favorite team lock on.com you get all the information in a nice neat little package every day across at locked on.com sign up for your favorite teams newsletter into week six the schedule this is Thanksgiving week obviously so yeah get ready to be thankful and then also we start to head towards the NBA cup winess which really takes hold in week eight and again a pre-warning for those of you in Yahoo leagues unless something has changed and they have adjusted the schedule mid-season you are going to be in for maybe a rude awakening maybe you’re aware of it but you’re going to be in for a combined week seven week eight meaning teams play six games or so and then your week 89 will have two games the NBA’s also changed it up a little bit last season there were multiple days with zero games on um this season there will not be there’s one one day I believe with zero games on across that NBA cup pu but we’ll get to that when we get to it which is isn’t now I just wanted to pre-warn you guys so that when it does when it does come you’re not going to be uh hopefully hopefully you’re not going to be too surprised let’s look at the schedule though for week six because this is a like I said it is Thanksgiving week so that changes things a little bit so interestingly enough like last week week five the week that we’re currently still in we didn’t have many games played this week week six where there’s a day with zero games on we’ve actually got more total games across the week even though we’re only playing six days so schedule makers whatever the reverses have cooked that’s what you did nine games on Monday five games on Tuesday 14 games on Wednesday shout out to Wednesday every team apart from Boston and Milwaukee play on Wednesday Thanksgiving has zero games on I think in the past which I I will give credit for in the past the day after Thanksgiving um the schedule makers have gone ham as well and they’ve played like 13 or 14 games on that day but this year we don’t we’ve only got uh 10 on Friday five on Saturday 10 on Sunday so very busy end the week but just a very busy week in general because there is that Zero game day in the middle but you know I don’t know why we packed so many games into this week when we didn’t have games like that last week okay whatever who cares um it’s not changing Josh so don’t worry about it so what do we got we got 18 teams that play four games this week 18 teams playing four games that’s it’s not what we had last week I’m not going to get over it 18 teams play four games Atlanta Brooklyn Charlotte Dallas Detroit Indiana the Clippers the Lakers Memphis Miami New Orleans New York Oklahoma City Orlando Portland Sacramento Toronto Utah if you are watching this on YouTube you can see it up on the screen in front of you if not you can go to boner.com and check out our schedule grid and schedule analyzer to see how it all plays out for the week but that’s the list up there um there are 10 teams playing three games Boston Chicago Cleveland Denver gold Golden State Houston Minnesota Phoenix San Antonio and Washington and then two teams with two games Milwaukee and Philadelphia and honestly for Philadelphia this is the perfect time for that given that we’ve got injuries to both Paul George and Joel embiid although I’m pretty sure this is not going to be the last time that I tell you that Joel embiid is injured this season and there is a very very clear reason why I did not draft him anywhere and I told you guys I would not touch him in round one at all and I didn’t care that it was pick eight or pick nine and you got to take the upside I didn’t want I told you why and I told you why I wouldn’t touch Kawai and these are very very so far unfortunately coming true that’s not a good sentence but yeah that’s where we’re at so like you can see you got 28 teams playing four or three games and this is where the two game teams from a a matchup or or a weekly perspective it’s worse last week we had the bulk of the teams playing three games so a two- game team was disadvantaged but not quite as much this week 18 teams play four games so a two game week is really quite bad it really does push those players down the board and we’ll talk about weekly leagues later but of course if you’re in a daily Changers League games played are important but not as much it’s not as important as being able to find the guys to add on the right dat cuz that’s really what we’re talking about you’re going to play your studs and yeah it’s not great if you your team is build around jiannis and lard for example or you got a tyus maxi and you got two games out of those guys that’s not ideal um but yeah that it’s more about when the games happen for these four versus um three game teams that we need to that we need to pay more attention to let’s take a look at how the quality games play out now for the week when we when we’re looking at at week six um it it’s relatively straightforward usually my cut off is nine games or fewer constitutes a quality game day so we’ve got three days that fall under that um designation Monday with nine games on Tuesday with five Saturday with five Wednesday zero chance it’s a 14 game day and the other two which could happen a Friday and Sunday with 10 games on each they might be streaming days they might not be streaming days that’s going to depend entirely on the makeup of your roster again I use nine or fewer as a good cut off the majority of the time if there’s nine games on you will be able to add someone and find an active roster spot 10 it’s probably less less often or or less than the majority of times you will be able to find an active rer you still be able to do it on some days so pay attention to that and how that looks on your particular roster and this of course goes for leagues that are 10 starters three bench 10 starters for bench if your situation is different if you have no bench obviously who cares you don’t you’re just starting everyone every day but if you go like 12 and three or if you go seven and seven all right the definition of quality games and what days are streamable does change for you guys so there are a bunch of teams that do have two quality games no one’s got three this week no one plays on Monday Tuesday Saturday because Monday and oh Tuesday is a NBA cup day and no one goes the back to back into that so the teams that have the two quality games we’ve got Atlanta Charlotte Dallas Detroit Utah Golden State Phoenix Washington and Milwaukee and that’s Milwaukee two game week both on low volume days both on low volume days which is you know obviously much better than a two- game week for Philadelphia Cleveland on the other hand do not play a single quality game Cleveland do not say it again Cleveland do not play on any of those low volume days the only team during the week that does that so I I’ll just mention the name now like or any of these names Caris lever or maybe you’re looking at milk or maybe it’s the return of Max stru which is coming this week or it’s Sam Merill or somebody like that um where you’re looking at your what is are they useful to grab you stru and Levert and Jerome you probably wouldn’t play them like you might that’s again that’s going to depend but Cleveland plays on Tuesday with five uh sorry no they don’t they don’t play Tu my bad what am I talking about um that was that’s last week’s schedule this week’s schedule Cleveland plays on if I just find them their name uh they got three games and they play on Wednesday with 14 games on Friday with 10 games and Sunday with 10 so have a look whether it makes sense for you to have any of those guys would you use them Friday Sunday and would you rush to pick up a fringe player like Levert or or streu or some or Jerome and then sit him for zero play them for zero games during the week that doesn’t seem like it would be the best use of resources if we’re going to get um you get streamy which we are how do we utilize this week in the Stream Zone to to you take advantage of this well given that there’s only three quality games three quality game days Monday Tuesday Saturday and we don’t have anyone playing three quality games this is again a week where using your ads is more beneficial for stashing longer term speculative sort of moves or single game streams there’s only 3 days you can’t use someone you can’t use one player on every day so you can add someone on Monday you can get a guy that plays Tuesday and Saturday which is either Phoenix Utah Washington so the Tuesday Saturday grouping remembering that Wednesday is 14 Thursday is zero Friday is 10 so you might not stream for 3 days in a row so you can get a phoenix Utah Washington player that would go Tuesday Saturday and then you’ve got two ads left to just take flyers on guys or or to see what happens on your Friday and Sunday depending on how your individual roster situation shakes out which of course I don’t know now I I will get this is actually a good time to do this I’ll get these questions all the time and go well you know you you and this also another thing for today’s games which haven’t happened yet I my projections were pretty high on Lindy Waters yesterday Friday’s games Lindy Waters was terrible he did still St but he was terrible he had zero points mind you the three games before I think he had two threes two threes two threes and three strike games and he had a three steal game and a one Steel game hence why I thought if he plays 24 minutes there’s value there but it bombed yesterday terribly and I had him as a really good stream for Saturdays I think I had him as like one of the best streams of the day available but it might be terrible again but someone there’ll be people who and this this might have played you it might not who’ll be like I added Lindy Waters o over this guy whoever it was um uh ium whatever right that’s what someone said to me the reason I didn’t include iumer was a top category League streamer is because the percentage roster cut off that I use which for 10 team is a 65 Dum was sitting at like 70% so I didn’t include him on that list which is where all this stuff is hard so if I come out and say this guy is the stream of the day here that doesn’t like I I don’t know the individual makeup of your league I have no way of knowing that and this is not for me me telling you oh yeah like yeah oh well that’s why I said Lindy W like there was it like he he was bad yesterday he might be about get today it might turn out to be a terrible pick and I I’ll cop that like that’s that could be bad and that’s what happens on game to game variant stuff we try and base it on what has happened in the past but stuff can come literally out of nowhere and blow us away and he might be absolutely useless but it is very important that when I say this guy is a stream or whatever it’s not like I don’t know who is available in your league I I literally don’t know so I’m trying to do cut offs in these situations that covers a lot of things but be very cautious I that you don’t just blindly look at that when there might be other players on those lists who are available for you I I can’t know that I can’t say well in your league this is this guy and then for someone else go well you know wear the double onx platinum diamond titanium type players um those guys were gone actually back in 1998 before they were even born that’s that’s hard to do and I I don’t know the best way around that obviously buw monster.com where you can import all your league and every day you can see the projections and see who’s available and see who’s best in your league that’s obviously the best way of doing that but I I can’t individualize that for everybody so while that’s not it’s a little bit of a disclaimer it’s more just to to alert you guys that when I talk about these individual things there might be someone who sits there and on my Roster number is 80% rostered according to our basketball monster Roster number he might be sitting at 30 on yaho but Yahoo’s numbers are all over the shop there’s like 50% inactive leaves I I don’t know that that me not putting them at the top of this list is not because I don’t think that they’re better it’s because the cut off that I’ve used on these on these shows doesn’t put them into that position I hope that makes sense and I hope that gives you just a little bit more context around it we’re going to come back and we’re going to look at all the schedule quirks and backto backs and weekly League stuff in a sec but today’s episode it is of course brought to you by my friends over at skims who wants to talk about my my jocks who wants to listen to me talk about underwear well you’re here because let’s be fair the vast vast majority of us wear them and sometimes we wear ones that are uncomfortable and as blos sometimes we’ll get a pairing of man these are the best it’s so comfortable the fit it’s great the material is great it’s not itching us and then we wear them we wear them and we wear them until they disappear until they die until they there’s holes in them right we will do that skims the two pairs that I got unbelievable I love it the materials there’s C ones but there’s also that like that stretchy sort of fabric that you find inside of running shorts those ones there is different lengths there’s different cuts boxes box of briefs the old high cut Jock It’s all there different colors different cuts different materials basically whatever you’re looking for these are some of the most comfortable underwear pairs that you will ever find I’m telling you like it’s it’s so like I love my SKS I’ve only got two pairs and I want to get some more because they are the ones that yeah I’m always searching it’s laundry comes out here we go let’s get these ones on cuz it is uncomfortable and you know I sit in chair talking to a camera all day and having Comfort that’s pretty important it’s important for me I’m hoping it’s important for you as well so shop skims men’s at skims.com loock NBA and let them know that we sent you after you place your order you select podcast in the survey and select our show in the drop down menu that follows and if you’re also looking for perfect gifts for the whole family skims just launched their biggest holiday shop ever it’s also available at skims.com lockon NBA okay let’s let’s get back into the the schedule now let’s let’s take a look at some scheduling quirks what is weird this week across the NBA in week six there’s always going to be something that’s a little bit strange and things that we pay attention to or need to know that across the weekend in week six so Saturday Sunday Chicago and Minnesota are off so when you are looking at an IOD dumu replacing Patrick Williams or you’re streaming at Jaylen Smith maybe or your deeper leagues and you’re you’re chucking your Onyx Diamond level Dal and Terry’s out there then they don’t play on the weekend Chicago the same with maybe nil Alexander Walker stream or maybe you’re holding Dante venzo and he still does nothing weekend off Chicago Minnesota Philadelphia a two- game team we talked about already doesn’t play Monday or Tuesday so their first game is on Wednesday so any Fringe Sixers guys UB Martin um you have a s probably not going to be worth it also gives that extra time for embiid and Paul George to maybe return which we just don’t know about yet I say here that there are teams with three games straight and let me really clear about this they don’t play back to back to back but what they do play is because there is a day with zero games on three consecutive NBA game days these teams play so Tuesday through to Friday so that means they play Tuesday Wednesday Friday it’s Chicago it’s the Lakers Miami and Minnesota which for our purposes is three three days in a row so if you’re adding those guys obviously on Wednesday with 14 games that player needs to be good enough to start for you but Chicago the Lakers Miami and Minnesota play 3 days in a row if you go Wednesday through to Saturday which of course incorporates Thursday with the zero so we’re talking Wednesday Friday Saturday which in normal parin is a three game in four night but because there’s a zero game in the middle you don’t have a game a day where that player sits you’re talking Atlanta Charlotte Detroit play three games in a row Wednesday through Saturday we’ve also got a um a five night period where there’s a team that plays one game and that’s starting on Sunday now obviously Sunday to Friday which I’ve got marked there is six days but one of them is not a game day it’s Thursday but the Bucks play one game across five game nights one game when that’s on Tuesday so you’re maybe you’re trying a Gary Trent who looks to be sort of back to stream level or an AJ Green or God forbid an Andre Jackson or even a Bobby Porter you got one game in a five game night period there which makes it obviously a little bit harder let’s take a look at the three game in four night parts of the schedule understanding again that we’re talk I’m going to talk game nights here because I think that is more important Sunday to Wednesday quite a bit so if we’re ending week five heading into week six we’ got Brooklyn Dallas Indiana the Clippers Miami Minnesota Sacramento Toronto and Washington Monday through to to Friday 5 days but actually four days basically like not basically over half of the NBA teams play three games between Monday and Friday the teams that don’t this is different here I’m saying the teams that don’t play three games there Boston Cleveland Dallas Denver Golden State Houston Phoenix San Antonio Utah Washington Milwaukee and Philadelphia they do not play three games in four nights between Monday Friday everyone else does Tuesday to Saturday we’ve got Atlanta Charlotte Chicago Detroit the Lakers Miami Minnesota Phoenix Utah and Washington they do play three games in four nights Tuesday to Saturday and then to end the week Wednesday to Sunday four game nights between Wednesday and Sunday every team plays three games except for Chicago Denver Golden State Houston Minnesota Philadelphia Phoenix San Antonio and Washington everyone else plays three games between Wednesday and Sunday those teams that I just read out do not play three games between Wednesday and Sunday let’s look at there are you know there are teams here and a few of them that play three games sorry four games in five game nights four games in five game nights Sunday leading into Friday we’ve got Brooklyn Indiana the Clippers Miami Minnesota Sacramento Toronto so early early boost for those guys Monday through to Saturday the all the asteris is here means that like of course that’s not actually five nights but it’s five game nights because Thursday is a zero day Monday through to Saturday Atlanta Charlotte Detroit four games five nights and then Tuesday through to Sunday to end the week you got the Lakers Miami and Utah so four games five nights for Miami the Lakers and Utah to end the week which again is important we also have um over this time frame you know begin which we’re we’re condensing things in we have got five game in seven nights seven game nights so Sunday of week 5 through to Sunday of week six you have got seven teams that play five games on only seven game nights Brooklyn Dallas Indiana the Clippers Miami Sacramento Toronto so this is It’s really five in eight but of course one of them everyone off so you don’t lose that hey this guy’s sitting While others are playing so Brooklyn Dallas Indiana the Clippers Miami Sacramento Toronto Sunday to Sunday and if we do Monday to begin week six through to Monday to begin week seven there are five teams that have that combination Atlanta Brooklyn the Lakers Miami and New Orleans and you will see Brooklyn’s name mentioned in both of those you will see Miami’s name mentioned in both of those so big busy busy runs here for both of those teams uh Brooklyn and Miami if we do six games in eight nights which again is a six in N real life but six in eight actual game nights which is an incredibly busy schedule and that’s the two teams I just mentioned Sunday of week five into Monday of week seven incorporating all of week six it’s Brooklyn Miami six games eight game nights Brooklyn and Miami very busy portion of the schedule pretty sure Jimmy will be going Full Tilt for all of that let’s look at how the backto backs shake out there are there are quite a few to begin the week so when we do the streaming show later on for Sunday consider that the Sunday Monday can give you a bonus game if you pick those players Boston Brooklyn Dallas Indiana the Clippers Sacramento and Toronto play on Sunday and Monday this week so Boston obviously you’re going to have an Al Horford rest in one of those games Brooklyn you’re going to have a Ben Simmons rest in one of those games maybe even a Nick Claxton as comes back from that back problem that he SE is going to have to manage for a while the Clippers no one really there we need to look at same with Sacramento or same with Toronto Tuesday to Wednesday is a back-to-back technically well it’s not technically it’s literally a a back-to-back but with 14 games on Wednesday harder to get value there but these teams all do that Chicago Houston the Lakers Miami Minnesota Phoenix San Antonio Utah and Washington with nobody playing on Thursday we can look at the Wednesday Friday but that’s so many teams man it’s it’s you’re going to be so full up on those days that is basically everyone plays on on Wednesday and then you got 10 more teams playing 10 more games on Friday so 20 teams on Friday it’s just a bulk schedule if you have streaming ability on Friday there are a few teams that play Tuesday and Friday which you can ignore the streaming value on Wednesday because there’s so many teams playing so Chicago the Lakers Miami Minnesota play Tuesday and on Friday if you’ve got that ability to stream through on a Friday and then the the key one that you want to look at which we talked about in the Stream Zone earlier today where we’re talking about Tuesday through to Saturday a five game Tuesday into a five game Saturday it’s Phoenix Utah and Washington if we talk friday into Saturday um with no Thursday Friday um obviously no games on Thursday uh Friday Saturday it’s Atlanta Charlotte Detroit and then weekend back toback which I think we had these two teams playing a weekend back toback two weeks ago uh Dallas and Utah have that weekend um weekend back toback they are the only so the only two yeah they are the only two teams that have that back toback there we’re going to come back now and give you some updates on injuries and weekly streaming stuff but today’s episode is brought to you by fanuel Sports get ready to tackle all that NFL

time okay so we’ve gone through a lot of those um those schedule quirks now now it’s time for us to look at where we sit with some injuries and who may play and who’s likely out for the entire week we have got some I guess somewhat positive updates for some players across here these are the guys that I’m not expecting to play during the week Kyle Lowry not that that really matters but you his absence does mean that some other deeper stuff opens for other players but doesn’t really matter also Jared McCain cooking at the moment I do think the shooting is going to come down I do but I’m actually pretty confident that minutes will hold and obviously with embiid and George and embiid sorry rooted I I I think rooted like rooted I would not buy low for him I would not do anything with him like I would not wouldn’t and had that I went back to look when I first started talking about this it was like the 1st of June I think or 4th of June where he had a show on the Sixers in their season recap show I think it was and I said I’m not touching him in the first round I didn’t realize i’ went that hard that early but I did there you go um yeah so Kyle lry bu bogdanovich we haven’t seen him yet cool Zion Williamson his hamstrings are a significant problem and you these reports that he’s going to be longer than expected I don’t even know when to expect him he literally might not play until January and honestly I I just don’t know uh um I he was healthy basically all of last season and I thought okay maybe we’re okay here but uh what third or fourth hamstring injury now to me is that’s that’s not touching now same same injury same problem same slow healing and that same injury to me is sort of not as right off here as the Kawai ID knes but it’s close Christ Pingas is going to be out but his return might come week seven maybe week eight Chad hongren out I’m just going to rule Kaw cuz like who knows like he’s just nowhere near ready it doesn’t seem and I don’t know when he plays no idea Mitchell Robinson will be out Aaron Gordon we’re expecting to remain out Jeremy soan will be out he might be back a week or two after that um Vince Williams is out Zack Edy I think will be out I guess there’s an outside chance he returns at the end of the week but I think he’s out palero is going to be out as well and then we can look at the guys where there might be returns coming from some of these players and Kelly Lin is one of them now I don’t think alen is going to have a huge impact on the guys like Barnes or purle but I do think he’ll have an impact on someone like aaji who’s been getting minutes as the backup for I think aaji is a drop anyway but Alin will hurt him even further Lonzo ball could return I don’t think he’s going to do anywhere near enough as like he comes back from the knee and then hurts his wrist and been out three weeks this is why we we we don’t want to roster him at this point uh Aaron n Smith could be returning this week which will have an impact on you know your values of a Ben sheeper probably maybe Maan probably not but we’ll see uh Max stru could return we talked about the Cavs already I don’t think that he’s a m roster player in 12 12 team leagues Chris Middleton I just don’t know they’ve only got a two game week this week so like yeah I wouldn’t feel good about activating him or anything like that uh Luca donic with his wrist maybe at the end of the week they said about a week which will put him towards the they got a back toback Saturday Sunday to end the week as we just talked about so maybe Luca is able to return there the Charlotte centers I’m just going to put them here because I don’t know BD andr Nick Richards and Mark Williams I am unsure whether they return I would say the start of the week is probably not likely but like maybe the weekend and this just keeps going and going and going I’ve got the three Pelicans guys here I’m very certain that CJ McCullum is going to be back I am very certain that Deonte Mur I think CJ’s going to be back for the start of the week I think Deonte might be back middle of the week and Herb Jones might be back the end of the week but I think they’re all coming back so any of your um Alfred pton or uh BJ Boston who was really good Off the Bench I think that’s going like adding those three guys back is going to kill those guys I’m pretty sure almost certain we get AAR Thompson back in some capacity what his minutes and roll is I don’t know but I’m pretty certain he’s going to be returning um Deon Vel I just don’t know n saus not great missed like three in a row here uh maybe he’s back I’m not sure Paul George and Joel embiid that again they’ve only got the two games and the first game is a Wednesday I would be pretty surprised if they played on Wednesday to be honest because you take that one off and then they get that final game on I believe it’s Saturday is their second game of the week and that would help them get that um a little bit of a boost there just extra bit of rest I’m pretty sure that they will sit Wednesday although I don’t know but I think we’ll get them back for at least one game Norman power with his hamstring maybe middle to end of the week Malik monk has been already upgraded to quell so very certain he’ll be back and Andrew nard could be returning he also might not be we don’t know about Patrick Williams and his foot injury so he’s uncertain DeAndre Eon in his finger Bru I don’t know he keeps being listed out for so we have to have some doubt about him returning scoot Henderson had a thigh injury then apparently got into a car accident and has a back sprain so like okay um he’s it’s I don’t think you can hold scoot Henderson in 12 team leagues although again you can put him in your now miles Bridges is probably back towards the end of the week with that aggravation of his knee bone bruise I would I think there’s a chance he misses the entire week but that gives a little boost to Grant Williams and mad B Kate Cunningham I don’t don’t really have an update on that like they’ve given us what the injury is called but no time frame on it I would say there’s a decent chance he misses the week jar has been upgraded to doubtful and the gries have been doing doubtful and then questionable and then return so I I think J might be back next week and that brings us back to that point that I’ve been belaboring about Scotti Pippen and his long-term value which I think is going to be dead pretty soon but we’ll find out um let’s talk about weekly leagues now to finish off the show so if you’re in a league where you can change the lineup once per week that is what a weekly league is let’s talk about some guys who might be addable so we are looking usually for bulk volume in a week like this some guys like Grant Williams who gets a boost because Williams Richards and bridges all might miss the week that’s Mark Williams might miss the entire week so Grant Williams has an opportunity and they’ve got four games the Kings have four games Malik monk is likely to return has he been good this season has it been frustrating yes same with Kevin herder but four games Kevin herder might get one good one he might have two good ones he might have two terrible ones we saw how bad he was yesterday but there’s enough there L Dort and the Thunder Dort the last time we saw him on Wednesday Dreadful absolutely useless and then he hasn’t played since but again it’s bulk four games I don’t know if Caruso plays I know chat won’t but four games for a starter is who’s had some good moments this season I don’t mind it it could blow up in your face easily same with hom HZ who’s been bad all season but he’s got four games this week Brandon Clark I don’t think Zack Ed plays Brandon Clark starter 19 minutes a day he can have good field goals good free throws sometimes he’s his numbers are so weird he hasn’t barely blocked a shot but he still ready through the roof Brandon Clark but as a four game starter is’s a little bit there in category leagues a little bit it’s not exciting or anything like that and then we look at the two two game teams who can we start in a standard sort of format jannis two games obviously lard I actually think it’s sort of borderline but you probably would start Dame with two games and and Maxi and lard around the same spot now now if we knew that embiid and George were out for both games during the week Maxi becomes much more secure than that but remember tus Maxi is returning from his own injury and his minutes have not been high he played what 20 minutes and 28 minutes in the first two games so maybe he’s back playing 37 by week six but he might not be and he had some real shooting woses earlier in the season when George and embiid were out so I don’t know whether that is a thing for this week it might be I don’t know but I would still probably take the risk on Maxi for this upcoming week with two games I wouldn’t start like uh Jared McCain or anyone in that spot I wouldn’t start Brook Lopez for Milwaukee and that is what I feel like was a really like big and busy week six preview for Fantasy Basketball you know what
