I would’ve taken Franz over BI honestly , he played more games last year and I think he’s going to have a huge season for Orlando, Ingram is nice tho so not a bad pick at all
This year I'm loving taking Maxey, Fox, Jrue Holliday combo- helps you go after all around good big guys in the early rounds. There is solid guard production going outside of rounds 1-3 this year.
What are the pro's and con's of having zero bench spots in my fantasy league? Most people don't like fantasy because you have to set your roster daily. If there was no bench, then your players would always be active. So then, you would not have those people in the league that just forget to set their roster and lose the week because they left people on bench...then check out by week four. Thoughts??
if you go Z score in cat leagues giannis is probably not even in the top 30... his FT% is not only low but the volume makes it so much worse. if you take him top 10 you HAVE to punt that category
Punt ft% & t.o.'s he was ranked 5th. Punting just ft% he was ranked 10th. Not punting and based on all 9 categories he was ranked 104th last season. Clearly people do not understand fantasy basketball. Lol. In any of those scenarios he is not the 2nd best fantasy player. And yes this is all based off of Z scores and basketball monster.
Congrats! The only 3 categories you are guaranteed to win are points, rebs, fg%. 50/50 cats are 3's and blocks Guaranteed losses are assists, steals, ft%, turnovers Def a noob fantasy based drafter here you can tell. Not diversifying enough. Too many resources into your best 3 cats could have been spread elsewhere to other cats by selecting a few different players.
I have my draft this weekend so… I waited for this vid!🙏🏻🏀 Keep up the great work! You touched a very important thing about fantasy - sometimes you get players, start watching them, and then you watch more games that you wouldn’t have watched…

Luka, Lamelo, Kyrie all have a 2 game fantasy playoff schedule. So luka should not be drafted before pick 6. If not for that he would have been an option for pick 2. Kyrie because of the scehdule is noe more of a pick 15 or so guy. If not for schedule, you could argue him for pick 12. Lamelo is more of a pick 13 guy now. If not for schedule, you could say pick 9 or 10. Giannis is a bad category player due to his poor ft% and low 3's. If you punt ft% when building a team then he is a top 8 guy. If you try to build without punting any categories which makes recouping his poor ft% much harder, you either don't draft him or take him round 2 if he falls. Which he won't. He also played with a knee issue all last season which makes him sketchy as well.
JJJ was ranked 12th last season in per game value for 9 cat. But his blocks were sky high and are a type of cat that is highly volatile so even if his number drops from 3.0 blocks per game to 2.7 which is still elite, he ends up as a round 2 guy. Then you have to deal with the fact his points scored is low so you really have to draft elsewhere really well to make up the lack of points. Basically, i do not draft him unless he is there at end of round 2. Blocks is the easiest category to get this year. Sooo many good bigs that can get lots of blocks. Even in rounds 8-10.
Too early. The order should Always go: 1. Jokic Then in any order 2-4. Embiid, Shai, Haliburton 5. Tatum 6. Luka (only if your playoff schedule lands when mavs only play 2 games during that week. If fantasy playoffs starts earlier than most sites do, then he could be taken at pick 2, but would still recommend pick 5) 7-8. Curry or Lillard 9-12. Any of Durant, Giannis, AD, Trae (depending on what kind of team or punt build you want to do or if you are worried about games missed with Durant, AD- usually missing about 25-30 games annually) 13-14. Ball or Irving (note: like Luka, both have 2 game fantasy playoff week which lessens their value when it matters most. If issue with this sub the next tier of guys for these two. But these guys are probable 1st round per game value players. But they come with a major risk) 15-17. Sabonis, Mitchell, Booker That is as deep as i am going to go. Lots of different factors can decide who goes where from here onward. Level of risk with injury history. Is really the biggest one.
Basically you should take Shai or Haliburton in my opinion if one is there. Safest picks. If you take Hali then you are already down on points scored so you can either punt points category, which means to just not draft guys based on how much they score but focus onb everything else. OR the next 2 picks you will need to make sure you get some really good scoring guys. After round 8-9 all high scoring guys will be gone. Example: Jalen Green types.
@@dcanngieter 1.) Horford will more than likely start over White every game that the team plays big. 2.) Fultz averaged more Points, Rebounds, assists, and steals than Derrick White last year-and most people that cover the sport have him doing the same this year due to opportunity. Anything else bud? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@Gamechanger100vibe 1) no he isn't..don't speak on things you don't know. I've been to every open practice and 2 pre season games. Horford is coming off the bench
I would’ve taken Franz over BI honestly , he played more games last year and I think he’s going to have a huge season for Orlando, Ingram is nice tho so not a bad pick at all
Franz has not come close to Ingrams fantasy value in head to head 9 cat. They are about 30 rankings difference in output.
This year I'm loving taking Maxey, Fox, Jrue Holliday combo- helps you go after all around good big guys in the early rounds. There is solid guard production going outside of rounds 1-3 this year.
Tyus jones is a huge sleeper and Cade

If you have IL spots, Trey Murphy was right there for you at the end and you still could’ve gotten your choice of anybody undrafted
Every league should have at least one IL spot, it’s a shame most platforms don’t have that as a default
Man, when you said Jamal Murray went SEVENTH? You can easily get him 3rd round xD
getting ginnias at 10 is wild considering every draft i’ve done he’s gotten picked number 2
Fr lmaooo
points league or cat league?
if you go Z score in cat leagues giannis is probably not even in the top 30... his FT% is not only low but the volume makes it so much worse. if you take him top 10 you HAVE to punt that category

In any of those scenarios he is not the 2nd best fantasy player.
And yes this is all based off of Z scores and basketball monster.
He went 8th in my fantasy draft which was shocking lol

Is this each category or most categories

Exactly 😂 I was watching all types of games last year so much fun

Luka is 1 100 percent he has 35.5 points,8.5 rebounds,9 assist 1 steal,2nd in points 3rd in assist and 2nd in threes
I think Jabari will have a better season than Grant maybe hot take
i'm also in a 10-team (4th pick) and our common players are JDub, Fultz and Sharpe 🔥
Who’d you get first and second pick I’m also 4th

Is this 9cat? No way SGA falling down to 8-10
cant be because there's no way JJJ's projected 35th
Nope. This is a noob draft room.

Too early.

man drafted Fultz over Derrick White.......
A starter over a bench player?
@Gamechanger100vibe 1) Derrick White is a starter.
2) the only thing Markell is gonna have is assist over White...and not by too much.
@@dcanngieter 1.) Horford will more than likely start over White every game that the team plays big.
2.) Fultz averaged more Points, Rebounds, assists, and steals than Derrick White last year-and most people that cover the sport have him doing the same this year due to opportunity.
Anything else bud? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@Gamechanger100vibe 1) no he isn't..don't speak on things you don't know. I've been to every open practice and 2 pre season games. Horford is coming off the bench
