  Speaker 2: A US say, let's go where is it? There we go, Brittany.

  Speaker 3: If anyone doesn't know what I'm talking about, we got
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: just wrapped up the gold medal Woman's Canada versus USA.
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: What a game?
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: Ot, I'm sorry, Tambo more than likely probably have it
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: when it comes to the guys, hopefully not hoping to
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: see that in the gold medal game. But let's go
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: the Woman's. What a sick game. That was two minutes left.
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: Pulled the goalie, got the job done.
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm pumped. I'm also pumped.
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: MBA is back and all that is why people are
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: tuning in and watching this seven games on or on
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: the way back. First day back. We are back, Jordan,
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: I appreciate you. We got Sean salivn wins a lot,
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: Deacon Ricky in here, we got golf coming back after
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: the suspended play life is good, Sports are back, NBA
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: is back.
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: Rio, How is your break? Probably much needed?
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: You absolutely grind so I imagine you had a little nice rest,
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: But yeah, I'm excited for it to be back in
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: a nice seven games.
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: Slate to kick it off.
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: Yeah, definitely had a nice little reset. Did a little
• 1:39
  Speaker 4: bit of golfing. Been moving a lot of stuff up
• 1:42
  Speaker 4: to the new spot. I was telling you about pre shows.
• 1:45
  Speaker 4: I'll be in a new location pretty soon. Seeah, pretty
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: busy last couple of days, but you had definitely nice
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: to get a little break there, a nice little reset
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: and just kind of reflect on the first half of
• 1:55
  Speaker 4: the season and then get prepared for the second half,
• 1:57
  Speaker 4: which I think is going to be a lot of
• 2:00
  Speaker 4: what we saw in like the last two weeks heating
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: up to the All Star break, but just amplified. You
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: got a a lot of tanking implications, So definitely gonna
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: be difficult for some of these teams to break down,
• 2:12
  Speaker 4: but definitely looking forward to it. And I got to
• 2:14
  Speaker 4: kick it back to you. I know we already talked
• 2:16
  Speaker 4: appre show a little bit, but yeah, obviously you had
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: a kid, So congratulations to you and Maddie. Very excited
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: for you guys. But how you've been getting used to
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: the dad life?
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I appreciate. I appreciate a lot of people in here. Yeah,
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: little talker town, Tucker is the name it was over Weston.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: It's great. I mean, what a blessing.
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: Having a son. Is the first kid over here. I mean,
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: obviously sleep goes down. I'm a big sleeper over here.
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: I hope you're sleeping, bro. I am sleeping enough trying
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: to get a nap in during the day at night though,
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: but that's the only negative. And yeah, always the positive,
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: definitely always the negative. So really cool stuff. He's doing great,
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: he's healthy, and yeah, excited for him to keep growing
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: over here. So very very blessed. I appreciate get everyone
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: in here saying congratulations, appreciate you real excited for you
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: to meet him one of these days.
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: And yeah, excited.
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you're moving into your new spot you have when
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: we were out there, Maddy and I last year.
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: Actually I just got the notification.
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: It was like a week ago to the day that
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: we were out there watching some fights. But yeah, you
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: showed us really really sick spot. You had to do
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: a lot of work on it, though, So I'm excited
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: to when we do get out there to see what's up.
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: Thank you, everybody, Appreciate all the congrats, Thank you, thank you. Yeah,
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: actually I wanted to ask you before you get into
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: this slate about the tanking stuff. I mean, we haven't
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: seen teams tank this early, at least in my memory.
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: Like before the All Star Break actively you're Utah Jazz
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: actively tanking like it was I believe the Thursday right
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: before the All Star Break, like it was a close
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: game against Portland and they had pretty the ace Bailey
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: and then they had bums pretty much to close out
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: the game in a somewhat competitive game. I mean, how
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: I guess my question is, what's the right answer. Do
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: you have a solution for what the NBA can do
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: to prevent that? Because I mean that's pretty bad in
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: my opinion for just the game itself.
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: So any thoughts on that.
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm not going to sit here and pretend like
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: I'm smarter than anybody that's making the decisions right now.
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: No one rout, no one's making any decision to prevent
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: I mean, one hundred k or five hundred k fine
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: is pocket change for number one pick. So they're not,
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: in my opinion, doing nothing right now.
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: Yeah, for sure. I Mean I would say I've heard
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: some really dumb ideas, and I think the stupidest one is,
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: like I think it was stan Van Gundhi and some
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: of these other media guys saying that there should just
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: be no draft and it's just an open free agency,
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: which would just be awful for the league because everybody
• 4:38
  Speaker 4: that is coming into the league obviously wants to go
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: to LA, They want to go to New York, they
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: want to go to Miami. Stuff like that is the
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: dumbest idea I think. The one like an interesting idea
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: that I've heard which I think would be more fun,
• 4:52
  Speaker 4: as like a viewer of the NBA was a basically
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: like a tournament to dictate the lottery, or not the
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: lottery odds, but the the standings towards the end of
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: the season. I don't know if, like I think somebody said,
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: like soccer does something similar towards the end of the
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: year where you get points at like against bad team.
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: I don't know exactly how it works, but I get
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: tournament towards the end of the year, we're all like
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: the bottom twelve teams are in, and then you know,
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: if you get first place in the tournament, you get
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: the number one overall pick something along those lines. I
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: don't know exactly how that would work, but I feel
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: like that'd be the most exciting from the NBA viewership standpoint.
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: Other than that, I feel like just keeping what you
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: have is probably the best idea.
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: I mean, man, it's like the teams just tanking, like
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: you can't tank it before the All Star break. I mean,
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: that's next level bad in my opinion that it's clearly
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: not going to get any better as a season goes.
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: Obviously we're talking DFS teams that do tank. The pacers
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: are on this late like, well, we'll talk about that maybe,
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: Like in certain spots, you just stay away from that
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: stuff because it's more uncertainty. However, when you look at
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: it today and you start by granted, they our favorites today,
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: but when you start by ownership, you do see a
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: couple pacers up top. So not too many que tags,
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: which is what you expect first day back from the
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: ULSO break. But we do have a couple any other
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: broad slate O review before we go game by game?
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: Uh no, not really think that kind of covers it all.
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: All right, it's doing again. Appreciate everyone hanging out in chat.
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: I hope everyone's doing well. Two more shows we also
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: have on tap today, PGA Showdown Round two. I'm not
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: sure this will exactly stay at a PM Eastern Maybe
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: it will, but obviously with the delay, I doubt that
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: these guys finish up today, but be on the lookoup
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: for that. Just subscribe to the YouTube channel. You'll get
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: notified when we go live every time. And if you're
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: in the discord. If you're not, you're not a member.
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: Definitely recommend heading over to ship in Nation. We have
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: a daily pass that doesn't include discord. It does include
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: SABERSIM and everything else for nine dollars, but ten more
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: dollars gets you five days for nineteen bucks. NASCAR's back.
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: Shout out to the game. Eric does great work. I
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: was in the NASCAR streets. It might actually continue on Sundays.
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: It's pretty fun, big prizes as well. MMA Saturdays, NASCAR Sundays,
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: NHL we'll be back at the Olympics of course, NBA
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: going on mlbeat right around the corners, we'd love to
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: have you at the Nation. Best discord around Sabersimp is
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: our partner. Multiple different options can get as low as
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: nine dollars. We would love to have you ten the
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: bottom two team to the G League.
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: We're gonna get We're gonna be getting two new teams
• 7:22
  Speaker 4: pretty soon. It sounds like, yeah, that's what it sounds like.
• 7:25
  Speaker 4: What are your thoughts on that? And then we'll get
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: into it. Yeah, I think that is what I was
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: talking about. But I think people were saying if you
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: do that towards the end of the season, like not
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: the full season, so just those teams that are in
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: like the bottom ten or bottom twelve would get like
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: the points system. I think it's a little too European
• 7:39
  Speaker 4: for the NBA, but that makes sense. All right, We'll
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: get right into it.
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: The first game of the slates going from left to
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: right on Sabers and we got the Houston Rockets and
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: the Charlotte Hornets four and a half point favorites are
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: the Rockets two seventeen and a half total in this one.
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: Injuries on the Rocket side, absolutely nothing injuries on the
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: Charlotte's side. No dabout, no bridges, no Kobe White, diabase
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: and bridges were thinking they were in the UFC trying
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: to throw down. That was very interesting before right before
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: the All Star break. But I mean, the opposite of
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: two tanking teams. Love to see Charlotte coming on. I'm
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: gonna keep saying it, but Kankan Nipple is the freaking man.
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: We love him on my team any day of the week.
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: And I like you Sean Sullivan, but no chance you
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: are taking La melow Ball over Kankan Nipple to start
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: your team. I remember that comment. But yeah, a little
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: biased Wisconsin night over here. Two good teams playing are
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: two good teams that have been winning. That doesn't always
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: translate to dfs though, So what are your thoughts on
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: this one?
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that kind of sums it up. I
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: definitely think that this game will be a little bit
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: more competitive than it was the last time these teams
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: faced off. I think Houston only lost by ten, but
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: it was a little like kind of one of those
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: back door cover type situations where they had all the
• 8:51
  Speaker 4: bums in at the end. Yeah, I expect a definitely
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: closer game. But I think the biggest news in this
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: game are from these teams, all the drama circulating both
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: these seems he saw the Kevin Durant Berner Twitter account stuff.
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: No, I didn't.
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: I've been I've been pretty busy. I've meant staying up
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: to day and on too much of this stuff.
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: I will admit that's true. Yeah, you have had a
• 9:13
  Speaker 4: big week, But yeah, he was. I don't know if
• 9:16
  Speaker 4: it was true or not, but there's just like a
• 9:17
  Speaker 4: lot of talk about like KD and these burner accounts
• 9:21
  Speaker 4: that he's had on Twitter, just talking about his teammates.
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: I know back in the day.
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he got caught for he got caught really bad
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: on one of his burners. I didn't know he's still
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: I thought after like he got absolutely out in that
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: one time. It was so obvious that he might put
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: those away.
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: But man, that's something.
• 9:36
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know, it's probably not true, but it's
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: still funny. And then obviously like the LaMelo Ball got
• 9:41
  Speaker 4: into a car accident yesterday, but it wasn't bad enough
• 9:44
  Speaker 4: to where he got injured or anything. But pretty definitely
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: think there'll be some legal action taking place against him
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: because he just basically ran into a dude in the
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: other lane straight on.
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: I saw a video of him like last year, just
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: like skirting off of Like I mean.
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: There's what Yeah, they posted that right underneath like it
• 10:03
  Speaker 4: was just bound to happen. But gotta be smarterest what
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: I mean, He's he's had a lot of money for
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: a long time, as all these crazy cars. I don't
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: think he's too mad about losing his custom hummer, but
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: uh yeah, anyways, you kind of summed it up. This
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: is A. I think it's gonna be a slower paced game,
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: definitely lower scoring. There were some decent Fantasy scores the
• 10:24
  Speaker 4: last time these teams faced off, But and I do
• 10:27
  Speaker 4: think that it's gonna be more competitive. So I think
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: you could make the case for some of these guys. Uh,
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: it's a different matchup this time. For the two guys
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: that we were playing the last time the Rockets and
• 10:36
  Speaker 4: the Hornets faced off, which was Sengoon and KD, it's
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: been a lot of Miles Bridges on Kevin Durant. Now
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: you're gonna be swapping him out for probably Grant Williams
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: and Brandon Millier. Was a little bit more Brandon Miller
• 10:48
  Speaker 4: the last time these teams met, but I think Grant
• 10:50
  Speaker 4: Williams kind of sets up a matches up a little
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: bit better there. And then for Sengoon, Diabate really limited
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: him last game, only held held him to twenty seven
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: DK points. Now you got Cock Brenner and like a
• 11:01
  Speaker 4: mixture PJ. Hall and maybe even some Grant wins against him.
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: I think that he could bounce back here. I think
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: those are the two guys I'm really focusing in on.
• 11:08
  Speaker 4: On the Rocket side. Would be a Max one of
• 11:11
  Speaker 4: those two don't only have a lot of interest in
• 11:14
  Speaker 4: Aman Thompson, but I think Jabbari and Tari are fine
• 11:18
  Speaker 4: at their price tags. Jabari has been playing sneakily pretty
• 11:21
  Speaker 4: well like this entire month. He has three straight double
• 11:24
  Speaker 4: doubles shooting forty two percent from deep in the month
• 11:28
  Speaker 4: of February, so a little bit of upside for him
• 11:30
  Speaker 4: at six point six K. And then Tari, I think
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: that the All Star break really helps him out of a
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: ton because he was been in and out of the lineup,
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: but did play thirty and thirty to thirty four minutes
• 11:40
  Speaker 4: in each of his last three games. I think he's
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: very much in play here at six point three K.
• 11:45
  Speaker 4: Only issue with these guys they only have single eligibility,
• 11:48
  Speaker 4: so only shooting guard only power forward for Tari and Jabari,
• 11:52
  Speaker 4: I think there are kind of secondary options. Not really
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: super excited about anything on Houston in particular on the
• 11:57
  Speaker 4: hornet side, definitely a lot more usage to go around
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: with Miles Bridges out, and then definitely some more rebounding
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: to go around with Diabat out a'm and Thompson on
• 12:06
  Speaker 4: LaMelo is kind of a spot I'd prefer to get
• 12:09
  Speaker 4: away from He's held LaMelo to just fifteen point eight
• 12:11
  Speaker 4: points for seventy five positions in their head to head
• 12:14
  Speaker 4: matchups over the last two seasons, so pretty pretty bad
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: numbers for LaMelo. But where he can make up some
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: of that is with shot volume. He has been taking
• 12:23
  Speaker 4: a ton of threes lately, and Houston can be a
• 12:25
  Speaker 4: little bit more vulnerable against pick and roll heavy guards,
• 12:28
  Speaker 4: which LaMelo definitely is. I think it remains to be
• 12:31
  Speaker 4: seen what the minutes are going to look like for
• 12:32
  Speaker 4: LaMelo in the second half of the season, because obviously
• 12:34
  Speaker 4: the Hornets are looking to make a push in the
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: East for playoff positioning, so I think it'd be smart
• 12:39
  Speaker 4: to get him some more minutes more than thirty two
• 12:41
  Speaker 4: that he has been seeing. But if the forum is
• 12:44
  Speaker 4: working they're just kind of keeping him limited, then maybe
• 12:47
  Speaker 4: they keep him at thirty two. But I think that
• 12:48
  Speaker 4: there will be some games where we get a spike
• 12:50
  Speaker 4: in minutes if he's playing well. I'm not sure if
• 12:52
  Speaker 4: this is going to be that game after LaMelo, I
• 12:55
  Speaker 4: think it's probably Brandon Miller I would prefer over LaMelo
• 12:58
  Speaker 4: in a nutshell. I think that he's just a better
• 13:01
  Speaker 4: permitted producer with those two guys off the court, Bridges
• 13:04
  Speaker 4: and Diabat has a pretty meaningful increase to his usage, rebounding,
• 13:08
  Speaker 4: and assist rates with those guys off the court. If
• 13:10
  Speaker 4: you look at the game log for him last game
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: against Houston looks really bad, but I was looking at
• 13:14
  Speaker 4: the rotation stuff. He picked up three fouls in the
• 13:18
  Speaker 4: first quarter and then picked up it didn't play in
• 13:21
  Speaker 4: the entire second quarter, and then picked up a fourth
• 13:23
  Speaker 4: foul early in the third quarter, and then finished the
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: last thirteen minutes of the game to get into twenty
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: one minutes. So it is a really probably the worst
• 13:30
  Speaker 4: runout you could possibly have for somebody like him. Would
• 13:33
  Speaker 4: not expect that to happen again here. So I'm pretty
• 13:35
  Speaker 4: interested in Brandon Miller here at AK and then your
• 13:38
  Speaker 4: guy Conn at seven point one K is in play.
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: Don't like the matchup for him. He sees a really
• 13:43
  Speaker 4: meaningful bump to his assist numbers with Bridges in Dabati
• 13:47
  Speaker 4: off the court the season up ten points, and then
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: the per minute numbers are not that great though under
• 13:53
  Speaker 4: one fantasy porint per minute, which is not very good
• 13:55
  Speaker 4: for somebody at seven point one K, and it's not
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: a good matchup for three point shooters. He can do
• 14:00
  Speaker 4: a little bit of everything, though does have games where
• 14:02
  Speaker 4: you can film the stat sheet. I just don't think
• 14:04
  Speaker 4: that this is the spot for Con, so I think
• 14:06
  Speaker 4: I would have Miller as my number one option than LaMelo,
• 14:09
  Speaker 4: and then Con, but a pretty big gap between Con
• 14:12
  Speaker 4: and those other two guys. And then lastly, Grant Williams
• 14:16
  Speaker 4: at four K looks like a really solid value option.
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: Played thirty two minutes in his first start for the
• 14:20
  Speaker 4: Hornets for Miles Bridges only twenty five point five DK points,
• 14:23
  Speaker 4: but that actually looks pretty good and considered that he
• 14:26
  Speaker 4: shot just one for nine from the field, so anything
• 14:29
  Speaker 4: more probably gets some above thirty DK points. And then
• 14:33
  Speaker 4: don't think you need to go to coch Brander or PJ.
• 14:35
  Speaker 5: Hall.
• 14:35
  Speaker 4: I think that the PJ Hall game log is kind
• 14:39
  Speaker 4: of chasy. I just don't really think that he's that
• 14:41
  Speaker 4: great of a player. Could kind of get exposed in
• 14:43
  Speaker 4: this matchup.
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: Center is also pretty lowded on this laid so I
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: think that'd be a mistake as well. I really like
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: your Brandon Miller shout. I think sabers him just looking
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: at the minutes. I feel like they got pretty much
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: all of these guys under projected in terms of minutes.
• 14:57
  Speaker 4: Do you agree.
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: Get Grant Williams twenty nine, Lamellow thirty two, Brandon Miller
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: thirty two, con like by like three maybe four minutes,
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: it seems, which, Yeah, I mean that's pretty significant. Yeah,
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: I love your Brandon Miller show.
• 15:12
  Speaker 4: Yeah. I was just looking at like how they're spreading
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: them out. I think if they're a little high in
• 15:15
  Speaker 4: like the Trey Trey Man's and salons, that they feel
• 15:18
  Speaker 4: like that you should probably go to Miller and Con
• 15:21
  Speaker 4: and probably even more to Grant Williams. So I agree
• 15:23
  Speaker 4: with you there, that's a good, good note.
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Houston Side feels pretty difficult to get to. But yeah, Charlotte,
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: I don't mind getting like one of LaMelo or one
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: of Brandon Miller with Grant.
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: Williams would be fine.
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: There's not really again, not much Q tag stuff on
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: this slate, and four of the seven games do lock
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: right away at seven eastern, so it's definitely not a
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: slate in my opinion that you should be like forcing
• 15:45
  Speaker 3: a backload or anything. I mean, if you like KD,
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: play KD, if you like Miller, con whatever, you can
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: play them, but yeah, Brandon Miller definitely my favorite when
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: talking it through, we'll keep it rolling. Next game on
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: the slate, the Atlanta Hawks and the Philadelphia seventy six ers.
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: Very close spread in this one, we are looking at
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: one and a half point favorites for Philly. Big boy
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: total two forty and a half, the biggest on the slate.
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: Injury news on the Atlanta side, no injuries to talk about.
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: Oh Kaming is not going to be playing, but Philly
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: no Joel Mbad. When you start by ownership, yeah, this
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: game is most definitely getting ownership. And again kind of
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: what I was saying, there's no worry to backload on
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: this late. If you like anyone, you plug them in
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: and you play them. In my opinion, so yeah, it
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: looks to be the game of the night. I mean
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: the pacer stuff looks a little interesting too, But yeah,
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: I'm excited for this one.
• 16:33
  Speaker 4: What do you see? Yeah? I agree. I think that
• 16:36
  Speaker 4: if there was a spot that you wanted to get
• 16:38
  Speaker 4: over the field on in terms of like a game SEC,
• 16:40
  Speaker 4: this is clearly the number one option, the highest over
• 16:43
  Speaker 4: under on the slate. I believe the closest spread to
• 16:45
  Speaker 4: one and a half points, so you could run into
• 16:47
  Speaker 4: a situation and we did see it earlier this year
• 16:50
  Speaker 4: where these teams got went into double overtime, So that's
• 16:53
  Speaker 4: not obviously it's hard to account for that, but it's
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: definitely within the range of outcomes for these teams that
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: feel like they match up pretty well here, So definitely
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: lots of like here, I almost feel like it's a
• 17:04
  Speaker 4: min one to three of this game, Like I really
• 17:07
  Speaker 4: think you got to get into this one. I feel
• 17:09
  Speaker 4: like we're going to get a couple scores in this
• 17:12
  Speaker 4: one that are probably optimal. So definitely gonna get over
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: the field. But defensively, Philly ranks sixteenth on the season
• 17:20
  Speaker 4: pre All Star Break, but over the last four games
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: have been really bad, third worst in defense, second worst
• 17:26
  Speaker 4: in offense. Are really struggling, and kind of the same
• 17:29
  Speaker 4: for the Hawks. Hawks are seventeenth in defense on the season,
• 17:31
  Speaker 4: but bottom five in defense over the last four games,
• 17:35
  Speaker 4: So definitely a good spot to attack. So I agree
• 17:37
  Speaker 4: with the game total here. Both teams kind of lean
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: more of being a rim funnel. Atlanta's bottom three, Philly's
• 17:43
  Speaker 4: bottom five. There Sixers are the second worst rebounding team
• 17:46
  Speaker 4: in the NBA. And the Atlanta is bottom six and
• 17:48
  Speaker 4: transition defense, and then the Sixers are six worth six
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: worst in pick and roll defense. Storry with the Atlanta side.
• 17:55
  Speaker 4: I really like the spot for Jalen Johnson here. He
• 17:59
  Speaker 4: saw a lot of Dominic Barlow in the first matchup,
• 18:01
  Speaker 4: and I was watching some of the head to head
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: matchups some clips there. He was just blowing by him
• 18:07
  Speaker 4: every single time. Jalen's played really well this season. Obviously,
• 18:10
  Speaker 4: they're kind of looking at him as the centerpiece of
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: the of the Hawks moving forward. And in fourteen games
• 18:16
  Speaker 4: since the Trey Young trade, he's averaging fifty three point
• 18:18
  Speaker 4: three DraftKings points per game. He's topped sixty DK points
• 18:21
  Speaker 4: six times in those four games, so a really good
• 18:23
  Speaker 4: hit rate for a guy that's probably a ten point
• 18:25
  Speaker 4: four K. I think that he's got a ton of
• 18:27
  Speaker 4: upside here, potentially highest score on the sleigh between him
• 18:31
  Speaker 4: and Wemby. I feel like those are the two clear options.
• 18:33
  Speaker 4: But I really like Jalen here a potential core play
• 18:35
  Speaker 4: for me. Outside of that, it's a little bit thinner.
• 18:39
  Speaker 4: I think you can make the case for the Alexander Walker,
• 18:42
  Speaker 4: Dyson Daniel and CJ. McCollum grouping. Of those three guys,
• 18:46
  Speaker 4: I prefer CJ and Dyson over NAW and I think
• 18:49
  Speaker 4: CJ is probably the one I prefer the most of
• 18:52
  Speaker 4: just Price suggested, I feel like he's got the best
• 18:54
  Speaker 4: punker dollar upside there. It's a really good match up
• 18:56
  Speaker 4: for him against a team that struggles against pick and rolls.
• 18:59
  Speaker 4: I think that's a kind of a plus for his matchup.
• 19:02
  Speaker 4: And then for Dyson, I kind of like these guys
• 19:05
  Speaker 4: both at ownership, but for Dyson, the minutes have been
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: really bad and I think people are looking at that
• 19:09
  Speaker 4: in the game logs. His ownership is really really low.
• 19:12
  Speaker 4: But this is the spot where he could definitely pop
• 19:14
  Speaker 4: off for more score than usual. Because Philly has such
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: a bad rim defense, Dyson's taken no three pointers. He's
• 19:19
  Speaker 4: looking to get to the basket. I think that there's
• 19:21
  Speaker 4: gonna be more scoring opportunity for Dyson here tonight. And
• 19:25
  Speaker 4: I think you should definitely keep Nika Alexander Walker in
• 19:28
  Speaker 4: the playerpool because he has popped off for fifty plus
• 19:30
  Speaker 4: DK points a couple of times since the Trey Young trade,
• 19:33
  Speaker 4: so does have good upside. But I'm in kind of
• 19:37
  Speaker 4: in the CG mccollam Dyson Daniels grouping over Nika Alexander Walker.
• 19:41
  Speaker 4: I would be a max two of that group for sure,
• 19:44
  Speaker 4: and then I would probably say if I have Jalen Johnson,
• 19:46
  Speaker 4: I don't want more than one of those three guys.
• 19:49
  Speaker 4: I feel like that would cover the rules that I
• 19:50
  Speaker 4: want to make for the Hawks.
• 19:52
  Speaker 3: And I see him on the DVP rank never Yeah,
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: all right, I just sometimes like to say his name
• 20:01
  Speaker 3: now that I know how to pronounce it.
• 20:03
  Speaker 4: After a couple of years. Yeah, definitely not interested in
• 20:07
  Speaker 4: reesa che a congou kind of. I don't know he's
• 20:12
  Speaker 4: gonna get lost in the shuffle. There's a lot of
• 20:14
  Speaker 4: pretty good center options tonight. I just don't really see
• 20:17
  Speaker 4: it for him. I think that he's gonna lose, Like
• 20:19
  Speaker 4: his role is not that great when you have a
• 20:21
  Speaker 4: fully healthy team. CJ takes away from him. Jalen definitely
• 20:24
  Speaker 4: takes away from him. He does benefit from NOEM beats
• 20:28
  Speaker 4: tonight because the there'll be basically no foul risk on
• 20:31
  Speaker 4: whoever he's defending, So I think that is good for him.
• 20:34
  Speaker 4: But I just prefer some of these other center options tonight.
• 20:36
  Speaker 4: You're looking at like dayre On Sharp and Paul Reid
• 20:39
  Speaker 4: that are projecting better than him right now. So I
• 20:40
  Speaker 4: just don't think it's a little too cute to go
• 20:42
  Speaker 4: to a congou Personally. On the Philly side, max is
• 20:48
  Speaker 4: going to get a ton of ownership, and I think rightfully. So,
• 20:51
  Speaker 4: I mean, obviously no EMBIID is great for him. Does
• 20:54
  Speaker 4: he usage rate increase? He's been okay without embiad the season,
• 20:58
  Speaker 4: averaging forty seven DK points for game just one point
• 21:00
  Speaker 4: three Fantasy points per minute, so I think that he
• 21:04
  Speaker 4: should be priced a little bit cheaper with that considered.
• 21:08
  Speaker 4: It's also not a great matchup. It was a mixture
• 21:10
  Speaker 4: of Dyson Daniels and Nik Alexander Walker on tarrest Maxi.
• 21:14
  Speaker 4: In the matchup earlier this season, Dyson has held Maxi
• 21:17
  Speaker 4: to thirteen point two points for seventy five possessions, but
• 21:20
  Speaker 4: he did go off for forty four to seven to
• 21:22
  Speaker 4: nine in the double overtime game for sixty six point
• 21:25
  Speaker 4: three DK points, but took him fifty two minutes hit
• 21:28
  Speaker 4: that mark. So not really that great fantasy point per
• 21:31
  Speaker 4: minuted numbers for Maxi in this matchup. I feel like
• 21:35
  Speaker 4: he's more of an underweight stance here, Like you can
• 21:37
  Speaker 4: obviously make the case for him being one of the
• 21:39
  Speaker 4: better spend up options with no embiid, no Paul George,
• 21:42
  Speaker 4: but I don't know there's a lot working against him tonight.
• 21:47
  Speaker 4: I think we'll get to some of the other point
• 21:50
  Speaker 4: guards later. Like I do prefer Kid over him, maybe
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: Brunson for a little bit cheaper, but I think Maxi's
• 21:57
  Speaker 4: totally fine. It definitely makes a lot of sense if
• 21:59
  Speaker 4: you're playing heavily into this game. I'll probably be more
• 22:03
  Speaker 4: focused on like the VJ, Edgecomb, Kelly Ubray, Quentin Grimes grouping,
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: because I think that they're just a little bit safer
• 22:09
  Speaker 4: at their at their salaries. I do like the spot
• 22:13
  Speaker 4: for a VJ. Here he's gonna see a lot of
• 22:14
  Speaker 4: Niak Alexander Walker, and he's been really good against him,
• 22:17
  Speaker 4: averaging twenty point eight points per seventy five went off
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: for thirty nine point five DK points the last time
• 22:23
  Speaker 4: these teams met. He's kind of like Con in the
• 22:26
  Speaker 4: sense that he's not a great per minuted producer, just
• 22:27
  Speaker 4: point nine Fantasy points for minute without embat and Paul
• 22:30
  Speaker 4: George this season, but he does have a really really
• 22:34
  Speaker 4: high minutes floor and ceiling, so I could see him
• 22:36
  Speaker 4: get into like thirty eight forty, and it's kind of
• 22:39
  Speaker 4: easy to make the case for him being three K
• 22:41
  Speaker 4: cheaper than Tyre's MAXI same thing for Ubre. Just a
• 22:44
  Speaker 4: guy that could play a ton not a great permitted producer,
• 22:47
  Speaker 4: but can get hot from deep and is a pretty
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: solid rebounder. So maybe it's one of those games where
• 22:51
  Speaker 4: he reforts with a double double and then Quentin Grimes
• 22:54
  Speaker 4: at four point two K. It's kind of a standout
• 22:56
  Speaker 4: value play on this slag where we don't have a
• 22:57
  Speaker 4: ton of really cheap value, so him a good bit
• 23:01
  Speaker 4: should have a pretty solid role off the bench. With
• 23:03
  Speaker 4: Jerem McCain now in OKC and then Nopaul George and
• 23:06
  Speaker 4: then Bona and Drummond are going to split most of
• 23:08
  Speaker 4: the centiments, and I think if you're playing one, it's
• 23:09
  Speaker 4: probably Drummond. He's just the better fantasy option and he's
• 23:13
  Speaker 4: not so much more expensive that it's impossible to get
• 23:17
  Speaker 4: to him. But I definitely have interested in both Bona
• 23:20
  Speaker 4: and Drummond. Tonight, Bona's only three point three K, so
• 23:23
  Speaker 4: that's kind of kind of a good spot for him.
• 23:25
  Speaker 4: But I think a guy in the next game is
• 23:27
  Speaker 4: going to project a little bit better Barlow.
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: I'm seeing him on the DVP ranking. He don't want
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: to give it all away, But Barlow Watford any of
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: these options for value?
• 23:40
  Speaker 4: No, I think Barlow's okay, four K is a decent
• 23:44
  Speaker 4: price for him, should play a good bit. Just not
• 23:47
  Speaker 4: somebody that really ever pops off the page for me.
• 23:50
  Speaker 4: I'm just I feel like people are still chasing that
• 23:52
  Speaker 4: fifty seven point game against the Clippers earlier this month.
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: Quentin Grimes or Grant Williams if having to choose different
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: positions but salaries right there, if you were to decide.
• 24:04
  Speaker 4: In the vacuum, I would probably say Grant. I just
• 24:07
  Speaker 4: think that the role is a little bit better for him.
• 24:11
  Speaker 4: Grimes has to compete with MAXI vj Ubre, like a
• 24:14
  Speaker 4: pretty pretty big gap there for me.
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: You said min one in this game.
• 24:21
  Speaker 3: I don't know if you said Max three, but you're
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: definitely fine getting three. Just when sorting by point per dollar,
• 24:27
  Speaker 3: like the top on three seven guys one, two, three, four, five, six,
• 24:32
  Speaker 3: seven are all show in Philly, Like you're like if
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: you if you're playing just Jalen Johnson, like you want
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: a piece of Philly, Like when you're saying mid one
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: is it almost mid one Philly and then you're fine
• 24:42
  Speaker 3: getting like an Atlanta piece or something like that, because
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: I mean they just look super strong to.
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: Do it, like get zero of them and just play
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: one Hawk piece.
• 24:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that that makes sense. It almost I
• 24:53
  Speaker 4: feel like if you're like, the optimizer is probably gonna
• 24:55
  Speaker 4: be looking at jam like three Philly guys tonight. It
• 24:57
  Speaker 4: seems like I haven't run any dry I just like
• 25:01
  Speaker 4: projections in the optimiser just yet.
• 25:03
  Speaker 3: Definitely two three is is showing a decent bit for sure.
• 25:06
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it feels like if you're gonna play three, you
• 25:08
  Speaker 4: should probably play one or two Atlanta guys, like say
• 25:11
  Speaker 4: if three Philly like one of those top four guys
• 25:15
  Speaker 4: between Jalen, naw c J and Dyson, and then you
• 25:19
  Speaker 4: can throw Congo in there too. I guess, Yeah, I.
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: Don't hate it Congo. I mean if the game is,
• 25:25
  Speaker 3: if the game does go over two forty and a
• 25:27
  Speaker 3: half and to say somewhat competitive, it's a way to
• 25:29
  Speaker 3: get different in Chalkier builds, like you're kind of flipping.
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: A lot of people will be spending down at center
• 25:34
  Speaker 3: and he's shown upside. So just that way alone. Uh,
• 25:37
  Speaker 3: you said you prefer Cad maybe Brunston. I take it,
• 25:40
  Speaker 3: Jalen Johnson and Wemby all over Maxi two as spens
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: at ownership.
• 25:46
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it's a little bit closer between Brunson
• 25:49
  Speaker 4: and Tyrese. But I do like kid, Jalen and Wemby
• 25:53
  Speaker 4: over Maxie tonight, all.
• 25:54
  Speaker 3: Right, And yeah, those are just looking at the slate,
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: those are like there's only three players priced above ten k,
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: be ten to five, Johnson ten four, k, ten to three,
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: and then max He's the next at ten to six.
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: And I do think MAXI will be the highest end
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: of all of them as a spend on this late
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: So yeah, interesting, bj looks really strong. Definitely my favorite
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: Philly piece in this game. And Jalen Johnson, I mean,
• 26:16
  Speaker 3: he continues to print it, Mack. I know he won
• 26:19
  Speaker 3: the Millie. I can't remember. I think Jalen Johnson was
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: on there. He's like eleven percent on that Wednesday or
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: something like. He's not going to be quite quite that
• 26:26
  Speaker 3: low on but man, he's he's so good in a
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: great game environment. So definitely the probably the best game
• 26:32
  Speaker 3: to get to. And we're going to talk about the
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: two best in my opinion in terms of dfs going
• 26:36
  Speaker 3: to the Pacers and the Wizards, but really curious hear
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: your take. Obviously, with tanking implications, Pacers two and a
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: half point favorite. It's not sure how many times will
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: be favorites to close the year two thirty two and
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: a half total in this one. On the Indie side,
• 26:50
  Speaker 3: no Siakam Zubac still will not be playing from the trade,
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: and then they got TJ. McConnell, Micah Potter, Aaron E.
• 26:58
  Speaker 3: Smith all questionable. On the Washington side, no Sar and
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: that is it for them. Obviously we will get these
• 27:05
  Speaker 3: Q tags for the Pacers stuff though, so obviously important
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: Q tags. Three of them all guys that are going
• 27:11
  Speaker 3: to play meaningful minutes and have a role. So thankfully
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: we don't have to do guesswork. But yeah, I don't
• 27:16
  Speaker 3: know if you want to start Wizard side because it's
• 27:18
  Speaker 3: probably easier to break down right now. But yeah, it
• 27:20
  Speaker 3: looks like the two best games in terms of DFAs
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: back to back.
• 27:24
  Speaker 4: Yeah, for sure. I just think it's funny that the
• 27:27
  Speaker 4: Pacers just kind of said fuck you to the NBA
• 27:32
  Speaker 4: and just said we're going to continue to tank. I
• 27:34
  Speaker 4: don't know what the situation is with Pascal Siakam, it
• 27:38
  Speaker 4: says personal and I feel like a lot of times
• 27:40
  Speaker 4: when there's a personal issue, it's like usually something serious.
• 27:43
  Speaker 4: So I feel like if he was if he didn't
• 27:45
  Speaker 4: have something personally going on, he's probably playing. But Zubac
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: they traded for him, never really had any intentions of
• 27:51
  Speaker 4: playing him. I don't think. Yeah, so it's just kind
• 27:55
  Speaker 4: of funny. But Nemro will be in. Then you got
• 27:57
  Speaker 4: the Q tags on Nie Smith, Potter and Teach. I
• 28:00
  Speaker 4: think whenever we get the news on Quintin Jackson would
• 28:05
  Speaker 4: be an indicative of what they're gonna do with McConnell.
• 28:08
  Speaker 4: Quintin Jackson is questionable at the G League two way
• 28:10
  Speaker 4: contract issue, not issue, just that's what his listing is.
• 28:14
  Speaker 4: And then if you got upgraded, then I would imagine
• 28:16
  Speaker 4: that means TJ probably gonna sit. But I'll start with
• 28:20
  Speaker 4: the Wizard side. Do you think that it's a little
• 28:23
  Speaker 4: bit easier to break down? I think actually both sides
• 28:26
  Speaker 4: are a little bit more complicated, just because I don't
• 28:29
  Speaker 4: think that we have any sort of confidence in what
• 28:31
  Speaker 4: these rotations are going to look like. There's a good
• 28:33
  Speaker 4: chance that both teams run out ten to twelve man rotations.
• 28:37
  Speaker 4: I mean, they have enough bodies to do that for sure.
• 28:40
  Speaker 4: So it's gonna be a definitely a headache for both
• 28:42
  Speaker 4: these teams. But the so the tanking implications this one
• 28:47
  Speaker 4: are obviously huge. Indy is that fifteen wins. Washington is
• 28:50
  Speaker 4: at fourteen wins. I mean, this would be a really
• 28:53
  Speaker 4: big game for either team to lose. I think it's
• 28:57
  Speaker 4: a little bit like it's bigger for Indiana because if
• 29:00
  Speaker 4: they drop outside of the top four, then their pick
• 29:03
  Speaker 4: goes to the Clippers. I forgot what the what the
• 29:06
  Speaker 4: trader was like top four protected and then ten through thirty,
• 29:09
  Speaker 4: So if it falls in that like five to nine range,
• 29:13
  Speaker 4: then they lose their pick. And still there's a lot
• 29:15
  Speaker 4: of really really good players in the draft in that
• 29:19
  Speaker 4: after the fourth pick. So I definitely think that they
• 29:22
  Speaker 4: are going to try really really hard to lose this game.
• 29:24
  Speaker 4: Washington has a little bit more wiggle room, but they
• 29:28
  Speaker 4: obviously would want to lose to trying to catch the
• 29:30
  Speaker 4: Kings for the worst record. Yeah go click said race
• 29:35
  Speaker 4: to the bottom for sure.
• 29:37
  Speaker 3: So annoying that both these teams trying to lose, like
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: and but I mean when you look at your salaries.
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: It doesn't mean you can ignore it.
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: The highest priced guy in this game seven point three K,
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: seven K, and then everyone else is below six. So
• 29:50
  Speaker 3: I mean it feels like someone's got to get there.
• 29:52
  Speaker 4: With their salary. Yeah, I think it's gonna be the
• 29:55
  Speaker 4: cheap guys, and I feel like the field is onto
• 29:57
  Speaker 4: that as well, like you're just it feels like you're
• 30:00
  Speaker 4: a little bit well. Nemart is getting a decent amount
• 30:02
  Speaker 4: of ownership the double digits, and then yes, that's I
• 30:07
  Speaker 4: don't know that's usually one I'd like to avoid. I
• 30:09
  Speaker 4: just don't think that he usually has the upside. Oh sorry,
• 30:12
  Speaker 4: let me start. I saw with the Wizards. I just
• 30:14
  Speaker 4: kind of backtracking a little bit. No, keisha On George,
• 30:17
  Speaker 4: for me, should have a really good role with all
• 30:20
  Speaker 4: these guys out, but I just don't see him playing
• 30:22
  Speaker 4: enough minutes. I think they'll be very very limited with
• 30:25
  Speaker 4: how much they play Keishon George, how much they play
• 30:27
  Speaker 4: Trey Johnson and Bob Carrington, even justin Champagne, all those
• 30:31
  Speaker 4: guys have been guys. I think that they view that
• 30:33
  Speaker 4: can contribute to winning, which is now what they want here.
• 30:36
  Speaker 4: So I think the second half could get really messy.
• 30:38
  Speaker 4: We even saw a game heading into the All Star
• 30:40
  Speaker 4: break where it was the bench players playing like starter minutes.
• 30:45
  Speaker 4: I think Will Riley had like a fourteen minute rotation
• 30:47
  Speaker 4: or something like that. So it's gonna get really gross.
• 30:49
  Speaker 4: I'm not really looking to get to any of those
• 30:52
  Speaker 4: guys priced five point two K and up. Cool Bally
• 30:55
  Speaker 4: is a little bit a little bit more confusing because
• 30:58
  Speaker 4: there was a couple of games where he's playing thready
• 31:00
  Speaker 4: four to thirty six minutes and then just played twenty
• 31:03
  Speaker 4: four minutes against Cleveland. But all three of those, their
• 31:05
  Speaker 4: last three games heading into the All Star breaks were
• 31:07
  Speaker 4: pretty big blowouts. So I don't really know how they
• 31:10
  Speaker 4: view cool of Bali right now, but I think that
• 31:12
  Speaker 4: if I'm choosing anybody from four point nine came up,
• 31:15
  Speaker 4: it's gonna be cool of Bali. But I think there's
• 31:17
  Speaker 4: three guys in particular I'm really focusing in on the Wizards.
• 31:20
  Speaker 4: One is Tristan Vuksovich. He's going to be one of
• 31:23
  Speaker 4: the chalkier players on the Slave, but for good reason,
• 31:25
  Speaker 4: he's shown really solid permanent upside. It's a really good
• 31:27
  Speaker 4: matchup for him. He's averaging twenty three point three DK
• 31:31
  Speaker 4: points per game, so as a starter, and the only
• 31:35
  Speaker 4: guy behind him is Anthony Gill really, who's not even
• 31:38
  Speaker 4: like an NBA talent, just kind of a guy that
• 31:40
  Speaker 4: they have in their roster. I don't know what. I
• 31:43
  Speaker 4: don't think Vouch is going to get like thirty minutes here,
• 31:45
  Speaker 4: but twenty two to twenty five is definitely enough for
• 31:48
  Speaker 4: him to pay off his price SAG in this matchup.
• 31:52
  Speaker 4: Will Riley is interesting because he's borderline gamescript proved. He's
• 31:55
  Speaker 4: gonna be playing normal minutes in the rotation whether game's
• 31:58
  Speaker 4: close or not. But if it does blow out, he's
• 32:00
  Speaker 4: probably in that blowout lineup as well. There's been a
• 32:03
  Speaker 4: couple of times this season where he's shown really good
• 32:06
  Speaker 4: ceiling and been very fancy relevant, but the floor is
• 32:09
  Speaker 4: really really low if he's not hitting shots, and he's
• 32:12
  Speaker 4: just not a very good player in my eyes. But
• 32:15
  Speaker 4: he's gone up against a really bad Pacers defense. I'm
• 32:18
  Speaker 4: pretty into him at four point four K with small
• 32:20
  Speaker 4: four power Ford eligibility. And then the last gal mentioned
• 32:23
  Speaker 4: is Jamior Watkins. I think that he's very intriguing at
• 32:26
  Speaker 4: low ownership if it does hold. He's been playing a
• 32:29
  Speaker 4: lot over the last four game, averaging thirty three point
• 32:32
  Speaker 4: three minutes per game, eleven point eight points per game,
• 32:34
  Speaker 4: one point eight assists, three point five rebounds. Looks like
• 32:38
  Speaker 4: he's a really solid rebounder as well for his position,
• 32:41
  Speaker 4: and he's a slashing wing, so not a guy that's
• 32:43
  Speaker 4: going to be dependent on the shot. He's gonna be
• 32:45
  Speaker 4: looking to get to the basket. Pacer is one of
• 32:47
  Speaker 4: the worst room defenses. I think that he could put
• 32:49
  Speaker 4: up a pretty solid score here. So those are three
• 32:52
  Speaker 4: guys I'm looking at on the Wizard side. On the
• 32:55
  Speaker 4: Pacers side, kind of already mentioned it, I don't really
• 32:57
  Speaker 4: have a ton of interest in Namhard at seven point
• 32:58
  Speaker 4: three k. There's really good point guard options above him,
• 33:02
  Speaker 4: and I don't really there might be some below him
• 33:05
  Speaker 4: as well. Obviously a great matchup, but he's going to
• 33:08
  Speaker 4: be capped at like thirty thirty two minutes, probably enough
• 33:12
  Speaker 4: for him to potentially pay off his price tag. But
• 33:14
  Speaker 4: I'm just gonna be looking elsewhere. This could be a
• 33:16
  Speaker 4: game where Indy would really want to lose, so I'm
• 33:21
  Speaker 4: just not going to go to any guy that's going
• 33:22
  Speaker 4: to be contributing to winning. So no nem Hard for me.
• 33:26
  Speaker 4: I think that that probably takes out Nei Smith as well,
• 33:28
  Speaker 4: and he's getting ownership. That's a pretty easy X out
• 33:31
  Speaker 4: for me. I'm really focusing on the front court guy,
• 33:35
  Speaker 4: so Jeris Walker, J Huff, and Michael Potter are the
• 33:37
  Speaker 4: three guys I have the most interest in. I think
• 33:40
  Speaker 4: Potter is probably the best from a points per dollar
• 33:43
  Speaker 4: standpoint in just three point nine K. I don't know
• 33:45
  Speaker 4: how real his question attag is. He's been listed for
• 33:48
  Speaker 4: a while, but it's been playing full minutes. I feel
• 33:50
  Speaker 4: like he's if he's playing tonight, he's going to be
• 33:53
  Speaker 4: playing twenty five minutes, which is really good for his
• 33:55
  Speaker 4: price SAG. I think Jeris Walker has a pretty appealing
• 33:58
  Speaker 4: upside at five point nine K. Huff is just a
• 34:01
  Speaker 4: power forward center that makes a lot work. So I'm
• 34:03
  Speaker 4: okay with all three of those guys, but definitely gonna
• 34:05
  Speaker 4: keep an eye on the questionable tags. All these g
• 34:08
  Speaker 4: leaguers are questionable a couple of probables as well, so
• 34:11
  Speaker 4: we'll see what happens with the who's in or out?
• 34:14
  Speaker 3: Are you find playing like four pieces in this game, Walker, Potter,
• 34:19
  Speaker 3: Huff and then Vuke or Riley or something.
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: Does that feel like?
• 34:25
  Speaker 4: I think three is probably okay for.
• 34:28
  Speaker 3: Obviously, if you're doing that, you're playing Wemby or Maxie
• 34:31
  Speaker 3: or like it's O Stars and Scrubs build that way.
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: So I guess that was more of the.
• 34:35
  Speaker 3: Question than avoiding the mid tier, which does have some
• 34:37
  Speaker 3: solid options.
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: But three Max mainly.
• 34:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Probably, Like I definitely would be fine with Vuksovic
• 34:45
  Speaker 4: and Potter if he's in and then like one of
• 34:48
  Speaker 4: Huff Walker, Riley or Waltkin.
• 34:51
  Speaker 3: Something like that, if TJ were to misses that do
• 34:54
  Speaker 3: anything with them hard or like none of these injuries
• 34:56
  Speaker 3: do because they don't want to win, and like he's
• 34:59
  Speaker 3: playing three too, regardless of any of these injuries.
• 35:02
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that's it. I don't think it does
• 35:04
  Speaker 4: enough really, all.
• 35:05
  Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, I mean I think this is on the slate,
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: just like sorting my ownership, like Neie Smiths, assuming he plays,
• 35:12
  Speaker 3: gonna get ownership and themar gonna get ownership, that could
• 35:14
  Speaker 3: be one of the spots that sounds like a big stand.
• 35:17
  Speaker 3: If those guys do fail, decent on the field will
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: be going down. So yeah, like you're calling plenty of
• 35:22
  Speaker 3: value in this game. We already talked about pretty much
• 35:25
  Speaker 3: all the value on the Slat Grant Williams Philly Guys
• 35:28
  Speaker 3: and then Pacers Washington like I'm not seen too much. Oh,
• 35:31
  Speaker 3: day Ron Sharp will talk about in the next game.
• 35:33
  Speaker 3: But really we talked about the most important DFS games
• 35:36
  Speaker 3: and where a lot of the value will come from.
• 35:39
  Speaker 3: We will take it to a very big spread. Tough
• 35:41
  Speaker 3: to get too much in DFS. In my opinion, fifteen
• 35:44
  Speaker 3: and a half point favorites are the calves over the
• 35:46
  Speaker 3: nets two twenty nine and a half total in this one.
• 35:48
  Speaker 3: No Nicholas Claxton for the nets. No Tomlin for the calves. Yeah,
• 35:54
  Speaker 3: no Claxton is why day Ron Sharp is popping quite
• 35:56
  Speaker 3: a bit. Keep talking about the center position though, and
• 36:00
  Speaker 3: like a kungu is a super controllan option. There's talked
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: about Drummond Bona hah Vuke now Sharp like a lot
• 36:06
  Speaker 3: of lineups will have two centers on this slates. Yeah,
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: outside of day Ron Sharp. And I'm curious to hear
• 36:12
  Speaker 3: your take on him if this game, if they're down
• 36:14
  Speaker 3: twenty five, is he going to be in? But it
• 36:16
  Speaker 3: feels pretty tough to get to like a Donovan Mitchell.
• 36:19
  Speaker 3: I mean, man, he's got to really do something in
• 36:21
  Speaker 3: that spend up ragn So, yeah, what are you doing
• 36:23
  Speaker 3: in this one?
• 36:24
  Speaker 4: Yeah? With the Cavs definitely gonna be really hard to
• 36:27
  Speaker 4: get them here. I think that there's a good chance
• 36:30
  Speaker 4: somebody has a good game because they have the highest
• 36:33
  Speaker 4: team total on the slate and it's a really good
• 36:35
  Speaker 4: match up against Brooklyn. I just don't know if it's
• 36:38
  Speaker 4: gonna be enough. Like, I definitely have interest in Donovan
• 36:42
  Speaker 4: and James Harden, in particular because Evan Willby coming back
• 36:46
  Speaker 4: I think does hurt the upside of Jared Allen, who's
• 36:47
  Speaker 4: now all whips to seven point one K. The offense
• 36:52
  Speaker 4: has been really good for the Cavs with Harden on
• 36:54
  Speaker 4: the court. Obviously the defense got a little bit worse,
• 36:56
  Speaker 4: but I think getting Gevin Molly back will help out
• 36:58
  Speaker 4: all around. I don't really know, Like, I think it's
• 37:03
  Speaker 4: probably a better spot for Donovan Mitchell. The Nets are
• 37:06
  Speaker 4: a team that just really really looks to take away
• 37:09
  Speaker 4: the pick and roll. That's kind of James Harden his
• 37:12
  Speaker 4: bread and butter on offense. I could see him having
• 37:15
  Speaker 4: like twelve thirteen assists, but the scoring may not be
• 37:18
  Speaker 4: that great, but that should help basically everybody else who's
• 37:21
  Speaker 4: not on ball as much, so like Donald Mitchell could
• 37:24
  Speaker 4: have a ton of open looks. I don't think that
• 37:25
  Speaker 4: they're gonna really be looking to leave Donovan Mitchell open
• 37:28
  Speaker 4: a lot, but could be matchup against some really really
• 37:31
  Speaker 4: weak guard defenders, and if they are selling out to
• 37:34
  Speaker 4: take away the pick and roll, that could help him.
• 37:36
  Speaker 4: I think that Mobley and Allen have good scoring upside
• 37:40
  Speaker 4: for the times that they're on the court, but just
• 37:42
  Speaker 4: probably not playing full minutes. So I'm probably gonna leave
• 37:45
  Speaker 4: it to just Mitchell and Harden as the guys I'm
• 37:47
  Speaker 4: playing on Cleveland and just hope that they do enough
• 37:50
  Speaker 4: in thirty two minutes, or maybe the nets can keep
• 37:54
  Speaker 4: it close enough and they get to full minutes. But
• 37:56
  Speaker 4: I don't really have a lot of confidence there on
• 38:00
  Speaker 4: the net side of things. There's only three guys I'm
• 38:03
  Speaker 4: really looking to play here. I think it's kind of
• 38:06
  Speaker 4: surprising that Michael Port Junior is getting any sort of
• 38:09
  Speaker 4: ownership at eight point six K, but I guess it's
• 38:12
  Speaker 4: I don't know, the slate feels a little bit smaller
• 38:13
  Speaker 4: than it actually is, but they just there's just no
• 38:17
  Speaker 4: reason for them to run him out there for like
• 38:19
  Speaker 4: thirty six thirty eight minutes that we were seeing earlier
• 38:22
  Speaker 4: in the season. I mean, this is a it's gonna
• 38:24
  Speaker 4: be a race to losing games for Brooklyn because they're
• 38:27
  Speaker 4: kind of in that mix. They're at fifteen losses, so
• 38:31
  Speaker 4: definitely have a chance to get into the bottom two,
• 38:33
  Speaker 4: bottom three ish if they keep losing. Michael Port Junior
• 38:37
  Speaker 4: is too good for them to really be throwing games
• 38:40
  Speaker 4: away like that, so I think that he's probably gonna
• 38:41
  Speaker 4: be fairly limited moving forward. Also missed a few games
• 38:44
  Speaker 4: heading into the All Star break, so yeah, no MPJ
• 38:47
  Speaker 4: for me. But I do think Darren Sharp is a
• 38:50
  Speaker 4: pretty solid option of five point nine K averaging thirty
• 38:52
  Speaker 4: seven DK points per game as the start of the season,
• 38:54
  Speaker 4: fresh off of a fifty point five DK outing against
• 38:57
  Speaker 4: Indie last game. Obviously, matchup is a lot tougher, not
• 39:00
  Speaker 4: one that's impossible to put up solid scores against. But yeah,
• 39:05
  Speaker 4: I do worry a little bit about the blowout. I
• 39:07
  Speaker 4: think that if he is not out there and blow out,
• 39:10
  Speaker 4: it's probably gonna be Danny Wolf or Noah Clowney one
• 39:12
  Speaker 4: of those guys. But should probably get like twenty eight
• 39:15
  Speaker 4: minutes from him regardless. On the low end, I think
• 39:17
  Speaker 4: that thirty plus is definitely within the range of outcomes though,
• 39:20
  Speaker 4: and then Yegor Damon and Nolan Trey are the two
• 39:23
  Speaker 4: other guys that I'm considering here at four point nine
• 39:25
  Speaker 4: and four point six. K Jegor has point guard shooting
• 39:28
  Speaker 4: guard eligibility, just point guard for Treori, but the role
• 39:32
  Speaker 4: has been a lot better for Treary over the last
• 39:34
  Speaker 4: five games, been on the ball a lot more. He's
• 39:38
  Speaker 4: averaging over twelve potential assist per game over his last five,
• 39:42
  Speaker 4: and over those last five Yegor's numbers have trained it
• 39:44
  Speaker 4: down mainly the on ball roys as points per game
• 39:47
  Speaker 4: have been up a little bit. But I do think
• 39:49
  Speaker 4: that those two are negatively correlated. It's gonna be one
• 39:51
  Speaker 4: of the other handling the ball for most of the game,
• 39:53
  Speaker 4: So Max one of those two guys, and I would
• 39:55
  Speaker 4: probably say Max two of Brooklyn. Overall, that's it. Yeah,
• 40:00
  Speaker 4: I don't don't really know where else to go with
• 40:02
  Speaker 4: the Cleveland Sucks. I do think that I think they're
• 40:04
  Speaker 4: going to do well. Just tough to see these guys
• 40:07
  Speaker 4: paying off their price tags.
• 40:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm in agreement.
• 40:09
  Speaker 3: And like, even if Don Mitchell gets you fifty five,
• 40:12
  Speaker 3: which would be a great game. It's not necessarily going
• 40:15
  Speaker 3: to bury you on this late. I feel like the
• 40:17
  Speaker 3: downside is a lot greater than the upside. Shout out
• 40:20
  Speaker 3: to our man Mark f uh one or two percent
• 40:23
  Speaker 3: in the eight eighty eight before the All Star break
• 40:25
  Speaker 3: took second for forty k. What a call there. So
• 40:29
  Speaker 3: I don't got too much more after that. Not a
• 40:31
  Speaker 3: game I really want to get in too much. Yeah,
• 40:33
  Speaker 3: if you want Trory Demon on top of day round sharp,
• 40:37
  Speaker 3: that's fine, but Man center is completely loaded. Going to
• 40:39
  Speaker 3: another pretty strong option, the New York Knicks and the
• 40:43
  Speaker 3: Detroit Pistons four that point favorites of the Knicks two
• 40:46
  Speaker 3: nineteen and a half total in this one. No injured
• 40:49
  Speaker 3: news on the Knick side to note, and then the
• 40:51
  Speaker 3: Isaiah Stewart Jalen Duran both suspended. Part of that suspension
• 40:54
  Speaker 3: or that brawl with the Diabate and bridges Paul Reid
• 40:58
  Speaker 3: as you can see, another center option that people will
• 41:00
  Speaker 3: play again, keep saying that, but a lot of lineups,
• 41:03
  Speaker 3: probably two center builds on the slates.
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: Curious to hear your take on towns.
• 41:07
  Speaker 3: If you can flip the build and get a little
• 41:09
  Speaker 3: contrarian that center and get up to him. You didn't
• 41:12
  Speaker 3: mention Brunson a little earlier you mentioned Caide two spend
• 41:15
  Speaker 3: ups on the slates will be somewhat contrarian off of
• 41:18
  Speaker 3: the Tyres Maxey's. I do think Jaylen Johnson probably comes
• 41:20
  Speaker 3: in higher owned than both of them as well. But yeah,
• 41:23
  Speaker 3: two good teams close spread should be a good real
• 41:26
  Speaker 3: life basketball game.
• 41:27
  Speaker 4: Yeah, definitely kind of thought that the last time he
• 41:30
  Speaker 4: seems faced, but Detroit did blow them out. Nicks were shorthanded,
• 41:33
  Speaker 4: I believe. I know Oji missed that game. I think
• 41:37
  Speaker 4: Kat might have missed that game as well. But they'll
• 41:39
  Speaker 4: be fully healthy here. Jose Varado has been playing great
• 41:43
  Speaker 4: and I think that there's definitely a chance that they
• 41:45
  Speaker 4: get the revenge here. They are favorite at home, but
• 41:47
  Speaker 4: I just feel like they are probably set up pretty
• 41:50
  Speaker 4: well to win here. They also added Jeremy Soshian a
• 41:53
  Speaker 4: couple like a week or two ago, and I think
• 41:54
  Speaker 4: that they want to get a look at him in
• 41:56
  Speaker 4: the second unit. He should be probably taking over the
• 41:59
  Speaker 4: deal War spot in the rotation. I know we got
• 42:03
  Speaker 4: a couple of Knicks guys in our Discord Wardo and
• 42:06
  Speaker 4: Para Bay. If you guys have any thoughts there and no,
• 42:07
  Speaker 4: Wardo's pretty plugged in with the Knicks. But yeah, I
• 42:11
  Speaker 4: feel like they they definitely went out to get him
• 42:13
  Speaker 4: for a reason to think that they needed some depth.
• 42:16
  Speaker 4: I don't know what role it is that he's gonna fill.
• 42:18
  Speaker 4: He's kind of a like, not really, I don't know.
• 42:20
  Speaker 4: I guess just kind of a defensive guy that can
• 42:23
  Speaker 4: playmake sometimes but terrible shooter.
• 42:26
  Speaker 3: Not really Jose Alvarado's game in eighteen minutes though thirty
• 42:31
  Speaker 3: seven and a half usage, I mean, dude just absolutely nuked.
• 42:35
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he's been he's been killing. He's been great for them.
• 42:36
  Speaker 4: I love that pickup for the next I think that
• 42:38
  Speaker 4: he's going to be huge in the playoffs, just home games.
• 42:42
  Speaker 4: I can already see it, like him making a play
• 42:44
  Speaker 4: where he you know, gets like a steal and a
• 42:46
  Speaker 4: fast break, gets another steal, like right after that, when
• 42:49
  Speaker 4: he does a little thing where he hides.
• 42:50
  Speaker 3: Off in the corner app I can already see it. Yeah,
• 42:54
  Speaker 3: brings energy. I always want a guy like that on
• 42:55
  Speaker 3: your squad.
• 42:56
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but yeah, I think that this game I do
• 43:00
  Speaker 4: have some interest in, mainly in the spend ups and
• 43:04
  Speaker 4: then obviously Paul Reid, but defensively these are two of
• 43:09
  Speaker 4: the better defense than the league. Detroit is second, Knicks
• 43:11
  Speaker 4: are twelfth. Detroit is ninth in offense. Knicks are third
• 43:15
  Speaker 4: in offense, so kind of kind of an offsetting thing
• 43:18
  Speaker 4: right there. The main way that you want to beat
• 43:20
  Speaker 4: Detroit is with three point shooting. They've been a little
• 43:22
  Speaker 4: bit vulnerable there. They've kind of held pretty much everywhere else.
• 43:26
  Speaker 4: When you take off Duran and Stewart off the court,
• 43:28
  Speaker 4: I think Paul Reid is kind of a underrated defender,
• 43:32
  Speaker 4: so not a huge boost to the offense for the
• 43:36
  Speaker 4: Knicks in particular there, but slightly Buska Beef stew is
• 43:39
  Speaker 4: a really good defender than Jay and Durant is obviously
• 43:41
  Speaker 4: just a freak athlete at the center position. For the Knicks,
• 43:46
  Speaker 4: it's really just two areas that they kind of can
• 43:48
  Speaker 4: give up points at times. Pick and roll has been
• 43:50
  Speaker 4: an issue for them, but og coming back I think
• 43:53
  Speaker 4: helps them. And then obviously the three point defense was
• 43:55
  Speaker 4: an area that where they were really vulnerable earlier in
• 43:57
  Speaker 4: the season. Detroit doesn't have a lot of great three
• 44:00
  Speaker 4: point shooters. I think that they can take that away,
• 44:02
  Speaker 4: which kind of gets me on to Kaid At ten
• 44:04
  Speaker 4: point three. K I think that he's going to do
• 44:06
  Speaker 4: a lot of the heavy lifting here, just with not
• 44:10
  Speaker 4: having a ton of great secondary options behind him. He's
• 44:14
  Speaker 4: been pretty good against OG and Michale Bridges, whichever one
• 44:17
  Speaker 4: it is they put on m he's done pretty good against.
• 44:19
  Speaker 4: He's averaging just under fifty d K points per game
• 44:21
  Speaker 4: over the last two seasons and should benefit a ton
• 44:25
  Speaker 4: from the game being closer. I think we get full,
• 44:27
  Speaker 4: like thirty six thirty eight minutes from him. So I
• 44:30
  Speaker 4: do think if I'm deciding between Maxi and Kaid, obviously
• 44:33
  Speaker 4: it's a pretty big price difference, but I'd be much
• 44:36
  Speaker 4: more interested in getting up to Kate at ten point
• 44:38
  Speaker 4: three K than I would Maxie. Both have pretty tough matchups.
• 44:42
  Speaker 4: The game environment, it's a lot better for Tyrius Maxi,
• 44:44
  Speaker 4: but I just think that kid has like a better,
• 44:48
  Speaker 4: better floor for sure, and then a slightly more appealing ceiling.
• 44:52
  Speaker 2: It feels light on there his minutes as well. Thirty
• 44:54
  Speaker 2: four and a half.
• 44:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's gonna he's probably he should be like thirty six.
• 44:58
  Speaker 4: I think.
• 44:59
  Speaker 3: I mean, man, this series, he's on a different note.
• 45:01
  Speaker 3: But last year in the playoffs, like these two teams
• 45:03
  Speaker 3: and when they match up.
• 45:05
  Speaker 2: They're usually fun games.
• 45:06
  Speaker 4: Yeah, for sure. I think that there's like I don't
• 45:09
  Speaker 4: know if you can call it a rivalry just yet,
• 45:11
  Speaker 4: but I feel like they match up really well and
• 45:13
  Speaker 4: there's probably a lot of just a lot of motivation
• 45:18
  Speaker 4: for both these teams to beat each other. Obviously two
• 45:21
  Speaker 4: of the better teams in the East, so that has
• 45:22
  Speaker 4: a lot to do with it, But I just feel
• 45:24
  Speaker 4: like they match up really well. Yeah, So after Kid,
• 45:28
  Speaker 4: it's pretty much just Paul Reid five point seven K.
• 45:30
  Speaker 4: I think that he did not get a big enough
• 45:32
  Speaker 4: price increase, should be playing thirty plus minutes here. Again,
• 45:35
  Speaker 4: I think in a couple of games that Stuart and
• 45:37
  Speaker 4: Durna miss, he's been at like the thirty to thirty
• 45:39
  Speaker 4: three minute mark in all of those games. And the
• 45:44
  Speaker 4: matchup I think it's a little bit tougher just because
• 45:46
  Speaker 4: Kat is pretty good at drawing fouls. But Paul Reed
• 45:49
  Speaker 4: is just a really really good permanent producer and five
• 45:52
  Speaker 4: point seven K is just too cheap for a guy
• 45:53
  Speaker 4: that's probably playing thirty plus. So he's one of the
• 45:56
  Speaker 4: better center options that I have nothing negative to say
• 45:58
  Speaker 4: about him. In particular, Tobias Harris like fine at a
• 46:01
  Speaker 4: last man in never a guy that's super exciting. That's
• 46:04
  Speaker 4: probably it though, just Cade and Paul Reid for me.
• 46:06
  Speaker 4: On the Detroit side, Nick side, Brunson is gonna see
• 46:10
  Speaker 4: a really tough matchup in Nasara Thompson, but we have
• 46:12
  Speaker 4: seen him post some really good games against him, mainly
• 46:15
  Speaker 4: when he can get a Sar into foul trouble and
• 46:17
  Speaker 4: kind of be matchup with some weaker defenders behind him.
• 46:21
  Speaker 4: But in the last three games Brunton has failed a
• 46:24
  Speaker 4: top thirty DK points against the Pistons, not fully off
• 46:28
  Speaker 4: of him. I do think you can make the case
• 46:30
  Speaker 4: for Brunson over Terrris Maxi, just because he's a little
• 46:34
  Speaker 4: bit cheaper and it's kind of a similar matchup close
• 46:38
  Speaker 4: spread as well, so I think you can make the
• 46:40
  Speaker 4: case there. But it's definitely close, and you kind of
• 46:44
  Speaker 4: alluded to it in the beginning of this game. You
• 46:45
  Speaker 4: could flip the bills and get to Catt a k.
• 46:47
  Speaker 4: He's been playing really well coming into the All Star break,
• 46:50
  Speaker 4: back to back twenty point double doubles and a little
• 46:53
  Speaker 4: bit of a softer matchup with Paul Reid, although not
• 46:56
  Speaker 4: really a cake walk, so I think that you could
• 46:58
  Speaker 4: definitely get to some ca I mean, the price is
• 47:00
  Speaker 4: getting really really low for him. There's been a couple
• 47:04
  Speaker 4: times where he's been really close to some massive games
• 47:06
  Speaker 4: but kind of got shut down due to like blowout
• 47:09
  Speaker 4: and other factors. Like the game against Philly. He could
• 47:12
  Speaker 4: have gone for sixty plus in that one, much softer
• 47:15
  Speaker 4: matchup because I don't know if Embiid was playing. I
• 47:17
  Speaker 4: don't think Embiid was playing in that game. But a
• 47:20
  Speaker 4: similar situation here and then the offense for the Knicks
• 47:24
  Speaker 4: is going to be a lot more efficient now that
• 47:25
  Speaker 4: Og is back. I just looking at the numbers on
• 47:27
  Speaker 4: off with Og. It's a lot better obviously with him
• 47:30
  Speaker 4: on the court. So I think that just overall should
• 47:33
  Speaker 4: help the Knicks offensively. But don't really have interest in
• 47:36
  Speaker 4: Og or Hard here. I think Michael Bridges is somewhat sneaky.
• 47:39
  Speaker 4: I was looking at the usage numbers for McHale. The
• 47:41
  Speaker 4: last time that the teams faced off, he was up
• 47:43
  Speaker 4: to thirty four percent. Running up it was thirty three
• 47:46
  Speaker 4: point seven percent. But I think that they definitely were
• 47:49
  Speaker 4: emphasizing getting the ball out of Kat and Brunson's hands
• 47:53
  Speaker 4: and letting McKale be the guy that beats them and
• 47:56
  Speaker 4: if he can get hot from three, like it's a
• 47:57
  Speaker 4: pretty good matchup for him. So I kind of have
• 47:59
  Speaker 4: a little bit of interest Mkale here. I think that
• 48:02
  Speaker 4: does it. I think you can play hose Elvarado, but
• 48:06
  Speaker 4: I feel like with og back, the minutes are probably
• 48:08
  Speaker 4: coming down.
• 48:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I agree.
• 48:11
  Speaker 3: Man, It's just like you said, two good defensive teams,
• 48:13
  Speaker 3: too good offensive teams as well, but like it feels
• 48:16
  Speaker 3: like it'll be a playoff atmosphere. These dudes are actually
• 48:18
  Speaker 3: gonna be like you're talking about the Hawks and Philly.
• 48:21
  Speaker 3: I mean, these transition points, just how fast the game
• 48:24
  Speaker 3: we played Indiana Washington just feels like a lot less
• 48:27
  Speaker 3: defense will be played in some of these games, which
• 48:30
  Speaker 3: makes me not as interested.
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: I think my favorite, I mean, don't I don't mind.
• 48:34
  Speaker 3: Your bridge shout at very low ownership, but maybe Kat
• 48:37
  Speaker 3: and I would be lying if I said I love
• 48:38
  Speaker 3: Kat because you're I mean, you need a really good
• 48:41
  Speaker 3: game from the opportunity costs at center is big. I
• 48:43
  Speaker 3: think my favorite would just be Paul reed Kaid. Both
• 48:46
  Speaker 3: of them find or just play one and then move on. Like, man,
• 48:50
  Speaker 3: Tobias isn't never a fun click on a seven games
• 48:52
  Speaker 3: slate with decently strong value in a pretty strong mid tier.
• 48:57
  Speaker 3: So I mean we talked about the best games in
• 48:59
  Speaker 3: my opinion, Next game is pretty solid, but yeah, it's
• 49:02
  Speaker 3: a great real life game. Not my favorite in DFS
• 49:06
  Speaker 3: by any means. Before we do get to the next game,
• 49:08
  Speaker 3: got two games left. They just want to show off.

• 50:13
  Speaker 3: partner as well. Two games left. Next one is I
• 50:17
  Speaker 3: don't know, a little interesting. In my opinion, I think
• 50:19
  Speaker 3: it's better than the Nick Detroit game. Better, definitely better
• 50:23
  Speaker 3: than the Cavs and the Nets. We got the Raptors
• 50:26
  Speaker 3: and the Chicago Bulls. We are looking at a six
• 50:29
  Speaker 3: and half point favorites for the Raptors two thirty three
• 50:31
  Speaker 3: and a half total in this one. Only injury on
• 50:34
  Speaker 3: the Toronto side Sandro Mamu Spieley is questionable.
• 50:39
  Speaker 2: No injuries to note on the Chicago side.
• 50:43
  Speaker 3: Sorting by value, RJ Barrett is looking pretty good sort
• 50:46
  Speaker 3: in my ownership, only RJ Barrett getting some Could you
• 50:50
  Speaker 3: make a case for Bi for Scotty for some quickly
• 50:53
  Speaker 3: as contrarian spends and then yeah, what are your thoughts
• 50:56
  Speaker 3: on the bull side?
• 50:57
  Speaker 4: You missed a couple of syllables in Chandro's name.
• 51:00
  Speaker 3: It's Andrew Mamu Mamho's Philly. I don't know. I didn't
• 51:04
  Speaker 3: meet him like I gotta. I got a picture with
• 51:07
  Speaker 3: him at when he was a Milwaukee Buck, him and
• 51:09
  Speaker 3: Jordan Warra for.
• 51:11
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, you love Ordan. He was a hooper. I
• 51:13
  Speaker 4: forgot what happened.
• 51:15
  Speaker 3: I mean, he's just ad case. He doesn't really try much. Indeed,
• 51:18
  Speaker 3: him and Bud didn't like each other. But yeah, I
• 51:19
  Speaker 3: mean when he was in the game an absolute sniper.
• 51:22
  Speaker 3: So yeah, him and I was at the bar. Mamu
• 51:25
  Speaker 3: and war O were there, so yeah, we were talking
• 51:26
  Speaker 3: a bit. But yeah, I don't know where war is
• 51:28
  Speaker 3: doing in life.
• 51:29
  Speaker 2: I'm about to look it up.
• 51:31
  Speaker 3: People are chirping. Yeah, I just call him Mamu. But
• 51:34
  Speaker 3: I tried. I tried when I saw it, repeat, repeat
• 51:37
  Speaker 3: the last name and then take it away.
• 51:39
  Speaker 4: In this game, I think from the same area, honestly.
• 51:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe, yeah, war could snipe. Just hate allergic to
• 51:49
  Speaker 3: playing defense. People are no, that's not true, but the
• 51:54
  Speaker 3: joke Colin, He's been around for a while, but yeah,
• 51:56
  Speaker 3: take it away, keep going.
• 52:00
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think a lot of the fantasy feel from
• 52:02
  Speaker 4: this game comes from the Toronto side. It's gonna be
• 52:05
  Speaker 4: I mean, if there was any team that's gonna be
• 52:07
  Speaker 4: the most of a headache to project for minutes, it's
• 52:10
  Speaker 4: gonna be Chicago. They have all these guards that they're introducing.
• 52:13
  Speaker 4: You got Giddy coming back, Trey Jones coming back now,
• 52:16
  Speaker 4: Jaln Smith is coming back as well, So it's gonna
• 52:18
  Speaker 4: be really gross. It's probably Max one for Chicago here.
• 52:23
  Speaker 4: I just don't see how you can feel confident in
• 52:25
  Speaker 4: any of these guys, like con Sexton is probably the
• 52:28
  Speaker 4: best at five point two k just cheap and has
• 52:30
  Speaker 4: shown a pretty solid role. I don't know. Yeah, I'm
• 52:35
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna just wait and see on the bull stuff,
• 52:37
  Speaker 4: Like I think they'll be better times throughout the season
• 52:39
  Speaker 4: when they're playing a less competitive team and Giddy and
• 52:43
  Speaker 4: Jaylen Smith and Trade Jones some of these other guys
• 52:45
  Speaker 4: will be sitting and we can get back into like
• 52:47
  Speaker 4: the Ivy's sextins dealing ham like I wanted. I think
• 52:51
  Speaker 4: I missed out and like the Yaboo and Nick Richards
• 52:53
  Speaker 4: plays missed some of those slids. So yeah, pretty easy
• 52:57
  Speaker 4: to x out most of Chicago and just being Max
• 52:59
  Speaker 4: One there but Toronto is definitely more appealing. Kind of
• 53:02
  Speaker 4: surprised at the spread only being six and a half
• 53:05
  Speaker 4: in favorite Toronto. It feels like a lot of these
• 53:08
  Speaker 4: Chicago games have been close. I don't remember if it
• 53:10
  Speaker 4: was a show I did with Matt or with you
• 53:13
  Speaker 4: before the All Star Break, but I was just seeing
• 53:16
  Speaker 4: the Chicago was only like six or seven point underdogs
• 53:18
  Speaker 4: end up getting blown out. I feel like that could
• 53:20
  Speaker 4: be the case here, but I'm not smarter than Vegas.
• 53:23
  Speaker 4: I'll just assume that the game is close enough where
• 53:26
  Speaker 4: these raptic guys play their full minutes, which makes all
• 53:29
  Speaker 4: of Scottie Barnes, Ingram Quickly and RJ Barrett very much
• 53:32
  Speaker 4: in play here. I would say that RJ Barrett probably
• 53:36
  Speaker 4: the best points per dollar option at six point three K.
• 53:38
  Speaker 4: Feels like his price is just a little bit too cheap,
• 53:40
  Speaker 4: and the role and matchup and all that is really
• 53:43
  Speaker 4: good here. That time off should definitely benefit him the most.
• 53:47
  Speaker 4: He was a guy that was in and out of
• 53:48
  Speaker 4: the lineup a little bit banged up heading into the
• 53:49
  Speaker 4: All Star break. The Bulls play with pace, they're below
• 53:52
  Speaker 4: average transition defense, which sets up really well for RJ Barrett.
• 53:56
  Speaker 4: So I think that he's probably the safest option of
• 53:58
  Speaker 4: these guys, but I think that's Skottie Barnes has really
• 54:01
  Speaker 4: really appealing to upside here. The Bulls are bottom two
• 54:04
  Speaker 4: and turnover percentage one of the worst rim I believe
• 54:07
  Speaker 4: they're still dead last, and room defense as well. So
• 54:09
  Speaker 4: there's a lot of ways that he could post a
• 54:11
  Speaker 4: really solid state line, and he's been pretty close to
• 54:14
  Speaker 4: some massive games, kind of flirting with that triple double
• 54:16
  Speaker 4: upside that we love to see. So nine point one
• 54:19
  Speaker 4: K for him seems like a pretty solid option, as
• 54:21
  Speaker 4: like a pivot off of Jalen Johnson in a similar role,
• 54:25
  Speaker 4: but a little bit like not as as good of
• 54:28
  Speaker 4: a role as Jalen. But I think the thing that's
• 54:30
  Speaker 4: most exciting was the bottom two turnover percentage for Chicago
• 54:33
  Speaker 4: because I think where you really start to access a
• 54:35
  Speaker 4: big ceiling from Scottie Barnes is when he gets, you know,
• 54:39
  Speaker 4: three steals, four blocks, something like that we saw against Indy,
• 54:42
  Speaker 4: I know, a team that was turnover prone with how
• 54:44
  Speaker 4: thin they were at the guard position, he had four
• 54:46
  Speaker 4: blocks and two steals, sixty four DK points. Could see
• 54:49
  Speaker 4: something like that happening here where he just gets a
• 54:52
  Speaker 4: lot of easy buckets after steals and blocks, so like him,
• 54:56
  Speaker 4: I think Ingram is definitely in play too. He played
• 54:58
  Speaker 4: thirty five minutes or thirty three, yeah, thirty five minutes
• 55:01
  Speaker 4: last time the Bulls and the Raptors faced off, a
• 55:04
  Speaker 4: really good matchup for him as well, put up fifty
• 55:06
  Speaker 4: three DK points. I think that he's gonna have little
• 55:08
  Speaker 4: to no resistance scoring the ball here, So he's generally
• 55:12
  Speaker 4: my least favorite Raptors player to play in DFS. But
• 55:16
  Speaker 4: the prices are close enough between him and Emanuel Quickly
• 55:19
  Speaker 4: that I do prefer Ingram over Quickly here. I think
• 55:23
  Speaker 4: that's probably it. I don't know if I'm ready to
• 55:25
  Speaker 4: play Yaka Pearl yet. The price is really low, but
• 55:27
  Speaker 4: I think that he's going to be extremely limited for
• 55:30
  Speaker 4: the time being. They I mean, they got really good
• 55:32
  Speaker 4: minutes from Sandro and Colin, Murray Boyles and even Trace
• 55:36
  Speaker 4: Jackson Davis in the minutes or the games that PARTO
• 55:40
  Speaker 4: were missing, so I don't think that they need to
• 55:42
  Speaker 4: be running him out there for thirty plus minutes anytime soon.
• 55:45
  Speaker 3: I mean, if I'm the Raptors, I'm playing Calamary Boyles
• 55:47
  Speaker 3: a lot more minutes than I mean whatever he was
• 55:50
  Speaker 3: playing with with Yaka back and I think, yeah, Yakov's
• 55:53
  Speaker 3: price like he's just in the range of Hoff and
• 55:56
  Speaker 3: Reed and Vuk. I mean yes, like outscore most of
• 56:00
  Speaker 3: them in.
• 56:00
  Speaker 2: A vacuum mind much.
• 56:01
  Speaker 3: Rather just try and flip the build, I think with
• 56:03
  Speaker 3: Kata Kong if you are trying to get different at center.
• 56:07
  Speaker 3: But yeah, both side looks like a pretty easy fait.
• 56:09
  Speaker 3: But yeah, all four of those guys in play, and
• 56:10
  Speaker 3: r J is the only one. Like you said, best
• 56:12
  Speaker 3: point per dollar shows ownership is following there as well.
• 56:15
  Speaker 3: But Scotty ingram quickly can get you a little different
• 56:18
  Speaker 3: on the slate. I want to shout out did in
• 56:21
  Speaker 3: the chat, but man five bucks in the thirty eight
• 56:24
  Speaker 3: k yesterday in a parlay.
• 56:26
  Speaker 2: Shout out to Ricky that some awesome stuff. Very very
• 56:29
  Speaker 2: tough to do, all right.
• 56:31
  Speaker 3: Last game of the Knights, Phoenix Suns and the San
• 56:35
  Speaker 3: Antonio Spurs eight and a half point favorites are the
• 56:38
  Speaker 3: Spurs two thirty and a half total in this one
• 56:40
  Speaker 3: on the Spurs side, no injuries to talk about for Phoenix.
• 56:44
  Speaker 2: Dylan Brooks suspension.
• 56:45
  Speaker 3: I believe what he got went over the technical fifteen
• 56:48
  Speaker 3: technicals yeh, and then midday downgrade for Grayson. That's really
• 56:53
  Speaker 3: interesting because this game is on an island at eight
• 56:56
  Speaker 3: thirty if most of the plays will lock as set
• 57:00
  Speaker 3: an eastern, so you have to like go out of
• 57:01
  Speaker 3: your way in my opinion. But if you get that news,
• 57:04
  Speaker 3: I mean d Book at a three and Gillespie at
• 57:06
  Speaker 3: six to six.
• 57:07
  Speaker 2: I think in chockey lineups make a lot of sense.
• 57:10
  Speaker 3: But if Grayson plays, I mean, you're not drawing dead,
• 57:13
  Speaker 3: but you're really not loving your spot when you click them.
• 57:16
  Speaker 3: So yeah, curiously, are your take on the grace in
• 57:18
  Speaker 3: midday downgrade and what that does for this game?
• 57:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 57:21
  Speaker 4: I mean he was dealing with a knee injury before
• 57:24
  Speaker 4: the All Star break and this is an ankle injury,
• 57:27
  Speaker 4: so brand new injury listing. I feel like you gotta
• 57:30
  Speaker 4: imagine he's missing tonight. Hopefully get a little bit more
• 57:35
  Speaker 4: clarification on that heading into the slate, but I would
• 57:38
  Speaker 4: I'd imagine he misses the game, so I'd probably start
• 57:41
  Speaker 4: with whatever projections you make with him out who that
• 57:45
  Speaker 4: would benefit. I think you're probably getting Jordan Goodwin. It's
• 57:48
  Speaker 4: the starting line up. I think he makes the most sense,
• 57:50
  Speaker 4: but I would not be surprised if they go to
• 57:52
  Speaker 4: Jalen Green. I think that now that they've had enough
• 57:56
  Speaker 4: games together and he's getting healthier hopefully, you know, been
• 58:00
  Speaker 4: kind of plagued with the hamstring injury. But they said
• 58:02
  Speaker 4: that they want to eventually have him starting. Maybe it
• 58:05
  Speaker 4: happens tonight. Not sure. Definitely think that he'd be a
• 58:08
  Speaker 4: guy to keep an eye on in the second half
• 58:11
  Speaker 4: of the season as a guy that's going to see
• 58:13
  Speaker 4: more minutes and we know what type of upside he has,
• 58:15
  Speaker 4: at least from a scoring perspective. Still, the price is
• 58:18
  Speaker 4: not I don't really get what Draftings is doing with
• 58:21
  Speaker 4: the pricing of the the Suns really, but yeah.
• 58:24
  Speaker 2: Especially if you're wrong.
• 58:25
  Speaker 3: I mean, like if Grayson somehow played, I mean, you're
• 58:28
  Speaker 3: you're not drawn dead.
• 58:29
  Speaker 2: But you really hate your spot.
• 58:31
  Speaker 4: Yeah, at least you're if you're like, I don't know
• 58:33
  Speaker 4: if I would really be considering Jalen Green, but if
• 58:36
  Speaker 4: you did, you can just drop down to Gillespie. If
• 58:38
  Speaker 4: you have him at guard, you probably just don't play.
• 58:41
  Speaker 4: I probably wouldn't play any of these guys in like
• 58:43
  Speaker 4: the except for Book. Really, I think you're probably safe
• 58:46
  Speaker 4: playing him at point guard. Shooting guard if you skip
• 58:48
  Speaker 4: out on any of the guys before, but anybody in
• 58:51
  Speaker 4: the secondary spot's like Goodwin, Jaalen Green Gillespie gave yourself
• 58:54
  Speaker 4: as much flexibility if Jim if Grayson Allen does get
• 58:59
  Speaker 4: ruled in. But yeah, on the Sun side, like there's
• 59:03
  Speaker 4: really no from a matchup perspective, nothing really stands out
• 59:06
  Speaker 4: here in a big way. Both these teams have been
• 59:09
  Speaker 4: really really solid defensively. I think that the one area
• 59:11
  Speaker 4: that you could take advantage of on the Sun against
• 59:14
  Speaker 4: the Suns is scoring around the basket. Because Mark Willins
• 59:17
  Speaker 4: has really never been that great of a defender. I
• 59:19
  Speaker 4: think Egodoro is a much better defender, and maybe he
• 59:22
  Speaker 4: even plays more. I'm not sure who they would prefer
• 59:25
  Speaker 4: in this matchup against Wemby, but it almost feels like
• 59:28
  Speaker 4: Igodoro matches up a little bit better. Just a guy
• 59:30
  Speaker 4: that's a little bit more agile and athletic at least
• 59:34
  Speaker 4: from just like an agility standpoint. Mark Williams is a
• 59:37
  Speaker 4: bigger body, so maybe he can kind of outstrength Wemby.
• 59:41
  Speaker 4: But yeah, I think that you do want to attack
• 59:44
  Speaker 4: the Suns on the interior. Nothing really from the Spur
• 59:47
  Speaker 4: side they're very rock solid defensively, I prefer Devin Booker
• 59:53
  Speaker 4: if just using one guy in the suns. He's obviously
• 59:55
  Speaker 4: going to get the most ownership because he's we know
• 59:57
  Speaker 4: what type of role he has, but should be pretty
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 4: good from a usage standpoint with Devin Booker out because
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 4: we know that Booker can just take over possessions at times. Sorry,
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 4: Dylan Brooks can take over possessions at times, So not
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 4: having him in there should benefit all these guys in
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 4: a pretty big way. But Booker in particular, been tough
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 4: to get ceiling games from Booker this season. I don't
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 4: know if he's even like what his high as. Maybe
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 4: I know he went for maybe like fifty five fifty
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 4: eight once or twice a season, but in general, been
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 4: pretty tough to find seiling game from him. But now
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 4: that he's eight point three k I think that might
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 4: be one of the lower prices we've seen from him
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 4: this season. Point guardchot guard eligibility makes a ton of
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 4: sense in lineups where you're building more in the mid tiers.
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 4: So I think he's okay.
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 3: You think that's because, I mean, because Dylan Brooks has
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 3: been so good on the offensive end and Grayson Allen
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 3: and just they're buying into team ball where he's just
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 3: i mean, like sounds are way overachieved this year. They're
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 3: playing competitive, so he's just he's playing i mean, not
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 3: his role more. But they're playing more team ball than
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 3: the ISO stuff that they were playing with KD, which
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 3: isn't necessarily good for DFS obviously.
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, definitely, Yeah, I just think that they've kind
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 4: of changed their scheme. It's not a lot of what
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 4: we've seen before. A lot of other guys are mixing
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 4: in on ball and Bookers even talked about his minutes
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 4: coming down a lot, like he was saying, it's weird
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 4: not playing full first quarter rotations anymore. So yeah, I
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 4: think that they are just kind of buying in. So
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 4: pretty cool to see. I mean, I think people expect
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 4: them to be pretty bad this season, but new coach,
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 4: new ownership, over the last few years, I think that
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 4: everybody's really bought in for Phoenix. Yeah, I agree. Yeah,
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 4: I would be giving a boost to Gillespie, be giving
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 4: a boost to Goodwin, but although he's up to five
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 4: point seven K, that's a tougher click. I think Royce
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 4: Williams would be or sorry, Mark Williams would be pretty
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 4: interesting because he's got, i mean, really strong permanent numbers
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 4: when you start to take away some of these guys
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 4: small sample, but without Brooks and Grayson Allen, he's up
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 4: to one point four to six fantasy points for a minute.
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 4: That's better than both day Run Sharp and Paul Reid.
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 4: So if you hit right on the minutes, because one,
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 4: you don't really know what the minus can be like
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 4: for Mark Williams, he can range from like twenty to
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 4: thirty one, So it really just depends how well he's
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 4: matchup against Wemby, how he's doing against him, But you
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 4: could he's a guy that could pop off for a
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 4: pretty big game at really really low ownership as a
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 4: pivot off of those other guys who are cheaper than
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 4: him and bolster project better. So I think that he's
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 4: kind of interesting, But that's it's pretty thin for the
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 4: Phoenix stuff and even the Suns too. I don't or
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 4: the Spurs don't have a ton of interest outside of Wemby.
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 4: I feel like Wenby is probably under owned and a
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 4: really solid Conturan span up option, but we just don't
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 4: really have a ton of value plays and people are
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 4: going to be going to Paul Reid and Vuksvich and
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 4: Dayren Sharp instead of Wemby and some of the other
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 4: centers that we mentioned. But yeah, I don't know. Wenby
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 4: is motivated. Like the all the All Star Break stuff
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 4: and the All Star Game, everybody's talking about him, how
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 4: he was super locked in and they loss. I feel
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 4: like he's a guy that will play with a chip
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 4: on his shoulder, even something as meaningless as as an
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 4: All Star Game. But the minutes are gonna be really
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 4: good for him moving forward. I think that any sort
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 4: of minutes limitation that we were seeing pre All Star
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 4: Break is probably off now. So I think he's pretty
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 4: safe for like thirty three thirty four, and he's easily
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 4: the best point per minuted producer in the slate, so
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 4: he's getting a little bit overlooked with those other center
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 4: options that are much cheaper. I do like Wenby a
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 4: good bit here. I'm just gonna I don't really know
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 4: how the builds look with him, because you do have
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 4: to get pretty creative with your value plays. But Dylan
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 4: Harper is a guy that could fit in as a
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 4: value play. He's been playing really well leading up to
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 4: the All Star Break over the last six game. Six games,
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 4: he's averaging twenty nine DK points per game, so done
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 4: very very well. Don't really have too much interest in
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 4: Dearn Fox or Stefan Castle here, just think that they're
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 4: priced up enough where it's tougher to hit a true
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 4: ceiling game, and it's not a great matchup for either
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 4: of them in particular.
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 3: Mute mute donkey, great breakdown. Looking at one of the
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 3: comments FanDuel, I know we didn't a lot. A lot
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 3: of stuff's kind of similar on FanDuel as it is
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 3: as DraftKings, but the Jalen Green price tag.
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 4: Where is it right here? I saw?
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah, So what are your thoughts obviously completely different, what
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 3: are your thoughts plugging him in just hoping Grayson's out?
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'd definitely be much more willing to do it
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 4: over there. It's just it's different. You're playing a different
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 4: game on fandul because he doesn't score that great over there,
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 4: doesn't really do anything with steals or blocks, so you
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 4: really need a hyper efficient scoring night.
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 3: He has point guard shooting guard eligible, though, which is
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 3: which is nice. Probably more likely to play my shooting guard.
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 3: But like Nemhart is going to be very popular over there, Maxie, Like,
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 3: if you do want to fade some some of the chalk,
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 3: maybe Jalen Green's a little interesting. Gilespie, I think will
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 3: be one to get a decent amount of ownership. Can
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 3: only get a lot stronger on FanDuel. Only fifty six hundred,
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 3: So I mean, yeah, you play him and Grayson's in,
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 3: he's still fine. If he's out, he looks like one
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 3: of the better value plays on the slates. You gotta
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 3: get center right on FanDuel. So just looking at just
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 3: a couple of the differences, but other than that, I think, I.
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 4: Mean it's pretty similar. People are gonna play.
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 3: The Pacer stuff, They're gonna play the Philly stuff. The
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 3: Hawks is interesting. Yeah, I mean I think you broke
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 3: down the slate really well. Oh Jordan Warra playing Nigerian
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 3: professional basketball for anyone interested what war is doing out there,
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 3: I got really not too much more to add, Booker
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 3: or Paulo.
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 2: Paulo.
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 4: I mean, are they playing tonight, No.
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 3: Maybe they're playing on hold on, are they on the
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 3: Fandel slate? No, it's the same slate on Fandel. Yeah,
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 3: it's the same slate. They're in the the after hours,
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 3: the night slate. Ummm, yeah, I really got not too
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 3: much more to add any any final thoughts.
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 4: For you, m no. I was just kind of catching
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 4: up to the live chat. Missed some of these comments,
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 4: but yeah, nothing nothing really else. Good to be back
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 4: doing shows. I believe we have a pretty full slate
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 4: tomorrow as well, a couple of teams that are playing
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 4: tonight or on a back to back as well, so
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 4: keep that in mind. I believe it's oh, Indian Washington
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 4: Washington played each other tomorrow, so it's the baseball series
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 4: Cleveland Charlotte back to back. Atlanta is also on a
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 4: back to back.
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 2: I like that baseball series.
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 3: We'll be we'll be talking to some baseball pretty soon before
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 3: we know it. I know you like baseball. Great great
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 3: year for you in the MLB streets last year. Excited
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 3: for that time. But yeah, you got to monitor us
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 3: the Wash or the Pacers news. That's at seven eastern though,
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 3: so you will get that before lock. Otherwise, it looks
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 3: pretty straightforward for the Injury Department. RIO have all of
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 3: this stuff up NBA Core Report. You can check out
• 1:06:55
