  Speaker 1: Yah, all systems don't clear the left?
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: What is going on? Everybody? We're back for a Thursday
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: edition of the NBA Show. Uh. Nice to get back
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: on with my guy Matt here. I was gonna say, uh,
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: don't have a lot of people in the live chat,
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: but our guy Ricky Rose broke the eye. So what's up, Ricky?
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: I say, it's in here, Para Bay always in here.
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: What's going on, guys? Uh, Matt'll bring in. How you
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: doing today?
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: I'm good man, excited to get out here and talk
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: some hoops to do. Even though, as we talked about
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: a little bit before, the DK Contact contest right now
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: are depressing. So MLB has taken over full time really,
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: and NBA contests until the playoffs at least are a
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: little bit muted, but there's still money to be wanted.
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: I'm excited to talk to slate with you.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, how about that MLB slate today? Yeah? One game
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: starting at uh, I mean it was eleven or eleven
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: fifteen my time, and then the next games I'll start
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: for like seven hours later. So I don't I don't
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: think I've ever seen anything like that for MLB. It's
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: pretty pretty odd in this first game is busting in
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: a pretty big way. Unfortunately, I did play a lot
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: of case, guys.
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, unfortunately, I played a lot of minutes. I've had
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: one mine up an I s tack Minnesota, So we're
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: in the same boat there kind of. So yeah, I
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: don't like to see it. But at least there's a
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: night MLB saying yeah, weird, weird schedule today in the
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: base fall streets. So I don't know if they originally
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: had this slate plan. I know the White Socks we're
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: supposed to have their home opener today and that got postponed,
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: So maybe that that messed with the slate. I don't know,
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: but yeah, real funky.
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I know this is the NBA show. But I'll
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: just say anytime that the Royals are playing at home,
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna be sacking up both teams there because they
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: made those big changes to the to the field, and
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: I feel like there's gonna be a ton of run
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: scored there, especially as we get into the hotter months.
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: It's gonna be it's gonna be like Core as many.
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: I'll say, we got a couple of people filing in here.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: A guy wins a lot, William Jake Swales. Yeah, I
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: guess right before he came on, or right as we
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: came on, Wemby got ruled out. I guess we'll get
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: to that when we get there. But that's changes up
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: a lot. I was pretty excited about that game, but
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: I guess it kind of makes sense why the Spurs
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: were only favored by two or sorry, three and a half.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: And then I guess that's kind of where it's gonna stay.
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: But yeah, Wenby is out tonight. But yeah, I guess,
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: from like an overall slate standpoint, what are you seeing here?
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: We have two games starting at seven eastern, then there's
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: a two and a half hour gap, and we have
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: four games in that six thirty to seven thirty or sorry,
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: I guess nine to thirty eastern ten thirty eastern time
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: slid so interesting in the sense that we haven't had
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: a lot of slates like this much the season. But
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: I feel like a lot of the appeal from fantasy
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: perspective does come from those later games. So what are
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: you see here? From just a slate overview standpoint?
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: I agree with you. I think the slate over you
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: for me, starts and as with Portland, they look like
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: the team of the slate. No Jeremy Grant here. They
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: got guys that already look good. They still look good,
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: really good spot against the Pelicans, and now the Spurs
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: are gonna look really good because you take Wemby out,
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: and obviously it's gonna make everyone else look better. Not
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: a good spot for them, but their prices aren't conducive
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: for Wemby being out, So Portland and the Spurs, man,
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: I think it's gonna be really really hard to get
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: away from from those two spots as a kind of
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: majority of any type of like Handbilt lineup or anything
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: like that.
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll just say it's a pretty odd time for
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: Wenby to take off because he actually was making a
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: pretty big dent in the odds for the MVP, and
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: this would have been a pretty good game. I mean,
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: he came off like two big forty point double doubles,
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: and then Shay is on ESPN. It's the the ESPN
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: game time against the Lakers, who are top three in
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: the West. So I feel like Wenby probably should have
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: played if he really cared about the MVP, but I
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: don't know. It's also there what two games back on
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: the Spurs to get up to first, so I definitely
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: think that I don't know, this is kind of kind
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: of an odd time for him to take off, but
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: say it was some few more people before we get started.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: Here our guy Philly, what's going on? Tank is in here,
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: and our guy Scott is in here. I let's jump
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: into the first game on the slate. It is the
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: Minnesota Timberwolves at the Detroit Pistons, just Ant and Sasser
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: a questionable tonight. I would expect ant to play on
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: a similar minutes restriction as last game. Kind of talked
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: about that one where he was he basically can't miss
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: any more games to be eligible for any sort of awards,
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: and only played twenty three minutes in that game, actually
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: didn't start because he was taking a shit, so Mike
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: calmly started over him and then he ended up getting
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: the game. Maybe that took away a couple of minutes
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: off his rotation, but I still am expecting a pretty
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: tight minutes restriction on him. Maybe he gets up to
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: like twenty eight if he plays. But the questionable tag
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: I think is a little bit discouraging for that point. Yeah,
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: Detroit's favorite by three. Here two defensive my teams facing
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: off kind of expect this game to play closer to
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: the under To me, feels like more of an avoid
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: or like a max one situation on both sides. But
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: I'll let you talk through this one. What you're seeing
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: here in Minnesota at Detroit, No.
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: We're seeing it similarly. This isn't a game I want
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: to go hard after him. From a DFS perspective, I
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: guess the appeal is should be a close game. You
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: got good players on both sides. But other than that, like,
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: there's nothing here from a pricing perspective that looks great.
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: Tobias Harris probably the closest thing to that you projects
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: for close to thirty Fantasy played fifty nine hundred. He's
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: getting ownership, So I'm not I'm not ever in love
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: with playing Tobias Harris into ownership. But it's not like
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: enough ownership where I think you have to get away
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: from him. He's just a play for me. Dannis Jenkins.
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: We've seen him have upside at this tag. It's not
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: a good spot. Like again, there's nothing really here that
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: I would be prioritizing if I were only playing one lineup.
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: Harris is a filler piece sure. Other than that, I
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: don't really see it from a multi entry perspective, it
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: sounds like you don't want to get much from this
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: game either.
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I think there's obviously a case to
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: be made for Minnesota guys if Ant were to miss,
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: but I do expect them to play. I mean, we
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: saw Io kind of fine regardless of an plays had
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: the massive triple double against Dallas, so take it with
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: a grain of salt. But he's been playing great. Probably
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: the best trade deadline pickup. Definitely a huge especially when
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: you take away J McDaniel's replacing him with I would
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: assume it was a obviously not I mean, he's probably
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: not as good of a defender as Jayden, but definitely
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: maybe more offensive juice. But yeah, just a really good
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: pickup by them. I think like Nas at five point
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: six hypothetically isn't a good spot. Same thing for Dante.
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: Like you want off ball shooters against Detroit because their
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: room defense is so good and they do kind of
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: leave these secondary options open a little bit. So I
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: have those guys on my radar, but it doesn't seem
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: super appealing. I was thinking through the Dennis Jenkins, which
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: I guess apparently it's pronounced Dennis. Yeah, I think it's
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: Dennis Jenkins. And also apparently he's named after his grandmother,
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: so that's kind of interesting. Might be the only NBA
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: player that's named after his grandmother.
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: Laughing, and then I laughed again, So my bad.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: That's all good. I just had to throw out the
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: little the lower behind Dennis Jenkins name. But yeah, I
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: do like attacking wolves with lead handlers, and like this
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: would have been a spot where I would have had
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: interest in kid and just thinking through it, Like I
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: like Daris Garland a lot in the Lake game, especially
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: now that Wemby is out, But I mean he's fourteen
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: hundred dollars more, and like hypothetically him and Danis Jenkins
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: have the same upside. I would say, like maybe maybe
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: Garland's a little bit more, but like from a role standpoint,
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: pretty comparable.
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: You've made the point. You've made the point often that
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: like Dennis as basically the same role as Cade, Like
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: he's not Kade, but he has that kid type role.
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: Go ahead, Yeah, I mean it's all the tracking stats
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: would definitely kind of verify that really good touch time,
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: there's capable of doing a little bit of everything. So
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: I do think that if I was choosing between Garland
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: and Dennis, I'd probably go with Jenkins just I mean,
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: he's cheaper and if you need that salary, that makes
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: a lot of sense. But yeah, I like both those
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: guys tonight. But I agree with you Tobias Harris kind
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: of a fringe play. You never really getting like a
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: great performance out of him, but like maybe thirty five
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: is enough from him on the slate. Overall, a pretty
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: unappealing game, So I think we can move on to
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: the Suns at Charlotte, and I think this one should
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: be pretty fun. I kind of like the way that
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: these teams match up close spread here modest team or
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: a game total. I think it's actually on the lower
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: end of things, but probably not that great for DFS.
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: I would say more of like a viewership standpoint, this
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: game should be fun. Sons are getting healthy at the
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: right time. Mark Williams was upgraded to questionable attendant shoot
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: a rounds. I would expect him to be back kind
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: of right on the right on the timeline of when
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: he was supposed to be returning, And it comes at
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: a good time because the interior defense and the rebounding
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: has been somewhat of an issue for the Suns. As
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: of late, both teams have been playing really good defense.
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: Though I think the Hornets are six the Sons are
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: eighth over the last two weeks. Hornets are a massive
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: three point threat. They ranked first an offensive three point frequency.
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: Sons are not that far behind their six and mentioned
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: it on the last show, I believe on Tuesday when
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: the Sun's played and just seeing how things would shake
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: out with Dylan Brooks back, we didn't get a clear
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: picture because Brooks was in a lot of foul trouble
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: in that game, but obviously Jalen Green lost a lot
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: of minutes and that was more so to like Royce O'Neill.
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: So I just think that this team is closer to
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: a stay away now. I think that Booker is the
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: only guy I'm really considering and actually think that his
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: matchup is fine. Like, I don't think that the Hornets
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: are such a lockdown They just play good team defense,
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: but they don't necessarily have like that lockdown defender that
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: can sit down a guy like Devin Booker. Their pick
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: and roll defense has been attackable this season, so I
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: feel like he makes a lot of sense here. And
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: then the Hornet's side, it's kind of always a max
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: two for me, and I don't really have a strong
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: lean to all these guys, So if you do have one,
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: I would love to hear you take here Bee, I
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: break this one down Suns at Hornets.
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: I think Booker, to your point about the Suns, is
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: really the only guy you can lean into from Phoenix.
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: But man, like this spot, which isn't, like you said,
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: a bad spot, but it's not an elite spot by
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: any means either, And then you've got Dylan Brooks back,
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: which man, I don't love for Booker. Like we've seen
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: Booker's best games come when Brooks has been out. So
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: nine tag or nine K price tag like, Booker still
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: has upside there, but I think he's got kind of
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: a lowest floor. And I don't think I'm afraid to
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: not play him either, even though as always he's the
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: type of guy that he can get hot and get
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: there at nine K, so I recognize that, but I
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: struggle to get there tonight. From the Charlotte side, it's difficult.
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: I think this game does stand out better from like
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: a real life perspective than a fantasy sports perspective, at
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: least on Draftking it's just because of where it's priced.
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: Kind of like the last game, you do have like
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: the competitive angle here where this game should be tight,
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: and there are even better players than their were from
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: the last game. So I don't have a strong take,
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: like initially with how they're priced. I think they're all
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: kind of priced where they should be. I'd love to
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: say LaMelo because he's the best of them and projects
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: the best, but he's also the most expensive. Miles Bridges
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: is the cheapest, but I think offers the lowest floor
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: by far. I don't have a strong take all these
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: guys that'd be wanting to get to in multi entry stuff,
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: but I don't think any of them look like better
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: plays than their counterparts at similar price tags from the
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: later games.
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think the Hornet site is interesting in the
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: sense that we just it's been like very rare to
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: get a close game from them on one way or
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: the other. Like a lot of their wins just come
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: in massive blowout fashion. Then they did get blown out
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: by the Celtics close game against Phillies Stufel, Like that's
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: kind of a game where you could see the minutes
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: be on Like on the higher end of things, we
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: saw Lamela get to thirty seven. Con played thirty six,
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: Miller played thirty four. So if you're getting full minutes
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: from these guys, they definitely have upside. I think that
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: they might be It's probably probably an appropriate price tag
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: for all these guys, but definitely room for upside and
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: all of them. I just don't necessarily think that one
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: stands out amongst the rest. I would probably just say
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: max two and then let them kind of land wherever
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: they do land.
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: I agree with all that.
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: Cool, All right, we can jump into the next game.
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: Lakers at ok See should be a really fun matchup,
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: but Vegas is not giving the Lakers much credit after
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: they have been red hot for the past month. Basically,
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: they are nearly double digit underdogs and they ranked six
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: in net rating over the past month. So even with
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: all that, like, their defense has been good, offense has
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: been great. Luca is playing at an MVP level. I
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: believe it's like was it eleven or it's like eleven
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: to thirteen straight games with thirty plus points and then
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: a couple forty point games in a row. I think
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: that this game does have fantasy peel that is probably
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: going a little bit overlooked because we kind of have
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: a little bit of everything here. Like the mid tier
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: guys are for sure and play if you talk about
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: like Lebron, Reeves, Chat Jadab, even Hartenstein to a lesser extent,
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: but like Luca and Shay to top four MVP candidates
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: on the slate probably top three, yeah, top four probably,
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: But then a couple of values that I think are
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: going overlooked. Yeah, So let me hear your take on
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: this one, and then I'll kind of break down what
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: I'm seeing because I think that there are some guys
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: on both sides that are getting little to no ownership
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: that look pretty good here. I'll say that questionable tag
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: on Cruso could tie things up a little bit on
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: the back end of the rotation.
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: So I think you potentially like the value more than
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: me on this slate. And the only thing I'll say
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: to you is, I don't know how cheap you're talking,
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: but doesn't for me seem like a slate where we
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: need really cheap value because we don't have elite spend
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: up options, especially now with Webby out, and there are
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: a lot of good mid tier to like I guess
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: the Denny range who's still under nine K, so interested
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: to hear your take there. I think the the better
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: angle I personally like is like the MVP here and
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: also the mid range plays. I think you could look
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: at it from either of those angles, like SGA and Luca.
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: Luca's been on a tear obviously a much tougher spot
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: and doesn't project as well as he's had recently, but
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: the ownership isn't there, so he is one of those
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: pend up options that if you want to make a
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: case to get to I wouldn't argue it Sga himself.
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: I mean, you're saving a lot as far as price
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: tag goes, and this is the prime spot for him,
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: you know, MVP matchup here. I could easily see either
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: of both of those guys going off here with the
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: ball in their hands for a ton of the game
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: and then playing a little bit more just because of
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: the extra extra motivation there your mid range calls of
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: like Bron I like Reeves here. He seems like he's
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: priced nice projects decently with upside. Again, I can't say
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: that these guys are priorities for me over the pieces
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: from Portland and now the Spurs that I like, And
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: I think that in single entry type stuff, at least
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: where I sit right now. You're not wrong if you're
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: building just Blazers and Spurs with maybe some Pelicans mixed
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: in there. And I don't think guys from this game
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: are going to look better than those plays. It doesn't
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: mean that they're not going to get there, though, so
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: am misterested to hear your value take.
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I actually kind of have to dial back a
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: little bit now because the Spurs stuff did open up
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: a lot, and I do agree with you, like the
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: Pelicans and Portland look much better. But I actually, like
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: I'm normally never looking to play like lou Dort, But
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: if Crusoe misses, I mean they're already gonna need to
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: play a lot of him, a lot because of the
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: Luca matchup. He's a much better shooter at home. I
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: think that he's a guy that they could leave open
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: a little bit, so I could see this being a game.
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: Maybe he gets like to mid twenties DK points. I
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: don't necessarily know if that would be enough on the slate,
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: but he's only three point five K, so could could
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: be worse. Uh the Lakers side, I feel like you
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: do have to get a lot right here for these
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: guys to even matter. But hypothetically it's a pretty good
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: spot for Ruey and Luke Nard in particular because Okay,
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: see just the way that they defend, it will funnel
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: a lot of usage and a lot of shot volumes
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: to these secondary guys. And the really the way you
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: want to attack the thunder defenses with corner three point shooting,
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: because they do help off a lot so that I'll
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: leave open guys like Ruey and Lukenard in the corner.
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: Ruey pretty much is just always parked up in the corner,
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: so I do I could see this being a spot
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: where he gets up a good amount of shots here.
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: But I agree with you, I think, like, maybe give
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: these guys like Luca and Shay a little bit of
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: a narrative boost because I don't I don't like the
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: matchup for Luca at all. Like I feel like if
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: I'm playing a spin up in this game, it would
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: probably come from the OKAC side in Shay. We basically
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: have a ton of data from over the past three
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: seasons that say that loud Dort has done a great
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: job of limiting Luca. He's failed to top fifty six
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: d K points in four of his last five games
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: against lou Dort. They did go out for ninety three
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: against them like three seasons ago, but he's only averaging
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: twenty one point three points for seventy five, pretty poor
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: numbers for him, sixty two percent true shooting, so that's
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: fine there. I probably look to get away from Luca
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: and single entry, but you still have to consider him,
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: especially now that we lost Wemby. He's clearly got the
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: highest upside on the slate. I do think Lebron is
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: in a slightly better spot, though he's done well against
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: the Thunder. I think they'll put Jadub on him, which
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: has actually been a pretty exploitable matchup for Lebron. In particular,
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: he's averaging twenty six point two points for seventy five
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: on seventy five percent true shooting, so much better numbers
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: than Lucas. I would probably lean Lebron over Luca and Reeves. Here.
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: You can make the case for Reeves. He'll probably see
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: Shay on him, which is not a great spot because
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: she's actually a pretty good defender. And then eight and
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: at five point one K playing better could be a
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: spot where they asked for more out of him, with
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: Luca getting the door to assignment and then yeah, I
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: just I just think that sha is probably in a
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: better spot and it's actually a really good price for
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: him at ten point four K. So I'm I'm in
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: on Shae sprinkles of those value plays that I mentioned,
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: and then Lebron for me on the Lakers side, I think.
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: I'm with you that I like SGA the best, Rows,
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: like to spend ups go all in all, I don't
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: think you need anything from this game.
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, we'll go to the what's the next
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: game we have here? Warriors? So Warriors welcome in New York.
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: Cleveland Cavaliers coming off of a pretty bad loss in
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: LA the other night.
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: But I could say a good loss because the Cavs
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: aren't really trying to win right now.
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: Oh is that right? They're trying to cool positioning.
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they're talking about, you know, a lot of tank
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: aton talk, and people Cleveland are talking about the fourith
• 20:01
  Speaker 3: on top where the Nicks and Calves both would much
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: rather be the four seed than the three seed and
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: have to face Boston in the second round. So yeah,
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: I know that that's throwing shade on your pistons. But
• 20:15
  Speaker 3: there's a lot of talk about that around here.
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: No, I think that the I think Boston is definitely
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: a tougher matchup right now. I mean, look what, look
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: how they did last night. Man, that's just that was
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: a really impressive win against Miami. And Tatum looked like
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: himself last night. So that's I would probably rather play
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: Detroit right now for sure, especially if Kate is going
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: to be out for a little bit longer.
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: I agree that I would rather certainly face Detroit. But
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: you're dancing with the devil a little bit, trying to
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: like play the seeds like that, like, yeah, you know,
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: you kind of just got to play it out. Whatever
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: happens happens. But yeah, like I don't think that Calves
• 20:50
  Speaker 3: are necessarily dying to win their games right now.
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: So I pulled up their schedule really quick, because this
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: is definitely a really easy, like a very winnable game
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: for Cleveland, veryable. They play Okay, So they pretty much
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: have three wins on their on their record coming up
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: because they play Golden State, Indie and Memphis. Maybe they
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: could lose that game against Indy, but those are some
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: really really.
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: They're in Golden State here, I mean they're one and
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: a half games behind the Knicks for the three seed.
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm looking at the Knicks they play, So they
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: play Chicago tomorrow, very easy win, but then they do
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: play Atlanta on Monday, so that could be a tougher one. Yeah,
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: I mean it's this is gonna be coming down to
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: the wire for them, for sure.
• 21:38
  Speaker 3: It's tough to know exactly, you know what I mean.
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: I'm not gonna play it from a DF asked perspective
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: any differently, but wouldn't be surprised if things get a
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: little bit wonky just because you don't know.
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: The other point of that though, is like before you
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: get into it, the Cavs haven't really had Mobley and
• 21:56
  Speaker 3: Allen both healthy for when Harden's been here, So maybe
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: they're looking to just get those guys minutes together and
• 22:03
  Speaker 3: doesn't really matter, you know, whether they win or whether
• 22:06
  Speaker 3: they lose. They're not gonna play it any differently because
• 22:08
  Speaker 3: they want to get them those guys reps.
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely could see that too. I mean I texted
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: you when I was looking at some like the four
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: man lineup with hard and Mitchell, Mobile and Allen and
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: I mean it's a very small sample, but their offense
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: looks like it could be really really good with all
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: four of those guys out there.
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll see if they can challenge Boston. But we've
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: talked about this. I personally think after Boston there's a
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: lot Like you can make the case for a bunch
• 22:34
  Speaker 3: of different teams, but I think the Calves are the
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: second best team from a talent perspective. So we'll see
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: what happens in the playoffs.
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure, be exciting. I think the East is
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: gonna be a really there'll be some good series out there,
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: or the West. I could see it being a little
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: bit less competitive.
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: And the thing about the East, like you look at
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: the teams like five through eight right now, they're good,
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: Like those teams aren't easy outs. Atlanta has once seventeen
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: and nineteen lit Toronto. I'm missing someone.
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: Miami is still there.
• 23:06
  Speaker 3: Miami is still there, but someone that's not.
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: Orlando, I don't. I mean, they're they're in that Philly, Yeah, Philly.
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: Who Like obviously they're inconsistent, but when they're fully healthy, man, Like,
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: how could they not be scary? With Maxi embiid Paul George, Like,
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: they might be the most talented team in the East
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: when they're fully healthy, even though they're never fully healthy.
• 23:27
  Speaker 3: But what if they are healthy, you know.
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: I mean they are right now, so you just got
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: to kind of get through the last portion of the season. Yeah,
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: we'll see. I might. I could see Philly and Charlotte
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: being two teams that like maybe get an upset in
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: the first round, not Atlanta. I don't know if I'm
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: necessarily a believer in them.
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: Okay, Yeah, I mean I'd be surprised if any of
• 23:50
  Speaker 3: these those teams actually won their first round series. But
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: I think they could give whoever they're playing good series.
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I do think that. I think Detroit and Charlotte,
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: I think Charlotte matches are pretty well. With Detroit, I
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: could actually see them that game, that series going six or.
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: Seven, especially if Kaid's like not fully healthy.
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, we'll jump into this one here. Yeah,
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: so I think injury wise is pretty clean. The actually Okay,
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: so the Melton and Ghee are still questionable. I thought
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: that they were upgrade to probable, but they'll be getting
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: Chris Tops and Gary Payton tonight and then the Calves
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: minus Jalen Tyson Dean Wade fully healthy. We saw Max
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: Shrusk get into the starting lineup last game, which I
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: actually think will probably continue here, and I think it's
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: a pretty good spot for him. I'm not really seeing
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: too much in this game personally. I think that you
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: can make the case for for Donovan, for Harden, Mobley
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: and Allen, I'm a little bit less interesting. I think
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: that Mobley's offensive upside really takes a big hit when
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: he's sharing the court with Jared Allen, because I think
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: that Harden prefers Allen as the pick and roll partner.
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: But Mitchell and Hart and one of these guys will
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: be matchup against a pretty weaker defender in pods. I
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: would think one of them is going to get Melton,
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: but if Melton missed changes things up a little bit.
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: I think all these guys are definitely worth taking swings on,
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: maybe to a lesser degree Jared Allen because I think
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: he's so limited. But I do have interest in Max
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: Shruss at four point three k assuming that he's starting,
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: I feel like kind of regardless. But there was some
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: talk about from Kenny Atkinson saying they want to get
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: his minutes. It's like the upper twenties. Last game, he
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: was trending for thirty played fifteen first half minutes in
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: the blowout kind of cut him down a little bit,
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: and then Warriors side. I mean, like Christops is getting ownership.
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: I feel like he's priced out. Draymond never a guy
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: I'm looking to play at this stage of his career.
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: No thank you on Pods. I actually think that Gie
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: Santos had a thirty point game before Pods did. I
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: might have to double check that, but I don't know
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: if Pods ever scored thirty points in the game in
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: his short career, but Gee Santos had one a few
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: games ago. I'm not too interested in this game personally,
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: but if you can talk me onto some stuff, I'll
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: definitely get there. But what he's seen in this one.
• 26:05
  Speaker 3: Not saying a lot. I mean, I think Harden looks okay.
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: I'm seeing that what Saber has been projected with decent ownership.
• 26:16
  Speaker 3: I don't know if I'm buying that, but you do
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: have money to spend on this slate. I don't love
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: this spot. I don't love this game. Pat Spencer, maybe yeah,
• 26:26
  Speaker 3: I'm probably out here. I like the last two games
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: too much for me to want to kind of deviate
• 26:31
  Speaker 3: under this game. I don't know Cleveland's motivations. All these
• 26:36
  Speaker 3: guys healthy, like both big men being in makes me
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: lean Harden, like he should have a bunch of assists
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: basically every game. But I'm also not scared to not
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: play him. So yeah, I really don't love anything here
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: at all. Anything again, kind of like I said in
• 26:55
  Speaker 3: another game, we talked about basically anything at the same
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: price dag last two games. I'm just gonna like more
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: in the last two games. I was hearing someone and
• 27:05
  Speaker 3: like locally from Cleveland talk about how Struce and me
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: and you have talked about this, like he just brings
• 27:11
  Speaker 3: a mentality to the Calves that they had been missing.
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: He's a true dog, like he's in Alpha. He walks
• 27:19
  Speaker 3: around like he's the lead dog anywhere he is. Like
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: that's just his personality and that's what they need. So
• 27:27
  Speaker 3: I am encouraged about the Calves going into the playoffs,
• 27:29
  Speaker 3: Like these last two games don't really matter whether they
• 27:32
  Speaker 3: win or lose, but I think they've got a legit
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: shot in the East.
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean could be. I mean they'll be faced
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: off against some pretty weaker defenses over the next few games,
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: so maybe just a spot where they get some momentum
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: going into the into the playoffs. I could see, I
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: could see the Calves offense having a lot of success here.
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: Just don't know if it's necessarily going to be enough.
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: I don't think there's probably one game that you've needed
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: James Harden, he's suited up for the Cavs. He had
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: sixty five against Chicago, and pretty much every other game
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: been in like the mid to upper forties. I just
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: don't know if that's necessarily going to be something you
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: needed more often than not. So Harden or Booker, they're
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: about the same play to me, But I guess I know,
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: I agree, I guess Hardened because I don't I don't know.
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: The team total looks a little bit better, so I
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: probably just slide with Harden there. But that's a very
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: very similar play.
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: I do feel like it's Hardened. But like, if one
• 28:36
  Speaker 3: of these guys has like sixty plus, I think it's Booker,
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: even if that only happens like once every forty, you know,
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: thirty games or whatever. Yeah, I still think that's probably Booker,
• 28:48
  Speaker 3: just because of the competition for touches in Cleveland, even
• 28:53
  Speaker 3: though they both have that now. So that's why I
• 28:55
  Speaker 3: think there's such similar plays I'm with you.
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, we'll jump into the next when they're
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: the premiere DFS game of the night Portland at sorry
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: it's New Orleans at Portland. Got a couple of questionable
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: tags in this one. We did get clarity on one
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: of them. It is Carlo Matkovich is going to be
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: out for New Orleans. And then they have a questionable
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: tag on Trey Murphy. Sounds like he's gonna play, but
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: I don't really know. They play the Kings tomorrow, and
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: there was some talk from their coach that they're going
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: to start playing these g leaguers and young guys a
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: little bit. They'll have Dejonte tonight, but it is a
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: back to back, so they will not be playing de
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: Jhonte will not be out there tomorrow. Definitely think that
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: Murphy is probably the biggest Q tag left on the
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: slate because if he were to miss we're getting somebody
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: new into the starting lineup, probably gonna be Missy. And
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: then you also get a little bit more overlap between
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: Jeremiah Fears and de john Sey Murray that they've been
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: kind of reluctant to do earlier in the season. But
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: on the Pelicans or sorry. In the Portland side, they
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: are without Shaden Sharp, Vic Crazy, Jeremy Grant, and then
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: their g leaguers got upgrade to questionable. Yang Hansen is doubtful. Also,
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: I don't know if you saw they got a got
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: fined for some tampering stuff with yang Hanson like two
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: years ago. It's kind of crazy the head their eyes
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: him for that long, but not really using him much
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: this year. I just thought that was a really weird
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: draft pick from them getting him last year. But I mean,
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: because Klingon is he's the real deal. I think he's
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: like I don't want to give him like too much props,
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: but like like Rudy Gobert, defensively, maybe a little bit
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: less impactful, but a much better offensive game. So I
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: like Clinging a lot. I know that you're you're always
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: really high on him, but y'll let you talk about
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: this one Pelicans at Portland.
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna throw it right back to you real quick,
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: because I love Klingen in this spot. I was all
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: over Sangoon in this spot recently, actually the last game
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: New Orleans playing, and he absolutely kneoked. But Klingon has
• 30:55
  Speaker 3: been real and consistent lately. Minutes are very volatile. So
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: before I break it down, like, how in on clinging
• 31:03
  Speaker 3: are you here? How worried about you are his? About
• 31:06
  Speaker 3: his just straight up overall volatility at the moment.
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: Definitely a little bit worried there, But I think that's
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: kind of good because you're getting ownership low and I do.
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: I like him in the spot a lot. I agree
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: with you. I think this is a great spot for him.
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: Like the Pelicans looked like they were better on defense,
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: but then really have been bad, back to being bad again,
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: really bad rim defense, bottom three and rebounding like I
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: and if Murphy is in, I feel like that's better
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: for Clinging because he's gonna be matched up with like
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: Herb Jones or like Zion in the front court, just
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: a bunch of smaller guys than we've seen. When he
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: does have the mismatch, they'll definitely look to get him
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: the ball. So I'm I'm in on clinging tonight for sure.
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: So I'll throw it back to you, what do you
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: football clinging here?
• 31:46
  Speaker 3: No, that's a good call about if Murphy's in. I
• 31:49
  Speaker 3: have no lean on Murphy. You say he's probably in,
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: so cool, I'm with you there, But either way, I'm
• 31:55
  Speaker 3: in on Clinging, like just because his upside's too real
• 31:58
  Speaker 3: here for me to not be in on him, even
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: with him being so low thought. I'm looking to win tournaments,
• 32:03
  Speaker 3: so this is the spot I've been looking to pick on,
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: and I'm gonna go back to it tonight. I like
• 32:07
  Speaker 3: Clinging a lot here. I like the rest of Portland too.
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: Denny obviously gonna be one of the highest owned players
• 32:14
  Speaker 3: on the slate eighty nine hundred, especially now with money
• 32:17
  Speaker 3: to spend. He looks really, really good. Scoot fifty seven hundred.
• 32:22
  Speaker 3: I know that, you know, he can certainly be quick
• 32:25
  Speaker 3: to get on either of our bad sides, but his
• 32:27
  Speaker 3: upside in a spot like this is real. I like
• 32:30
  Speaker 3: him quite a bit. Timani Kamara matisset tible, I see
• 32:36
  Speaker 3: Thibel exees me getting getting ownership here. He's thirty six
• 32:39
  Speaker 3: hundred again, No, Jeremy Grant, so hard to get away
• 32:43
  Speaker 3: from Portland if you're not in on Clinging. I think
• 32:46
  Speaker 3: Robert Williams at forty two hundred makes a lot of sense.
• 32:49
  Speaker 3: I think you could conceivably play both of them. It's
• 32:52
  Speaker 3: not like the most loaded center slate. So yeah, I
• 32:56
  Speaker 3: like a ton of Portland here. I mean all those
• 32:58
  Speaker 3: guys I mentioned, you could to make a case to
• 33:01
  Speaker 3: be core plays here, obviously, with some being better than others.
• 33:05
  Speaker 3: New Orleans on my real bad side right now. Last
• 33:08
  Speaker 3: time they were on a slate was that Houston slate
• 33:10
  Speaker 3: I just mentioned, and I had a really good lineup
• 33:13
  Speaker 3: in the smaller five point fifty five that night. Unfortunately
• 33:17
  Speaker 3: I played Zion and actually Herb Jones over RJ. Barrett
• 33:23
  Speaker 3: and Fears one of those swaps that just crushed me again,
• 33:26
  Speaker 3: and Zion and Fears would have gotten there had this game,
• 33:29
  Speaker 3: had that game been even remotely competitive, which it wasn't,
• 33:33
  Speaker 3: so those guys didn't play the fourth. Fears cleaned up
• 33:36
  Speaker 3: in the fourth. It's just tale old as time. We
• 33:38
  Speaker 3: know how that goes. As far as tonight goes from
• 33:40
  Speaker 3: the New Orleans side, my favorite piece is going to
• 33:43
  Speaker 3: be Derek Queen. You talked about it a little bit.
• 33:46
  Speaker 3: They're looking to play their young guys a little bit more,
• 33:47
  Speaker 3: at least that's what they're saying. And you've got Makovic
• 33:50
  Speaker 3: out Queen at forty one hundred. I'm in on him here.
• 33:54
  Speaker 3: I think you could make a case for the more
• 33:56
  Speaker 3: expensive guys if you think this game is close, and
• 33:59
  Speaker 3: you're not by into the palace playing their younger guys.
• 34:02
  Speaker 3: Who knows what they're really gonna do in a competitive
• 34:04
  Speaker 3: type situation, who knows if they're really gonna start that tonight.
• 34:08
  Speaker 3: So Zion's cheap man like seventy three hundred, We talk
• 34:12
  Speaker 3: about it a lot. He doesn't show upside, and he
• 34:14
  Speaker 3: hasn't shown upside a bunch this year. But that was
• 34:17
  Speaker 3: more when he was like eight K eighty two hundred.
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: Now he's seventy three hundred, So those forty point games
• 34:25
  Speaker 3: now are kind of upside, And like the thirty five
• 34:29
  Speaker 3: thirty six is, you're fine with. He's now priced to
• 34:31
  Speaker 3: a point where I feel like you can play him
• 34:34
  Speaker 3: presuming his minutes stay the same. And again, this game
• 34:37
  Speaker 3: stays kind of competitive. He's a frustrating roster, not gonna
• 34:40
  Speaker 3: lie like you just feel like he should be so
• 34:43
  Speaker 3: much better than he is, but he's still not bad.
• 34:47
  Speaker 3: So all in all, I like this game a ton.
• 34:50
  Speaker 3: I like the Portland side obviously more. I'm fine with
• 34:52
  Speaker 3: playing a bunch of Portland and no New Orleans.
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: Personally, Yeah, I like the case made for Derrek Queen
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: for sure. Damian really think about that with Carlo Ale,
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: like those minutes have to go somewhere else, Maybe they
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: go to DeAndre Jordan, but I kind of feel like
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: Queen should definitely get a bulk of those. I also
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: think that we'll we'll know when they're gonna play the
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: young guys. That'll be a situation where like Zion, Bay
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: Murphy and de John good call.
• 35:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're like maybe tomorrow.
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah exactly, They're playing the Kings tomorrow too, So that's
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: like a perfect spot to give those guys the night off.
• 35:27
  Speaker 3: But maybe that makes me like Zion a little bit
• 35:29
  Speaker 3: more here.
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think he's playing full. I think you definitely
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: made a better case for him than I kind of thought,
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: because at seven point three k like you said, the
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: thirty five to thirty eight is not really going to
• 35:39
  Speaker 2: kill you, and like a forty two to forty four
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: point game is starting to actually like look like a
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: high upside play. So I think that a good point
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: you made there. I think Fears is somewhat interesting because
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: of their willingness to overlap him at de Johntay a
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: little bit more. Now you probably need Murphy out for
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: me to get there, but he is a guy that
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: does have pretty solid permanent upside, and he will be
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: going up against the second unit. He's been playing better
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: as of late as we kind of wind down the season.
• 36:07
  Speaker 2: I'm not in on herb Jones at all. I mean,
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: he's always getting ownership because he's so cheap and his
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: good eligibility, but he's kind of just perpetually locked into
• 36:15
  Speaker 2: like twenty two fantasy points. I'm just I'm just not
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: doing that, Like I think you'll need more from your
• 36:20
  Speaker 2: value plays.
• 36:21
  Speaker 3: I'm so out on him. I can't tell you how
• 36:23
  Speaker 3: on him I am. I'm totally with you.
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: I agree with pretty much everything you said, though Danny borderline.
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: I mean, that's like a single entry core play for sure.
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: I think Toumani probably is as well. He's been playing great,
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: playing a lot of minutes, and I think he'll get
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: Zion on defense. Zion has kind of been known to
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: believe guys open a little bit, so kind of boats
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: well for his offensive matchup, and the minutes will definitely
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: be strong. So I'm pretty in on Toomani. I think
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: Scoot is in play. Probably want to play Scoot with
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: Drew if you're considering both of those guys, And then
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: I like your call on stacking up both centers on
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: the Portland side because they're both gonna have some really
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: good matchups. So if it could, like we know that
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: time Lord can fill it up in a hurry, and
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: if we do get both of them can Yeah, both
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: of them can. But if we finally run into a
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: game where it's like twenty eight minutes from Clinging and
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: then whatever, like twenty minutes from time Lord, that's a
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: pretty good split. And I think like you kind of
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: need more from Clinging in order for you to play
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: both of them, because it like twenty five from clean.
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: I don't know if that would be enough that you
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: kind of want full run from him and it whereas
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: like time Lord is fine at like eighteen to twenty
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: minutes regardless.
• 37:26
  Speaker 3: Because he's so cheap, right, Like, you definitely need more
• 37:29
  Speaker 3: from Clinging. You're just willing to take so much less
• 37:31
  Speaker 3: from time Lord because you're allocating so much more soundary Clinging.
• 37:35
  Speaker 3: But also with grant out, like this spot is so
• 37:38
  Speaker 3: good and we don't have great centers on this slate,
• 37:42
  Speaker 3: Like we haven't talked about a center thus far that
• 37:45
  Speaker 3: we're like dying to play. Are we gonna be loving
• 37:49
  Speaker 3: like Zach Collins, is he someone that, like I don't know,
• 37:53
  Speaker 3: that's just off that I mean not Zack Collins, I
• 37:56
  Speaker 3: met Luke Cornett.
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know why.
• 37:59
  Speaker 3: Well, like I don't even think so, Like he's cheap.
• 38:02
  Speaker 3: So I could easily see both these centers from Portland
• 38:06
  Speaker 3: being the best to know best two dollars per dollar
• 38:09
  Speaker 3: centers on the slate.
• 38:12
  Speaker 2: Yep, I agree there, and then tyble like that shout
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: as well. It's beginning a little bit more run as
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: of laid with Grant Out mainly a defensive specialist, but
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: he's actually some decent usage in some of these games.
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: Pelicans have been pretty good at taking care of the
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: ball this season, but he's a guy that can really
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: fill it up and hurry if he gets those just
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: those defensive stats you need from him. So yeah, all
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: in all, I think it's a great game to get
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: pretty pretty heavy into. And then you could also, you know,
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: just backload for that Spurs stuff because we're going to
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: be wanting some of these guys as well. Good segue though,
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: and before it jump in there did have a couple
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: more people trickle in here late. Our guy neighbors World
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: is here, what's going on? Bordo's in here, Al Money,
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: don Magic, I got Nate D. Collins going on man
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: and then our boy Josh Blazers. I believe they're right
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: there towards they're trying to hold off the Clippers or
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: get catch the Clippers. Yeah, they're yeah, fighting for the
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: eighth seed right now. So yeah, big big for the
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: Clippers that Wenby is out because they'll actually have a
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: chance to win this game. But yeah, Clippers are definitely
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: playing or the Blazers and the Clippers both playing for
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: something right now. All right, we'll jump into the last
• 39:24
  Speaker 2: game of the slate, San Antonio Spurs at La Clippers.
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: Our guy Little Neck will have showdown stuff up for
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: this game, and I'll probably be playing this game and
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: not playing the main slate tonight. Is kind of what
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: I'm thinking. Just don't really like the slate all around,
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: but a little Neck's been crushing it. And okay, so
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: the line actually flip. Now Clippers are favored by one.
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: Very interesting, but makes a lot of sense that Wenby
• 39:48
  Speaker 2: being out is gonna kind of impact the entire game
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: as a whole. Yes, I guess we kind of just
• 39:54
  Speaker 2: got to break down what to get into from the
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: Spurs side. We do have updated projection on savers. We
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: can I don't know if you have that pulled up,
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: we can refresh and then use whatever sab has there.
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: But Cornett should slide into the starting lineup and then
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: basically everybody else is gonna look a lot better. Sevon
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: Castle six seven point three, Fox is only six point six, K,
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: Vasel Harper, Keldon Champagne, We're all guys I already had
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: on my radar, but now it's gonna be really tough
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: to get away from them. But yeah, I mean Cornett
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: three point four K, I think you gotta play him now.
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: It's maybe a little bit less likely that I go
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: with like the clinging time lord stuff and probably just
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: go clinging and Cornett.
• 40:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it makes time or look a lot less appealing now.
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, So if you wanna, you wanna touch on
• 40:42
  Speaker 2: this game on the Spurs side, and then we could
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: talk through Clippers actually think that, I mean it changes
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: a lot. Like I really had interest in brook Lopez too,
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: but now I don't think that you need him with
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: the value that opened up at center. But I like
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: Garland here. But you touched in this game. Spurs at Clippers.
• 40:59
  Speaker 3: I like and Kawhi because you've got money to spend
• 41:02
  Speaker 3: on this slate and this game would be really competitive.
• 41:04
  Speaker 3: But it's the Spurs side that look the best from
• 41:08
  Speaker 3: from a value perspective. I mean, play them all. Cornett, Castle, Fox,
• 41:12
  Speaker 3: Thesell Harper, they all look really really good here. I
• 41:16
  Speaker 3: mean I always like Harper the most when there's priced
• 41:19
  Speaker 3: like this, but the sell really cheap Fox, really, I mean,
• 41:23
  Speaker 3: all these guys are super cheap already, and for women
• 41:27
  Speaker 3: to be out, they all look just really appealing. Keldon
• 41:30
  Speaker 3: Johnson Champagnie I think has a role on this slate.
• 41:36
  Speaker 3: Hard to get away from the Spurs. Cornett obviously looks
• 41:39
  Speaker 3: like now the best value play on the board. Hard
• 41:42
  Speaker 3: to get away from him. But it's hard to get
• 41:44
  Speaker 3: away from all these guys, Like I think you want
• 41:46
  Speaker 3: multiple Spurs and basically any lineup you make, certainly any
• 41:49
  Speaker 3: line up your handbuilding and playing three four of these
• 41:54
  Speaker 3: guys remains wildly in play. Honestly, the only reason I
• 42:00
  Speaker 3: wouldn't play like just a combination of San Antonio and
• 42:03
  Speaker 3: Portland is to be different. But maybe that's different enough
• 42:07
  Speaker 3: just playing those two teams, So I'm in on the
• 42:10
  Speaker 3: Spurs here hard not to.
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: Be Yeah, for sure, I really like I liked Castle
• 42:17
  Speaker 2: here a ton. He's gonna be guarding Kawhi, so a
• 42:19
  Speaker 2: little bit of foul risk, but probably not as much
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: as we would think. And he's just been playing great lately.
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: A couple the triple double three games ago, double double,
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: back to back games. Usage, he's a pretty big uptick
• 42:29
  Speaker 2: with Wemby off the court of the season just looking
• 42:32
  Speaker 2: at the numbers, but it's him for Sell and Darren
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: Fox is the top three guys that's see a really
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: big usage role increase. I would probably not want to
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: get three of Castle, Fox and Harper. I think that
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: you probably would if you just ran like some blind optimizers,
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: but give any you think that's a good rule to
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: make a max two of Castle, Fox and Harper.
• 43:00
  Speaker 3: I don't know. I'm not sure, just because they're all
• 43:06
  Speaker 3: so cheap for Wemby to be out and like, I
• 43:08
  Speaker 3: don't love this game, but they all have good price
• 43:11
  Speaker 3: tags in general, So then you take Wemby out, Like
• 43:14
  Speaker 3: is it likely for all three of them to get
• 43:16
  Speaker 3: there or no? But I don't know if i'd set
• 43:18
  Speaker 3: a rule of that.
• 43:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, I think I probably, I probably, I think
• 43:25
  Speaker 2: I would personally, but then if that gets me to
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: more like Keldon Visel and Champagnee, I think I'd be
• 43:31
  Speaker 2: okay with that. Obviously, I think Harper has the best
• 43:34
  Speaker 2: ceiling of the three, But I mean I'd be fine
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: going like Castle and Harper versus Castle and Fox. I
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: think I'd be more inclined to do that. Also, it's
• 43:43
  Speaker 2: worth noting that back to back for the Spurs and
• 43:46
  Speaker 2: Fox did get a little bit banged up last night,
• 43:48
  Speaker 2: so there's a chance that they just limit his minutes
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: a little bit, which I think would be a huge
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: plus for Dylan Harper for sure. But yeah, I'm in
• 43:56
  Speaker 2: on probably playing like Force person. I think is like,
• 44:00
  Speaker 2: for sure, three is in play, but I think four
• 44:02
  Speaker 2: is even fine tonight, and then you agree you have
• 44:06
  Speaker 2: money spends. I think Kawhi is in a good spot here.
• 44:09
  Speaker 2: The the perimeter scores are going to be the way
• 44:12
  Speaker 2: that you beat the Spurs, but I think that's going
• 44:14
  Speaker 2: to change a lot now with Wenby out. Obviously, Cornette
• 44:16
  Speaker 2: pretty good as a backup, pretty solid rim protector, but
• 44:18
  Speaker 2: not nearly as impactful as like, you know, just changing
• 44:22
  Speaker 2: the opposing team's offensive role or offensive identity as much
• 44:27
  Speaker 2: as Wenby. So I think Garland and Kawhi definitely got
• 44:30
  Speaker 2: a lot better. Don't think you need brooklyp as now,
• 44:33
  Speaker 2: but he's playing a ton like he might play thirty
• 44:34
  Speaker 2: six minutes tonight. They don't have Isaiah Jackson and Tylu
• 44:38
  Speaker 2: said that they just can't play small balls. You've seen
• 44:40
  Speaker 2: guys like Batum really get cut down as of late.
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: So I mean Lopez is going to have to play
• 44:46
  Speaker 2: a ton of minutes. He might be a pretty good
• 44:49
  Speaker 2: GPP play that's probably gonna get overlooked now once ownership updates.
• 44:53
  Speaker 3: The reason it's really hard to get to Darland, who
• 44:57
  Speaker 3: I also like, and then brook Lopez now is just
• 45:01
  Speaker 3: their positionality. Garland at guard like you've got Scoot Harper
• 45:06
  Speaker 3: fox Castle. I mean those guys right there, that's not
• 45:09
  Speaker 3: even including Luca and Sga. I mean, let alone like
• 45:13
  Speaker 3: the Bookers, Hardens Dennis's of the world. I'm gonna chuckle
• 45:20
  Speaker 3: every time I say that for the next while.
• 45:21
  Speaker 4: But uh yeah, and then Kawhi just kind of sitting
• 45:26
  Speaker 4: there at small forward I think is the mutt is
• 45:28
  Speaker 4: by far the easiest to play of those guys, and
• 45:31
  Speaker 4: I'm more likely to get to him because of that.
• 45:33
  Speaker 4: Even though I think you're right about Lopez being intriguing
• 45:36
  Speaker 4: in tournaments and Garland just already looking good and then
• 45:40
  Speaker 4: now with wembiaut looks infinitely better.
• 45:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that, man, I really do. I really
• 45:47
  Speaker 2: like Garland a lot here, but like I said, like
• 45:49
  Speaker 2: how I just don't know how you can go there
• 45:51
  Speaker 2: when Dennis is so much cheaper. But I really do
• 45:55
  Speaker 2: like if one is getting fifty to sixty, it's Garland,
• 45:57
  Speaker 2: it's probably not Jenkins. But I was looking at like
• 46:01
  Speaker 2: the usage rate from Garland the last time they played
• 46:03
  Speaker 2: the Spurs. He had a forty percent usage rate in
• 46:05
  Speaker 2: that game, and Kawhi was guarded by Castle, did fine
• 46:09
  Speaker 2: had like uh, I think he had like thirty points
• 46:12
  Speaker 2: in that game, fifty one DK points, so he was
• 46:14
  Speaker 2: fine for his price tag. But Garland, I think he
• 46:17
  Speaker 2: does have the upside that could kind of run away
• 46:20
  Speaker 2: at the position at least in like that mids here.
• 46:23
  Speaker 2: I do like him a good bit here. I think
• 46:24
  Speaker 2: Collins is fine at five point five k minutes have
• 46:27
  Speaker 2: come up been solid from a fantasy standpoint. And then yeah, Lopez,
• 46:32
  Speaker 2: I like him I also think that Jordan Miller is
• 46:35
  Speaker 2: somewhat sneaky getting really no ownership just because he's a
• 46:38
  Speaker 2: I think he's a baller and I like his game.
• 46:40
  Speaker 2: But he did really well against them. I don't know.
• 46:45
  Speaker 2: Is it a bad contract if you win the title
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: with him, I don't know. I mean, Hartenstein, I would
• 46:51
  Speaker 2: say he probably got a little bit overpaid. But he's
• 46:54
  Speaker 2: been solid for okay see, and they won a title
• 46:57
  Speaker 2: with him, So.
• 47:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think. I don't think they're looking at
• 47:01
  Speaker 3: it as like a bad contract. I mean, he's a
• 47:05
  Speaker 3: good defensive piece for them, that's all they really need.
• 47:08
  Speaker 3: Like he's not going to get good numbers.
• 47:10
  Speaker 2: I mean he's a good, good passer, a really good pastor,
• 47:13
  Speaker 2: and he's a really good rebounder. I think that was
• 47:15
  Speaker 2: kind of the main reason that got him, is because
• 47:17
  Speaker 2: chet is not as good as a as he is
• 47:20
  Speaker 2: a center versus as a power forward.
• 47:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know.
• 47:28
  Speaker 2: I still think it was a good pickup. I mean,
• 47:30
  Speaker 2: you got the number one seed with him. He was
• 47:32
  Speaker 2: definitely powerful throughout the season and at times in the playoffs.
• 47:34
  Speaker 2: I think I think it's a good pickup, and this
• 47:36
  Speaker 2: is the type of reason why you give a guy
• 47:38
  Speaker 2: like Blue Cornett that much money because you can be
• 47:40
  Speaker 2: a solid backup behind Wenby when he's out. But yeah,
• 47:45
  Speaker 2: I think that pretty much covers it. Get out of
• 47:47
  Speaker 2: here in pretty good time. Any closing thoughts before we
• 47:51
  Speaker 2: jump out of here.
• 47:52
  Speaker 3: There's like too many guys from Portland and San Antonio
• 47:56
  Speaker 3: that I want to play. It's like hard to go
• 47:58
  Speaker 3: to lineup just with those guy because there's so many
• 48:00
  Speaker 3: of them I want to play. Yeah, and I'm with him,
• 48:04
  Speaker 3: I'm with Josh Gillum, like thirty five mili is crazy,
• 48:06
  Speaker 3: But like that's NBA contracts right now. I mean, you know,
• 48:11
  Speaker 3: these guys are getting paid a ton of money. It's
• 48:12
  Speaker 3: just what it is. So he played an integral role
• 48:15
  Speaker 3: on them, starting on them winning a title. And I
• 48:18
  Speaker 3: know that he mentioned he couldn't even play in the finals.
• 48:21
  Speaker 3: Indy was doing some weird things where they played a
• 48:23
  Speaker 3: lot of guys off the court. And yeah, he's not
• 48:26
  Speaker 3: like a stud, but he played a good role for them.
• 48:30
  Speaker 3: And I don't think that they're looking like they need
• 48:33
  Speaker 3: I don't think they're thinking they need to get off
• 48:34
  Speaker 3: him or anything like that. Like he plays a good
• 48:36
  Speaker 3: role for them.
• 48:39
  Speaker 2: I think was it a three year deal? Also for him?
• 48:43
  Speaker 3: There is he done after this year?
• 48:45
  Speaker 2: It would probably be one more year, I think, right.
• 48:48
  Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, yeah, because he first year last year. I
• 48:50
  Speaker 3: don't know. I also think like he's a good locker
• 48:53
  Speaker 3: room guy, Like I don't know, I like to cut
• 48:56
  Speaker 3: his gym.
• 48:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree. Yeah, I mean he played a different
• 49:01
  Speaker 2: role with the Knicks though, you don't You're not gonna
• 49:03
  Speaker 2: ask him to be that type of guy when you
• 49:05
  Speaker 2: have Shay and Jadab and Chad and all these other
• 49:07
  Speaker 2: guys on Okay, see, but all right, that's gonna do it.
• 49:12
  Speaker 2: Matt always a pleasure. Appreciate everybody for tuning in. I
• 49:16
  Speaker 2: know that it gets a little bit tougher to talk
• 49:18
  Speaker 2: about NBA as we get closer to the end of
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: the season. But we'll be having some real basketball coming
• 49:24
  Speaker 2: up in a few weeks.
• 49:25
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 49:26
  Speaker 2: Really excited about that. And yeah, I definitely think it's
• 49:30
  Speaker 2: okay to skip those games. The later games are much
• 49:32
  Speaker 2: more appealing. But all right, good luck tonight, everybody. We
• 49:35
  Speaker 2: will be back. I think I think you're back tomorrow,
• 49:38
  Speaker 2: right with him? Yes, sir, yep, all right, so you
• 49:40
  Speaker 2: guys to see Matt tomorrow, and I'll be back on Monday,
• 49:43
  Speaker 2: and then they'll be next week will be the last
• 49:46

• 49:49
