Lawson has been an absolute beast lately

Lawson has been an absolute beast lately

For those of you that are new to this column, I’ve been trying to get myself through the winter doldrums by playing daily fantasy basketball on FanDuel (and hopefully make some money in the process). I’ll be posting my picks each and every day to give you all some insight into who I’ve identified as value picks for my roster. I’ll also be posting my results for each night (see below) so that you have some transparency into whether you want to listen to me or not.

 

How am I doing?

I’ve been hitting on more than 50% of my plays lately and am 41-28 since I started posting these articles. I generally play head-to-head leagues and 50/50 leagues, but I’ve been having the most success in 50/50 leagues lately. They offer less upside, but they also eliminate the risk of running up against a shark in a head-to-head matchup.

 

What’s Daily Gaming?

If you’re not familiar with daily gaming, it’s a fun (and legal) way to pick a one-day team and put your roster up against other users (and hopefully win some cash in the process). If you’re a new user on FanDuel, go here to register for an account and deposit $10 using PayPal (I know for a fact that you’ve spent $10 on worse things). Then, all you need to do is choose a $2 or $5 matchup in the draft lobby, pick your roster while staying under the 60K salary cap, and then sit back and enjoy watching your stats compile all night! I promise…it’s a ton of fun and an easy way to win some quick cash if you know what you’re doing (or if you listen to my lineup tips below…)

 

I’ve done all the work for you identifying guys for tonight by looking at trends and matchups and all that jazz (and with a little help from the boys at LuDawgs), so you all you need to do is go in and pick your players I’ve listed below (and yes, I’ll be playing the exact same lineup, so we can ride or die together on this one).

 

My Lineup for Tonight

 

Point Guard: Ty Lawson ($8,700)

Point Guard: Jose Calderon (5,800)

Shooting Guard: Joe Johnson ($5,400)

Shooting Guard: Gordon Hayward ($5,800)

Small Forward: Kawhi Leonard ($5,800)

Small Forward: Kevin Durant ($9,900)

Power Forward: Thaddeus Young ($7,200)

Power Forward: Luis Scola ($5,400)

Center: Spencer Hawes ($5,600)

 

That’s all I’ve got for you today, so go to FanDuel and sign up for an account to get started! .

 

And if you’re still trying to wrap your head around daily gaming and strategies, here’s a post I wrote for BetVega that gives you some tips on how to win on FanDuel.

 

Good luck!

Fantasy Basketball: The Risky Business of Owning Tim Duncan

By on February 20, 2013

"What?! You fantasy basketball idiots are thinking about trading me??"

“What?! You fantasy basketball idiots are thinking about trading me??”

by David Brady

 

It was All-Snooze break in Fantasy Basketball last weekend, which means it was time for us to watch crazy good athletes put all their crazy good tricks on display with nothing really important on the line – except who does the most awesome crazy good stuff. And we did it without worrying about box scores!

 
Personally, one of my favourite parts of All-Star weekend (and any game really) is watching the players’ reactions. I love the guy who jumps up and holds back the bench when someone throws down a ridiculous dunk. And while we’re talking benches, there should be an All-Star spot for this guy to lead all celebrations.

 
So, after you’ve reconnected with your partner for Valentines, danced like Robert Sacre (you’re already doing it aren’t you), started reading your copy of the FT411 Fantasy Baseball Draft Guide, and enjoyed All-Star weekend, it’s time to get back into the rest of the fantasy basketball season. Everyone’s telling you to take stock of your team and make some moves. I’m telling you it’s time to take some risks.

 
Let’s talk risks. I don’t mean ignoring your wife on Valentines because it’s a stupid commercialized hallmark holiday. I don’t mean putting your iPhone in your mouth with the light on so you can see where you’re peeing in the middle of the night in an attempt to not turn the bathroom light on & wake up the same wife you’re ignoring on Valentines. Those things aren’t risks; they’re just plain stupid.

 
The risk I’m talking about relates to Timmy Duncan.

 
Sell Sell Sell – he’s a dinosaur, he’ll get DNP-OLD’s, he’ll get less minutes, you can’t trust him or Pop vs. Hold – his production is too good, he’s still a top level asset when on the court and I think he’ll play a decent amount of minutes.
 
For my (weak) argument, I am going to assume that his current 29.77 min production will have proportional equivalents in 28, 27 etc, and he maintains his current %’s. I’m going to assume he sits out one game in each of the five back to backs the Spurs have left. I’m also going to assume he misses a couple of extra games along the way with minor injuries. All up, I’m guessing he plays about 21 of the remaining 28 Spurs regular season games. That will give him 65 games for the season (2nd lowest in his career excluding last year’s shortened season).

 

Here’s a little something I threw together to play with and see if he’s worth the risk or whether he should be shipped off.

 
So, plug and play with whatever number of games & number of minutes you think Duncan might get. For replacement player purposes I’ve thrown in Spencer Hawes’ numbers just as an example. He is currently ranked 136 in Yahoo & owned in 56% of leagues. You’ve probably got someone better as a back up (I’m rocking Tristan Thompson so I’m pretty happy with that).

 
Personally, I think I’m going to gamble on Duncan playing 21 games and around 27 minutes. Based on this I’ve still got him projected at just above 15/8 with 2 AST and 2 BLKs (plus his percentages). I’ll still take that 21 times. It’s the blocks & the potential of even more.

 
At the same time though, if you have doubts about those games or minutes or just generally think my formulae & assumptions suck (but feel someone in your league could be shown the value of that potential production to their team), then TD still has really good trade value to the right owner.

 
I know I haven’t given you the answer, but I don’t have it either. I’m rolling with him for now, taking the risk & hoping he doesn’t get hurt. The other thing that is in my mind is the fact that he played one game before the All-Star break. It makes me think he’s OK. I mean seriously, why would you risk him for one game before the break if he’s not up to it?
I hope you enjoyed the All-Star Break and I hope you treated your wife to something nice on Valentine’s. And remember: When in doubt, dance like Sacre.

I went 4-2 last night (not bad) and am currently 31-21 since I started posting these articles. I generally play head-to-head leagues and 50/50 leagues, but I’ve been having the most success in 50/50 leagues lately.

What’s Daily Gaming?

If you’re not familiar with daily gaming, it’s a fun (and legal) way to pick a one-day team and put your roster up against other users (and hopefully win some cash in the process). If you’re a new user on FanDuel, go here to register for an account and deposit $10 using PayPal (I know for a fact that you’ve spent $10 on worse things). Then, all you need to do is choose a $2 or $5 matchup in the draft lobby, pick your roster while staying under the 60K salary cap, and then sit back and enjoy watching your stats compile all night! I promise…it’s a ton of fun and an easy way to win some quick cash if you know what you’re doing (or if you listen to my lineup tips below…)

 

I’ve done all the work for you identifying guys for tonight by looking at trends and matchups and all that jazz (and with a little help from the boys at LuDawgs), so you all you need to do is go in and pick your players I’ve listed below (and yes, I’ll be playing the exact same lineup, so we can ride or die together on this one).

 

My Lineup for Tonight

 

Point Guard: Ricky Rubio ($5,800)

Point Guard: Brandon Jennings ($7,300)

Shooting Guard: Gerald Henderson ($4,600)

Shooting Guard: Joe Johnson ($5,800)

That’s all I’ve got for you today, so go to FanDuel and sign up for an account to get started! .

 

And if you’re still trying to wrap your head around daily gaming and strategies, here’s a post I wrote for BetVega that gives you some tips on how to win on FanDuel.

 

Good luck!
