After a long holiday hiatus, Ossie and Joel return to discuss how the fantasy hoops landscape has shifted during the calendar year and review some of the big movers in Ossie’s midseason roto draft. How far did Tyrese Haliburton fall? Did anyone take the bait on Joel Embiid? And are the breakouts of Jalen Williams […]

It’s a more relaxed week for fantasy hoops as games are scarcer due to the NBA cup so today’s introduction will be a homage to the Inside the NBA crew, who thankfully will continue their successful 4-man partnership next year, despite some logistic troubles in contract negotiations to start the year. The arguably most notorious […]

Talking about asserting dominance over the *checks notes* Charlotte Hornets? Look, the Hornets of this year aren’t the same as previous, but still kinda the same, but still, Peak-Thibs happened, and in a 24-point blowout win against the aforementioned Hornets, Mikal Bridges ended up playing 47 minutes with both OG and KAT going 40 minutes […]

This week is going to be a weird week for fantasy if you are playing in Yahoo, as for some reason that they only know they decided to merge this and the upcoming week into one. That means week 7 runs from Monday all the way to the 15th of December and will include some […]

After a weekend touching grass, Joel and Ossie return to survey the fantasy landscape now that NBA preseason is up and running. While both are wary of making dramatic conclusions based on the first games of the preseason, the duo nevertheless take a stab at sorting out Golden State’s rotation, check in on the shooting […]

Taking a break from early drafting, Ossie and Joel pivot to a dynasty discussion. The duo recap the conclusion of last season’s Razzball Salary Cap League, hash out how league sizes influence builds, weigh the impact of timing in dynasty leagues, pick some favorites from the ’24 rookie class, and consider the buy-low potential of […]

Picking up where the last podcast left off, Joel and Ossie speculate on their five favorite players who were outside of last year’s top 150 but are poised to break into standard-league relevancy this time around. Amidst technical difficulties (flagging mic batteries, power surges, and swarming flies), Ossie loves up some young Blazers, Joel doubles […]

I watched the stupid Bulls lose to the stupid Pacers last night and am in a bad mood. So in honor of my bad mood and in an effort to put myself through self therapy, all of my takes in the recap are going to be people to move off of or avoid altogether. Seriously, blowing a 21 point lead to the Pacers without Tyrese Haliburton…

With one of the deepest and busiest schedules, Wednesdays in the NBA bring action, drama and monster fantasy box scores. Last night was par for the course – or should I say, par for the court? – as superstars Jayson Tatum, Trae Young, Kevin Durant and a number of others went HAM on a jaw-dropping night of basketball that had as many twists and turns as a gymnast driving a racecar in an episode of Black Mirror.
Not to mention – as always in the NBA these days – injuries, illnesses, rest and load management. I can’t wait to crack this slate open. Let’s dive right in.

The Charlotte Hornets defeated the Brooklyn Nets 119-110 to remain ahead of the Nets in the Eastern Conference standings. The two teams have identical 39-36 records, but with this win, the Hornets move to 2-1 against the Nets and secure the tiebreaker. Led by LaMelo Ball’s hot shooting, the Hornets spoiled Kyrie Irving’s home debut. Ball finished the game with 33 points (10-21 FG, 7-12 3PT), seven rebounds, nine assists, and three steals. Miles Bridges added 24 points (9-24 FG, 3-6 3PT), eight rebounds, two assists, and one steal. P.J. Washington tallied 18 points (8-12 FG, 2-3 3PT), 11 rebounds, and five assists. Terry Rozier notched 14 points (5-12 FG, 2-5 3PT), seven rebounds, four assists, and one steal. If the Hornets are making their threes they can be tough to beat and that was the case in this game. They shot 42% from the field as a team, but they shot 53% from three (17-32). As things currently stand, the Hornets would match up against the Cleveland Cavaliers in the play-in tournament, rather than the Nets. That’s unfortunate for us, the fans, as the pace of play and lack of defense on both sides would make a Nets vs. Hornets matchup must-see TV. Then again, there likely won’t be much defense in a Nets vs. Hawks series either.

Changing the format slightly, as I will choose two players from each NBA game last night who are available on the waiver wire. I highly value minutes played and opportunities given when it comes to fantasy. Every single NBA player is elite at basketball and, given the right opportunity, every single player could produce fantasy goodies. There’s a reason every player made the league, so the more chances they’re given the more likely they can produce. So without further adieu, let’s get into the first match from last night.

Can LeBron be corny at times? Yup. Does LeBron flop sometimes? Premier League players break down his tape. Is LeBron entering the final stages of his hooping career? Father Time is undefeated. That said, is LeBron one of the greatest players of all time? He almost won a chip with Eric F’ing Snow at point guard. He’s Magic Johnson in Karl Malone’s body with Zion Williamson hops, before Zion morphed into the long lost Klump. He’s won the chips, received all the accolades and awards, and is still doing this at age 37….
