  • They are the best

    Doc and Bru have the best, most consistent and in-depth analysis out of any pod. They keep it fresh with each pod and the way they play off each other makes for a fun listen. I am here for the stats but am addicted to the fun they have (Burrito Brothers!). Keep up the fantastic work crew.

  • Best Fantasy Hoops Podcast

    I’ve been doing Fantasy Basketball 32 years and have learned more listening to this Podcast than collectively the years before this pid. That’s no exaggeration. Going to really miss Dan Besbris, though. He was a fantasy hoops workhorse and a true legend.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Mar 2 NBA Box Score Breakdown: Waiver Wire Adds & Drop Alerts
Q: Randy Green asks to rank these players for potential adds given current minutes and roles.
The host suggests prioritizing players with guaranteed minutes like Precious Achua and Yaka Pertle for reliable scoring and boards, then considers rising youngsters like Jonathan Kuminga and Anthony Wallace (Wallace) as upside options, while treating veterans such as Brook Lopez and Andre Drummond as potential drop candidates unless they show consistent production.
Mar 30 NBA Box Score Breakdown: Waiver Wire Adds & Drop Alerts
Q: What is the likelihood Anthony Edwards will play the back-to-back this week?
The hosts assess the schedule and believe there is a moderate chance he sits back-to-backs, but there is a reasonable probability he plays if the team wants him on the floor given rest days and the opponent's matchup.
Tuesday My Guys, Top Adds, Drop Zone & Wednesday Streamers
Q: Ara E. Ray Petro asks about a Buffalo Wild Wings in your area; how does this relate to the show's fantasy content?
The question is part of a lighthearted live Q&A segment, with the host sharing personal experiences to connect with the audience rather than seeking fantasy advice.
Mar 16 NBA Box Score Breakdown: Waiver Wire Adds & Drop Alerts
Q: Would you drop Ace Bailey?
Yes, the host suggests that in many formats Ace Bailey can be dropped in favor of streaming more versatile helpers who are available on waivers, such as Mitch Robinson, Isaiah Hartenstein, Aaron Gordon, or Derrick Jones Jr., depending on weekly needs and categories being targeted.
Fantasy Basketball Q&A: Trade Advice, Waiver Help & ROS Outlooks
Q: Should I hold or drop him for someone like Ty Jerome or Bryce Sensabaugh?
If you need a warm body for playoffs, you might consider dropping Norm Powell depending on injury status and roster needs; otherwise hold if you can wait for a return.
