah, that's crazy ninety that's like, I don't
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: know if I've seen that in quite some time. I mean,
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: not only had five steels, like eleven boards, I think
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: something crazy like that.
• 28:55
  Speaker 3: He's seen a lot of big ones.
• 28:57
  Speaker 4: Jokich got one oh six on Christmas Day or one
• 29:00
  Speaker 4: o eight or something like that.
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, that fifty five point triple double
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: as well.
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we've seen we've seen some crazy ones.
• 29:06
  Speaker 4: But yeah, Kawhi is I mean Yeah, it's Kawhi Prime
• 29:09
  Speaker 4: felt like it was Toronto like five years ago, and now.
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: He's still dropping ninety ninety. So yeah, I.
• 29:15
  Speaker 4: Mean I remember that against the boxes, fall away in
• 29:18
  Speaker 4: the corner, hits the room multiple times, so good.
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: What about what about Kawhi and Harden together? Is that
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: just is what you do that? Or is that too much?
• 29:29
  Speaker 4: So I'm looking I did initial first of all, let
• 29:32
  Speaker 4: me click Sabersim. This is where like I don't make
• 29:34
  Speaker 4: rules pre flop like Rio does. It's a four game slate,
• 29:37
  Speaker 4: so I don't think I'm gonna say no. Let me
• 29:40
  Speaker 4: see quick what Sabersim has. All right, so they have
• 29:44
  Speaker 4: negative point zero nine correlation with Harden and Kuhi, which
• 29:47
  Speaker 4: isn't great.
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: It's one of the worst.
• 29:49
  Speaker 4: Actually, when I click on Harden, I say that, but
• 29:52
  Speaker 4: then I look at my uh just initial bill I'm running.
• 29:55
  Speaker 4: It's definitely gonna change. And I do have a good
• 29:57
  Speaker 4: amount of Harden and Kawhi teams together. I don't love
• 30:02
  Speaker 4: it though. If I'm handbuilding, I know I'm not doing
• 30:04
  Speaker 4: that because once you do that, you're not going to
• 30:06
  Speaker 4: click Jalen Brown as much, or Pritchard as much, or
• 30:08
  Speaker 4: Derek White or Embiid or Keyante. There's just you're giving
• 30:12
  Speaker 4: up other spends honestly, where I don't love value too much,
• 30:16
  Speaker 4: and Harden just hasn't really got there too much lately
• 30:20
  Speaker 4: because it seems to be at the expensive KWHI.
• 30:22
  Speaker 3: So I'm playing a lot of teams.
• 30:23
  Speaker 4: I'm not gonna make the rule, but I definitely do
• 30:26
  Speaker 4: not love playing those two together handbuilds. There's no chance
• 30:29
  Speaker 4: I'm clicking that Kante.
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: We just got news?
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: Oh do we?
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah? Just a minute? Or no Ki Shwan Kishawn?
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: George, George, what are the Wizards?
• 30:40
  Speaker 3: Aren't even on the slates and know that's for Wednesday,
• 30:42
  Speaker 3: so it's the wrong George. You got me excited that.
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: I was gonna play with Walter Clayton.
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: That's an honest mistake.
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: That's a yeah, yeah, yeah, no, I'll good, all good.
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: What was I gonna say? Oh we had a question
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: in the chat Jalen Brown or why? That's a good
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: that's a good one. What do you think on that?
• 31:03
  Speaker 3: Definitely good.
• 31:04
  Speaker 4: I'll ride with Kawhi just because I think i'd rather
• 31:07
  Speaker 4: play Kawhi is the spend and then I can play
• 31:10
  Speaker 4: Prichard White Simon's I think there's other Celtics that I
• 31:14
  Speaker 4: can play more that way, and I'll just ride the
• 31:16
  Speaker 4: hot street from from Kawhi.
• 31:17
  Speaker 3: But you're asking about two really good players.
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I think you know, knowing Westbrook like
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: I know him, which is not at all, but just
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: knowing his game and his personality, I think he wants
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: to stick it to the Clippers. I think he wants
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: to stick it to you know, James Harden at eight
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: K is a tough price tag to pay, but man,
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: I think if there was a game like that he
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: would get up for. I don't know if he's from LA.
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: I know he went to U C. L A. I
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: think this would be kind of the one that that
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: gets his juices flowing. So I like Russell Westbrook tonight,
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: even though he is way over priced in my opinion,
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: I agree with you there.
• 31:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's just a minute.
• 32:00
  Speaker 4: I mean, if he gets you like twenty six, twenty seven,
• 32:02
  Speaker 4: thirty eight, twenty nine, thirty thirty five, twenty eight, twenty
• 32:06
  Speaker 4: six forty like you just I just I wish I
• 32:09
  Speaker 4: knew more about the minutes, which is the thing because
• 32:12
  Speaker 4: if you miss.
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: At him at ak like you're oh, you're done, then
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: cashing is even hard, but we need.
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: Shrewder out of there and him telling him to stop
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: cussing out Luca.
• 32:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they're just Shrewder DeRozan Monk, like there's Keegan Murray.
• 32:26
  Speaker 3: They like a lot. There's just so many guys.
• 32:28
  Speaker 4: They're deep, like they got enough ball handles, slash scorers,
• 32:31
  Speaker 4: slash shooters like guys that take away from Westbrook a
• 32:36
  Speaker 4: good bit. But I always do prefer Westbrook on FanDuel.
• 32:39
  Speaker 4: Let me check. Yeah, he's ak over there. I think
• 32:41
  Speaker 4: I'm more likely to play him on FanDuel just because
• 32:44
  Speaker 4: of that.
• 32:44
  Speaker 3: The stock up side. Yeah, that way.
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: But I saw you put in the chat the top
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: three Celtics would be Pritchard, White, and Brown according for title.
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: And then someone asked, what let's let's do two other
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: centers real quick. What about Brolo coming off? I guess
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: it was two or three games ago where he was
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: just lights out. Any love for for brock tonight.
• 33:06
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, Brooke, I missed that. Yeah, yeah, I should have.
• 33:10
  Speaker 4: I should have mentioned that because thirty five, thirty three,
• 33:14
  Speaker 4: twenty seven, twenty four minutes he's definitely involved, and I
• 33:18
  Speaker 4: think they're gonna need a size against rein ed against
• 33:21
  Speaker 4: U Banks precious like he's not going to get ran
• 33:25
  Speaker 4: off the court.
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 33:26
  Speaker 4: No, I think Brooke actually probably my favorite center on
• 33:31
  Speaker 4: the slate, more than Kada or an Urkis you get
• 33:33
  Speaker 4: a little price discount. I think Kada is going to
• 33:35
  Speaker 4: be higher owned. I do think Brooks. I think brook
• 33:38
  Speaker 4: is strong. I like brook and.
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: Then and then the last one. Uh we didn't touch
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: on him. So I don't think either want us have
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: any interest. But Duran for the Pistons at the center position,
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: I believe he is seven k yeah, seven five. Any
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: love for Jalen Duran against this uh DeAndre Ayton led
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: Lakers team.
• 34:04
  Speaker 4: I don't hate it. I don't love it. If I'm
• 34:06
  Speaker 4: spending up, I think I want empeied. Otherwise, I think
• 34:09
  Speaker 4: I kind of want to get out of center pretty
• 34:11
  Speaker 4: cheap because I think there's a lot of good spend
• 34:13
  Speaker 4: up guards to the Kauwhi's of the world. So not
• 34:16
  Speaker 4: on my radar much. But yeah, thirty one minutes, I
• 34:20
  Speaker 4: mean he had forty one. I mean he's always a
• 34:21
  Speaker 4: great point per minute guy. It's just how many minutes
• 34:23
  Speaker 4: is he getting Detroit healthy?
• 34:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah? Indifferent?
• 34:30
  Speaker 4: Again, this is something I wish I could rely on Rio,
• 34:32
  Speaker 4: and I do believe Rio is doing the Slave Plan today,
• 34:35
  Speaker 4: so make sure to check that out. If you are
• 34:37
  Speaker 4: a member, I would always defer to him.
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, excellent segue there. Yeah, if you are a member,
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: head on over there. You will get the slate plan
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: to night. But if you're not a member, now is
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: the best time to get in. You can get in
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: five days for nineteen dollars, just into the coach ship nineteen.
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: You see it there at the top of the screen.
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: We'd love to have, yet we've had a lot of
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: people try the one day trial. The week trial is
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: probably the best deal in the business. Today. You're gonna
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: get NFL through the rest of the regular season, which
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: ends on Sunday night with no Monday night football. So yeah,
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: a lot of great stuff happening over here at the Nation,
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: all right. Title I do it every time with Rio,
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: I'll put him on the spot. I'm gonna go because
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: I would say Westbrook I would cheat. So let's go
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: seventy nine hundred m below. Who is the top producing
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: performer tonight.
• 35:24
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you definitely put me on the spot, all right,
• 35:27
  Speaker 4: And I don't want to say someone like Mega Mega chalk.
• 35:32
  Speaker 4: I'm debating between two guys. Just given me one. I'm
• 35:36
  Speaker 4: gonna go brook Lopez. I'm gonna go bro Low. I
• 35:40
  Speaker 4: think Center's week. I want to mainly spend down and
• 35:43
  Speaker 4: if I'm getting thirty one thirty two minutes, which I
• 35:45
  Speaker 4: think he does get today, I think brook Lopez is
• 35:48
  Speaker 4: on the Winner.
• 35:49
  Speaker 3: So that's what I got.
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: Brook Lopez on the Winner. I'm gonna go. I'm gonna cheat.
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna hedge my bets. I'm gonna go Pritchard and Brown.
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: I think one of them hit ten three tonight. If
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: I had a guess, I'm gonna go. I guess I'll
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: go Derek White. Derek White, I like them both, but
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: I think the Celtics score one forty tonight, and I
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: think you're gonna have two of them on the Winner,
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: especially on a four game slate. That'll do it for us.
