All system's going clear for lifting. What's going on? Everybody? Happy Wednesday,
0:39
talking some hoops with my man, Rio, Ben's in here, Sean's
0:43
in here, Mark's in here, Paradise in here. Crazy day already in
0:46
association. We're down to eight games, eight games late on Wednesday, Big
0:51
eight eight eight out there, very fun. If you're in that, I
0:54
am not today. Rio. I'll ask if you are in a sack.
0:56
But if you're out there, good luck in that, good luck in the
0:59
streets. Eight games though, I'm excited for Siakam and obviously condolences to the
1:03
Warriors assistant coach that game is postponed. Eight games real throw to you.
1:07
How are you doing on this Wednesday? Yeah, I'm doing good. Just
1:11
put up a slate plan, had a good time writing up all my matchup
1:15
stuff for this slate. But yeah, definitely interesting slate. Also, yeah,
1:19
condolences to the assistant head coach for the Warriors. Just a freak accident,
1:23
but all that aside. Yeah, I just got the Saka news that
1:27
he was traded this morning. So we'll definitely try to break that down to
1:30
the best of our ability, get a better idea of how it's going to
1:34
go. With the rotations with him out of the lineup. Now, yeah,
1:38
I'll get to you in like the broad Slate Overview because obviously some of
1:42
these raptors are going to be important. Man. Yeah, you know it's
1:46
a little cold title. As a hood up. I was outside cranking some
1:49
push ups and joined the fresh air. It is Chile in Arizona, though
1:52
it ain't Wisconsin Chile of course, so I'm not going to complain, but
1:55
is a little chili up here. Yeah, I appreciate it. Everyone hanging
1:57
out with us, life fun. We always appreciate it. And if you
2:00
do want to join us at Schipennation dot com. No better time to get
2:04
in golf tomorrow morning, MMA, big pay per view this weekend. Gonna
2:07
get your thoughts on that in the set, because man, I'm still going
2:09
back and forth kind of on this main event. Very exciting of course,
2:13
NFL playoffs, NBA going on. No better time to get in weekly,
2:16
monthly, six months and annual. Use that comeo, get you ten percent
2:21
off any package. Rio. I'm gonna get your broad Slate Overview first,
2:24
though. You got to give me your prediction. I'm the main event this
2:27
weekend. Yeah, I think we got picture in that overlay might have got
2:31
a little messed up here. Yeah, I know. I'm fixing it right
2:34
now, fixing it. Yeah. I think I think I got Strickland.
2:38
I think he's going to come in pretty motivated. I do think. I
2:39
mean, Dricus is a he's a beast, just crazy knockout artists, got
2:43
a ton of power. But I think I think Strickland's gonna be able to
2:46
pick him apart just with the the uniqueness of his style. I think he's
2:51
got it. I like it now. Any broad slate overview talking NBA will
2:57
go game by game in a second. But obviously this ramp is looking at
3:00
like the most chockey players on the late Joe Ingles is definitely gonna be mega
3:04
chalk three point five K. People are gonna use him. I think for
3:07
some value these raptors, Schroeder, barretts quickly. I think it's some without
3:13
Siakam. It definitely looks like a mid tier build without many I think ads
3:17
as high as people will go. What are your thoughts like balanced stars and
3:21
scrubs just initial Broadsley overview on this A gamer, Yeah, I mean there's
3:24
a couple of ways that can go because I think there's a couple of really
3:28
strong spin up options tonight. Pretty much everybody, Donovan, Mitchell and above
3:32
is has a case for a really high ceiling tonight. But obviously the pricing
3:37
of the draggings has been a little bit tougher, with the value being,
3:39
you know, a lot tighter. You have to kind of build around the
3:42
mid tier a little bit. But there are some pretty good places in the
3:45
mid tier as well, so I think that it really can go either way.
3:49
Obviously we don't really have a ton of value right now. I got
3:51
a little bit from the Toronto side, but yeah, you have to get
3:53
a little bit a little creative if you want to get up to the Giannis
3:57
and Luca a D type place tonight. But I think we'll be able to
4:00
do it. Yeah, there's a lot of Q tags like always, so
4:02
news could break that way right now. If this late started, though,
4:04
I don't think I think ad would be as high. I think as people
4:08
go and mid tier would be pretty popular. What's going on, Jasmine?
4:12
Hope everything's well? JB. Knox and you're thirty two here in Maine shorts
4:15
Weather. Hey love to see that, definitely, thirty two of this time
4:17
of year. Definitely can get away with some shorts. All right, let's
4:20
go game by game again. Appreciate everyone hanging out. Hope you're having a
4:24
good day like Budon always appreciated. Minnesota Timberwolf Detroit Pistons two twenty two total,
4:29
Minnesota favored by twelve low total, big spread ants is questionable. We
4:33
will get this news before lock with the knee and then on the Detroit side,
4:38
obviously Kate still out, Gallo Muscala. Questionable means nothing on the slates.
4:44
I'll throw it right to you. I don't have much interest in this
4:46
game. What are your thoughts? Yeah, I mean the Piston's pretty much
4:49
a full fade. I think it's pretty easy. I think that those guys
4:51
that they just got over from the trade are available to play tonight, so
4:55
that's just gonna make their rotation even more confusing than it already has been.
4:59
So I think you can kind of just x out the Pistons and move on.
5:00
But there are a few, I mean, really the big three for
5:04
Minnesota are interesting to me. If Anthony Edwards is in eight point three k
5:08
this is probably one of the easiest matchups that he'll face all year long.
5:12
Just the Pistons provide no rim defense at Also, I think that he would
5:15
be in a really good spot. A point three K has really sold price
5:16
sect for him. If he's out car Anthony talents seven point seven K,
5:21
we'll see a ton of usage. It's a tough matchup actually versus a Isaiah
5:25
Stewart. The Pistons are one of the top teams in DVP in terms of
5:30
drafting scorings versus power forward, so a little bit of a tougher on paper
5:33
matchup, but if Anthony Edwards is out, he'll definitely see more usage.
5:36
And I like to spot for Rudy Gobert to seven point one K. He's
5:41
been rolling lately forty six plus DK points in three straight games. It's a
5:45
solid matchup versus Jalen Duran During's a pretty okay interior defender. But the Pistons
5:50
are giving up a ton of blocks and steels to the center position this year,
5:55
so I think that Rudy Gobert could find a little bit of a ceiling
5:58
from blocks and steels perspective. But really, just those three guys is what
6:01
I'm looking to. On the Wolves side, would you make a max one
6:05
and if an out, Yeah, I would. Talent would probably be popular,
6:09
Gobert would probably be a little popular, assuming an Sam, would you
6:12
make a max one rule? Be fine with two because I think they're all
6:15
fine as I don't know, I'll get your thoughts on that. I think
6:17
two is probably fine. You could probably get a wig with two. I
6:20
think that I would. I probably just want to be max one. Just
6:25
it's a big slate and there are some really good games later in the night.
6:27
I wouldn't want to lock up too many spots early in the night when
6:30
there's some you know, maybe some weird stuff happens and we get some value
6:34
later on. I wouldn't want to lock up too many positions. Yeah,
6:38
good call there for sure. What's going on, Jake? What's going on?
6:41
Jordan? And yes, we're gonna get to the Raptors got traded.
6:45
He is not playing. I found Nick so Miami Heat Toronto Raptors two twenty
6:48
six total. Miami is favored by three and a half. Miami side,
6:53
Hokez and Kevin Lover out. Toronto side got traded. The indie Yaka Purtle's
6:59
still out. Trent is questionable. I think this is an interesting spot.
7:03
I don't think it's like right away, you think, all right, tiakam
7:06
out slam all the raptors with how big this slate is and with their pricing's
7:11
at I don't think that's the case. I think quickly it's a good play.
7:13
Barrett's a good play. I think the Trent news is pretty important as
7:16
well. I'll throw it right to you talk about Toronto side to start,
7:20
and then Miami's without Hotkes. I guess a little boost to some of these
7:26
guys, but more so the Toronto side I'm interested in talk about it.
7:29
Yeah, So with the Siacame trade, that will likely bring Dennis Schroeder into
7:32
the starting lineup. I was thinking slash hoping it would be Chris Bouche.
7:36
Obviously he's always been a really solid fantasy point a minute producer, but I
7:41
think he'll continue to come off the bench. He doesn't really project well,
7:43
but I think he is someone that will definitely see a bigger minute ceiling with
7:47
the Siaca trade. But yeah, they'll probably just end up giving you know,
7:50
Barnes quickly Barrett Shorter all the minutes that they can handle, and then
7:54
just kind of having you know, their three headed monster at center with Porter
7:59
that Young and Bouchet all kind of mixing in. But I think the biggest
8:03
winner in the trade is definitely Dennis Schroeder. He'll probably end up taking on
8:07
more of the ball handling role now and shift quickly to the two spot.
8:11
Just because Schroeder is more of an on ball guy. It doesn'titely play well
8:15
off balls. I think that five point five k he comes into play and
8:18
it's just an okay matchup versus Miami. These two teams kind of play pretty
8:22
slow defensively, but it is worth mentioning the Raptors defense has been really bad
8:28
since they traded og and Andoby. They've played nine games post Ognoby and the
8:33
bottom four defensive rating, bottom ten defense, and bottom two and three point
8:37
defense. I think that guys like Jimmy Butler or not Jimmy Butler, sorry
8:41
Tyler, Hero makes a ton of sense as a three point shooter. Yeah,
8:45
I don't really you can get away playing all the three for Miami.
8:50
I think I prefer Hero the best just for the matchup, but I don't
8:54
love any of them particularly. I like the guys on the Toronto side much
8:58
more. Ainly. RJ. Barrett, this is a really good matchup.
9:01
For him. I think he has a really big upside case. At six
9:05
point six k. The heat are pretty bad versus like for on or off
9:11
ball shooters, so I think this could be a pretty big squad for Barrett.
9:13
He's taken thirteen plus shots in four out of the last five games and
9:18
scored twenty three plus and four of those games. The DK scoring has been
9:22
pretty solid too, so I think that he has some pretty I thought it
9:24
was I thought it was sneaky, but he's looking at a ton of ownership
9:26
now. But I think he's my favorite playing in this game. I like
9:31
it. Yeah, I think all these Schroeder is definitely gonna be I think
9:33
the most pop in this game. Barrett's gonna get something quickly. I think
9:37
Scotty gets probably comes in fourth. They're all solid plays. I like your
9:41
Tyler giro shout, just talking matchup stuff. If you're playing multiple raptors pretty
9:46
close. Spread is eight games late. But I mean if you stack this
9:48
game a little bit, it'll be pretty contrarian, So I don't mind that.
9:52
Who are your or would you make any rules with these raptors like quickly
9:56
Barrett, Scotty Schroeder, You probably don't want to play all four tell me
10:01
if I'm wrong, But any rule like that you group away. I think
10:03
you'd probably want to be max two of three of Quickly Barrett Schroeder, And
10:07
I think that Scottie Barnes is kind of fine just floating around because he can
10:11
get it done in multiple ways. I would expect him to take on more
10:13
usage with Siakam out, but I mean it's it's been. His role has
10:18
been really really diminished since Quickly and Barton have entered that starting starting lineup,
10:22
So I don't really I'm not too excited about Scotty, but he like theoretically,
10:28
he should be a much better play now. I like this show too,
10:31
Jake. If I played anyone on Miami, it's Jimmy or Tiro.
10:35
Jimmy comes back, he plays forty minutes. He shot the ball really well,
10:37
sixteen free throw attempts. But if he played forty minutes, I don't
10:41
know, seven point a K and be pretty low ownership. You prefer Hero
10:46
though they're both the same price. Yeah, I just think that Hero stily
10:50
has better upside in this type of matchup. But I think Butler is totally
10:54
fine. He's he's kind of kind of reminds me of like the Devar de
10:58
Rosan type play when he's really solid catching and play. But it is kind
11:03
of crazy. I was just I saw sad about players that get most of
11:07
their points from free throw shooting. And Jimmy Butler's second in the league,
11:09
which is kind of crazy because I don't think that he gets that that same
11:13
type of hate that like Embeid and Trey Young get. Yeah. No,
11:18
that's really interesting. I didn't know that that's a lot of free throws.
11:20
Hey, good for him, though, Gotta work with what you got.
11:24
I yeah, hero, but I would match one of these heat guys,
11:26
and I'd probably bump them more if I was playing like two of these Raptors
11:31
or more. That's how I kind of approaches. But they're all good playing
11:33
Schroeders, Gotti, Barrett Quickly, all good plays. We'll keep it rolling
11:37
next game, honestly. So, yeah, there was only one game,
11:39
that Minnesota Detroit game. We didn't have much interest that locked at seven eastern,
11:45
and then we have multiple seven thirty eastern games. So if some of
11:48
that news doesn't break, that's part of the reason not to jam that first
11:50
game. Keep it rolling next game. Orlando Magic Atlanta Hawks two twenty nine
11:54
total. Hawks favored by four. No injury news on the Hawks side as
11:58
far as Orlando Franz and Gary Harris are out. Not a game that will
12:03
get much ownership. I think Paulo is obviously the only play he'll get some
12:09
ownership at eight point AK And how does he rank amongst the studs. He
12:11
fits kind of that mid tier build right now with that lack of value.
12:16
Joe Ingles too, he talk about him too. He's projecting very well for
12:20
or not I shouldn't say he's projecting very well on the nature of the slate
12:24
without much value three point five K. I'm seeing him be pretty popular,
12:26
So touch on him, touch on Paulo and anything else in this one go
12:30
go as well. Yeah, I didn't even I didn't realize how popular Joe
12:35
Ingles was looking. But I'm seeing like almost sixty percent. I think anytime
12:39
you get like a low usage board, you want to kind of just try
12:43
to build away from it. So that's how I would approach that that value.
12:46
So I think that there's plenty, plenty of mid range plays that we
12:50
don't only have to dumpster dive all the way down to a Joe Ingles type
12:54
play, and I will say it's pretty good. And any Q take that
12:58
like gets ruled out if any of these big QUE takes get rolled out,
13:00
like, that's where the angles play ownership gets cut, like in the fifth
13:03
if like some other bad or some other better value opens up. So that's
13:09
why, like right now, if it's late locked, if all these Q
13:11
tags are in, he will be popular just because what he makes work.
13:13
But as Real said, that's probably the easiest fad in tournaments. That's how
13:18
I see it. Yeah, I definitely agree with that. Yeah, when
13:22
I'm surprised to see Atlanta's favored in this game, I think it's just been
13:26
really just terrible definitively all year long. Their bottom four defensive rating on the
13:31
season, bottom two rim defense, bottom seven to three point defense, and
13:35
bottom three and transition defense, and the Magic have been one of the better
13:39
defensive teams, their top three in defensive rating. So I was pretty surprised
13:43
to see Atlanta was favored in this one. But yeah, this matchup is
13:48
really good for polo. I'm gonna be able to get to the rim at
13:50
ease in this one. Just the Hawks provide no into your defense at all.
13:54
Their terrible transition defense. So I think that Paulo is in a really
13:56
good spot here. He's up to fourteen drives per game on the year,
14:00
and since Fronz Wagner has missed a bunch of games, he's seen a really
14:05
big uptick in the touchtown usage and assist percentage numbers. So I think that
14:09
he's in a really good spot here. Going to see Jayen Johnson a lot
14:11
of the game on defense, and as much as I like Jen and Johnson
14:15
as a player, just not a really good defender at this point in his
14:18
career. So I think that paul is in a pretty big spot here.
14:20
And everything else on the Magics have not too excited about. The centers are
14:24
projecting pretty well. Goga Patadze is project projecting well, but their coach said
14:30
that they're going to be mixing up the starting lineup a bunch going forward,
14:33
so you don't really know who's guaranteed the minutes. You know, we know
14:37
that Paulo, Sugs Cole Anthony are going to see the normal minutes, but
14:41
all these secondary guys that could fluctuate on a day about day basis, which
14:45
is another good reason why you can get away from Joe Ingles because not guaranteed
14:48
to see twenty minutes here and then on the Atlanta side, I actually and
14:56
I'm usually not on the Tree Young side of things, but it's actually a
14:58
pretty good spot for him. The Magic are bottom five and pick and roll
15:01
defense, and Trey is the league's best pick and roll score this season,
15:05
so I think that this is a sneaky big spot for Tray here. He
15:07
had a bounce back game after a string of AFFL games last time al He
15:11
went it for thirty six, six and thirteen for seventy DK points. Obviously
15:16
a softer match versus San Antonio, but this is kind of a This is
15:20
a pretty good spot for Trey, and I have a little bit of interest
15:22
in him, and I think that Jenn Johnson is probably the only other guy
15:26
that I would consider, But seven point three K in a pacedown spot not
15:31
really where I'm looking to play Jenn Johnson. I want him more on the
15:33
pace up spots, like against the Pacers or the Wizards type of games.
15:37
I love that Tray shout. He's gonna be so super low on right between
15:41
d Mitch and Anthony Davis, Paulo, Trey Young, right there in a
15:45
mid tier build. I really like how that stacks up. And outside of
15:48
Paulo, that game is going to be really low on. I like Paula
15:50
two good stats there about his drives and stuff like that. So I thought
15:54
it was just polar or bus. I think the angles fades pretty easy in
15:58
cash games right now, like he's going to be on the cash report that
16:00
very well might change. Everything is updated in yellow throughout the night. If
16:04
I make a change or something, always refresh on it. Projections are updated.
16:08
Ownership is as well. So if you want to join Chhipinnation dot com,

16:37
Next game on the slate. Again, not much ownership I see in this
16:40
one. If anything. The Studs Bucks Cavaliers two thirty six total bucks favored
16:45
by four nothing on the buck side for the injury report for Cleveland, no
16:48
Carslavert questionable, Garland Mobley is still out again. I think like that's kind
16:53
of what your point to your trade or with Trey Young, and my point
16:56
to it was dmich is gonna be pretty popular thing get nine to six,
17:00
A d is gonna be I think, relatively popular. At ten k.
17:03
You get him at relatively no ownership. Talk about him though, Dmis that
17:07
is like compare him to Apollo and then Gannest on the other side, he
17:11
can absolutely nuke. But right now eleven k, there's so many guys in
17:14
that mid tier where mid tier to upper tier we're talking about I don't think
17:18
I'm really gonna go up there personally, but you can't make a case against
17:21
them. Then talk about Lillard Allen and if does if Phlippburg News does anything.
17:26
Yeah. So in terms of Mitchell versus the guys in the previous game,
17:30
definitely prefer Mitchell. This is just a spot that we've been attacking all
17:33
year long. With the Milwaukee Guards defense just being terrible. They're gonna put
17:38
Milie Beasley on him. They trust Milik Beasley to play a lot of minutes
17:42
and to play on ball defense, and that's just not gonna be good for
17:47
this matchup. The the or the Bus are dead last pick and roll defense
17:52
on the year, and definitely Mitchell is ninth overall and points off of pick
17:55
and roll this season, so this is a really big spot for him.
17:57
He should go off here almost ten K, though it's a little bit expensive
18:02
for him when you think about how he plays, just he he really needs
18:06
kind of similar to Shay in some ways. He could definitely have a spike
18:08
and assist totals from game to game, but he's really scoring dependent. Could
18:12
definitely go off for forty plus points in this matchup. It's a great matchup,
18:15
but yeah, I definitely like him a lot here and then yeah,
18:22
like matchup wise, kind of a tough matchup for Gihanni's gonna be seeing Jared
18:25
Allen on defense most of the game, which obviously is gonna make things difficult
18:29
for him. Jared Allen one of the better interior defenders. Cavs defense has
18:32
been great all year long. Top six roun defense, top nine to three
18:34
point defense, top three pick and roll defense, as well, top ten
18:38
transition defense. So really, all the ways that the Bucks like to play
18:42
they limit. So I mean, obviously Giannis's matchup proof he can get it
18:47
going in any matchup, but I think at eleven K, I'll just take
18:52
my chances and try to build in the midsire a little bit. I really
18:56
don't like this matchup for Daman Liward either. He's played much better. It
18:59
got kind of the shooting slumb score twenty seven and twenty nine in back to
19:02
back games. But the Cavaliers are literally the best team in pick and roll
19:07
defense, and that's where Dame is going to get most of his offensive going.
19:11
So I think that he's he's a bad at eight point six K.
19:14
I like Jared Allen in the spot too. He's been awesome since the Darris
19:18
Garland Evan and Mobile injury. He's seen the tick up in his touches and
19:23
usage. Playmaking has been there much more, has seen uptick in his assist
19:27
numbers, and last time he faced off against Milwaukee went for had his best
19:30
game of the season, went for thirty twelve and six and forty minutes for
19:33
sixty DK points. I think that if you can say out of foul trouble
19:37
since he's gonna be guarding Giannis. He has a really big upset here at
19:41
eight point one K and I like him a lot, not really looking to
19:45
get to like Middleton or brook Lopez. I think that they're kind of just
19:48
okay as like last man in type things, but not really looking to get
19:51
there. I think that Malik Beasy has a little bit more upside then the
19:55
industry will be projecting for him. He's going to see Downovan Mitchell defense,
19:59
and Mitchell's probably with the Cavaliers weakest guard or weakest defender, been seeing more
20:03
minutes. Who got to forty five minutes last game. So I think that
20:07
he's He's okay, probably the second best play on the buck side of things,
20:11
but yeah, much more interest on the Cavaliers side of this game.
20:17
Yeah. I like Jared Allen as well. Jordan like Jared Allen to d
20:19
Mitch, I do like like I said, I think we're on the same
20:22
page. Probably not getting up to Giannis unless some of this value opens up.
20:26
Andrew, I'll get to your point in a second, but Isaac,
20:29
I do want to talk about him. But I guess on the point about
20:32
injuries, any of these few takes Brunson, Luca Lebron, Drew Holliday,
20:37
Porzingis, and any of those that you think are very well or like fifty
20:41
to fifty or that one of them could miss, or do you expect all
20:44
of them to play? Did you read the list again one more time?
20:48
Luca Brunson, Lebron, Drew Porzingis, and so I think there's a good
20:55
chance pretty much all of them are in. I think that ant Is probably
20:59
the most likely to sit, just with its being an Eastern Conference matchup versus
21:03
a terrible team and they're on a back to back. But I do think
21:06
that there's a chance that one or two of the guys from Boston sit just
21:10
they're obviously looking to get guys dates off, kind of stacked with them.
21:14
So I think that there's a chance that like Porzingias and White puts it or
21:18
something like that. Yeah, I mean, we're gonna get to that game
21:21
sixteen point favorites, and then we'll talk about Isaac in the SEC because I
21:25
want to bring that up four point spread Bucks Cavso do you have any lean
21:27
there? And we're not betting all the time, but any thoughts, I'm
21:33
in a I'm in California, So I don't really dabble in betting that much.
21:37
Unfortunately. Yeah, maybe it's I can dabble, and it's still it's
21:41
a tough market out there. I try to pick my spots. I stick
21:44
to what I feel comfortable in that CFS and then so on the Orlando side,
21:48
Ingles, we missed it. Jonathan Isaac, I said, I put
21:52
him in the same boat as Joe Ingles, like if value opens up,
21:56
his ownership will go down. But it's I'm his minutes aren't secure. All
22:00
everything you said I think is pretty accurate. But he is getting ownerships.
22:03
I do want to bring that up with your thoughts. Yeah, no,
22:06
same same thoughts as you would definitely look to get away from it. They're
22:10
they're being very cautious with him and his his menage. Just with the injury
22:15
history of Jonathan Isaac, I think that he's a pretty big piece of their
22:18
long term future, so I don't think that they're really going to be extending
22:22
him anytime soon. He is a beast though most definitely great defender, and
22:26
then is a matchup good for any three point shooters on the cast. So
22:33
the Bucks have actually been much better for against the three point shooters this year.
22:38
They're actually worse with their rim defense. Have the numbers here, if
22:44
you give me one second, their bottom eleven in rim defense and they are
22:48
top eight in three point defense. Good stuff for real, good stuff,
22:52
man, man, Let's keep it rolling. Next game, honestly, big
22:56
spread. San Antonio Spurs Boston Celtics two thirty eight total. Well, Boston
23:00
favored by sixteen. This is when we're talking. Boston side. Drew questionable,
23:04
perzingis questionable, White questionable. They're gonna mop these Spurs that can take
23:08
a day off. I think that makes a lot of sense. Seven thirty
23:12
Eastern games, so hopefully we get it before seven eastern. But that's another
23:17
reason. In Minnesota Detroit the pieces will be relatively low owned. We don't
23:21
think you should jam it. Spurs side Zach Collins is out nothing after that,
23:26
easiest fade on the slide for me. Eight games late, make it
23:29
a seven games late. Do you see any Actually, I guess you talk
23:32
about the injuries, like, if two of these guys are out, would
23:34
you play Tatum when you play Brown, et cetera. If all of them
23:37
in, I think you can agree or you're on the same page. That
23:40
you probably would just completely fade this game. But if not, who are
23:42
some of your favorites? Maybe I'm wrong a little bit more interested in this
23:47
game than you do. I mean, obviously from the Celtics side, I
23:49
really like the spot for Jaylen Brown here. I mean obviously not just graversus
23:55
Spurs their terrible defense, but when you talk about just the price guy between
24:00
Tatum and Jalen Brown being fifteen hundred dollars, kind of similar to like Tree
24:03
Young and Dejoon say Murray, I will definitely side with with Jalen Brown.
24:07
I think this is kind of the matchup that he could thrive in. These
24:11
Spurs are a struggling transition defense, and statistically speaking, Jalen Brown is the
24:15
best transition scorer in the league, so I think that he's kind of due
24:18
for an eruption spot here. This seems also fourth worst in DVP to shooting
24:22
guards. I think that he's got a good amount of upside at AK obviously
24:27
would definitely be better if multiple of these Celtics miss, but I think even
24:33
if they were all to be in, I think he's got a good amount
24:34
of upside. He's projecting as a pretty positive value right now in our projections,
24:40
Yeah, I don't think that this is not the game. Obviously a
24:42
great match up for Tatum, but big spread. I could see him kind
24:45
of deferring a little bit to the secondary guys. I think Drew Holiday makes
24:51
some sense to six point one K really really cheap for him, great matchups
24:55
first bottom three dvp's point guards this season, so he's in a good spot.
25:00
Yeah, really tough to break down tho if you don't really know the
25:03
injury stuff. I think that if two of these guys were to miss,
25:06
like if Porzingis and White were to miss, Drew Holliday would be great,
25:08
Jaylen Brown would be great. If all of them were in then really just
25:12
Jalen Brown for me, slightly more interested in Drew Holiday than like Derek White
25:17
and chrisous Porzingis, but those are be the main guys I would look to
25:19
on the Celtics side. And then obviously Wemby is always gonna make your playerpool.
25:23
He's got the sixty point upside in limited minutes, got up to twenty
25:27
seven minutes last game versus Atlanta, albeit that was a way softer matchup.
25:33
Celtics one of the best interior defense in the league, but he can get
25:36
there in so many different ways that he's always in play to go off regardless
25:41
of matchup. For sure. Yeah, I if all these guys are somehow
25:45
in, I would definitely not have interest in it. Like Jalen Brown,
25:48
I guess you like him, so that means I have some interest. I
25:52
just prefer like Scottie for one hundred more Jared Allen for two hundred more.
25:56
Obviously the position is somewhat different, but if two of these guys are out,
26:00
I can see myself getting maybe as Jaylen Brown. Tatum still probably not
26:04
with like ten two who he's loaded around. I like Lebron probably more,
26:11
Paulo definitely more for cheaper. I like your trade calling tournaments more so.
26:15
I don't think probably Tatum for me. I like the Jaylen Brown more so.
26:18
I am not in the ad ady A tonight did not win a seat
26:21
rio, did you? Or are you in the AD eighty eight? Not
26:25
playing the Aday today tonight? Haven't really been chasing these satellites as much lately.
26:30
Yeah, just I won't be in there. Did I actually kind of
26:33
skipped over Payton Pritcher. I think that he makes a ton of sense to
26:36
as a value option, obviously much more so. Like if any one of
26:41
these starters would have missed, mainly Derek White or Drew Holliday, he would
26:44
get a bigger bump. But he's been a guy that can just absolutely break
26:47
the slate in garbage time, and with us being a sixteen point spread,
26:51
I would take him any day of the week over any of these Orlando values.
26:56
Love it, Love it. They'll definitely be lower on at least as
26:59
of now. If these guys rolled out, though that probably will change a
27:03
couple more games left projections. Finally, right there we go, Boomer got
27:07
the projections up. Head over Shipennation dot Com, fan duel and DraftKings again.
27:11
Use that promo code, Mayo, let's keep it going. Next game
27:14
on the slate Houston Rockets New York Knicks two twenty one total Knicks favored by
27:18
six Houston side, Tarry Easton still out, Nick Side, Jalen Brunson questionable,
27:23
Josh Hart questionable as well. In terms of ownership in this game,
27:30
I don't think we see too much ownership. I think sing Gooon at seven
27:33
point nine k he's definitely gonna be one of the most popular centers again.
27:37
Another good two center night Outside of him, though, I don't think Brunton
27:41
and Randall get too much. I don't know unless Bruntson is out, what
27:45
you think he's gonna be in, I think is pretty much a sangoon or
27:48
buzz for ownership. What do you see in it? Yeah, this is
27:51
a pretty easy game to act. I think I really don't even like the
27:53
spot percent goon as much. Knicks defense has really held up. They've been
27:59
one of the better defense is since Ogub got traded. I think they're ye
28:03
second best overall defense in the last nine games since they got og so they've
28:07
they've been really just rolling defensively. Obviously, both these teams played really slow
28:11
in pace, so there's not gonna be a ton of scoring. The knickt
28:15
takeaway what sign does best, which is like rebounding and offensive rebounding stuff like
28:18
that. Harnstein has been a really solid defender for them. So I just
28:22
don't really think that this is the spot and he's coming in with a good
28:26
amount of ownership, I would look elsewhere. Personally, I think the only
28:30
guy that really have interested in this game, and it's not a ton of
28:33
interest on that. Saying that He's a great play by any means, but
28:36
Jabari Smith probably sees the best matchup. I don't know if he saw the
28:40
clip of Julius Randall last game against the Magic, but he like just gave
28:45
up, Yeah, just gave up to the defense. Was just like pointing
28:48
at guys and turned his back to his defender. It was. It was
28:52
a bad look. So I don't know if it was you know, exhaustion
28:55
or his ink. Somebody said it was like an ankle injury that he's been
28:56
dealing with. But he just shows he's been taking He just shows no effort
29:03
on defense. I think that that could bode well for you guy, Jabari
29:04
Smith Junior. Yeah, so he's really the only guy I don't I don't
29:08
like to spatchup for any of these us expecticularly Yeah. I'm with you,
29:14
not much interest in this game, and you don't like Sangun, he'll be
29:15
pretty popular. I'll get to another game. I don't have interest in Hornet's
29:19
Pelicans two twenty nine total Pelicans favored by eleven and a half. Injury report
29:25
wise, nothing Pelicans side. Brandon Miller questionable for Charlotte, Cord Hayward out,
29:30
Mark Williams still out. I don't have interest in this game again,
29:34
got to cross some off on a bigger slates. Tell me if I'm wrong
29:37
at any play. No, I think you're right. I think that the
29:41
only person in this game that would make my playerpool is Zion six K.
29:45
Good matchup for interior scores. But yeah, little to no interest in this
29:48
game as well. Let's keep it rolling. A couple of games left,
29:52
actually, well, last game again eight games slates the last game. Obviously,
29:57
I appreciate everyone hanging out with us, Is that right? Rio?
30:00
I mean, man, is this show gone that that fast? Yeah?
30:03
I guess apparently it has. Yeah, I'm looking at the slave scene.
30:07
We missed any games, but yeah, right, I was. I was
30:11
making sure if anyone's got some questions or wanting to drop something in, I
30:15
mean, we can answer some too. But hey, weun back to the
30:19
Raptors game too. We finished this one. Or just look at the projection
30:22
see if anything has has changed us much. That sounds good. We'll do
30:26
that. Yeah, any questions or something, but we're not gonna waste your
30:30
time. We'll talk. Oops, want to have some fun too, We
30:32
can talk, but let's get going. Last game Dallas Mavericks, Los Angeles
30:36
Lakers two forty three total. Big Boy Lakers are favored by four injury reporting
30:41
this one. Dallas Luca is questionable, Josh Green is out. Lakers side
30:45
Lebron questionable, Cam Reddish outs. I think Lebron again, we're assuming these
30:52
are Lebron plays, We're assuming Luca plays. I think a D is popular.
30:56
I think D'Angelo Russell is popular at six K, so start with them.
31:00
But Bron's still SubTime K. Luca's kind of in that Giannest boat for
31:03
me. I mean he could absolutely nuke, Like, but what number do
31:07
you wish you played him seventy five? Like what are your thoughts to that
31:11
right now? With how the value stands? But break down this one in
31:15
terms of like what you want from him at this price? Yeah, like
31:18
if you didn't play him and he put up seventy, Like, are you
31:21
like, oh, oh, like I'm dead with not necessarily dead, but
31:25
you think he's probably gonna be on the winner? Do you get what I'm
31:26
saying? Yeah? No, I don't think that. I really don't think
31:30
that seventy could it's guaranteed to win because I think we've seen multiple times this
31:34
year where a guy like Jiannis gets seventy and that if the value plays aren't
31:38
hitting like they are projected ownership wise, then you can make up those points
31:45
for sure with two mintier guys, which is kind of what we've seen more
31:48
this year, just with the pricing being a lot tighter with draftings kind of
31:52
like picking up on these these value plays, so you kind of forced to
31:56
play a minto your build a little bit more. But yeah, I mean,
32:00
I do love the spot for Luca here good price sag under eleven k,
32:05
which I don't we haven't seen sub eleven k for a good while.
32:08
He's been crushing it this year when he does play. That's a good match
32:10
up for him as well. Lakers defense obviously struggles to opposing point guards just
32:15
guard on ball defenders. They're pretty weak in great matchup for three point shooters
32:20
as well. They're dead last and three is allowed per game. Into your
32:23
defense has been good with Anti Davis down their top eight room defense, but
32:27
their bottom four and transition defense. I also think that with the way that
32:30
the Lakers like to play defense in terms of their their pick and roll coverage,
32:35
they play a lot of drop coverage with Anti Davis, so that could
32:37
open up a good amount of three point loops for Luca. But they there
32:44
have been a few times this year where they go up against a star like
32:45
Tyry Salidburn. They did it, Devin Booker, they did it where they
32:49
run a lot of double teams at them. So that could, you know,
32:52
open up more more scoring opportunities for guy, for guys like Tim Hardaway
32:57
Junior, as long as he's out there. Obviously, I think you're really
33:00
playing Tim Hardaway at six point four K. But Kyrie still makes sense nine
33:04
point three K. Even if Luca were to be in. I'm going to
33:07
see the easier matchup of the two. I think Luca would have touring prints
33:12
on him, which you know, he's a solid, solid defender. Kyrie
33:15
probably sees Austin Reeves or Jared Vanderbilt, so I think that, yeah,
33:20
Kyrie makes some sense even if Luca were to be in. Obviously huge boost
33:23
if Luca is out, we won't really get the news. You know,
33:27
this is the latest game on the slate now with the Warriors in Utah.
33:30
Game done, but yeah, good matchup for both these guys and on the
33:37
Lakers side, love the spot for Anthony Davis. He's been been playing really
33:40
well lately, had a couple of down games in terms of scoring, but
33:44
he's seen some more playmakings seen. He had a triple double two games ago,
33:46
five assists last game, should have no issues against Derrek Leiviets and Night
33:52
has not been the best interior defender. So I think that AD's in a
33:54
pretty big spot. Ten K, very reasonable price tag for him. Most
33:59
likely going to get ton of ownership at that price, but I much preferring
34:02
to Lebron for only three hundred dollars more. And yeah, I would love
34:07
to get your your take on these guards because they've been They've been playing Reeves
34:10
and Danger Russell a good bit alongside each other now, so you only it
34:14
normally was a max one situation earlier in the season when they were split in
34:16
the minutes, but the Lakers have been running much tighter with you know them
34:22
kind of slipping in the standings. They need to win some games, so
34:23
they're running a much tighter rotation. I think I sided with D'Angel Russell cheaper
34:29
projects better, does have a chance to lose minutes if they were to go
34:34
more defensive minded with obviously LUKEA and Kyrie out there, but I think the
34:37
matchup is pretty good for del He'll see Kyrie irving on defense, which Kyrie
34:42
is not that good of a defender. So I think that Delo has been
34:45
playing much better lately and he's got some pretty good upside at six K.
34:47
Definitely on your side with the low Reeves has been. I mean, he's
34:52
been efficient, like low thirties minutes, but seventeen fifteen, sixteen percent usage,
34:57
thirty, twenty seven, twenty four. Definitely prefer D Low. He's
35:00
gonna be more popular, but I think he's totally a solid play and I
35:04
much prefer Ad to Lebron too. Again, that's where ownership goes in this
35:07
game. You can maybe mix in a Trey Young. There's a for fading
35:12
Orlando stuff like Orlando, and some of these guys will probably be a popular
35:15
pairing right now. Again, if any Q tag does change, and we
35:19
expect probably Celtics, I'm assuming at least one of those guys sits, which
35:23
maybe change stuff around a little bit. But yeah, a D D Russ
35:29
Luca. I do prefer Luca to Gianni's fight to pick, do you?
35:35
Yeah? I think so? Yeah, I mean, it's obviously close,
35:37
Like these guys are superstars, we'd be lying if we were very confident.
35:40
I'm not that, Like, I'm not putting my house on that by any
35:44
means or something, but I would pick Luca. Yeah, I didn't want
35:47
to mention this pyrogots to mentioned Christian Wood. Yeah, he's been he's been
35:51
playing well lately, coming off the bench. They are with Cam Redschield.
35:54
That kind of benefited him more. He's you know, the minutes, I've
35:58
been up and down some fourteen minutes. Last game, we'll put up twenty
36:00
seven DK points. I've been listening to him in a sleep plan pretty much
36:04
every day now, just knowing that the Lakers are running a tighter rotation.
36:07
So I think that he makes senses of value for sure. I mean I
36:12
prefer him at a little much less ownership than all of these magic guys.
36:20
Obviously cheaper, different positional stuff, but I'd much rather find the money to
36:22
get to Christian Wood. Yeah, he'll be I mean, he'll be very
36:27
very little on but that's values tough people are going Orlando. That's some other
36:30
pivots. The real gave you. That is all eight games. I'm gonna
36:35
scroll down some people in chats and we can wrap it up after that.
36:37
It was quick. If anyone has questions, start dropping them conscious what's going
36:42
on seeing here a lot? Hope everything go well, goes fast, and
36:45
both of you say you do not have interest in almost every game. Hey,
36:47
we make this late, try and make it easy for you. We're
36:50
gonna we're not gonna give you all the like. If we don't like someone,
36:52
we're not gonna say we like him. If we like other people more
36:55
want to tell you how it is. You got to make decisions in dfs.
36:59
So yeah, we don't want to waste your time. If we don't
37:00
like a game, we like others more. We'll let you know that.
37:04
What's not going on? Shud Sullivan, who won the Siakam trade, I'll
37:07
throw it to the expert rio on that who he thinks Pacers for sure.
37:10
I mean, Bruce Brown is a really solid just like secondary piece. But
37:17
I mean, I'm not I'm not the biggest fan of Siakam, but obviously
37:21
i'm I'm not an NBA executive, and he was garnering a ton of attention
37:25
for good reason. So I think he definitely makes that team a lot better
37:30
and much more of a contender in the East, and they're already playing really
37:34
well. When they get Helburn back, they'll be be pretty fun to see
37:37
from too, you know, two man perspective with tyres Aaliburn, I think
37:42
they could be pretty good together. Yeah, no, I obviously I think
37:45
Tygers needed another guy. I'm on your side, though I don't Thinkam's like,
37:50
I don't know, He's definitely a tier below and we're just talking superstars.
37:52
But Bruce Brown a couple first rounds, Like at least first round,
37:57
there's gonna be better than Sakam. I mean, I'll take than know one
37:59
andiaka winning now. So I agree with you there, but I don't think
38:01
it was maybe awful. Do you like anything for tears? I would recommend
38:06
using the projections that we have for tiers and then also like if there's close
38:09
plays, look at the late plan breakdowns there. But definitely check out the
38:14
projections. The glasses make me look even younger. Hey, I'm trying to
38:17
the bootlight glasses behind the screen way too much, especially this time of years
38:22
of trying to wear them a little more, and I can definitely see how
38:24
I look younger, probably like eighteen years old. That is totally fine,
38:29
But I need to send you a quick trip poster. Cannet go with the
38:30
culvers man. Quick trip would look pretty good right there. BUCkies would too.
38:36
But I think that's it for right now. I appreciate that Reeze has
38:38
been awful. Who gets traded next? Any trades? Do you think real
38:43
that you see on the horizon? I mean, yeah, Levine got to
38:47
be out there, but yeah, I do agree with with Boomer. Contract
38:51
is pretty tough to move. Think to Jeante Murray, He's got to be
38:54
a pretty big trade target. I'd be interested to see where he goes.
38:58
Lakers makes a ton of sense that they could packet something over there. It
39:01
doesn't seem like the market is very like very big for dejnt. I was
39:07
seeing like a player in a first round pick and like that's it for him.
39:10
I thought that he's worked a little bit more, you know, really
39:14
solid on ball defender, get it done in multiple ways. I think that
39:17
de Jonte deserves to be on a team where he can be running the points
39:21
again. Been kind of been rough to see him just kind of shift over
39:24
to the shooting guard role. I think he's much better as a point guard
39:29
man him with Wemby. I know it's not gonna happen. Obviously, they
39:31
probably don't get Wemby if they keep Dejonte, But that would have been fun.
39:35
Man, that'd be fun. So Trey Young, like the report came
39:38
out from his camp saying that he would like to play there or play for
39:42
them. It's like, no ship, who wouldn't. Yeah, yeah,
39:45
I want to play with him. Yeah, of course, lob it up
39:47
to him or three. Yeah, exactly. I think that would be pretty
39:52
good for the longevity of Tray Young's career because I don't think that right now
39:57
with him just being like an alpha on a team like the that they're really
40:00
going to be able to go anywhere with that. I think that pairing him
40:04
with a player like a player like that who can take over the game and
40:08
kind of can trick him to defer a little bit makes a ton of sense.
40:13
Yeah. I mean, he one hundred percent knows, like you can't
40:15
be five to ten and run the league anymore. He'll he gets wemb change
40:19
everything helps his game, helps everything. He definitely knows. Thanks Evan,
40:23

40:34
appreciate that. Glad to have you here. Yeah, I missed that.
