It's the playoffs, everyone! A great time of the year for fans who have teams in it, and a great time of the year for fans who don't, but are wishing that their friends' teams lose. I'm a Green Bay fan, and while the season hasn't gone the way I was hoping, they made the […]

Full Story »Paul Millsap (PF, ATL) - DraftKings Smart and Safe Play on 1/5/16
Paul Millsap (at NY, $8,100) After a couple rough games, Millsap has bounced back like a bully on the school yard. Over Atlanta’s last four games, Millsap has averaged 21.75/9/4.75/1.75/3.25, which is good enough for 49.6 DKP per game during that span. Silly. He should have no problem attacking Kristaps Porzingis and all of his defensive inefficiency.
Full Story »Carmelo Anthony (SF, NYK) - DraftKings Big Money Play on 1/5/16
Carmelo Anthony (at ATL, $8,200) Melo has the highest floor of any swing/small forward on the slate for Tuesday. Sure, picking him comes with some baggage. He is having his worst shooting year of his career since his rookie season and his usage rate is the lowest it has been in 10 seasons. Still, I’ll have no […]
Full Story »Shaun Livingston (PG, GS) - DraftKings Value Play on 1/5/16
Shaun Livingston (at LAL, $4,500) Although I am not an NBA coach (yet), I don’t think there is any way the Warriors will play Steph Curry. He is listed as questionable as of this writing, but Golden State will be on the back end of two straight and will most likely be favored by about a million […]
Full Story »Wesley Matthews (SG, DAL) - DraftKings Value Play on 1/5/16
Wesley Matthews (vs SAC, $5,000) Sacramento has allowed a blistering 45 DKPPG to opposing shooting guards over the last five games, which ranks them last out of every team during that span. Matthews hasn’t exactly been lighting it up over his last ten games, but he has shown some flashes of getting back into the groove as […]
Full Story »Louis Williams (SG, LAL) and Larry Nance Jr. (PF, LAL) - Stack on FanDuel 1/5
Louis Williams (vs. GS) - $5,700 Williams isn't always the safest play, but it seems like he's starting to get in a rhythm again recently. His minutes have been in the mid-30s, and he's getting more shots as of late. The Lakers should be trailing for most if not all of this game. That should […]
Full Story »J.J. Barea (PG, DAL) - Value Play on FanDuel 1/5
J.J. Barea (vs. SAC) - $4,600 Deron Williams' reoccurring hamstring injury doesn't bode well for his status in Tuesday's game. If he plays, point guard is a mess. However, if he sits, I like Barea to have another strong outing. The Kings will push the pace, giving Barea plenty of chances to reach a double-double […]
Full Story »Draymond Green (PF, GS) - Big Money Play on FanDuel 1/5
Draymond Green (at LAL) - $9,700 I'm not sure there's a price that I wouldn't pay for this guy right now. I would say I'm worried about the blowout and all that, but he's getting triple doubles in three quarters. With or without Curry. Are you kidding me? It would be wise to play Green […]

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs. SAC) - $4,600 ANALYSIS: Deron Williams' reoccurring hamstring injury doesn't bode well for his status in Tuesday's game. If he plays, point guard is a mess. However, if he sits, I like Barea to have another strong outing. The Kings will push the pace, giving Barea plenty of chances to reach a double-double […]
Full Story »Rajon Rondo (PG, SAC) - Elite FanDuel Play on 1/5/16
MATCHUP/VALUE: at DAL) - $7,800 ANALYSIS: I don't love Stephen Curry tonight. Fresh off an injury, the first thing the Warriors will do if they get a sizable lead is bench their star. So, Rondo becomes the premier point guard of the night. Aside from the nice tear that he's on lately, he gets to […]
