let’s take a look at week nine for Fantasy Basketball Michael Bolton thanks Josh it’s Michael Bolton here and it’s time for another episode of the locked on Fantasy Basketball podcast let’s get to it let’s get to it inde you are locked on fantasy your daily NBA fantasy podcast part of the locked on podcast Network your team every day hello and welcome to the locked on Fantasy Basketball podcast brought to you by basketball monster my name and Josh lyd and I’ve received an awful lot of positive feedback from my face I’m also the lead fantasy Analyst at basketall monster.com and you can find me on Blue Sky at Josh lloyd. b.so on Twitter at red rockball on Tik Tok at red rockball and on Instagram at locked on Fantasy Basketball today’s episode is brought to you by Robin Hood Robin Hood gold provides the Privileges of a high net worth for any net worth these generous benefits are now available for only five bucks a month the new gold standard is here with Robinhood gold sign up at robinhood.com Gold also thank you for double banging the show and watching on video and listening on audio and leaving comments and subscribing and all of that stuff which is uh very very positive and beneficial and useful for the show so that is uh great that you’re able to do that all right so a little scheduling announcement for me I’m recording this show on Thursday evening States time because I’m have to head away for a couple of days to an interstate wedding so normally I would record this show on a Saturday evening it would post for me on a Sunday morning and it would be previewing the next week so it’s a couple of days in advance so the usual scheduling show that I do is going to be somewhat different and that is because like well not somewh I’m going to do most of things but I’m not going to be telling you hey this guy might be in and might be out cuz he’s injured cuz there’s going to be two days that pass before this show publishes and you won’t see that and so that’ll make no sense to do that or for me to give specific hey these are a really interesting like weekly League lock player because again there’s going to be multiple games that have gone on since I do this so for all of the latest up-to-date injury news and weekly projections basketball monster.com is going to have those things they’re just not going to be included in this video so just be aware of that I also thought that I would be able to have some time to do a preview of Saturday’s NBA cup semi-finals from fantasy streaming perspective I don’t think I’m going to have the time to do that so just be aware you may there may not be a single show that releases well actually you’ve already you already know cuz I’m releasing this after that so yeah you already know whether that’s happening or not I’ll give that I’ll give that little disclaimer in the show that’s going to come after this but recorded after this released before that’s all too much uh time machine stuff so yeah just be aware that I’m recording this one in advance so it’s just slightly less because it’s two days before it would normally pop out even though the schedule is going to be the same and that brings me to the next point I know you’re going to have questions about what the schedule is so let’s just address a couple of those things right now this is week n of the NBA calendar if you are playing on Yahoo this is your week eight matchup if you are playing in the lock on Fantasy Basketball bowl or if you happen to be in Industry pickup this is the second half of our week eight matchup if you are playing on ESPN or any other format this is actually week n of matchups and that is where the weak numbers do get confusing so we’re talking about the games from the 16th of DEC December through to the 22nd of December there will be no extra games added into this week the NBA Cup Final is on Tuesday and that game does not count for Fantasy so we understand where we’re at now December 16 to December 22 week nine might be week eight on Yahoo might be week nine somewhere else is that 7-Day period there is an NBA Cup game on Tuesday and that does not count for fantasy got it bang so let’s talk about the weekly schedule cuz we are heading back into normality we are heading back into not we’re not there we’re not there yet we’re heading back into regular sort of scheduling which is coming up um but we’re not quite there yet so let’s take a look at this um at this schedule for the week let’s have a look at where we sit with uh you where the games are played and how many are on each day and the answer to that is we start the week pretty light again for the second consecutive week there are six games on Monday there are zero games on Tuesday that is the NBA Cup Final and that does not count for Fantasy that will include and by the time you’re watching this you might actually know the answer to this that will include the winner of Milwaukee and Atlanta and the winner of Oklahoma City in Houston they will play on Tuesday but it will not count for Fantasy from now on no more games are being added into the schedule the schedule is done so we play six on Monday zero Fantasy games on Tuesday zero total games on Wednesday and then it’s back to normal except it’s sort of flip-flopped in the in usually we we’re going to get a big big volume Friday a solid volume Saturday no not many games on Thursday lowish to Mid sort of on Sunday but that’s not how we’re doing it this week it’s 13 games Thursday three games Friday 12 games on Saturday and three games on Sunday to end out the week what about volume of games how does that all play out with uh with these teams well there’s only one team that plays four games this week and that is your Sacramento Kings that is the only team playing one game so there you go um so your kings have got the advantage here because the vast vast majority of teams and by it’s relatively vast majority 17 teams played two games and 12 teams play three games so it’s Sacramento with four and then it’s Brooklyn Charlotte Chicago Cleveland Denver Detroit the Clippers Miami New Orleans Philadelphia Toronto and Utah all of those teams play three games and everybody else plays two Atlanta Boston Dallas Golden State Houston Indiana the Lakers Memphis Milwaukee Minnesota New York Oklahoma City Orlando Phoenix Portland San Antonio and Washington all have two games now there you’ll notice some of those team names in there Houston Oklahoma City Milwaukee and Atlanta some of those teams will play three but only two will count and that is not changing so we got one team playing four 12 teams playing three and 17 teams playing two games during the week so your kings get an advantage over everybody this week a big advantage over 17 different teams they’ve got a they double the games up so this is where a Keegan Murray a Kevin herder yeah obviously Malik monks being rosted but even like if Keon Ellis gets into those games like Isaac Jones or a um even maybe a j crowle they are relative ly thin in terms of the way the kings run things but that is how that is how that roster of games is going to play out for the coming week that’s that’s where we sit with that so again absorb that one team plays four games 12 teams play three and 17 teams play two games for the week let’s come back and talk quality games let’s come back and talk streaming but today’s episode is brought to you by Robin Hood gold with Robin Hood gold you don’t need one of those Silver Spoons Place wherever you want it to be to eat up the financial favors of the 1% is silver how soft is silver as a metal I’m not really sure cuz I’d imagine a Sil Silver Spoons are fine maybe it was like a zinc spoon you eat it and then you it bends but that’s not what we’re talking about we’re talking about Robin Hood actually not mety which is is that a real word that’s a real word and I think it’s the right usage but Robin Hood doesn’t care about that they just want you to get the rates and the perks that are usually reserved for High Society anyone who’s resourceful any of you blogs out there who are resourceful you can get involved with Robin Hood gold and get a very liberal rate of 4.25% apy on uninvested cash and be rewarded with a handsome 3% retirement boost on IRA account contributions Robin Hood gold provides the Privileges of a high net worth for any

disclosures visit robinhood.com gold investing involves risk rate may change gold membership is offered by Robin Hood gold l l see all right so let’s go and have a look at where the quality games sit for the week and I think you should know by now just by looking at those dates and not those dates those game numbers that I put up before but if you if you don’t here we go Monday is a quality game day Friday is a quality game day and Sunday is a quality game day 63 and three the other two game days are a 13 game Thursday and a 12 game Saturday so the days that we would attack to stream is the Monday Friday Sunday there are a bunch of teams actually who do play two quality games the week no one’s got three there are a bunch that play two Sacramento who have the four games total for the week and then it’s Charlotte Cleveland Denver Miami Philadelphia and Toronto all have two quality games for the week there’s a bunch of teams that have one Atlanta Boston Dallas the Warriors Lakers Memphis Minnesota the Knicks Orlando Philadelphia not Philadelphia Phoenix Portland San Antonio and Washington they have one quality game the other teams do not have any meaning they play Thursday and Saturday and that is it so if you’re streaming those guys in you’re not going to use them most likely so if you’re looking to get a Detroit Player to stream in maybe that is assar Thompson maybe it’s isah Stewart and Jaylen Duran’s RIS keeps him out maybe it’s Tim Hardway well they’ll just sit on your bench and do nothing they’ll rot you won’t use them but if you’re looking to say hey there’s some weirdness going on Toronto wise mobo starting hey they’ve actually got two quality games next week not a bad one to have a look at in Charlotte do I have the I’m going to hold Mark Williams but Nick Richards maintains value in that spot V Mich even though lamelo Ball’s probably going to be returning do is there a value there is there value in the winner soldier Max streu with two quality games I’m not sure there is but maybe maybe but that’s how we look at in terms of who’s got the the games that are going to be more usable now in terms of a streaming type scenario I don’t don’t think it’s really anything that you need to specifically get aggressive and plan out and we’ll talk about back Tob backs and all that stuff coming up in a sec but to me this is another stash week we’ve only got three only got three quality game days because there’s two days that aren’t game days at all so it’s Monday Friday Sunday now you can look at Charlotte early in the week and go all right I’m going to get a Charlotte player here they play Monday and they play Friday they’re the only team that plays Monday and Friday together remember we’re skipping skipping Thursday cuz there’s 13 games on not a streaming day so you could get a hornet I go Monday and Friday and then what do you do with the other three moves Saturday’s got 12 games on so not really that interesting and then Sunday’s three so you add a Sunday player I guess but that’s not a real like massive stream Advantage there is it so using some of you ads to take guys who you think are going to have big jumps up or you want to just hold to see where it goes because it’s just going to be realistically add someone Monday add someone Friday add someone Sunday you can do a Charlotte Monday Friday back to back but you’re not actually gaining anything CU you’re not going to really run out of moves I don’t think during the week so the week it sets up with some quality games but there’s no specific massive advantage to really planning it out and going well I’m going to get Charlotte early in the week I don’t think there’s a big advantage to that because again you’re just going to be ending up with like okay that’s cool now I’ve got like three more ads for Sunday am I actually going to use three roster spots to add extra players in probably not and I think the value would have been to get the best guy on Monday and then separately the best guy on Friday which is not necessarily the same player that you would try on a Monday Friday pseudo back toback from Charlotte does that all make sense like it it is the the clear thing is hey Charlotte Monday Friday let’s out a Charlotte horners player but you’re going to have leftover ads anyway so you’re with the stashing guys or you’re just using them one game on and just grab someone here grab someone here or it’s a longer term view into future weeks that’s how I would approach this week in terms of streaming if you’ve got multiple Roser spot or you know you’re on an ESPN league and you’ve got seven ads you go ham have two streaming slots add extra guys in but you still got that ability with only three days of streaming there possible and no massive like gigantic games advantage in terms of the positioning you’re just adding sort of guys when it appears that’s how I think that we should be approaching this week that’s yeah again if you want to have a different approach I think there are different ways you can go about it but that’s not the way that I would go about it what are the quirks in the schedule this week there are quite a few obviously the big Quirk is going to be that there just no games on in on Tuesday and Wednesday nothing’s happening there’s no games there so there we go and you’ve got then that leads into a 13 game Thursday which is not really at all a streamable day in terms of the quirkiness of it there’s only one team that does not play on Saturday or Sunday and that’s the Oklahoma City Thunder so their week is going to be over by the time you get to the weekend and that’s interesting cuz there are a lot of streaming sort of options on the Thunder like Dort or Caruso or a wallet or a Joe although Wallace looks like a hold Caruso might be and if you wanted to move on like you wouldn’t do it for Saturday with only 12 games on you’d you’d be considering that and doing that in uh yeah for for Sunday maybe the only team that has the extreme delayed start to the week is the Bucks and it won’t seem like that if they make the NBA Cup Final because they’ll play on Tuesday but for us if we’ve got jannis or Middleton or Dame or what whatever we won’t use a bucks player until the three game Friday so that’s the only team that impacts everybody else has got a game either Monday or on Thursday the Bucks do not play until Friday but that means they play Friday and they play Saturday I think I believe it’s I believe it’s Saturday they play Maybe It’s Friday Sunday they play um so that’s that’s what we’re looking at in terms of the quirkiness of that part of the schedule if we take a look at where the three game in fourn night periods um three game in four night periods run I’m not going to use exact four night periods because what’s the point when there are two zero game days so let’s do Sunday to Friday that is a 4 game night period there is one team who plays three games in that four game night period and it is your Charlotte Hornets who we know have got the Monday game they’ve got the Friday game and they’ve got the Sunday game all right is that true yeah no no that’s that’s not true sorry my bad they’ve got the sorry sorry they’ve got the Monday game the Thursday game and the Friday game so they actually play three game days in a row the Charlotte Hornets and that’s the only team that has those three game days in a row so there’s only start the week There’s the Hornets have got that little boost of a schedule remembering that Thursday is a big volume day Monday to Saturday there are a lot of three gameing forn night teams except the problem here is that that includes a 13 game Thursday and a 12 game Saturday so Brooklyn Charlotte Chicago Cleveland Detroit the Clippers Miami Philadelphia Sacramento and Utah play three games in four game nights between Monday and Saturday but there’s a lot of high volume stuff in there and then to end the week this is where again the the the focus can be Thursday through to Sunday the Kings who have four games for the week and the Pelicans who they’re playing each other today actually on Thursday they play three games in four nights which is a true three game in fortnite to end the week they’ve also got the weekend back toback there as well remembering Saturday is a 12 gamer and Thursday is a 13 game day so they both play Thursday Saturday and Sunday so the streamability is not as high as you might think it is if we look at which teams have got four games in six nights six game nights that is including the Sunday of week 8 through to the Sunday of week N9 we already know it’s Sacramento because they’ve got four games during the actual week of week nine but the Pelicans play on the Sunday as well so over the next six NBA game nights both of these teams have got four games they’ve got the three game in fortnite to end the week they have the weekend back toback so the schedule is favoring especially towards the end the Pelicans and the kings in terms of giving us some sort of of an advantage there we’re going to come back and look at back-to-backs to finish off this little week preview but before I go and do that today’s episode is brought to you by fan jeul sports book right now you can get ready to tackle all of the NFL action with fanel America’s number one sports B new customers can go and be at $5

and joined up and then when you place that first $5 bet and it wins you win yourself $150 in bonus bets back so never waste a hunch and make every moment more with fangel an official Sports partner of the NFL and don’t forget to gamble responsibly okay so we’re going to head back in and just take a look at some backto back action um and again because of the way the schedule is playing out it’s not all going to be true back-to-backs we’re looking at how it’s a functional back toback a pseudo back toback there’s no Sunday Monday back toback there is Monday and Thursday is the first back-to-back which is obviously not a real back-to-back but it’s you with no games Tuesday Wednesday that’s two game days in a row the problem here being is you don’t gain the advantage because there are 13 games on Thursday but the teams that do it Brooklyn Charlotte Chicago Denver Detroit the Clippers Sacramento Toronto and Utah where we get a little bit more interesting is Monday to Friday and you will say Monday to Friday is not a back-to-back JS and that’s that’s true but it also is because it’s the first usable of the week on Monday it’s the second usable day of the week on Friday so you’re skipping Tuesday with zero you’re skipping Wednesday with zero you’re skipping Thursday with 13 so if you have a Charlotte player a Miami player and a Philadelphia player they’re the ones who play Monday and Friday remembering that charot also plays Thursday in there even though you’re not going to be adding like Cody Martin for that and using him most likely but you will use him Monday and Friday same with heat guys same with Sixers players Thursday to Friday is a real back-to-back but there’s 13 games on Thursday and that includes the Charlotte Hornets and the Oklahoma City Thunder um you know not really doing a huge amount with that apart from the guys that play on Friday there’s a little bit Target ability there and then we have another real back toback which is Friday through to Saturday again the problem being that Saturday has 12 games on so whether you’re adding a guy to play that back toback will you even use them on Saturday you can answer that question I can’t but the odds would suggest you probably can’t do it there are five uh sorry four teams that do it Cleveland Miami Milwaukee and Philadelphia they play Friday they also play on a 12 game Saturday and the last back toback we look at is the weekend one that is Saturday to Sunday there’s no one that plays Friday and Sunday together so you can forget about that pseudo back toback Saturday 12 games Sunday 3 it’s the Pelicans it’s the Kings and that is this is why again streaming this week is not a a supremely defined science it’s about taking cracks at BLS because you’re not going to gain a games play in advantage and maximize those games cuz just isn’t a possibility for the vast majority of you but the Pelicans and the Kings play on that weekend back to back now normally I’d come through here and say well here’s are the injured guys to pay attention to I’m not going to do it we are too far out for me to give that sort of information so I just wanted to give you an overview remind you again no games are being added to this week that part of the schedule is finished there are no games added there’s nothing on Tuesday that counts for Fantasy there’s nothing at all on Wednesday and then we’ve got the overload Thursday got the overload Saturday so more time of individual spot streaming more time of individual hey let’s stash this guy and see what happens as we get back to a regularly scheduled type of NBA situation so let me know how you going let me know what’s going on in your life what’s what what are you up to and in the meantime give me a thumb up while you’re doing it but just give me a comment tell me something that’s going on and remember we’re always wanting to focus here on the good right we might say this this sucks the NBA cup is terrible it’s ruin fantasy just look at on the bright side it gives your team a couple of extra days to get healthy it gives us a chance to sort of reset and look at our teams and just go huh all right maybe I’m doing this maybe I’m doing that that’s all good not everything is all good but an extreme focus on negative it’s not healthy for anybody and it’s not healthy for you when you’re talking about yourself or or your friends as well guys we are done here thank you so much for listening everyone see you [Music]
