I honestly think this is bad script writing. And when it comes to bad writing, it takes one to know one, ya know? No, I don’t know, just to avoid the self-own, but what I’m trying to say is, Anthony Davis getting injured? Who could ever think? I mean, true, the last 2-3 seasons have […]

There’s nothing better than sitting on the toilet doing morning business, and major, major trades go down. I’m talking NBA trades. Should probably avoid potty humor, right? So before this goes down the drain, let’s go through a few of the trades that went down and how it affects rotations. Lakers: Get Mark Williams. Don’t […]

In one of the more active trade deadlines (we still have a few more hours left!) in recent memory, we’ve had a flurry of moves (mmm, flurry) in a post-new CBA environment that would make things like this very difficult, or so I was told. But instead, we’ve seen a top-3 player get moved (historic), […]

After sorting through the latest injury updates — so long, Jalen Johnson; we’ll remember you fondly next draft season — Joel and Ossie break out the crystal ball and try to gaze beyond the trade deadline in search of future value. Are there tank commanders in Brooklyn or Charlotte that are worth stashing? What would […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

Oh my gosh. When I went to Jay, our fearless leader, and had the idea to discuss rotations, I didn’t know there would be a 35% increase in injuries from last year, which seemed high anyway. There’s a new one every night and everyone has theories why. I am not nearly smart enough for a theory […]

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 […]

See, look guys, a theme! I can’t stress the importance enough of monitoring minutes. One thing I should mention, I won’t make notes about blowout games. Yes, I’m talking to you Golden State and Portland. Those minute distributions won’t be accurate. The rest though are gold. Pacers and Pistons: Andrew Nembhard hit 34 minutes, Bennedict […]

An old proverb states that one man’s trash is another man’s treasure and in the case of deep league fantasy basketball this could not be more relatable. In this article (and future editions) I’m going to highlight some players who stand out on the barren wasteland of deep league waiver wires. For this exercise we’re […]
