- 0:00Speaker 1: Yah, all system's gone clear.
- 0:11Speaker 2: Lift what is going on? Ship a nation YouTube station.
- 0:43Speaker 2: We are back with another edition of the NBA Show.
- 0:46Speaker 2: It's your boy Ham, It's your boy Matt. Who's Matt?
- 0:49Speaker 2: They were saying on Tuesday, Matt, But you're here. It's Friday.
- 0:53Speaker 2: It's day two of March Madness. That was a little disappointed.
- 0:55Speaker 2: I was Rio, who is gonna win? He didn't even
- 0:57Speaker 2: he didn't even pick a team. Surely I know you
- 1:00Speaker 2: a team, but I bet I bet on my hometown
- 1:03Speaker 2: Tennessee State Tigers. They're only down twenty six with like
- 1:06Speaker 2: free to go. That's an l I'm gonna eat. And
- 1:09Speaker 2: so before I officially pass it over to you, who
- 1:12Speaker 2: you got cutting the nets down this year?
- 1:18Speaker 3: For I definitely have a pick. And I wasn't shocked
- 1:21Speaker 3: at that Rio didn't. It wasn't a college hoops head,
- 1:24Speaker 3: like I feel like less people are now than used
- 1:26Speaker 3: to be. Another buddy of mine, who's a big sports
- 1:29Speaker 3: fan wasn't doesn't like college basketball either, So yeah, I
- 1:34Speaker 3: certainly enjoy it. For a lot of the year, I
- 1:36Speaker 3: had Michigan as the best team, like pretty clearly, But
- 1:42Speaker 3: towards the end of the season, my stands changed, and
- 1:44Speaker 3: I think Michigan's really good. I think they're right below Florida,
- 1:47Speaker 3: who I think is the best team who I have
- 1:48Speaker 3: winning at all. I have a Michigan Florida title game,
- 1:51Speaker 3: and I think Florida is gonna win.
- 1:55Speaker 2: Florida would be back to back just like they did
- 1:58Speaker 2: in Uh when was that? When ever a Corey Brewer
- 2:01Speaker 2: and how Horford and all those.
- 2:02Speaker 3: They beat Ohio State that time.
- 2:04Speaker 2: So was there in Atlanta? Yeah, Orgredom, I was there,
- 2:08Speaker 2: Greg Odin, Mike Conley, Yeah, yep, I remember that now
- 2:12Speaker 2: now that you say that, that's the only national champions
- 2:14Speaker 2: came ever been to. You know who I've got that
- 2:16Speaker 2: got your boy, Rick Patino, Sticky Rick and the Saint
- 2:20Speaker 2: John's and.
- 2:20Speaker 3: I love Saint John's. This year, I got them going
- 2:22Speaker 3: to the final four like in the one bracket I did.
- 2:25Speaker 2: And I needed Sienna. I needed Sienna last night to
- 2:28Speaker 2: pull the upset on the dude. Yeah cracket. Uh yeah.
- 2:31Speaker 2: I like Rick Patino reminds me of ninety six when
- 2:34Speaker 2: he had Ron Mercer. For all those folks out there
- 2:36Speaker 2: that remember Ron Mercer, Tony Delk, Derek Anderson, Walter McCarty,
- 2:42Speaker 2: Mark Pope Kentucky coach. Now, they were fun to watch
- 2:44Speaker 2: back then when one.
- 2:45Speaker 3: Night legend Derek Anderson.
- 2:47Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, that Derek Anderson was a bad man, but yeah,
- 2:51Speaker 2: that's good stuff. Then they in Kentucky had a heck
- 2:53Speaker 2: of a game today. But this is an NBA show.
- 2:55Speaker 2: We're gonna get right into it. We got our guy
- 2:58Speaker 2: Michael in the house. Rodney Mighty wins a lot Para
- 3:02Speaker 2: Bay Tank Marquee, our guy Jordan, Ricky Britney's in here,
- 3:07Speaker 2: Luis is in here, rig Jordan again, Jake's in here
- 3:10Speaker 2: as always. Hold On is new and saying I'm too old.
- 3:14Speaker 2: I can't read the fast enough. He's probably saying them too.
- 3:17Speaker 2: He's probably saying I'm too old in the chat. We
- 3:19Speaker 2: certainly appreciate hit that like hit that subscribe buttons. It
- 3:23Speaker 2: helps us out a tone over here. We got five
- 3:25Speaker 2: games tonight in the NBA. One thing to note, I'll
- 3:29Speaker 2: call it a thirty minute late start if you will.
- 3:31Speaker 2: First game is gonna tip at seven thirty. They do
- 3:34Speaker 2: that from time to time, but it is a seven
- 3:36Speaker 2: to thirty pm tip. It is only five games. It
- 3:39Speaker 2: is I'll call it the back half, maybe even the
- 3:42Speaker 2: back third of the NBA season. Matt, we were talking
- 3:45Speaker 2: about a little bit of pre show, just the just
- 3:47Speaker 2: the shit balls you have to roster this day and age,
- 3:49Speaker 2: with all these injuries. Jannis, you know, want to be
- 3:53Speaker 2: shut down. He doesn't want to be it. But any
- 3:56Speaker 2: any opening remarks before we get going, Not really.
- 4:00Speaker 3: I mean, I feel like everyone who's watching this show
- 4:04Speaker 3: knows what it is. At this point in the NBA season.
- 4:06Speaker 3: It's a grind. Certainly, guys out teams tanking, so you
- 4:14Speaker 3: know what you're signing up for on a night to
- 4:15Speaker 3: night basis, there's still money to be made and edges
- 4:18Speaker 3: to be had. Price on that note, though, prize schoolers
- 4:21Speaker 3: are small though probably well definitely because of March Madness
- 4:24Speaker 3: and also the Fantasy Basketball World Championship this weekend. But
- 4:29Speaker 3: don't love seeing it on a Friday night, Yeah, contest,
- 4:32Speaker 3: do not like it?
- 4:33Speaker 2: Yeah? And my guy, how do you not know who
- 4:35Speaker 2: Ron Mercer is? Agent eight? Antoine Walker?
- 4:38Speaker 3: Surely you've heard of answers man. Antoine Walker one of
- 4:42Speaker 3: my top five favorite NBA players growing up as a kid.
- 4:48Speaker 3: Top three. I had, like, you know, figurines and stuff
- 4:52Speaker 3: of different athletes, and he was one I had a
- 4:55Speaker 3: bunch of I just loved him.
- 4:57Speaker 2: Agent eight made a hundred million dollars in his NBA
- 4:59Speaker 2: career and has no money to show for it. So
- 5:02Speaker 2: from the Celtics. But man, what else was I gonna say? Oh,
- 5:06Speaker 2: he's heard of Antoine Walker. That's good. What I was
- 5:12Speaker 2: gonna say, Let's get right into it. Five games? What
- 5:17Speaker 2: was I gonna say? It's gonna bug me? But we
- 5:19Speaker 2: got the Knicks, We got the Nets in this contest.
- 5:22Speaker 2: You see it there, seventeen and a half point spread
- 5:26Speaker 2: in this one. No Michael Porter Junior, No Josh Hart, No,
- 5:30Speaker 2: no a Clowney, you got a questionable cat Karl Anthony Towns.
- 5:36Speaker 2: Jose Alvarado was bawling in the nine his start with
- 5:38Speaker 2: no Jalen Brunton. But talk to me a little bit
- 5:40Speaker 2: about this game. You got the Knicks taking on the
- 5:44Speaker 2: Brooklyn Nets.
- 5:46Speaker 3: Yeah, so I think we can just Brooklyn is not
- 5:50Speaker 3: a team I'm gonna be interested and interested in at all.
- 5:53Speaker 3: Here really just other really good spots on this slate.
- 5:56Speaker 3: I'm not gonna waste roster spots on Brooklyn for me.
- 6:00Speaker 3: They're not a team I'm getting to from the Knick side,
- 6:03Speaker 3: I expect Towns to be out midday down grade personal reason,
- 6:06Speaker 3: so Mitchell Robinson would be coming like an insta play
- 6:09Speaker 3: for me. Forty three hundred should smash in this spot.
- 6:16Speaker 3: You know we'll start way too cheap for his role
- 6:20Speaker 3: if Towns is out. So he's a guy, I think
- 6:22Speaker 3: you just play and move on. Landry Schamet, I'm way
- 6:27Speaker 3: less excited about he's cheap.
- 6:29Speaker 2: But.
- 6:31Speaker 3: I don't know. I hate playing him into ownership. He stinks,
- 6:35Speaker 3: like I get it, thirty six hundred Good Spot should
- 6:40Speaker 3: play a bunch of minutes, but he's just never a
- 6:43Speaker 3: guy I want to play. So I think he's gonna
- 6:45Speaker 3: be a guy like Optimier's feed. But man, I don't
- 6:49Speaker 3: know if I want to waste the roster spot on
- 6:51Speaker 3: him though, because I feel like you need really good
- 6:53Speaker 3: scores from every position. I'm obviously talking this out as
- 6:56Speaker 3: we do the show, so he stands out as a
- 6:59Speaker 3: good value play will likely start thirty six hundred Good Spot.
- 7:04Speaker 3: I get it, just far far from excited about it.
- 7:09Speaker 2: Yeah, after that, I was just you know, just quick,
- 7:14Speaker 2: uh quick game game log watching. He hasn't gotten above
- 7:18Speaker 2: twenty in about a month and a half, Not to
- 7:21Speaker 2: say he probably hasn't started many games in there, but yeah,
- 7:24Speaker 2: I like you said, he's thirty six hundred, started a few. Huh,
- 7:30Speaker 2: he started a few.
- 7:31Speaker 3: Sorry to interrupt you, No, no.
- 7:33Speaker 2: No, you're good. But yeah, he's a tough click, especially
- 7:35Speaker 2: when you got Mitrob there, who started last Friday night
- 7:38Speaker 2: and I think had like a double double with like
- 7:40Speaker 2: twenty plus rebounds.
- 7:44Speaker 3: I think Mitch Trob is in play even if Towns
- 7:46Speaker 3: is in here. Okay, he smashed, He's gonna smash this spot.
- 7:50Speaker 3: He's cheap, I mean yeah.
- 7:54Speaker 2: I mean new it's puts a Yeah, I mean can
- 7:56Speaker 2: can sham it gets you twenty five to thirty. I
- 7:58Speaker 2: would agree with new and but you don't get every day.
- 8:01Speaker 2: But man, I don't like Shaman. So I'm with you there.
- 8:05Speaker 2: I think I actually cut you off, so my back
- 8:06Speaker 2: keep going.
- 8:08Speaker 3: No, you're good, and I think you need that. Like
- 8:10Speaker 3: even though he's gonna project, like twenty is a good
- 8:13Speaker 3: score at his price point, Like, I think you need
- 8:15Speaker 3: more than that, so talking it out, he's not a guy.
- 8:18Speaker 3: I really want to play Mitch Robb, especially if Towns
- 8:21Speaker 3: is out, and I expect Towns to be definitely interested
- 8:24Speaker 3: in I think like if Towns is out, Yeah, Towns
- 8:28Speaker 3: is out, just locking him in and moving on. I
- 8:31Speaker 3: think guys like og Michal bridges Man talk about stinks
- 8:39Speaker 3: like man, he just I don't know.
- 8:41Speaker 2: I don't know who's that guy you always like to play.
- 8:43Speaker 2: Not not Will Riley. I know that's a that's a
- 8:45Speaker 2: Rio guy who's smashed the other night out.
- 8:48Speaker 3: Yeah, my guy you're probably thinking of is Isaiah Kyllier.
- 8:52Speaker 2: No, I forget who it was. There was somebody that
- 8:55Speaker 2: you were loving, but might have been Isaiah Collyer. I
- 8:58Speaker 2: don't know, but I think he's smashed.
- 9:01Speaker 3: No, I know who you're talking about, but I can't
- 9:03Speaker 3: remember it was not you were crazy last week though,
- 9:07Speaker 3: I watched one of your shows where you had god
- 9:11Speaker 3: someone over Jose Alvarado.
- 9:13Speaker 2: Oh it was terrible.
- 9:14Speaker 3: No, that was.
- 9:17Speaker 2: I got smashed in that. Oh it was Mitchell aj Mitchell.
- 9:21Speaker 3: Yes, who was actually pretty decent. But Alvarado was amazing
- 9:25Speaker 3: at halftime. So yeah, I looked it up.
- 9:28Speaker 2: Halfway through the second quarter, he had like twelve four
- 9:31Speaker 2: and seven or something.
- 9:34Speaker 3: He had had thirty some Fantasy points at halftime. I
- 9:36Speaker 3: mean in a blowout type. He's kind of interesting with
- 9:40Speaker 3: heart out. I mean he's forty five hundred now though,
- 9:42Speaker 3: and Brunts it in so hard to get there. Guys
- 9:46Speaker 3: like og And I mentioned Bridges more og I think
- 9:50Speaker 3: I think they are in playing tournaments. Like with Towns out,
- 9:52Speaker 3: I think you're going to see their projections and ownership rise,
- 9:55Speaker 3: especially Annonobi probably Bridges also only forty seven hundred here
- 10:01Speaker 3: for Bridges, Yeah, I mean you got heart and Town's
- 10:05Speaker 3: out in a really good spot. I think we're gonna
- 10:07Speaker 3: want exposure to the Knicks. I'm probably downplaying both og
- 10:10Speaker 3: And and Bridges honestly because with kat out, you're gonna
- 10:14Speaker 3: see ownership rise for both those guys, clearly Mick, Trob
- 10:17Speaker 3: and Brunson. So New York is gonna be a mainstay
- 10:22Speaker 3: on this slate. Now, there are other good spots. Minnesota
- 10:27Speaker 3: missing missing ants still and their prices have been raised
- 10:31Speaker 3: but not high enough so they look really good. Detroit
- 10:34Speaker 3: missing Cad and maybe Durhan. So it's not like you
- 10:39Speaker 3: have to load up on the Knicks. But we've seen
- 10:43Speaker 3: it a few times where the Knicks and a couple
- 10:46Speaker 3: guys out and they end up having like three four
- 10:48Speaker 3: other guys optimal because they run a pretty short rotation
- 10:53Speaker 3: and you know who's who's gonna get there. So I
- 10:57Speaker 3: like the next year, especially if Towns is out. I
- 10:59Speaker 3: mean if Tounses out, I think they look like one
- 11:01Speaker 3: of the best teams on the slate.
- 11:05Speaker 2: Yeah, excellent stuff there and nothing Definitely no Nets. I mean,
- 11:09Speaker 2: I mean, I know you said no, but just want
- 11:11Speaker 2: to reconfirm him. They're missing several of their key guys.
- 11:14Speaker 2: If you will Clowney and MPJ, I can't do it.
- 11:17Speaker 2: Doesn't sound like you can't either.
- 11:20Speaker 3: No, I see like Zaire Williams projecting. Okay, small forward man,
- 11:26Speaker 3: sure going to get it, but I do it.
- 11:28Speaker 2: Nah, yeah, they're gonna get blown out. Let's move on
- 11:32Speaker 2: to the next game. Uh, Bridges is fifty seven. I
- 11:35Speaker 2: think you might have said forty seven or I heard
- 11:37Speaker 2: you incorrectly, but fifty seven for Bridges is Yeah, he does,
- 11:42Speaker 2: he does sting. Next up on the slate is the Warriors.
- 11:45Speaker 2: Still no stuff, Still no Cade cutting him and I
- 11:49Speaker 2: hated to see that news the other day. I don't
- 11:51Speaker 2: did he get hit or I don't know what happened
- 11:53Speaker 2: to him, but Caid's going to be out for quite
- 11:56Speaker 2: some time. No stuff, you said, durn is questionable. I
- 11:59Speaker 2: think he cut up last night against Washington. No Moses Moody,
- 12:02Speaker 2: no Al Horford. But yeah, talk to me a little
- 12:04Speaker 2: bit about this game. You got Golden State at Detroit.
- 12:07Speaker 2: I'm gonna walk away for about five seconds, Matt. I'll
- 12:09Speaker 2: be right back, but go ahead.
- 12:11Speaker 3: Yeah, So big question marks on the Detroit side. We
- 12:14Speaker 3: know Kate is out, obviously, but Duran questionable here back
- 12:18Speaker 3: to back coming off a win against Washington last night.
- 12:24Speaker 3: If Durran's in, I mean, he looks good here with
- 12:27Speaker 3: Kate out, he's too cheap, he takes how much more
- 12:29Speaker 3: of an offensive role? I mean, he just looks good
- 12:33Speaker 3: at this spot. It's not the Wizard spot, but he's
- 12:36Speaker 3: still gonna be wildly in play eighty seven hundred. I
- 12:38Speaker 3: like durn here. Not nearly the priority he's been on
- 12:41Speaker 3: the last two slates against Washington on how those slates
- 12:45Speaker 3: have broken down, But he looks good. Dannis Jenkins big
- 12:50Speaker 3: letdown last night. He was five. What'd you say?
- 12:56Speaker 2: I played Some Marcus SATs are talking about disappointing.
- 13:00Speaker 3: He wasn't good either, but Jenkins was was a big letdown.
- 13:03Speaker 3: He shot he he had, He took sixteen shots though
- 13:05Speaker 3: so again Kade out. Yeah, very encouraging. He was shot
- 13:10Speaker 3: three or sixteen, which stinks. But I mean any guy
- 13:14Speaker 3: and like Duran questionable too. If durn happens to be out,
- 13:16Speaker 3: I like him more. But even with Durnan, I think
- 13:19Speaker 3: you go right back to Jenkins. He's getting a lot
- 13:21Speaker 3: of ownership, which gives me some pause. But I think
- 13:24Speaker 3: like from a projection standpoint, he looks like the best
- 13:28Speaker 3: points per dollar play on the slate at least as
- 13:29Speaker 3: of right now, or one of the top, even if
- 13:32Speaker 3: not the very best. So yeah, durn and Jenkins. If
- 13:36Speaker 3: you get durn out, you know, Paul Reid starting at
- 13:42Speaker 3: center here, uh, because Isaiah Stuart's not Like if if
- 13:47Speaker 3: Duran's out, I think, man, you get Read and mit Trob.
- 13:51Speaker 3: Would you get Reid and mit Trob?
- 13:54Speaker 2: Yeah? I mean it Towns is out and Duran is out. Yeah,
- 14:00Speaker 2: that's a no brainer, is it not?
- 14:03Speaker 3: Yeah? It is. But it takes away guys like alprim Sangoon,
- 14:07Speaker 3: who's projected to get some love, Rudy Gobert, who's been
- 14:10Speaker 3: amazing with ant out recently.
- 14:14Speaker 2: That every day Rudy Gobert has been amazing.
- 14:17Speaker 3: He has been from a fantas. I know, I know
- 14:19Speaker 3: he has I'm not I rarely play him, and again
- 14:24Speaker 3: I probably won't tonight because of the other options. But
- 14:26Speaker 3: he's in play for sure.
- 14:28Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean think about it. You could jim
- 14:32Speaker 2: basically anybody you want if you if you have your
- 14:34Speaker 2: center center position, got what forty three and forty two hundred?
- 14:37Speaker 2: You got two dudes that are gonna get thirty plus.
- 14:42Speaker 2: I mean, are you missing? Are you really missing?
- 14:45Speaker 3: And I think both of them have upside for way more.
- 14:48Speaker 3: Is why I just play them to that point, Like
- 14:50Speaker 3: I was kind of just try and find a way
- 14:51Speaker 3: not to play them, but I think he just played
- 14:53Speaker 3: them both. If Duran and Town's are.
- 14:54Speaker 2: Out, yeah, go ahead. I was just looking that we
- 15:03Speaker 2: we have former Tennessee great Chas Lanier in there scheduled
- 15:09Speaker 2: to play ten minutes, which I just he hasn't played
- 15:11Speaker 2: much this year he's been in the league. Huh. I'm good, Yeah, no, no, no,
- 15:15Speaker 2: I'm good. Yeah, I'm not saying playing. He just went
- 15:17Speaker 2: to Tennessee. So I just I haven't said his name
- 15:19Speaker 2: in there all year. I felt like, so the.
- 15:21Speaker 3: Guy that would become in play is Mississippi state legend
- 15:24Speaker 3: Tolu Smith, who turn is out? Tolu He was really
- 15:29Speaker 3: good in a spot like this earlier in the year.
- 15:32Speaker 3: Someone mentioned him in the Discord way earlier on in
- 15:35Speaker 3: the year he smashed. So, yeah, man, if you get turnout,
- 15:40Speaker 3: because I say, is Her Stewart is out, so then
- 15:42Speaker 3: it's reed and and Tolu limits.
- 15:48Speaker 2: They don't play Tolu Smith.
- 15:50Speaker 3: No, you can't say that. You don't even know who
- 15:52Speaker 3: it is. So how are you gonna say that? That's
- 15:56Speaker 3: what I mean?
- 15:56Speaker 2: Why not does play Paul Reid for twelve hundred more?
- 15:59Speaker 3: You you do play Paul Reid for twelve hundred more.
- 16:01Speaker 3: But if you're playing one fifty, you know, spots like
- 16:04Speaker 3: that are a way to get different, where like he's
- 16:08Speaker 3: in the same exact spot as Paul Reid. What happens
- 16:10Speaker 3: when Red gets in the instant file of trouble or
- 16:13Speaker 3: the game blows out. I'm with you. If you're playing
- 16:15Speaker 3: one lineup, three lineups, five lineups, ten lineups, you just
- 16:18Speaker 3: play Paul Reid. If you're playing like one P fifty, though,
- 16:22Speaker 3: you got to get different in some of those lineups.
- 16:24Speaker 3: And I think he's a good guy to get different
- 16:25Speaker 3: with there.
- 16:26Speaker 2: All right, Hey, listen, I'll take your advice. So if
- 16:30Speaker 2: you're playing one fifty Toelu Smith and this guy Jack's
- 16:34Speaker 2: not a fan, Jack saying played Tolu. He's playing Tolu.
- 16:38Speaker 2: Never heard of Tolu three K. But hey, listen to Mat.
- 16:40Speaker 2: I just said that he's got the answers for a
- 16:42Speaker 2: buck fifty. I'm not playing Tolu smith Man, I'll tell you.
- 16:45Speaker 2: I'll tell you that right now.
- 16:46Speaker 3: So that's just me.
- 16:48Speaker 2: What about on the Warriors side, we haven't mentioned any
- 16:50Speaker 2: of those guys.
- 16:51Speaker 3: You're definitely like making you want to play a little
- 16:53Speaker 3: bit of Tolu tonight, so I can just rub it
- 16:56Speaker 3: in and he nukes.
- 16:57Speaker 2: So he's get Like he's a guy that that picks
- 17:02Speaker 2: up fantasy stats quickly.
- 17:04Speaker 3: Like he's productive, he's a typical productive yeah, bro, Like yes,
- 17:11Speaker 3: like yes, he's just a prototypical big man. He's not
- 17:14Speaker 3: like some special dude. But like he was good in
- 17:19Speaker 3: college and productive in college, and he's been productive when
- 17:22Speaker 3: given the opportunity and in the pro level. But that's
- 17:26Speaker 3: not a hero there. Moving on Golden State, not really.
- 17:32Speaker 3: I don't think there's much here.
- 17:34Speaker 2: Uh.
- 17:36Speaker 3: Just the problem is with with Golden State there's just
- 17:39Speaker 3: so many good spots to that. Gary Payton playing good ball,
- 17:44Speaker 3: the always coveted shooting guard and small forward eligibility. He's
- 17:49Speaker 3: getting up there in price tone. He just never plays
- 17:51Speaker 3: a ton of minutes. So I don't love it, but
- 17:55Speaker 3: I don't hate it. Gary Payton would be my favorite
- 17:57Speaker 3: piece of Golden State. Draymond going back to Michigan, going
- 18:03Speaker 3: back to Detroit.
- 18:04Speaker 2: Coming for Draymond, you know he wants.
- 18:06Speaker 3: To Yeah, yeah, I mean been there, done that though,
- 18:10Speaker 3: Like you know, I don't think this is anything special
- 18:13Speaker 3: for him going back to Michigan to night. But always
- 18:16Speaker 3: get a little pep in your stet when you're going
- 18:17Speaker 3: back to your old stopping grounds for sure. So his
- 18:21Speaker 3: price right, Like, he's not a bad play with as
- 18:25Speaker 3: like at his fifty five hundred dollars price tags. If
- 18:27Speaker 3: you want to give him a boost because of that,
- 18:29Speaker 3: do your thing. I probably won't play him, but that's
- 18:31Speaker 3: just me. Yeah, it's mainly Detroit for me here, and
- 18:35Speaker 3: even other guys from Detroit, Like if you get during out,
- 18:37Speaker 3: Asar Thompson, Tobias Harris, like those guys start to be
- 18:40Speaker 3: come and play Detroit looks like the Knicks here.
- 18:45Speaker 2: Yeah, didn't pod Zimski go to Santa Clair Ormont thinking
- 18:49Speaker 2: of somebody else?
- 18:52Speaker 3: Yeah, pretty sure, Yeah he did.
- 18:56Speaker 2: Yeah, this is my boy saying, this is my thing
- 18:57Speaker 2: with Totler Smith. Greg Odin must product him in college.
- 19:02Speaker 3: Would do with anything if you If Gregorder was three
- 19:05Speaker 3: K on a slate in the NBA, I would play
- 19:07Speaker 3: his ass too. What's your point? I would play him
- 19:11Speaker 3: right now. I would play him right now at three K.
- 19:15Speaker 3: So what's the point, Gregorden boss? Productive? What's I don't
- 19:20Speaker 3: even understand what the point is.
- 19:22Speaker 2: As you said, you said, Toyler Smith is productive in common.
- 19:25Speaker 3: Yeah, he's three K.
- 19:28Speaker 2: Because he's three K. I get that.
- 19:30Speaker 3: I will I go that, and that's.
- 19:31Speaker 2: All it is. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah I can. I
- 19:35Speaker 2: can get on board with that. It's just a tough click.
- 19:39Speaker 2: Oh man, this is funny. Matt Sharp, I agree. Matt's
- 19:42Speaker 2: the man. That's why he's here. It's why he's teaching me,
- 19:44Speaker 2: teaching me how to do it. Tot Louise Smith, He's
- 19:46Speaker 2: gonna wind mill it in on my ass about nine
- 19:48Speaker 2: thirty central once he ships one hundred K. If there's
- 19:51Speaker 2: even one hundred k, I don't even think there is
- 19:52Speaker 2: one hundred k in there tonight. But oh that's some
- 19:55Speaker 2: good stuff. No Podzemski for you, former Santa Clara Great,
- 19:59Speaker 2: I think he went there. Jordan's saying, I'm in front
- 20:01Speaker 2: of the internet right now. I could look all this
- 20:03Speaker 2: stuff up. But we're gonna move to the next game.
- 20:06Speaker 2: We got the Hawks, Hawks looking good taking on Houston
- 20:13Speaker 2: and who came off? Was it back to back losses
- 20:16Speaker 2: to the Lakers? Did they lose back to back to
- 20:18Speaker 2: the Lakers? Another loss? Yeah? Did back to back to Lakers?
- 20:21Speaker 2: What about? What about your boy? What about your boy?
- 20:25Speaker 2: Forty one year old Lebron James the King going for
- 20:28Speaker 2: a triple double on the second night of a back
- 20:30Speaker 2: to back. That's pretty oppressive. And some guy put up
- 20:34Speaker 2: sixty points as well. That was That was pretty cool
- 20:36Speaker 2: to see.
- 20:36Speaker 3: But I've always talked real quick, I gotta just I've
- 20:39Speaker 3: always talked about Lebron as a rare beast in many ways,
- 20:42Speaker 3: but in one way specific. He has always been amazing
- 20:49Speaker 3: on the second half of back to backs, like as good,
- 20:53Speaker 3: if not better, on the second half of back to
- 20:55Speaker 3: backs than the first half. If you check his numbers,
- 20:57Speaker 3: which is just insane. Just add it. Throw that in.
- 21:01Speaker 2: Yeah, what about what about Portzing? God, Jose wants to
- 21:04Speaker 2: know we didn't we didn't touch on some assuming you're
- 21:07Speaker 2: staying away.
- 21:09Speaker 3: Yeah, actually he's getting love. He obviously had that monster
- 21:14Speaker 3: in against Washington. Everybody all of a sudden, this the
- 21:18Speaker 3: spockets easier without Duran, Like he's getting ownership. So I
- 21:21Speaker 3: don't I don't hate it. I think there's better plays
- 21:25Speaker 3: on the slate, But I don't think he's like a
- 21:27Speaker 3: bad play, is how I put it. Yeah, I kind
- 21:30Speaker 3: of dismissed him, Him and him and Peyton, I guess
- 21:33Speaker 3: would be the two top plays from like a projection
- 21:35Speaker 3: standpoint at Golden State.
- 21:36Speaker 2: Would you say there's better plays at center than Chris
- 21:39Speaker 2: stops Porzingis? Are you referring to tolus Man?
- 21:44Speaker 3: Well, first off, he's a power forward. He's a power forward.
- 21:48Speaker 3: I can't believe we're still on that.
- 21:50Speaker 2: Like, man, listen, I get it. I'm just giving your
- 21:55Speaker 2: hard Timmy's three kids.
- 21:57Speaker 3: Especially, here's the thing. You're gonna mention Jazz Lanier and
- 22:01Speaker 3: they give me about to Smith. I mean that's just wrong,
- 22:06Speaker 3: just wrong.
- 22:08Speaker 2: Oh man, I was missing Jazz because he was on
- 22:10Speaker 2: the sheet good stuff. But this is going off the rails.
- 22:16Speaker 2: But Hawks at the Rockets, I don't even know where
- 22:18Speaker 2: we are. Take this one away, Matt. The Hawk's been
- 22:21Speaker 2: looking good, real good. C J. McCollum has been pretty
- 22:24Speaker 2: pretty much balling. But talk to me about this one.
- 22:27Speaker 2: Hawks at the Rockets.
- 22:30Speaker 3: Yeah, so the bottom of the East, Like the playing
- 22:32Speaker 3: teams look good right now, they're scary. Charlotte, Atlanta, Atlanta
- 22:37Speaker 3: playing good ball right now. I like this game. From
- 22:41Speaker 3: a DFS perspective, I think Houston has more in play
- 22:47Speaker 3: than Atlanta because it's just always hard to pick on Houston.
- 22:52Speaker 3: They play slow, they're good defensively, so it's a better
- 22:57Speaker 3: spot for Houston than it is for Atlanta. Atlanta. Jalen
- 23:01Speaker 3: Johnson always in play, I mean, upside for days in
- 23:04Speaker 3: any spot, but this isn't like a Don Paper nuke
- 23:09Speaker 3: spot for him. So like, I'm not sure I want
- 23:12Speaker 3: to get there. From a salary perspective from Houston, though,
- 23:16Speaker 3: Amen Thompson, Shanng Gooon KD probably in that order. Shangoon
- 23:22Speaker 3: might be really tough to get to though, because of
- 23:24Speaker 3: the center situation we talked about. So I think Aman
- 23:26Speaker 3: Thompson looks like a really good play all in all,
- 23:31Speaker 3: I don't think you have to roster anything from this game.
- 23:34Speaker 3: But I also can make a case to rostering a
- 23:36Speaker 3: bunch from this game, like rostering a couple Houston pieces
- 23:40Speaker 3: Jalen Johnson or Dyson Daniels, CJ. McCollum. Like, if you
- 23:46Speaker 3: don't want to get up to Jalen Johnson, I get that, Yeah,
- 23:51Speaker 3: you could, Like on paper, I think there's more fringe
- 23:54Speaker 3: places than anything in this game. But sometimes those plays
- 23:57Speaker 3: are the best players on the slate and they're not
- 23:58Speaker 3: going to get owned. So I wouldn't take I wouldn't
- 24:02Speaker 3: hate taking a stance on this game either way, kind
- 24:05Speaker 3: of leaning into it hard or just getting away from it.
- 24:09Speaker 2: Gang Green says Tarry Easton is too cheap. I know,
- 24:13Speaker 2: me and you have had this discussion. I'm pro Colin Bower.
- 24:17Speaker 2: You want to let the people know what you are.
- 24:21Speaker 3: Who. I'm not sure who who? Or what who?
- 24:28Speaker 2: What's on the screen.
- 24:30Speaker 3: Oh sorry, uh oh yeah, I mean that's tough. I mean.
- 24:39Speaker 2: You got to roll your net.
- 24:46Speaker 3: So anyways, yeah, Eason is really cheap, but uh he's
- 24:50Speaker 3: just not been great. I don't man, it's just about
- 24:53Speaker 3: using a roster spot on Ethan. Yeah, man I. As
- 24:58Speaker 3: far as the goat comers goes, those two are the
- 25:01Speaker 3: top two.
- 25:03Speaker 2: I don't know, Man, Lebron's impressive. Hey, listen, I grew up.
- 25:08Speaker 3: Like with MJ, like going to games where like when
- 25:12Speaker 3: the Bulls were in town, it was like a something
- 25:15Speaker 3: you never seen before, Like going to games where MJ
- 25:18Speaker 3: played like when I was growing up, and he changed
- 25:22Speaker 3: the game in ways that you know no other player
- 25:25Speaker 3: ever could. I'm obviously a huge Lebron guy. He grew
- 25:30Speaker 3: up around me, same age as me, so saw him
- 25:33Speaker 3: playing high school. Those guys are the one too. I
- 25:37Speaker 3: don't fall anyone that has MJ over Bron. But I
- 25:41Speaker 3: hate the people that just like shit on Bron for
- 25:43Speaker 3: no reason because he's just never really done anything for
- 25:46Speaker 3: people to get on him about. But people love to hate.
- 25:49Speaker 3: So that's where I That's how I stand on it.
- 25:51Speaker 2: Yeah, they're They're the two goats for sure in my
- 25:54Speaker 2: opinion as well. Let's move on to the next game.
- 25:56Speaker 2: We got two games left. If you haven't done so already,
- 25:59Speaker 2: make sure you hit like makes you hit that subscribe.
- 26:01Speaker 2: We appreciate you coming in to listen to Matt's expertise
- 26:05Speaker 2: and for me to get a few laughs out on
- 26:06Speaker 2: a Friday afternoon. It's been a great week. About to
- 26:09Speaker 2: wrap it up, but we got the Celtics taking on
- 26:12Speaker 2: the Grizzlies. The Grizzlies, hey, they got them a doub
- 26:15Speaker 2: the other night, beat the Joker, beat the Nuggets. They're
- 26:17Speaker 2: fifteen and a half point favorites. I'll say the Celtics
- 26:20Speaker 2: are fully healthy. They have Jason Tatum, they have Jalen Brown.
- 26:24Speaker 2: I think schedule play to night along with Derek White
- 26:27Speaker 2: and the rest of the crew. But talk to me
- 26:28Speaker 2: a little bit about this game. Anybody that you like
- 26:30Speaker 2: on Boston even with this big spread going into Memphis
- 26:35Speaker 2: to take on the Grizzlies.
- 26:36Speaker 3: Yeah, Tatum's price right, still like big spread. But Tatum
- 26:39Speaker 3: should smash here. I mean, Memphis just doesn't have the
- 26:42Speaker 3: horses to stop him. So eighty five hundred for Tatum.
- 26:46Speaker 3: I think he's a solid cog tite. Like, I don't
- 26:49Speaker 3: think you're gonna get massive, massive upside because he's not
- 26:51Speaker 3: gonna play in seeing the amount of minutes, but you
- 26:54Speaker 3: should get a round thirty here, great spot. We'll probably
- 26:58Speaker 3: get there. They'll probably get him his thirty minutes. Regardless
- 27:01Speaker 3: of the blowout, so in a way you almost feel
- 27:04Speaker 3: not good about his his minutes, you know, cap, But like,
- 27:07Speaker 3: I think he's gonna get his thirty regardless. So I
- 27:11Speaker 3: like Tatum the most here, kind of buy a good
- 27:13Speaker 3: amount Peyton Pritchard in play sixty one hundred. I mean,
- 27:18Speaker 3: this is a good spot for Boston, so I think
- 27:21Speaker 3: you could definitely make a case for getting a bunch
- 27:24Speaker 3: of exposure here. Jalen Brown is expensive, but prices come down.
- 27:27Speaker 3: He's been good. I lean Tatum, but you're gonna get
- 27:31Speaker 3: more minutes out of Brown probably, I mean, I think
- 27:36Speaker 3: he's a guy. Them together, I don't know. Hard for
- 27:40Speaker 3: me to get to them together and allocate that much
- 27:42Speaker 3: salary on this slate with like Minnesota coming up. Then
- 27:48Speaker 3: I guess, like just from like a pure raw point standpoint,
- 27:53Speaker 3: if we get like a Reid and Mitch rob starting
- 27:58Speaker 3: and we play both those guys, I don't know though,
- 28:00Speaker 3: because like, yeah, I mean I'm against talking about this
- 28:05Speaker 3: out loud, like maybe you run it back with a
- 28:07Speaker 3: Ti Jerome because he's been really good. Like again, another guy,
- 28:12Speaker 3: You're just not gonna get massive minute or not massive.
- 28:15Speaker 3: You're not gonna get many minutes from but continues to smash,
- 28:21Speaker 3: so you're gonna have salary to spend. I'm talking about
- 28:25Speaker 3: Tie Jerome, and I'm just talking about if I play,
- 28:28Speaker 3: if I played JB and Tatum, I kind of want
- 28:31Speaker 3: someone from Memphis to to play with them, I guess though,
- 28:35Speaker 3: like from the devil's advocate side of that, like you're
- 28:38Speaker 3: just playing Brown and Tatum from for a raw points,
- 28:41Speaker 3: like because if you get Mick, Trov and Reid, you're
- 28:43Speaker 3: gonna have a lot of money to spend. So I
- 28:45Speaker 3: don't love it. I probably won't do it, but I
- 28:47Speaker 3: wouldn't make a rule to not do it.
- 28:49Speaker 2: In like multi entry stuff, yeah to I mean just looking,
- 28:53Speaker 2: I mean Tie Jerome. They just refuse to play more
- 28:55Speaker 2: than twenty five minutes and all the dude just goes
- 28:57Speaker 2: up their noses just who he has been injured. They're
- 29:00Speaker 2: obviously just playing out the string. And none of these guys,
- 29:06Speaker 2: none of these guys project for Yeah, look at look
- 29:09Speaker 2: at those minutes. They got nine guys projected, all for
- 29:13Speaker 2: less than twenty five minutes or less. It's just it's
- 29:16Speaker 2: just tough. They have to pop. But yeah, excellent stuff
- 29:19Speaker 2: there on that breakdown. We got one game left you
- 29:22Speaker 2: talked about the Timber Bowls. Ant is out. I think
- 29:25Speaker 2: I saw the other day he's out for a week
- 29:27Speaker 2: or so taking on the Trailblazers. Uh No, Aunt Julius
- 29:36Speaker 2: Randall has been very good in his absence. Rudy Goberts
- 29:39Speaker 2: you alluded to, he's up to seventy two hundred, has
- 29:41Speaker 2: been good. That's really it. That's out from what I'm seeing,
- 29:45Speaker 2: nas Reed is questionable. And then on the other side,
- 29:48Speaker 2: chadaon Sharp is out for the Trailblazers once again. He's
- 29:52Speaker 2: been out for a little over a month. But talk
- 29:54Speaker 2: to me a little bit about this game. You got
- 29:55Speaker 2: Denny who's back playing a little bit, but you got
- 29:58Speaker 2: the it's a close spread. I was surprised to see
- 30:00Speaker 2: it as disclosed even with ann Al but Trailblazers at
- 30:04Speaker 2: the Tea Wolves, Matt.
- 30:07Speaker 3: Yeah, this is definitely the game to uh to get
- 30:11Speaker 3: like a ton of exposure to. In my opinion, this
- 30:13Speaker 3: is where if I play read and not read, if
- 30:17Speaker 3: I play uh, yeah, read Paul Reid, not nas Reed.
- 30:20Speaker 3: Paul Reid and Mitch Trob, I think you just load
- 30:23Speaker 3: up on the expensive guys from this game. Denny, Julius Randall.
- 30:29Speaker 3: Both those guys look really really good at the forward spots.
- 30:32Speaker 3: I mean, Randall is just not He's just too cheap
- 30:35Speaker 3: for ant to be out. I'm surprised d K didn't
- 30:37Speaker 3: raise his price more. He's like one hundred dollars more
- 30:39Speaker 3: than he was last week. So Randall, I'm gonna just
- 30:43Speaker 3: keep playing him here. Denny coming off a really good game.
- 30:46Speaker 3: Right when I talked about how he hadn't shown upside
- 30:48Speaker 3: in forever, he shows massive upside, So yeah, I get it.
- 30:53Speaker 3: It was against the Pacers, though, so I'm a little
- 30:55Speaker 3: bit more hesitant than the field. I think I'm Denny.
- 30:58Speaker 3: I like the Wolves more than I like the Blare.
- 31:00Speaker 3: They're playing good ball with Ant Out. Guys are priced
- 31:03Speaker 3: up but not where they should be. So Randall bones
- 31:06Speaker 3: Highland do Soon moves still even though he's sixty two hundred.
- 31:10Speaker 3: I like him coming off a monster game. I want
- 31:14Speaker 3: Minnesota exposure. I've been playing them a lot. I'll keep
- 31:16Speaker 3: doing it tonight. I like those three to Soon move Bones.
- 31:21Speaker 3: Randall nas Red looks good here. I mentioned Gobert earlier.
- 31:26Speaker 3: If we don't get Paul Reid and mit trib like
- 31:29Speaker 3: if towns are during or both are in. I think
- 31:31Speaker 3: Gobert then looks a lot better and one of the
- 31:34Speaker 3: best center plays on the slate. Jaden McDaniels small Ford eligible.
- 31:39Speaker 3: I'm in on the Wolves here from the Blazers, it's
- 31:43Speaker 3: Denny Man. I don't love the spot from Clinging and
- 31:46Speaker 3: I'm man talk about Fomo. I talk a lot on
- 31:50Speaker 3: the show about how I like clinging. I like clinging
- 31:52Speaker 3: a lot. He came in under one percent in like
- 31:54Speaker 3: the five fifty five, and I did not play him,
- 31:56Speaker 3: and he threw up like a sixty ball. So I
- 31:58Speaker 3: got big, big Fomo there. I don't know if I
- 32:01Speaker 3: can go back to him here in a much tougher spot.
- 32:06Speaker 3: Scoot Henderson forty eight hundred. He's a little bit interesting
- 32:08Speaker 3: to me. I don't really want to spend on the
- 32:11Speaker 3: Portland guys. Drew is too hard to get to now
- 32:15Speaker 3: with Denny back and playing his full role, Robert Williams
- 32:22Speaker 3: would be in play if we get if we don't
- 32:25Speaker 3: get the Knicks and Piston center chief centers to play.
- 32:30Speaker 3: So yeah, all in all, I like this game a lot,
- 32:33Speaker 3: but specifically from the Wolf side.
- 32:37Speaker 2: Yeah, the McDaniels. Rio said something about McDaniels the other
- 32:42Speaker 2: day on Tuesday, and he went out and had like
- 32:43Speaker 2: forty points. One of our members took down a contest
- 32:46Speaker 2: with him, So yeah, we both like McDaniels des soum MoU.
- 32:50Speaker 2: Even though he took a twelve hundred dollars price bump,
- 32:54Speaker 2: it's probably worth it because there is no aunt. He
- 32:57Speaker 2: was very efficient in his last game against the Jazz,
- 32:59Speaker 2: who obviously aren't very good. But yeah, I'm trying to
- 33:03Speaker 2: look and see if there's anybody else in this game.
- 33:05Speaker 2: So how many players in this game? Is too many?
- 33:09Speaker 3: Like?
- 33:09Speaker 2: Are you okay with doing like three Wolves and one Blazer?
- 33:13Speaker 2: Would you? Or would you want two Blazers if you
- 33:15Speaker 2: had three Wolves? What would you? What would you thinking
- 33:17Speaker 2: if you had to like overstack this game.
- 33:19Speaker 3: I could play like four Wolves and no Blazers. I think,
- 33:22Speaker 3: oh wow, Yeah, it's not ideal. And if you're doing that,
- 33:26Speaker 3: you probably want Denny, But I don't think you have to.
- 33:32Speaker 3: I like the Wolves side a lot more. I do
- 33:34Speaker 3: think Denny looks good at his price tag and projects, Well,
- 33:38Speaker 3: it's just an ownership thing there.
- 33:41Speaker 1: Uh.
- 33:41Speaker 3: I don't think there's anyone else from the Wolves that
- 33:45Speaker 3: is really gonna get a lot of ownership, even in
- 33:48Speaker 3: a game that's projected to be highly owned. I'm not
- 33:51Speaker 3: forcing guys like Drew Holliday, Kamara, you know, guys like that.
- 33:58Speaker 3: The only thing I'll say is if I were one fifty,
- 34:00Speaker 3: I get exposure to all those guys because I like
- 34:02Speaker 3: this game. But in like three lineups, like limited lineups tonight,
- 34:09Speaker 3: I'm not sure if I get to anyone else from
- 34:11Speaker 3: Portland outside of Denny. Maybe Robert Williams, depending on what
- 34:17Speaker 3: the center how the center spot you know, breaks out
- 34:19Speaker 3: in New York and Detroit. But I could end up
- 34:22Speaker 3: seeing playing you know, three Wolves. Maybe I got a
- 34:26Speaker 3: little over zealous saying four, but I'm cool playing three
- 34:29Speaker 3: Wolves without a Blazer. So anything more than that, like
- 34:32Speaker 3: four Wolves, one Blazer, three and one two on one,
- 34:35Speaker 3: I'm good with any of that.
- 34:37Speaker 2: What about if Nasred is listened as questionable? What if
- 34:40Speaker 2: he were to miss, Like who gets the biggest bump there? Does?
- 34:43Speaker 2: Does does Randall get even more minutes or does someone
- 34:46Speaker 2: do they have someone else on the bench that would
- 34:48Speaker 2: could take his minutes?
- 34:49Speaker 3: Yeah, Kyle Anderson would probably get a big bump. Then,
- 34:53Speaker 3: so Kyle Anderson along with just a bump to go
- 34:56Speaker 3: Bear Randall and f everyone else because nas Reed is
- 35:01Speaker 3: a guy that's good offensively, so everyone else is gonna
- 35:04Speaker 3: have to pick up a little bit of his slack.
- 35:06Speaker 3: I like everyone a little bit more of him out.
- 35:08Speaker 3: Kyle Anderson, I think, is the guy that goes from
- 35:11Speaker 3: not really playable to definitely playable with him out.
- 35:15Speaker 2: What about Bones Hyland versus Gary Payton Junior?
- 35:22Speaker 3: Easy bones for me? I mean not even I mean
- 35:26Speaker 3: I'm playing Bones over GP over over the mitten all
- 35:30Speaker 3: day the mitten.
- 35:33Speaker 2: I like that. Marque Sports wanted to know that, and
- 35:38Speaker 2: then we had a question, do you have any bets
- 35:40Speaker 2: for the people? The people? The people want bets? Matt
- 35:43Speaker 2: to sitting a betting show. We don't condone betting unless
- 35:46Speaker 2: it's legal, But any bets that you like tonight from
- 35:49Speaker 2: a player prop perspectively.
- 35:55Speaker 3: No, I'm not a huge props better anyways. The only
- 35:57Speaker 3: bets I have are a little bit of NCAA tournament stuff,
- 36:02Speaker 3: but uh nothing.
- 36:04Speaker 2: There was about forty So yeah, so don't you don't
- 36:06Speaker 2: want my bets?
- 36:07Speaker 3: Yeah? I am on Hofstra right now, so we'll see
- 36:10Speaker 3: how that goes.
- 36:11Speaker 2: Oh so we're a line there. I got Hobstra as well.
- 36:13Speaker 2: So good stuff, Matt. You know it's it's my favorite
- 36:16Speaker 2: part of the show. I gotta make it. I gotta
- 36:18Speaker 2: make it difficult for you. Who scores the most points tonight?
- 36:24Speaker 2: That that?
- 36:24Speaker 3: That that not?
- 36:25Speaker 2: I mean yeah, so who scores the most points? And
- 36:28Speaker 2: who's the best play. Let's say between six and seven
- 36:32Speaker 2: thousand dollars?
- 36:36Speaker 3: The best play between six and seven thousand dollars? All right,
- 36:39Speaker 3: let me.
- 36:41Speaker 2: Pull up that on one and two are my favorite.
- 36:45Speaker 3: Give me a second, just because I got to get there.
- 36:49Speaker 3: Oh another guy right at the bottom of that range
- 36:51Speaker 3: we didn't mention, uh, Dante di Vincenzo also in play.
- 36:57Speaker 3: Hm hmm, man, that's tough range, Like why that range?
- 37:04Speaker 2: Do you want to go six to eight?
- 37:08Speaker 3: Let me see sixty eight? God, no, that's that's funny.
- 37:15Speaker 3: I guess I just don't love this whole like that
- 37:17Speaker 3: six y eight.
- 37:18Speaker 2: That's no one's gonna like it.
- 37:20Speaker 3: So we got we got yeah, No, you're right, I mean,
- 37:23Speaker 3: oh yeah, I guess the guy is easy for me,
- 37:27Speaker 3: but I you know, it's hard to love him with
- 37:30Speaker 3: the price increase. But give me the soon mo sixty
- 37:32Speaker 3: two hundred, uh lower end of that range, not getting
- 37:37Speaker 3: a ton of love because of the price jump, and
- 37:38Speaker 3: I think he's we saw a massive game from him
- 37:42Speaker 3: with Chicago a lot, so I think he's got it
- 37:44Speaker 3: in him. Like, I'm not that concerned about the price increase.
- 37:48Speaker 3: Give me the soon move here, the.
- 37:50Speaker 2: Soon move all right? I thought I thought, I thought
- 37:52Speaker 2: for sure you were gonna say, o, g Annobi at
- 37:55Speaker 2: sixty nine hundred, I'm gonna stay in that same game.
- 38:00Speaker 2: It's a good I like him and JAYD McDaniels, like
- 38:02Speaker 2: both of those guys.
- 38:04Speaker 3: Yeah, probably a better Ranson I was giving a credit
- 38:06Speaker 3: for when you consider Towns is likely out because you've
- 38:09Speaker 3: got og in there. So yeah, And.
- 38:13Speaker 2: Who leads the slate and scoring tonight?
- 38:18Speaker 3: Man only one player above ten k tonight, and he
- 38:21Speaker 3: kind of projects widely more than everyone else. So yeah,
- 38:26Speaker 3: that's gotta be Jalen Johnson, Like I could walk in.
- 38:31Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 38:31Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean after that though, like that's kind of
- 38:35Speaker 3: the reason you asked about could rostering Tatum and Brown together?
- 38:39Speaker 3: I think yeah, I mean there's even then if if
- 38:43Speaker 3: Boston blows out Memphis here, there's it's not crazy to
- 38:46Speaker 3: think that Tatum and Brown are like the third and
- 38:48Speaker 3: fourth highest scoring overall players on the slate like Jalen
- 38:52Speaker 3: Johnson's not in a good spot. Brunson blowout, you know, like,
- 38:58Speaker 3: I don't know I could see it. I'm thinking about
- 39:00Speaker 3: that question since you asked it, and I think this
- 39:02Speaker 3: is a weird slate where you could play both of
- 39:04Speaker 3: them together.
- 39:06Speaker 2: This is a good this is a good question too.
- 39:08Speaker 2: We're not gonna really touch on it much. It's a
- 39:10Speaker 2: FanDuel question. Thirteen k Joker four point seven, Mitch rob
- 39:16Speaker 2: Or four point two, Paul Reed. They're all center only.
- 39:19Speaker 2: There's no flex over there. I mean, without knowing much
- 39:22Speaker 2: of the context of the slate, who would you take there?
- 39:25Speaker 3: Matt? Who is man? I'm not even who does Denver
- 39:30Speaker 3: play tonight?
- 39:32Speaker 2: Denver plays.
- 39:36Speaker 3: Of Raptors. It's not it's not gonna be Jokic. I mean,
- 39:43Speaker 3: I just I think I don't think you can pass
- 39:45Speaker 3: up the value. I think it's got to be read
- 39:47Speaker 3: at the.
- 39:49Speaker 2: Four to two. That's dirt cheap over there. I mean
- 39:51Speaker 2: this is suming Durns out right, So assuming Durns out
- 39:55Speaker 2: I probably agree with you. I mean, he's gonna get
- 39:58Speaker 2: thirty minimum them.
- 40:02Speaker 3: I think it's read at four two. God, we got
- 40:06Speaker 3: guys still talking about Totler Smith in the chat. See
- 40:09Speaker 3: what you've done? I hate it here?
- 40:11Speaker 2: Well that was that was gonna be my last question.
- 40:13Speaker 2: What's that?
- 40:14Speaker 3: I knew it was?
- 40:15Speaker 2: What's the over under on Totlu Smith tonight?
- 40:19Speaker 3: I mean, what's the real?
- 40:21Speaker 2: Like?
- 40:21Speaker 3: What are you asking?
- 40:23Speaker 2: Well, just like if I said to Louise Smith's gonna
- 40:25Speaker 2: score eleven and a half fantasy once taking it over the.
- 40:30Speaker 3: Under, I'm taking the over if Durn's out, Like if
- 40:35Speaker 3: Durn's in.
- 40:36Speaker 2: I'm taking away. Assuming Durns out, tot lou Smith.
- 40:40Speaker 3: Like, what do you think just because you've never heard
- 40:42Speaker 3: of him? He stinks and.
- 40:43Speaker 2: He's no, no, no, I want to clarify, he's three thousand.
- 40:49Speaker 2: So he said, perfectly fine play.
- 40:52Speaker 3: I just think it's guy's on their side on this too. Man,
- 40:56Speaker 3: he's been mentioned in the discord too. I need I
- 40:59Speaker 3: need some people to back me up until this. I
- 41:01Speaker 3: can't wait for him news.
- 41:02Speaker 2: His left new It's is the only one that's gonna
- 41:04Speaker 2: back you up on this.
- 41:06Speaker 3: Well, we got other guys, We got other guys, all right.
- 41:12Speaker 3: He had a thirty thirty seven, like I mean, he's
- 41:15Speaker 3: got thirty seven Fantasy points this season.
- 41:18Speaker 2: Yes, when I'm not saying that, not that amazing thing.
- 41:24Speaker 3: What do you mean You're not saying that like you
- 41:25Speaker 3: didn't see the game live like I do.
- 41:29Speaker 2: Know. One thing about Soler Smith is he was productive.
- 41:33Speaker 3: January tenth against the Clippers, he had thirty seven Fantasy
- 41:37Speaker 3: points and in against the Clippers on the tenth of
- 41:40Speaker 3: January he had nine points, fourteen boards, one assist, four blocks,
- 41:45Speaker 3: and a steal boom against the Bulls. And in November
- 41:51Speaker 3: he had twenty fantasy points in sixteen minutes against in
- 41:55Speaker 3: his first NBA action six minutes seventh teen and a
- 42:00Speaker 3: half fantasy points against my Calves in a blowout. So
- 42:03Speaker 3: like he's their third string center or like kind of
- 42:07Speaker 3: their fourth string if Isaiah Stewart were in, but he's
- 42:10Speaker 3: out too, Like I mean, I'm telling you if.
- 42:14Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, I'll stand if I'll say this, if Towns
- 42:20Speaker 2: is in, I think you can play Red Antolin Smith together.
- 42:25Speaker 3: Really yeah, definitely.
- 42:30Speaker 2: If if Towns is in, let's say, can you do
- 42:32Speaker 2: this read now, I was gonna see if you could
- 42:43Speaker 2: play read Tolu and and Paul and you can't because
- 42:47Speaker 2: they're all they're all center. Only we read Tolu and
- 42:52Speaker 2: what uh Mitch Rob they're all center only though, what
- 43:01Speaker 2: about chas Lanier.
- 43:04Speaker 3: Never, he's not even a good fantasy producers.
- 43:12Speaker 2: Plays Chasler that I'm trolling right now, as my thirteen
- 43:16Speaker 2: year old daughter would say, I'm trolling.
- 43:20Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, good.
- 43:22Speaker 2: Hey, you got me a believer on Tolu. I'm gonna
- 43:25Speaker 2: have one total lou team. I mean, I just gotta
- 43:27Speaker 2: do it now.
- 43:28Speaker 3: Ah why Durn's gonna play and it's gonna screw us
- 43:32Speaker 3: if Darren plays.
- 43:33Speaker 2: Yeah, this, this whole this whole bit is just gonna
- 43:35Speaker 2: be for nought. But man, next Friday Show is gonna
- 43:38Speaker 2: be a good one, so I can't wait. Hopefully I'm
- 43:40Speaker 2: in the Winter Circle on that one. I'll never let you.
- 43:43Speaker 2: I'll never let you, and I know that I know
- 43:49Speaker 2: the discord is gonna be popping.
- 43:50Speaker 3: Yeah, man, totally. I'm surprised though, because I feel like you,
- 43:55Speaker 3: I feel like you know I'm a little bit taken aback,
- 43:57Speaker 3: like you know you. I thought you knew sec Ball
- 44:01Speaker 3: like he was in Monster and Mississippi State last year.
- 44:05Speaker 3: He came from I think Western Kentucky. He transferred, but man,
- 44:08Speaker 3: he was like good Mississippi State stunk, so it wasn't
- 44:12Speaker 3: like they were really good themselves, but he was good.
- 44:16Speaker 3: And man, I don't know, like if Duran's out, because
- 44:20Speaker 3: with Stuart out, he's for sure and play.
- 44:24Speaker 2: Well. There you have it. Tolu was six eleven, two
- 44:29Speaker 2: fifty so so so oh so that may be onto something.
- 44:35Speaker 2: Former Western Kentucky centers they in Tolu tonight, Robinson, Tolu, Topper,
- 44:45Speaker 2: what can we call that? I need I need to
- 44:46Speaker 2: you know, Tambo's.
- 44:47Speaker 3: I don't know, but new Ones is right, like, yeah,
- 44:51Speaker 3: I mean you drop, You're dropping like Kendall Gill Ron Mercer,
- 44:54Speaker 3: but yet you don't even know your own backyard SDC
- 44:58Speaker 3: ball Tolu.
- 45:00Speaker 2: Man, these kids they play with too many schools these days.
- 45:04Speaker 3: Yeah, you're right, and again not like Mississippi State is
- 45:07Speaker 3: some main draw, but I like him tonight. If it
- 45:10Speaker 3: runs out, we'll see.
- 45:12Speaker 2: Speaking of knowing ball in the Ohio State, you know,
- 45:14Speaker 2: it was one of my all time favorite college players
