Sorry about my absence from the Index Monday, I literally fell asleep with my laptop on my belly around 9 p.m. Sunday night. I had family in town last weekend and I guess my mind was zapped. But now I am refreshed and ready to get back to the grind. Tonight’s NBA slate is 10…
Injuries continue to be theme slate after slate in the NBA for the past week or so. Tonight doesn’t get any different. I mentioned the list of names Monday that were questionable or out coming into that night’s set of games, and it appears the list for tonight might be even longer. All questionable: Steph…
I think my laptop is a little more eye level today after the Thanksgiving holiday. The grub was great, the family time was fun, my daughter turned two years old on Saturday and it’s back to the full-time work grind today. We also grind out another solid NBA slate, where we have 8 games and…
As a Thanksgiving appetizer, we have a huge 14-game slate in the NBA tonight. There is some injury news to monitor tonight, most notably Kevin Durant who comes into this slate with a questionable tag. Paul Millsap has been ruled out indefinitely in Denver, opening minutes for Juancho Hernangomez, Trey Lyles and Kenneth Faried. Mason…
We have a huge slate tonight, but it’s one that could conceivably change completely up until lock. There’s a lot of injury news we are awaiting, and that could drastically change our thinking when making lineups. John Wall, Joel Embiid, Anthony Davis (though probably), Pat Beverly, Jeremy Lamb, Tyreke Evans, Tim Hardaway, Jr., Marvin Williams,…
While I am writing this, I am still curled up in a corner, sucking my thumb. Week 10 in the NFL was brutal for me. But I am glad to have a much-needed distraction with the NBA to cure my ills. We have a solid 9-game slate in the NBA tonight and lots of studs,…
Welcome to another edition of the Value Index! We return today with a 10-game slate to sift through. There are some injury concerns to monitor closely today, including Wizards PG John Wall, who sat out Sunday’s game. HIs status as of the publication of this write up is unknown. His backup, Tim Frazier, also has…
I’ve been late-swapped a couple of times this year and now I have been bit by the early-foul trouble bug. Looking at you Malcolm Brogdon. Of course I faded Giannias and Westbrook and that actually worked out pretty well considering their ownership, their price and their down night of production. It could’ve been a very…
Sundays are some of the best days for sports, especially this time of year. Not only did we have an awesome, one-of-a-kind Houston/Seattle NFL shootout, but we had an awesome Game 5 of the World Series. Can the NBA give us anything like we saw yesterday? Probably not, but the NBA has had a lot…
Welcome into the Friday edition of the Value Index. Tonight we have a smaller Friday night slate than usual with just 7 games on tap. For today’s Value Index, I am most certainly going to be focus on PF/C. There are a lot of great plays at these two positions tonight and I hope I…
I won’t go on another rant about how I hate no late swap on DraftKings… But I hate no late swap…thanks Jimmy Butler. Also, insert facepalm for Anthony Davis…so it begins. Tonight we have a nice 10-game slate with James Harden, Russell Westbrook, LeBron, Steph and KD all to choose from ithe top-tier of players….
So how are you all liking DraftKings’ no late swap feature for NBA? Yea, I hate it. Sure, there are people that love it and many who don’t. Honestly, NBA is the one DFS sport I feel needs to always have a late-swap option. No late-swap in NFL, no big deal. I think the games…
