who else lost this week because of the postponed games 🙋♂️
Happy Australia Day everyone 🇦🇺💚💛
Scottie Barnes has 9 blocks in last 2 games.
"get that garbage outta here" has some great soundbites lately
STILL debating if Poeltl is a drop at this stage is hilarious, man. He's been a drop for a month+ now.
Hi Josh 👋🏼
Happy Australia Day Josh!
I have Poeltl and Porzingis. Who is more of a drop? (160 players Points League)
Also have Tyler Herror and Austin Reeves on IL+
Josh, Poeltl (unless you have plenty of IR spots) was a jack ages ago. Hard to reconcile calling Bey a drop for weeks now when he's been producing well, while Poeltl is only now a drop when he was shithouse when he played and injured most of the season.
I trade ja morant for Ryan rollins and Shaedon sharpe in a ten man cat league. My team is filled with alot of waver guys so someone pls let me know if I win and if I did by how much
I traded brunson and bmill for cade just before this game. 6CAT league wdyt?
Why Josh keep saying Dallas and the lakers ? Don’t lakers play bulls ?
Should I hold Poole till the deadline? Or drop already?
The content is good, but the repeated unfunny jokes ruin it.
Naz Reid and Gobert just lost me this week smh 16 pts combined
Thanks Josh. Man, I lost against NBA Fantasy Bible in a league this week as well. D-Mac out here killing it.
Thank u for bringing awareness to pant-less cartoon characters
Josh Friday there were a lot of injuries, roster changes and it was a day you didn’t cover don’t know why
If I have a free IR slot in 16 team h2h 16 cats league, who should I hold? Risacher? Poetl? Scoot Henderson?
Someone dropped Sandro Mamu. I remember he's a must-roster, right?
Big Protest ✊🏼 and Big Mother Nature 🌨 ⛈️🌩 doing a number on Big Calendar 📅
Should i drop cam thomas?
