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) […]

Preseason Rotation Notes: Pacific Division
October 9, 2025 | 2025-26 Fantasy Basketball, Fantasy Basketball Strategy |by: The Educator
Off to the West! And just a quick reminder, don’t go nuts over exhibition games. It’s not a real competition. So, maybe it’s just for confirmation bias? Golden State Warriors: The center position is the competition. Al Horford will take his walker up and down the court to start games, based on their practice runs. […]

Irrationally High, Rationally Low
November 5, 2024 | 2024-25 Fantasy Basketball, Fantasy Basketball Buy/Sell |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 […]

The beginning of the fantasy hoops season is in many ways the most exciting stretch of the year. In your league, everyone is engaged and still confident their team has a chance to win. Activity is at an all-time high. In the NBA, some players look poised to have career years. Others look like they’re […]

We are now officially entering the final hours of the NBA preseason. In just a few days we’ll be watching real games, counting real stats, and likely overreacting to real performances. That is to be expected when weeks of anticipation meet lofty predictions and unrealistic expectations. After posting articles with my Big Leap Candidates and […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Last week, I issued Part 1 of my most undervalued players for the 2024-2025 season (with top 100 ADP according to Fantrax). It focused on three players who are clearly valued — they all have ADP between 11-20 — but in my estimation undervalued based on where they are currently being drafted and their ability […]

After spending a few days in the woods, the Razzpod returns with Joel and Ossie breaking down the rest of their rosters for Racco’s Mid-Season draft. Together they tease out how to navigate a slow draft after previously healthy players go down while you’re still drafting (looking at you Evan Mobley and Darius Garland), how […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Paulo Banchero crossed the 40-point mark for the first time in his young career on Wednesday night, finishing with 42 points on 16-of-26 shooting (1-5 3PT, 9-12 FT). Sure he was stingy, dishing just one dime to go with his 6 boards and 2 blocks. But it’s a nice opportunity to highlight his jump in […]

Reed My Lips: Don’t Trust The Nurse
November 30, 2023 | 2023-24 Fantasy Basketball, Fantasy Basketball Daily Notes |by: PhilOssie
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 […]

Back in my day [classic way to captivate an audience from the get-go], we just called it the night before Thanksgiving. But kids these days [mmk, Gramps] have to slang up everything [even my Zyn] to make ‘em feel special. So now they call it Blackout Wednesday, or Drinksgiving. Well those days are a bit […]

Fantasy Goodies Flow under the Mikal Bridges
March 6, 2023 | 2022-23 Fantasy Basketball, Fantasy Basketball Daily Notes |by: Son
Burning bridges. No good, as you never know what the universe has in store for the future. Having water under the bridge? A good sign because that means climate change hasn’t evaporated a big percentage of the water on Earth. Mikal Bridges? Well, he was always a solid fantasy asset because he chipped in everywhere without hurting anywhere. Now, Mikal is making it rain so many fantasy goodies that the water flowing under this Bridges is causing the fantasy landscape to transform before our eyes. On Sunday, there was a flash flood warning due to:
