- 0:06Speaker 1: All systems gone clear, the lift.
- 0:08Speaker 2: Of what's going on. Everybody happy Monday, talking some NBA
- 0:37Speaker 2: six games on the slate. What I love to see
- 0:40Speaker 2: is seven pm Eastern to start and the last game
- 0:42Speaker 2: is eight pm Eastern. Obviously there's a night slate showdown
- 0:46Speaker 2: that's not including the main slate stuff. But yeah, we're
- 0:48Speaker 2: talking main slate, like always, six games, solid amounts, everything
- 0:52Speaker 2: locks within an hour. I always love to see that. Yeah,
- 0:56Speaker 2: I always love talking to ball with you as well.
- 0:57Speaker 2: Matt's coming off a nice PGA win over the weekend.
- 1:00Speaker 2: A man of many traits great in a lot of sports.
- 1:03Speaker 2: How are we doing today on this fine Monday.
- 1:04Speaker 1: After Well, I appreciate that man doing okay. I wish
- 1:08Speaker 1: I were feeling a little bit better, but you know
- 1:10Speaker 1: how that goes, especially those of kids know how that goes.
- 1:12Speaker 1: So powering through today. We got a fun slate to
- 1:15Speaker 1: talk about, as you mentioned, a sprint slate. I always
- 1:17Speaker 1: love those starts at seven, ends and eight, last game
- 1:21Speaker 1: Blacks at eight. I should say, injury news all over.
- 1:24Speaker 1: Typical NBA slate for March, but I'm excited to break
- 1:28Speaker 1: it down with.
- 1:28Speaker 2: You absolutely, yeah, I mean mid March. I'm not even
- 1:32Speaker 2: gonna lie I'm in the NBA streets, I'm playing, But
- 1:35Speaker 2: I mean, March Madness is on my mind. These kids
- 1:37Speaker 2: go out there and compete every single game, every single second,
- 1:41Speaker 2: and we get that for yeah, like three weeks, four weeks.
- 1:43Speaker 2: I'm gonna be down in the Final four in Indianapolis,
- 1:46Speaker 2: and Big Marley's stopping grounds coming up in a couple
- 1:48Speaker 2: weeks for a basket, probably him going to Vegas tomorrow
- 1:51Speaker 2: just for the day. So yeah, it's a good life
- 1:53Speaker 2: over here. And yeah, I mean I'm excited for prizes
- 1:57Speaker 2: are good. The five to fifty five is six hundred
- 1:59Speaker 2: people up there. It was almost twenty thousand in the flagship,
- 2:02Speaker 2: So it's still nice to see that the prizes are
- 2:04Speaker 2: still rolling for NBA. But yeah, I'd be lying if
- 2:07Speaker 2: I wasn't really pumped for March Madness growing up. Always
- 2:10Speaker 2: been one of my favorite things.
- 2:11Speaker 1: Say, man, March Madness ensa Attorney maybe my favorite sporting
- 2:16Speaker 1: event growing up. I remember many a days my dad
- 2:19Speaker 1: let me stay home from school watching Attorney, you know,
- 2:22Speaker 1: filling out brackets, picking teams, just an overall great fan
- 2:26Speaker 1: experience with games on all day, upsets, et cetera. I
- 2:29Speaker 1: can't wait for it as well.
- 2:31Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely gonna be great. Who else do we have
- 2:33Speaker 2: in Chad? We got Jordan Michael Marquis, pair by William Name,
- 2:40Speaker 2: Philly Young. Nick. Appreciate everyone hanging out with We got
- 2:44Speaker 2: played Night Slate last night, seventh till halftime. Yeah. Yeah,
- 2:50Speaker 2: it's crazy out there. There's no doub especially small slates
- 2:52Speaker 2: like the Night Slate. One little thing can change everything.
- 2:55Speaker 2: Then a couple of years these kids will be on
- 2:57Speaker 2: shitty NBA teams tanking. Yeah, unfortunately, that's how the NBA is.
- 3:01Speaker 2: I'm waiting for the NBA to come up with some
- 3:03Speaker 2: plan where we don't see taking before the All Star
- 3:05Speaker 2: break anymore. That is absolutely pathetic. Saint John's win it
- 3:09Speaker 2: all an any takes from you in the college streets,
- 3:12Speaker 2: any Who's gonna win it all? Any upsets, anything like that,
- 3:15Speaker 2: if you dove in at all.
- 3:16Speaker 1: I've dove in a little bit. I'm a huge I'm
- 3:19Speaker 1: a huge college hoops head, so I can't play college
- 3:21Speaker 1: sports DFS in Ohio. But again, college football and basketball
- 3:25Speaker 1: to my all time favorite love, so follow them very closely.
- 3:28Speaker 1: I don't mind the Saint John's call. I mean, i'd
- 3:30Speaker 1: be surprised if they won it all, because you'd be
- 3:32Speaker 1: surprised if any team over the field won at all.
- 3:35Speaker 1: I think a five seed didn't do them any justice.
- 3:37Speaker 1: I was expecting them to be like a four or three.
- 3:40Speaker 1: The team that I think is playing the best hoops
- 3:42Speaker 1: going into Attorney is Florida. Okay, playing really good ball.
- 3:46Speaker 1: They got really good guards, they got big men that
- 3:49Speaker 1: rebound for a long time. This entire season, I thought
- 3:52Speaker 1: Michigan was the best team pretty clearly, and then Duke
- 3:55Speaker 1: and then everyone else. I've changed that stance now I
- 3:58Speaker 1: have Florida as the best team with Michigan, Duke, and
- 4:01Speaker 1: Arizona all right behind them. So that's how I see it.
- 4:04Speaker 1: We'll see how it plays out.
- 4:06Speaker 2: I like it. I'll keep that in mind when I'm
- 4:08Speaker 2: filling out the brackets. I appreciate every all one hundred
- 4:11Speaker 2: and thirty watching live right now. I know many trickle in,
- 4:13Speaker 2: many watch on playback. All we do ass is like
- 4:15Speaker 2: bun subscribe button helps us out a ton, and yeah,
- 4:19Speaker 2: I say, we get right into the slate. At seven
- 4:21Speaker 2: pm Easter, in the first game of the night, the
- 4:23Speaker 2: Golden State Warriors seven half point favorites over the Washington
- 4:25Speaker 2: Wizards two thirty three and a half total in this one,
- 4:28Speaker 2: which is definitely solid in terms of injury news. On
- 4:31Speaker 2: the Golden State side, Moses Moody, no Al Horford, Quinton
- 4:35Speaker 2: Post and LJ. Cryer questionable, so not injury news that
- 4:39Speaker 2: you think mean too much. But on this slate, I
- 4:42Speaker 2: mean there's not too many Q tags and no Horford,
- 4:45Speaker 2: no Moody, two rotational pieces, Posts and Cryer get minutes too,
- 4:49Speaker 2: so if they were to be out that would mean
- 4:51Speaker 2: a little bit on the slate. Obviously we will get
- 4:52Speaker 2: it prior to Locke. On the Washington side, no Sar,
- 4:57Speaker 2: no Leaky Black, and then nothing new in that. So yeah,
- 5:01Speaker 2: sort of my ownership in this game. Some Chris STAPs,
- 5:03Speaker 2: some Draymond, some Gary Payton, and then after that, I mean,
- 5:07Speaker 2: I agree, Washington's side I think is tough, probably Max
- 5:10Speaker 2: one pinning which one down is tough for me. See
- 5:12Speaker 2: if you have a take there. But yeah, I think
- 5:14Speaker 2: porzingis I'm never a big Draymond guy, but again they're
- 5:18Speaker 2: a little thin in the front core. I think Gary
- 5:20Speaker 2: Payton's a little interesting for value, and it only could
- 5:22Speaker 2: get better with Crier and post Q tags as well,
- 5:25Speaker 2: so what do you see in this first game?
- 5:31Speaker 1: You got me, I got you now. I lost you
- 5:34Speaker 1: for a second, but I.
- 5:34Speaker 2: Got you now hopefully hopefully it's it wasn't Internet.
- 5:39Speaker 1: It was not Internet.
- 5:40Speaker 2: All right, good? So yeah, Porzing, what I was saying,
- 5:43Speaker 2: porzingis Gary Payton, maybe Draymond I think are fine, but
- 5:48Speaker 2: I don't love Draymond always. But again, without Moody and Horford,
- 5:52Speaker 2: two rotational pieces and then Crier and Post is actually important.
- 5:56Speaker 2: It is relatively important because they would be relatively thin
- 5:59Speaker 2: and I think would make this Golden State value pretty solid.
- 6:02Speaker 2: But regardless, I got interest in porzingis Gary Payton indifferent
- 6:06Speaker 2: at Draymond if he is nineteen percent?
- 6:08Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm with you. Like Golden State obviously looks
- 6:11Speaker 1: good here they're a little bit short handed, they're facing Washington,
- 6:15Speaker 1: Draymond's back. I hate playing Draymond in the spot like this,
- 6:17Speaker 1: like in Washington in March, just doesn't seem like the
- 6:20Speaker 1: spot that he's gonna get up for. That said it,
- 6:22Speaker 1: it's a really good spot. So because of that, everyone
- 6:25Speaker 1: from Washington or from Golden State, excuse me, he's gonna
- 6:27Speaker 1: be in play. The two guys that I'm probably gonna
- 6:29Speaker 1: target in on most are two of the cheaper guys
- 6:33Speaker 1: KP you mentioned Porzingis certainly wouldn't hurt him if like
- 6:36Speaker 1: Post is out as well, not playing big minutes but
- 6:39Speaker 1: smashing in small minutes right now. And he's in a
- 6:41Speaker 1: really good spot revenge angle if you're into that sort
- 6:44Speaker 1: of thing. He looks like to me the best play
- 6:46Speaker 1: from Golden State at fifty five hundred Gary Payton. He
- 6:50Speaker 1: also looks pretty good to me here forty five hundred.
- 6:53Speaker 1: This is the type of spot I love him here.
- 6:54Speaker 1: I love him in against the young team that turns
- 6:57Speaker 1: the ball over a lot, could see him rack up
- 6:59Speaker 1: the stock in the spot forty five hundred for him
- 7:02Speaker 1: at again, both shooting guard and small forward, I like
- 7:05Speaker 1: that a lot. So those are the two guys I'm
- 7:07Speaker 1: gonna be I think targeting the most. Again, you mentioned
- 7:10Speaker 1: Draymond himself, pretty good price tags that don't hate that
- 7:14Speaker 1: tough for me to get to, like a seventy three
- 7:16Speaker 1: hundred dollars Gie Santos, but again it's not the biggest slate.
- 7:20Speaker 1: I wouldn't like argue with anyone that wanted to spend
- 7:24Speaker 1: up on Golden State. Guys, It's just not the route
- 7:26Speaker 1: I'm gonna take personally as far as Washington goes Kolabali, sure,
- 7:31Speaker 1: five K, But again, I don't think you're doing anything
- 7:35Speaker 1: special there. I think it's just a filler piece. So
- 7:38Speaker 1: I think this game looks a little bit better from
- 7:40Speaker 1: a thirty thousand foot view, but wouldn't be surprised at
- 7:42Speaker 1: all if a couple three four guys from Golden State
- 7:45Speaker 1: ended up getting there. Because it's the Wizards.
- 7:48Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that's exactly like you said. Wizard's one
- 7:50Speaker 2: of the best matchups you're looking right now, just implied
- 7:52Speaker 2: points one hundred and twenty for the Warriors, even a
- 7:55Speaker 2: little shorthanded, that's a third on the slates, and we
- 7:58Speaker 2: do have a decent amount of big total, Like this
- 8:00Speaker 2: is the tie for the second closest at seven and
- 8:02Speaker 2: a half. This next game we'll talk about is the
- 8:05Speaker 2: closest a solid total. Golden State's a little thin. Yeah.
- 8:09Speaker 2: On the Wizard side, I think Trey Johnson and then
- 8:11Speaker 2: coolboll it would be my two favorites. I'm not in
- 8:13Speaker 2: love with either of them, that's for sure. And then
- 8:16Speaker 2: Warrior's side another one I could maybe get beyond it.
- 8:19Speaker 2: I don't mind your gi Santo's call seventy three hundred
- 8:21Speaker 2: though that kind of a sticker shock price tag, which
- 8:24Speaker 2: is the only thing holding me back a little. I
- 8:26Speaker 2: think the Anthony Melton is someone that I would be
- 8:29Speaker 2: fine with. I mean, just the Wizards are so careless
- 8:31Speaker 2: with the basketball. They play at a solid pace. Melton's
- 8:34Speaker 2: a good defender, can take advantage, maybe a steal in transition,
- 8:39Speaker 2: get a free bucket. Six K, I think is a
- 8:41Speaker 2: fine price tag with guard and forward eligibility at low ownership.
- 8:45Speaker 2: But yeah, mainly Peyton porzingis for me in this spot.
- 8:49Speaker 2: But my monitor l J. Cryer and Quinton Posts because
- 8:52Speaker 2: if Quinton Post misses, I mean, that would only benefit
- 8:56Speaker 2: Draymond for sure. Are they gonna go like they're not
- 9:01Speaker 2: gonna go You're at seven to start? Are they they're
- 9:03Speaker 2: gonna play at Porzingis Draymond and then your at seven
- 9:06Speaker 2: gets some of the backup five stuff? Is how I
- 9:08Speaker 2: imagine it go.
- 9:09Speaker 1: I would too. It's just difficult because Porzingis don't play
- 9:12Speaker 1: a lot of minutes, so it's like they're not gonna
- 9:14Speaker 1: increase his minutes a ton. It's just a matter of
- 9:17Speaker 1: you know how they disperse those minutes, so all of
- 9:20Speaker 1: a sudden you get post out. I think yerk seven
- 9:23Speaker 1: is at least worth looking at in big GPPs. That's
- 9:26Speaker 1: about as far as I take it for now.
- 9:28Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, maybe Draymond gets more a couple more minutes
- 9:32Speaker 2: boost if there's no posts, If Porzingis's minutes aren't gonna
- 9:35Speaker 2: go up, if you're at seven's, I mean, he's gonna
- 9:38Speaker 2: kind of be at held in check. Maybe Draymond would
- 9:40Speaker 2: have to play a couple more because it's only seven
- 9:42Speaker 2: and a half points spread at the end of the day,
- 9:43Speaker 2: Golden State's trying to win this game.
- 9:45Speaker 1: Yeah, good point. I mean, Golden State is certainly missing
- 9:48Speaker 1: a lot of their best players, so hard to think
- 9:50Speaker 1: they're gonna cake walk against anyone, And all of a sudden,
- 9:52Speaker 1: if you get into like a kind of competitive game here,
- 9:55Speaker 1: Golden State missing a bunch of their big men. Like, yeah,
- 9:58Speaker 1: I don't like the idea of playing dram in this spot.
- 10:00Speaker 1: It sounds gross playing him in Washington in March, but like,
- 10:04Speaker 1: there are certainly outcomes here where he smashes and you
- 10:06Speaker 1: need him in this spot, so I get it.
- 10:09Speaker 2: Yeah, with post out, i'd be more willing to go
- 10:11Speaker 2: there for sure, and nineteen percent with post in feels
- 10:14Speaker 2: feels a little tough, all right. Next game on the slate,
- 10:17Speaker 2: also at seven pm Easter and closest spread on the slate.
- 10:20Speaker 2: The Hawks are three and half point favorites over the
- 10:23Speaker 2: Magic two thirty one and a half total in this one.
- 10:26Speaker 2: For the Magic still without Anthony Black and then Jet
- 10:28Speaker 2: Howard is questionable and on the Atlanta side, Jonathan Kaminga
- 10:33Speaker 2: is questionable. I will admit it does feel a little
- 10:36Speaker 2: weird seeing the Hawks being favorites. But with that being said,
- 10:40Speaker 2: Dyson Daniels, Jalen Johnson CJ, all these guys are question
- 10:45Speaker 2: or are healthy? A cong wu gnaw Like they're pretty
- 10:48Speaker 2: much full strength outside of what they don't got Trey
- 10:51Speaker 2: Young in this spot.
- 10:53Speaker 1: Well he's on Washington now, so yeah, yeah, he's on
- 10:55Speaker 1: Washington on tweaking.
- 10:56Speaker 2: We just talked about it. Am I bad, but yeah,
- 11:00Speaker 2: I mean it's a fully healthy Atlanta team and their
- 11:02Speaker 2: favorites over this Magic team, who it's got a lot
- 11:05Speaker 2: of respect in the betting market as of lates and
- 11:07Speaker 2: they're fully healthy as well. So yeah, what are your
- 11:11Speaker 2: thoughts on this one? Obviously they're without Franz, but fully
- 11:13Speaker 2: healthy like what they have been as of lates, so
- 11:17Speaker 2: I'm surprised to see it. I'd be betting the magic
- 11:19Speaker 2: personally if having to choose, but take it away.
- 11:22Speaker 1: Yeah, so I think this game probably sets up a
- 11:24Speaker 1: little bit better from a real life perspective than a
- 11:26Speaker 1: DFS perspective, just because you mentioned their healthy squads here,
- 11:30Speaker 1: Like Franz has been out forever, so Orlando is priced
- 11:32Speaker 1: as such and Atlanta is healthy. So the case for
- 11:37Speaker 1: this game to me is that tight spread presumably going
- 11:41Speaker 1: to be a close game, really good players and no
- 11:44Speaker 1: ownership or not a lot of ownership. Now that said,
- 11:47Speaker 1: there isn't anyone from this game that looks like a
- 11:50Speaker 1: lock and load from a points per hour perspective, or
- 11:53Speaker 1: a guy you're playing in cash games. I think in
- 11:55Speaker 1: cash games you might be avoiding this game altogether just
- 11:58Speaker 1: because of how it's priced. But in tournament certainly is
- 12:01Speaker 1: a different story. So in GPPs, Baine and Sugs two
- 12:05Speaker 1: guys playing well right now, I think they're both wildly
- 12:08Speaker 1: in play as like medium spend up options. Powlow himself
- 12:13Speaker 1: as a spend up option. Like again, it's nothing about
- 12:16Speaker 1: the price tag or the spot. It's just about that
- 12:17Speaker 1: he's really good smallish slate and he can break any
- 12:21Speaker 1: slate he's on at that price in this kind of spot.
- 12:24Speaker 1: Again without ten other games, only five other games. I
- 12:28Speaker 1: feel the same about Jalen Johnson as I do pollow
- 12:31Speaker 1: certainly would prefer Jalen Johnson, but he's thirteen hundred more.
- 12:36Speaker 1: The projection isn't that much more, and and a lot
- 12:40Speaker 1: of spots you're seeing Powlow get more ownership, and I
- 12:42Speaker 1: get that, Like I'm a little bit intrigued by running
- 12:46Speaker 1: a Jalen Johnson Powlow like two Man and then maybe
- 12:48Speaker 1: a couple other pieces from this game, But I just
- 12:52Speaker 1: think it's priced out for me, Like I think the
- 12:54Speaker 1: prices are where they should be, or guys are a
- 12:56Speaker 1: little bit too expensive. So outside of like sugs, I
- 13:01Speaker 1: don't think I'm gonna get to it again. The case
- 13:03Speaker 1: to get to it is that there's really good players
- 13:05Speaker 1: that low ownership, but nothing about the price DAGs make
- 13:08Speaker 1: me scream I got a roster anyone here?
- 13:11Speaker 2: Yeah, it is. The two most expensive plays on the
- 13:13Speaker 2: slate are Jalen Johnson and Paulo, both not getting too
- 13:17Speaker 2: much ownership. A lot of that has to do with
- 13:20Speaker 2: I mean, the value on the slate solid, but it's
- 13:22Speaker 2: not like there's really three K value. Like we just
- 13:25Speaker 2: talked about some on the Warrior stuff. Mid tier build
- 13:27Speaker 2: is gonna be jammed and Josh Giitty's projecting very well
- 13:31Speaker 2: against in a great matchup against the Grizzlies at nine K,
- 13:34Speaker 2: so a lot of people are just gonna go him
- 13:36Speaker 2: is the highest spend. And then there's like Zion's only
- 13:38Speaker 2: seven point five K, Clingland is projected pretty well at
- 13:41Speaker 2: seven point eight K, there's Trey Murphy. It just feels
- 13:44Speaker 2: like a lot of people are gonna giddy as the
- 13:47Speaker 2: as the highest priced player, and then from there they're
- 13:50Speaker 2: gonna find a couple four K five K value, see
- 13:52Speaker 2: what mid tier fits, and goes from there, which it
- 13:55Speaker 2: is a little tougher to get. Jalen Johnson, like Paulo,
- 13:58Speaker 2: would be my preferred spend in this game. If choosing
- 14:00Speaker 2: or then I'd probably go Sugs or Bane over Jalen Johnson,
- 14:04Speaker 2: just because again I don't want to completely dumpster dive
- 14:07Speaker 2: too much on this slate, and that's a big boy
- 14:09Speaker 2: price take for Jalen Johnson for sure. So I do
- 14:12Speaker 2: think the Polos, the Baynes, the Sugs is interesting. I
- 14:16Speaker 2: think they're underprojected in terms of minutes for sabersim right
- 14:19Speaker 2: here which you can see the minutes and the fantasy
- 14:22Speaker 2: point per minute right on the side. What about like
- 14:26Speaker 2: a Tristan to Silvia, I know, talk about sticker shock too,
- 14:29Speaker 2: that prices continue to rise. It's been playing solid basketball though.
- 14:32Speaker 2: Him and Wendell Carter are the two that I'm Wendell's
- 14:35Speaker 2: showing twenty two percent ownership. I don't know necessarily no
- 14:39Speaker 2: if that's going to be the case. Vaguely Jalen Smith
- 14:42Speaker 2: clinging if he's twenty two percent, no, no, thank you.
- 14:46Speaker 2: But because Mo Wagner's plays a decent amount as the bag,
- 14:49Speaker 2: I'd actually I think prefer at no ownership Mo Wagner
- 14:53Speaker 2: three point four k, then at twenty two percent Wendo Carter.
- 14:56Speaker 2: But if he's like fourteen percent, which I think could
- 14:58Speaker 2: be more likely, I have maybe a little interest. What
- 15:01Speaker 2: are your thoughts on him? And then Tristan da Silva.
- 15:04Speaker 1: So I agree totally on Carter, like I don't want
- 15:06Speaker 1: him at over twenty percent. I don't think he gets
- 15:08Speaker 1: there though, So I think He's perfectly fine until your
- 15:10Speaker 1: original point. I think you were spot on, So this
- 15:13Speaker 1: slate is not really playing out to where it's feasible
- 15:17Speaker 1: or optimal, I should say, on paper, at least to
- 15:19Speaker 1: roster like Paolo and or Jalen Johnson. The big problem
- 15:23Speaker 1: I have with flipping the build per se and like
- 15:25Speaker 1: getting to those guys is you mentioned that people are
- 15:29Speaker 1: gonna build with like the Clingion and Zions and giddies
- 15:32Speaker 1: and then fill up their lineups with value between four
- 15:35Speaker 1: and five K. The problem with getting away from that
- 15:38Speaker 1: is there is a lot of value between four and
- 15:40Speaker 1: five K, so I think I'd rather get different within
- 15:43Speaker 1: that value than completely flip the build. But we'll see
- 15:47Speaker 1: maybe more value comes out closer to Locke. It's the NBA,
- 15:49Speaker 1: so you never know. To the DeSilva point, man, I
- 15:53Speaker 1: do have sticker sock fifty six hundred for him. He
- 15:55Speaker 1: has been really good and it gives you exposure to
- 15:57Speaker 1: this game. But I think I think it's almost like
- 16:01Speaker 1: a classic case of you're spending up to be contrarian here,
- 16:04Speaker 1: like certainly he's not expensive and you're not spending all
- 16:07Speaker 1: the way up, but he's more expensive than he should be.
- 16:09Speaker 1: For his projection. So if you're really buying into how
- 16:12Speaker 1: he's playing, I think he's a good differentiator on this slate.
- 16:16Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it seems like a direct pivot off
- 16:18Speaker 2: of Draymond and a lot lower ownership, and I'm not
- 16:20Speaker 2: sure the projection is necessarily caught up. Like his last
- 16:23Speaker 2: three games, he's known for being a low usage guy,
- 16:25Speaker 2: plays his role. He's shot twelve eighteen and thirteen field
- 16:29Speaker 2: goal temes twenty twenty one eighteen percent usage in those games.
- 16:33Speaker 2: It's the closest spread on the slates.
- 16:35Speaker 1: So you were really hyping him up after the Cavs
- 16:37Speaker 1: game too, like everyone on Orlando is hyping him up,
- 16:40Speaker 1: and to your point about how projections might not have
- 16:43Speaker 1: caught up, and like he's known as a low usage guy.
- 16:46Speaker 1: This was still like a first round pick last year.
- 16:48Speaker 1: That was an absolute stunt at Stanford, So like, yeah,
- 16:50Speaker 1: it's not like he doesn't have game. Now. You could
- 16:52Speaker 1: say that about a lot of guys or pretty much
- 16:54Speaker 1: everyone in the NBA, but it's there, and maybe he's
- 16:57Speaker 1: getting a little bit unleashed right now.
- 16:59Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I like the numbers I'm seeing, I
- 17:01Speaker 2: like the ownership. I think he's underprojected a bit. And
- 17:04Speaker 2: I mean he played forty yeah, thirty four minutes against
- 17:07Speaker 2: the Cavs, thirty six DK points, forty one minutes against
- 17:10Speaker 2: the Wizards, fifty DK points, tougher match against Miami thirty
- 17:13Speaker 2: one minutes twenty nine. But yeah, at projection twenty five
- 17:17Speaker 2: points sixty nine, it just feels like a little underpriced.
- 17:20Speaker 2: And again, right, Draymond, who's going to be four or
- 17:22Speaker 2: five times as his own who he didn't necessarily love
- 17:25Speaker 2: right there, if you're trying to get off of porzingis
- 17:26Speaker 2: a bit in limited minutes. He's someone that stands out
- 17:29Speaker 2: a way to get exposure to this game. What about
- 17:33Speaker 2: a CJ or Dyson Daniels. I love playing Diyson Daniels.
- 17:36Speaker 2: I always have like I'm more likely to go to
- 17:39Speaker 2: them than I am Jalen Johnson at ownership, But I
- 17:44Speaker 2: mean it's still real price takes on this slid, I
- 17:46Speaker 2: do think I prefer Sugs and Baine.
- 17:47Speaker 1: On the other side, I also prefer Sugs and Dame,
- 17:50Speaker 1: but I think you can throw Daniels in the mix
- 17:51Speaker 1: with them, especially with all Ford eligibility. He can always
- 17:54Speaker 1: pop with the stocks, So he's not like someone I'm
- 17:58Speaker 1: like I need to roster, but he's in the Like,
- 18:00Speaker 1: I'm not mad if I land on him at all,
- 18:02Speaker 1: especially on this type of slate where we've talked about it,
- 18:05Speaker 1: Guys in his price range are gonna be desirable.
- 18:07Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, yeah. I mean it's again, when seven and
- 18:10Speaker 2: a half's the second closest spread on the slate and
- 18:12Speaker 2: this one's three and a half, it's wild, I know, definitely. Yeah,
- 18:18Speaker 2: how is it by you? I mean, Wisconsin's getting hit
- 18:20Speaker 2: real hard. Yeah.
- 18:24Speaker 1: To get nine inches tomorrow.
- 18:25Speaker 2: Well, my gosh, crazy stuff.
- 18:27Speaker 1: After it's like gotten nice a little bit, you know,
- 18:30Speaker 1: like we said, when it rains, it pour us a
- 18:31Speaker 1: little bit. But we'll get through this too. Hopefully it's
- 18:33Speaker 1: just a little bit of a snowstorm and then baseball
- 18:35Speaker 1: will be on the other side.
- 18:36Speaker 2: Yeah, there you go. Yeah, March man, if there was
- 18:39Speaker 2: a snowstorm and stuff this week, you might as well
- 18:41Speaker 2: have it later in the week with March madness. Then
- 18:43Speaker 2: you don't have to leave your house. You can just
- 18:44Speaker 2: sit on the couch.
- 18:45Speaker 1: I would be I can only imagine if this was
- 18:48Speaker 1: happening though, Like over the past weekend, when I couldn't
- 18:50Speaker 1: get on absolutely anything, I had to drive just to
- 18:53Speaker 1: get on cellular data, which is the absolute worst. So yeah,
- 18:57Speaker 1: so hopeful that everything's good this weekend.
- 18:59Speaker 2: Yeah, fully for sure. All right, we'll keep it rolling.
- 19:02Speaker 2: The next game on the slate seven thirty pm Eastern
- 19:05Speaker 2: is the Phoenix Suns as eight and a half point
- 19:07Speaker 2: underdogs to the Boston Celtics two fourteen and a half,
- 19:10Speaker 2: by far the lowest total on the Phoenix side. No
- 19:13Speaker 2: new injuries, and the same can be said about Boston.
- 19:16Speaker 2: So relatively big spread, a very low total, no injuries
- 19:20Speaker 2: to really talk about. Usually that means a pretty bad
- 19:23Speaker 2: game in terms of DFS interests, and I really don't
- 19:27Speaker 2: like it too much. I think Jason Tatum would be
- 19:31Speaker 2: my favorite play at eighty six hundred, a little discount
- 19:34Speaker 2: off of Jalen Brown. The minutes are finally starting to
- 19:36Speaker 2: creep up implied. I mean just the usage is so
- 19:40Speaker 2: good with him and Jelen Brown. I have nothing wrong
- 19:42Speaker 2: or nothing bad to say about Jalen Brown. He does
- 19:44Speaker 2: have guard Ford eligibility, which is nice, but it feels
- 19:48Speaker 2: like it's slowly but surely gonna start kind of teetering
- 19:50Speaker 2: to the Tatum back to him and like him running
- 19:53Speaker 2: the show a little more so, Yeah, jailing Green's projecting
- 19:57Speaker 2: pretty well, which we're showing if he's twenty eight percent owned.
- 20:01Speaker 2: I don't know if I can really do that. But yeah,
- 20:03Speaker 2: what are you seeing in this game? Not my favorite
- 20:05Speaker 2: by any means.
- 20:06Speaker 1: Yeah, I see a lot of what you're seeing. Guy's
- 20:08Speaker 1: price where they should be not very not a very
- 20:10Speaker 1: desirable game for DFS purposes. That said, I do feel
- 20:14Speaker 1: like it has a little bit of similar vibes to
- 20:16Speaker 1: the last Game, where I think you can make a
- 20:18Speaker 1: case for spending up on like Tatum and Booker here.
- 20:21Speaker 1: Booker expensive and not going to project well at all.
- 20:25Speaker 1: But it's a six games slate, and I'm trying to
- 20:27Speaker 1: get to the top of tournaments, you know. So like
- 20:30Speaker 1: the guy like Devin Booker who had been playing really
- 20:33Speaker 1: good ball before his last game, and it's not like
- 20:35Speaker 1: he was bad last game, he just wasn't great for DFS,
- 20:38Speaker 1: Like I could see getting to him at like one
- 20:40Speaker 1: percent ownership in tournaments again, trying to take down the field,
- 20:45Speaker 1: especially in like a qualifier type setting. I really like
- 20:48Speaker 1: Booker where it's you know, winner take all and losers
- 20:50Speaker 1: get nothing. So I'm a little bit intrigued here with
- 20:54Speaker 1: Booker and then Tatum as you mentioned on the other side,
- 20:56Speaker 1: but playing limited lineups, man, it's gonna be really hard
- 21:00Speaker 1: to get there when guys like de Jonte Murray project
- 21:04Speaker 1: basically as well. So yeah, I think it's a classic
- 21:07Speaker 1: spend up to be contrarian, but it's really only Booker
- 21:10Speaker 1: and Tatum for me, I like the Tatum shout, just
- 21:13Speaker 1: not sure it's the right flight for.
- 21:14Speaker 2: It is, uh. I mean, man, Like, if you're just
- 21:18Speaker 2: looking at Jial Green's last two games, he's really good. Yeah,
- 21:22Speaker 2: impossible not to have interest. Mid thirties minutes, He's absolutely
- 21:25Speaker 2: chucking the basketball. I'm him and Booker are pretty much
- 21:28Speaker 2: doing everything. I mean, last game, the Due shot sixteen
- 21:32Speaker 2: to three pointers against the Raptors. Do you believe that
- 21:35Speaker 2: twenty eight percent ownership? And then how would he compare
- 21:38Speaker 2: to a Suggs, to a Bane, to Dice and Daniels
- 21:43Speaker 2: kind of Trey Murphy like, that's kind of the range
- 21:45Speaker 2: we're talking with him. I mainly the ownership stuff is
- 21:49Speaker 2: what I'm curious on. Thirty percent For a guy that
- 21:52Speaker 2: relies a lot on shooting, it's a little more difficult.
- 21:54Speaker 2: But if that ownership's hot and he's like mid teens
- 21:57Speaker 2: or something. I mean, then, yeah, a guy that can
- 21:59Speaker 2: shoot sixteen threes in a game is has some interest,
- 22:02Speaker 2: but obviously a way tougher matchup in this one, Derek
- 22:05Speaker 2: White Brown whoever they want to chase him around. I mean,
- 22:08Speaker 2: it's a lot different than his past couple.
- 22:11Speaker 1: The ownership question is a real one because he is
- 22:14Speaker 1: projected widely different throughout the entire industry, depending on where
- 22:17Speaker 1: you look. I've looked at a bunch of different places.
- 22:19Speaker 1: Gets as high as above thirty, as you mentioned, gets
- 22:21Speaker 1: as low as like five to six. So yeah, that's
- 22:25Speaker 1: why I believe more of the upper end of it,
- 22:29Speaker 1: because he's on such a heater and he's been popular,
- 22:31Speaker 1: but this game isn't gonna get a lot of love,
- 22:34Speaker 1: and he is decently pricey for who he is. But
- 22:37Speaker 1: to your point, like feels a little bit chasy in
- 22:41Speaker 1: game log watching, But it's not like he was bad
- 22:44Speaker 1: before that, Like even prior to the two you know,
- 22:48Speaker 1: fifty balls he just put up. He had thirty seven
- 22:51Speaker 1: the game before that, thirty five, thirty six, Like at
- 22:54Speaker 1: sixty nine hundred, you're fine with that, And he's clearly
- 22:57Speaker 1: shown he's got upside. Yeah, I don't like it at ownership,
- 23:01Speaker 1: but it's gonna be impossible to know prior to lock
- 23:03Speaker 1: what he's gonna be owned at. And I'm not gonna
- 23:06Speaker 1: not play him because I think the ownership is gonna
- 23:08Speaker 1: get too high. I don't think it gets that egregious.
- 23:11Speaker 1: I also don't think he's a must play, but really
- 23:13Speaker 1: good shout out. All in all, he probably is the
- 23:15Speaker 1: best play from this game, just because of how Booker
- 23:17Speaker 1: and Tatum are priced, even though I like both those
- 23:20Speaker 1: guys for the upside and the ownership and tournaments.
- 23:22Speaker 2: Yeah, so you'd pick but if you if you had
- 23:25Speaker 2: to play one son, would it be Booker Jalen Green?
- 23:27Speaker 2: If you play one team, Oh.
- 23:29Speaker 1: Man, that's tough. It's I think I'm gonna say Green's
- 23:33Speaker 1: the better play, but for me it's Booker. It's just
- 23:35Speaker 1: I know that just makes sense, but that's no.
- 23:37Speaker 2: I mean, he's definitely gonna be a lower owned like
- 23:39Speaker 2: by a wide margin is Devin Booker, regardless of what
- 23:42Speaker 2: Jalen Green does come in at. I do like Tatum
- 23:44Speaker 2: though eighty six hundred again played thirty two minutes last game,
- 23:47Speaker 2: eight and a half points spread. If it's eight points
- 23:50Speaker 2: with five minutes left. He's gonna be out there. I
- 23:52Speaker 2: think it's like, like I said, it's gonna get back
- 23:54Speaker 2: to kind of the old Celtics and Tatum running the
- 23:57Speaker 2: show a little more so. I think he just.
- 23:59Speaker 1: Play a good ball now though, too.
- 24:01Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean all year. I mean they I think
- 24:04Speaker 2: probably overachieved the most out of anybody in the NBA
- 24:07Speaker 2: this year. They've yeah, they got it. They got it
- 24:10Speaker 2: going and over in over in Phoenix for sure. Dylan Brooks,
- 24:14Speaker 2: I mean, that's they got to get him back. He
- 24:16Speaker 2: was huge for that team. Grayson Allen made such a
- 24:18Speaker 2: big step. I really like what what Phoenix has going on.
- 24:21Speaker 1: Fun team to root for, a lot of guys that
- 24:23Speaker 1: play hard and completely one complete, one eighty from how
- 24:27Speaker 1: they were last year.
- 24:28Speaker 2: Yeah, what's up? Uh, Keith? And yeah, you want to
- 24:32Speaker 2: say anything about your Calves?
- 24:34Speaker 1: Hey man, you know, not playing the basket ball right now.
- 24:36Speaker 1: Tough loss against Dallas yesterday, but March in the NBA,
- 24:40Speaker 1: it's tough to tough to take too, you know, count
- 24:44Speaker 1: it for too much. That said, like, I think Boston
- 24:46Speaker 1: is the clear best team in the East with Tatum healthy.
- 24:49Speaker 1: I think the Calves are at least to me, like
- 24:51Speaker 1: the second team. I don't I'm not buying what Detroit
- 24:54Speaker 1: is selling this year in the playoffs, and the Knicks
- 24:56Speaker 1: are just too inconsistent. So I think it's Boston in
- 24:59Speaker 1: the CA and I don't think the Calves are Like,
- 25:02Speaker 1: I don't think it's impossible for the Calves to beat Boston,
- 25:05Speaker 1: but I have Boston as the favorite.
- 25:07Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's clearly, uh, clearly Boston. And we
- 25:11Speaker 2: were talking. I was talking a little bit with Rio.
- 25:13Speaker 2: If the Hornets get in, people aren't gonna want to
- 25:15Speaker 2: see these Hornets.
- 25:17Speaker 1: I agree, but there's still not that legit threat to
- 25:20Speaker 1: me in the East in my opinion, like to come out.
- 25:22Speaker 2: I mean maybe I mean to come out to get
- 25:25Speaker 2: to the championship or to win a Round one or
- 25:28Speaker 2: something like they if you're not a believer in the Pistons,
- 25:31Speaker 2: they get the Pistons. If they got the Knicks, like I,
- 25:34Speaker 2: the team can fight.
- 25:35Speaker 1: It goes back to how talented they are. I feel like, man,
- 25:38Speaker 1: how the tables have turned here, because I'll never forget
- 25:40Speaker 1: being on that show. If you one of the first shows,
- 25:42Speaker 1: maybe the first show we did, And I was talking
- 25:44Speaker 1: about how I like Charlotte in Okay, see that one
- 25:46Speaker 1: night and they ended up just rolling, Like the guys
- 25:48Speaker 1: weren't even good for dfs because they won too hard.
- 25:51Speaker 1: Since then, I feel like they've been on the big
- 25:53Speaker 1: up and up, and it all started with me with
- 25:56Speaker 1: they're hella talented, like they got a lot of dudes
- 25:58Speaker 1: that can hoop.
- 26:00Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, Hornets are too young. They definitely are young,
- 26:02Speaker 2: but like as young as Cohn is. The dude plays
- 26:04Speaker 2: like a vet, like LaMelo is the one piece. His
- 26:07Speaker 2: highs are so high as lows are so low, and
- 26:09Speaker 2: you can't really have too many lows in postseason. But
- 26:12Speaker 2: Brandon Miller Bridges, I mean, they're just steady Diabata calcula.
- 26:16Speaker 2: They're steady at the end of the day. But yeah,
- 26:18Speaker 2: I mean to have them coming out the East is
- 26:20Speaker 2: definitely a little a little ambitious, but there's no doubt
- 26:23Speaker 2: that the East is kind of weak in my opinion.
- 26:25Speaker 1: I agree. Part of me feels like in the NBA
- 26:28Speaker 1: most of the time you have to been there and
- 26:31Speaker 1: done that and takeing some l's in the playoffs before
- 26:33Speaker 1: you really move on. But the other side of that
- 26:36Speaker 1: is I think the East is also really weak, and
- 26:38Speaker 1: I don't think the Cavs, the Celtics, the Knicks, any
- 26:40Speaker 1: of these teams are like that much better than the Hornets. Honestly,
- 26:43Speaker 1: I don't even think that those teams are even that
- 26:45Speaker 1: much more talented than the Hornets. They're just more mature
- 26:47Speaker 1: and have been there before.
- 26:49Speaker 2: I think the odds would be closer than people think
- 26:51Speaker 2: for sure, in the series markets and stuff.
- 26:53Speaker 1: So consider that how well they're starting lineup has played,
- 26:55Speaker 1: and all that.
- 26:56Speaker 2: Stuff is out there, you know exactly, Yeah, I'm excited,
- 26:59Speaker 2: there's no doubt about for the NBA playoffs is also
- 27:02Speaker 2: very very elite, so great times and no NFL is
- 27:06Speaker 2: always very sad, nothing like NFL Sundays. But we're coming
- 27:10Speaker 2: into a really really good stretch with marsh Madness, with

- 28:36Speaker 2: right now, Clippers, any I don't know Clippers in the West.
- 28:40Speaker 2: Any thoughts there, Then we'll get.
- 28:41Speaker 1: Back to I mean, I love Kawhi. I mean he's
- 28:45Speaker 1: a dog when he's healthy. There are that many players
- 28:48Speaker 1: better than him, but they don't got the horses to
- 28:49Speaker 1: win out West.
- 28:50Speaker 2: No, I agree, Man, it's gonna be it's hard not
- 28:54Speaker 2: to see. Okay, see in the Spurs and that's gonna
- 28:56Speaker 2: be one heck of a series.
- 28:57Speaker 1: If we do get that, I still think then real
- 29:00Speaker 1: live personally, but we'll see. The and San Antonio are
- 29:04Speaker 1: for sure the two best teams right now. I think
- 29:06Speaker 1: I'll say about san Antonio and I know someone mentioned
- 29:08Speaker 1: it in the chat, like look at what they're doing.
- 29:11Speaker 1: I'm kind of on the Fred lamb Leak train here.
- 29:13Speaker 1: I don't know if you heard him recently, but he
- 29:15Speaker 1: was talking about let's not crown them too fast, like
- 29:18Speaker 1: they're doing a lot in the regular season, but they
- 29:20Speaker 1: haven't done anything in the playoffs yet. And you're talking Spurs.
- 29:23Speaker 1: I'm talking to Spurs. Yeah. He was really talking out
- 29:25Speaker 1: on the Spurs and saying like how I mean, he's
- 29:27Speaker 1: obviously on the Rockets, but still, like you don't hear
- 29:30Speaker 1: players talk about other teams like that, and he was
- 29:32Speaker 1: being very candid, like hold your horses, like, obviously they
- 29:35Speaker 1: have talent, but they haven't done anything in the playoffs yet.
- 29:37Speaker 1: And I'm kind of on his side there fair enough.
- 29:40Speaker 2: I'm taking the other approach. I think that I got
- 29:42Speaker 2: Spurs winning it at all personally when you got a
- 29:44Speaker 2: guy who's like Wemby that's just out of the world,
- 29:46Speaker 2: and I didn't play hard. They're deep, like having Harper
- 29:49Speaker 2: is a guarden with the castle and fox stuff. It
- 29:52Speaker 2: seems like they have the pieces, and I mean, teams
- 29:55Speaker 2: just can't drive in the paint, like they're so scared
- 29:57Speaker 2: to attack Wemby. You gotta beat them shooting, and in
- 30:00Speaker 2: the seven game series it gets tougher. But yeah, I'm
- 30:03Speaker 2: I'm super super pumped for it, no doubt. What's up Rio.
- 30:06Speaker 2: Great to see uh Celtics spanking everyone in the playoffs
- 30:08Speaker 2: with Tatum back. Yeah, the odds do suggest that. All right,
- 30:12Speaker 2: we'll keep it rolling though. Back on track for this
- 30:14Speaker 2: slate to the Portland Trailblazers and the Brooklyn Nets then
- 30:18Speaker 2: that point favorite till the Trailblazers two twenty one and
- 30:20Speaker 2: a half total in this one, So the biggest spread
- 30:22Speaker 2: on the Portland side, Robert Williams is doubtful and Big
- 30:26Speaker 2: Creechy is doubtful. On the Brooklyn side. No MPJ, no Clowney,
- 30:31Speaker 2: no Terrence Man. I mean Danny Wolf has always as
- 30:36Speaker 2: of late gotten some ownership. He's definitely gonna get some
- 30:38Speaker 2: here as well. Clinging Danny Abdiya two spends on this
- 30:43Speaker 2: slate slash mid tier plays again, They're gonna be played.
- 30:46Speaker 2: People aren't really gonna go, They're gonna go Josh Giddy
- 30:48Speaker 2: and then pretty much anyone under Josh Giddy that fits
- 30:51Speaker 2: Obdya is one of them. Clinging's one of them. That's
- 30:53Speaker 2: kind of why Paulo Jalen Johnson will be a lot
- 30:56Speaker 2: lower owned. I'm not necessarily sure how much value if
- 31:00Speaker 2: you go to Valley it seems like you got to
- 31:01Speaker 2: go to the Nets side. And I don't love playing
- 31:03Speaker 2: these nets, especially as ten in that point underdogs. But
- 31:06Speaker 2: do you have any any take here?
- 31:08Speaker 1: My take is pretty similar to yours in that Portland
- 31:11Speaker 1: obviously is gonna look better because it's the Nets, so
- 31:13Speaker 1: they're never going to look that appealing. From the Portland side,
- 31:17Speaker 1: I think Klingon looks like one of the best plays
- 31:19Speaker 1: on the slate pretty clearly. Ownership is there, but he
- 31:23Speaker 1: should smash in this spot against his Brooklyn front court. No,
- 31:26Speaker 1: Robert Williams doesn't hurt his cause here likely to be
- 31:29Speaker 1: a core play for me. I like him a lot here.
- 31:31Speaker 1: I've played him a ton, so no reason not to
- 31:33Speaker 1: get on him here. Denny, I'm cool with Denny eighty
- 31:37Speaker 1: eight hundredth of the fair tag for him, Like, I'm not
- 31:40Speaker 1: sure he's gonna fit my specific build tonight, but if
- 31:43Speaker 1: I can get to him, I got no problems rostering him.
- 31:46Speaker 1: Other than that, I think it's, you know, guys that
- 31:49Speaker 1: are in a good spot more than like these guys
- 31:51Speaker 1: stand out from a pricing perspective. Klingon is the only
- 31:54Speaker 1: guy for me on Portland that is like close to
- 31:58Speaker 1: or a lock, if you want to call him that.
- 32:00Speaker 1: From the Brooklyn side, man, I'm struggling to get much here,
- 32:04Speaker 1: Like can we take shots on like Palachai Smith at
- 32:08Speaker 1: three K who they just signed. I don't know. I
- 32:11Speaker 1: feel like with guys like that, he could certainly just
- 32:14Speaker 1: destroy your lineup and play five minutes. But I also
- 32:18Speaker 1: feel like sometimes it's really pertinent to be a game
- 32:21Speaker 1: early on guys like this, because what if he plays
- 32:23Speaker 1: twenty eight minutes here and no one's expecting it. It's
- 32:25Speaker 1: just really hard for projection systems to project right now.
- 32:29Speaker 1: So he fits into that mold three K if you
- 32:31Speaker 1: are flipping the build a little bit, I think he's
- 32:33Speaker 1: someone you want to look at, even though there's certainly
- 32:36Speaker 1: a lot of unknown there after that it's wolf. He
- 32:40Speaker 1: seems like the steady cog in the machine type. Not
- 32:43Speaker 1: overly excited about him here at six K, but ownership
- 32:48Speaker 1: he's getting some of it. I think he's a fine
- 32:50Speaker 1: play again, I'm not excited about it, but solid cog
- 32:53Speaker 1: of the machine type.
- 32:54Speaker 2: What about Josha Mine not? I like how he has
- 32:58Speaker 2: power forward eligibility twenty one twenty four minutes not the best,
- 33:02Speaker 2: but I mean the dude' shooting like four for twelve
- 33:05Speaker 2: last game, twenty six percent usage, six for nine in
- 33:08Speaker 2: the game prior twenty five percent usage. At least when
- 33:11Speaker 2: he's on the court, he's doing something, he's active. He
- 33:14Speaker 2: has a possibility to have a big game. Shots have
- 33:18Speaker 2: to fall, but I think forty three hundred not getting
- 33:21Speaker 2: too much ownership. Plug him in that power forward I
- 33:23Speaker 2: think you could do worse. What are your thoughts on him?
- 33:25Speaker 1: Yeah, so he falls right in that bucket of me
- 33:27Speaker 1: of guys I was talking about earlier that are between
- 33:29Speaker 1: four and five K that aren't getting a lot of
- 33:31Speaker 1: love that I would be find pivoting to. So there's
- 33:33Speaker 1: gonna be guys that project a little bit better that
- 33:35Speaker 1: are around his price point. But he projects reasonably well
- 33:38Speaker 1: and ownership isn't going to be there, So I like the.
- 33:40Speaker 2: Shout yeah, I mean again, Malchi Smith min price three k.
- 33:44Speaker 2: The thing is even at three k, Like if he
- 33:46Speaker 2: gets fifteen, which is his projection, or sixteen if you
- 33:49Speaker 2: told me that, like, I wouldn't play him. I think
- 33:51Speaker 2: there's enough four K, five K, strong, enough options in
- 33:54Speaker 2: a strong mid tier where probably hoping nineteen twenty something
- 33:58Speaker 2: like that. If you're playing Jalen John's, then maybe you're
- 34:00Speaker 2: playing Smith. It's a lot easier to fit it that way.
- 34:03Speaker 2: You can always do worse than a stone cold punt.
- 34:06Speaker 2: But I think I like mine, not more. And Danny Wolf,
- 34:10Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, he's fine, but his price slowly but
- 34:12Speaker 2: surely just keeps creeping up at so it's like thirty
- 34:15Speaker 2: piece if he does get that at five to nine
- 34:17Speaker 2: you definitely take it. It might not be needed though
- 34:20Speaker 2: at the end of the day, Portland side I clinging
- 34:23Speaker 2: and opdy, I want to go to Drew. He definitely
- 34:26Speaker 2: has his big games, but talk about like high high ceiling,
- 34:29Speaker 2: but a low floor, like he's someone that absolutely can
- 34:31Speaker 2: bury you at seventy four hundred and give you no
- 34:35Speaker 2: chance to win and little chance to cash. It feels like.
- 34:37Speaker 1: It's just tough because he's priced still for like Denny
- 34:39Speaker 1: to be out and Denny's back in. He's just losing
- 34:41Speaker 1: a lot. And I will say about this game, big
- 34:44Speaker 1: block concerned for me here. Portland obviously still trying to win.
- 34:48Speaker 1: Lost a bad game for them last night in Philly
- 34:50Speaker 1: against like the really shorthanded Sixers. I expect them to
- 34:54Speaker 1: put their feet on the gas here, so a little
- 34:57Speaker 1: bit hasn't to spend up on too much Portland. And
- 35:00Speaker 1: that is why like someone like Alekai Smith, and I'm
- 35:02Speaker 1: with you, like if you told me he was getting
- 35:04Speaker 1: sixteen Fantasy points here, I'm not playing him, but I
- 35:07Speaker 1: think there are outcomes here where he plays like close
- 35:11Speaker 1: to damn near thirty minutes and scores twenty five Fantasy points.
- 35:14Speaker 1: And in those as I want him, you.
- 35:16Speaker 2: Know, absolutely one more thing. I was, Oh yeah, Like,
- 35:21Speaker 2: I'll be a higher own than Jason Tatum. Like, I
- 35:24Speaker 2: think that's a clear pivot you can make in tournaments
- 35:27Speaker 2: and go Tatum there, You're more two points more are
- 35:30Speaker 2: Portland being favorites like you're expecting them. You're worried about bloouts.
- 35:34Speaker 2: If he loses his last rotation, it's gonna be pretty
- 35:37Speaker 2: tough for him to to get there. More than likely
- 35:40Speaker 2: a eighty eight hundred. I always love playing Denny, Like,
- 35:43Speaker 2: if I knew this game would stay relatively close, he
- 35:45Speaker 2: could fill it up in a lot of different areas.
- 35:47Speaker 2: But I think at ownership I prefer Tatum in a
- 35:50Speaker 2: similar range at the same positions today.
- 35:53Speaker 1: I love that call.
- 35:55Speaker 2: Cool. Two games left five or eight pm Eastern Rolands
- 36:00Speaker 2: Pelicans and the Dallas Mavericks eight and a half point
- 36:03Speaker 2: favorites of the Pelicans, the second highest total on the slate.
- 36:06Speaker 2: It's this game in the next game two forty and
- 36:08Speaker 2: a half. This game next game is two forty three
- 36:10Speaker 2: and a half too. Of the better games for DFS
- 36:12Speaker 2: and today no or Daniel Gafford and Klay Thompson are
- 36:16Speaker 2: both doubtful Caleb Martin is questionable. On the Pelicans side,
- 36:20Speaker 2: Dejontay Murray is questionable with an illness. Obviously that's important.
- 36:25Speaker 2: And I'm not sure we're gonna get that news before
- 36:27Speaker 2: lock like ideally we would, but it's one hour after
- 36:32Speaker 2: you always typically at least I expect thirty minutes prior
- 36:35Speaker 2: is when you'd get it. And there's some plays on
- 36:37Speaker 2: the Golden State side. So man, if we don't get
- 36:41Speaker 2: the news, I mean you probably will have. Like I said,
- 36:44Speaker 2: this game and the Memphis Chicago games probably like the
- 36:47Speaker 2: two best games on the slate, So you're probably gonna
- 36:49Speaker 2: have enough flexibility in wiggle room, like if there's no
- 36:52Speaker 2: Dejonte Trey Murphy zion big bomb. But then like fears
- 36:56Speaker 2: also like it does so much on this slate, And
- 36:59Speaker 2: if de Jontay plays, he's a solid play himself. And
- 37:02Speaker 2: then the other side for Dallas, Yeah, Gafford doubtful, and
- 37:08Speaker 2: Gefford and Clay doubtful. I mean, there's definitely killed Martin two.
- 37:12Speaker 2: He plays a rotation here and there. So this is
- 37:15Speaker 2: the game of the night in my opinion, if having
- 37:17Speaker 2: to choose this or the the Bulls game, which is
- 37:20Speaker 2: also good, but man, I want pieces to this. I
- 37:22Speaker 2: want pieces of the Lake game, So that means more
- 37:24Speaker 2: than likely I will have a lot of wiggle room
- 37:26Speaker 2: for Dejonte being in or Dejonte being out. Yet break
- 37:30Speaker 2: that down if you have any lean on the Q
- 37:32Speaker 2: tag and then this one, I kind.
- 37:34Speaker 1: Of expect him to play, just because it was an
- 37:35Speaker 1: illness that came up last night, so more precautionary than
- 37:38Speaker 1: anything that said. Like, man, there's a lot of sickness
- 37:41Speaker 1: going around, so I don't know how bad, you know
- 37:43Speaker 1: what I mean, Like, so, I don't know. I expect
- 37:45Speaker 1: him to play. But again that's just a gut call,
- 37:48Speaker 1: nothing more than that. And I do think that you
- 37:50Speaker 1: hit on the three guys that would benefit most if
- 37:53Speaker 1: he's out. Obviously Trey Murphy and Zion will take up
- 37:55Speaker 1: a bunch of usage. Although I love especially Zion him.
- 38:00Speaker 1: I think Murray just plays really well with Zion, but
- 38:03Speaker 1: obviously you like Zion more. With him off the court,
- 38:05Speaker 1: Fears would be the guy that would automatically leap up
- 38:08Speaker 1: into becoming one of the best value players on the
- 38:10Speaker 1: slate forty four hundred. Maybe you get a little bit
- 38:14Speaker 1: of an ownership discount if we get the news late.
- 38:17Speaker 1: But to your point, I think we're gonna have a
- 38:19Speaker 1: lot of pieces just all over here from this game
- 38:21Speaker 1: and from the last game. So shouldn't be really too
- 38:24Speaker 1: hard to manipulate your roster in such a way where
- 38:28Speaker 1: like you can kind of get to the guys you
- 38:29Speaker 1: want after the Murray news, even if that means not
- 38:32Speaker 1: playing a bunch from the first game. I'm totally cool
- 38:34Speaker 1: with that. From the Oh go.
- 38:37Speaker 2: Ahead, Yeah no no, I said, what's your thoughts on Dallas?
- 38:41Speaker 1: Two guys look three guys look good on Dallas. Two
- 38:44Speaker 1: guys look really hard to get away from? The guys
- 38:46Speaker 1: that look like really hard to get away from? Are
- 38:48Speaker 1: gonna be Brandon Williams. That never feels good to say.
- 38:52Speaker 1: I know Rio is never a fan of him at Chalk,
- 38:55Speaker 1: but he's just in a really good spot here and
- 38:59Speaker 1: he's got a cheap tag with guys out. So Williams
- 39:01Speaker 1: in play for me and then Badley forty five hundred.
- 39:05Speaker 1: We kind of know the story with him. We've read
- 39:07Speaker 1: his book before too many times. He's a guy I
- 39:09Speaker 1: like to play in softer matchups, in bad matchups, even
- 39:13Speaker 1: when he's starting, and it looks like he's a really
- 39:15Speaker 1: good points per dour play. I'm much more hesitant in
- 39:17Speaker 1: a spot like this. I find it hard to get
- 39:21Speaker 1: away from him, just because he cooks and spot like
- 39:23Speaker 1: spots like this. He's very talented offensively. I like him
- 39:27Speaker 1: more than like. That's why I don't believe Wendell Carter's
- 39:30Speaker 1: ownership because between back Hanging and Jalen Smith, like those
- 39:33Speaker 1: guys are gonna eat so much ownership, you know.
- 39:36Speaker 2: Yeah, I definitely don't believe Carter's ownership for that exact reason.
- 39:39Speaker 2: Like you're saying that, you can also see right now,
- 39:42Speaker 2: like it's not updated. Let's see if so. Yeah, Sabersim
- 39:47Speaker 2: doesn't have Bagley updated there we have beg at nineteen percent.
- 39:51Speaker 2: This will still get updated. This is definitely lights again light.
- 39:54Speaker 2: Brandon Williams, what's your thoughts on Cooper Flagg we're talking
- 39:57Speaker 2: ob deal, We're talking Tatum. He finds Sandwich right in
- 40:01Speaker 2: that same range just point guard eligible now man, he
- 40:05Speaker 2: had the small forward eligibility. But yeah, what are your
- 40:09Speaker 2: thoughts there? Like, it's it's a very nice total. Like
- 40:12Speaker 2: if this game does say competitive, a lot of it
- 40:14Speaker 2: probably has to do with some Cooper flags. So is
- 40:17Speaker 2: that a pivot you can make in the upper tier.
- 40:19Speaker 1: Definitely. I think he's a pivot that's kind of like
- 40:21Speaker 1: the Devin Booker pivot, but probably looks even a little
- 40:23Speaker 1: bit better on paper just because of the spot. You
- 40:26Speaker 1: don't love him coming off of back to back, but
- 40:29Speaker 1: he's young. If he's healthy, which she is, that's why
- 40:31Speaker 1: he's in Like, I got no issues with it. So
- 40:34Speaker 1: as a spend up if he can train an option,
- 40:36Speaker 1: we know he's got big, big upside, so I can
- 40:39Speaker 1: get on board of it. If I'm playing one lineup tonight,
- 40:42Speaker 1: I don't know if I get there, because you can
- 40:43Speaker 1: only get to so many guys, but certainly if I'm
- 40:45Speaker 1: one fiftying, I would probably like to be a little
- 40:48Speaker 1: bit over the field, at least with the field. There
- 40:51Speaker 1: two things someone asking about Ryan Nemhard. I think that
- 40:55Speaker 1: he is definitely in play here as a value option,
- 40:57Speaker 1: you know, especially if you aren't playing like a brand
- 40:59Speaker 1: new Williams. I think he makes a lot of sense
- 41:02Speaker 1: as a cheaper pivot. Thirty four hundred gonna play somewhere
- 41:05Speaker 1: between twenty and twenty three minutes probably, so at that
- 41:09Speaker 1: price point, could certainly get there. And I see someone
- 41:13Speaker 1: said I don't like that Marvin Bagley didn't get the
- 41:15Speaker 1: start last time Gafford was out. Who did they start
- 41:18Speaker 1: that day? It must have been Si se so Si
- 41:21Speaker 1: say himself. I know Rio's boy. He loves say if
- 41:24Speaker 1: he's starting, even if he's not starting, I think he's
- 41:27Speaker 1: in play at the flatman. I don't know if it's
- 41:29Speaker 1: the type of slate where we're like jamming him, but
- 41:32Speaker 1: IM play for sure.
- 41:33Speaker 2: What about Nausea or PJ. I mean, I like those
- 41:37Speaker 2: price tags that I'm seeing they had good games against
- 41:40Speaker 2: your calvs. I prefer Nausea of choosing. I like the
- 41:43Speaker 2: guard Ford eligibility. I think he has a little more
- 41:46Speaker 2: ways to get there. If you're playing a lot of
- 41:49Speaker 2: this game, like if you're playing Dejonte or Zion or
- 41:52Speaker 2: Trey or two of those guys and you're not playing
- 41:55Speaker 2: Cooper Flay because they're a little more expensive. As a runback,
- 41:57Speaker 2: I think Nausee can fit some builds. Do you have
- 42:00Speaker 2: thoughts on NASE or PJ.
- 42:02Speaker 1: It's tough because so Washington starting at center. Rio says,
- 42:05Speaker 1: so that makes sense, So it gives me a lot
- 42:07Speaker 1: of pause on you know, going to the other guys.
- 42:09Speaker 1: Even though badly. He's gonna get run and he's still cheap.
- 42:11Speaker 1: Makes PJ. Washington look good starting at center. We always
- 42:15Speaker 1: like that. I'm hesitant with these Dallas guys not gonna
- 42:18Speaker 1: lie coming off like blowing their wide supremely yesterday against Cleveland,
- 42:23Speaker 1: like winning that game in Cleveland, all these guys bald.
- 42:27Speaker 1: I feel like it's a little bit chasy. But the
- 42:29Speaker 1: other side of that is, like to your point, if
- 42:32Speaker 1: this game is competitive, I don't see any reason why,
- 42:35Speaker 1: like Dallas can't hang in here between Flag, PJ, Nase,
- 42:40Speaker 1: you got clear runbacks. On the other side, I could
- 42:42Speaker 1: see getting going harder on this game than the last game,
- 42:45Speaker 1: which I think will be more popular.
- 42:48Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean this game's big total. This game is
- 42:50Speaker 2: playing small like PJ at the five, Zion at the five.
- 42:54Speaker 2: On the other side, Nause Flag like these guys got
- 42:57Speaker 2: a rebound. Yeah, I think they'll one of Nase GPJ
- 43:04Speaker 2: and Flag's pretty interesting. Like you said, Bagley's definitely going
- 43:07Speaker 2: to be owned and Brandon Williams is definitely going to
- 43:09Speaker 2: get some ownership. And I'm fine there, but yeah, I
- 43:11Speaker 2: have because I'm definitely playing some of the Pelicans, like
- 43:14Speaker 2: whether Dejontas in or out almost I don't know. I'd
- 43:19Speaker 2: kind of hesitant always to say, like min one on
- 43:21Speaker 2: a team, but with Trey Murphy Zion Dejonte, feels hard
- 43:26Speaker 2: to see one of them not getting that. I think
- 43:28Speaker 2: Sadik Bay is also fine at sixty five hundred and
- 43:31Speaker 2: then it's a Jonte's out. I mean probably mind two
- 43:33Speaker 2: at least applied for one hundred and twenty three points,
- 43:36Speaker 2: pretty much tied for the highest on the slates. And yeah,
- 43:39Speaker 2: I think this is the game that you definitely want
- 43:40Speaker 2: a lot of exposure to in DFS, and the Dejonta
- 43:43Speaker 2: news is very popular or it's very important, it's very popular.
- 43:50Speaker 2: This game will be popular, and this next game, the
- 43:52Speaker 2: last game of will be popular as well. At a
- 43:54Speaker 2: PM Eastern Chicago Bulls and the Memphis Grizzlies seven that
- 43:58Speaker 2: point favorites are the Bulls biggest total late at two
- 44:00Speaker 2: forty three and a half. On the Memphis side, Ty
- 44:03Speaker 2: Jerome and Gig Jackson are doubtful and Walter Clayton is questionable.
- 44:10Speaker 2: On the bull side, Isaacaccorro is out, Colin Sexton is questionable.
- 44:16Speaker 2: I don't necessarily know how much of that like sexon
- 44:18Speaker 2: news matters, but at the end of the day, like
- 44:20Speaker 2: people are gonna play Josh Giddy, this thirty five percent,
- 44:23Speaker 2: I think might be forty five percent when it's all
- 44:25Speaker 2: said and done. Jalen Smith another center play that we've
- 44:28Speaker 2: been talking about. I always like playing Jalen Smith as
- 44:31Speaker 2: you see a very good point per minute guy. And
- 44:33Speaker 2: then I think the biggest like the sex and stuff,
- 44:35Speaker 2: Trey Jones. Maybe it affects the most. He's a solid
- 44:38Speaker 2: play anyway, but get a little minutes bump, like, I
- 44:42Speaker 2: don't think it puts I'm not sure it puts Dillingham
- 44:44Speaker 2: enough in play, even though he gets some more minutes,
- 44:47Speaker 2: more of the backup run all of that, But on
- 44:50Speaker 2: this late we already have some four K value. I'm
- 44:53Speaker 2: not sure it would be enough. Do you have takes
- 44:55Speaker 2: On Sexton if he is out? Who that benefits the most?
- 44:58Speaker 2: And then yeah, I mean Chicago looks pretty solid and
- 45:01Speaker 2: Javon Small another good point guard on this late this
- 45:04Speaker 2: is a game you need to play some of.
- 45:06Speaker 1: Yeah, so I think it is Trey Jones is the
- 45:08Speaker 1: main guy that would benefit with sex and being out,
- 45:10Speaker 1: And to your point, I think he's a good play
- 45:11Speaker 1: either way. So I think he's a guy you can
- 45:13Speaker 1: plug in with confidence, and then if Sexton's out, he
- 45:15Speaker 1: only looks better, not like a must player or anything,
- 45:17Speaker 1: but looks pretty good. I'm gonna raise the stakes on
- 45:20Speaker 1: your Giddy call. I thought I was gonna say, I'm
- 45:22Speaker 1: gonna get one step ahead of you. I'm gonna take
- 45:24Speaker 1: like five steps ahead of you. I think he's gonna
- 45:25Speaker 1: be like sixty five to seventy percent of the night
- 45:28Speaker 1: in smaller field, higher dollar stuff. What about the eighteen
- 45:31Speaker 1: dollars probably forty somewhere around there, so you're more online there,
- 45:36Speaker 1: like thirty five to forty five somewhere around there.
- 45:39Speaker 2: He just fifty two is what it has for high stakes,
- 45:42Speaker 2: and I agree, I think that's that's light as well.
- 45:44Speaker 2: And we're talking like the five to fifty five.
- 45:46Speaker 1: I agree. He just projects so well at this tag
- 45:49Speaker 1: and he's been really good, playing like forty minutes a game,
- 45:52Speaker 1: sixty plus fantasy points in four straight. Anytime you're dealing
- 45:56Speaker 1: with ownership like this, like it, if you played this
- 46:00Speaker 1: slate one hundred times, how many times does Booker outscore
- 46:03Speaker 1: Giddy more than the ownership would imply? But Giddy still
- 46:07Speaker 1: is the better play.
- 46:08Speaker 2: So yeah, this is the one.
- 46:09Speaker 1: I struggle with, Like, I don't think Giddy ever deserves
- 46:12Speaker 1: to be, you know, seventy percent owned, But there's a
- 46:15Speaker 1: reason he's going to be that highly owned because he
- 46:17Speaker 1: projects so well and he's just not priced where he
- 46:19Speaker 1: should be. So I know, we got asked this like
- 46:22Speaker 1: on Twitter before the show starts. I don't have a
- 46:24Speaker 1: great answer of whether you like have to play him
- 46:27Speaker 1: in single entry because again, to each their own there,
- 46:30Speaker 1: like there is merit and fading high owned like supremely
- 46:33Speaker 1: high owned guys like this, there's also merit in just
- 46:36Speaker 1: playing them and getting different elsewhere, So it's kind of
- 46:38Speaker 1: different strokes for different folks kind of thing. Other than Giddy,
- 46:42Speaker 1: Jalen Smith looks really really good at fifty two hundred,
- 46:46Speaker 1: He's gonna be the other center, probably the most popular
- 46:48Speaker 1: center on the slate with his price. Hard to get
- 46:51Speaker 1: away from him. Leonard Miller, he would also look better
- 46:53Speaker 1: if sectans out and looks good as is forty three hundred.
- 46:58Speaker 1: I could definitely see playing some Leonard Miller or Trey Jones.
- 47:01Speaker 1: We mentioned Matas is a little bit too rich for
- 47:05Speaker 1: my blood. Seventy seven hundred is expensive, but I feel
- 47:09Speaker 1: like there's merit and going to him, kind of like
- 47:10Speaker 1: we talked about with Cooper Flag just getting the best
- 47:13Speaker 1: piece of the team when well, I guess the second
- 47:15Speaker 1: best with Giddy when all the other pieces are getting
- 47:18Speaker 1: more ownership. I could dig that, but doesn't really stand
- 47:21Speaker 1: out from a points per dollar perspective. From the Memphis side,
- 47:25Speaker 1: a little bit tougher to decipher, just because it's Memphis.
- 47:28Speaker 1: We never know exactly what they're gonna do. But Cedric
- 47:31Speaker 1: Coward looks pretty good, Javon Small looks pretty good. Memphis
- 47:36Speaker 1: kind of is who they are, Like Walter Clayton. I'm
- 47:39Speaker 1: never really a fan of Jalen Wells, but Memphis has
- 47:42Speaker 1: filler pieces like all over. They've introduced new guys though
- 47:45Speaker 1: into the mix, like the John Guireau. So it's really
- 47:48Speaker 1: hard to break Memphis down on a game to game
- 47:51Speaker 1: basis because I don't even think their coach knows what
- 47:53Speaker 1: they're gonna do.
- 47:54Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean they're back to running ten plus bodies
- 47:57Speaker 2: instead of only having eight. That suits up that we're
- 48:00Speaker 2: in Memphis on like they're playing a full rotation now.
- 48:02Speaker 2: Walter Clayton News I think is a little interesting. Uh,
- 48:06Speaker 2: Like you said Cower would even get would get more
- 48:08Speaker 2: of a bump. I think Chavon Small would be pretty
- 48:10Speaker 2: strong at six k. Maybe a little cam Spencer. I'm
- 48:15Speaker 2: not necessarily sure they're If he's in, it's a lot
- 48:17Speaker 2: harder to get to Memphis for sure, But look at
- 48:19Speaker 2: it like the price tags. I mean small six k
- 48:22Speaker 2: and after that five point four k is prosper and
- 48:27Speaker 2: then everyone else is five to one or below. So
- 48:30Speaker 2: I don't hate if you want to get a little
- 48:32Speaker 2: difference you're talking about like that four k five K
- 48:35Speaker 2: range when it's going to concentrate around guys like Porzingis,
- 48:38Speaker 2: there's certain people like this is a spot. Memphis has
- 48:40Speaker 2: plenty of guys that you can't go to pivot and
- 48:43Speaker 2: you're just backloading more for if Dejonte's out, then there's fears.
- 48:48Speaker 2: Then you can upgrade to Matas or whatever it may be.
- 48:51Speaker 2: So I I want a lot of exposure to these
- 48:53Speaker 2: last two games, not only because of the Deconte news.
- 48:56Speaker 2: It's a two forty and a half and a two
- 48:58Speaker 2: forty three and a half, which is the highest on
- 49:00Speaker 2: the slate.
- 49:00Speaker 1: For sure. I'm totally with you, just like talking this out, Like,
- 49:05Speaker 1: it's not like the Golden State guys are gonna be
- 49:07Speaker 1: crazy owned. But I don't like the Golden State guys
- 49:10Speaker 1: as much as I like the guys from the last
- 49:12Speaker 1: two games. So if that means not playing Porzingis and
- 49:14Speaker 1: or a Gary Payton, I'm fine with it. Like, I
- 49:16Speaker 1: know they're in a really good spot, but I'm never
- 49:18Speaker 1: afraid to fade Porzingis or Gary Payton chalk, I'll tell
- 49:22Speaker 1: you that much.
- 49:23Speaker 2: Yeah, and again LJ Cryer post like that if they
- 49:26Speaker 2: were out, it would boost their projection, but it would
- 49:29Speaker 2: also boost their ownership as well. Man, Giddy's been so
- 49:32Speaker 2: good playing all the minutes in the world. If you're
- 49:34Speaker 2: fading Giddy, do you is there more merit to play
- 49:37Speaker 2: a Trade Jones or a Matas for you? Yeah?
- 49:40Speaker 1: I think so, But I think it's mostly just like
- 49:43Speaker 1: the fade of Giddy for me, is isn't necessarily that
- 49:47Speaker 1: he fails. It's more that like another guy or two
- 49:50Speaker 1: just outscore him and have an outlier game in his
- 49:52Speaker 1: price range. That's kind of how I'm looking at it personally.
- 49:55Speaker 2: Yeah, that makes sense. I mean, he has a lot
- 49:57Speaker 2: of ways he can get there. More shooting night, he
- 49:59Speaker 2: can still get there with a triple double fifteen, twelve
- 50:02Speaker 2: and ten or whatever it may be.
- 50:04Speaker 1: Like, I feel like if you're fading him, you're not
- 50:06Speaker 1: fading him thinking and hoping he gets like twenty fantasy points,
- 50:10Speaker 1: you know what I mean. That's just not gonna happen.
- 50:12Speaker 1: Like you're fading him hoping he gets like forty five
- 50:14Speaker 1: fifty and like you're Devin Booker or your tight or
- 50:17Speaker 1: whoever scores fifty five to sixty. So again, knowing that
- 50:21Speaker 1: those margins are so slim, I think just playing him
- 50:24Speaker 1: makes the most sense.
- 50:25Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree with you there. I think there's enough
- 50:28Speaker 2: pivots on the six game slates. Like you said earlier,
- 50:31Speaker 2: you like the idea of eating Giddy or eating chalk
- 50:33Speaker 2: up top more and then finding pivots in that four
- 50:35Speaker 2: or five K range. Yeah, all of our content, that
- 50:39Speaker 2: is all six games on the slates. Again, if you
- 50:42Speaker 2: go to shipin'nation dot com, all of our NBA contents,
- 50:45Speaker 2: you can find Rio slate plan. You saw him in chat.
- 50:47Speaker 2: He will have a breakdown upper tier, mid tier, in
- 50:49Speaker 2: the lower tier individual players. A lot of great nuggets
- 50:52Speaker 2: in there. Core report from Rio from that from our
- 50:56Speaker 2: man ham As well cash report for myself. Little neck
- 51:00Speaker 2: right here showdown a slate plan always does a phenomenal job.
- 51:03Speaker 2: If you have any questions, you can take him in
- 51:05Speaker 2: the discord as well. PGA is still going on, goes
- 51:08Speaker 2: on pretty much all year. Prizes are massive. MMA is
- 51:12Speaker 2: going on this weekend as well, NASCAR on Sunday. NHL
- 51:15Speaker 2: is still kicking. Next thing you know, MLB will be
- 51:17Speaker 2: back as well. We would love to have you at
- 51:19Speaker 2: the Nation if you haven't gave us a try. This
- 51:21Speaker 2: is what our website looks like. Join the Nation is
- 51:24Speaker 2: where you'd go as low as nine dollars. You can
- 51:26Speaker 2: get in for the day, five days for nineteen dollars.
- 51:28Speaker 2: The best deal get you savors him get your access
- 51:31Speaker 2: to the discord. But if you just want NBA contents,
- 51:34Speaker 2: single sport NBA, you can also do that for as
- 51:37Speaker 2: low as seventeen dollars a month if you do the
- 51:40Speaker 2: annual package. Obviously annual better than monthly since you're here longer. Yeah,
- 51:47Speaker 2: that's pretty much all I got Any thoughts for you,
- 51:50Speaker 2: mat before we get out of here.
- 51:51Speaker 1: No, pretty well, but slate with chalk like there are
- 51:56Speaker 1: guys that are getting a lot of ownership but outside
- 51:58Speaker 1: of Gidea, there's no one that's like crazy highly owned,
- 52:01Speaker 1: so I do think that there are certainly plenty of
- 52:02Speaker 1: ways to get different on the sleep.
- 52:05Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm excited to check out your core. Check out
- 52:08Speaker 2: Real's core. Also DVP rankings something I always like to
- 52:10Speaker 2: do as well. NBA DVP rankings. You can start for
- 52:14Speaker 2: the full year. I would recommend doing the last two weeks.
- 52:17Speaker 2: That is fully automated data. There is no bias, there's
- 52:20Speaker 2: nothing that goes into that besides strict and straight numbers.
- 52:24Speaker 2: So definitely checks that out as well. That's gonna do
- 52:27Speaker 2: it for us. Hit the like, hit the subscribe on
- 52:29Speaker 2: the way out. Appreciate that a ton. We will see
- 52:32Speaker 2: you in the discord for matts, I'm titled be Safe,
- 52:35Speaker 2: good luck.
