1. Isaiah Thomas best point guard in the East and best contract of all NBA? One Redditor noted Isaiah Thomas' production relative to his contract. The Boston Celtics point guard is tops in all Eastern Conference in points per game, second in assists, but makes only half as much as Kyle Lowry and a third as much as John Wall. Something tells me a MAX CONTRACT is in the works once this ridiculous contract is over. 2. James Harden gets to the line almost at will. The Beard has shot 2,693 FT attempts Read More

Most Improved Player: Draymond Green, Golden State Warriors This one is a toss-up between the Read More
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
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
The news on Derrick Rose going under the knife on the same knee he injured in 2013 was surely a big blow to the Chicago Bulls. The team's official release said an MRI scan revealed a torn meniscus and that no timetable was set in his return. Again. Rose's knee injury will open a lot of opportunities for a couple other Bulls. Joakim Noah, for instance, could see a lot more touches as a facilitator at the center spot. In the 2013-14 season playing without the 2011 MVP, Noah dished a ridiculous 5.4 Read More
