There’s been lots of talk the past week on what it means to be the face of the NBA… this was of course started by LeBron James take on the matter. While my choice is not to aggregate crazy hot takes on the major stuff, there are plenty of platforms and personalities designed to do […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Sorry about last week, but not really all that sorry. Thanksgiving is like a vacation for everything but my digestive system. Had a great time with family and did some fun stuff. Did pick up the box scores from the past few days, here’s some juicy chicken nuggets for ya. Celtics: Derrick White has actual […]

NBA basketball is nigh! In the last hours of the preseason, Joel and Ossie review their rosters and rattle off the players they’ve hitched their wagons to and feel good about as well as those that came with buyer’s remorse. Then, the duo gaze longingly at the players they wish they had more of and […]

Welcome back Razzball! It’s been a long summer, maybe you kept up with my corner infield report, maybe not. This is my third year writing for this esteemed site, and I couldn’t be more raring to go. Fully juvinated, if you will. I love the NBA and honestly, it’s a fun thing to write about […]

Last article, I talked about guys that I’m just so over it with. It put me in such a bad mood that I couldn’t bear writing an article for an entire week. To cheer myself up, let’s talk about some fellas that I’m over the moon with after this season. My “must draft” list of […]

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. […]

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 […]

Back from Turkey Day, Joel and Son wonder when it’s too early to start worrying about roto percentages and then take a deep dive into Boston’s starting five. Should managers feel burned about spending a first-round pick on Tatum? Will Porizingis’ efficiency gains hold? Is there any hope for Jrue Holiday and Jaylen Brown? https://api.spreaker.com/v2/episodes/57836560/download.mp3Podcast: […]

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, […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Last night we saw the transition from Shaedon Sharpe the cool shiny gadget that’s just for show, to the I Gotta Have This In My Daily Life type of tool.
With Anfernee Simons out 6 weeks [sad face] and Scoot Henderson injured mid-game, Sharpe took over with 25 points in the second half, scoring on all three levels and finishing with a 27-7-5-1-2 stat line (9-16 FG, 3-6 3PT, 8-10 FT).
Sharpe has been hitting the glass early on this season, averaging nearly 6 per game (including several smooth offensive putbacks) and has 9 stocks in five games. I still need to see him continue to be aggressive, as the youngster tends to stand around and wait for his turn. If he can, this could be one of the better breakouts of the first couple months of the fantasy season.
Here’s what else was noteworthy to me on another packed Wednesday slate, with some boring blowouts and a couple nail biters.

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.
