If you are a loyal reader of this column you will remember that the first article of the season was about Ben Simmons and his path to redemption that we read about every single summer. The initial omens were not particularly encouraging and after 13 games it is safe to say Simmons is not wowing […]

Forgive the awful pun in the title that relates to an old slogan of Nokia for their mobile phones, but my age and lack of humor cannot be contained. Just like Dalton Knecht cannot be contained as of late and is connecting with impressive accuracy from the 3-point line. Connecting -> Knechting. Don’t make me […]

With 12 games played for most NBA teams and 1/10 of the season already behind us, we can make some initial observation about this fantasy season. One easy one is that Nikola Jokic is playing on another fantasy level this season and is comfortably and by a margin ranked first in value. And how could […]

One theme this season is the amount of teams with 10 man or deeper rotations. Pace in the league is up. 3 pointers are flying. And all that running and shooting makes people more and more tired and also more and more injury prone. So there’s an inordinate amount in the early going of rotations […]

This week, I dug into Basketball Reference’s per 36 minute rate stats. With the trade deadline coming up, I’ve always found this as a way to find guys who have been producing in limited minutes. If you have room for guys, this could be a great stash option. Potentially, these could pay off in a […]

Scottie Barnes’ second season in the NBA was so disappointing that the fantasy realm considered renaming “Sophomore Slump” to “Scottie Slump.” Well, Barnes has busted through that slump like a nerdy virgin kid who just hit the lottery hanging out at a bar full of gold diggers. Scottie’s been hotty this season, and is currently […]

Sam Merrill made it back-to-back career scoring highs Wednesday night, hitting 8-of-14 from behind the arch and finishing with 27 points, 3 boards, 2 assists and a steal, helping the Cavs pull away from the Jazz in the fourth quarter. The casual NBA fan would hear the name Sam Merrill and just assume we’re talking […]

I’m going to take the opportunity of a light 7-game Wednesday NBA slate to a quick scream therapy session so I can just get over this and move on for the season. Dear Nick Nurse, AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH…. Ok. So, Nurse did it again. Joel Embiid was a late scratch, and we got another edition of Marcus […]

The end of each year is now deemed “Silly Season,” when resting vets on contenders and breakout youngsters on tanking teams play havoc with lineup decisions. Three weeks into the season, I now declare this time of the year “Wacky Season,” with Wednesday night a perfect example. There are players who started injured coming back, […]

Man, I just realized that the NBA has six divisions. In the guise of journalistic integrity, I am contractually obligated to write one of these for every division now…
Again, if you missed the Central Division earlier in the offseason, I’m not focusing on the guys for risers in the early rounds… I’m looking for guys to make a leap and targets throughout the rest of the season. Teams are in order of how I predict they will finish. I find that order more fulfilling.
Please, blog, may I have some more?It was an absolutely wild season for fantasy basketball – one that had more twists and turns than watching Shutter Island backwards – so we’re at the point now where it’s time to clear our heads and unpack some things. Who were the top dogs? Who were the team-crushing disappointments? How about the surprises we could never have seen coming?
Well, this week I’m kicking off our awards season with the point guard position. Let’s look a little closer, dig a little deeper and dish out some well-deserved hardware to some of the NBA’s best floor generals.
Please, blog, may I have some more?A little birdie told me our 2024 Fantasy Baseball subscriptions are live. The little birdie also said it includes our Draft War Room. You really wanna lose in a fantasy baseball league to a little birdie? Would be kinda embarrassing, tbhhttps://t.co/1ag7IFSYS0
