What happened to Josh Smith last game? I played him last Clippers game since he was starting..played 4 minutes then benched for the whole game

stevenash · 12-28-15, 04:38 PM

You talking about the game he got benched for Cole Aldridge?
Doc Rivers said he saw something in a match up that favored Aldridge, so he sat Smith.

I see Smith gets the start tonight as the 4 forward.
Reddick starts at the 2 guard he should eat up Temple too.

Also I'm torn between Lebron and Draymond..Lebron should be looking to make a statement after that Blazers beatdown, but with Kyrie coming back there won't be as many shots available and I'm worried Lebron will be focused on Kyrie getting his shots to shake off the rust. Draymond's ceiling for tonight might be capped by a potential blowout? Also think Klay will be lighting up the Kings all night like he usually does and should be getting most of the points

Yeah against the Jazz..I missed the beginning of the game so I didn't see what happened and couldn't find anything online, it was like Josh Smith just disappeared

Check out Nerlens Noel as well, priced at 5600 on DK and seemed reenergized last game finally playing with an actual distributor in Ish Smith, not to mention Okafor is doubtful and the Jazz frontcourt is seriously depleted

Git Lo · 12-28-15, 05:47 PM

we need more threads like this. the reason ive been turned off by nba so far is because the amount of injuries/rest/dtd/do not want to play (see markieff). I'll tell you this regarding the OP i don't like Draymond for 9k with a risk of a blow out. Klay is solid tho it was just last year he broke records against this team he could easily do it again but even at 7200 its still kind of high too again with the blow out factor. What about Trevor Booker? Nerlens looks good as well, im going to look at matchups and reply to this later

Git Lo · 12-28-15, 05:57 PM

Ok im not verified or w.e with fanduel so I don't have access but ill give you some advice. Now that I think about it I like Klay and Draymond, they may do more heavy lifting now that Curry is injured but you should look into Nerlins Noel, Ish Smith, Paul Pierce (starting), Marcin Gortat at C, Andre Iggy, hell even guys like Shaun Livingston. CP3 loses a lot of value imo with Blake out for 9k your probably better off spending more and getting Wall

Noel's match up is not that easy though.

DUBnation · 12-28-15, 06:01 PM

The thing with Draymond is that unlike Lebron, he can have a monster fantasy night without taking a lot of shots. Last time vs. Sacramento he had a triple double as well as 4 blocks. Lebron only has 60+ fps games when he's taking 20+ shots, which he probably won't tonight.

Brandon Knight should go off tonight for the Suns, Bledsoe is out for awhile and he should come out looking to prove he can carry the team in the meantime (like McCollum last night). Bledsoe's 20 ppg will need to come from somewhere, Devin Booker will be taking a lot of shots but Knight should also see an increase in usage.

Against who? Favors and Gobert are both out, so he should be matching up with Withey and Trey Lyles, basically both rookies

stevenash · 12-28-15, 06:03 PM

Kemba Walker is the best PG value on the board toniht.
D Green is a better play than James, so is Leonard.

Hayward should be money tonight.

If Favors is out, Noel becomes a roster play, correct.
If Favors is in, it's not that favorable of a matchup.

DUBnation · 12-28-15, 06:05 PM

Favors still questionable but he missed shoot around, doesn't look like he'll play

DUBnation · 12-28-15, 06:07 PM

Definitely on Hayward, he should get a lot of shots tonight. If Withey sees big minutes I think he can have a really nice game, he's played well in limited minutes

DUBnation · 12-28-15, 06:25 PM

Jon Leuer has been snagging all of Markieff Morris' minutes and a lot of his shots while he serves his suspension, still pretty low priced @ 5700

stevenash · 12-28-15, 06:29 PM

Oh, I'll give Brooklyn 7 points and bet the Heat at home tonight.
Bosh and Wade all night, Dragic could have a 30 point fantasy night, at 6K that makes tournament value.

DUBnation · 12-28-15, 06:35 PM

That game should be pretty slow and ugly, not too sure how Dragic will fit in but he has been playing well. Seems like the type of game where the best big out there (Lopez if Whiteside is out?) could really fill up the stat sheet

YouHave2outs · 12-28-15, 06:58 PM

smith, withey, booker are all very far from must plays.

YouHave2outs · 12-28-15, 06:59 PM

Knight
Wall
Hood
Thompson
Parsons
Hayward
Noel
Green
Bogut

So much for Phuking Josh Smith. Thanks for the tip deusche

KegKosmo · 12-28-15, 07:27 PM

just kidding with those harsh words, im just very angry. I did a 1,050 contest and put josh smith in it. He hasnt played this first quarter

stevenash · 12-28-15, 08:20 PM

Looks like another 50 burger night for AD.
Davis is a beast.

It's OK
Smith was listed as starting source: rotowire as of 5pm.
What happened between 5 and 7 I have no control of.

DUBnation · 12-30-15, 02:41 AM

Looking ahead to tomorrow gotta play CJ McCollum again for $7700, I think there's a good chance he has a similar game to last one with Jameer Nelson guarding him.

Also Nik Stauskas will be playing against the Kings (who drafted him and traded him away for nothing) for the first time and has been getting a decent amount of minutes and shots, he should have some extra motivation going into this game and could light them up from 3. He's far from a sure thing but for $3300 it's pretty low risk.

Ish Smith is good value at $5600, he won't be priced this low much longer.

DUBnation · 12-30-15, 02:48 AM

It's hard to pick when Kobe's gonna go off since he's on his farewell tour, but I would think his final game @ Boston would be one of the more meaningful ones for him?

KegKosmo · 12-30-15, 10:06 AM

who in your opinion are the must plays tonight other than mccollum?

Anybody that puts Nik Stauskas into their line-UP deserves to be broke. You think just cause he's playing his old team his long range shots will fall?? Nik Staskas sukks & shouldn't be in any line-UPs EVER!!

Mmhm. I bet you're killing it at DFS this year.

Will Barton should have a good game against his old team/fans in Portland
