basketball [Music] basketball it’s time to strap in and get ready the Insight NBA team is in the arena bringing you the ultimate play-by-play on who’s hot and who’s not to help you win your leagues and dominate your mates you’re now hooping with your host matd G skdy and mie for the Insight NBA show [Applause] [Music] good everyone mat G here for the inside NBA show flying solo battling the weather and a whole bunch of other gear because you know what injuries do happen and sickness I I was going to take the game off but no I’m here and we’re going to go over all of the injuries for week seven and how it’s shapen up to impact your fantasy week have a little bit of look over week six and what’s happened there because of those injuries and also just see what we can make of the schedule for week seven now week seven is a bit of a wacky one let me preface this with saying this is across the main three we’ve got Yahoo we’ve got ESPN and fan track so shout out to CBS and Underdog and the rest but we know these are the three major formats now there is some shenanigans that happen across different formats which weeks are in which weeks are out fan tracks is more closely aligned ESPN and fan tracks this week are normal however Yahoo because of the NBA cup has actually back that in there so it’s a combined two weeks on Yahoo unless your commissioner has unset that but for the most part this is a two we week seven preview for Yahoo so we’re going to focus on the first part of week seven for this one because the big thing to say is this it doesn’t change your amount of ads so if your Commissioners set up your league and that your standard amount of ads is four or five you now have to be very judicious with when you use them you don’t want to blow your load in the first few games and thinking about it and then oh yeah I’m looking pretty you suffer some injuries you need to Bene some guys because of that Stu in an I bring some guys in but you can’t because you’ve used those IL or those IR spots up you can’t bring people into your team because you’ve used your maximum amount of waiver ads for the week if it’s four or five maybe you have unlimited and you’re lucky but if you don’t this is something you really want to pay attention to in your Yahoo settings for this week being week seven to make the most of it which actually means the end of week six is important and we’re going to come to that in a second but before we do let’s go over the injuries throughout the league see how they implicate us from week six and what we can do with them moving into week seven yeah let’s start up at the ATL this week and Bogdan bogdanovich missed the game on Saturday because of his injury management remembering the backto backs and we’ll touch on the Hawks with those later on in the show he is probably being left left out of most of them and this is when DeAndre Hunter usually erupts for Sunday KP true holiday Derek white and Al haford now they’re all questionable for Sunday uh for the game against the Cavaliers I really want to watch this Cavaliers game I I really want to see this game I don’t want to see it with KP I want to see it with Darius Garland hitting some shots not being like 100 from the field this is circled on my calendar is one of the absolute muchat games and I hope it’s not an absolute tear away from the Celtics and then a big makeup I hope it’s close from start to finish and I want to see these teams healthy for it in Brooklyn Dorian finny Smith he’s been out for Sunday but he’s an interesting one to watch working on into week seven in Charlotte we know lamelo ball he’s got a car straight now that’s going to keep him Seline for a couple of weeks there uh the big guy that we could have picked up was Trey man but he’s been out with the disc irritation so he’s out for a couple of weeks so it’s me here that obviously the other night against New York it was a one point uh one point loss three from 10 now we look at the field goal percentage for meich and be like ah Jesus he hurts but but the rebounds are nice we know he’s there to be a playmaker and a facilitator in this team that’s what he does best so we are looking to bring him in when we need to so if you have lamelo this is the guy that you’re got to pick up for the next couple of week which really is a shame because it was all all signals are pointing to it being Trey man season alas it is not and and Miles Bridges he’s been silon on the on the side as well he’s injury big news though Mark Williams and Nick Richards were sent to the G League G League team last week they’ve come back but they haven’t played yet it’s the Charlotte Hornets with these two blocks we never know really what’s going on if I was if you could ask a clair boy will they play basketball again and and they might have a contion just trying to figure that one out we expect them to be returning in week seven I would have pinned Richards ahead of Williams 100% but now I’m just thinking they rolled the back out there at the same time in a minute share situation to ramp them both up because it just seems like the most obvious thing there was hints they were going to return at the end of week six they haven’t they’ve held them out maybe they just hold them out until a melo’s out there for a couple of weeks and just here’s our team now at full strength with Miles being out they do need these two guys in there we can get some other value ads from the Charlotte Hornets that we’ll touch on later but they’re the main ones in Chicago it’s pretty smooth sailing over that when we’re in Cleveland Dean Wade is out for Sunday’s game with the Celtics with the spray ankle again we did want Dean Wade he generally tends to light up the Celtics to be honest Dallas Luke has been out all week he’s going to miss Sunday clay tomp Clay Thompson is suffering pler fasciitis over there as well so continue to look up for the PJ Washington experience over there and Kyrie Irving doing all that he can to help the Maverick stay afloat in uh Denver now Aaron Gordon has been practicing with the team there are rumors that he is looking to return this week return there we go there’s my best 80s hip hop impersonation but look he could be returning in week seven if he’s on your w w we pick him up we stash him I maybe the person who dropped him didn’t want to hang around for a player like Aaron Gordon but he’s an integral part of that team we we see what goes with that one and we bring him in there uh he’s doubtful for the Sunday one which means he’s questionable moving into week seven so we want to keep our eye on where he is in that League uh we’ve got in Detroit Kade Cunningham he had a hip injury he was out on Saturday but he should be right to go coming into week seven for all intents and purposes smooth sailing as well in Golden State and in the Houston Rockets who a stack deep good news for Indiana Andrew nard he is questionable for their match up nay Smith is still on the sidelines for there but it’s good to see Andrew nard making return this will hit that view uh that that value that we’ve had for TJ McConnell for the last little week as well it’s been Boyd generally they have a little bit of a minute share situation there now the big news over in Los Angeles is that Norman pal is now qu questionable on Sunday’s game which is good he had that hammy injury it’s good to see him returning into the lineup after missing I think it was seven or eight games now it’s it’s been a couple weeks and as a norm pal owner and truther this is good to see uh for that one as well Kevin Porter Jr is out so a mere copy he’ll be probably be losing that value that he’s had very very soon in Los Angeles as well the Lakers now hoston Reeves that fall was the man’s made Adam manum on the inside that’s all I can say now his question for Sunday versus the Jazz we’re going to see if he suits up and see what happens there stepping up in his uh in his Steed is probably going to be Max Christie and here’s what I’m going to touch on a little bit later on the show D’Angelo Russell is doubtful and Jackson Hayes he’s going to be missing at least two weeks probably three weeks so this is where Christian coko will probably get a few more minutes there uh over in the team because you know what Christian Wood’s still out coloo is the only big man up to support ad and he is an is Miss back to being listed as day to-day for every other game in between as per usual in Memphis Zack Ed is still out for at least another week with his ankle injury and Miami yic is going to be out on Sunday with his ankle injury as well all things considered going well in Milwaukee and Minnesota whereas in New Orleans Brandon Ingram and Jordan H Hawkins will both miss another game on Sunday moving into it uh into the week seven the Brandon Ingram situation is interesting they haven’t reached their extension talks haven’t found a suud for him yet so let’s just watch the shenanigans that happens with Brandon Ingram possibly missing games moving forward there in New York pre is still out there but we’ve had their other ads around there New York has been playing very very well so we love what’s happening in NYC Alex Caruso is also out Su looking to move into week seven though maybe we pick him up for a stream for the Thunder Gary Harris is out with a hamr injury in Orlando while in Philadelphia where where to start with their injured list just don’t touch any of them we’ve got Kayla Martin here’s missed a couple of issues D Andre Drummond the backup to a Joe alen beid has been out Jared McCain is the bright shining lineup but we’ve had Tyrese Maxi into the lineup and Paul George in the C course of the cast course of the past week which has been good to see for Philly because they have a lot of work to go for the rest of the season in Phoenix Brad Beal and nurkic missed Saturday’s game they were both engine and out with their Cal and Ankle injuries um beill I I just just want him consistent for the year he has looked really good in this lineup so I think it might be just some owners out there could be a nice little buy a low window on Brad be just it like he hasn’t been available we saw this last year and then he came back and went on a tear and I’m just getting this Deja Vu here that like is this what we’re going to see from Brad Beal this year again really really slow start and then he hits it and then he is running smooth so this is a by low window on me for all those anxious owners out there with injuries of Bradley Beal I’d be very curious to see what happens there Robert Williams is the time lord now he’s still in concussion protol DeAndre Aton returned to the lineup and had a great game the other day this is what we like to see from DeAndre Aton he was a bow cidate talking of them for a while there this could be him putting a few things together let’s see how he goes in the course of week seven because it could be sell high on DeAndre Aton by the end of week seven if he plays incredibly well Kevin herder is doubtful for Sunday’s game for the Sacramento Kings with an ankle injury as well there’s just so many ankle injuries happening in the NBA well in San Antonio Jeremy soan he is going to miss another game on Sunday with his fractioned thumb Toronto Bruce Brown Kelly o and grd Dick are all out for Sunday’s game against the Heat and Emanuel quickley is still being reviewed in about the second week of December so we will not see him back in week seven whatsoever we’ve seen in Utah Jordan Clarkson has missed the last three while Kyle flowski has missed the last four he’s been out for them so let’s continue to roll out there guys even Bryce senar in their place we know that Larry Markin missed a game and Bryce he stepped in there for the one while in Washington kyl kma he was out on Saturday with a rib injury so looking forward and moving into week seven here should be all good and accounted for that’s pretty much that in the bag for the injury wrap up acrown the league let’s get into the weekly preview he’s hting up yeah look week seven it’s an interesting one we are in the NBA cup Shenanigans as I said and look if you are in a Yahoo League again you don’t get extra ads now the only way that ever happens by the way and and someone asked me this the other day like do you ever get extra ads I’m like yeah your commissioner basically has to go in and say hey guys look it’s for two weeks and this never happens by the way so you’re really clutching at straws because it’s pretty much the same that happens at Allstar Weekend where it’s like two sets of weeks if that makes sense because the allstar break we have two weeks of action for one week of competitive fantasy play this is the same as that Yahoo handles it for the cup we know that cup games don’t count at the tail end of it for those finals at that Las Vegas uh weekend so it’s run over and it space over these two weeks so again let’s be really conscious of the ads we need to make in week seven now with that in mind it’s not a bad schedule week to start off with or to in a way we’ve got the 11 game Tuesday and the 12 game Sunday they are our two highest volume days our lowest volume days are Monday and Wednesday with four and six or respectively Thursday not bad eight Friday and Saturday seven games each there are 20 teams this week in the NBA who play four games which means there is a lot this is the weeks that we love in fantasy especially we’ve got a lot of four Gamers where the stats just look huge you’re like oh why can’t I put this up every single week you it’s because 20 teams have four games in this and when I talk week seven I’m talking explicitly in the coming seven days not not after that so let’s have a look at how it breaks down for this the Hawks the Celtics the Hornets the Bulls the Cavs the nuggets the Warriors the Pacers the Lakers and the Grizz we’ve also got the heat the Bucks the te- Wolves the pels the magic the 76ers Suns Kings Spurs and Wizards all on four games this week and if you do the 20 teams quick muff taken away that leaves 10 teams that are only playing three this week they are the Nets the Mavs the the Pistons the Rockets the clips the Knicks the Thunder Trailblazers Raptors and Jazz so if we look at the three gamers the net picks cam Thomas his engine anyway Luca could be returning that’s a boy Kade Cunningham guys like Fred Van Fleet shenon James Harden Norm pal who’s returning that’s great for him in the Knicks people who were boying their value with Jaylen Brunson and Carl Anthony towns Shay GIS Alexander Jaylen Williams owners Anthony Simons dare I say it he’s been struggling shad and sharp DeAndre DeAndre a owners Scotty Barnes owners Larry Mark and owners these are the guys who are going to be like yep I’ve got it sorted and if you own a lot of these guys and your opponents are owning the four game a week guys you’re already behind the eightball a little bit so this is where we want to be very conscious of our streams and again it’s a good week to do it for the most part the the biggest hits here are the Tuesday 11 and the Sunday being the 12 so this is where when we’re putting it together like oh jeez yeah I’ve got a great team I love my fantasy team but yeah your fantasy team is built around Jaylen Williams shade Alexander you might have Heavens forbid you’ve got Nick Claxton in there Carl Anthony towns you’ve you’ve had some really good picks up the top these guys are getting three games your opponent meanwhile is rolling out guys like Donovan Mitchell against you or who has a really good week they’ve got like a yic and Donovan Mitchell to playay or Donovan Mitchell and G and Jen Allen they’ve just got a whole bunch of Cavaliers or yic is in there or Anthony Davis and LeBron James Ted up on the same and you got these guys and already there’s eight games to your six for really good contributors across the fantasy board so this is in this week where we’ve got to be really strategic about it because it’s over two weeks we don’t freak out too much we’ve got the tail end of it in Yahoo leagues we don’t want to jump the gun as I said and be preemptive just going ad ad ad ad ad because then you burned them your opponent can just be like yeah I’m just going to sit back I see what you’re doing n you don’t know we don’t want that we don’t want that we want to manage this very very well so let’s see what we can pick up a little bit of traction here now heading Sunday in week six into Monday we’ve got the Celtics the Nets the Lakers the Heat and the pels this is really really good because the Lakers are one of those teams that actually play on those low volume days and we can get some strategic ads here so let’s talk about these ones let’s go to the Quality games here on the low volume Monday and Wednesday you’ve got the Hawks the Celtics again who are backing into this week like the Nets so you got the Celtics the Nets the Lakers the Heat and the te- Wolves these guys play on Monday and Wednesday this is really important not only see look you wouldn’t add an Al Horford his questionable doesn’t play back-to-backs so we put Big Al out KP is not going to probably play both backto backs this is where guys like Luke cornet or even you know someone else in the team has to step up here I like hous this week I’ll go over my ads there you know like we’re looking at Xavier Tilman you know we’re looking at these other guys especially in Boston who we can get value for at the end of the Sunday if week six move them into the Monday we don’t have to do anything if you look at it as well we’ve got probably most of our spots filled up on the Tuesday for the 11 or we just drop our other worst player and we can bring one in but with the low volume four and the low volume six on Monday to Wednesday these guys for quality of Target foral games I like the Hawks we’ve got some moves there the Nets we can bring some guys in there the Heat or the te- wolves and this is really good for our Sunday if we’re struggling for that win we we could bring in like a God forbid pton Pritchards available on your W better a Sam Hower get some extra points get some extra threes if we’re chasing in there the Lakers you know we know that Max Christie could possibly get some extra minutes there we know that you know cam reddish is wining some steals possibly he’s been getting red out there as a Defender especially with D’Angelo Russell being doubtful for that Sunday game if he’s doubtful for that Sunday game he’s going to be questionable for Monday this is where these fringey players really start to become a bit of an asset for us and we can make the most use out of them in the heat Heyward High Smith he’s been get starting for these guys Terry Rosier has been dropped in leagues because he’s been woeful but yeah we give Scary Terry a go because he is Scary Terry and we know that he’s a minute pop off coming off the bench from everything else and he’s probably a really good six-man for the heat at the end of the day probably a little bit better there than their St and so that’s where we can kind of then look over the course of the week and just see where we’re going to move next so let’s go over that Sunday into Monday we’ve got the Celtics the Nets the Lakers the Heat and the pels they rolls into our Monday Tuesday back-to-backs which there are none and that’s the great asset about bringing these guys in for the last game of the Sunday we don’t have to worry then about resting them on the next day or whatever we know we’re going to get them on that back-to-back set it’s it’s important that we then free up that Tuesday because it’s no back toback because the Tuesday to Wednesday it’s a bit harder now there’s Pistons Pacers Clippers bucks magic and 76ers we’re going to see what happens with nor pal like we said Amir coffee gets dropped off at the car park or maybe he doesn’t play the the back-to-back set because he’s coming back from injury right now and they want to take it easy and and we hold on to coffee and see which game that he plays we’ve got guys like kavus Coral pop kcp has been playing well lately out of nowhere boom a 20-point game after being quite average being their on ball Defender go-to guy with Jaylen Suggs and working well but in fantasy wasn’t the asset we wanted him a couple of really great games for kcp over the course of the last week we then move into Wednesday and Thursday where there is no back-to-backs and on Thursday and Friday we’re looking at the Bulls the Warriors the Kings and the Spurs here and there’s some value to be added in here we’re looking at guys like AO Duma who you can see up on the board right there we’ve got the Warriors now look that is by committee over there we could be looking at anyone from Paul or you know with the Kings we’ve got guys like Jay K who’s just popped up filling in for demand Rosen does that continue in the Spurs I am loving guys like Shan pagy and Stefon Castle they’ve been really really solid and dependable for these guys as well over the years uh over the year Friday and Saturday look for me it really is Sam Hower I don’t think pton Pritchard is around in a lot of wires and again because it’s the Celtics we’re looking at the Friday and the Saturday back toback here and we know that we’re not going to see probably C we’re not going to see KP and Al Horford either playing the same game or if they playing the same game they miss out this is what opens up value for Luke cornet it opens up value for Xavier Tilman but the smart play for the Celtics coaching wise will probably be look we’re going to play cornette and tman off the bench on Friday and Saturday Friday we’re going to start KP Saturday we’ll start Al Horford and that’s the probably the most likely scenario for the Celtics Saturday Sunday the Hornets the Cavs the nuggets the Grizz the Heat and the pels as well as the Suns and the Wizards now again the Sunday is the really big one and even funnily enough with that there are no backto backs then verging we love to finish and start strong the week there are no back-to-backs next Sunday moving into Monday so we can literally make the most of the streams that we want to for that very final day of play which is a 12 gamer now if you don’t have any roster spot that’s where you do drop off your worst guy and you do bring them on now looking at the course of the week look let’s be honest the best days is here to Target on Monday and Wednesday now these are the low volume Day games again we can then fill in and we can work some magic separately on Thursday Friday and Saturday but again in Yahoo leagues where this just counts as four ads or five ads over the course of two weeks we’ve got to play it really Safe and Smart funnily enough about as safe and smart is using ifs 15 right now on your standard squeeze locker code because it Stacks the codes stack with their whole Black Friday sale get on there I’m struggling under the weather but I’ve got my lemon honey tea I literally this is the worst thing I’ve ever had in here not the worst thing it’s probably the best thing but my lemon honey tea out of my 4 in one I love it sweet and tart can’t feel my face after I take a sip out of it but the discount stack you want to get onto it the best campers in the world you can have your coffee out of it you can have your beers out of it it’s a cooler you shove your stubby into it it’s take away on your road trips the 4 in1 is an elite Christmas present and you get an extra 15% off the prices already which are crazy for the Black Friday sales in Cyber Monday just by using promo code if fs15 you want to make sure you jump on and log into that one now like I said the best ads for the week for me I do want to Target Monday and Wednesday and so this is who I’m looking at going back over those low volume gays these are the guys that we sit down we can look at now we can look at the Hawks guys s Celtics Nets Lakers heat and tea wolves guys and the guys that I pulled out for this one that I want to have a look at is Rish he’s getting a lot of burn now he can hurt your field goal percentage but I like him a lot and available on a lot of wires the Atlanta Hawks I like Hower and cornette as I said Tilman probably to a lesser extent with their back-to-back sets this week on that Sunday into Monday set and also in the later sets in the week we do get some extra burn out of Hower and possibly cornet if he’s getting that R there hachimura Christie and reddish with question tags on Reeves and with doubtful on D’Angelo Russell Christy looks to probably be the prime guard beneficiary there hachim in the starting lineup often found on the wawies and reddish could probably get some burned especially if Reeves rests one of those two games as well now we just want to watch the status of Dorian Smith in Brooklyn but I do like him if not we could probably expect some more Noah Clowny minutes there zier Williams and Jaylen Wilson for Miami I’m looking at Duncan Robinson Haywood High Smith or homie Haz Jr who had a really good last game for them in limited minutes which is good to see him finding some form and if they can stick around he is a favorite in the Heat team and we can see him make some and I know I know spoler is asking for more from him as well and it’s that just that second year you either rise or you fall and he hasn’t played well but the homie hackers JR could really come around and this could be the start of sub minutes for him this week especially looking into that for that back toback for those Tuesday and so that Monday and Wednesday low volumes and over in Minnesota we’ve got McDaniels and N Alexander Walker they’re probably Our Best Bets why I can make one or two ads get four games out of it straight away those ones who were finishing off the week I could finish Sunday go Monday and then Wednesday I get three ads finishing get a win in the back of week six which is important obviously I then start week seven strong I can just set my roster on Tuesday with who I’ve got because especially if I’m not dropping a guy if I’m dropping the guy off that’s not going to be playing on Tuesday as well and I added benefit if they you can an upgrade for the Monday and the Wednesday game I get that Wednesday game out of these guys and then I can just move on quite happily so let’s go through those again let’s focus on these guys to start the week especially because we want to play it very qu very just Softly on Yahoo based on the amount of ads we had we got Rish Shay Hower and cornet hachimura chrisy and reddish fny Smith I’m gonna add clany to that list with that ankle injury news from you know from Brooklyn zier Williams Jaylen Wilson uh Duncan Robinson Haywood H Smith hom Haz Jr j McDaniels and nille Alexander Walker from the Minnesota Tim wolves that about does it and in fact it does make sure you like And subscribe to all things inside NBA hit the buzzer down below it’s the buzzer it’s the
