I could go through and critique all the teams, but that doesn’t sound like something a friend or family member should do! So instead, I reached out to the managers for their responses. Shockingly, some wrote back! For reference, here’s a […]

Brandon Ingram
Dan Titus and I put together this league. Titus gave me a legitimate name to float, and we got a lot of sharp analysts (and then myself) into the annual Y! Friends and Family League. (I am old and am currently trying to figure out how to make it viewable. It should be at https://basketball.fantasysports.yahoo.com/League/friendsandfamily2025) […]

Trade-A-Palooza: Butler, Ingram and Kuzma
February 6, 2025 | 2024-25 Fantasy Basketball, Fantasy Basketball Daily Notes | 4 Commentsby: Jay
In one of the more active trade deadlines (we still have a few more hours left!) in recent memory, we’ve had a flurry of moves (mmm, flurry) in a post-new CBA environment that would make things like this very difficult, or so I was told. But instead, we’ve seen a top-3 player get moved (historic), […]

December 27, 2024 | 2024-25 Fantasy Basketball, Fantasy Basketball Strategy | 26 Commentsby: Maks
Christmas and the new year always represent an inflection point in the NBA. Roughly 30 games into the season, teams have a strong understanding of who they are and who they want to be.

See, look guys, a theme! I can’t stress the importance enough of monitoring minutes. One thing I should mention, I won’t make notes about blowout games. Yes, I’m talking to you Golden State and Portland. Those minute distributions won’t be accurate. The rest though are gold. Pacers and Pistons: Andrew Nembhard hit 34 minutes, Bennedict […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?We do have quite the backlog of moves to get to, so we’ll start off with the one that pretty much started the offseason trading season, and that was the trade of Dejounte Murray (totally expected) to the Pelicans (totally not expected) for Larry Nance Jr., Dyson Daniels, E.J. Liddell, Cody Zeller and some picks […]
