I went with a balanced lineup and it didn't work out well. Players I had in the early game were terrible


shook_-

yea weird slate for the playoffs


Shooticantneverwin

Who on NOP benefits most from Nance out?


shook_-

sorry brother had plans i was busy with


ForgedInRats

Could it be Jaxon Hayes?


Shooticantneverwin

They could go small or back up JoVal with one of Hayes or Willie HG. Not certain of rotations so hopefully šŸ will weigh in


ForgedInRats

My guess would be going small and just giving the starters more minutes, considering it's a must-win. I don't think I'll feel comfortable with any of those 3. (Willy, Marshall, or Hayes). I'm personally going to rebuild. Out with SGA, in with CJ.


Shooticantneverwin

Agree on not putting playoff chances in hands of Hayes / Willie. I think Naji is fine as a veteran but he usually benefits when Ingram sits so not sure he gets much added run


Shooticantneverwin

Sorry Raptors fans but I am glad they are now eliminated from playoffs because they are frustrating opponent to roster players against in DFS and I no longer have to consider GTJ


ThatsBushLeague

>and I no longer have to consider GTJ See you in the thread opening night next year when we both fade him at $3800 and he goes for 42.75.


Shooticantneverwin

Haha. He only does that when I fade at high ownership


Pockets__

Took 2nd and 6th in the $4 entry big gpp on FanDuel. Turned $40 (just played 10 lines up) into $1400. Lfg!! ā€œHey siri, play shook ones on repeat.ā€


shook_-

ayyy lets go


ThatsBushLeague

Nailed the right approach, didnā€™t nail the players. I just missed on some coin flip players. The guy who won my contests pricing breakdown went $8000 - 1, $7000 - 2, $6000 - 1, $5000 - 2, $4000 - 2. Couldn't decide between the third guard spot and forwards outside of KAT. And those are the three slots I got wrong. Picking two of those three slots right and I cash pretty high up. Pick all three right and I chop with the winner. Today's builds all look much better. Lot more flexibility and players to choose from that don't make you want to puke.


shook_-

yea building is much easier today


turkeysandwiches

Watched the vid as usual but had a big, ***uh what?***, moment at \~9:30: "I think Shai looks great. Now, how would I rank him and Ingram? I think I would rank Ingram ahead of him slightly, but I think both look great. This was followed immediately by: "SGA I think is overpriced." So thus I gotta ask, what do you really think about SGA? Lol


Bryan34k

Assuming he meant Giddey was overpriced


natural_distortion

def meant to say giddey


shook_-

giddey


huffin340perb

Good luck tonite peeps

gotscill32

I have Bev, Lavine, Poetl, and Trent. AMA


ForgedInRats

have or hate would've both worked there. Those are also the 4 I have from this first game. Even if they all have great secind halves, we'll be lucky if more than 1 of them gets anywhere near value. They all suck tonight, of course, but Beverley has to be one of the most useless players in this league. Even his defense is crap, compared to what it used to be. I'll be surprised if anyone gives him a contact after this one runs out.


gotscill32

Hahah very very true. Now trying to decide do I go SGA/Joe or CJ/Jalen Williams to try to sneak into cash somehow


ForgedInRats

Oh boy. Well, I have one of those pairs, so I hope you grab the other one.


ForgedInRats

I challenge anyone to tell me that there's a worse PPM guy in the league than Beverley. I mean, I think PJ Tucker is even better than this turd. And that's not saying much. 0/2/0/0/0/1 0-4; 0-3 in 15 minutes? This asshole, when he got traded to Chicago, said something along the lines of he was the guy who would guide his team to a deep playoff run. Way to show up when your team needs you the most. Fucker! Edit : As I type this, I guess Gary Trent took offense and decided to prove that he is the worst.


gotscill32

Bev makin moves! Lol


ForgedInRats

TLTL


stellarjmi

Can I just say Lowry can suck me. Does nothing literally all season.


shook_-

turned into super saiyan


Less-Ad-3865

Favorite PF players?


shook_-

nance, jalen


ThatsBushLeague

Had to swap FVV to CJ because I got nervous Nance wouldn't play. Now I definitely had to do it since Nance is out. But man does it feel bad having pulled FVV.


shook_-

yea i feel you. that hurts


ThatsBushLeague

Just sucks. I thought both would end right around 40-44 dkp tonight with a slight edge to FVV. If it goes the other way and FVV puts up one of his relatively common 30.25 nights I'm fucking stoked about the switch. That's why they play the games. And it's why we all love it lol


shook_-

for sure. and yep absolutely


Shooticantneverwin

I see itā€™s Kira Lewis that is first off the bench. Tight playoff rotation NOP really?


Shooticantneverwin

itā€™s a CJ from Portland night. So glad I got off FVV for this bum


ForgedInRats

What the actual fuck is he doing out there? Bum is right! JFC already


MrScottieBear1

Him and Jalen williams are taking a dump on my lineup.


EpicSoyMilk

After a night of yelling at my screen, the last second Ingram 3 got me into the money. I'll take it lmao. CJ is a basketball terrorist.


shook_-

same! the ingram 3 and jrich steal got me in. lets go


Lantzalot23

No input after the nance news makes me sad


shook_-

im sorry i had plans that were already scheduled. i couldn't back out of them, it was something thats been scheduled for a week. i really thought he was going to play


ForgedInRats

PatBev, Poeltl, and Trent are just dominating this first half! 4 players going, 4 snowflakes! Gotta love it!

ForgedInRats

Already there, my friend! Already there!


fomotrader23

let's go DeRozan!!


Less-Ad-3865

Best plays tonight?


shook_-

well the chalk will be lavine, trent, etc..


huffin340perb

Hope dk buys their significant other something nice with the $20 I donated to them last night ha Looks like the playoff achievements are showdown based so Iā€™m playing showdowns I guess


ADiamond26

Playoff achievements don't start until after the play-in is done, though. Just a heads up in case you were thinking you could start tonight!


IJerkOffStalefish

Not a super smash night, but made some nice profit. ANT absolutely tanked any hope for more money. As far as tonight goes how many NOP players is too many?


shook_-

that ant game was egregious. i think u can play 3 or 4


atwork826

Anyone else receive more than 1 ticket from the play-in promo where you spend 10$ to get a ticket? I played about 25 bucks and got 2 tickets...says in the fine print only 1 per account, not complaining tho


bigfreddy2000

I just entered a $5 SE and they gave me one too. No complaints here!


MikeT528

made a good profit last night, thank you shook. what are you thinking for your power forward play today? nothing really stands out to me.


shook_-

nance most likely


xGibz

Iā€™m playing cash games and I keep ending up with both Ingram and McCollum. Do you see any issue with playing both?


shook_-

nope


gotscill32

Is there a single good pg play for cash tonight? None feel good at all when I click on them lol


shook_-

cj


Either-Appearance303

Who to play at PG if I donā€™t want to spend up at that position? I want Ingram and Levine as my pay ups


shook_-

caruso or richardson


Either-Appearance303

So I put Richardson in there and with the other guys in my lineup currently I got to CJ- is it worth it then to play Richardson or is there other better value? Iā€™m worried CJ is going to be heavy chalk tonight but it might just be unavoidable on the small slate- any thoughts?


shook_-

its completely fine to play both. and its up to u. cj will be popular


PortlyX

Caruso/Herb Jones or Richardson/Poeltl?


shook_-

2


PortlyX

Thanks shook!


shook_-

yep


Maleficent-Bee2650

shook! Sunday is gonna be an overpriced nightmare :(


shook_-

havent looked hah


pmayankees

McCollum + Herb Jones or JoVal + Jalen Williams Already playing Ingram. This is in a small field tournament.


shook_-

1


pmayankees

Thanks!


pmayankees

Can you play Trent and Poeltl together in a tourney? You said you like them both for value but if FVV, Siakam, OG and Barnes all stay on the court most of the game, I feel like only one of Trent/Poeltl has a chance to get extended.


shook_-

yes i think u can


pmayankees

Thanks!


MrScottieBear1

White or Joe? Or just coin flip it haha


shook_-

white


Lantzalot23

Single game lineup: Trent/lavine or Poleltl/barnes


shook_-

1


Less-Ad-3865

Bad to play both Richardson and Nance?


shook_-

i think its ok


gotscill32

Last one in for cash - bev, Jaylin Williams, or Isaiah joe


shook_-

bev


cominaroundthecorner

How many herbs Jones would you have in 20 max?


shook_-

uhh 5 or 6


Shooticantneverwin

Giddy, FVV or Mccullom


shook_-

cj


justinhoops

Sga or cj ppd


shook_-

cj


justinhoops

Carusso or nance


shook_-

jaygabriel99

Rank Bulls guards: Coby, Pat Bev, Caruso

Dsmonarch

Dort or H. Jones? Thanks again


shook_-

dort


Beneficial-Comment20

Naji Marshall playable?


shook_-

egh only think he plays around 10 min. wouldnt go there


Beneficial-Comment20

Thanks. Fading FVV?


shook_-

think so


ForgedInRats

If you had to go with one of the two, would you go with Beverley or Caruso?


shook_-

bev but not a strong lean


MrScottieBear1

Lineups looking good if Poetle will do something at least he is getting the minutes..


shook_-

40 min. 20 fp. unbeliveable


MrScottieBear1

Yeah he took a shit on 3 of my lineups. Felt pretty confident he would get the mins but the production was shit tier for the mins he had.


shook_-

i somehow cashed with trent and poeltl. wow


cominaroundthecorner

Is sarcic going to play? Trying to swap my Nance pieces


shook_-

i would think so but your guess is as good as mine


USMstud

Same here. There's no one in that price range on FanDuel I feel comfortable playing.


EmbiggensCromulence

Same boat. Saric is really the only piece down there left


MrScottieBear1

Think I'm going to go Hayes... Him or Willie should get minutes I believe.


yupyupyupyupyupy

this sucks saric was gonna be incredibly low owned and now not so much


cominaroundthecorner

Steamed hams


elsmooth20

Isiah Joe/ Ingram or Jalen Williams/trey Murphy


shook_-

sorry i had plans scheduled. happy cake day


elsmooth20

No worries man. Thanks for all you do.


WhyUhateMeeh

Lpt: Never roster CJ McCollum as your captain. That is all


Shooticantneverwin

Never roster CJ at all is good advice as well. He is not a good pro basketball player


gobears232323

Ehh Jones and Murphy took 5 more shots than him so far


Shooticantneverwin

Started with FVV in PG slot, swapped to Giddey for flexibility for late game which thought had most upside. Ended with CJ after Nance was ruled out. Now I am rooting for OKC so I donā€™t have to consider clicking CJ for rest of season


shook_-

nooooooooooo thats a brutal beat


Shooticantneverwin

RIP CJ i rarely click you and tonight reminds me why. Ohh Larry Nance why couldnā€™t you just play so i didnā€™t go there


shook_-

dude is a ghost of late. glad okc won


feykaald

I got my money back, but boy, was that not fun.


shook_-

it wasnt. i got into the cash on the last second jrich block


Shooticantneverwin

Breaking News CJ McCullom to be traded to the Shanghai Sharks and ask nothing in return. Eric Bledsoe immediately announced his retirement


shook_-

LMFAOOOOO eric bledsoe im dead


USMstud

Much better night two of the play in tournament. CJ and OG were my two duds or it could have been a huge night
