Is it really KCP day?

Demarre Caroll day

KCP or Carroll day is fine by me as long as they don’t turn in a Brandon Knight lol. I shouldn’t complain too much. I almost broke even. Had I not pivoted off Ellington for Knight in a few of my LUs I could have made a nice lil profit yesterday.. Lesson learned my 1st instinct is actually good sometimes too much tinkering is bad!

I never thought I’d be so happy to win $25. What a miserable week! But I’m alive and the family’s in good health, and it’s a beautiful Sunday morning here in this beautiful new house. I’m a grateful fellow.

And looking to push my luck today. Is there any reason to avoid Dedmon this afternoon?

Gimme all the Dedmon and how about LA today?

day before yesterday i had a lineup that placed in top .1 percent….then yesterday i finished in the worst 1 percent.

the good news is theres always tomorrow.

or today, in this case.

Collison is certainly attractive at his price if Lawson can’t go…..but it being a 9 PM start, theres likely to be some risk taking.

im watching butlers price drop like a cat watches a porcupine in the backyard. intrigued, but probably not a good idea to pounce.

looking at Tyreke Evans early……need to read more tea leaves as far as other injuries and usage.

Lance Thomas is coming back from a 14 game absence for the knicks. I don’t think hes a get, but he will probably disrupt the minutes of the front court for the knicks.

what you think about Ben McLemore for today?

What an ugly slate. For sure only playing a very very small amount of my bankroll today.

What are the chances for Patty Mills to hit value as a punt in FD. I love my lineup otherwise.

For Ben McLemore personally I never chase points when a scrub blows up like that unless I was already on him. I wasn’t on him so I won’t do more than 1 LU today with him.

Will there be another Ben McLemore sighting again tonight?
Also noticed Val price has dropped tremendously since he really hasn’t been performaning. Can he put a show on against Drummond or is it the other way around?

here was his stat line last time out:

42 minutes played, 8-17 shooting, 6-10 from 3, 9 rebounds, 3 assists, 4 steals,

looking at his game log, is his previous 141 minutes ( not counting last game) he only amassed 6 rebounds. in his prev 141 minutes he had 4 steals.

now that being said, he looks like he can score points, and while 6 of 10 shooting from 3 is excellent, he has shown that he can hit from 3.

if Lawson can’t go, my sort of expectation is that low 30’ DK points would be the best case scenario. but a lack of clarity on Lawson completely takes me off him, and maybe the whole situation.

Towns and Lowry or Cousins and Holiday?

McLemore’s price went to 4k all of a sudden (he was like 3k all season). If he was at 3k, I might have strongly considered him in my cash game team, but at this point, I’ll probably only have him on my tourney teams. I’ll have to see though. This is just a preliminary feeling after seeing his price jump so much. Keep in mind someone very similar, Arron Afflalo is priced at 3.3k.

Do I really have to touch a New York Knick today?

Thinking about entering the FD RG $100 single entry today. I never really play those stakes, but I have been on a pretty good run lately and it looks like a good chance to win some decent money without having to compete against pros multi entries.

if they use Jennings like they did last time, I am definitely interested.

If Lawson returned today, would collison move down to SG and bump mclemore back to the bench?

Is it smart to pair Morris/Leuer or Morris/Harris in same LU? I really like DeRozan and Courtney Lee today Spurs really haven’t been defending SG’s well as of late. PG for me is up in the air I really do not like Lowry…I don’t think he hits value BUT my question is in a 4 game slate does it matter?

AD and Jrue ALL day

Am I the only one who thinks Collisons price hike is way to high? Looks like a trap play.

Only one is Porzingod at his low price on FD and a C. Lee sighting as well with S.A. doing horrible against SG’s.

J. Joliday for a Punt/Punt play if the game gets out of hand quickly. :)

I hope Patrick Ewing isn’t in the building , he might be leaving in handcuffs!

Lock in Ish Smith for 6x value today and watch the money flow in 😎

thats a good pick! I like it.

How about Danny Green against the Knicks? Hasn’t NY given good numbers to SG?
