Fantazzle Fantasy Basketball: Ring In the New Year with some Cash!

Thursday, December 31st, 2009

Hello, boys and girls.  Welcome to another installment of Dr. Quez’s Good Advice.  This one’s gonna be a quickie, because it’s New Years Eve and there is much to do here in the snow-covered paradise also known as Brooklyn.

Every week brings us new surprises in the NBA, and thus in Fantazzle Fantasy Basketball as well.  This piece will focus on a short list of players who have offered excellent value over the past seven days, and who should be at the top of your list going forward anytime they offer you a four-game schedule.

David Lee, New York Knicks

Over the past seven days, Lee has averaged 45.8 Fantazzle Points Per Game (FPG), good enough to rank 7th best on the Fantazzle Player Rater (FPR).  He also is in the midst of a four-game schedule, so kudos to those of you who were wise enough to sign him for the current week.  At a 90K salary, you can’t really find a better value in Fantazzle Fantasy Basketball at the moment.

How is Lee doing it?  For starters, as the Knicks have transformed themselves into a respectable club, they have also slowed down the pace of their offense.  This means more pick-and-rolls for Lee, who excels at beating larger defenders to the basketball off the dribble, and who is perhaps the most ambidextrous finisher in the league.  Lee has also gained confidence in his mid-range jump shot, which has lately become very reliable, and is also a crucial part of his pick-and-roll repertoire.  When the defender plays over the pick, he uses his speed to get to the rim, and when the defender plays underneath it, he steps back and splashes a fifteen-footer.

Look for Lee to make his first All-Star team this year, and don’t be surprised if Knicks re-sign him this offseason instead of chasing after a more celebrated big man, like Chris Bosh.  He’s a perfect fit for D’Antoni’s offense, and has blossomed into a premiere post player.

Gilbert Arenas, Washington Wizards

Arenas offers a classic example of a player who can only benefit from the Fantazzle Fantasy Basketball scoring system.  In traditional formats, Arenas’s value is limited because of his piss-poor field goal percentage and astronomical turnover rates – two categories that are not part of the Fantazzle scoring system.  Here, there really is no down-side to paying Agent Zero his 115K salary when he’s actually playing good basketball, which he has been doing for a couple of weeks now (finally).

It shouldn’t come as a surprise that Arenas has averaged 46.7 FPG over the past week, because once upon a time, before all of the injuries, Arenas was a bonafide superstar, and a clear top-10 fantasy player, if not better than that.  Now, about two months into his comeback campaign, we are starting to see flashes of the old Gil, which means its time to start sticking him back in your lineup.  Sure, he’s no bargain at 115K, and he might not average 45+ FPG every week, but Arenas has one of the highest ceilings of any player in the game when he’s healthy, which he appears to be.  My money is on him being a top-10 Fantazzle player again going forward.

Rajon Rondo, Boston Celtics

With Paul Pierce out and Kevin Garnett also ailing (he is considered day-to-day), Rondo has been forced to shoulder more of the offensive burden lately.  Remember the Rondo who looked like the best player on the court during the 2008 NBA Playoffs?  Well, he’s baaaack.  Over the past seven days, Rondo has averaged 38.5 FPG, ranking him 17th on the FPR.  The main difference has been his scoring, which has jumped to 20 ppg during this run, while his assists (9.3) and steals (2.3) remain robust.  At a 90K salary, few players currently offer better value than Boston’s young point guard.

Wilson Chandler, New York Knicks

With an asking price of just 60K, Chandler is one of the cheapest options in the Fantazzle game, and yet he ranks among the top 75 on the FPR over the past seven days.  True, he has had a fairly up and down year, and you never know when he’s going to lay a stinker on you, but you can afford to take that chance with a young player in a good offense who has been on a roll.  The nice thing about Chandler is that he’s clearly viewed as a building block for the franchise, which means that even when he struggles, he will get his minutes.  And because he contributes in four different categories (points, rebounds, steals and blocks), he can get you points even when his shot is off.  He has averaged 27.3 FPG over the past seven days, and he is currently in the middle of a four-game schedule, which means he has offered excellent value to those  who were smart enough to sign him for the week.

Have a safe and happy New Year, everybody!

Fantazzle Fantasy Basketball Presents: Doctor’s Orders (more fantasy basketball advice from Dr. Quez)

Tuesday, December 22nd, 2009

Seven weeks into the NBA season and a nice cluster of Fantazzle fantasy basketball gamers has emerged.  I’m seeing a lot of the same faces in my weekly fantasy basketball leagues now, and it’s becoming clear who the real heavy hitters are.  These are the guys who have grasped the most fundamental rules of the basketball salary cap game, and are simply just looking for good value on a weekly basis, rotating in a familiar cast of characters any time they have a four-game schedule.

This post is really not for you guys.  I don’t want to waste your time telling you things you already know.  Check back with me in the New Year, thanks for checkin’ in.

For the rest of you, let’s go over two of these so-called fundamentals.  Maybe I can win you some money, so listen up.

The first rule of Fight Club is…there’s no such thing as a three-game player.  At least not in my universe.  The pool of rosterable Fantazzle players is not nearly as vast as you might think.  And that’s because it never makes sense to pay a guy to play a three-game schedule when there’s another guy, of comparable value, who is playing four games that week.

Take the case of Mo Williams versus Brandon Jennings.  Both are having really good fantasy seasons in both traditional formats – both among the top 30 – and in Fantazzle, where both are among the top 75.  This week, Williams and Cleveland have a four-game schedule while Jennings and the Bucks only play thrice.  Jennings is a top 30 Fantazzle Player (so far) while Williams is not even in the top 50.   Meanwhile, Williams commands a 90K salary while Jennings only goes for 80K.  You might be tempted to go for the young southpaw, thinking that on any given night he could go for 50 (Fantazzle Points…or actual points, really), so maybe he’s the better play.  Right?

Wrong. You never go for the guy with only three games, no matter how much you like him, and now matter how good the value.

Is Carlos Boozer a steal at 80K?  For shizzle.  Should I pay him 80K to play three games when I can pay Amare Stoudemire 110K to play four?  Nooope.

In this format, there’s always another good option available who plays a full four.  No, Stoudemire is not the steal that Boozer is, not the same great value.  110K is a lot of money, I know this.  And yes, you could take that 30K in savings and spend it somewhere else.  But you just cost yourself points there, buddy.  In order for Jennings to total the same amount of points as Williams, he’d have to play like top 15 player for a whole week: average nearly 37 FPG.  (The math: if Williams does what you expect him to do – average about 27 FPG, he’ll net you about 110 FPG for the week).

Now, this is of course something that could very well happen, since Jennings has already shown us that he can go off for 40, or even 50, on any given night, and he does average over 33 FPG.   But its certainly not something you can expect from the kid either.  The numbers just don’t support it.

And at the end of the day, no matter how you slice it, fantasy sports is just a game of numbers.  The Fantazzle fantasy basketball salary cap format is like a jigsaw puzzle – whoever can fit in the most high-value pieces into the same picture wins.  That’s the way it works.  Sure, you  might get lucky some of the time, pick guys based on intuition, or from watching them play on TV.  But if you rely on these two things are ignore the cold, hard facts, those black and white boxscores every morning, you will lose more than you win.  At least around here, in these parts.

Now, with that being said, it shouldn’t take a whole lot of time to figure out who you ought to play. Because for some weeks, there is a pretty short list of tier-one guys (think top-20 players) who are actually running a full four game schedule.

This week, for example, you can count them on one hand: Amare Stoudamire, Tim Duncan, Marcus Camby, Steve Nash and Baron Davis.  If I’m missing somebody, please call in now, the hotlines are open!  That’s 1-800-DJ-SALT-E-NUTS.

Which I suppose brings me to my next point, which is that it always pays to be pay LeBron.  And Kevin Durant, and Dwight Howard, and the rest of the upper-echelon guys who go for $100,000+ in this racket of a game we call the ‘Tazzle.  Well, nobody really calls it that (yet), but I’d bet my bottom dollar that you’ll see it in this here blog again.

True or false, you have had the following debate with yourself the first few times you played this game: am I better off trying to fill out a balanced roster, loaded with pretty good, but not really great players?  Or should I load up on them Brons, go nuts with them Kobes and say screw it, pass me a little Timmy Duncan while you’re at it?

It’s the classic debate that any Salary Cap Game worth its salt creates.  Here, I think the answer is pretty simple.  It’s kind of like the idea that you always want to take a safe, yet still-upsidish kinda guy in the first round of your draft (say, like a Pau Gasol), and then take your chances in the later rounds with those true high-risk, high-reward type players (say, like a Gilbert Arenas).

Here at Fantazzle, you always want to load up on those rare guys that are like money in the bank. Because if you are doing it right, you basically get to make about three or four first round picks in this game, and then go about finding slick value the rest of the way.   The one thing you absolutely don’t want to happen is pay good money (say, $100K or more) for a guy, and have him put up a 20 spot for you.  That’s what you call a flop, ladies and gentlemen, and make no mistake about it – it’s what costs you them shiny cash prizes, at the end of the day.

My goal with every squad that I pick is to have about three or four guys averaging upwards of 40 Fantazzle Points Per Game  (FPG), another three or four averaging in the 30′s, and then of course you sprinkle in a couple of them 20-point, 50-70K type value-buys (think Anderson Varejao or Trevor Ariza), and don’t look now, but you have yourself a 1400-point monster.

(The math: if the scoring average of every player on your team comes out to be about 35, and every player on your team is playing four games, that’s what you end up with).

If you are allowed to spend an average of 100K per player, then it stands to reason that you can afford to bag a couple of big ticket items as long as you can also snag your fair share of bargain-barrel pickups.

It’s kind of like this: you know that you could always get a better value for that electronic gadget if you wait until Black Friday, and then get up at four o’clock in the morning to wait on line outside of Best Buy with hundreds of equally crazy, broke ass idiots.  Or, you could just pay full price for it now, when you really want it, in December, and get to enjoy it all year long.

Yes, you have to shop for value but no, its not the only thing that matters – not when there are guys like David Lee floating around out there with 90K price tags.

Or think of it this way: will the Cleveland Cavaliers hesitate to offer LeBron James a max-level contract this summer when he becomes a free agent?  No, they’ll pray that he takes their money.  And that’s because he’s the only guy in the league who’s the best guy in the league; there’s always only just one.  Sure, LeBron costs you more than everybody else, but he’s also a lot better than everyone else, too, so you just pay him and smile.

Could Chris Paul be better a better fantasy play than James in a few months?  Sure, if he has a career year and sets a career high in steals.  But if that happens, you can just pay him instead.  Or maybe not – maybe you just pay him too.  The nice thing about this format is that you don’t have to choose between guys like that: you just have to be smart enough to know who else can help you in the 70K salary range to balance out your roster.

It’s OK to even overpay for a guy who is solid friggin’ gold when you’re getting 50 points, and you can also get 30 points from another guy, like Carlos Boozer, who makes 80K.  As long as you also find your bargains, it all balances out.

But will you ever get a 50 point bargain?  Maybe, but they’re awful hard to come by.  And certainly not on a regular basis.  (In case you’re wondering, LeBron is averaging nearly 48 FPG this year).

So now we’ve got our first two rules down.  Any questions?  There will be more to come in the weeks ahead.  Dr. Quez is open for business, everybody.  If you have a comment, just leave it here on the page.  Otherwise, hit me up at agoliaat@gmail.com.  Happy Chanukkah, boys and girls.  That means you, Scot Hirschfield!

New Fantazzle Fantasy Football Game for Thu and Sat NFL Games

Wednesday, December 16th, 2009

Hi all,

Fantazzle Weekly Fantasy Football Games is always trying something new and giving our users what they want. We have had several requests to make Thursday (and now Saturday games) relevant to our lineup of fantasy football games. So this week, we are introducing a new fantasy football salary cap game that will use players ONLY from this week’s Thursday and Saturday game.

And there is no time better to play this fantasy football game. Over 60% of fantasy football fans seasons are over due to bad years in their traditional fantasy football leagues plus these are two incredible games. Both 13-0 teams are playing, the Indianapolis Colts and the New Orleans Saints, which both host some exciting fantasy football players. Now, thats not to say your going to have a lineup with Peyton, Brees, R Wayne, etc. This is a salary cap fantasy football game so you’ll get a few stars, but you’ll have to watch you budget. You’ll have to pick and choose wisely staying under a $1,000,000 salary cap.

This fantasy football game should be great for fans starting to go through some fantasy football withdrawal PLUS make these games exciting to watch. I’ll watch NFL games at any chance I get, but I know I’m the minority and not the former. I watched all 60 minutes of the Oakland/Washington game on Sunday (it was the only one on TV for me). Thats just me. But I know its tough for some to watch games when the the NFL team they support is not playing AND they have no fantasy football players playing. Makes the NFL game just a tad more boring. This special fantasy game hopes to combat this for you all. Sign up before the game starts on Thursday night at 8:20pm ET and be rewarded with the cash prize Saturday night after the NFL game ends. You’ll have the money deposited in your account IMMEDIATELY following the football game to give you plenty of time to register for our regular weekly fantasy football games that start on Sunday at 1pm ET.

Hope you all find these special fantasy football games exciting to play!

Also, if you missed it last week, we started a new fantasy football promotion. Besides our Steve Smith free fantasy football salary cap game (also make sure to vote for Steve Smith promotion presented by Fantazzle Weekly Fantasy Football Games for the 2010 Pro Bowl to win free tickets to the NFL Pro Bowl, airfare, hotel and dinner with Steve), we are offering another free fantasy football game and all you have to do is follow Fantazzle on Twitter. Follow us now and you can receive the URL for this free football game and win a cash prize.

Take care,

Dr. Quez’s Fantazzle Fantasy Basketball Advice

Sunday, December 13th, 2009

Wondering who are the hottest players in Fantazzle Fantasy Basketball right now?  Wonder no more, Dr. Quez on the case.  You have your usual suspects – the LeBrons, D-Wades, and Dirk Nowitzkis of the world.  But unless you’re paying very close attention, you might not realize just how good the following players have been lately.

Andre Iguodala, Philadelphia 76′ers

Iguodala has been one of the top ten most valuable players in Fantazzle lately, joining the 40 Fantazzle Points Per Game (FPG) club over the past two weeks, territory typically only occupied by the aforementioned group of tier-1 players.

This 40 point mark refers not to actual points scored but total Fantazzle points accrued, which can be accomplished in a variety of ways.  You can count the number of 40 point players on two hands, and they are all well-rounded guys who contribute in at least three different scoring categories.  Iguodala has reached this mark by actually contributing in all five Fantazzle scoring categories, something that only LBJ and Wade have managed to do on a regular basis this season.  He’s being doing this all year, but his numbers have simply spiked across the board lately, especially his scoring, which has jumped to over 23 per game over the past two weeks.  Sure, he’s priced aggressively at $125,000.  But then again, that’s about what Steve Nash will cost you, and we already know how poorly he fares in this format.

Carlos Boozer, Utah Jazz

If you’re wondering why he’s been so good this year, look no further than his employment status. Ah yes, the infamous walk-year performance boost.  Sure, it helps that both he and Deron Williams are healthy again, but I don’t think anybody really saw this kind of production coming. Boozer has averaged 41.8 FPP over the past two weeks and 38.3 for the year, while only costing you $85,000.  Don’t ask why we’ve priced him so low, just sign him up every time he’s got a four-game week on his hands.  In fact, Boozer offers such stellar value that you probably want to pay him even if he’s only got three games on tap for the week.  That’s how good he’s been.

Brook Lopez, New Jersey Nets

If you haven’t been paying attention to Brook Lopez lately, it’s time to get your act together.  The truth is that we’re looking at perhaps the next great fantasy center coming into his own right now, less than half-way through just his second season.  How many NBA execs are kicking themselves for letting him slide to all the way to New Jersey with the tenth pick in the 2008 draft?  This is now two years in a row that a budding superstar has fallen to that spot in the draft, the other being Brandon Jennings (going to Milwaukee this June).  Yes, he does command a healthy salary in our game ($100,000), but he still offers excellent value, averaging 36.5 FPP for the year and 41.4 FPP over the past two weeks.  How’s he doing it?  By averaging 23.3 points, 10.3 boards, 1.3 steals and 1.6 blocks over that stretch, good enough to place him at the number eight spot on the Fantazzle Player Rater.  Sign him up, because your smarter adversaries surely will.  You can’t let the good deals pass you by in any league, and Fantazzle is no different.

Weekly Rant:

Is There Hope for the Knicks?

Don’t look now, but Mike D’Antoni’s New York Knicks are 5-1 in December and have beaten four playoff-bound teams in the process (Phoenix, Atlanta, Portland and New Orleans).  This is not only good news for Knicks fans but also for alert fantasy players, as certain fringe players, such as Wilson Chandler, Larry Hughes and Chris Duhon are suddenly viable assets.  In addition, the already solid David Lee and Al Harrington have seen a spike in value, and second year sharp-shooter Danilo Gallinari has re-emerged as a top-50 fantasy option.

From a fantasy perspective, New York is an intriguing club because it features D’Antoni’s fast-paced offense.  The result is that when the jump shots are falling, the Knicks have seven – count them, seven – ownable fantasy players.  How many other teams can really say that?  And how is that even possible if this team is just 8-15, despite the recent winning streak?

The answer lies beyond the obvious (D’Antoni’s up-tempo system).  It has just as much to do with his newly shortened rotation, which now features only eight players, and sometimes just seven on any given night.  Nate Robinson hasn’t played a single minute since December 1, and rookie Toney Douglas has logged just 11.8 minutes per game this month, which has allowed the remaining guards and swingmen to all play extended minutes.  Now, Gallinari, Chandler and Hughes all get enough time to be productive, while Duhon is back to logging 35+ minutes per-game, as he did last year when he was a fantasy revelation.

Yet if you want to understand their success in real-world, non-fantasy terms, you can’t look at any of these six fantasy-relevant players.  Instead, you have to talk about defensive stalwart Jared Jeffries, who has been New York’s defensive anchor during the winning streak.  If you have actually watched the Knicks play over the past two weeks,  you’d know that he routinely guards the other team’s best offensive player, regardless of what position he plays, and leads the league in charges taken.  In their most recent victory over New Orleans, for example, you’d have seen Jeffries bouncing back and forth between the best point guard on the planet, Chris Paul, and David West, the Hornets’ best post player.  And you’d have seen him managed to stymie them both, despite giving away 30 pounds to West and ______.  His combination of height, length and speed is very unusual; All-Star Tayshaun Prince is the first analogue that comes to mind.

The irony is that Jeffries has played so well that the rest of the league HAS to take notice, and his trade value will correspondingly increase.  Entering this season, the Knicks’ plan was simple: develop the kids and try to move Eddy Curry and Jeffries’s contracts, because both extend into the 2011 season.  The logic was, if you take their salaries off the books, now you can offer not one, but TWO max contracts this summer.  You can say to LeBron James, hey, we know we suck right now, but we’d be pretty damn good if we added both you AND Chris Bosh, wouldn’t we?

Now the Knicks find themselves with a curious dilemma: if we find a taker for Jared Jeffries (perhaps by packaging him with Nate Robinson), should we even do the deal?

This was an unthinkable question to ask even three weeks ago.  But now, I would argue that’s its a legitimate one, and you really do have to think twice.  Let’s not forget that Jeffries was dubbed the “closet MVP” of that Wizards team that made a nice little playoff run in his last season with the club.  Now the Knicks have some swagger, and the reason why is they are able to run out FOUR plus defenders simultaneously, with Jeffries (PF), Chandler (SF), Hughes (SG) and Duhon (PG), and D’Antoni has routinely done precisely that over the course of their recent winning streak.

Think about it.  What if this Knicks team is better than people realize, and they keep winning games with Jeffries as the defensive anchor?  What if they inch closer to .500, and find themselves in the hunt for a playoff spot?  Do you give him away for some crummy player who happens to have an expiring contract?

I think Walsh almost certainly makes that deal, but I cannot say with confidence that it’s the right move.  The more I watch this guy play defense, the more I like this team as currently constituted.

Sunday, December 13th, 2009

Hi all,

Fantazzle Weekly Fantasy Sports Games was fortunate enough to be on Fighting Chance Fantasy football podcast last night, Midnight Oil (and the name is true to form as it was at midnight). No worries, you can listen to all the shows on Fantazzle’s fantasy sports community page. We have the latest podcast available there every day for your enjoyment. Besides Fighting Chance’s midnight fantasy football podcast, they also offer a football podcast on Tuesday (8pm ET) and Sunday morning (9:30am ET).

I thank Ryan and Jeff for the opportunity to talk about fantasy football. I can do that all day. I won’t lie, but it’s also great to get some words in about Fantazzle in the process. We were able to discuss the current Steve Smith free fantasy football games we are offering and the sponsorship we have with Steve’s 2010 Pro Bowl Football Promotion (sign up to win 2 free tix to the Pro Bowl, dinner with Steve, airfare and hotel stay). Plus we talked about how the fantasy football playoffs have or are about to start and how a lot of teams now have no one to root for on Sunday. Fantazzle’s weekly fantasy football games takes care of that issue since you can play games from week to week and always have some kind of fantasy football action happenin’.

Fantasy Football Playoff Time

Thursday, December 10th, 2009

Hi all,

I’d imagine that ~90% of head to head traditional fantasy football leagues have started their playoffs or this last weekend will determine your playoffs.  We are here to tell you about Fantazzle Weekly Fantasy Football Games. This isn’t a set your lineup advice fantasy football playoff article. If your looking for that, I recommend the following sites for that:

  • Fighting Chance Fantasy – three podcasts a week and these guys know what they’re talking about. Not only that, but they are entertaining to listen to. Not an easy combo for podcasts. Check out Fighting Chance Fantasy website or go to Fantazzle’s fantasy sports community page for the latest podcast.
  • Nova Fantasy Sports – great site for individual fantasy football player news and articles on fantasy football strategy. We use Nova’s info on Fantazzle’s fantasy football news section of our website.
  • Fantasy Football Librarian – Great fantasy football blog with links to just about every relevant start/sit site out there.
  • Fantasy Smack Talk - one of the better put together video casts about fantasy football.
  • The League – ok this is not a fantasy football tip site, but to follow up on my article on The League, give this sitcom a try. Funny funny stuff!

So now that I have some great fantasy football advice sites out of the way, here’s the main reason for the article. Given ~90% of traditional fantasy football leagues have started or are about to start their fantasy football playoffs that means there are a minimum of 60% of fantasy football teams without anything to do. Thats where Fantazzle Weekly Fantasy Football Games come in. You can continue to play fantasy football all year by playing in our fantasy games. You can create new teams every week and continue to play fantasy football. Not only that, but Week 17 and the NFL football playoffs are right around the corner and at that time 99% of league seasons will be over. Fantazzle Football Games has got you covered by that as well.
