Cool Baller Coulibably

When you’re in a deep, competitive fantasy basketball league, you find yourself perpetually on the lookout for not who’s great on the waiver wire right now but who could, possibly, become great in the near future, because the actual great finds have probably already been snagged if the league you’re in is even remotely competitive.

Preseason Rotation Notes: Southeast Division

by: The Educator

I live in the Southeast, which means I should get plenty of Hornets games. Instead, the NBA wants me to drop 20 bucks a month on a streaming plan—and nobody’s about that life. If they ever show up on Hulu Live, then bet. But that’s an access problem. On the court, the Southeast has some […]

by: Kostas

The Milwaukee Bucks lifted the second NBA Cup and deservedly so, as they were perhaps the most consistent team in those cup games, spearheaded by the awesome play of Giannis, who seems more determined than ever and is all around the floor for the whole season. But apart from his on-field heroics, he provided another […]

Ossie returns from the IL to join Joel and the duo kick off the show discussing the surprisingly bright future in Portland and the predictably grim state of affairs for the Bucks.

by: Kostas

Sometimes there are signs that things in the world are not going as they are supposed to go. Like the equilibrium of the cosmic powers is at an imbalance.

by: Maks

We’re nearly two full weeks into the NBA season, which can only mean two things: 1. We now have more data with which to evaluate players than we did just a week ago. 2. We still don’t have enough data to form sound judgements on players based on what we’ve seen to date. This creates […]

So THAT’S why Paolo Banchero stopped driving the other night and chucked up three pointers! If you missed it, Paolo Banchero, future first round fantasy pick and guy who hit a 50 burger earlier, will be evaluated in 4-6 weeks for a torn oblique muscle.

by: Mr. Hooper

Draft season is over and the NBA marathon is underway! As expected, CJ McCollum is returning first-round value, Zach LaVine and Nikola Vucevic look sharp while Jalen Brunson and Tyrese Haliburton scuffle, and Andrew Wiggins is outproducing Devin Booker.
