Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Advice March 20

Rudy Gobert messed up everybody's lineup last night and by everybody, I meant me and more than a third of daily fantasy basketball junkies that spent 16% of their cap for the French center. If you've been here long enough, you can do a lot with $8100. And for the most part in that ugly game at Staples, it was an undrafted slotman out of Kansas,with around $3000 worth of DK salary, that played like the best center on the court. To sum it up, it was a night of disappointment. Anthony Davis hurt Read More

Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Advice March 19

Today's game day isn't much-- only a four-game slate-- but there's no day-offs when it comes to DFS right? It just never stops. Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Advice March 19 The Studs Rudy Gobert, C ($8,100) It's getting redundant putting James Harden in the studs list so let's go a different, but likewise a very rewarding route. Rudy Gobert's fantasy numbers are absolutely unreal more so in a daily standpoint, getting almost 44 points in the past 10 days. We have one reason to be optimistic Read More

Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Advice March 16

Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Advice March 16, Sunday, 10 Games The Studs Russell Westbrook, PG ($12,600) While James Harden has considerably cooled recently, Russell Westbrook showed no signs of slowing down. Another triple-double in the last outing, his sixth in eight games, and a 65.5 FP performance. I'd still take my chances. Anthony Davis, PF ($11,000) He left in the early fourth in the game against Brooklyn but Davis passed a concussion test, prohibiting him from missing any Read More

NBA Fantasy Forecaster Week 21 (March 16-22)

So this is what it all boil down to: the playoffs. Next week will be the moment of truth in most leagues and after 20 weeks of going through injuries, scanning waiver wires, and orchestrating trades-- this is it. Reaching this far is quite an accomplishment given how crazy the season got with standouts like Kemba Walker, Kobe Bryant, Kevin Durant and others spending more time in the shelf than old bread. Chances are you drafted one of them and you survived with that excellent team management skill Read More

2015 NBA Free Agents That Are Likely To Change Teams

The frantic excitement that came along with the trade deadline has passed and now comes the frenzy we all know as FREE AGENCY. Well yeah, it's not quite July 1 yet, but it certainly pays to look closely in the future. (More so if you're a fan of teams that depends largely on free agency to reverse their fortunes.)One thing I'd like to say is there are many more factors coming into play this summer. The salary cap will rise to about 66 million in 2016 due to the explosion of new TV deals and more Read More

Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Advice March 12

Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Advice (March 12), Thursday, 5 games: The Studs James Harden, SG ($10,800) There isn't really much to explain here but the real question is, would you roster James Harden on a second night of back-to-back following a relatively "poor" 33.5-fantasy point performance? Absolutely. The Rockets may be travelling from Portland to Salt Lake but I honestly couldn't remember back-to-back nights where Harden had mediocre games (to his standards at least). The last time Read More

10 Weirdest NBA Rituals of All Time

If you think something that is glorious, baffling, scary, and weird at the same time, it's got to be the rituals of NBA players. Like their predecessors, there are a handful of modern hoops athletes that follow certain routines that are-- quite frankly-- just too weird for this computer age. Well, we can say anything we want, but I guess it just boils down for personal preference. Different strokes for different folks. Here are the weirdest NBA rituals of all time: Rajon Rondo's Pre-Game Ritual Rajon Read More

Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Advice March 8

Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Advice March 8, Sunday, 7 games: The Studs Russell Westbrook, PG ($12,000) A bit pricey but production is like getting two persons in one: 82, 76, 95, 66, the past four. Enough said. Steph Curry, PG ($9,500) Steph Curry, like only a handful of guys, is seemingly immune to stinkers. The NBA's most dynamic shooter has only one 30-fantasy point game in the past 10, and the others were either in the 40's or 50's. Not a bad investment, if you ask me. Victor Read More

NBA Fantasy Forecaster Week 20 (March 9- March 15)

An alarming rate of NBA stars has regressed noticeably this season. Some are surprising and some are not, having shown signs of slowing down the past couple years. Easier translation: They're getting old. Tony Parker, Deron Williams, Kevin Garnett, Dirk Nowitzki, Paul Pierce, among others, are some that are evidently losing their battle against Father Time. In the case of Parker and Williams, injuries are the main culprit, while Garnett, Dirk and Pierce, they are freaking fossils. Parker's decline Read More

Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Advice (March 6)

Here are some quality options for Friday's 12-game slate: The Studs James Harden, SG ($10,400) Did you really expect me to mention someone else? After serving a one-game suspension because of kicking LeBron James in the groin, the Beard picked up where he left off and dropped an 18-point, 13-assist double-double against Memphis. This Friday, the 2015 MVP frontrunner is facing the sixth-worst team in stopping shooting guards, Detroit Pistons. Draftkings actually cut Harden's salary by $100 Read More
