So I lost a SG (McCollum) because his name wasn't circled. That's when you really know things aren't going well for you.
Wait, what happened?So I lost a SG (McCollum) because his name wasn't circled. That's when you really know things aren't going well for you.
The NBA requires that teams circle all of the players who will be active on a list 1 hour before tip-off. Portland didn't circle McCollum's name by mistake and didn't catch it before submitting it. He had dressed, gone through shoot-around, and was warming-up when they caught it. They tried to appeal that before the game once they realized what they had done, but the Clips objected. Thus, McCollum didn't play. I guess he was out due to clerical error.Wait, what happened?So I lost a SG (McCollum) because his name wasn't circled.

I'm a little different, but awaiting news on injuries/status:The Gator said:First time in a while I liked a lineup the first time through-
Ish
Collison..So far
Harden
Butler
Mirotic
Hayward
Nance Jr
Milsap
Withey
Hmm. Collison doesn't suck if Rondo plays, but I think I'll pivot to Burke in cash. What does Rondo do to Belinelli? I'm thinking he'll see 24-28 minutes or something like that since Casspi is out, but is that enough to justify starting him against the Lakers?Rondos probable now
Yeah, I'm with you at C. Plus I've read somewhere that Howard's back is acting up and he might sit. That would seem to give Withey a bit of a bump in my eyes.I like Nance alot at PF to pair with Millsap. Chances are I play Belinelli just because of how the salaries shake out. Im probably locked into Ish and Rondo at PG, and Millsap and Nance at PF. I want to play Cousins, only other option is Withey. If I go with Cousins Im left pulling alot out of the bargain bin, if I go Withey I can pretty easily fill the rest in with mid salary guys, but Im not liking alot of them.
Yeah, I looked at it for the first time over a late lunch today. Lots of ways to play it. My preliminary lineup was a dead-on match for Mike's math-preferred lineup, so he's pretty much assured of a bad night. I finally got of the schneid last night with a decent return. Been a rough few days.There are a ton of cheap injury replacements today
I think that's the problem -- where do you spend that extra cash? I had so much of it laying around that I ultimately upgraded some of those positions. Arthur and Booker worry me more than they seem to worry other folks, but it's hard to argue their usage and roles tonight. Though Booker does get a tough match-up with Miami. I ultimately faded Booker on match-up worries (for Clarkson, who I'm not loving either really but the Lakers are playing pretty good ball right now and he's a big part of that) and turned Arthur into Ibaka because I had the $2500 burning a hole in my pocket. I don't think Ibaka scores as many ppd as Arthur, but I think he scores more points than Arthur.So Chalmers is a pretty easy auto-play if Conley is out IMO. Its going to be hard to get me off of Booker or Oladipo too, and Arthur at PF looks like another free square. Thats only $18500 total on Fanduel leaving $8300 for each other spot. From there Im not sure who I want to be paying up for.
I like it for GPP. I'm going the GS-SAC route for at least 1 of my GPP plays. Will likely go Dray over Klay tho. I have both in my cash play.The line is so extreme for the GS-SAC game compared to the others I'm just going all in on it. Sacramento at home is capable of keeping it close and I'm a lot more concerned about Toronto blowing philly out.
Steph and Ish are locked for me. Im going to play atleast two of GS big 3, i prefer Klay, but like alot more at SG than PF today. Then at PF the options are so bad I think I can't not play draymond. His price is too high, but its relatively worth it. Right now here's where I'm at
Steph
Ish
Klay
Olapido
J Johnson
Dudley
Thad
Scola
Cousins
I hear you. I managed to catch my 50/50s with Sessions and Johnson. 0.1 from hitting 2 double ups too. I didn't have Curry tho.I'm not too proud to say I had no business cashing with scola and johnson tonight. Steph is a golden god
Memphis is a tough match up but you have to like his minutes the last 3 games. Rolo, Kanter, Nurkic and Mahinmi are all similarly priced and have some potential as well. I am leaning towards Olynyk, but do not love any centers today.Rotogrinders loves Olynyk tonight. I cant say Im a fan, but with limited options and a 6x+ projection I think Ill have to bite.
I was totally out of pocket from about 2:30 central on, so I just threw a few bucks into some smaller GPPs. I avoided anyone with any hint of possibility of not playing I thought. I'll check that app out, though it wouldn't have helped if the word wasn't out before then.He was listed as questionable along with Wade for a few hours. Rotogrinders phone app is free for that. Isn't everything and can be obnoxious with all the updates on big game slates, but helpful.
Don't listen to me. Since the start of 2016 I've had mostly days of sorrow with an isolated big day mixed in. This comes on the heels of a really good stretch in late December. You really need Chaos, Mike, Wadsworth, et al to resume posting.I'm going to have to start paying attention in here, I'm currently 0/5 in cashing in DK with the NBA. Granted I'm wagering really small but I really suck at this
Agree. I'm happy to share my opinion, but I hardly know basketball.Don't listen to me. Since the start of 2016 I've had mostly days of sorrow with an isolated big day mixed in.

Yeah, that's probably a good call. I could turn Sweet Lou into Booker, then turn ZBo into Pau -- but then that's 3 Bulls and I'm not sure I like them quite that much.I can't pass on booker while he's so cheap. Role without bledsoe seems locked in. Len out tonight too
Funny, I was just looking at doing something similar. The problem is, who exactly gets garbage time minutes on that roster?So much value on the suns with Knight out now too. I'm a little afraid it's over 10 minutes into the first, but the suns should still manage 60 points. Playing Booker and probably luer in cash. Stacking 4 suns in a GPP and paying all the way up elsewhere.
I finally hit a bit of a lick for the first time in a while. I managed to rake my cash contests as well as my triple-ups. I went with the lineup I posted initially. My GPP plays weren't very good, but that's standard for me so I only a few bucks out there most nights. Mahinmi was in all of my lineups and while he wasn't horrible he was bad enough to make it tough to hit the GPPs.Missed cashing for the first time in about a week. 3 points shy even with both lueur and "paying up" for kawahis duds.
Tonight is looking like a more balanced lineup night. Initial didn't have anyone above kembas and horfords $8200
