All systems going clear the lift? What is going on? Ship in Nation
0:38
YouTube station. We're back Thursday NBA breakdown for this four game slate. I
0:43
got my guy Hoop with me, like always Hoop. Happy Thursday, man,
0:46
How are we doing? How's your PGA? Obviously it's day one.
0:50
You got the get the get the early tilters out of the out of the
0:53
chat right Day one PGA. Never want to look at that, but I
0:57
saw some pretty good ownership on some of the guys that we were on.
1:00
We're here at Shipping Nations, so hopefully that runs out last week's great PGA
1:04
into another week here we continue to smashed. So how are you doing?
1:07
Man? Happy Thursday. Yeah, I'll of us start to the PGA season
1:10
some big wins. Obviously last week in the Streets Live Final Seat, we
1:15
had one hundred thousand dollars win, big big success Week one, obviously,
1:21
hoping to follow it up here week two in the in the PGA streets.
1:26
You know, we've had some big NBA wins. I know you had your
1:30
NHL win the other night, so things are things are looking up and looking
1:34
to build on that momentum. Yeah, looking to build on that momentum.
1:38
NHL gets slept on, but we got the regulars over here. Obviously,
1:42
NHL is not a massive sport outside of maybe NBA All Star Break right when
1:45
all our eyes are kind of on NHL. But contests have been good this
1:49
season. DraftKings has done a good job at improving the prize pools for NHL.
1:53
For all you MLB lovers out there that love baseball, if you want
1:56
a little taste of something until baseball returns, check us out in the NHL
2:00
street. It's very similar sports in terms of how DFS works and kind of
2:05
how you want to approach it. But yeah, I added myself a Great
2:07
Night a little over two grand the other night, and then our member ship,
2:12
the Ship the five Great, five thousand dollars contests the same night as
2:15
well. So content over here has been crushed, crushing. I got you
2:19
locked in there each and every night, and usually I got the content up
2:23
before you even have to look at NBA, so you can lock your NHL
2:27
stuff in and move on to NBA is kind of how I approach it.
2:30
So overall it's been good. As always, we got you covered with each
2:31
and every single sport over here at Ship in Nation. If you are not

2:38
There is no more last last chance to get in the PGA streets.
2:42
That did kick off obviously after the tee off this morning here, but we
2:49
still have the cheapest all in rate. You can use promo codemeo ten get
2:52
you ten percent off the package. We have weekly, monthly, annual,
2:57
or six month package available. And if you are speaking of golf only interested
3:00
in golf, we do have golf only packages available. That's still cheapest all
3:05
in price in the industry for the content and the quality of content is unmatched.
3:08
I think the members can speak for themselves on that. And you can
3:13
see our Twitter right community wins not just max max entry players, not just
3:16
single entry. We got it from all shapes and sizes, all entry fees.
3:21
People win in money every day, so it's awesome to see. And
3:23
speaking of PGA, r C a guy right here, our guy new ins
3:27
in the chat, coming off a big week. He continues to crush every
3:30
slate over here, bat, NBA, freaking NFL, I mean, PGA,
3:36
you name it. He's smashing. So our guy news. What's going
3:38
on? Man? Go collecting here? Mark's in here Thomas. Everybody in
3:43
here. I see a guy Hebrew in the chat talking. He does the
3:46
slate plan over here at NBA for ship at Nation, and he's been amazing.
3:52
Obviously, he's on these shows Tuesday and Wednesday. So we got you
3:54
covered in all angles. But let's jump in Hoop. We got an interesting
3:59
slate here tonight. First game to kick us off is the highest total obviously
4:03
of the top two seeds in the East, right Boston Milwaukee here, Milwaukee
4:08
at home and two forty two and a half is the total and not a
4:13
lot of ownership really going to this game at all. Obviously, we got
4:15
the later game right with Dallas where you run any optimizer right now, Dallas
4:18
is going to be slamming in projections. Obviously, when you take a guy
4:21
like Luca off the court for that team, things are gonna definitely go to
4:27
Obviously, that's the lot of usage price takes haven't reflected, so obviously all
4:30
the chalk is going to Dallas right now. Four or five of these guys
4:33
are getting slammed in just about any optimizer you run. I think it's pretty
4:38
interesting. This first game we're going to talk about here, Hoop is highest
4:42
total on the slate. It's a close spread, right, the two best
4:44
teams in the East. Granted, obviously Boston's very good defensively, but on
4:47
the other end, Milwaukee's not very good defensively. Milwaukee's been playing at a
4:51
high pace. You have interest in this first game, right, massive total,
4:56
not a lot of ownership going to this game. Talk to me,
5:00
honest, you got Jiannis, you got Dame, you got Tatum who's been
5:02
smashing, you got Drew Holliday and the revenge factor there. Both teams pretty
5:05
much fully health healthy outside of Al Horford from the Boston side. But I
5:13
think this is a pretty interesting game to kick us off. Yeah. I
5:15
think the most important part is what you kind of said there at the end,
5:18
where both these teams are pretty healthy and a lot of the price tags
5:23
are up there, which makes it, you know, pretty difficult to get
5:26
exposure to this game. But like I said, it's a two forty five
5:29
total, Huge total should remain close. Milaukee's only favored by two, So
5:33
you know, how do we get exposure here? And that's the difficult question.
5:38
Jannis is sitting at twelve K. Do we have the value to play?
5:42
Honest, Dame is eighty five hundred. It seems like a pretty fair
5:45
price tag for him. That are shown as the top two values in our
5:48
projections. Jason Tatum at ten to two very difficult. So I'm gonna do
5:54
kind of what we did last week on here and just let's run ten teams
5:57
and see how much of this game we get, because I have a feeling
6:00
that we're just not going to get much of this game. Pull it up.
6:04
We got our ten ten teams zero, let's see zero guys from this
6:11
game, and that means ownership in this game is going to be well,
6:15
like you said, a lot of people are going to be going to Dallas
6:16
rightfully, so makes a ton of sense. No, Luca have some Lakers
6:20
guys creeping in there, So if people just come in and kind of just
6:24
run their teams, this game is going to go low on. But on
6:28
the other hand, it is difficult to get to it though, I mean
6:30
it really is, because again, Giannis is twelve, k Tatum is ten
6:33
too. Even some of these other pieces, Derek White's seven to seven,
6:36
Jalen Brown eight to six, porzingis eight to four. There's just no reasonably
6:43
priced viable guys in this game. Chris Middleton seven to eight. You're playing
6:46
a premium basically every step of the way, so it is difficult to get
6:50
exposure to this game. It is what this game is. Seven thirty Eastern
6:57
start time, first game on the slate. Man, I just I guess
7:00
for me, the easiest way to get exposure would would be through Dame at
7:04
eight to five. But it's gonna be tough to play the pieces in this
7:08
game, and they are going to be loan. So if you can find
7:10
a way to do it, I think you're gonna get some low on plays,
7:12
but I will admit it, it is pretty difficult. And again,
7:15
if people are just running projections or just running teams off of projections, they're
7:17
not going to get munch of this game. So it should come in low
7:20
OneD if you can find a way to get there. That's my main take
7:23
with Yeah, that's that's kind of what I'm liking right four games slate.
7:28
You can leverage plays and I get it right, the price points are up,
7:30
but it is a high total. Granted, people are going to look
7:33
at the first matchup right where Boston won. I believe one nineteen one sixteen
7:40
was the score. Giannis was held in check for forty eight point seventy five.
7:45
I believe was the call last time he faced these guys, But that
7:47
was his worst shooting performance of the entire year, and he still almost eclipsed
7:51
fifty fantasy points. He is twelve K. But when we talk about Dallas,
7:57
you have a ton of value on Dallas, right, Jaden Hardy,
8:00
Josh Green, Dwight Powell, Tim Hardaway, the list goes on and on
8:01
for the Dallas value that you can make a Janis work here and just think,
8:07
right, this game should stay competitive. Both these teams want to win,
8:11
right, because it's pivotal going to be coming down the stretch, right
8:15
had to have matchups and seating wise, I think it's an interesting game from
8:18
a low ownership contrarian GPPP standpoint. If you go in there, you run
8:24
projections, you're not going to get a lot of this game. And that's
8:26
one way that that I look at it right being a little bit different.
8:28
So I don't mind a Janis Tatum. I don't mind the Tatum ten two.
8:33
I think that's I mean, eighteen hundred dollars cheaper than Yannis. With
8:37
how Tatum's playing right now is great. I mean sixty fifty five sixty eight
8:41
are the last three games. Now gets a little bit tougher matchup here against
8:46
the interior defense right at Brook Lopez and Giannis inside, but it's still Jason
8:50
Tatum Dame Lillard eight five. I don't love the matchup for Dame, to
8:54
be honest. He's going to get a combo of probably Derek White and Drew
8:56
Holliday right, two good defenders overall on Dame. So it's pretty much Janis
9:01
in this game. I think, I like, I don't mind Giannis,
9:03
and then Porzingis got the day off yesterday. Now he's gonna play here tonight.
9:09
I think he's fine in GPPs. But overall this game is gonna be
9:13
low owned. They're not going to project very well overall. But it's just
9:16
the four game slate. You gotta find maybe one of these studs right to
9:20
differentiate yourself. So I don't hate it from that standpoint. Let's jump into
9:24
this next game here Portland and OKAC. This game starts thirty minutes after that
9:30
first game LOX. In terms of total, two thirty six is the total
9:33
in this one. Thirteen point spread here massive spread from an injury standpoint,
9:41
I don't see too much on on this one. Jabari Walker is questionable.
9:46
That's what I'm seeing right now. You got SGA, you got cheed Hungren,
9:48
who both continue to smash here Anthony Simon's on the other side, what
9:52
do you seeing this one? Portland? Okay? See? Yeah, so
9:56
another big, big total in this game to seven, but obviously most of
10:01
it on the OKC side, as they're favored by by twelve and a half.
10:05
If you look at our projections over here ship at Nation, you see
10:09
not a ton of guys popping as positive value SGA ten to four. Yeah,
10:15
sure, you can definitely get there. You look at his recent game
10:18
logs. I mean he's probably a lock to get you at least fifty.
10:20
Is that enough on the slate? Yeah, it definitely could be four game
10:22
slate Holme Grum at seventy nine hundred, I think he's a fine option.
10:28
Definitely guy that I want some exposure to. And then assignments at seventy four
10:33
somewhat interesting, but it's been kind of all over the map recently. Four
10:37
in twenty one, sixty two, seventeen, twenty five, forty two fantasy
10:41
points, the floors, low, ceilings, high, risky type play Josh
10:46
Giddy sixty four hundred. You know, I think I'd be fine get some
10:50
exposure to him. The one problem is the minutes here. He's just not
10:52
playing a ton of minutes. Obviously, there's some blowout risks of the rest
10:56
of the games on the slate pretty close. You know, the two point
11:01
spread in Milwaukee, four point in Dallas, one in La Okay, see
11:07
twelve and a half point favorites, So they're huge, huge favorites. In
11:09
this game somewhat you know, likely that we see a blowout. So I'd
11:13
be a little cautious with the Portland stuff. The Okay see guys, I
11:18
think are fine options. I just want to kind of re reference the ten
11:22
teams that I ran before and look at it. There's there's only one guy
11:28
showing up here on one team. It's SGA. Let's kind of extend this
11:30
out. Let's do twenty teams. See if we start to get anything else
11:33
from this game or the previous game in there, right it's running now,
11:39
maybe usually it's a lot quicker. All right, here we go get ten
11:43
in out of the twenty fifteen and come on, come on, come on,
11:52
only wants to give US fifteen. All right, there's our twenty.
11:54
So now let's see if we get anything else coming from this game of the
11:58
previous game. Previous game, Lillard shown up in just five so on one
12:01
team that's it in this game Home Groun five SGA five sharp five. So
12:11
I mean, again, another game where someone comes in and just runs teams
12:13
based on projections. Not going to be a lot of ownership in this game.
12:16
SGA is shown up around twenty percent, everyone else essentially a ten or
12:22
below. So it's another game that should be low on. If somehow Portland
12:24
does keep this competitive. There are guys on both sides that can get the
12:28
job done. But again it's looking like another game where we're not going to
12:31
see a ton of ownership. Yeah no, that's the reason I like these
12:35
first two games. Granted this game on a large slate, you likely cross
12:37
off right double digits spread here, but it's only a four games slate.
12:41
I absolutely love chet Holngram in the spot. I think he's one of the
12:45
best stand that plays on the entire slate. Seven to nine for him,
12:48
I mean he's been smashing forty nine and a half last game against Washington here,
12:52
I mean I think you could see a fifty spot here for chet.
12:56
I love the matchup. I love the spot for him. I really like
12:58
that seven to nine is an all right price point. I'm seeing five to
13:03
ten percent ownership, probably five to eight percent ownership somewhere in that ballpark SGA
13:07
projecting to be pretty high owned. He's been very good here, gets obviously
13:13
a good match up here against Portland. Blow up concern is a is a
13:16
concern, right with him being the most expensive guard on the slate, and
13:20
you have to put him up against guys like Jason Tatum right in that first
13:24
game. I don't mind if you're approaching either one of these first two games
13:28
to grab a couple of pieces right and hope the game stays close and approach
13:31
it differently, especially that Boston Milwaukee game. If you're playing it, grab
13:35
a couple of pieces and play play like the game playing to the spread right,
13:39
it plays over the total. It's a close game, maybe you get
13:41
overtime, right, and that's where those projections just can't project for overtime games
13:46
or things like that. So grabbing a couple of pieces from these these two
13:50
games, these first two games, I think is interesting because most teams are
13:54
going to be backloaded with that New York Knicks Dallas game and then the Lakers
13:56
Phoenix game. It's just how projections are going, just how the slate shapes
14:01
up. So I don't mind that. One guy to pay attention to is
14:05
Shandon Sharp. He could possibly get a spot start here and potentially takes Scoot
14:09
Henderson's starting spot in the lineup. Obviously Scoots projected to start right now,
14:13
but just pay attention to that. Think if Shandon's Sharp does draw the start
14:18
here, I think at fifty four hundred, he becomes a nice value play
14:20
there. He's gonna chuck the basketball, So I don't hate that SGA fine
14:24
spend up, but pretty much my two favorite plays in this game is definitely
14:28
chet Honger and by far, and then I don't mind Shade and Sharp,
14:33
especially if he gets to start in this one. And then the Jabari Walker
14:37
news is actually bigger than it seems if he misses. You got to have
14:41
interest in du Operath here at fifty seven hundred, likely going to handle all
14:46
the center work for the most part, and he'd be a fine option in
14:50
an Okay matchup here against Okay. See, So I think there's some interesting
14:54
plays here, definitely the game that has the biggest blowout risk on the On
14:58
the entire slate, there's only four spots to go to, and I definitely
15:01
have some interest in this one. Yeah, it should be low owed.
15:07
Again, that's the main thing these first two games. I ran these teams
15:09
here and man, just nothing is popping with substantial ownership, right exactly.
15:16
That's I mean, that's just game. That's just standard DFS game theory.
15:20
Right. It's a four game slate. It'd be different if it was a
15:22
thirteen game slate, right or a twelve games slate where you could cross both
15:26
these games out. Right, there's only four games to choose from, and
15:28
you know where everyone's are going. It's focused on these last two games that
15:33
we're about to talk about. So do you think these first two games are
15:35
definitely important? Especially for tournaments tonight? And that's going to be kind of
15:41
the stance that I'm taking. Get some exposure to these first two games and
15:43
just differentiate my builds and take a chance. It is kind of how I'm
15:46
gonna approach it. But let's talk about the game that everybody wants to talk
15:50
about here from an ownership standpoint, this entire Dallas team is going to be
15:56
very very owned. I mean, Seth Curry, Josh Green, Eric Jones,
16:00
Dwight Powell, Kyrie Hardaway, Jayden Hardy, all these guys are gonna
16:03
get a ton of ownership. Obviously, Kyrie at nine k flat becomes an
16:07
amazing play. Right with no Luca, Kyrie already was looking like old time
16:11
Kyrie sick with Luca on the court. Now you take Luke away, Kyrie's
16:15
gonna get his thirty probably upper thirties minutes low for basically thirty eight to forty
16:19
minutes probably here if this game stays competitive, Kyrie nine k obviously great play.
16:26
But talk about this one who obviously the most important game on the slate
16:29
in terms of where everyone's going is. This is where they're grabbing their value
16:33
and and the Studs Julius Randall gonna be Chalky, Kyrie Irving gonna be gonna
16:37
be owned, Jalen Brunson gonna get some ownership. So obviously a very very
16:41
good game to target for DFS. Yeah, I mean, this is the
16:44
one where there's gonna be obviously the most ownership No no Luca obviously in the
16:48
price tags in this one are just super super low. I mean even on
16:52
the on the knick side, it's like Randall at eighty eight, Brunson at
16:56
eighty seven. I mean, they're not in that ten k range where some
16:59
of the guys from the previous game were. So you already know everyone's coming
17:02
here for Dallas stuff, and that just means people are naturally going to go
17:07
to the New York Knicks stuff. And this is one of those questions like
17:10
how many guys too many type situation. It's tough on the slate without much
17:15
value to not come here, like you're almost forced to come here in some
17:18
capacity. And look at some of these guys. You have cheap guys on
17:22
the Mavericks, which we just don't have a lot of cheap guys on the
17:25
slate. Jaden Hardy thirty seven hundred, Tim Hardaway Junior fifty three hundred,
17:30
Derek Jones Junior forty nine, Dwight Paul forty two. They're just by far
17:33
the best source of value on the slate. Look to the knick side,
17:37
Randall under nine k, Brunton under nine k. They have the big time
17:41
upside Hartnstein sixty five. Go to the teams that we ran. This is
17:47
twenty teams. Hardley showed up on every team. Hardy showed up on every
17:52
team, Kyrie showed up on ninety five percent of teams, Dwight Paul seventy
17:56
percent, Derek Jones Junior sixty and even showing up at sixty percent because we
18:02
just don't have value on the slate. Julius Randall shown up on ninety five
18:07
percent of teams. Josh Hart is a value twenty Brunton only on ten teams.
18:11
But this is a spot where Everden's going to go. And honestly,
18:15
it's just tough to avoid. Even if you don't want to come here,
18:18
even if you don't want to be on the Dallas quote unquote shock, you
18:22
almost have to because the nature of the slate. If you put all these
18:25
teams back in and just like sort by value to see we just don't have
18:30
cheap plays outside of this game. I mean, you're taking massive risks if
18:33
you want to avoid this one. Like where are the value plays outside of
18:37
the Dallas guys on the slate? There's nothing that's popping. So I just
18:42
think by necessity, you have to come here in some capacity, maybe look
18:47
to you know, build your teams a little bit differently, if possible.
18:51
If you are heavy on this game, those other two or three pieces should
18:53
be maybe lower owned options. But I just feel like you have to be
18:56
on Dallas because there's just no other cheap option and John the Slay and then
19:00
you know Randall and Brunson. Obviously, if you are heavy Dallas, you
19:04
want some exposure to those guys. So I don't know, it just seems
19:07
like a very tough spot to avoid on this four game slate. Yeah,
19:11
I'm with you, very hard to ignore this spot. Kyrie is gonna get
19:15
OG's defense likely here. The Knicks have won every game since Og Crack made
19:21
the starting lineup since they made that trade, and have been, I believe
19:25
over the last week the best defensive team in the entire NBA here. So
19:29
it is a tough matchup for Dallas with this defensive front, with this new
19:32
look Knicks team here who looked very good since they made those trades right and
19:37
got Dante and Og over here. So it is a tough matchup. But
19:41
again, minutes lead to opportunity. Kyrie, you have to expect if this
19:45
game stays close, he's gonna play just about every minute he can handle.
19:48
At nine K, so I do like obviously Kyrie despite the tough matchup here.
19:53
Last time, in the spot that Luca missed, Kyrie was flirting with
19:59
a triple double. I believe he had twenty plus points nine rebounds or nine
20:03
assists in in five rebounds something like that close to I mean he could see
20:07
the triple double in his site. So nine k obviously Kyrie there. Jayden
20:11
Hardy I think is pretty much a stone cold lock for me. At the
20:15
value. It's just hard to ignore that. It's it can be fragile here,
20:18
but thirty seven hundred going to get the start, likely going to play
20:22
blowout time as well if this game does blow out garbage minutes. So at
20:26
thirty seven hundred here, I think that's obviously good chuck to eat. A
20:30
couple other interesting plays in this game. On the knick side. Dante DiVincenzo
20:36
at five to one. He hasn't shown a ceiling yet for these knicks,
20:38
but I do think he has it in him. I mean he had.
20:42
He did go for sixty two back in December, right, So I don't
20:48
hate Dante Devincenzo at five to one. He should be pretty low owned on
20:52
the nixt piece should be able to score and do some scoring there, so
20:56
I don't hate that. In terms of the Dallas piece, really like j
21:00
Hardy, really like Dawhite Powell, both of those guys. Isaiah Hartenstein gets
21:03
a good match up here. He's fairly in check. In terms of ownership.
21:07
I think the ownership is gonna go to Randall, gonna go to Jalen
21:10
Brunson. So I don't mind a Hartenstein, Dante DiVincenzo Nicks pieces. I
21:15
think both of those are fine. Kyrie obviously great play for me as well,
21:19
and then Julius Randal I think is fine, But I don't hate jumping
21:23
over to Isaiah Hartenstein at six' five six point five k. He's been
21:27
playing great right now. I know our guy Hebrew talked about him the other
21:32
day on the show that he's just been picking up a lot more stocks and
21:36
rebounds and things like that. So I like Isaiah Hartenstein quite a bit at
21:40
sixty five hundred, but obviously very very good game. All the ownership's likely
21:45
going, I mean right now as it stands on the Dallas side, tough
21:48
matchup, but again minutes lead opportunity. Luca's out that's a lot of uses
21:52
to go around on this team, and some of these guys are gonna play
21:56
no matter what, like a Jayden Hardy in my opinion, So definitely like
21:59
this spot quite a bit. Yeah, I like that Hertenstein call. I
22:02
mean, look at look what this guy's been doing lately, you know,
22:03
thirty four, forty four, thirty nine, forty seven, just a nice
22:07
floor, especially for four games late. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, I
22:11
see our guy Roth in the chat talking about Hardy projecting for ninety plus percent
22:18
ownership on some other sites across the industry. Yeah, he's gonna be I
22:21
mean, he's gonna be basically a chalk piece. So at that point,
22:25
I mean, yeah, you can always flirt when the guy's at high hon
22:27
Yah, ninety seven, there's no way he's ninety seven. But he's gonna
22:30
be very highly owned, right, I could see eighty plus percent, but
22:34
I mean it's hard cheap value. A lot of times the NBA is value
22:37
for a reason. I believe he started last week in a similar situation,
22:41
went for thirty thirty plus or a forty five. Excuse me, he played
22:47
thirty two minutes last game. Obviously it was a different matchup right against Portland.
22:49
But when he drew the start and played the minutes, I mean,
22:52
you see what this kid can do. I mean he almost had a triple
22:56
double, nine rebounds, nine assists in nineteen points. If Kyrie, Kyrie
23:00
has the OG defensive assignment, right, I mean, some of these other
23:07
guys are gonna have to score. So Jayden Hardy I think is good.
23:08
Shock. Don't think you need to get too cute there and contemplate fading.
23:14
To be honest with you, Let's talk about the last game on the slate
23:18
here, Phoenix in the Lakers two thirty eight total, one point spread.
23:22
In this one, I think it's a pretty good game. Obviously, you've
23:26
got Anthony Davis Lebron both coming questionable like they do every single game. But
23:30
basically that I look at it as a probable tag just because they come in
23:33
with that same designation every game. Cam Rennish is also questionable. Not a
23:37
ton of ownership going to this game. It is a pretty decent total,
23:42
pretty decent or pretty close spread. Obviously a lot of these guys are are
23:47
basically fully healthy. Though, do you have any interest in this late night
23:49
hammer that starts an hour and a half after that New York Knicks Dallas.
23:53
I like to get some exposure here to thirty eight total Lakers favored by one.
24:00
Again, you just kind of run into the same sort of issue.
24:03
It's somewhat hard to get to these price tags. You're gonna have to play
24:07
the Dallas cheapiest to get to a d Lebron Durant. You know, Booker
24:11
plays like that. I think Beal is interesting at seven thousand flat. I
24:17
mean playing a lot of minutes, which is which is nice, and the
24:19
last couple of games haven't been good, but I think this is a really
24:22
good spot for him. A lot of people maybe go more stars and scrubsy
24:26
if possible, but you know, Beal at seven k I think is a
24:30
very interesting option. Nurkic is another not cheap but mid range option at sixty
24:37
eight reeves as well. On those twenty teams that we ran, you see
24:41
Anthony Davis showed up in like forty of them, Lebron thirty five, Christian
24:45
Wood thirty, Beal got in at fifteen. So you know, it looks
24:52
like our projections kind of like getting exposure to these Lakers guys a little bit.
24:56
And yeah, I mean you want some here for sure. You know,
25:00
Booker at eighty nine Hunters stands out as a good play. But again,
25:06
this game is gonna get way more ownership than these first two games,
25:10
the first two games on the slate that we talked about. It is just
25:11
a challenging slate just based on the fact that there's just not much value at
25:17
all, and the value that is there everyone's gonna go to just because of
25:21
necessity, and there's just not much. So it does make it difficult to
25:25
get to these higher end plays. You know, A D and Lebron are
25:30
labels questionable. I fully expect them them to play, but yeah, I
25:34
mean definitely want some exposure here on the Lakers side. I think it's got
25:37
to be the big dogs. On the Phoenix side, I think and get
25:41
away with gold like Beal or Nurkices you guys, Yeah, no great breakdown
25:47
here. I'm with you. I like a D, but I also like
25:51
Austin Reeves here for the Lakers in this spot in all right price take at
25:56
six y nine, he's shown a ceiling. Don't think a lot of ownership
25:59
goes his way. He's not projecting the greatest, but I mean he's showing
26:03
fifty point upside forty mid forties. I think you could do that here in
26:08
this matchup a little bit cheaper if you can't get up to ad or Lebron.
26:12
So I don't mind the Austin Reeves. Nurkic was a hero for me
26:17
earlier this week. I like going right back to the well with nirk.
26:18
He was hurtful last night or last game, but before that he won me
26:22
all the money, so or on Sunday night, excuse me. I like
26:26
going right back to NRK here in this spot. So Nurkic Reeves AD for
26:33
me are kind of the main place. Obviously, you can always play a
26:36
Devin Booker as a contrarian spind up option. It's just tough with KD back
26:41
right and those price points. I mean Kdie's ninety six hundred, Booker's eighty
26:45
nine hundred beals in there as well. At seven K. There's just a
26:49
lot of miles to feed there. So I like Nurkic the most for the
26:53
Phoenix side Lakers is AD and Reeves for me in this one as well.
27:00
But I think that's a pretty good breakdown. Hoop. We broke down all
27:04
four games on the slates obviously the most important game of the slate. You're
27:08
gonna see a lot of teams that have I mean seven, probably seven or
27:15
eight players from that New York Knicks Dallas game. I don't think it'll be
27:18
crazy to see a lot of teams tonight in contest have at least six or
27:22
seven guys from that New York Knicks Dallas game. You're gonna have to get
27:26
contrarian at a spot or two. I like some of those early plays right
27:30
that Portland Okay, see game a little bit at the Boston Milwaukee game,
27:33
just because a lot of rosters aren't going there. So I think we broke
27:36
it down pretty good as always. Hit that like button, hit that subscribe
