It’s exceedingly hard to write about rotations after a trade deadline. By exceedingly, I mean kinda. Back in my day, guys didn’t rest for two games after being traded. Get in there and get sweaty. But kids these days don’t play that way, so lots of guys sat and watched a game or two. Factor […]

The duo discuss Doncic and Davis and De’Aaron and De’Andre and…other guys who 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), […]

The talk of this week and probably the whole season is obviously the trade between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Dallas Mavericks that included multiple time All Stars Luka Doncic and Anthony Davis. To say that it was a shocker is quite an understatement as the GMs of the two teams did not communicate […]

Christmas and the new year always represent an inflection point in the NBA. Roughly 30 games into the season, teams have a strong understanding of who they are and who they want to be. This creates the impetus for change leading to trades that will impact fantasy leagues and managers alike. Most trades will happen […]

Look at the majesty of that pun. Not the pun itself, but the pure lack of any effort whatsoever. Much like the Thunder’s shooting! Aye-oh. Anyways, in a game that may or may not have counted for either you, myself and the NBA (pretty sure it did not count, Doc Rivers in shambles), the Bucks […]

There’s been a lot of chatter lately about the NBA declining ratings. I blame you guys for just reading this and not watching. Slackers. Honestly, I’ve watched less too. But it’s not a crisis for the league. Here’s my take. League Pass: There’s no need to watch TNT games, or ESPN, you just watch whatever […]

At around 15 games in, we currently stand just shy of the 20% mark of the 2024-2025 NBA season. Can you believe it? A mere 15 games ago — 4 weeks! — everyone assumed the very best of their favorite team and its players. Hope sprang eternal across the NBA and its fanbases. Even 76ers […]

SHere’s a math problem for you. Increased Pace + shortened training camp= more strains and sprains and tears. This is the under discussed part of the pace and space era of the NBA. Aside from teams shooting 3 pointers at an elevated rate (even if they don’t have 3 point shooters), the new metrics say […]

Draft season is over and the NBA marathon is underway! As expected, CJ McCollum is returning first-round value, Zach LaVine and Nikola Vucevic look sharp while Jalen Brunson and Tyrese Haliburton scuffle, and Andrew Wiggins is outproducing Devin Booker. Pretty standard stuff, yeah? March and April are often called the “silly season” but the numbers […]

The beginning of the fantasy hoops season is in many ways the most exciting stretch of the year. In your league, everyone is engaged and still confident their team has a chance to win. Activity is at an all-time high. In the NBA, some players look poised to have career years. Others look like they’re […]

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, […]
