NBA DFS Process | DraftKings & FanDuel Picks, Plays & Slate Breakdown | Thursday, 01/22/26 · Daily Fantasy Sports by Ship It Nation

• 0:05
  Speaker 1: All systems going clear. We left of.
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: What's going on? Everybody Happy Thursday, talking hoops, my Memoro,
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: six games on DraftKings, five games on FanDuel. We were
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: talking a little pre show. Yeah, Rio asked for bigger slates.
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: We do get some bigger slates, and we get the
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: Utah jazz. We always love to pick on some questionable
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: stuff though for some few tags. And it's on a
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: island at nine pm Eastern. But yeah, I think a
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: pretty good slate. Rio sounded excited about it. That's always
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: good Washington Chalk. If I had to describe the slate
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: sorting my ownership right now, what four of the top
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: six guys improjected ownership is on the Wizards? They do
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: lock right away. So interesting slate, excited to go game
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: by game? How are we doing today? Real?
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: They're doing good. Looks like a pretty fun slate right
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: off the bat. Got a a lot of warrior stuff
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: to talk through. They've been playing really bad lately. Got
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: Jonathan Kaminga back into the rotation last game, so we'll
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: see if that sticks. But yes, pretty pretty fun slate,
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: some high totals, a couple potential blowouts. Yeah, I wish
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: that the Wizards weren't getting as much love as they
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: are right now because I think it's a really good
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: spot for them. But we'll talk through it, hopefully find
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: some some pivots around these guys, because it's gonna I
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: don't think you want to play four or five Wizards
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: in the first game of the slate.
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, that's very good. That's a big talking point
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: for sure, since a lot of ownership's going there. My
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: question is, how does Steve Kurran not play KAMINGA. I
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: mean he was, he was really good for him yesterday
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: twenty one minutes, twenty points. He was plus three in
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: the plus minus category, where like all the starters like
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: the minus twenty. So how do you not I think.
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: He has too. I feel like there's a good chance
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: that he even starts tonight. You just gotta gotta play
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: it like this. I've been listening to a lot of
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: podcasts right now because obviously, with Jimmy Butler tearing his
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: ACL everybody's expecting Cominga to step up, and they're all
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: talking about his trade value and like this could increase
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: his trade value. I don't think that that's really the case. Like,
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: teams know what they're gonna get from Kaminga. At this point,
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: we've seen him for three four seasons now, so we
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: kind of know who he is as a player. But
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: I just feel like, if if the Warriors are gonna
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: be competitive, you have to replace Jimmy's production. And they
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: were very reluctant to play those two guys together the
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: past two seasons since they got Jimmy. So it just
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: makes a lot of sense for you to start Kaminga
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: and play him a lot.
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: Honestly, Yeah, not one hundred percent. I mean him encourage relationship,
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: camera be repaired or whatever. I don't know what that's about,
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: but you have to you have to try. He's better
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: than a lot of the other guys in my opinion
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: that I think they have. Yeah, Klier, I was laughing
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: at our guy, Matt. What's up Matt A lot? Huh?
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: He crushed the other night. Yeah, we're talking about I
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: think that's a Tuesday Slave where we talked about Carlier
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: as a pivot over Clayton and he smashed.
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, put in chat again. Yeah, great call there. Matt
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: wins a lot in here. Rodney Jordan, Little Neck, John
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: Jose May the Fair buye what's going on? I love
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: this picture. I saw that Parabde in the discord too,
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: love that. I'd spent a lot of time since the
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: one where do I concentrate my attention? Today we'll go
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: game by game and we'll do our best to to
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: walk you through the slate. But I would recommend if
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: you go to if you're a ship a nation member,
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: and you go to more and go down to education,
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: check out the NBA video for two hours. You never
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: know what little things can pop up that said that
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: clicks with you or whatever, So check that out. Check
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: out Rio and Cheats, Sabersim videos, Saber series. It is
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: mainly or it is just the NFL or now, but
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: it's very detailed oriented and you can apply a lot
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: of stuff that they talk about from over there too
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: or from NFL to NBA. So yeah, there's a lot
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: of videos Saber School. If you sign up for the
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: daily Pass nine dollars, you get Saber Sim five days
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: for nineteen dollars. I think that's probably the best deal.
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: Gets you a lot throughout the weekend, MMA, NBA, NFL,
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: Big NFL Slate, obviously, MMA back and NHL. So a
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: lot of big prizes right there. PGA Showdown is going
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: on right now, and there's definitely an edge in the
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: showdown streets with multiple courses this week. So yeah, you
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: check that out five days nineteen dollars. You get all
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: the education courses and check out real sheets, videos, mess
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: around and saber sim. That's how I'd recommend. But if
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: you can't, we just always asked is like button and
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: we'll talk through this late the best we can. And
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: I got nothing else there anything, what's up Avery justin
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: Ricky William, Good to see you guys too, Anything on
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: this slate, anything you want to talk about before you
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: go game by game?
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: No, nothing really that stood out to me. I think
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: we'll kind of find some things to talk about. I'll
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: just tell you got to check check your Discord messages
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: real quick and then we'll jump right in.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: But it's hard for the end. All right, sounds good.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: I will talk about this game intro it and then
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: I will check it after. So first game of the
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: night Charlotte Hornets and the Orlando Magic. We are looking
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: at five and a half point favorites of the Magic
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: two twenty three and a half total in this one.
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: Injuries on the Charlotte sid LaMelo is questionable, Trey Man
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: is out, Grant Williams is out on the Orlando side,
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: No Franz Wagner, no jail In Suggs. All I'll say is,
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: or actually, I'm gonna ask you and you can talk
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: about it. Is this a real Lamello thumb injury or
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: whatever it is? Or is it just man? This guy
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: makes them so much worse and g Ball is out
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: there shooting off a one leg, it's time to put
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: him on the bench and see what we can get.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean he shot what one for ten in
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: the first half solutely probably just over ten from three.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: So it's like when you know, you like a kicker
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: misses a field goal and then they like hurt their
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: leg all of a sudden. I feel like it's something
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: like that. It's just a management tag. I feel like
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: they're just trying to find ways to get him nights
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: off without alarming anything to the NBA. But I mean
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: it is a back to back. Talked about it yesterday.
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: He was going to be managing one of these to
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: get the questionable tag here. So it feels like he's
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: got a good chance to sit, which would definitely make
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: this game a lot more appealing than it is right now.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: It's a really low total, but there is some value.
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: I see no appenda popping now as a value. With
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: Franz Wagner out, I think he's probably going to be
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: the guy that's starting now. He just got double check. Yeah,
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: he's projected to start now, So that's definitely interesting. I
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: didn't really notice that when I was initially writing up
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: this game. You also get more Wagner back. I think
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: he returned in the game in Germany against Memphis fourteen
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: minutes there. Good to see him back. Always liked him
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: as a player. I would say that the appeal from
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: this game from fantasy perspective would come from the Orlando side.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: Taking away Franz Wagner. Obviously, Suggs still out makes guys
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: like Polo, Bain and Black their usage rolls a little
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: bit better. I do like Polo the best of the
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: three that nine point three K, just because we know
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: that he's got big upside triple double upside, twenty nine
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: percent usage rate, twenty six percent assist percentage, fourteen percent
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: rebounding rate. The point from Minter production is not great,
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: should be priced a little bit lower from what we've
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: seen from him just one point one seven with sugs
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: and Fronds off the court, but it is a pretty
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: good matchup. The Hornets are a team that has been
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: playing really good defense as of late, but they are
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: a bit more vulnerable around the basket. Orlando is one
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: of the the fourth highest offensive room frequency in the NBA,
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: so they're just looking to get to the rim. Charlotte,
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: you can attack at the baskets, so I think it's
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: a pretty good matchup for Polo there. I prefer Black
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: over Bain. He's just been the better fantasy producer this season.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: Seven point three K I think is a good price
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: for him. The Hornets are a little bit role with
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: guards as well, so I think that he's in a
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: pretty decent spot. And then I do like Penda's a
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: value at three point ak. That's a really good price tag.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: Honestly that we really didn't have a ton of value.
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: We've seen him have really high minute ceiling twenty seven
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: minutes thirty one thirty thirty eight over his last four
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: of his last six games with Fronds out, so he
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: looks pretty good there.
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: That's a lot of magic, I will say at ownership
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: for on this late they're gonna be super low and
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: you had quite a bit of interest, So I just
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: found that pretty interesting.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's more so like Polo and Jace or sorry,
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: Penda seemed like the two clear guys, and then it's
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: like a tear drop down to black and then another
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: tier dropped down to Desmond Baine. I don't really have
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: a ton of interest in Bain, but I do like
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: Polo and Jase.
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: So what do you have Penda? What like? What? What
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: do you have? Him projected at twelve point ninety three
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: sabers in fourteen for us, I'm taking the average at
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: thirteen six, like you got him what nineteen eighteen.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: Or something Fantasy Points was. Yeah, gotta see what the
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: minutes are. But we should I don't know if we've
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: updated yet, but we should have him close to thirty
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: as a starter.
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, I mean they're projecting twenty one minutes. That's why.
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: So this will all be updated. But yeah, that's a
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: lot of interest. I mean, Paul is definitely gonna be
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: contrariy and spend And the thing is there is Q
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: tags later in this late but you just can't focus
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: on backloading, Like there's just too much appeal in these
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: early games. So yeah, if you if you only have
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: like one or two spots after because you're playing Wizards,
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: and you're like, should I play Paulo? Should I save
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: a spot? I mean I would just play Paulo and stuff.
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: There's so many good plays early it's it's hard to
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: do so on a lot of teams in my opinion. Yeah,
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: keep going.
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, just going back to the Hornets side, I think
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: that it's kind of more of a stay away right
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: now if Lamela were to be in, but if he
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: if he is ruled out, there's two guys that I
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: would have interest in, and that would be Calling Sex
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: and Brandon Miller. The way to attack Orlando, especially with
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: sugs off the court is with guards, mainly guys that
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: score and pick and roll. Those are the two two
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: best pick and role scoring options outside of LaMelo, and
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: we've seen Consexton is kind of like the main guy
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: that does really well in the pick and roll. He
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: should get the start. I think the minutes. There's a
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: chance that he plays a lot of minutes to night
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: because some of the guys that would play behind him
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: normally kJ Simpson and trade Man are out for this game,
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: so it basically be him as like the lone true
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: point guard on the roster. I guess you can obviously
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: run more offense through guys like con Miller and Bridges,
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: but he's really the only point guard left in the team.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: So I think that he'd be a very very solid
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: value play at four point nine K and would allow
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: you to get off some of that Wizard's shock as well.
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: And I think people are gonna be pretty excited to
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: play the Wizards tonight, so you might get him at
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: decent ownership. So that's kind of what I'm viewing on
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: the hornet stuff. Don't really have a ton of interests elsewhere.
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: I mean, most guys on this leg you're gonna get
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: a decent ownership discount if they're in like the same
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: price range is these Wizards get right into that game.
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: I got nothing more to add, but it's gonna probably
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: be a little bit to talk about this Denver Nuggets
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: in the Washington Wizards six and that point favorite of
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: the Nuggets two twenty six and a half total in
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: this one. On the Denver side, Jonus Valentunas is questionable.
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: On the Washington side, no Kulibali aj Johnson's questionable, No
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: Bagley Vukevich. Yeah, mainly no Kulaballe. So just looking at it,
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: just sorting point per dollar. So many of these guys
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: are projecting very very well ownership following nobody on the
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: Wizzler Wizard. Let's see, six point ak is the highest
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: priced wizard we got right now, sorting my projection, yeah,
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: I mean they're obviously pretty thin, so looking at the minutes,
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: they look strong. I mean take it away, like how
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: many is too many? You did mention that you don't want.
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: I don't know what number you said, four or five?
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: Like optimizers are going to push that on some teams.
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: So are you gonna make rules and be restrictive? Very
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: curious to hear where you go with this.
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I definitely be a little bit more restrictive on
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: the Washington stuff. It's just very rare. On slates this big,
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: you're gonna get four to five guys that hit the optimal.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: Even I wanted to check the perfect lineup for last night,
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: because you did get a lot of really good scores
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: from Detroit, but only one was on the Winner last night,
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: So that's kind of that's pretty interesting, Like even Dennis
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: Jenkins wasn't on the Winner you most likely needed like
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: three in your single entry contest, probably Duran Jenkins and
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: Duncan or Sarr Thompson. So I wouldn't say to not
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: play four or five of these guys in single entry stuff,
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: but larger field mmm, I think you definitely can be
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: more restrictive and get away from some of the chalk.
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: It's really interesting, like we talked about it, you're playing
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: two different games almost in the single entry high seven
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: seven seven versus the flag Ship. Wow. Like that. The
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: Pistons did really well, Like they had a lot of
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: flames next to them. They were high owned, so just
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: to hear one of them is on the optimal that
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: really shows. And with how hop heavy the payouts are nowadays,
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: like you you want to, I think, get a little
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: lower owned, a little more off the board than you
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: might even feel comfortable with their think. So yeah, that's
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: good stuff.
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's been I feel like this season, more so
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: than seasons past, you haven't needed to be perfect most slates,
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: Like there's a lot of random guys popping up. Like
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: even if you were to get off of some of
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: the Pistons shock, you still had to get a lot
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: right to win. Because we're talking about guys like Landry Shamant,
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: Micah Peev, and Luke Kerenard who are all probably maybe
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: at most one percent owned in large field stuff. So
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: you still need a lot to go right if you
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: do fade that shock. But it's more so just saying
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: that you can get away from it if you want to,
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: and you get a pretty big ownership discount off some
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: of the guys that you'd play over the Chalky plays.
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: But yeah, Washington's side or sorry, Denver side obviously a
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: great spot to attack. It feels pretty pretty narrow on
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: who you want to play on this team right now.
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: Especially if Joe Bill is out then that would definitely
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: complicate things. I don't know. He's a little bit ahead
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: of schedule for what they initially had for him with
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: the capstra and it was looking like a four to
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: six week timeline. This would be three weeks out, so
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: maybe he sits one more game and then returns in
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: the next one. But with him back, I would imagine
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: they go right back to him in the starting lineup.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: We've seen a lot of times recently with these teams
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: where they'll bring these guys off the bench. I feel
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: like they start Joe Val, just because they've been so
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: so bad at protecting the basket lately. They're dead last
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: and rim defense this month, just really really struggling there
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: with no true center on the roster behind Joe Val
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: and Jokic, So I feel like they'd go back to him,
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: and that would likely kick out Spencer Jones in the
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: starting lineup. I think it would be Jamal Watson, Gordon,
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: Joe Val, and pick it. I think is what they
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: is it. Yeah, I think that'd be the five that
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: they would go with there. In terms of guys that
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: I'm looking at on the Wizard or the Nuggets side,
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: Jamal Murray is kind of the clear cut number one
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: option for me. Wizards are allowing the fourth most fantasy
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: point to a poisoning point guards this season, Jamal averaging
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: just under fifty one DK points per game without Jokic,
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: just went off for forty two points against this against
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: his team a few games ago, sixty three DK points. Obviously,
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: the clear upside there for a guy like Jamal Murray
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: just playing really really high level basketball. Prefer him the most.
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: And then I have Gordon ahead of Peyton Watson. I
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: was digging into some of the just like the advance
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: like tracking stuff for Aaron Gordon, He's been much more
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: involved as a playmaker over the last five or so games.
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: The potential assists are way up from his season average.
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: I think he's averaging like three potential assists earlier this season,
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: eight and a half over his last five games, shooting
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: forty three percent from beyond the three point line. So
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: just a really good role for Aaron Gordon. And he
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: was two points away from a triple double against the
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: Wizards last time. I think that the things that he
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: does well scoring around the basket and then also providing
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: some playmaking makes him a really really strong play at
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: seven point one K also very encouraging to see him
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: get back up to thirty two minutes in each of
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: the last two games. So like him as the second
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: best option. I think you can go to Paynton Watson,
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: but I just don't. I think it's really a big
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: price tag for him to pay off on this big
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: of a slate, so it probably won't go there, and
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: I think that is the cutoff for me for the
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: Denver side. On the Washington side, I really really like
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: Alex sar and Keishan George in particular, but I think
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: Alex Sar is really good at six point ak. Like
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: I mentioned, the Nuggets really struggling to defend the paint.
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: I don't think that it gets much better with Joe
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: Pile out there because he's never been a guy that's
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: a defensive stopper against opposing centers. And I was just
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: looking at some of the numbers for Alex Aar. Basically
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: in every game that he's played twenty nine or more
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: minutes this season, he's averaging forty four point three DK
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: points per game in those games. I think like his
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: low is probably like thirty eight, which is pretty solid
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: for his price tag, but you have a ton of
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: ceiling if you run into a game where he's playing
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: like thirty two to thirty three, and with Marvin Bagley out,
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: I think that the likely like he's more likely to
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: play the higher end of minutes tonight, So I think
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: we get a really strong game from Sar just with
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: him kind of you eliminate a decent backup center like
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: Marvin Bagley with for a guy like I don't even
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: know who would play back up maybe Will Riley or
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: Anthony Gill. Like those guys aren't NBA talent level players.
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: Right now. So I feel like Sar playing him thirty
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: to thirty two minutes makes him an exceptional plate tonight.
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Saber has it right a thirty one. I like it.
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: I mean that's a great stat for when he gets
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: those minutes. What he averages is you can see some
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: Jose asked in the chat to what's Middleton's minutes? So
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: I've this pulled up on Sabersim every show and I
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: love how it like you can sort point per dollar
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: right next to it. I have minutes the projection in minutes,
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: which is important that we're referencing, and then this is
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: fantasy point per minute. Obviously the higher the better. You
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: see one point three to two that's very elite. Let
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: me sort on this slate, Gafford, I mean that's irrelevant wemby,
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: which shows how what of a tier he's in one
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: point nine, but yeah, sorry, not too far below one
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: point three too. So yeah, it's a lot of information
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: on the screen right here. You can see what we
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: have it projected at, which are ship and nation or
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: sabers him hasn't projected ship in nation, the ownerships all that.
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean Sorr looks looks great. Then he'll
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: be the chalky center on him and Wenby like will
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: be very very popular double center do on this slate
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: with how much guard and other value we have?
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, So to me, it's pretty clear that Sara
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: is a guy I have the most interesting on Washington.
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: But then Kishon George is not too far behind him.
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: He looks like he's playing the same way that he
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: was earlier this season, where he was just crushing at
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: the kind of similar price tag. He's more so the
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: point guard for the team, like obviously bub is more
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: of like a prototypical point guard, and then you have
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: Trey Johnson who's a point guard by position only but
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: more of like a two guard, Milton ken Mixon as well.
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: But Kishon George is the guy that's running the point
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: for them. His scoring his way up over last four games.
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: He has seen an increase in his touch time as well,
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: averaging twenty one points per game, shooting the ball much better,
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: adding peripheral stats across the board, averaging five assists and
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: six rebounds per game. And then he just went off
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: for twenty nine to five and seven against the same
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: Denver defense two games ago. So I really like one
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: of Kishon George or Sorry to have a good game.
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: If not both, I think they're both very strong at
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: these price tags. And then you got to talk about
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: like Bub and Trey Johnson, because these guys are getting
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: a lot of ownership. Bub is just playing so many
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: minutes right now, it's really tough to see him failing,
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: even at five point four K. Like, I don't think
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: that he's the best permanut producer. He's right around like
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: zero point eighty three fantasy points per minute with CJ
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: and Kispur and all these guys off the court, but
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: he is mixing a lot more. It's basically him and
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: Kishon George running the point. He has a thirty two
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: percent on ball percentage over the last seven games, averaging
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: thirty five and a half minutes per game, which is amazing.
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: It's a huge increase. He was twenty seven minutes in
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: every game prior to the last seven, eleven point two
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: potential assists per game, so it's really hard to not
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: see a way where he's viable as a fantasy option
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: playing thirty seven plus minutes a night over the last
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: three So I think I do have interest in him.
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: I think trade Johnson you can get away from him
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: at fifty percent ownership or whatever he's looking at. I mean,
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: I don't mind the matchup for him, but he is
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: more of like a three point shooter. The Nuggets are
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: a team that you want to attack around the basket,
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: so I think there is a way to get away
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: from him. For sure, didn't shoot the ball great last
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: time out, but he's still playing around thirty minutes. So
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: it's a good, good role for Trey Johnson, but I
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: just don't really like that he's gonna get so much ownership.
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: And the same thing for Champennee. I think that his
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: the high end minutes for him might be a little
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: bit lower now with Middleton getting healthy. So I think
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: those two guys kind of have a negative correlation. And
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: Chris Middleton has kind of had the same a bigger
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: role than Champagne. He's more of like the three and
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: D rebounding guy. So I think I prefer Middleton over
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: Champagne tonight. Don't really have any thing negative saying him.
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: He fills some weak positions, but he's also getting a
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: ton of ownership. Middleton shouldn't be super high on I
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: just want to pull up the ownership real quick.
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: But I think he will be lower on the twenty
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: three percent we have or taken the average. Again, it's
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: it's still earlier in the day. We look at some
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: of this ownership and don't understand, but we have Champenne
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: forty seven, Middleton twenty three.
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that feels like a decent pivot to make if
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: you're considering one of those guys that power forward, like
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: Middleton is cheaper and it's not projecting much worse than CHAMPAGNEE.
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't necessarily know if that ownership gap will
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: be that big. Maybe it's like forty four twenty five,
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: but I do think Champagne will be higher. And I
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: can comfortably say that anytime a shooter is looking at
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: sixty percent ownership, I mean an a off shooting night.
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: He just scored ten Trey Johnson that is two games ago.
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: So like, I don't hate getting underweight there. How many
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: are you gonna make any rule? If you had four
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: wizards in the ship, are you fine with that?
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure. You got to wait to see how
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: it looks getting closer to Locke and building, but I
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: don't think that I would want to come in with
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: more than two of George Bubb and Trey Johnson. I
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: feel like those three guys are It's just a lot
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: of ownership that you're getting with playing all three of them.
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: And in some ways, like Kishon, George and Bub are
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: negatively correlated just because they're kind of competing for the
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: same stats but kind of similar for Trey Johnson. So
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: I think I want to come in with a max
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: two of those three guys and have to double check
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: and see how much Champagne and Middleton are overlapping. But
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: to me, they feel negatively correlated, So you could be
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: a max one of those two guys. I think that's it.
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: Like I'm fine having soar with with three Wizards.
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: Side negative point zero two according to sabers him Champagne
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: and Middleton. Oh I was also gonna mention Joe FanDuel
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: and Draftings big difference Joe Val thirty nine hundred on
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: fan Duel six point one k on DraftKings, Jovel will
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: be the chalkiest center more than likely on FanDuel, which
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: allows you to spend up for guys like Jamal Murray
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: a lot easier over there. So do uh like the
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: Wizards will be popular everywhere, but Jovell Murray and Aaron
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: Gordon will be I mean, Gordon and Murray are getting
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: ownership on DraftKings too, but there'll be some of the
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: chalkiest guys on FanDuel. Really big difference. Obviously, you can
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: only play one center on FanDuel, so something to note
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: if you're going anywhere. But Joevel, I mean, it's a
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: big enough slate. It's not like anywhere, but Joevel's low own.
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: But like sars just power forward. Let me see some
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: other just centersh man, if you're trying to spend up,
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: you got to like go to the singoons. The embd's
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: like really really different stuff. I focus more on a
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: mid tier pivot or something like that, or play a
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: star that you can play at center as well and
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: power forward, play met center something like that. But yeah,
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: thoughts on Joevel, assuming he starts, he's probably pretty strong.
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: Three point nine.
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: Kuh, sorry, who are you talking about Joevel?
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: If he starts, like a six point one k is
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: a big price. But on FanDuel, like you're not really
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: worried good point per minute guys first game back, like
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: you'd be fine plug him in.
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure, that's what I didn't realize was that
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: cheap on FanDuel.
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, let's keep a roll. The next game
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: on the slate, Houston Rockets and the Philadelphia seventy six Ers.
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: We are looking at. Where is this two and a
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: half point favorites of the Rockets two twenty one and
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: a half total. Steven Adams is out for the Houston side,
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: no one else to note. PG is questionable again for
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: the seventy six Ers. You were right when you talked
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: on the show on Tuesday that it wasn't just like
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: it's not just maintenance or stuff. That he's is banged
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: up and he missed both of the last two games
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: when he was questionable. I take it you have no
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: clue about today. We will get this news obviously before
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: Lockets seven Eastern. But yeah, I mean this game looks
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: terrible for DFS. Pretty much two fully healthy teams appropriately
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: priced I got nothing.
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think this one is the lowest over under
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: on the slate. I believe, Yeah, I mean it's Charlotte
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: and Orlando are pretty close, but yeah, this one feels
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: this is the lowest. So it feels it feels pretty gross.
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: I feel like there are a you can make the
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: case for the spend ups like Maxie Sangudin Embiid I
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: think are all in play but not smash plays by
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: any mean. I think you're gonna get probably better point
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: per dollars ceilings from some of the other guys at
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: their positions. The upside for Maxi's that he's playing so
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: many minutes and it's not a terrible matchup. The Rockets
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: are giving up a lot of pick and roll scoring
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: the season. Maxi's like a top ten pick and roll
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: scorer in the NBA. You're gonna see a lot of
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: Amen Thompson. I think Maxi and Amen are the two
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: they lead the league in minutes per game, so you
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: there's a chance that both these guys just play forty
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: plus tonight and match each other's minutes, Which is interesting
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: because obviously Maxi is a great permanent producer. Looked really
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: tired last game against the Suns, just had I didn't
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: really do that well either, but kind of grinded his
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: way to forty one Fantasy points. Forty three minutes on
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: a back to back is crazy, But yeah, I don't
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: mind the matchup for him, but not somebody. I'm going
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: out of my way to play thing for him, Beat
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: is just that he's matchup proof. It's a really tough matchup.
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: He's in really good interior defense, so I'm not I
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: don't like him as much as that like MAXI personally,
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: and then Seng Gooon, I think that his matchup is
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: actually pretty decent outside of having some foul risk. The
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: Sixers are much worse on defense with him Beat on
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: the court. There one of the worst room defenses in
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: the league, and over the last six games since returning
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: from injury, Sengun has seen an uptick in his rebounding rates,
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: averaging double digit boards in twelve and a half potential
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: assists per game, so he does have a few different outs.
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: Even if he's not getting the scoring going, he could
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: pretty good bed for a triple or a double double
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: with a chance for a triple double if the game
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: flows that way for him. So I'm I'm fine with
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: Seng Gun, and I think Amen is okay as well,
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: just because he's gonna play so many minutes. Rim defense
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: pretty weak for the Sixers. I think that he could
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: get some scoring going, But I don't really like the
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: price tags for these guys. I just think that it's
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: kind of a gross game all around, and you can
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: get you can go back to Ubra because he'll play
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: a ton of minutes. If Paul George were reported miss,
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: he's probably playing thirty four plus.
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: I'll definitely sign up for thirty four minutes of Kelly
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: Ubra one hundred percent there. So that's the only appeal
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: I got if there is no PGM, because you're like,
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: you'd rather Polo over any of these spins, right.
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, definitely, I think I prefer him over sngon similar
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: I think it's like the same price tag, same position too, So.
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, ownership's low on both guys. Yeah, I guess like
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: more flagship stuff if you're playing that flagship and you're
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: playing on a bunch of wizards and stuff, maybe this
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: is where you get the two percent one percent guy
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: that goes for sixty eight and is the difference maker.
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: So it's it's really hard in single entry stuff where
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: you don't have to be perfect, and more large field
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: stuff I don't hate. I guess sprinkling the spens, but
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: definitely does not look great on paper man. This I love.
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: In the YouTube chat, so put me in quote Chris said,
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: MMA show tonight, yep, big Marley and I will be
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: going live at eight forty five Eastern tonight talking MMA.
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: Super pumped for it back and I mean, look at it.
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: We got so many people. Williams in here, Splashes in here,
• 28:20

• 29:11
  Speaker 2: as well. They had Jake not splash. Oh god, sorry Jake.
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: All right, nothing else in that one. Let's go to Yeah,
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: definitely a little better game on the slate. You said
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: you got a lot of talk about the Warriors stuff.
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: Curious to hear what you have to say. We are
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: looking at let me refresh five and at point favorites.
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: The Warriors are favored two thirty four and a half total,
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: which is pretty good. Gary Payton's questionable. The only thing
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: there obviously Jimmy's out on the Dallas side. No Daniel
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: Gafford ownership in this or yeah, we'll go ownership. First
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: three guys, Steph, POD's Draymond all looking to get a
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: little bit, but after that, the game's not really looking
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: to get any ownership. So where do we have kaminga
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: obviously okay, yeah, he's not projected a start, so a
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: lot of this changes if he going to start, So
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: I'll let you talk through it and maybe I'll throw
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: some numbers in there if he does start or whatnot.
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's uh, it's obviously really gross anytime talking about
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: a Warriors team on the main slate, it's really tough
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: to feel confident in them. We even kind of talked
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: about it last dight, like I had a ton of
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: putt pods and I was happy to see him starting,
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: but didn't play well. They got blown out by the Raptors,
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: and you just don't really know what they're gonna do.
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: Like I don't think Steve Kurtin knows what he's going
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: to do going into the game. I don't think that
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: it was even the plan to play kaminga last game
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: because he didn't check in until the second quarter, and
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: then I think Quinn Post didn't see any minutes in
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: the second half, so it's just a very fluid rotation.
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: They played twelve guys in the first half, which is
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: just terrible for dfs. So I don't I don't want
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: to lean into any sort of ownership I saw like
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: you said, Draymond, give me one to chalk of your
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: own guys on the slate, Like he's fine, You're never
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: really getting buried by playing him. He's really not been
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: that great as a fantasy producer this season. Does have
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: the assist and rebounding upside to be in consideration at
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: his price tag, but I just don't I don't really
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: believe that he should be worthy of being one of
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: the highest on plays in the slate personally, so I
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: probably take him down a little bit. I do prefer
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: Pods if getting to one of the guys that is
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: getting ownership because he's only five point three game been
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: playing really well, has much more upside both from like
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: a scoring standpoint, but a fantasy production standpoint over Draymond
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: in my opinion, even if he comes off the bench
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: or season starting line. But I feel like his role
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: is pretty solidified and you can attack Dallas with guards
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: man the guys that are going to be playing on
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: ball because the Dallas and defense is kind of one
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: of the biggest gaps from how they give up points.
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: They're allowing the third least three point frequency in the
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: NBA while being a bottom seven rim defense. The number
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: definitely grows a little bit when you take off Ad
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: take off Daniel Gafford. So the Warriors is going to
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: have to figure out a different way to score because
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: the Warriors are first in offensive three point frequency this season,
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: fourth and rim scoring, So you got to wonder what
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: it's gonna be the game plan. Dallas kind of sells
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: out to stop the three so for that reason, kind
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: of I think it's a little bit of a worst
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: matchup for Curry, but he can obviously do a lot
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: more than just shoot. I don't think that we've seen
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: We obviously have not seen the big ceiling game from
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: Steph without Jimmy yet, but we know that it's in there.
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: And nine K is a good price site for a
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: guy that has like forty plus real points scoring upside
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: and probably sixty to seventy DK point upside. I just
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: wonder if it's gonna come in a game where a
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: Dallas like a Dallas defense is going to try to
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: stop him shooting the threes. Like maybe it comes with
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: the peripheral stats. Maybe he adds more assists than normal
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: and then gets like like twenty eight and ten or
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: something like that, which we know he's capable of. So
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: I'm fine with Steph for sure. And then I think
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: you have to keep an eye on the starting lineup
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: for guys like Meltson, Moses Moody and Kaminga. Like I
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: said up top, I feel like there's a chance COMINGA starts,
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: and if he does, he's way underprice. Even even if
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: the minutes like are shaky, we know that he's got
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: a ton of upside, So I'd be playing cominga a
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: ton if I knew that he was going to be
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: starting tonight. I feel like four point five k for
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: how he gets scoring too is a very drive heavy wing.
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: I feel like he could definitely get some easy points
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: up against this Dallas defense. I'm interested in KAMINGA for sure.
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: What a percent do you like? Are you gonna put
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: him at starting? Are you gonna raise that projection pre
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: hoping that because it's thirty minutes after lock, assuming it's
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: right at thirty, If it like the starting line comes
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: out an hour before forty five minutes, we're all playing
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: the same game. Everyone knows that. But assuming we don't
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: have the news, projections don't update, like a lot of
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: stuff's being locked in early, so you just plug him
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: and then you just have to make pivots. Obviously you
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: have Draymond right there. That's a little more expensive, but
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: there's still later games like forcing yourself to have a
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: couple of positions open and plugging in KAMINGA. What's your
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: approach on that.
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you probably just have to take the chance on it.
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: I feel like he's in the rotation regardless, so maybe
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: you take like a like a middling projection, give him
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: a couple more minutes than he's projected right now, maybe
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: like the twenty three minute range, that should get you
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: plenty of him. I feel like, Okay, you also have
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: the uh, the Spurs guys that you could pivot off of. Yeah,
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: because they are getting a little bit of ownerships. You
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: might even be starting with some San Antonio guys. They
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: are a little bit more expensive. Kelvin Johnson will be
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: the CLO the most comparable, most comparable position position in
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: price wise, so you do. Yeah, you kind of need
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: multiple positions open, but you should have some pieces to
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: swap on. You got the Minnesota stuff, san Antonio, Wenbee, Castle,
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: Fox all gonna be getting a good amount of ownership,
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: so you should have enough to swap onto.
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: I feel like, yeah, especially if you're limiting yourself to
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: for you Wizards. I mean, if you're if you're gonna
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: be lighter on that, and then you definitely will.
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I think that's it for the Warrior's side, Dallas,
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: I'm not too interested in it. I think Flag like
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: he was supposed to be around twenty to twenty five
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: minutes in his return with the ankle injury got to thirty.
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: He had twenty eight in that game against the Knicks.
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: I don't know where they're gonna settle. It looks like
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: people are projecting him as full tonight. I would probably
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: take a more cautious approach there, and he's getting a
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: little bit of ownerships. I don't really think I want
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: to go to Flag. The Warriors are playing pretty bad
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: on defense right now, so there's a chance that somebody
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: has a good game, but I don't know if it's
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: gonna be good enough on this late. Flag and PJ
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: would be the two guys I have the most interest in.
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: But then also I think Christy deserves a little bit
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: of love because the Warriors are giving up some more
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: threes right now over the last two games are given
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: up like I forgot, the numbers might be in like
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: the seventeen ish range of threes per game. And he's
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: just coming off of arguably his best game of his
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: career eight for ten from three against the Knicks in
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: the Garden was really really good to see thirty five
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: minutes there. So he's got high minutes upside and some
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: pretty good scoring upside. We talked about him a few
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: weeks ago in like for a showdown where there's been
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: a lot of positive coach speak from Jason Kidd about
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: wanting him to take more threes because he's shooting like
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: forty five forty four percent from deep this season, so
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: he's just a really, really good shooter. It makes sense
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: to give him more more looks. I think that they
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: want him to get up to ten a game, so
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: there's definitely a lot of scoring upside for him, So
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: I'll be keeping him in the playpool as well.
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: Nice. So if you went Christy Steph Pods, is that
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: that's fine? Three three in this game? Yeah, that's way.
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: That's way over ownership. I would say I boosted Draymond's
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: ownership down a little, like he's gonna be owned for sure.
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: Oh actually the latest update boosted down a little from
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: forty one to thirty six, so I did refresh and
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: it's coming in. But I definitely will be owned forty
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: one percent or like with higher than some of these wizards.
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: I'm not I'm not necessarily necessarily sold on that, but yeah,
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: Curry Pods and Christy, there you go. You can play
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: three in this game at ownership. That'll be very overweight.
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: What uh what like fantasy projection, would you be upset
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: for not having Draymond? Or like what if he had
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: a final score of like thirty three or four? Yeah?
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean thirty four. I think, Uh, I mean
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: by you're not like you're not crushed like we just
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: talked about with the piss and stuff yesterday. So I mean, yeah,
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: where are you like really kicking yourself? Probably thirty eight,
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: But I think there's slates where he gets thirty six,
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: and I can see this being high enough scoring where
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: he gets thirty six and yeah, I mean like maybe
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: he's on the team, maybe he's not. A couple teams
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: in the top ten have him and don't and stuff
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: like that. What do you think?
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, probably like thirty six plus. I feel like you'd
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: probably want him.
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I definitely would want if I know
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: he's scoring thirty six. I mean, I'm playing eighty five percent.
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: Maybe I don't know, like a known outcome like that,
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: but I don't think it's ninety five percent to be
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: optimal on this light. I do think there's enough value
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: in mid tier stuff for sure that can't compete. I
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: also think, what are your thoughts here? If Kminga starts that,
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: that hurts Draymond. His rebounding percent goes down a little bit,
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: maybe touch time usage or do you see it differently.
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: I don't.
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: It wouldn't hurt his rebounding percentage, but probably usage of
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: usage for sure would hurt everybody, just because he is
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: a guy that demands pretty high usage. But I can
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: pull up the numbers of what it actually looks like
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: when they share the court together. It's it's different than
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: having Jimmy out there like they're not. It's not a
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: one for one skill set. It's more so Cominga. They
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: need him out there for scoring. They don't. They never
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: really liked having Kminga and Draymond Shore in the court
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: together just because Cominga is not enough of a floor spacer.
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: But I think you might just have to live and
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: like live with what he gives you.
• 38:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I agree. I think they're going to have
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: to try. I think it's better than really their other options.
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: All right, we'll keep it rolling. Two games left on
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: the slid. Appreciate him. We're hanging out three hundred watching.
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: After this game is when I'll make a make a
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: pretty cool announcement for people. So after this game is
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: when we'll do that. Very exciting stuff being added for
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: Ship and Nation. Before that, though, we are talking about
• 39:24
  Speaker 2: the Minnesota Timberwolves eight and NAF point favorites over the
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: Chicago Bulls two thirty seven and a half total in
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: this one. Patrick Williams questionable on the Chicago side, Julius
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: Randall questionable on the Minnesota side. That's pretty big news,
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: I'll just say, or I'll ask you right away. Do
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: you have a lean on that? Because a lot of
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: spots will roster spots will be filled early, and if
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: there's no Julius Randall like ant who already looks pretty solid,
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: and I think a good spend would be very elite
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: nas reed Jaden McDaniels like, there'd be bumps for sure.
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: So any thoughts on Randall's Q take.
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: I haven't seen enough of of reporting about his injuries,
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: so I'm not really sure. But with Minnesota being favored
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: by eight and a half, I feel like that indicates
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: that he's in. Chicago's been playing decently as of late,
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: and they're getting giddiback, so you'd think that the spread
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: will be a little bit closer, especially Minnesota coming off
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: of a loss to the jazz you think that the
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: spread's closer. But yeah, I think that he's probably in.
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: But like you said, like if you wait around and
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: you get it right, you're getting really really good ownership
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: and a ton of production from multiple positions. On the
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: Minnesota six, I think it's a really strong spot for them,
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: So I don't really have a strong lean there, but
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: YE kind of hope that he's out because I like
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: the Minnesota stuff a lot.
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: Would you play any Julius Randall? Do you think that's
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: worth taking the risk on? I guess when you play on,
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: like you want other pieces to have or like you
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: want other roster spots to be able to swap and
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: stuff too. In singletary that's easy, but in your mm
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: E one fifty, where it's like a little harder to
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: do that stuff. Are you going to keep Randall's projection
• 40:58
  Speaker 2: normal and run it whatever you get you get?
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, probably, just because I don't think there's enough enough
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: places to pivot if you don't if you don't get right, Yeah, okay,
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: But yeah, like you said, if you play him, you
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: probably you're probably gonna want like one like to two
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: other Minnesota guys, a Chicago guy and like one or
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: two spurs Utah guys, just to give yourself the most
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: flexibility to change things around, because then you're talking about
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: getting nasrid at six point two k that might allow
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: you to get up to Wemby and things like that.
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: So I think, you know, like if you should probably
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: be setting some sort of rule to where you can
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: pivot off of a lot of Julius Randall to these guys.
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: One hundred percent, uh and to Wemby and then you
• 41:40
  Speaker 2: can just break down this game.
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: I think Wemby tonight, but I love Ant two. I
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: think it's a really great matchup for him, and you
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: definitely can play both to them. This late is not hard,
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: yeah uh yeah, So I think this is definitely a
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: good probably the best game environment as a whole. Like
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: I think Chicago is playing good enough offense right now
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: and the Minnesota side are struggling enough defensively. It's where
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: this game does stay close and we get full minutes
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: from everybody, and we know that Chicago likes to play
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: fast places fast paced. Minnesota plays pretty fast as well.
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: But yeah, there the Wolves are the twenty second ranked
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: defense over the last two weeks, but third on offense.
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: Bulls are thirteenth on defense, second in offense over the
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: last two weeks. I think it's gonna be a little
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: bit tougher to get DFS worthy scores from the Chicago
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: side when you add in Josh Giddy, But I think
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: that they have enough offensive firepower for the game itself
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: to be close, So I do have interest in the
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: Wolves for DFS. I'll say that if you're going to
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: play anybody in Chicago, I think it's going to be
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: Vouch in a close game. He usually is putting up
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: a fine enough score, and then some of the guards
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: like Giddy, and I don't think you're really playing Giddy
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: coming back after a long absence, but maybe Kobe White.
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: Wolves are dead last and pick and roll defense, so
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: that's kind of how you want to attack them with guards.
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: Kobe White's been playing a lot better lately. I just
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: wonder how much of a negative impact having Giddy on
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: the court, because he just demands so much touch time.
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: He has a ball in his hands so much when
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: he's out there that you might be it might be
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: tougher to get a good score from Kobe White at
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: six point seven k But on the Wolf side, I
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: think it's much better. I love the spot for Aunt,
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: very drive heavy guard balls are a huge room funnel.
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: They have been all season long. They're aligning the fourth
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: most fantasy points to shooting guards this season. And then
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: if Randall were to miss, I think he's fine even
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: with Randall in the lineup, but you get the added
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: benefit of Randal potentially missing. He averaged fifty one DK
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: points per game without Randall last season. SE's a plus
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: three point six usage increase, one point six assists, and
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: has a one point three to two fantasy point form
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: into production. So very very strong role for Aunt. If
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: Randall were to miss. I think Gobert definitely deserves some
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: attention as well. He averaged just under forty DK points
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: without Randall last season, and it's a really good matchup
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: for centers. We've looked attack Vooch all season long. Gobert
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: is playing really good basketball right now, and I think
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: he could get some scoring going against the rim funnel
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: defense like them, They're also allowing a ton of reboundst
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: opposing centers, So good spot all around for Gobert tonight. Yeah,
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: and then kind of same thing for Nas, Like Nas
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: is in play regardless, then you get if random were
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: to miss, then he would be one of the best
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: players in the entire slate in my opinion at six
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: point two K probably don't think I have too much
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: interest in Dante and Jada McDaniels, but I would if
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: I knew that Random Ward to be out, I would
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: be playing a ton of Joan Barringer. I'm not sure
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: if I pronounced his last name right, but there's been
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: a a lot of talk from like the Minnesota Beat
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: Riders about they're asking Finch a lot of questions about him,
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: and he'll say, like, when guys are in, he's not
• 44:47
  Speaker 1: gonna play a lot, but when they're out, they'll find
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: minutes for him. If Random were to miss, then you're
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: kind of solidifying him as the backup center, which should
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: be around eighteen to twenty minutes depending on how Gobert
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: is playing. That'd be really interesting for me because I
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: think he's he's got a ton of upside just in
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: the in the NBA, but for sure from fantasy production standpoint,
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: he looks like a pretty pretty solid fantasy producer. So
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: I'd have interest in Barringer if I knew early on
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: that ran over to miss.
• 45:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's why you come and watch Rio Talks and NBA.
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: No one is talking about John Behringer today, John Johan,
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: what is it?
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: I think it's Joan. His last name might spell there,
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: might be pronounce a little differently.
• 45:27
  Speaker 2: That's Joan Barringer.
• 45:29
  Speaker 1: I know, i'f a little next in here. He can
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: tell us because he's the Wolves guy.
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: The thing about him, I mean, it's it's so hard
• 45:38
  Speaker 2: to get him on the main slate because there's two centers. Granted,
• 45:41
  Speaker 2: one of them is like Stars really strong early, Wemby's
• 45:45
  Speaker 2: really strong late, but like none of them are value.
• 45:47
  Speaker 2: Like you'd have to get this news at some point
• 45:50
  Speaker 2: and have like four open spots or whatever, and then
• 45:53
  Speaker 2: I mean you can flip it if you have like
• 45:55
  Speaker 2: Wemby and no aunt and then you get Randall. You
• 45:58
  Speaker 2: could play Barringer at the center instead of Wemby or
• 46:02
  Speaker 2: at the util position if you already played someone else.
• 46:04
  Speaker 2: Then you spend up at other spots that you have
• 46:06
  Speaker 2: more value and make it work. I mean, I don't know,
• 46:09
  Speaker 2: plan it out. It's a lot easier to plan with
• 46:11
  Speaker 2: your single entry type stuff. He's gonna be like point
• 46:14
  Speaker 2: zero five percent. Maybe it's not the slate. I mean,
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: if he does get the start, or like some you
• 46:20
  Speaker 2: wouldn't even get the start. But if Julius Randall's out,
• 46:25
  Speaker 2: I still think you would probably be like two percent,
• 46:27
  Speaker 2: regardless of what he's projected. If that so, that's interesting.
• 46:31
  Speaker 2: Shout out to Rio for a hit in GEM maybe,
• 46:33
  Speaker 2: but it's harder to get. I think the more interesting
• 46:35
  Speaker 2: things is just playing Nas, just playing Ant, just playing
• 46:39
  Speaker 2: go Baer. I mean, they're not bad plays even if
• 46:41
  Speaker 2: Randall's in, and you get really big bumps if they're out.
• 46:44
  Speaker 2: So yeah, I think the Timberwolves are really good on
• 46:46
  Speaker 2: this late you have to prioritize them being an hour
• 46:49
  Speaker 2: later than these first games at Lock that are appealing.
• 46:53
  Speaker 2: And yeah, it can only get better for him if
• 46:55
  Speaker 2: there is no Randalls, So I think it's strong. Clicking
• 46:58
  Speaker 2: a Chicago name seems very difficult to me though, with
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: gideiback All. Right, now that we got one game left, Rio,
• 47:06
  Speaker 2: I think it's time to introduce drum roll. Drum Roll.
• 47:10
  Speaker 2: I think new One's is gonna like this. It's similar
• 47:12
  Speaker 2: to what he does, but we want another piece of
• 47:15
  Speaker 2: content for the NBA streets. And this is completely automated.
• 47:19
  Speaker 2: It's all numbers. There's no human opinion based in it,
• 47:22
  Speaker 2: and it's gonna be a DVP sheet. So at five
• 47:25
  Speaker 2: Eastern today, in thirteen minutes, NBA, you're gonna, oh, it's
• 47:30
  Speaker 2: right here, defensive. I don't think anything's loaded or should
• 47:33
  Speaker 2: I try and click on it?
• 47:34
  Speaker 1: Uh, you can click on it. I'm not sure it
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: might already be loaded. Let's see this, Yes it is,
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: let's go, so new DVP sheet.
• 47:44
  Speaker 2: What this is is based on projected starting lineups and
• 47:48
  Speaker 2: it will be updated with different starting lineups. The top
• 47:51
  Speaker 2: six players against the defense at that position will be here.
• 47:56
  Speaker 2: So today Utah is the worst against point guard Darren
• 48:00
  Speaker 2: Fox is the number one on that sheet. Yeah, you
• 48:03
  Speaker 2: can keep explaining it or if I misspoke at all,
• 48:06
  Speaker 2: but it's all automated. There's no human opinion based in it,
• 48:10
  Speaker 2: and it will constantly update with starting lineups. Tell me
• 48:14
  Speaker 2: if I misspoke anywhere, talk about it. You and our
• 48:17
  Speaker 2: guys behind the scenes have helped build this, So shout
• 48:19
  Speaker 2: out to you. I think it's very very cool piece
• 48:21
  Speaker 2: of content and I always love all numbers, no opinions
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: in it, and that's exactly what this is. So yeah,
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: shout out to you. Shout out to the team behind
• 48:29
  Speaker 2: the scenes. You can see it's already up on the site.
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: NBA Defense versus Position yet anything you want to.
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: Say, no, yeah, you broke it down beautifully. This is
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: something that we had kind of tabled over the last
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: season or two, just not really have enough time to
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: add it, but me and some of the guys behind
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: the scenes were working on it wanted to get added
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: to the site as just another piece of the puzzle.
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: It's not an end all be all. It's just somewhere
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: you can go to kind of, you know, maybe add
• 48:57
  Speaker 1: some one v one opinions to your your process or
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: if it's you know, some confirmation biased things, whatever, whatever
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: you want it to be. I think it's just one
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: place to go to kind of see top plays at
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: each position. Just an added benefit to being a member
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: over here. I'm gonna I'm definitely excited to use it
• 49:14
  Speaker 1: kind of already been like DVP stuff part of my process.
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: Some people say it means nothing, We've got a lot
• 49:20
  Speaker 1: of shit for that last year, but it's definitely pretty
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: big in the NBA, so we're excited to have that added.
• 49:26
  Speaker 2: This is a very good question. What's the duration. It's all,
• 49:30
  Speaker 2: it's the season's current numbers. Yeah, perfect, great question. Yeah,
• 49:36
  Speaker 2: Jordan's on the same page. DVP matters doesn't know why
• 49:39
  Speaker 2: people don't listen. Yeah, I'm definitely definitely listening to my MEMORYO.
• 49:43
  Speaker 2: When it comes to the NBA streets, very few watch
• 49:45
  Speaker 2: it as much as him Little Neck, who does our
• 49:48
  Speaker 2: NBA content Showdown content Monday through Friday, I mean crushes
• 49:51
  Speaker 2: main Slay two always in the discord. It definitely pays
• 49:54
  Speaker 2: the watch have some ioball obviously projections ownership, what we
• 49:58
  Speaker 2: have over here, constantly getting up updates in being around
• 50:00
  Speaker 2: your computer very very important in the NBA streets as well.
• 50:04
  Speaker 2: But yeah, great community. You can get as low in
• 50:07
  Speaker 2: you can get over in the Shiping Nation for as
• 50:09

• 50:21
  Speaker 2: It'll say join the nation. You can see all the options.
• 50:24
  Speaker 2: We would absolutely love to have you comes with Sabersim
• 50:27
  Speaker 2: and the Discord as well. Last Game of the Nights
• 50:30
  Speaker 2: San Antonio Spurs Oop let me refresh as quick, and
• 50:34
  Speaker 2: the Utah Jazz. It's actually not the last game of
• 50:38
  Speaker 2: the night. There's two games later and the showdown content,
• 50:40
  Speaker 2: but for the main slate, it's the last game. Twelve
• 50:43
  Speaker 2: and n point favorites are the Spurs two thirty six
• 50:45
  Speaker 2: and a half total in this one. Spur side Luke
• 50:48
  Speaker 2: Cornett is questionable, soak or so can no Cornette out
• 50:52
  Speaker 2: soacan questionable really doesn't mean too much. On the Utah side,
• 50:57
  Speaker 2: marketing is still out and then Bryce sense the ball
• 50:59
  Speaker 2: and George are questionable. Yeah. I mean, if there's no
• 51:03
  Speaker 2: Keyante Collier, Matt Boy, he's probably gonna play him even
• 51:07
  Speaker 2: without the news. It's on an island though, it's one
• 51:09
  Speaker 2: hour after every other game, so yeah, I guess just
• 51:13
  Speaker 2: take it away, like can you can you play Kiante?
• 51:16
  Speaker 2: How can you go about these Q tags? Obviously, Spurs
• 51:19
  Speaker 2: side looks strong though, and Wemby will be one of
• 51:22
  Speaker 2: the more popular players on the slate.
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that the Jazz, I mean, anytime they're
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: on a slate, you're gonna have a lot of interest.
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: On the other side of the game, Jazz have been
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: playing some competitive basketball lately, but there also is a
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: ton of blowout risk here and I think you would
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: kind of be pretty upset if you played Wemby or
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: Cash or Fox in a blowout because you're not getting
• 51:44
  Speaker 1: obviously not getting the full run. But it's the kiante
• 51:48
  Speaker 1: q tag matters a ton because I think they would
• 51:50
  Speaker 1: be it's gonna be really tough for them to stay
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: competitive without him out there. Losing your best scorer and
• 51:57
  Speaker 1: probably the best player on the team now would obviously
• 51:59
  Speaker 1: be bad. But if all things were equal, and I
• 52:03
  Speaker 1: know I'm getting full minutes from all the guys in
• 52:05
  Speaker 1: the Spurs, I have a ton of interest in all
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: of them, but Wemby I think is really really good.
• 52:09
  Speaker 1: The Jazz are dead last or one of the worst
• 52:11
  Speaker 1: three point defense in the league. I believe they're BTTOM three,
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: giving up a ton of transition scoring, high turnover team.
• 52:17
  Speaker 1: Spurs are playing really good on both ends of the court,
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: top six defense over the last two weeks. Kind of
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: struggling a little bit on offense. But Wenby is getting healthier,
• 52:25
  Speaker 1: got up to thirty minutes last game. I think the
• 52:27
  Speaker 1: way that you want to attack the Spurs with Wemby
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: on the court, it's really tough to get to the
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: basket while he's out there. Obviously, just a huge human
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: being really great shot blockers, so you're gonna want to
• 52:35
  Speaker 1: attack them with three point shooters. Jazz don't really have
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: a ton of great ones outside of Kiante. I think
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: Ace is pretty solid. Vas Okay, Philkowski can stretch it,
• 52:45
  Speaker 1: but since Bah, it's kind of the big one. With Loriot,
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: he's the guy that is the best from beyond the arc,
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: but he's also questionable. Yeah, I mean, I'll talk to
• 52:55
  Speaker 1: the Jazz stuff first, because if Kant is out, you're
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: definitely gonna want to have interest in Isaiah Collier. I
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: think he's gonna play regardless. Like the backup point guard
• 53:03
  Speaker 1: minutes are flip flopping a ton when when Collier is
• 53:06
  Speaker 1: not starting. They did that a couple of times where
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: he had him starting over speed, which kind of solidifies
• 53:12
  Speaker 1: Walter Clayton Junior's minutes. But if Collier is coming off
• 53:15
  Speaker 1: the bench, then it's just a coin toss on who
• 53:17
  Speaker 1: it's going to be getting the backup punt guard minutes.
• 53:19
  Speaker 1: I don't think that Clayton will would even check in
• 53:22
  Speaker 1: until the eight minute mark in the second quarter. That's
• 53:25
  Speaker 1: what I saw the last time Collier was off the bench.
• 53:28
  Speaker 1: But yeah, if Kiante's out, I expect Collier to start.
• 53:31
  Speaker 1: Clayton Judor would pick up a pretty big role off
• 53:33
  Speaker 1: the bench as well. Those two guys would be the
• 53:35
  Speaker 1: main value pieces I'm looking at. But if you are
• 53:39
  Speaker 1: playing Kiance or Nurkic, you definitely want to pair them
• 53:42
  Speaker 1: up with some Spurs guys just to give for one,
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: to give yourself some outs to play some value if
• 53:48
  Speaker 1: Kiante is out. But also those guys are getting there
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: in a close game environment, so you're getting full run
• 53:53
  Speaker 1: from the Spurs guys as well. So that's what I'd
• 53:55
  Speaker 1: be looking to do if at least one of Kyanti
• 53:57
  Speaker 1: or nurk at least at least one maybe two of
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: like Wemby Castle Fox, probably even tossing the Champagnee in
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: there as well. Yeah, I don't really have a lot
• 54:09
  Speaker 1: to add on the Utah Siur right now. I feel
• 54:11
  Speaker 1: like you can play Ace at five point four K
• 54:15
  Speaker 1: because he's starting and playing a lot of minutes right now.
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: It's honestly playing really well. The numbers, like the Fantasy numbers,
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: haven't been great. You're not really getting like huge outcomes
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: from him. But yeah, he's been fun to watch and
• 54:26
  Speaker 1: he had some pretty sick highlight plays last game, so
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: I think he's okay, not great. I definitely have a
• 54:32
  Speaker 1: lot more interests in Spurs. I think Wenby is an
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: elite option at nine point seven K if I knew
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: that he was playing full minutes tonight. Just has a
• 54:39
  Speaker 1: lot of ways to get to get there. He's rebounding
• 54:41
  Speaker 1: the ball well, shooting the ball a lot better. I
• 54:45
  Speaker 1: think you put up what thirty three to ten and
• 54:47
  Speaker 1: one against the Jazz the last time they faced four
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: stocks in that game, just under sixty DK points. He's
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: averaging just under fifty seven DK points in twenty seven
• 54:56
  Speaker 1: minutes versus the Jazz this season, so that's like over two.
• 55:00
  Speaker 1: It's two fantasy points per minute, which is just crazy
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: for anybody. But yeah, Wenby is a guy that can
• 55:05
  Speaker 1: do that, so I do have interest in him for sure.
• 55:08
  Speaker 1: Castle and Fox are in a great spot. If you
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: look at the DVP sheet, they'll be at the top
• 55:12
  Speaker 1: of the list. I like those both those guys. A
• 55:15
  Speaker 1: ton Castle's had the slightly stronger role this month, a
• 55:18
  Speaker 1: little bit more touch time, slightly more assist and potential
• 55:21
  Speaker 1: assists per game. Rebounding edge it goes to Fox and
• 55:25
  Speaker 1: Fox has had the better track record against Utah this season.
• 55:28
  Speaker 1: He missed one game but put up forty one DK
• 55:30
  Speaker 1: points the last time they faced off. For his Castle
• 55:33
  Speaker 1: in that thirty four range, there's a little bit, a
• 55:36
  Speaker 1: little bit of leverage playing Fox over Castle. He's more
• 55:38
  Speaker 1: expensive and half of the ownership. I do like Castle
• 55:42
  Speaker 1: more just because I think that he's got a much
• 55:45
  Speaker 1: higher upside when he does get there. He has more
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: rebounding and assist upside on a regular basis. But I
• 55:51
  Speaker 1: definitely will get some Fox tonight. I'm fine playing those
• 55:54
  Speaker 1: guys together, but I think it's gonna be a max
• 55:55
  Speaker 1: two of Wenby Castle on Fox. Then Harper should be
• 55:59
  Speaker 1: tossed into the group with Cason Fox. It's a max
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: two of those three guards, and I think that he
• 56:03
  Speaker 1: is in play as well. Has a little bit of
• 56:05
  Speaker 1: chance to play blow out run playing back to like
• 56:08
  Speaker 1: the low twenties minutes again and it's a really great
• 56:10
  Speaker 1: spot for guards, So he's definitely in play.
• 56:13
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure I quite believe this ownership though. On
• 56:18
  Speaker 2: the Spurs, I believe Wemby's and I believe I mean Castle.
• 56:24
  Speaker 2: We might even be a little light on a twenty one,
• 56:26
  Speaker 2: but I don't think Harper is thirty two or yeah,
• 56:28
  Speaker 2: Caldon's twenty four, Fox is twenty four. Like what do
• 56:32
  Speaker 2: we have? What's Washington? I mean they did bump Washington's ownership,
• 56:38
  Speaker 2: so we have been getting some updates, so I do
• 56:40
  Speaker 2: like to see that. Do you do you have any
• 56:41
  Speaker 2: takes on that spurs? And I am I off on it.
• 56:43
  Speaker 2: Do you think Harper and Caldon and Fox are really
• 56:46
  Speaker 2: this high own and there's no way Castle's the fifth
• 56:48
  Speaker 2: highest spur?
• 56:49
  Speaker 1: I mean no, yeah, he'll he'll probably be probably the most.
• 56:54
  Speaker 1: I think he probably gets the most ownership.
• 56:55
  Speaker 2: Maybe Webby but maybe maybe it's uh.
• 57:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm just running some lamps right now to see
• 57:03
  Speaker 1: if they're even hitting optimals because they're not projected like
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: elite values by any means, so it could just be
• 57:09
  Speaker 1: like a slate thing. But you do we have Penda
• 57:12
  Speaker 1: now as a cheap, cheap forward, and then those the
• 57:17
  Speaker 1: Washington guys, you'd be surprised if they come in as
• 57:19
  Speaker 1: highs they're projected. It's probably gonna be maybe five points
• 57:23
  Speaker 1: less for each one.
• 57:24
  Speaker 2: It is uh like you said though, if you are
• 57:26
  Speaker 2: trying to get the Randall stuff right, like if he
• 57:29
  Speaker 2: misses them playing some nas reads or I mean, like again,
• 57:33
  Speaker 2: you can play those guys kamingas. Maybe that's a little
• 57:35
  Speaker 2: better option, I guess at five point thirty if we
• 57:37
  Speaker 2: don't get the news, but like you can just revert
• 57:40
  Speaker 2: to the Spurs game, like a lot of these guys
• 57:42
  Speaker 2: are solid plays, and like maybe even some of the
• 57:45
  Speaker 2: thinner not thinner, but Likekeldon's or like these guys if
• 57:49
  Speaker 2: it does bowl out, who uh, which some of these
• 57:52
  Speaker 2: guys are getting normal rotation that will play a little
• 57:55
  Speaker 2: blowed or a little later into the game.
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: Any of these guys like ah, I remember, Yeah, it'd
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: probably be Harper and Carter Bryant are the only two.
• 58:05
  Speaker 2: And it's hard to play Carter bryan right now. So
• 58:07
  Speaker 2: Harper is the one that you feel best set there.
• 58:09
  Speaker 2: That's value though, But if it was in the utail position,
• 58:12
  Speaker 2: he's four to two and Kaminga's four to two or
• 58:14
  Speaker 2: four to four, four or five. Yeah, so I mean
• 58:18
  Speaker 2: that if you had in utail, could be a direct pivot.
• 58:20
  Speaker 2: But yeah, I'm just thinking it through. Obviously, Washington stuff
• 58:24
  Speaker 2: is really strong. Contrarian spend this Utah Philly or Houston
• 58:28
  Speaker 2: Philly game bad Some contrarian spens if you want low
• 58:31
  Speaker 2: ownership though first game Paulo, the LaMelo news is important
• 58:37
  Speaker 2: though if he misses some stuff would be opened up
• 58:39
  Speaker 2: on Charlotte' stuff. There really is just no spens on
• 58:42
  Speaker 2: the slate when you sort by salary, Tyrese MAXI ten K.
• 58:46
  Speaker 2: But then Jamal Wemby, I mean you have Wizard's value,
• 58:49
  Speaker 2: you have value on the slate, and you don't really
• 58:51
  Speaker 2: have too many spends. So it's kind of going to
• 58:53
  Speaker 2: be more concentrated of a six game slate then than
• 58:58
  Speaker 2: most six game slates I think. But yeah, I really
• 59:01
  Speaker 2: like your point about yesterday and the Pistons only one
• 59:03
  Speaker 2: being on the winner in the flagship versus four. I
• 59:06
  Speaker 2: think you said, like they had good games, but how
• 59:08
  Speaker 2: many people in your contest one fifty max versus single
• 59:11
  Speaker 2: entry versus three max payout structures all that's really important
• 59:15
  Speaker 2: to look at and should kind of steer you in
• 59:18
  Speaker 2: which direction, whether it be more chalky, to get more different,
• 59:21
  Speaker 2: take more chances back loading all that stuff. So great
• 59:24
  Speaker 2: job Rio as always. Any other final thoughts. Very excited
• 59:27
  Speaker 2: to get that DVP automated tool up there as well,
• 59:32
  Speaker 2: and again that's going to be refresh based on projected
• 59:35
  Speaker 2: starting lineups right now. When they come in, it will
• 59:37
  Speaker 2: constantly be refreshed. So yeah, anything anything else for you?
• 59:41
  Speaker 1: Uh yeah, I just want to clarify it was there
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: was two on the winner in the large field GVP.
• 59:46
  Speaker 1: I was talking about like the perfect lineup because oh okay,
• 59:49
  Speaker 1: I like to check that. Yeah, there's only only one there, okay.
• 59:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and then when there's a couple point five people
• 59:54
  Speaker 2: percent people like that, you don't know, you don't necessarily
• 59:57
  Speaker 2: need those. So two were on the winner.
• 59:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean like three thirty was the winning score
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 1: in the main tournament and the perfect line was like
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 1: three sixty one, so nobody was getting close to that.
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 2: No, definitely not. What's up, ax Tron, Good to see
