If you missed it, Cade Cunningham will miss the fantasy season with a collapsed lung, and Anthony Edwards a good portion of it with a knee issue. Obviously, if you’re in the playoffs you got there in good measure because of these two guys. They’re not replaceable. If you have Cade, Daniss Jenkins seems like […]

A lot of aggregated word of mouth out there is calling this opening stretch of basketball as the best ever, but honestly, is it really the best if half of the content is akin to watching a multi-car traffic accident in slow-motion? Don’t get me wrong, there’s been incredible on-the-court play, but you mix in […]

Timers are ticking down, projection sheets are spread wide, and queues (for goodness sake!) are being set. 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, […]

This is not meant here to be a comprehensive preview; there’s enough of those floating around to get lost in the noise. I’m hoping to do more of a news and notes weekly article for y’all. So in that spirit, here are just some guys who strike my fancy in a good or bad way. […]

Does this mean that summer is so over? Not quite, but we are talking fantasy hoops again. On the first episode of the ’24-25 season, Joel and Ossie recap an NFBKC draft that went down in early August. Twenty-five picks and $150 later, did either one do well enough to take down some of the […]

On a peculiar February 1, Joel and Son look back at January’s risers and fallers across the fantasy basketball landscape. The pair discuss OG Anunoby’s opportunity in New York, Pascal Siakam’s ceiling in Indiana, and draw parallels between Brandon Ingram and Julius Randle. Should the Thunder trade Josh Giddey? Is LeBron finally old? Where did […]

Welcome back to the third post of this mini-series as we take a moving snapshot in time, even if that sounds like an oxymoron. But basically, we’re taking this point in the season to take a look at the NBA landscape through the meta-fantasy lens. Sounds like it’s from the future, with robot dragons wearing […]

Three game slate last night… I watched the TNT game; Sixers vs. Nuggets, and was highly entertained. The Nuggets continue to have a very stable rotation and there’s not really any takeaways unless someone gets hurt. Nobody got hurt. Same with the Sixers. Just sit back and enjoy Nikola Jokic and Joel Embiid go head-to-head, […]

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 […]

I started writing a movie plotline starring Damian Lillard in Canada as a male counterpoint to Stella in the Bahamas, but decided to spare you fine readers that pending trainwreck (and possible violation for racial insensitivity from the Razzball board of directors) and get right down to basketball. With Giannis taking the night off, Lillard […]

The end of each year is now deemed “Silly Season,” when resting vets on contenders and breakout youngsters on tanking teams play havoc with lineup decisions. Three weeks into the season, I now declare this time of the year “Wacky Season,” with Wednesday night a perfect example. There are players who started injured coming back, […]

Last night had two unfortunate injuries. Wendell Carter Jr. broke a finger, and Devin Vassell broke his groin. My advice is to try to look beyond “player B will replace player A” because that isn’t always a swap. Like Mo Wagner will probably start in Orlando making Ma and Pa Wagner happy to see their […]
