Looks like the commissioner of the NFL thinks DFS could affect the "integrity" of the game. Definitely really bad news for DFS...

Had Devonta and Charcandrick on every team on every slate on every site. Is that good?

I play everything I can. It ends up being mostly HU and 50/50s, but I play most of the gpps, triple ups, leagues, etc. Get a decent amount of big action, usually vs condia or empiremaker, but that's ok.

I had freeman and west in every lineup too

I can't login anymore on draftkings

I wanna know why you called Empire the "Isildur of DFS"

He's quite entertaining on Twitter. Seems like he fires away at every possible thing that has a line when it comes to sports lol

started off great tonight then Towns killed me

back to the drawing board

Cause he is pretty good at all sports just by intuition, plays huge, and has all the gamble, but is going to get destroyed by me and the guys I work with in NBA cause it is all math.

I really thought Towns was due for a big night. PHI obv terrible all the way around and Jahil not exactly a good rim protector. Also thought Towns would be out to prove why he was picked ahead of Jahil. Wronggg

My cash lineup did well tonight. I think I'm starting to improve in making lineups in that area...

Rubio
Delly
Fournier (sucked)
JR Smith
Leonard
Hayward
T. Thompson
Kristaps
Boogie

(Scored 309)

On a side note, I love watching Kristaps play. He has a few typical rookie moments where he just falls asleep on defense but the guy plays so hard. He can really do it all and is 7'3. Really fun to watch.

The Knicks should dump Melo while he still has a lot of value to most of the teams in the league. He is the true definition of a chucker. If they surrounded Kristaps with some young legitimate young talent and got another coach to replace Fisher (who's terrible), they could be a legit playoff team in the East in a few years.

i had

Rondo
Delly
Fournier
Kmart
Marcus Morris
Lebron
Thompson
Love
Towns

basically built around stacking CLE starters since they're so shorthanded with Williams and Mozgov out. Lebron gets higher usage with Mo out and Orlando's interior defense sucks so with Thompson moving to the 5 him and Love figured to get theirs. wouldn't have minded JR Smith either, although i think he's generally too inconsistent for 50/50s since he's so scoring-dependent. but can only have 4 Cavs.

toughest decision for me was between Boogie and Towns at center. i liked Boogie over Lebron relatively speaking, but thought Towns was a really solid play at C too so used him so i could afford Lebron. i know Charlotte has no answer for Boogie, thought i got bailed out when he got into foul trouble, but Towns just got into 10x worse foul trouble.

really wanted Kawhi, especially when LMA was confirmed out, but just couldn't find a combination i liked without messing up my core of Cavs players + Towns. probably should've made him a bigger priority in retrospect.

i think people were understandably off Rondo a bit with Gay and Collison back, i actually thought Kemba was slightly better value for his price because it's an up-pace game for the Hornets, but i wasn't going to leave $500 on the table and was basically just hoping for Rondo to outscore him by a couple pts.

Fournier i was worried about him getting matched up w/Lebron but it just seems like he's the only Magic player who's been getting consistent minutes, i didn't see the game so not sure why he only played 23 mins, stat line looked really efficient.

Kmart i was skeptical because he's kind of like JR Smith and does nothing but score fantasy-wise and has also kind of looked like shit this year. but he was starting, and i think he's the type of guy who gets in rhythm better when he's starting, not so much tonight though. i was originally on Hood as a cheap SG tonight but read enough crap about Martin to sway me. not that Hood would've saved my lineup.

Morris was my last piece, basically just someone who fit and seemed to have good production recently. season has been going solid but total fail tonight.

I went ahead and did a cash lineup for tomorrow as well:

Lillard
Wall
C. Lee
Bradley
H. Barnes
Galo
Blake
Sully
Jokic

I like both Lillard & Wall's matchups with both their opposing PG's coming off of injuries.

Courtney Lee has consistently been playing 30+ mins a game (even with him coming off the bench), so he seems fine for $3900.

Bradley has a really good matchup as well with some Hawks players being banged up around his position. I think Korver will probably end up guarding him, which is good.

Barnes has been streaky but more consistent lately and he typically seems to continue to play even when GS is blowing teams out, which is a huge likelihood here (GSW -17.5 atm).

Galo has been pretty solid lately. He's a little risky for cash but I just like his price and matchup too much. Who are the clippers going to guard him with? That whole Clippers team besides Blake and CP3 are just falling apart lately also. I think this could actually be a fairly close game being in Denver and could turn into a really high scoring game.

Blake seems like the best play all around out of anyone available to me. $9200 for him is way too cheap and Denver is front court is extremely thin right now.

Sully seems to be locked in as a starter now and he's just really damn consistent. $6k for him seems like decent value I guess, even in a sub par matchup.

Jokic I think could be pretty good actually. He had a monster game vs the Spurs in his first ever NBA star, so he has potential to have a big night even in a bad matchup. Why couldn't he against a Clippers team that's just imploding everywhere?

got home 10 mins ago and started scrambling to get a lineup in, ended up w/ this right now pending news:

Conley
IT2
Barton
Harris
Iggy
Barnes
Griffinn
Millsap
M. Gasol

agree on Blake/Sully/Jokic/Barnes, like all those plays. not sure if i like Lee over Jeff Green or not on Memphis. Lillard i worry a bit about possibly getting guarded by Butler part of the time, but maybe his usage is high enough that it doesn't matter.

I have 2 teams for today (November 24th)

PG Stephen Curry
SG Courtney Lee
SF Danilo Gallinari
PF Blake Griffin
C Nikola Jokic
G Rodney Stuckey
F Harrison Barnes
UTIL Emmanuel Mudiay


PG Damian Lillard
SG Courtney Lee
SF Danilo Gallinari
PF Blake Griffin
C Festus Ezeli
G Isaiah Thomas
F Matt Barnes
UTIL Emmanuel Mudiay

My lineup for 11/24

PG Stephen Curry $10,900
SG Will Barton $5,800
SF Harrison Barnes $5,600
PF Blake Grifin $9,400
C Zaza Pachulia $5,700
G D'Angelo Russell $4,500
F Jeff Green $4,500
UTIL Kirk Hinrich $3,400

I really try to avoid playing Grizzlies. Especially in cash games. The only guy I liked was Gasol (and that was assuming no ZBO). They're all just way too inconsistent. C Lee I decided to go with just because of the mins and how cheap he was. I think he'll consistently hit his value at least, although his ceiling is only like 20ish FP's probably

Well it's looking like C Lee might be a complete dud -_-

Conley had a weird shaky stint earlier this season but generally he's a pretty consistently solid cash option. not sure he was optimal tonight but I think he's at least a solid "fill-in" if you're trying to work around other players.

I deserve to lose tonight though for playing IT2 and not fitting PG in somehow. it's the only LU i could come up with last-minute but i should've just taken the night off, i blame this thread :S

btw what's the deal with Sefolosha, why is he going nuts tonight o_O

I watched the entire game. He missed his first couple 3's, came out and then the insuing lineup went on a run. Joerger (MEM coach) decided to just stick with that the rest of the game

It probably would've been better to go with Matt Barnes/Jeff Green/Sefelosha in retrospect but I didn't like any combos of that when I played around with lineups earlier today
