As busy as teams are right now, I would've mistaken everything as a February trade deadline rush. Clearly, all the General Managers pulled the trigger for one reason and one reason only: for the improvement of the team. For fantasy owners, we couldn't care less. (Actually, we do, but not to the fullest sense.) All we wanted is see what these transactions do or will do to our teams and then act like a smart GM will do. The trade that went through Friday was minor compared to the one that swung Read More
Unless you lived in a pineapple under the sea, your social media News Feed may have flooded because of the latest major trade in the NBA. Rajon Rondo (along with Dwight Powell) was dealt to the Dallas Mavericks in exchange for Jameer Nelson, Jae Crowder, Brandan Wright and two future first round picks. Talking about the rich getting richer. From a realistic perspective, it tells us two things: The Boston Celtics is in full rebuild mode while Mark Cuban's crew is serious about contending. After Read More
NBA Fantasy Players: Locks For Your Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup (As of Monday, December 15th) Fanduel has somewhat slacked off on changing some prices recently. A bunch of the mid range guys have recently seen increased roles on their teams, which will help your overall score night in and night out. At this point in the season, there is no point in luckboxing rookies anymore. We have a large enough sample size to know who is capable of what vs. who. Now is where research starts paying off, when Read More
It's official. We have put too much faith in this year's rookie class and expected them to be like the four-headed monster (and one lizard head) the 2003 draft class was. Truth be told, as we have put too much faith in them, we might be putting too much unnecessary pressure on these youngsters, too. At this point in 2003, top rookies LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony (Did you expect me to include Darko Milicic?) averaged 18.1 and 18.7, points, respectively for Cleveland and Denver. This batch, Andrew Read More
We have already reached the quarter mark of the season and we pretty much have an idea how the rotations went, who we can and we can't trust night in and night out. The dynamics will surely be different after the All-Star break and I reserve my judgement when we cross that bridge. As a team, what really surprised me more than the Milwaukee Bucks is the Houston Rockets. The Bucks' management had all the trust in the world with Jason Kidd, let him play around with the lineup a bit and voila! Number Read More
So far this season, I think we have already segregated the weeds from the wheat, the men from the boys, if you will. Out West, two teams have exactly done that-- not only in the standings-- but their style of play as well: the Houston Rockets and the Golden State Warriors. After losing key pieces in the offseason through trades (Jeremy Lin to LAL) and free agency (Chandler Parsons to Dallas), nobody gave Houston much of a chance in a stacked conference. As it turns out, the Rockets are winning Read More
The NBA is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get until you slip on the wet floor. Anyway, I couldn't help but feel for the Toronto Raptors. The only team north of the border has turned many heads for their stellar play last season and pundits expected them to do good this year after a little seasoning. Not this good, though. The Raptors currently sports a 13-3 record, the best in the Eastern Conference and third overall. A testament to their consistency, there really Read More
What Are The Types Of Daily Fantasy Basketball Games? When we play NBA Fantasy Basketball, we play because a.) we are an avid fan of the NBA, b.) we enjoy the thought of being somewhat like a real NBA general manager, owning different NBA stars in your team and lastly c.) We enjoy playing with numbers and predicting statistics with our players which ends up involving trades and transactions. Just like the real thing. What if I tell you that NBA Daily Fantasy Basketball will also give you the chance Read More
Fantasy players thirst for one thing and that is numbers. While we like to be amazed at the sheer statistical volume and diversity the elite ballers consistently flash, how about satisfying your hunger with the downright peculiar stuff? Let's get right to the weirdest stats of this season. (Note: All statistics are accurate as of November 27, 2014) Shaun Livingston The former No.4 overall pick may never accrue fantasy relevance in a Warriors' backcourt rotation dominated by the Spash Read More
Half of the top 10 players in the Player Rater are point guards and this is no coincidence. Here we are at basketball's Golden Age of point guards and the way the game has been played in the recent years, you have to have an elite PG (or players that play like one) to be successful. That is even more true when constructing a fantasy team. The fantasy blue print "point guards and power forwards" (explained here) did not come about by chance. Careful observation from our fellow fantasyheads Read More
