We're almost to training camp!

Ball-Handler Shot Quality Fantasy Podcast Sep 13, 2019

Show notes

We're doing something new today as we dive in on what guards and ball-handlers saw changes to how they scored before and after the break. Jonas Nader and Mike Gallagher give a few reasons to be more aggressive on Donovan Mitchell and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander.

We'll talk a lot about what this data could mean for upcoming fantasy value and possibly widen their range of outcomes. Also some more encouraging stuff on D'Angelo Russell and we explain why Spencer Dinwiddie struggled late in the year.

There's some talk of our Thursday auction, but just a ton of takes to go with a stats-packed pod.

Deep Dive Stats Pod Vol. 2 Sep 06, 2019

Show notes

Ryan Knaus and Mike Gallagher are back with another deep-dive stats podcast. The Boston Celtics are the focus in this edition with talk on how Kemba Walker fits with Brad Stevens, Enes Kanter in the middle, how the new-look team affects Jaylen Brown, Jayson Tatum and Marcus Smart, and more on that squad.

We'll also be talking about some bigs who could make a big leap next year. Marvin Bagley, Thomas Bryant, Jonas Valanciunas, Jaren Jackson Jr., and Wendell Carter Jr. are all very intriguing picks.

There are some other tangents with our weekly Kelly Oubre talk and a lot more.

Last Season's Surprises: What to Expect This Year Sep 04, 2019

Show notes

Matt Stroup and Steve Alexander look at some of the most surprising fantasy performances from last season — including Pascal Siakam, Mitchell Robinson and Bradley Beal — and forecast what to expect as they go for an encore in 2019-20. Plus, can LeBron James bounce back after a massively disappointing season for the Lakers? We debate all of that and more on this episode.

Deep-Dive Stat Mailbag Podcast Aug 30, 2019

Show notes

Ryan Knaus and Mike Gallagher try something new with a listener request on which players to talk about. We tackle some in-the-weed stats on some guys we haven't given enough attention to in the past few weeks.

Terry Rozier is a fascinating player to discuss, so we'll talk about his new role. Miles Bridges also finds himself in a prime spot for a big season, so we'll talk about why we like him so much.

Eric Bledsoe won't have Malcolm Brogdon around, but will it affect his stats?

The Warriors are going to look very different this year, and D'Angelo Russell will have some major adjustments to make. We'll also hit on Draymond Green and Stephen Curry set to produce with Kevin Durant and Klay Thompson.

Otto Porter gets some attention and we address the Suns with Ricky Rubio and Kelly Oubre (again).

10 Undervalued Fantasy Options Aug 28, 2019

Show notes

With less than two months to go until the start of the regular season, Matt Stroup and Steve Alexander look at 10 players who seem to be undervalued or a bit under the radar in fantasy leagues, ranging from T.J. Warren to Jonas Valanciunas to Lonzo Ball to Marvin Bagley. We also discuss why Danilo Gallinari could be a good draft day value again, and try to make sense of why Kelly Oubre is still relatively easy to get in drafts.

August Fantasy News Round-Up Podcast Aug 23, 2019

Show notes

Mike Gallagher and Ryan Knaus discuss Zach Collins getting back on track after an ankle injury. What's his fantasy outlook for the upcoming season and what's the highest he should go?

Karl-Anthony Towns looks poised for a big year, and we continue to make the case he should go at No. 1 in nine-category leagues. Plus, Robert Covington at the four could change some things, Jarrett Culver could handle the rock, and maybe the Wolves can get more out of Andrew Wiggins.

We'll also hit on Jonathan Isaac, Ja Morant and Jaylen Brown in a stat-packed edition.

Out of Position Stats Pod: Smalls Aug 21, 2019

Show notes

After going over the Y! ranks last week, we're back to finish our out-of position pods. In this edition, we'll talk guards who can block a bit, not hurt you in FG%, and get some boards. We'll talk some predictive stats to possibly help out in blocks and higher FG%.

For the second half of the pod (24 minutes), we'll talk about a recent football draft. It was a deep 12-team league, so we'll talk a little about strategy and we think it'll help for those with drafts coming up.
