Any of you knuckleheads play daily fantasy basketball?

I play Giant, what do you need to know bro. I'm a lot more successful at fantasy hoops than I am on those rigged fuk'in sbr shit hole poker tables.

Limit the amount of white guys on your team. Kevin Love is really your only exception.

Carseller4 · 12-09-13, 07:27 PM

I just use the entire amount allotted for a team and make damn sure my guys are not hurt.

Had some moderate success last year, still trying to find my groove this year.

Any tips? Any secrets?

It seems like everyone reads the same information, and the same players are used by practically everyone. Example: the last few nights Tony Wroten.

Guys like Wroten that are basically min salary and going to get starter minutes are always going to be in most lineups. Injury fill-ins are always a big thing. The second is to watch out for paying big for guys that may be in blowouts and sit the 4th quarter.

Also the type of league matters large group you need to look for high upside guys and in 50/50 and small tourneys you need to be careful about High risk guys - players like Boogie Cousins or Nik Vucevic always have big time 20/15 type upside in good matchups but also have a tendancey to put up major stink bombs

^ Grifyn Know his stuff! We had a thread last year where we posted our hoops lineups for the day, and added input to help each other. Probably should get one going again if someone wants to take the reigns. I haven't played hoops yet this year, and just a bit of Football. However did very well in Bases myself. GL!

Where do all of you guys play?

I play strictly at Draftkings. I enjoy it, but don't really have anything to compare it to.

I like the idea of guys showing their lineups. I did pretty well today, scored 299, but unfortunately only played in a couple of big tournaments, and didn't make the money. It seems like everyone had the studs tonight - Curry, Cousins, and the obvious value player in Isaiah Thomas.

Has anyone seen the username Condia? Apparently he is everywhere, and there are rumors he won over $1 million last weekend. I don't know too much about him, but I played him heads-up in football over the weekend and won. Although I usually don't.

Like Noles1992 said, we had a NBA Fanduel thread last year http://forum.sbrforum.com/fantasy-sp...s-fanduel.html

The poster jeepsguy004 also pointed out that match-up is one of the keys to pick players.

Condia? Yeah, even saw him in every $1 50/50 leagues? I mean, is he serious? Is he that much greedy?

Not just him, I also saw a lot of sharps in $1 50/50 leagues.

The Giant · 12-10-13, 01:08 AM

That link didn't work.

And yeah, Condia seems to play everything. I saw that he was in some contest as high as $5000, didn't realize he was in ones for only $1, too.

tb1984 · 12-10-13, 01:15 AM

Sorry, I posted the wrong link. Fixed it.

The Giant · 12-10-13, 03:59 AM

Looked like a good thread. Any idea why they closed it?

tb1984 · 12-10-13, 04:22 AM

I don't know. But I guess that some people tried to get 1 Betpoint, and just posted non-sense in it. So, SBR just closed it.

The Giant · 12-10-13, 04:58 AM

What site(s) do you play on, tb1984?

tb1984 · 12-10-13, 05:12 AM

Last year, I was a beginner and played on Fanduel, but not anymore. I'm not really interested in fantasy stuff.

agendaman · 12-10-13, 08:08 AM

condia

condia is a greedy douche

Yeah Condia is in every fuk'in match up and yes he is that fuk'in greedy, or works there and probably has some unknown insight or software program that gets him winning lineups.

Noles1992 · 12-10-13, 09:10 AM

Yeah Condia and about 15 other guys are rakeing 5 to 6 figs a month. The sites letting these guys put 10-25 teams in 1 contest has to stop. Like they say the Rich get Richer! I made it to a baseball final tourney on Draftday and got in the final 16. Won like $3400 overall doing it. But had to beat some of these guys with my entry against many of there's in the qualifiers. missed the Fanduel 1 mil. qualifier by 0.25 pt. I was sick !

I agree. I think that if these fantasy sites want to survive, they need to do something about it. Action will dry out, if sharps win all the money.

BigDeem5 · 12-10-13, 05:38 PM

Condia is on both, FanDuel and DraftKings.

I've heard good things abt Draft Street.

My buddy plays on FanDuel, loves it.
