2023-24 Midseason Fantasy Power Rankings, 23-26

January 26, 2024 | 2023-24 Fantasy Basketball, 2023-24 Fantasy Rankings | 6 Comments

As you may or may not have heard (read?), we’re doing some Midseason Rankings just to see how the NBA fantasy landscape is shaping. If you tuned in last time, we covered the “Draft Capital” tier, which seems like inadvertent shade since the upcoming draft is pretty barren compared to the recent WEMBYPOCALYPSE, but it’s […]

Buy/Sell: The Tank Commander

November 22, 2023 | 2023-24 Fantasy Basketball, Fantasy Basketball Buy/Sell |

by: Kostas

We knew from the preseason that the Wizards would suck this year. They traded away their best players, kept Kyle Kuzma to have someone score until they trade him to a contender and one brief look on their roster is enough to deduce that their defense would be atrocious. All those assumptions have come to […]

Taking Offense on a Tuesday Recap

November 22, 2023 | 2023-24 Fantasy Basketball, Fantasy Basketball Daily Notes | 2 Comments

by: kelder

Let’s go it be the Tuesday recap! I’m not really offended, just talking about this first game: Holy Offense: Pacers over Hawks The score was 157-152 and there was no overtime. Woulda been a fun game for Jeff Van Gundy to call, talk about lack of defense all game. Lots of fantasy stuffing here, obviously. […]

Buy/Sell: The Sky(lar) Is The Limit, But Dameris Had None

November 16, 2023 | 2023-24 Fantasy Basketball, Fantasy Basketball Buy/Sell |

by: Kostas

In the NBA, it is very rare to hear a team announcer say something that is not a part of their job description. Most focus on their teams and their players, doing their job and rarely deviate. But boy did Brian Dameris, the announcer for the Dallas Mavericks, deviate from the norm of his colleagues. […]

Excuse my terrible pun in the title, I couldn’t help myself but I’m proud I managed to find one for 2 of the players included as suggestions this week. Be thankful that I didn’t try to fit Hawkins in there with some kind of extension to the pun including the “Hawks” in his surname. I […]

NBA DFS Advice for March 30th

March 30, 2023 | 2022-23 Fantasy Basketball, DFS |

by: Bball Oracle

Welcome back to another round of NBA DFS! We have a really different kind of slate this Thursday with only two games. This slate is more similar to a playoff DFS type slate with very few options and lots of duplicate lineups. Odds are, a lot of tournament winnings will be split among multiple people with the top scoring lineup. There are only so many viable combinations you can make with two games. Since there are so few options, I’m going to break this down by price range only and give you a few options I like in each range.

What Can Brown Do For You?

March 27, 2023 | 2022-23 Fantasy Basketball, Fantasy Basketball Daily Notes |

by: Son

20 years ago, UPS had an ad campaign with the slogan, “What can Brown do for you?”

Brown says: Make your life easier

Brown tells me that you have all the choices you want

Brown says to me: Get your shipments to your customers, when they need it and where they need it

Brown says: Relax, we’ll get it done

Brown says: How about some more pie?

Brown didn’t say that

What a stupid ass commercial but it serves our purpose today because Jaylen Brown freaking delivered the goods on Sunday.

The Boston Celtics Won the All-Star Game… Wait, What?

February 23, 2023 | 2022-23 Fantasy Basketball |

by: John Frascella

Normally, I come at ya fast and furious with my NBA Wednesday fantasy recap; but well, there are no Wednesday games this week. With that in mind, we turn our attention back to the All-Star Game, one highlighted by two guys on the same team that weren’t on the same team. Yes, I know that looks dumb when you read it, but it’s true.

NBA DFS Advice for February 15th

February 15, 2023 | 2022-23 Fantasy Basketball, DFS |

by: Bball Oracle

The self titled BBall Oracle back again here to break down some NBA DFS. We have a large 10 game slate right before the All-Star break. #1 piece of advice as always is to be up to date on injuries, as the info in this article will only be up to date as of Tuesday night. I’d expect quite a bit of phantom injuries and rest for players right before the break.

You have to read this because I watched hoops on Valentine’s Day

February 15, 2023 | 2022-23 Fantasy Basketball, Fantasy Basketball Daily Notes |

by: kelder

You read that right. Valentine’s Day is an objectively stupid holiday, and after 18 years of marriage the wife and I were good with a nice cup of coffee and takeout for the day. Then I watched the Bucks vs. Celtics game on TNT, and took a huge gamble at that! It paid off though, but please honor my sacrifice for your benefit and click on this article multiple times. I took the huge risk for all of you.

Pick-and-Rollin’ to Victory: Embiid and Harden Pace Philly

February 2, 2023 | 2022-23 Fantasy Basketball, Fantasy Basketball Daily Notes |

by: John Frascella

Sometimes you need to stand back and take a good, hard look at your personal biases as a writer.

When I do that while wearing my NBA hat, I can clearly see that I don’t give the Philadelphia 76ers a lot of love. What can I say? I just can’t stand James Harden. A couple years back he came to my Nets amidst hope and big dreams – a “Superteam” with Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving – and left the way he always does: As a loser. Harden is one of the greatest regular season players of all time – a true fantasy basketball god over the course of his career – but he crumbles like no other in the playoffs. And can we really say much better for the veteran combination of Joel Embiid and Tobias Harris? Despite big names and strong stat sheet production, this Philly team hasn’t gotten anywhere with this core over time.

Maybe this season will be different? I doubt it. Yet and still, Harden and Embiid had their patented pick-and-roll rollin’ Wednesday night, on their way to a solid 105-94 victory over the pesky, young Orlando Magic. Let’s dive in and take a closer look from a fantasy perspective.
