I was talking fantasy hoops with my teenage daughter who is awesome and plays in fantasy basketball leagues. The quote, and I’m probably getting the exact words wrong, was “It seems like the injuries have slowed down a bit, right?” She laughed and laughed. Of course, her team has Ja Morant, Jo’el Embiid, and LaMelo […]

Perhaps you can relate to this. I’m in first place in a league for Bulls writers/podcasters/etc. First place. Undefeated. Until Giannis Antetokounmpo, Bam Adebayo, and Paolo Banchero (whew, what a rough group of names to spell!), my first three picks, went out. I’ve been doing fantasy hoops for 30 years, and it’s never been like […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Two nights in, and there’s already an ancient truth coming-out party. It has been the same since the days of the Aztecs, where they played that crazy game where they shot a ball through a ring and the losing team died.

We discussed last week about the curse that Luka put on the Mavericks with the AD and Irving injuries, but in the week that passed in went even further downhill for Dallas.

So THAT’S why Paolo Banchero stopped driving the other night and chucked up three pointers! If you missed it, Paolo Banchero, future first round fantasy pick and guy who hit a 50 burger earlier, will be evaluated in 4-6 weeks for a torn oblique muscle. Talk about a season going sideways, right? If you own […]

I’ve always enjoyed the USA Today and The Sporting News format of team by team notes. While that seems like a lot of work, so I won’t exactly do that every week, there will be a flood of new information in the next few weeks, information that can help. The information referenced here is the […]

Basketball has arrived, and just in time to remind us that this is still the Celtics world, we’re just living in it. Or wait, is it just LeBron’s world and we’re just leliving in it with his son? So much existential crisis, so little time. Anyways, Opening Night (does it need to be capitalized?) seemed […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?DFS prices are out for our 2 game opening night and we are so so back! Early on in the season pricing is generally a bit more forgiving and you’ll notice throughout this article that many guys are priced lower than they were at the end of last season. With absolutely no current season data […]

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 […]

We’re in the beating heart of draft season, so Joel and Ossie break down how to approach a format that has gotten its hooks into them: the deep draft and hold roto contest. Volume is king in roto, […]

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 […]
