Hitting across and watching the video and I know you’ve already given it a thumbs up and you’ve subscribed and you’ve hit the noic ification Bell and you’ve pre- banged on the live TR trade deadline show I know it’s a lot of things but I believe in you guys really
I really do I believe in you and you can follow those um very very gentle suggestions we’re here to talk about uh the NBA we’re here to talk about what went down across the games and the action in the NBA on Wednesday January the 24th so let’s talk about it what
Happened an update on tar next season uh at least another week for him to be out you don’t need to be holding on to t e you can move on from T een and we can reassess it later on this season um another week for DeAnthony
Melton as well don’t need to hold on to him either I love DeAnthony Melton as always though if you’ve got empty spots een can park there Melton can park there but if you need them move on not good enough players to be dealing with zeros 14 weeks into the season 15
Weeks into the season not good enough to do that unless again your team is at the top we got open ey you know how it all works I hope by now I hope you understand it um yakob purle thought there might be a chance he plays on Friday it sounds like
He’s really really close but he won’t be there Friday so your toss the coin stream on jont Porter or Thad young is still there it’s really tough to know what’s going to go on so don’t get excited about it but someone multiple people in the last couple of days hey
Should you should I just be adding P off the wire like absolutely yes what are you doing yes yako purle is a very very clear must roster player if he is sitting on your waiver wire but I don’t know if he is and he probably only
Misses one more game uh would be my guess with this but you know things have gone ay with injuries in the past would not be the first time for that to be the case not going to do waver wire Trends because we did a whole last waver wire
Show earlier today so let’s just bang in and talk about the first game the first game was the inota Timberwolves fresh off the embarrassment of the Hornets loss beating the Wizards 118 107 so they got that job done Goose had 38 points in 34 minutes that’s Anthony Edwards for
The uninitiated he had five assists he shot only 39% but it was great to see 13 to 14 from the line and I’m going to cheer him on because he was on the by low show so I want big performances Rudy goet had 19 and 16 with four blocks
While towns still really good obviously not 62 but 27-6 in his 35 McDaniels that’s actually a pretty good line 13 and5 with two steals he still doesn’t do enough for me to suggest that he’s a must roster player but stability in role is important in fantasy and it is useful
Not again not enough for me to say yeah you got to have him if he’s on the wire you must have Jaden I don’t believe that but that was solid and this this is the sort of game that Alexander Walker nearly us nearly or usually provides he
Started once again with Mike Conley out now he’s got an illness after resting the last game sure no worries um he had 65 and five in 31 minutes so last game he had like 18 points which was clearly unrealistic like he’s at least a 14 team streamer if
Conley is out we got another dud from The Wizard of NOS Naz five3 and two in 21 minutes he did have a triple one which is good he only shot 22% he took nine shots I just don’t see him as an absolute must he’s totally okay if you
Want to roster him the value is going to be up and down but at the moment the Peaks are aren’t that high because nobody ahead of him is injured and that’s really what you’d be holding on to him is waiting for go or towns to
Miss so he can push up and at the moment he gives you back end numbers which is fine for some people but if he’s like your 10th best player and you’re waiting on that like that’s not a great situation on your roster for the Wizards do you want the good or the bad
First let’s talk the good Denny ABIA 38 minutes this man’s minutes are one of the most unpredictable things in the NBA which is wild because he starts every single game he had 24 6 and six he shot 58% he was perfect from the line he’s been great the last little run of
Numbers from M has been awesome but he could also have a stretch of five games in a row 24 minutes roster in for now kma 174 and 8 35 minutes 33 good game from the big fow love it love to see the the block come in there as well and Dan
Gafford if you just look at the numbers they’re totally fine 10 and four one steel two blocks 100% if you dig one level deeper you’ll go oh no 21 minutes Marvin bagley’s coming to Ed’s ass oh no no I should have moved on from Gafford but then you the the Discerning fantasy basketball
Manager you look to the third level the Deep level the legend level and he went oh yeah he actually had he actually found out so I think we’re all right so it’s a lot of the a lot of the it’s like the Vince mcmah I not really it’s
Because it’s like the up down up down and then you might do the opposite thing and you might look at Marvin Bagley and you go oh Mye 26 minutes Marvin Bagley 17 and 15 let’s go but then you realize that g had F out so is that a good game
From Bagley of course it is it’s a really good game 17 and 15 88% it is a it’s a huge baggley though 17 15 Z assist zero blocks he did sneaker Ste stealing there and he just putrified your free throws and that’s what he does this is why he’s not a great category
League player we would need 25 on the nose every night for him to be even considered there and I don’t think we get that but if you’ve got him you just hold him because it’s a data point where he produced really well but Gafford F
Out in 21 minutes and last game it was 30 minutes to 18 and 18 is definitely not enough for a guy with as many holes gigg as Marvin Begley does tus Jones was stunk I run to the bad I should have told you that run to
The bad part of it uh tyus Jones Five Points on 29% with six assists but he wasn’t the worst player because that goes to uh BBL connoisseur the the man with the mustache it’s giv out too many of those rides because Jordan paol is ass I i’ I’ve eaten so much over
This not literally but about how like I thought you know I looked at his numbers last season good usage good scoring good assists good free throws good volume well he’s going to play more minutes he’s going to get more shots it’s going to be a really good opportunity and
Everything has gotten way worse I didn’t even have to think that he was a good player I could just look at those numbers go well he’s going to at least do this and do more but no no no he’s now one of the worst players in the
Entire NBA he stinks and it’s horrible and it’s probably going to haunt me forever to be honest seven points 18% shooting for p three assists no steals no blocks you know what I want to do it just for purification sake I will always say this with PA
Though like who am I actually adding off the Y that does have a higher upside probably nobody but let’s all get around it and do this together get that garbage out of here hey get out of here oh my God he it’s just annoying and
You know he’s going to have a 40 point game in two weeks and you go oh I guess he’s figured out no no he’s just terrible and he sucks and I don’t I don’t I don’t get what did the punch hurt that this much maybe maybe or he’s out here sniffing butth
Holes every night I don’t know but who wouldn’t want to sniff a butthole now and then if you’re living in DC according to Dan Titus big big BBL population over there I’m not talking about the big bash league for those of you who know what I’m talking about
There today’s episode is brought to you by grammar grammar it’s about grammar it’s about spelling it’s about words and writing I wish I could just autocorrect the things that I say sometimes on this show but I I use grammarly a lot in my everyday work I’m using it writing um

Price.com locked on NBA the code is locked on NBA and you get a first deposit match up to $100 price pick is daily fantasy sports made easy all right we are one game in so let us uh let us move into the uh the second
Game of the day it was an absolute barn burner the battle of the as uh we might say because they were two pure teams it was the Charlotte Hornets and it was your detto Pistons the Hornets made a couple of moves ter o was gone so Cody Martin started in his place and
Then big dick Nick returned pushing PJ Washington Jr to the bench that happened the Pistons also made a change Kevin Knox was taken out of the starting lineup and one game bench leg Legend Isaiah Stewart moved into the starting lineup um cool I thought that might mean
That KNX is out of the rotation but I guess not he played and we’ll talk about whatever we can talk about here the Pistons win at 113 106 congratulations to them getting another Victory the Hornets PJ 29 minutes 126 and 5 steel block 43 really good game from PJ I
Don’t trust him at all I don’t like the fact that he went down to 29 minutes in the bench roll and and he to me is just a fringe player big dick Nick is not he’s a must roster 21 out 10 for the big fow 69% shooting he’s available in a lot
Of spots and he should not be and Brandon Miller the sell High opportunity is there still 39 minutes he had 237 and4 with 53 everyone’s tooting their horns all the people that had Brandon Miller ahead of scoot Henderson in their draft rankings are talking about this
And you will see it they are people with big followings there are people talking about it and they will site this stat to you there’s only been two rookies this season who have scored 20 points in four consecutive games Victor wanyama and Brandon Miller remember trading and fantasy is about narrative it’s about
Perception I’m not denying that he had 20 points a game for an no CU he did 2374 is great he played 39 minutes he has been rolling on really high shooting it wasn’t as good here 47 from the field on 6 and 67 from the line but also
Weirdly I think he led the team in shots about halfway through the third quarter and then B barely took another shot for the rest of the game he was also a minus 15 which was a team’s second worst and down the stretch just other players were getting the shot
Attempts I don’t think that Brandon’s going to play 39 a night I don’t think that he’s necessarily going to get those shot attempts every game necessarily nor do I think he’s even going to main that maintain that efficiency so while there’s a ton of hype scoring rules everything you can try and cash
In you don’t have to you can just roll with it and if he’s on the wire grab him obviously but you can cash in maybe stinky shooting from both miles Bridges and lamelo ball Bridges played 41 minutes some might suggest for I tell eight games on I’ve probably got
Side note time if not oh well that’s okay we’ll do that um people spout this they just say it like it’s truth and I don’t think it is they say the following thing oh yeah Charlotte’s already come out and said that they’re not resigning miles Bridges next season did
They no they didn’t as far as I know no has ever made an official statement from the Hornets on that it is presumed that this is the case because and I have presumed this as well because of the way the negotiations went but that never happened the team didn’t come out said
Yep we’ve brought miles Bridges back but um we’re absolutely done with him and he is not coming back next season never has happened it hasn’t really even been leaked out that way to my to my understanding it could be true but just be really cautious when people throw
Those things around and you go really no the answer is no it’s not real because if that was the case and again maybe maybe I’ve missed something here why you playing the man 41 minutes you don’t need to play him 41 minutes to lose to the worst team we’ve
Seen in 10 years 20 and 10 with two Steals on 33% for Bridges court date February 20th by the way which is in the middle of the All-Star break I believe um I also think there’s a risk of him being traded plus they have a two- game playoff week so if you’re
Going to get out of the miles Bridges business might want to do that uh ball only 32 minutes which seems low 174 and seven on 29% really rough shooting there and then Cody Martin started he had 53 and three he’s really just a steel streamer Nick Smith played
A lot of minutes honestly at this point he’s got a horrendous Fantasy game three Z and one in 17 minutes no defensive stats one of two shooting it’s going to take a lot to bring him into 12 team discussions we are nowhere near not even
Close to it for the Pistons um sure all right so k Cunningham was probable to play in this one and then he didn’t which is always annoying and Monty Williams is like oh yeah he just wasn’t quite in the right place for us Monty I don’t believe a single thing you say cuz
Either you’re dumb or you lie it’s one of those two things that happens all the time this is probably a lie but Kade did not play uh also we had 5sec round pick Legend James wisman out of the rotation Kevin Knox got his 13 minutes he went
Scoreless I how is this man in in an NBA player at the moment I don’t know um and Alec bur had 15 points with 4 3 continues to be a stream until Kate is back I want to talk about Jaylen Duran he played 22 minutes only he he did have
Some early fou trouble but guess who fouled him out his coach he had finished with three am I going to sit here and tell you that he was awesome he’s a plus five still he wasn’t he wasn’t awesome but ridiculous he didn’t come in until there
Was about 3 minutes left in the game 14 and8 for Duran like numbers are right and then Jaden Ivy played 22 minutes again I am not going to tell you that he played well cuz he did did not team worth – 11 9 points 40% shooting for Ivy
With two assists he had been playing well the confidence hit that Monty Williams gives all of these players consistently players coach legend by the way who seems that most players hate just is unfathomable to me I am still going to hold Ivy until Cade returns until I see what happens but 22
Minutes in a game like this is while Killian Hayes is out here playing 27 Isaiah Stewart played 34 minutes and this is the man that I know I love to death this is the Isaiah St that I have seen for years 11 and8 13 two assists one steal jacked off 12 Team league
Player get that gabbage out of here we’re okay taking a fly he was great last game but this he just does this so often we also got 27 minutes out of assar Thompson seven points with two steals I don’t think we need to go and grab him there’s too much uh
Inconsistency in playing time too much inconsistency in production too much inconsistency in anything and low usage and I just don’t think it’s going to going to happen but what we did get was the first game for the season from Monte Morris he had 73 and three in 11 minutes
And in the most predictable thing ever Monty Williams sung his Praises is it because of the name maybe but he basically said man so good love to have him out there he just knows what to do he knows how to control Bro you’ve lost every game in the world what does Monty
Williams as 11 minutes do oh keeps it calm does it does it so now we have to deal with this of Monty of sassa of Burks of Ivy of Hayes of Cunningham someone’s going to miss out two of them are going to miss out and it’s almost definitely
Pointing to Ivy being a drop but I just want to see it for a game also shout out to buan for having 344 and four after a real stinker of a game somehow they won though so I can’t really be too hard on tavarus Williams Jr unfortunately I’m sure there’ll be other opportunities

Part of the roters go to hungryroot.com slocked on I’m sure they love those ads um all right let’s do the next game it is the Memphis Grizzlies and the Miami Heat and this was a game that had lineups it definitely had lineups um luk Canad was out so Jacob gillad started
Santiel Dharma was out so David Rody started you’re already trying to lose when you Chuck that lineup out there but uh but when uh you’ve got something happening on the other side of things that’s equally as uh weird it’s what happens Eric sport was best coach in the
NBA but Haywood High Smith starting and Caleb Martin coming off the bench is weird well Josh Richard who’ played 9 Minutes last game entered the starting lineup not teria Josh Richardson and he replaced nicovic who went from starting to dnp city and you know if you know me
You know I love when teams do that sort of nonsense um yeah because it doesn’t make any sense as I’m sure we’re well aware let’s actually dig into the game though because Memphis wins Memphis wins 10596 let’s just talk there’s a lot to talk about here um obviously there was
All those guys were and then no Al D no Canard Vince Williams I think he just legit 33 minutes 255 and four with five triples he shot 80% which obviously he’s not going to be able to continue to do that just he won’t do that but I think
He’s just good like he just does things that are good now next season I don’t really know what happens they might get a top three pick they’ll get a forward um who knows what happens with Steve Adams with marus smart I got no idea I don’t think there’s a guaranteed
Starting spot here for Vince there is a guaranteed rotation spot absolutely there is and he looks great but it might be one or two years before he really cements his a big role but rest of season I love what he’s doing what about the cashier 18 minutes
For zavier Tillman six and four one steel three blocks now I love one steal in three blocks I love 100% shooting but why is he just not playing why is jiren now exclusively a center not even a power forward anymore just only a center tan was playing 33 34 minutes a
Night now he’s sub 20 minute guy uh Jack get that gabbage out of here if he goes back and starts good now I’ll just give you this brief overview as well this team is going to do your head in all season there’s going to be things that don’t make sense random injuries Canard
And n d that pop up at all times it’s going to be very little consistency and then the things that happen like today having Luke Canard out and you got Jacob gillad starting he had six points with seven assisting is that interesting not really but then you look
At his backup someone who we mentioned on this show as soon as he was signed so he’s got a pretty interesting Fantasy game this man don’t like that his name is spelled differently to his dads yet he pops a junior on the end Scotty Pippen 24 minutes for pip 15 six and six
71% shooting so already wiped that part out the scoring is fake he’s not going to be that shooter the 24 minutes is really interesting and I do believe that he can easily take the backup minutes away from Jacob gillad and be there every night but the thing is going to
Come down to does Luke Canard play because if Canard plays pippens Off the Bench and yeah that’s not going to be worth it so I would say to you guys like if you’re in a deeper League you can go and add Scotty P we we talked about this
Already that like just watch that there might be something here I wouldn’t do it in 10 or 12 I’d be watching it but I wouldn’t do it 16 I would that’s probably about it unless you play on ESPN which you shouldn’t ever cuz they don’t give a you can’t add Scotti
Pipping on ESPN he’s been on an NBA roster for a couple of weeks here say 10 days oh and all the time that he was on one last season as well but you can Chuck Udonis Haslam in there if you want Troy Copan is available who yeah
Exactly Mitch M Mitch Creek Mitch Creek Southeast Melbourne Phoenix Legend Mitch Creek is available but not Scottie Pippin it’s about the fifth time I’ve I’ve said this about ESPN they don’t give a about fantasy basketball so don’t play there there’s no reason to it just screws you over Scotti pipman let’s watch it
Okay Johnny cona Little John 11 and 10 31 minutes steel block 71% I’ll tell you one thing Z Williams is trash and Johnny is good and that means there’s probably a solid role there for John he’s a definite 16 and 14 Team league ad and honestly there’s a
Little bit of 12 stuff peeking through here for John just at least as a streamer David Ry continues to be trash 10 and 10 points with two threes and two steals although four assists all right I just do not buy him as an NBA player at all and Greg Jackson played 26 minutes
Good game from GG he had 17 points not much else this is what he can bring points with not much else but deficiency is going to be the problem I wouldn’t rush to grab GG there will be another period this season where he does have really strong perceived value but I just
Think this team is going to be really messy for most of the year and then there’s the like how do we project anything out does Bane play does Smart play is Canad going to be in and out every second game does what is El dama going to do is Derrick Rose alive like
Is Brandon Clark going to return like I don’t know eight different variables here that I just don’t know about for the heat Terry roer’s first game 29 minutes off the bench 9 points 11 shots terrible 27% terrible four rebounds five assists and three steals pretty good I
Don’t imagine he’s going to stay on the bench for long because Josh Richardson started he had nine points in 18 minutes and we can uh not worry about him I think uh I think Joshy might be think he might be washed yeah he doesn’t look good at the
Moment does he Jim Butler we to hit it Twice 15 points for Jimmy four rebounds three assists and two Steals on 40% it’s been a disaster of a season honestly while hero had 186 and three and Bam 15 15 and six with six blocks bam does not block shots that is a huge output what
We did was Hayward heith steep into the starting lineup he had eight and four with two Steals and two threes that’s really good for 16 teamers and Cody Martin not Cody Caleb Martin moved to the bench played 29 minutes had 15 and four with two Steals and a block but he
Didn’t beat the Grizzlies at home with basically a healthy team just no huers that’s ass I don’t know where HZ even fits in on this team I don’t think he’s going to play tomorrow is he going to start what happens to Martin heith is richon out of the rotation yes he will be
Um they’ve got a lot of adjusting to do here still Martin’s probably more of a 14 Team league guy than uh than anything else I think let’s look at the next game it’s going to double check that it is the right game that I’m going to look at
Yep that’s the wrong thing Josh Josh Josh Josh come on we’re looking at the uh it was the rockets and they made some lineup changes too because Fred Van vet returned to the action so men Thompson to the bench and Jeff Green replaced cam Whitmore no Jabari Smith but Jeff Green
Replaced cam Whitmore that’s exactly what you want isn’t it Jeff Green Jeff Green but you know what they lost at home to the Portland Tri Blazer so e may outs from you as well let’s look at the Blazer side of things 137 over Houston 131 in overtime there was a lot
Of trash talk about this man and I do not like him as a player I said this many times but I also said don’t drop him because you’re frustrated he is better than what we saw DeAndre Aon played 41 minutes had 18 and 17 one steel two blocks and that is the perfect
Response after a string of disgustingly embarrassing games this is why you don’t drop him this is why I was not on board with adding dwap wath who had nine points in 12 minutes like I said Aon is three years younger than wath he still is their center of the future Simons
Also who had been struggling had 335 and five while jez Grant had 2 one five and n and getting nine assists out of Jeremy Grant is just actually unbelievable he also blocked two shots not a good game from Jabari Walker but he had a lot of
Early fouls he had 9 and s in 24 minutes he did play through overtime so I’m still holding him and Brogden played 41 minutes 192 and six now playing Brogden 41 minutes while scoot plays 24 just doesn’t make any sense his efficiency was off here Brogden he’s obviously
Roster wall now but this man was playing 16 minutes a game like a week and a half ago and now now he the guy that gets the most minutes every single game I mean sure I just think that you got to get any top 100 guy back I I think you have
To I just how does it last and I don’t scoot to me is only a stash if you can have the balls to stash through the deadline do it he had 11 points one rebound three assists 33% he’s not doing it consistently enough I don’t think it’s going to be consistent all season
And if you wanted to move on do it uh let’s talk a men Thompson cuz there were people well I think he can probably still get 25 no he can’t he had 14 minutes 63 and we wanted it but we don’t get it so you can jack off a man
Thompson get that Gage out of here you can do it to cam Whitmore as well he had 12 points in 14 minutes just not enough playing time Shen gun’s pretty good though 40 minutes 30 and 108 assists well van vet this is like um it’s like Toronto van vet 46 minutes which is
Clearly insane but 18 six and seven two threes three steals two blocks he’s been really solid in that second third round range third round range more um Jeff Green 39 minutes imagine imagine Jeff Green playing 39 minutes 38 minutes sorry he had four points with two Steals
And a block we rostering him while the jollybee Jaylen Green Experience rolled on 29 Points zero rebounds three assists he did have a steal on the Block and for all of my Filipino listeners out there how many bowls of adobo did he have eh um 50% shooting good game from greeny
I don’t care he is a points points League player or a points category streamer I don’t think he’s a must roster guy not much else cracking here Dylan Brookie Brooks had 14 points with not a lot four assists not bad he he’s a a decent level streamer that’s probably
About it I would say um next game it wasn’t the Glenn Rivers experience it was interim coaching Legend Joe pry at the H for Milwaukee as they win 126 116 over the Cavs don’t look now but George nang’s playing well again 14 points 23es 21 minutes don’t care about
It for 12s I’m a little bit there in 14s Don Mitchell one of four from the line excuse me he was also 42 from the field he had 2378 just a really bad night Craig Porter out of the rotation by the way uh Damen Jones slides in to take Tristan Thompson’s um leftovers
Five Points in 10 minutes for him while Dean Wade had six and five in 23 so Wade and yang are like your 14 team type streamers Jared Allen was good 212 and 5 but Caris LT returned so we wanted to see what would happen a to lever and
What that meant for slam and Samy Merill Levert had nine four and four two steals in a block mid but enough to hold so what did it mean for Merl well he still played 27 minutes he had 12 points with four threes two rebounds and three assists I don’t think that’s going to
Quite be enough to maintain 12 team value but I’m not going to rush to drop him after that I’ll just hold I enjoy what I see and we’ll see where it goes the likelihood of it sticking is really really very low but I like what I see at the moment
Anyway for the bucks Yanni 35 minutes 35 18 and 10 67% shooting 67% shooting from the line as well Middleton 245 and five and lard had 281 and4 good games all around there Lopez not his best eight and n and then the guy honestly boring here uh
Leaky Beasley 9 points 28 minutes Bob poris 8-6 25 minutes they’re not must roster players they’re guys you can roster if you want you don’t have to if they’re on the wire they’re great streamers and that’s really about it Andre Jackson out of the rotation here
Joe puny did not like it put campaign back in so we’ll see what that means for Jackson who’d been getting minutes ahead of guys like ponon um and Campa obviously but you he’s back out of the rotation we’ll see how the doctor diagnoses that situation when he gets in
Let’s look at the next game the much vaunted rematch matchup I guess between the Phoenix Suns and the Dallas Mavericks um don’t believe players in their injuries Kyrie no I’m fine I’m going to play through it he he was out with his sprain thumb they replaced him
Not with Tim Hardway not with Dante exom who returned but with Grant Williams did it go well I’ll let you be the judge well the answer is no 132 to Phoenix 109 to Dallas Devin Booker amazing he had a couple of quiet games now he’s back up
To seventh over the last two weeks he’s 13th for the season and G right 46 and seven six triples two steals 74% shooting he was just dominating here Brad Beal 20 and7 with seven assists and and Durant who’ had back-to-back 40 pointers just sort of took a step back
And wasn’t very good 12 points 40% weirdly bad from the line four of seven but he had seven assists he had two blocks that’s okay there was no Eric Gordon there was no b ball so Grayson Allen did his thing again 155 and four remains M roster while nerk only 21
Minutes again for the big F some foul trouble he had 8 and5 did they go to Drew Eubanks is the question well they sort of went to everybody Eubanks played 9 Minutes metu played 14 minutes Bates deop played 15 aogi played 24 good wwin played four nasier little face played 4
Minutes udat AR played Seven and they’re outside of their top six guys you cannot rely upon any of these other Jokers you just can’t they just rotated every single game and I don’t care for a big big portion of things I just don’t care it’s so annoying that it matters nothing
It’s just hard for me to project and that’s a problem that’s for me only for the Mavs donic 34 8 and n one steel two blocks 46% unfortunately bad from the line but good otherwise while Lively only 25 minutes we’ve got to keep watching this because the minutes
Continue to be a little bit frustrating as Moxy kba Cuts in 22 minutes for kber 23 and three wouldn’t say they’re going well 8 and2 with a steal and a block for lively still enough to hold but Jace come on mate you you need I was to say you need
To be better he never will be but you need to be better Timmy Hardway was fine enough and with Kyrie out he he’s okay to roster 17 and five with four threes and Jaden Hardy got a bit of a boost 11 points with three threes Josh Green
Started but one of the one of the kings of the does the least with the most uh eight points in 31 minutes and exom had six in 18 minutes people are still holding Dante XOM in 12 team leagues you reckon you could have moved on like back
In December get that gabbage out of here well derck Jones had six points in 24 minutes get that gabage out of here just don’t need to roster him not much else going on there a grant Williams got ejected after 11 minutes he had eight points but yeah don’t really think that
Matters for the majority of us either let’s do the next one the Oklahoma City Thunder and the San Antonio Spurs Trey Jones was out for the Thunder for the Spurs with the ankle problem and they went with Blake Wesley earlier in the season they’d gone with Malachi brandham
In that position but no and cin Johnson even who’ started for them but no they went with Blake Wesley who had been getting the backup so kudos to pop for um using the backup when the starter is hurt did it work no the Thunder 140 the Spurs 114 well yeah you know didn’t
Really think that that was going to be a um uh a situation where the Thunder were going to lose this game did you no um I’m just noticing some discrepancies in my scores here so I’m just going to go and check something all right got the final score
Now 140 114 Shay played 29 minutes and had just a casual 326 and 10 two Steals and a block a ridiculous Game 12 of 12 from the line stupid the Bronco was good without being spectacular 29 minutes 135 and 7 with two Steals on 50% shooting
We’ve seen a little bit of a cool off from him it’s not outrageous but it’s that’s there what about Aaron Wiggins the best Wiggins 19 minutes 22 points 82% shooting with four threes one block and if your question is do we add the answer is no this was great but it’s
Just not going to happen Cas Wallace I really think this guy’s going to turn into a star in the future 133 and 4 in 23 minutes while Chad had 17 and N hit two threes block three shots great game what about the two stinkers Josh giddy
128 and4 which is okay I gu yes but he played only 22 minutes he had no defensive stats no free throws I think he is a hold like barely but the upside feels like it’s gone and then lud D oh my God two points 25 minutes he did have
Two steals in a block but he shot 17% you cannot trust this man at all he’s always going to pop up as a stream option but that is it he is wildly inconsistent he’s just a terrible fantasy player as a general rule for someone who gets as many minutes as he does usually
For the Spurs um the bad is that Tre Jones was out hopefully he’s back next game they replace him with Blake Wesley who had 124 and six which honestly pretty good game this guy’s been horribly inefficient through his career but he’s shot 100% I wouldn’t do anything here to add him maybe you’d
Consider a stream if Jones is out next game but I’m not going to get too excited what about the horse Calin Johnson get that gamage out of here I agree seven points in 19 minutes with no rebounds he did have a steal and a block though he’s just not very good
Vindication he’s better than this but he’s outs also Jeremy soan also really struggled he’d been playing really well next to Trey Jones and did not here had two points 14% five rebounds four assists I’m holding soan if you didn’t guess I’m not holding Cen Johnson Vel was good 215 and seven and
Brandham had a big big game cuz he’ been out of the rotation 113 and two two Steals and a block am I adding brandham nope I’m not but I’m watching that and him and Wesley but it’s just like a a 14 or 16 Team league scenario Zack Collins
Only played 17 minutes but he had 10 and three one steal two blocks which actually is okay I just don’t think you want to rely upon an 18-minute a night backup center in a 12 team League I wouldn’t do it because the news his Victor wy’s minutes limit was allegedly
Raised to 30 here it was a blowout he didn’t get to 30 and he might play the back toback across the weekend he played 28 minutes he had 24 and 12 four assists one steal four blocks 50% and 75 from the line another Bunger crazy game once more from him
This it’s just it’s stupid I’m telling you it’s going to be broken it’s going to be broken and lastly the Golden State Warriors back in Action memorializing honoring honoring their late assistant coach get the big victory against the Atlanta Hawks 134 112 no Trey young for
Atlanta and we got a pop off game finally for Sadi Bay 18 and S with three threes one steel 50% shooting I do not care I don’t think he needs to be rosted you can stream him all you want you just don’t need to have him uh Bogdan
Bogdanovich had 17 points with four threes he’s had a rough run of things but a couple of good games here is solid and Deonte Murray was good enough 237 and seven without Trey young good bounce back from Jaylen Johnson who struggled last game 219 and six in his 36 and we
Got a little bit of the capala and aong wo crossover aong wo once again finishes with more minutes 6 and seven with a block while capala has 11 and 11 with a block as I’ll continue to say I don’t think you need to hold a kongu in 10 I
Don’t think you hold him in 12 team points I do think he’s a 12 team category hold but I also get it that he’s not really doing a huge amount capella fine upside pretty limited Pat Mills dropped in 30 13 points in 22 minutes with three triples with Trey out
Cool again no minutes for Kobe buffkin because he just loves playing for college park for the Warriors John kaminga the bucket he’s getting more minutes coming off the bench than he was starting 29 minutes 25 points nine rebounds two assists two steals two blocks perfect picked 11 of 11 from the
Field so we already know that there’s a fakeness to that 11 of 11 but that is four straight 20 points scoring games and he looks really good I still don’t know how it all figures out like are they going to keep starting shich who played 16 minutes I don’t know shich was
103 and three which is good enough Wiggins and kaminga does it actually work together well it worked right here kaminga is a guaranteed not guaranteed but he is a points League must roster he’s pretty close to categories as well Draymond 23 minutes 125 and 32 steals
One block two threes if you were on the fence about rostering Draymond in a category League this should push you into the zone of yes I am absolutely rostering him points leagues it’s a bit more debatable but I think you still do it while Steph had 25 3 and8 and Clay
Had 24 2 and 3 now as a general rule it helps when you play the Hawks cuz they’re terrible and they give up big scores all the time but still good production wegg go not enough for me to get interested 12 and 5 two blocks 29 minutes and Looney played a robust 10
Minutes and psky was in the closing lineup until they pulled guys off giggity for garbage time 27 minutes for Brandon 103 and two that is not enough I don’t think that you need to hold psky get that gabbage out of here and Jackson Davis played 15 minutes some garbage
Time there four and six with two blocks I still really do think that Trace can be very interesting they just need to take Looney out of that rotation but they’re not going to change anything after they just won by this amount in this game so I think we can drop Pam
Here think we can drop Jackson Davis and we’ll reassess it later on when we see if there are any changes on this roster shich is more of a 14 Team league guy your 103 and3 is all right but it’s obviously nothing to get us uh absolutely super pumped up about that’s
The eight games they’re done so let’s um let’s look in here now and what what we going to do it’s like a bird the stream of the day not that good because luk Canard got ruled out cool so can’t can’t do much about that can we un it’s
Unfortunate cuz he looked like he would be a good stream but he was not so he’s out the 12 Team Stream was Dario shich 103 and three in a steel not very good Caleb Martin as a 14 team streamer was a w 15 and four two Steals and a block we
Love that one and yeah I do think Caleb’s a really strong 14 team leag ad with 12 Team Stream ability and your 16 team yeah John kcha 16 teams 11 and 10 two steals two assists one steel one block the easiest most obvious 16 Team Stream ever he should be rosted in every
16 Team league and probably probably 14 teams as well maybe even 12 maybe probably not your Yahoo points in ear BN points was Luke Canard so obviously that did not work monstrous line of the night a few contenders as there always is it was someone with a very long name I’ll give
You that Hint it was Shay guildas Alexander 32 points six rebounds 10 assists under 30 minutes dominated the waiver wire line of the night you you couldn’t have picked this one in a million years before the day started it’s Shay’s teammate it’s the better Wigan Aaron as I had 22 points on
82% shooting in under 20 minutes he just cooked he’s such a such a very he’s and it sounds crazy today he’s there kenri Williams and they’ve already got a kenri Williams he just comes in does that’s good doesn’t really seem like he ever demands big minutes but it’s just
Good and then will be out of the rotation then come back in not really going to benefit us much in fantasy but he’s just good the Young Gun of the night the best former for a first or second year player and amazingly it was not vikor wanyama it’s Vince Williams
The bug 255 and four he’s been just really a revelation he’s been awesome I can’t wait to see where his career goes the DT of the night you know who it is of course it’s him it’s Jordan P seven points stinking shooting frustrating the only thing good
About him is his mustache two rebounds three assists he stinks get him off my screen please um let’s look at the top six players as I say and keep him on the screen for way too long who are the top six players today number one was Shay closely followed by
Jannis Anto DMO Devin Booker the delicate dancer alran shenon and look at the next two Vince Williams at number five and the snowman DeAndre Aton he read all of your comments he read he heard me talk about how actually annoyed me he he was great top six players under
50% rosted of course number one is Aaron Wiggins Caleb Martin next nice 14 team guy Scott Pippen ESPN unknown player Legend the 10th one of the year I’m just going to inflate those numbers every time um just grab him in All deep leagues it’s going to be frustrating the
Rotation is going to be annoying I’ve got no no question about that but he’s got a little bit of something there sadique Bay is available in 50% plus of League good streamer matis thall didn’t even talk about his line cuz I don’t care he’s an interesting defensive
Streamer and then of course our mate Lil John kcha okay okay and let’s look at the top six players for Yahoo points leagues number one was Yanni followed by Booker atab bio donic guildas Alexander and Victor wanyama what’s out end of show checklist look like Nick Richards is still just
Floating around get fingers out of asses at him I think even though he struggled a bit today I think Jabari walk is a guy to grab and it seems weird after his game today I would add him Cayla Martin 14 team must grab it’ll change a bit when H
Returns cool and I think you can be okay if you drop Tilman and I think you can be okay if you drop scoot Henderson you don’t have to but things are not looking like they must holds and with a lot of different options popping up like a
Scott Pippen like a John cona like these random sort of appearances from players um sometimes you just have to make those decisions on guys and that brings us to the end of today’s show thank you again for being a part of the experience that is this show and thank you for that
