Just curious what others approach would be. Need to dial back my Nba spending for the playoffs, I was out of control with my discipline spending in the bubble.

Thinking tomorrow doing
A) 1 $20 gpp, 1 $12 SE, 2 $4 gpp
B) 1 $20 gpp, 5 $4 gpp
C) 1 $12 SE, 7 $4 gpp
D) 10 $4 Gpp

I know I won’t hit the 100k but the fish in me craves starting my day with the what if, like buying a poweball ticket.

Giid luck.

A or B

pretty sure there will be many ties for first on FD

Clarkson can be faded if a balanced approach is optimal. Nobody needs him if he scores 26 DK points even if thats above 7x if you can find a whole lineup of 40+ guys.

So Conley going to miss a week but maybe he’ll return after that if Utah is still alive.

If you told me he would score 26 Dk points…I’d go 75% 🤷‍♂️

OG looks like great value at 3.5dk, and this is a shell of the Brooklyn team we saw earlier in the season…

But he’s done nothing against them this year. He played, just didn’t touch the ball.

On the flip side, also at 3.5dk, Torrey Craig has consistently put up numbers against Utah this year.

Not sure we need to dig that deep for cap savings. Unless you think one of them is likely to get 30dk points or higher.

How about Marc Gasol for 4300. Great matchup and he occasionally gets extra PT in the playoffs

How come lineup HQ for NBA is not up yet?

Thin line with him, i agree there is merit to it, but once he eclipses 30 i would think he’s optimal, I’m on that game in general, the other one i could see is if levert and the nets kept it close vs raptors, there could be some leverage there.

So many people are going to auto play Clarkson+Luka and think that’s 100 DK points. It might be more like 80 DK points and Murray/Mitchell gives you 100 DK points. That’s my thought process.

It’s one of those fades where if you make it you just pray for a Justin Anderson-esque 2-18 type shooting performance, and if you get it you’re happy.

Yet if his shot starts falling and he Gumps his to some peripherals and 25 real life points and a juicy Dk 40 🍔 you look back it on it thinking, man that was a dumb fade. 3900 Sg/pg looking at 35 minutes of run, potentially more if they let him run with the second unit as well.

You could play Murray Mitchell Luka and clarkson on Dk

I’m not fading him at all… i could see why ppl will tmr based on chalk, there’s good chalk and bad, like i said i would be shocked if that game is a dud, i love alot of it. Hoping i can get mpj at less %.

I won’t play Luka tomorrow. I do really like Clarkson but I also like Mitchell and Ingles and Gobert and Royce and Murray and Joker and I dont want to play six dudes from the first game so thats my dilemma.

Royce and OG are great value both 3500. They will be on the floor to defend other teams best perimeter player and are often the guy teams elect to leave open.

Love Gasol. If Ibaka is a no go he will be a core play. Otherwise I’ll just grab 25ish%

Love Siakam also

Yeah, clarkson is obvious, but royce really stands out as well. Siakam is my favorite spend, but we’ll have to see the way the ownership plays out. Gasol I’m into as well, but I might like Zubac more depending on what they say about trez.

So you would rather play OG or Royce over Clarkson?

If the ownership disparity was ridiculous between Royce and Clarkson I’d consider it. I think fading clarkson is probably getting too cute, but he goes for 18-22 a lot here.

Yes

Yeah if Conley was playing. I’ll take the over on 30 DK points
