Last night did not go well. Playing Terrance Ross in what turned into a blowout means he didn’t come close. Ross kept me from cashing on Draft Kings and a number of issues did on Fan Duel. I played JaVale McGee despite his higher price and he busted too. One bust you can overcome on FD, but not too. Oh well, the best part of DFS is today is another day!
The Sixer continue to not be able to solve the Celtics puzzle. I can point to that big no-call on Horford against Embiid late, but really Butler needs to hit those free throws. Celtics continue to own the Sixers and as a Sixers fan it is very frustrating. Obviously, the Sixers didn’t cover and lost outright.
Despite betting against the Celtics, I really want to bet them tonight. I just can’t on the back-to-back. They are at home and will be without Rozier and Kyrie, yet I still like them. I am going to try my best to stay away. There are two games I do really like. Milwaukee with some rest giving four at the Pacers. The team with the best record in the East will close out before the all-star break with a big win. Pacers have overachieved and I doubt they will remain where they are in the East. Take the Bucks -4.
The Nets and Cavs have played twice this year and both times the Under has come in easily. These two teams are now dramatically different. The Cavs can’t defend anyone and Brooklyn is healthy. I keep saying this about the Nets, but they are a playoff team. This feels like a good spot where both teams score a bunch. Why?
Nets last three games total points
265
231
252
Cavs last three games total points
211
195
225
I see a trend here where the Nets are playing super-fast and help drive their opponents pace as well. I am taking OVER 223 in this one. I also suggest a small parlay of them together and you can add the Sixers Money Line for a nice +338 parlay!
People I am considering for DFS
1. Brad Wanamaker – The last time the Celtics had two PG’s out he played 26 minutes and put up 13-4-3. He is the minimum on FD and 3200 on DK. He can 10x his salary and help you fit in some big names. No one will be on him, but I think it’s a sharp play.
2. Dame – Crushes at home against the Warriors. Too cheap on DK.
3. Kyle Lowry – If Kawhai rests.
4. Collin Sexton – Notice what I said about Nets pushing pace?
5. Jamal Murray – The Kings play fast and he’s healthy again.
6. DSJ – Lock for 35 it appears.
7. DeAngelo Russell – I never get him right.
8. James Harden – Close spread should play a lot.
9. Jaylen Brown – Anytime Kyrie is out.
10. Marcus Morris – Anytime Kyrie is out.
11. Zach Lavine – Too cheap on DK
12. Devin Booker – I love me some Booker and may land on him.
13. Giannis – Closer game should play full amount of minutes.
14. Gallo – FD price is nice.
15. KD – Boogie is sitting tonight.
16. Nance – Keep playing him in pace up spots.
17. Marques Chriss – If he starts.
18. Siakiam and Ibaka – If Kawhai sits.
19. JJJ – Depends who plays for Memphis.
20. Ayton – He keeps sucking me in under 7k on DK.
