We’re now at the 10-game mark, a time and place where numbers start getting real, and y’all know what happens when we keep it real in Fantasy Basketball… I’m actually not sure, so you’ll have to let me know. In the mean time, we’ll keep it the literal real, in that, we’re gonna take what’s […]

It’s only six games. People say this everywhere. Small Sample Size should be trademarked. But there are real trends, beloved readers. If you wait, you’ll miss out on them. Here’s some early trends that savvy readers like yourselves can capitalize on… Cooper Flagg is being misused and will struggle this year. I watched 30 Duke […]

True statement is a true statement folks. Since Luka has been out and with LeBron still suffering from old-man-itus (chill, this is shade on me too), Austin Reaves has been enacting a basketball strategy most akin to how the Russians handled Napoleon back in 1812. Scorchin’ that Earth, am I right? Aye, as you know, […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?This will be brief. It is simply an effort to get some information to you guys as reports from training camp trickle in… Zion Williamson is skinny. Like legitimately in shape, and if you watch his highlights it’s not going to affect him negatively at all. If he can stay healthy there’s still that incredible […]

While yes, I am dating myself a bit here mentioning the first time the Jordan Bulls (and any other Bulls team) beat the Lakers in the Finals. Highlighted in “The Last Dance,” we saw the hype of MJ taking on Magic on the world stage, and of course the rest is history. Fast forward several […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Well, took a couple weeks off for Christmas break and time with family. By family, I mean in-laws, so it was more survival, but did feel as if the time was well spent not writing and pretty much ignoring the NBA. Back into it now, and weird, almost sinister doings are afoot. Suns: A lot […]

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. This creates the impetus for change leading to trades that will impact fantasy leagues and managers alike. Most trades will happen […]

Let’s hop right to it. Lakers: I’ve avoided writing about this team because, frankly, they’re boring and as a long time JJ Redick fan it makes me sad. LeBron James is showing some signs of age. I’d guess they reduce his minutes at some point benefiting Cam Reddish, Max Christie, and Dalton Knecht. Knecht is […]

Chicago: Josh Giddey is rapidly falling out of favor with Chicago and if you can get something for him, I would try to do that thing. He’s not closing games even though he’s starting them. Against Milwaukee he totaled 24 minutes and did very little except get called out by Doris Burke for lack of […]

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 […]

A departure from discussing draft strategy and speculation, Ossie and Joel break down the Wolves-Knicks blockbuster trade of Karl-Anthony Towns for Julius Randle and Donte DiVincenzo. Should we be taking KAT and Brunson at the 1/2 turn now? How much of a hit can we anticipate for Donte and Rob Dillingham? Then, a cruise through […]
