With just one day until the Holiday we have a huge Wednesday set of NBA games. November 25, 2015 brings us many of the best players in action, so it will take more fantasy points than normal to place in your contests. I went with a relatively balanced lineup tonight led by Rondo and Knight at point guard. The supporting cast include Okafor, Wiggins and Porzingis. The lower value players still get a bunch of minutes (Waiters and Covington). Good luck everyone!

I want to thank all the followers and positive comments so far this year. It can take a lot of time to research and post, so even when we have losing streaks I never look back, always forward to another winning streak. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
On top of your game as always! Grateful for all of this thank you!
Thanks for the awesome comment. It has been a good week for sure!
Keep up the good work! You’re definitely making this stuff a lot more fun for me as the season moves along. I’m just waiting for the big time line-up. It’ll happen sooner than later as good as you have been doing.
Thanks again.
Thanks for the great comments! This has been a solid stretch of games! Happy Thanksgiving.
Hey Johnny, one question.
Is it good to try to put a team together with all the big dogs like Westbrook, Durant, Harden and the others then throw a few other MAYBEs in there?
I know they are picked up heavily so it doesn’t make too much of a difference but I thought I might try it tonight as a sideline team next to yours. Your line-up gets all my money though.
I hit those big dogs hard early in the year and when they play well it can be great. But then you MUST hit multiple long shots in order to do well. While this can win big if you are able to hit guys around 4000 – 5000 consistently, I found it more consistent to get quite a few guys in the 6000 – 9000 range and then I would only need 1 or 2 lower tier guys. And in that range I can find guys like Jeff Green or Dion Waiters that still get 25 – 30 minutes.
I always recommend people playing whatever their gut tells them. Harden had a huge game tonight and if you hit him with some low values that is the way to hit a MAJOR win. But for me, I like to grind out steady 50/50 wins and play small tournaments. Over 300 points tonight with only one huge point total from Knight. Covington played great for his salary too.
I have seen too many people play those $10 – $25 tournaments and lose 5 – 10 in a row. It can happen, as only around 15% – 20% cash. Just like cards, bad streaks can happen, as I have had already. But overall, I feel in the NBA I can hit 65% at least for the year on 50/50 with a few tournament places as well. I only play what I can modestly afford. And I love bball so it is almost like getting free entertainment. Take care.
