2024-25 Quick Mock Draft: Number One

September 18, 2024 | 2024-25 Fantasy Basketball |

by: kelder

Partook in a mock draft last night. Well, honestly, I didn’t. I’m in the area that’s affected by that tropical storm in the Carolinas and the internet wasn’t working. When the email finally came through saying “Thanks for participating” I laughed and laughed. This team is completely the opposite of what I would have done! […]

Does this mean that summer is so over? Not quite, but we are talking fantasy hoops again. On the first episode of the ’24-25 season, Joel and Ossie recap an NFBKC draft that went down in early August. Twenty-five picks and $150 later, did either one do well enough to take down some of the […]

Band-Aid Report

March 14, 2024 | 2023-24 Fantasy Basketball, Fantasy Basketball Daily Notes |

by: kelder

Working in a school, I’ve noticed that the younger you are, the more value a band-aid has. I have no idea why. A Band-Aid is good for just a little cut. (I also don’t know if you are supposed to capitalize band-Aid so I will continue to be inconsistent with that) But give a small […]

Every year, there are guys in the league who we own who ruin the entire experience for ourselves and others. Like, I’m just so over it. The All-Star break, and that game that happened on Sunday night that nobody I know of watched, is a perfect time to explore some of these guys who will […]

Three game slate last night… I watched the TNT game; Sixers vs. Nuggets, and was highly entertained. The Nuggets continue to have a very stable rotation and there’s not really any takeaways unless someone gets hurt. Nobody got hurt. Same with the Sixers. Just sit back and enjoy Nikola Jokic and Joel Embiid go head-to-head, […]

Deep Dame and Bagel Trading

by: Jay

What do the two have in common? Not much. However, whenever I see Marvin Bagley‘s name, I want to say it like it’s Marvin Bagel. I can’t say if that’s because I’m just hungry now or just always hungry, but the place is burning down if a player ever even remotely has a name that […]

Diapers. Tires. NBA in January. What do they all have in common? Blowouts. And they happen when you least expect it. Not to complain as I know all of you reading are jealous of the glory filled life of a fantasy writer. But those games are super hard to get a takeaways from. Oh well. […]
