| 0:00.0 | Hello, everybody, and welcome to Fantasy NBA today. |
| 0:03.5 | Sports Itos presentation brought to you by our great partners at Fandle. We're looking to win your Fantasy League. You are in the right place. We got a great show lined up for you today as we break down the week ahead, take a look at which teams have the best schedules and identify the players you should consider streaming. Don't you sing over me, Doc? A quick shout out to all of our listeners. more and more of you guys are tuning in, whether you're new to the show or you guys are longtime supporters for the last 20 years. We're glad you're here. And we have a huge show for you here. And we have an interesting kind of a week. We've got four days of seven game action. It seems like the schedule is kind of thinned out and it's given us the seven game nights. |
| 0:39.1 | I kind of like them. You know, I am a fan of the 13 game night. I'm not going to get you wrong there. Don't get me wrong. But I like a seven game night. I think it's a good, perfect balance. Those games are Tuesday, Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday. And then we got nine on Monday, 8 on Thursday and 8 on Friday. |
| 0:54.0 | So this is kind of low and slow, but we're going to get through a lot of different streaming |
| 0:59.5 | scenarios here. |
| 1:00.1 | We're going to have Miami with five games this week. |
| 1:02.7 | We've got 16 teams with four games. |
| 1:04.4 | We've got 11 teams with three games. |
| 1:06.5 | So about half the league is short this week. |
| 1:08.4 | And then you got two teams with two games, and that is Orlando and Cortland. |
| 1:14.0 | We have one team with two back to backs. |
| 1:16.1 | That's Miami, obviously, because of the five games there. |
| 1:18.8 | The best schedules starting on Monday with the heat. |
| 1:24.6 | We have a Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, Sunday scenario. So, Doc, what are you going to do with the Heat? I mean, everybody's going to be on them to some degree. How do you order these guys and let's get going? Well, I think Pella Larson is an interesting pickup right now. If you've got him, keep him, I've got him on team. I thought about dropping him. |
| 1:44.3 | And I was like, oh, the heat played five times this week. I want him on my team. Like you mentioned, |
| 1:49.8 | Hawkes has already ruled out for Thursday night. So he's kind of banged up. He's probably going to sit |
| 1:58.5 | out those back to backs. The most interesting |
| 2:00.9 | player on the heat in this scenario is probably our guy, uh, Khalil Ware. Like, are we going to get |
| 2:10.0 | two good games and three pieces of crap from Kalil where this week? He's probably going to play |
| 2:15.8 | in all five games. Maybe they're conserving his minutes probably going to play in all five games. |
| 2:22.0 | Maybe they're conserving his minutes lately to get ready for the five-game week. Maybe they're going to turn him loose this week. |
| 2:25.3 | I'm kidding. |
