man squad at old man squad and you know you'll get all the show drops it'll follow you back so that's fun please like rate subscribe uh as you settle into the show for the day this one is going to be an action-packed morning Adventure we've got Rafael Johnson coming up here in like the next 15 seconds and as I I will put his face on the screen while I'm doing this I had this plan rough and we talked about this about 20 seconds before going on air I was like oh great we're going to do Rob's picks for the day and then it hit me as I was like running some garbage down stairs oh uh Ru was also the 10 slot in Josh's mock two weeks ago and we haven't talked at all about on this show in any capacity anyone with the 10th pick so now uh before I even say good morning um Rafi you're I'm I'm I'm kind of jamming a lot into this show So to that end good afternoon to you good morning to everybody else I'm in the morning yeah oh you're morning where you at I'm in son oh you're in Arizona yeah I don't know why I thought you were on Eastern time all right so good morning then that makes it easier morning thanks for having me I know I don't know I thought you were on Eastern time I got I got this I got my zones all screwed up here uh Rafael Johnson is at rafhael j r a p h i e l l e j on social media he is with the roto world the roto world um and we've got a lot to talk about so I I want to just jump straight into it now after all that I say JUMP straight into it after two minutes of preface um we're going to do your your guys first and then we're going to loop back around to a little bit from the mock draft so uh you gave me three last night one of them is in the thumbnail so there's a giveaway there do you want to start with the dude whose face people can see on their screen yeah let's start with lry Markin um he's had a really good two season run in Utah in terms of like the per game stats and all that played 5 five games last season um obviously there are going to be some availability concerns like he play he only played five games after March 1 last season and then nine the season prior so when you're on a rebuilding team you know you you don't want to assume that a guy's going to get shut down when you go into your drafts but it's something that you kind of have to take into account when going through the draft process with a player like Markin whether or not he's going to be available for the postseason if you need to look at the Jazz roster and make any other accommodations later in your drafts or during the waiver process throughout the season just to make sure you're covered so um 55 games he's only played 65 or more once in the last six now was a 22 23 season played 61 the year prior but other than that he hasn't been over 60 even so that kind of out underlines the availability concerns but when he's on the floor he's really good 23 points eight boards two assists about one steal half a block and three three-pointers per game close to a 50 4090 player um so you know nine c per game values 13th 25th and eight cat totals outside top 50 but I think with his ADP being 27 last year and thus far hash basketball has him at 33.2 at this early point in the process I kind of Wonder is he a lock for a third round guy should people be willing to reach toward the end of round two or hold off and let it be someone else's problem and that's the first question I would start out with for Lowry marketing yeah because I mean you know his pre-rank uh moved ever so slightly he's at 27 now on the Yahoo board I believe he was 32 before that so just a little bit sooner I I assume rth the the great fear with everyone I don't want to spend too much time on each guy because we've got a lot to cover today but it seems like this is a a price being built in pretty much because of the Assumption of a tank because there's really like you know he was he was a turn value last year per game in nineat like you just said this is a guy and his role is not changing considerably but to play the other side of it um you know two seasons back despite Utah moving into a tank midseason which is pretty much what they've done two years in a row he got up into the mid-60s in game so who's to say like where where do you think that number ends up with him I know it's really hard to make an estimate on that but do you think he can get into the mid-60s this season or or is that a pipe dream I feel like he's someone where as long as you get to 60 you'll get good fantasy value out of him um the question is all as always is when will those 60 games come like if he's on the shelf for most of March it's not really going to help you in playoffs for Fantasy so I think that's one thing you're kind of struggling with but you you kind of hope that he can hit 60 it's not something that he's done very often in recent years so I think that's the concern there um do you with with him being at 27 now moving from kind of back end of third to more towards the front end of the third do you still like him with that slightly earlier shift or is this like are we getting close to where the fear outweighs the produ I know this we I do this all the time because you know me everybody knows me I'm I'm a kawh Leonard guy always that like scale of Justice moment fear versus versus production where does that tip for you on Markin I would say end of the second would be I think early third is fine for him you know anywhere in the third round I think once you if you hit the fourth that's when you're talking about steel category so I think there's not really much of a gap there between too too soon and then a steel for for marketing but I think anywhere in the third is fine for me personally sweet all right uh where should we head next who's player number two on the board for you that would be lamelo ball um you know we talk about availability concerns he's played in 58 games total in the last two seasons 51 games or fewer in three of his four NBA Seasons I think the one exception was his 75 game year his second season so that's your biggest concern with him but when he's on the floor he's really good uh well 24 points five boards eight assist assist nearly two steals 3.2 threes last Season 22 and N cap per game value but the totals you know the availability not even in top 250 player for totals ADP of 13 last season no way reaches that this year just because of the injury concerns uh the Yahoo pre- rank at 19 know hash basketball has an ADP of 29.4 right now I think third round is is fair I don't know if I could use a top two round pick on him even with the tantalizing talent and the fact that they're still kind of building around him there in Charlotte I can't trust him for the injury reason so I think I wouldn't go anywhere before the third round for him and it may be a case of even just allowing him to be someone else's problem in fantasy yeah you know you're the I think you're the first person that's come on the pod that's argued the other side on lamelo mall and I'm really I'm really glad you did because uh ESP especially given the most recent Yahoo board adjustment where he went from 29 pre- rank up to 19 that was one of the biggest jumps of anybody in the early rounds along with like I think uh Kawai jumped 15 slots and shenon jumped nine but lamelo was right in there with like the biggest upward leapers and it feels like this is all because he says he's going to wear ankle braces I'm I'm really worried like he said that words what do words mean in August not much right like don't we I I don't know I I'm always on the side of I kind of want to see things before I really take the plunge and sometimes that puts me behind on certain guys when they make a leap like there was no way I was going to get Scotty Barnes last year the way I handicapped fantasy basketball I didn't see the the Big Blocks jump I didn't see the big whatever jump and and I'm okay with that I'll miss that one but there's other ones that are like the chances feel much more obvious I was in on Tyrese Maxi last year people say they they hear my name and they just think I don't draft anybody young but it's about like understanding what translates and this is different one this is a guy who like you said has played a full season one out of four effectively uh and now he's going to cost you a second round pick that's that's absolutely terrifying for me did you like him when his pre- rank was 29 it sounded like you did like third round you said take a shot there but I think like may be a bit I didn't mind I didn't mind him at that pre- rank that's what I would say um but yeah I can't see myself using a top 30 even a third round pick period on him I think I can excuse it like mid to late third but I wouldn't do it personally I think again he's someone that I would allow other another manager to have to deal with and beyond that I think in deeper leagues you have to consider a Trey man like with a final round pick um I don't think under normal circumstances you would think that but here's a guy who was 80th in totals after the trade deadline when he was traded there just outside of the top 100 and and eight cat from trade thead line onward average about two steals per game so you're getting some value there solid rebounder for his size at you know four and a half per game 5.2 assists I didn't think it would be that high for him given what we saw in Oklahoma City but to get some some sneaky value there he may be someone that's like a late round addition in a deeper League just to kind of cover yourself just in case those ankle braces don't exactly work out for the mill yeah it's it's absolutely horrifying and I know and there's this this sort of like sour taste left in folks mouths as well with ball you know I had him in one of all my leagues last season and that team was dead a month into the year the team was just cooked like everything else needed to go right it didn't because how often does every other thing go right on a fantasy team besides like one disaster uh and so that team that team was mid pack like I did a lot of stuff to try to get it back in the mix but if you don't have a first round pick you're in so so much trouble and it's not that different with a second rounder uh said the guy who's willing to take shots on old dudes all the time I guess uh ra we're talking to Rafael Johnson before we get to your third dude I like to do promo midow when people are still laser focused in what do you got going on over at RTO world right now um right now we're behind the scenes prepping our draft guide content player rankings team profiles player profiles bunch of features um that will likely start to unveil in midep so we're a couple weeks out from that U we're all hard at work myself Noah Zach and Amir so hopefully everyone keeps an eye out for that because the more fantasy basketball content the better I know it can get confusing for some people but I think a space where we can deal with a lot of voices you know a lot of quality output in terms of the product yeah totally agree and then you know for a lot of folks you find voices that you trust you can kind of clom on to them as and you know I I I often say that like you don't want to have everything going on at the same time but if you find someone that really speaks to you that's such a nice way to like settle in and this is this is fun man this is fun at the end of the day we're we're busting our butts we're we're grinding away we're staring at basketball numbers for hours and hours every day but it's fun work so you know uh join us on the ride join rth on the ride and everybody knows Ral world that's one of the ogs um who's the third guy for you today the third guy as a Knicks fan um looking forward to speaking about Julius Randle um dislocated shoulder injury on January 27th that ended his season at that point know he's working to come back but it just wasn't going to happen played in 46 games really good you know good averages 24 points 9.2 boards five assists didn't give you much defensively you're talking about 0.8 combined Steals and blocks 1.7 threes um 47% from the field had a rough year from three though I think he's about 31% 78% from the foul line nine cat per game value 129 the issue was turnovers three and a half per game top 70 five player and8 cat when you remove those turnovers um the ADP right now 65 and a half on hash basketball I know Yahoo has him at 65 in terms of their rankings couple variables coming to play here you got the addition of male Bridges a full season of ogan anobi who has his own injury issues to deal with in his past so I think interestingly enough with the laws of Isaiah hartenstein I know there have been some talks about Julius playing a little more Center um look this up on clean the glass he only played 1% of his minutes there last season for obvious reasons you've got hartenstein got Mitchell Robinson um precious Aira after the trade they had him as well the high point for him was 5% of his minutes now was his first season with the Knicks 201920 um really high points per possession numbers on offense but again a really small sample size I think with Randall the question is not just the injury concerns because he's had a few season enging injuries in recent years but also positioning and with all the threes SL fours that they have in that roster is he gonna play more time at the five and and will it be effective you know so that I think that would be my question with Julius so do you like him at 65 or you don't like him at 65 I don't know if I'd go that high I think I could excuse like 75 at 80 range but I don't know if I can go 65 and in in nine cat are you interested him him at all oh I I don't I don't think so just be I think the turnovers will come down like he averaged 2.7 the season prior yeah and you have more playmaking options on that roster now so he I think he should get back under three I don't know if I would go 65 and nine cat like an eight cat I would potentially consider it but not nine cat yeah I think I'm with you on that one as well um and I I get it on the head-to-head side you you everybody's sort of staring at these counting stats and points boards assists are all very good for Randall but no defensive stats to speak of of any kind he's he's truly awful in those departments turnovers very high you know field goal percent was a little better this last year but he's a negative in both percentages to me he fits more of the kind of points League mold um and even when you know even if I am punting something in nine cat it usually doesn't just ify the reach like you can probably get someone else here that's also punting whatever category is you're punting who probably then moves farther in front so I I think I'm I'm pretty much in agreement with you on this one as well and I think I'm in agreement with you on all three of the guys you brought up today but before I let you go I want to get into just briefly briefly we're not going to go like we're going to Deep dive the mock draft but rth had the 10th pick in Josh Lloyd's mock draft from a couple weeks ago and again it's just it's not a spot on the floor spot on the floor spot in the draft floor that we've talked about all that much and it's kind of it's kind of a weird one because uh well you actually had a shot at Trey young in this one and you went Kevin Durant instead which is kind of interesting because in head-to-head you time oftentimes see someone lean into the like guy who's great at three things and also terrible at three things and you instead went more well-rounded with your first round pick with KD and I'm so much interested in how you feel about Kevin Durant because I love KD he's unbelievably well-rounded like easy top 12 guy all the time but why go the well-rounded route instead of the like polar up polar down Route that you're seeing so much of in head-to-head these days honestly in nine cat High turnover scare me that's kind of why I I I Look to avoid Trey young in nine cat I think he will be better this year just because no Deon Murray it'll be his show it it always was his show but you don't have another point guard in a lineup now so I think he'll be better but the turnovers always concerned me and I try my first round pick I tend to try to go with guys who can potentially win as many categories as possible so that's why I that was the other reason why I went with KD in that spot is there someone else like uh were you hoping someone would get to you at 10 that didn't or was KD a guy that you were targeting to begin with I was hoping for Tatum um but that was kind of a pipe dream yeah um at the 10 spot I didn't really like the 10 spot you know personally yeah it might be it might be the worst spot this year because you're not like everybody says oh seven is hard because there's no one that's going to make a choice for you but at 10 it's almost the same but just with fewer of the the options that people don't really want to use to start their team have you when you play head-to-head if you're leaning away from turnovers what do you think about this this group like the seven through 13 range it's it's a really confusing spot that I think we're all kind of like you can make an argument for and against basically every single dude in that run yeah I don't know I think the one person that I'm like dying to avoid from that group would be embiid just because of the the medical history um last year he he' done well up to last season two seasons prior I believe um but yeah he was in the 60s which is win for him but then you know you're coming off of a your injury shortened season where he came back had another procedure after the playoffs then played in the Olympics um that's something we're going to be working on for the draft guy kind of looking at the potential impact of playing in the Olympics on some of these guys and that kind of concerned me because his playing time was up and down but he was still playing basketball like how competitive basketball and for someone with his injury history I think that's a bit of a concern like and you're not definitely not going to let embiid fall out of the first round but he's a guy for me that he's I'm leaning towards a do not draft lit for him personally it's an interesting uh there's two things that I want to pull away from that before and and I know we're um we're winding down here but I had a couple more questions talking to Rafael Johnson at rafhael J of roto world basketball um so on the embiid front and then also on the Olympics front and um Dan Titus and Adam King and I were talking about this on on an episode of between two dance yesterday uh this concept of like how much do we take away from the Olympics and I think we ended up kind of settling on like look for things that are extremely unusual yeah and maybe ignore the guys who just like quietly were fine during the Olympics like look I don't want Anthony Davis putting more miles on his body but he was fine he played looked healthy like nothing went wrong for ad think he what he like I'm sure he landed funny at one point but he he does that once every four ball game so can't really worry about it but then there's the other side of like Jamal Murray who looked wrong and embiid until frankly the last two games he just didn't look good at all in the Olympics and then they needed his offense and he sort of kicked it up a little bit is that also kind of how you fall on how to interpret players in the Olympics without without getting into the exact specifics of what's going to be in that Rota World article yeah I would say so um it's tough because you think back to Tokyo those are really strange Olympics where they were played in a bubble you know so it's right completely different set of circumstances and also played a year after they were supposed to be played so there's so many different variables when you compare Tokyo and then before that 2016 I can't even remember where 2016 the Olympics were but you know that's besides the point but it's a different it's a different lifetime M go man yeah I think you guys are on to something with that you're kind of looking for outliers in terms of roles and also how guys played it was in Brazil by the way I looked oh yeah I I worked those Olympics I should know better Rio yeah getting old man but you know me both but yeah that's that's kind of the thing where you're looking for those outliers whether it be like a way a guy looked way they their role within the system like Tatum not playing as much maybe he doesn't maybe you aren't as concerned about him as some other guys because he really wasn't in a rotation for most of the Olympics so I think those are kind of things that you're looking for when you're assessing the impact the potential impact of the Olympics on The Following season last question very last one this time I promise uh on the Joel embiid front there this this argument and this is like this is going on in my head literally every moment of every day because I'm a sick individual and I need other things to think about but there comes a point when the the players around embiid on the draft board now we're back to Fantasy again instead of reality are so much worse than him per game that you start to think to yourself okay uh at what point am I no longer able to beat some of these other teams that have say wemi and joic with their first round pick unless I take the big swing on Mid how do you how do you balance that in your brain because that one's one that's going to be eating me up literally until the moment I make my first round pick in every League I'm in yeah that's tough like man that's do with that one yeah that I I think if anything that just makes your second and third round picks even more important yeah I don't know if you if that makes you less inclined to take a swing with either one of those or more inclined to do so I would I would lean towards less inclined just because you want to have that reliable value in terms of availability and production um I know Adam in his build he took Devin Booker and then bam out of Bio so he's got cover right there in terms of bam in case Joel were to suffer an injury you have another highlevel Center you know in an early round pick so I think maybe that entered his thinking and I would be more inclined to do something like that than to take a swing on someone where you're not sure if you're going to get that high level value yeah but you don't want to pile up too many risks on that front it's a tough it's a tough question and I don't think there's a a right or wrong or perfect answer to it it's just like okay you know I got the 11th pick embiid is still there the other guy that's there for me is like you know deonis sabonis I gotta go and beat now if you know if sabonis is my first round pick I'm not going to beat the team that started with nicoa yic and my best case scenario is like second place in this league and so I I got to take the swing but then like you said you kind of have to buttress that with some other ideas and it's and actually this is I'll mention something uh on the show after you go but exploring the Joel embiid risk factor is something that uh we'll probably cover on a a one of the episodes tomorrow on this show uh Rett Bower has been working in secret on what he calls a Joel embiid proof build where you can win big with him and you can survive without him and I'm very excited to see what re came up with because that dud that dude's brain is crazy uh and sometimes crazy in a frightening way um Ru you're I'm officially letting you go I asked you two two extra questions I squeezed them in at the end here uh Rafael Johnson Rafael J on Twitter he is the pride of roto world and apparently lives in Tucson and not on the East Coast because I'm an idiot uh thanks so much man for Caron out time today all right thanks for having me rapael Johnson hitting us with the other side the other side of the lamelo ball discussion I'm really glad I really truly am glad that we finally got someone on the show that was a little bit still afraid of Lamela ball because it kind of seems like everybody is just forgotten about last year at the first hint of ankle braces and to quote the great Shooter McGavin everybody everybody's in on this yeah well and then what is the guy I think his name is Doug he says something like yeah he's been been well I'm not Doug I'm not Doug I'm also afraid of Lamela ball in the middle of the second round I had like I told ra I had one team last year with Lamela ball on it and that team got buried just freaking buried I was right in the mix through four weeks and then just buried or whatever it was maybe made it six weeks or something like that it wasn't it wasn't enough though it was not enough here's by the way the rest of Rafael's uh team from the mock draft he went Kevin Durant in the first slot Anthony Edwards dearen Fox Evan Mobley miles turer Brandon Miller uh Jaylen green Trey Murphy the third Derek Lively Chris Paul Hae hakz Jr amen Thompson Josh Hart and Jonathan Isaac uh I'm I'm with every passing moment I'm becoming more and more in on Amen Thompson where he's getting drafted you know what I I think I got a little bit surprised by by the way kudos to Matt Lawson on yesterday's show for um redirecting my gaze I uh I had sort of like looked at all of the the Thompson stuff with shenon out and in my mind I was like okay well shanon's back but also Thompson's likely played his way ahead of a bunch of the other dudes on that team and really only needs about 25 26 minutes to be a top 80 to 90 range fantasy dude so the upside he's one of those guys that's going late where you're like okay I actually see the built-in upside here he has a floor of you know whatever like if he only gets 20 minutes a game obviously that's not good enough but for someone who's getting drafted what where is he at he's 127 on the Yahoo board right now talking about Thompson uh like he just he doesn't that's going to cost you that's an 11th round pick yeah that's that's an obvious 11th round pick because the other guys going in that range are either the very safe no upside floor guys so like a kcp a Gary Trent something like that uh they're there are the guys around him that are I don't know like I don't I'm not sure what everybody see like you got Horford who I'm interested in and then you got all these other guys that have no Pathway to nine cat value like I don't I don't I don't dislike Shaden sharp but also you know unless there's a marked change marked change in field goal percent there's no there's no hope there that dude shoot shot 41% last year on volume he was not a big steals Guy he's not a big blocks guy he's not a big assist guy it was points some rebounds some threes and a brutal field goal percent like I and and this is not me picking on Shaden sharp maybe his field goal percent does jump from 41 to 47 or 48 or something like that maybe maybe something wild happens and that's how someone like that turns a corner but with amen Thompson the point I was trying to make is not that I don't like Shan sharp although I'm not going to draft him the point is that with amen Thompson you don't need those things to happen the fantasy stat set was already good enough those guys don't tend to punch around late in a draft like that think of it from this perspective uh anybody outside the top 10 Rounds so the Yahoo board 121 on how many of those guys have a fantasy game and you guys are all looking still YouTubers are still looking at uh at Rafael Johnson's mock draft I'll leave it there by the way uh like rate and subscribe midow reminder please like rate and subscribe I forgot to take a commercial break so they'll just get inserted when they get inserted oopsies but as here you know what rapid fire some names here for you and how many of these guys have the fantasy stat set in nineat where in even in starters minutes even in starters minutes tell me how many of these guys in starters minutes would have nine cat value at top 100 or better Dennis shuder no Andrew neard no and I'm talking about if nothing else happs happens for this team so like with shuder you know if the Nets move one other guy there's a chance he gets there with nard a couple guys probably need to get hurt that's how he would end up doing enough assists basically sharp currently no keante George not if you're not punting a couple things Malik monk same story need to be punting Horford yeah in starters minutes nineat value he'll have it amen Thompson he'd have it Trace Jackson Davis he would have it in starters minutes Kelly oen would have it but he ain't playing starters minutes Josh Hart not going to have starters minutes so this is the other thing like even if these guys did have starters minutes would it get there Gary Trent barely Aaron Gordon punt free throw kcp barely wend Carter Jr no said starters minutes for multiple years he can't get inside the top 115 basically Brandon pjy I don't think so Clarkson no healed I mean yes but he's not playing starters minutes that's the thing so you're looking for a guy that has the fantasy profile forget starters minutes maybe I should be asking how many of these guys could get there in 24 25 minutes the answer is out of 30 players that I'm looking at on one particular 30 span of Yahoo players if this guy if these guys got 25 minutes on a court would they have top 100 value for Horford yeah amen Thompson yeah Trace Jackson Davis Maybe Daniel Gafford there's one in 25 minutes he could get there that's it for that 30 span and you go farther down the board it gets worse so you might as well look at a guy and I why got sidetracked by a men Thompson here but it's really more of like a draft strategy how do you pick the guys you're targeting after 120 look at the guys who get have nine cat value top 100 better in 25 minutes start from there and then you can Branch out obviously we're going to look at each one one of these players individually because some of them will get more minutes than that some are going to get less make your calls from there you know Gary Trent Jr in his bucks role probably needs 32 33 minutes a game to crack the top 100 kcp same kind of story but they have a better shot of getting there than I don't know Brandon psky Jordan Clarkson like try to gauge where the minutes are coming from and then what they actually turned into all right we'll put a pin in this one keep this one on the more brief side you're a fan of the brevity thing the dude was a fan of the brevity thing big thank you once again to rapael Johnson of R world for hopping on the show with us today we went over Rafael's three guys he wanted to talk about and some mock or real I guess draft strategy what to do if you're towards the end of that first round and RF in an interesting twist he's also I think been the first person to come on the show and said even in head-to-head you can start with a well-rounded player and you can still be okay and the reason for that and we probably should have gotten a little bit farther into that is you just open yourself up for other options it's why I like jic over wemi still at the top of the draft you just give yourself more Avenues because think of it this way if rth took Trey young at 10 and the correct pairing player didn't come around to him after that whoever that might have been uh you know with Trey young you pair him with deonis sabonis if you want to wipe out the the heavy guard build or maybe you go you know Donovan Mitchell or uh lamelo ball if you're trusting him or James Harden if you want to lean into the guard build if those guys are not there and then you're suddenly like o Trey young and Devin Booker together kind of a weird build Trey young and Anthony Edwards together weird build but if you go KD you can pretty much go with any of those other dudes and that second pick starts to dictate which direction your team goes instead of the first it's almost like kicking the can down the road a little bit say I'm going to have great foundational piece because K Kevin Durant is a positive in points in I think it was boards last year too I can triple check myself on this where was KD and Boards yeah barely small positive in threes boards assists positive in blocks uh League average in steals positive in field goal free throw his turnovers were weirdly high but I bet they come down this year for KD and so then then you say all right if I have Kevin Durant in the first I can make up I can decide what my team build is going to look like my second round pick you can do that with Luca you can do that with jic you can do it a little bit with maybe Jason Tatum although maybe not quite as much he has a little more of the up and down Shay there's a little bit of that as well the difference for me between going you know Shay early and Kevin Durant late in the first round is that early in the first round maybe that's not the right way to frame it the guys that are big time positive in things like a Victor wanyama it's just more intense than like a Trey young the negatives are smaller the positives are bigger so at the back end of the first round when you're like you know I'm gonna I'm going to use my second round pick to decide my team is going to look like the guys in the second round are still better than the ones going towards the end of it and then also you don't have access to the game breaker type of players like joic like wemi like Luca if his playoff schedule was better all right now we're actually going to wrap it up uh coming up later on today here on Thursday we're going to be breaking down picks 25 or 26 excuse me not 25 26 through 50 on the brand new Yahoo board those seem to be uh crowd favorites and I've put it off for a couple of days so we'll get into that now tomorrow very EXC Ed Rhett and I are picking out a time to record I am going to be sitting back and enjoying because Rhett's been working as I mentioned on a secret plan to draft Joel embiid in the first round and not have your team completely ruined if embiid goes down for two months in the middle of the season this is a potential lifechanging moment for all of us and I can't wait to hear what he's figured out also on tomorrow uh on old man squad fantasy basketball we'll have two episodes again on Friday second episode will likely take us through the weekend that will be uh either the um Steals and busts on the new board or we can get into some of those late round guys because uh those are I mean that's the stuff that everybody wants to hear first we'll get those into you guys uh before your very early drafts are taking place and then over the weekend we'll knock out two most likely of our remaining three team previews we are almost almost finally done with those and when they're done weekends become mock draft time much to all of your Delights I'm sure I'm Dan bpis thanks again to RF Dan bpis on Twitter at Oldman Squad please like and rate and subscribe all of those things continue to help immeasurably our YouTube page is
