[theworld228]

[a-friend]

Now this is the Denver Nuggets I remember.

Harden, Ezeli, Lauvergne to go. 50/50s -- easy $

 

[addict4sneakers]

Mike Malone is making me lose $

 

[sneakefreake]

Bazemore can go to hell, scrub every time except when I don't roster him.

And going McCollum Leonard instead of  Barton Towns is gonna ruin my turbo slate

First meh night so far on FD. Gonna cash in my cash games but that's about it. Hit badly on Gallo and Jonas V.

DK has a lot of potential tho.

 

[Lovetohate3000]

I should have played more tournaments. I'm at 317 with markieff still going

 

[big j 33]

I was on a bit of a nice streak, then went nuts and basically tripled my normal play. 

Looking like I'll lose all but one contest 

 It was honestly just bored and kind of liked my teams. Oh well. I'll build my bankroll back up and take my time. 

 

[scotthallwithapick]

Damn. Had a spark (the first two nights) now I'm just garbage (tonight)

 

[pdino]

Teach me

I count on 50/50s - double/ups to build my bankroll, then play a couple tournaments.

I build around value. Value on FD is 5x price. Since they give you 60k to work with 60k x 5 = 300k = If you stick to guys hitting their values, you'll score 300 points. 300pts most nights gets the W. 4000$ player need to get 20pts for value (4 x 5).

I start by building my l/us around my perceived greatest values (usually cheap players, who will hit or exceed value). After I've found my must-play values, I then pick my superstars, usually based on match-ups, higher scoring games. For example, I consider Tobias Harris to be the worst starting SF defender in the NBA, so KD was a must today (even though his score is more inflated due to OT.)

That's my basic strategy.

First time doing NBA

What's a good amount of points a individual player should get you? I'm used to football so not sure if a player getting 50pts is the norm

I did my first lineup for a quadruple up and it's not bad. Still got second half for Bledsoe. If he has a solid 2nd half I should land in the money

 

[bronconation24]

How much does speculating %owned influence your guys' lineups? I feel like I overthink it and get cute but the best players just put up numbers man. I'm talking about nba

None. IDC about ownership anymore man. It's overhyped to the point everyone overthinks it. For cash it doesn't matter at all and in tourneys I just try to have one player I think is being slept on. Everybody else is in play regardless over %

 

[JCMojica24]

Looks like I'll win 2 of my 4 and come up with a loss of 6 bucks. Need to start playing some 50/50s

 

[Bert.]

Y'all obviously do research this lineup I picked was decent but I went with my gut. Really haven't paid attention to basketball but will def be trying it out more. Got lucky once so we'll see tomorrow

 

[a-friend]

When you have 3 players give you 135 before your next 5 have played a minute, you feel real good.

When those next 5 are Lillard/CJ/Gallinari/Gary Harris/Myers Leonard, you feel real good.

When you look at the score board 3hours later and your score is 210 

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

You picked 5 guys on a b2b . That's important

 

[a-friend]

Not in October it isn't. 

Not when they are playing Suns it isn't.

Not when those guys are the only scoring threats on the team, it isn't.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

I stand corrected |I. Don't know what day it is anymore
