If you are looking at Dean Wade for value, you are making a grave mistake.

What are people’s thoughts on John Collins? Using up my C spots with Powell and Holmes so I can’t get capela. Is Collins worth a shot?

Great point

Just a quick interruption to let you know Jarrett Allen has made 19 of his last 20 shots from the field.

Carry on.

I figured that Allen would be busy with Capela and Collins would be able to stretch everything out a bit. I like him hitting over value tonight with a nice double double.

Do we think Gallo starts? Seems like this would be a good game for the Hawks to stagger Capela and Collins a bit, otherwise that’s three 6’ 9-10” guys. Might be a stretch but I can see Mays picking up some extra run in place of Cam, and it stands to reason that Huerter should be getting double-digit FGAs again.

I kinda like Derrick Rose 4500. Gut feeling, 2-18 last two games. Knicks will need his scoring as a home underdog+pace up

But who’s more effective to neutralize, Bagley or Holmes? I would argue that healthy Holmes is a bigger problem for BKN than the Bag man, yet both are incredibly prone to foul trouble.

I think they fixed big trey, mine is open now

This is the most difficult slate on FD I have played all year. That or I’m just an idiot.

Since by your own admission your clown posts outnumber your hot takes 3-1, I’ll put Don’t-Call-Me-Dwyane in 3/4 tonight.

LOL

What’s the Warrior’s plan with Julius Randle?

Maybe Claxton starts at the 4 if Jeff Green out?

They can start DJ and KD just fine…

It is a difficult slate, I’m not doing as many lineups tonight because I can’t get a handle on who to play.

Randle made the all star team. Good for him.

Will the real Zion please stand up

Svi or dwight Powell on dk? Have had Powell all day but now have extra 100 to take svi with news hes starting im wondering who has higher ceiling. Any thoughts

If anyone feels like really going out on a limb, here’s Rubio’s box score vs the Bucks last year:

25/13/13 with 3 steals and only 1 TO, 8-15 for 68.1 FD points.

Svi starting for DET, Snell starting for ATL.

Thanks Herf. I agree. Think I’ll take my chances with Collins up against Dean Wade.

I’m wrestling with the same thing. Got a stars and scrubs lineup where I’m considering playing 2 of these 3: D. Powell, Svi, Nnaji. Right now I’ve got D. Powell and Svi. If I had to pick one I think I’d lean D. Powell? It’s close though.

I can’t believe Snell is starting over Gallo.

Svi has the higher ceiling, Powell higher floor imo…

I am playing both and Lee… dumpster diving

Tony “dont call me PJ Tucker Snell is starting tonight.
