Seems like a hangover after last night’s craziness.

Think everyone’s gonna get back on John Collins after his big game against MIA the other day, but with no Young think Spo figures out how to defend Collins differently, I’m fading.

Hoping Favors is ruled out so we can go back to Hayes. Like a lot of that Den/NO game honestly.

Only made 2 lineups I really like covered everything 🙏

Man if only I had faded the warriors game. On to today. Need a short memory

Are the Warriors playing today? Want to see them lose again and Draymond Green look like the scrub that he is when not surrounded by all kinds of stars.

I kinda was hoping Jrue Holliday was still gonna be out today, but that looks like it’s not gonna come to fruition. I really like Ingram, his usage is insane.

Kawhi Leonard Revenge Game.

Jahil Okafor is starting. Take a chance & roster him & pay up at another position? Or is this a bad idea?

The only way to win tonight with this garbage can of a slate

who starts PG for the Hawks with Trae gone? Goodwin?

Dejounte Murray is possibly the best on ball defender in the league. Should be some must see vs Kawhi tonight.

Seems they went with Bembry to start the 2nd half the other night. He picked up a bunch of minutes.

So are we to assume Kawhi is back playing tonight? If so, I really like the matchup. Run it back with DDR…And still wanna play Hart, even with Holiday back

I’m also fading Collins. He made a career high 5 threes last game against Miami.
This could be a blow out. I like Nunn and Herro in this game

I made the mistake of going with Nunn last time with him starting instead of Herro. I want whoever is coming off the bench, and maybe Dragic too. On the first team with Butler back there’s so much less usage.

Doesn’t DeRozan go ghost when he plays Kawhi?

2 days ago we had a 3 game slate, and I flooded the forum with stats that were probably too small of a sample size to matter, but I’m going to do it again today and maybe we can find something useful in it. This time though I’ll only mention things truly worth noting, with why I think they’re worth noting and how it might help make some decisions going game by game.

Off topic, but did you guys see KAT’s and Embiids Twitter and IG comments? lmao comedy

Actually, I thought it was the other way around last season, at least the first time they plaYed. DeRozan had a big game, and Kawhi disappeared. I actually think they’ll both have big games tonight. Might just stack the game, anticipating the others may blow out

Dude, I know it’s unrelated but that was awesome. Lol, got even better on Twitter. I like them both a lot, but if you’re on an opposing team it would be so easy to HATE Joel Embiid

Oh ok. Yeah it was one or the other.

Stats shmats, who is the LOCK HIM IN rozier pick of the day. I blindly locked him in at 50% last night at 3% ownership. thaaaaanks

Last night was one of the most entertaining NBA nights in a while. Joel vs Kat – Houston all-star game and Warriors with the dagger to their hearts.

That’s why we got to look at the stats!

Both DDR and Kawhi will see the other teams best defender tonight. Not saying to fade on a three game slate but they might not be ceiling efforts if that’s what you might be expecting

Isn’t Dejounte still only going to play 20-25 min?

PF and C suck on FD like always. I don’t think we can just dismiss Collins on a 3 game slate esp with the limited options at those positions. Love how FD bumped up Cam’s price to 4400. How has his play warranted a price increase?
