So we're going to get in and talk about those six games. We're going to look at ways to make, we'll get a benefit for your team via the schedule. We'll look at streaming options as well. Let's take a look at what the actual games are here. Like I said, six games on, no early start, which is a W. We've got the regular 7pm Eastern start, and that first game is the, let me double check, because I've got the wrong thing up on my screen. The Cavs and the Paces is the first game. We've got another 7pm Eastern game, which is the Magic and the Wizards. We love the Mystical Bowl. That's in Washington. Next, we don't have any 7.30 p.m. starts, but we do have some 8 p.m. starts. Spurs and Grizzlies at 8 p.m. Eastern, heat at wolves at 8 p.m. |
| 1:48.4 | Eastern. Lakers and Pelicans at 8 p.m. Eastern. Then you can go and have a snooze. |
| 1:54.9 | So there's a three-hour gap while we wait for the 8 p.m. Pacific tip game, which is the Mavericks and the King. |
| 2:01.9 | Surely, I'd love to know from MBC whether this time zone thing, this new time slot, is working, |
| 2:07.9 | because it's bloody annoying. |
| 2:09.7 | I just want to know whether it's working, and I hope to God that it is not, |
| 2:12.8 | so we go back to the latest start being a 7pm Pacific tip. |
| 2:16.3 | But, I don't know. I hope. Let's look at the games. First one, Cavs Paces. We did get some extra news on this one just now. Don Mitchell is resting. Hmm. Larry Nance is out. Isaiah Jackson is out. Dean Wade and Jared Allen are both questionable. Donovan Mitchell gettingael getting a rest in this one is important. Now the paces are the worst team in |
| 2:36.3 | the NBA. They just waved Tony Bradley as well so all of you Micah Potter, Potter, |
| 2:42.1 | believers, you get a little bit of something extra there. Again, still don't trust it |
| 2:46.1 | because Huff's still there, Jackson's still there. Random NBA center who's been floating around on waiver wires that can come in at any point in sign. Where is Hassan Whiteside when you need him? Where is the Roy Hibbert reunion? Honestly, you just don't know what's going to happen with this team. But at the moment, Jackson is out. Alan's questionable for Cleveland. Don Mitchell is out. Dean Wade is also questionable and obviously having |
| 3:08.0 | Alan and Wade questionable and not knowing the statuses will impact guys like Merrill, Tyson, |
| 3:12.9 | Hunter, Craig Porter, all those players. The mystical ball, the mad magic and the wizards. |
| 3:21.0 | Injury wise in this one, Jalen Suggs is officially doubtful, so he's not going to play, but that's better than just being ruled out. Franz Wagner is out, Kishuan George is out. Corey Kispert is also out. So we've got some opportunities there, two wings slash forward players for the Wizards, and then the standard outs there for the magic. But these guys have been out for a period of time. |
| 3:59.0 | So we've got a decent idea of what they're going to do. Trey Johnson's probably going to start. Bill Al gets an opportunity. Justin Champany might get more minutes, but we also saw last game, the Wizards got smashed. And that didn't really pan out the way we wanted it to. The Spurs and the Grizzlies. We don't have the update. Now for the Grizzlies, Victor Weniamer is questionable for San Antonio. |
| 4:49.7 | It is the first of a back-to-back for them, though, and the first of two sets of back-to-backs this week. So we don't expect that Wimby plays in four games, probably only two, to be honest. But Vassal remains out, and then the question marks are going to be in Memphis. Demetrius Mor missed the last game. I'll put him questionable. Sedge a coward got injured in the last game. I'll put him doubtful here. Unless we just got an update, did we... No, we didn't. All right, I was just checking. No updates there. And then Vince Williams has been out for like two weeks or so. I don't know if he's playing. he's playing. On The Wizards, I should have mentioned, because I know that some of you'll ask this, there was a report from Mark Stein that the Washington Wizards have emerged as a potential suitor for Trey Young. And I'll tell you what right now. I don't care. I don't care. What do I do from a fantasy perspective? Like, nothing. Do I do anything from a wizard's perspective on Bill Al or Trey Johnson or C.J. McCompton? No, I don't do anything. All of this stuff |
| 4:54.9 | is just words. It's just noise. It's just discussion. It's just slop. No offense to Mark Stein. |
| 5:00.0 | Really good reporter. But I don't care. Don't let this make any impact on your fantasy decisions. |
| 5:06.2 | Because when multiple variables get introduced, Trey Young might be trade, he might not be. |
| 5:11.1 | It might be to the Wizards, it might not be. It might be for C.J. McCollum, might not be for |
