October 31, 2017 15:30 - 32 minutesDFSR's Doug Norrie and James Davis take to the Tuesday podcast discussing a shorter slate of NBA games. This is an odd group of games considering half the team (Suns, Nets, Kings, Lakers) have significant questions about their minutes and rotations. They are incredibly difficult teams to project on a game-to-game basis because their incentives are to lose. It could make for a frustrating and volatile night.

October 18, 2017 14:00 - 50 minutesDFSR’ Doug Norrie and James Davis take to the first NBA podcast of the year discussing a huge Wednesday in basketball. Coming off a crazy first night of action that saw a brutal Gordon Hayward injury and a near buzzer-beater by Kevin Durant, tonight shapes up well with a lot of interesting matchups and some speculation about players on new teams.

April 18, 2017 14:00 - 26 minutesDFSR’s Doug Norrie and James Davis take to the NBA podcast to discuss the three game Tuesday slate of games.

April 14, 2017 14:30 - 41 minutesThe DFSR crew of James Davis and Doug Norrie take to a Friday NBA podcast to discuss Saturday’s first round playoff matchups. There’s a lot to unpack here with teams rounding out their rotations after a late season of uncertainty in the league.

Friday NBA DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 4/7/17
April 07, 2017 14:00 - 39 minutesDFSR's Doug Norrie and James Davis break down a big Friday in the NBA. There's a lot to consider here starting with Russell Westbrook and whether we can pay some crazy salaries in a dream matchup against the Suns. Long story short: we can.

Plus there's some frustrating talk about the Lakers and Kings who will engage in an epic tank-off tonight. Al...
Thursday NBA DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 4/6/17
April 06, 2017 16:00 - 30 minutesDFSR's Doug Norrie and James Davis take to the NBA pod to discuss a smaller slate of NBA action. This late in the season there are still a few teams playing for the playoffs and seeding, while others are actively tanking. The Magic are in a great spot tonight against the terrible Nets and basically Orlando's entire starting five is in play for cash games. Aaron Gordon likely becomes the chalk play of the bunch, but you can consider all of the Magic tonight. Jimmy Butler, Giannis and Karl-...
Tuesday NBA DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 4/4/17
April 04, 2017 16:30 - 1 hourIt’s a packed Tuesday pod with the NBA returning from their relative one-day hiatus.

They also discuss some of the punt-style point guards like Ron Baker, Matthew Dellavedova and Jamal Murray. Then there’s whether Russell Westbroo...
Thursday NBA DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 3/30/17
March 30, 2017 14:00 - 30 minutesDFSR’s Doug Norrie and James Davis take to the NBA to discuss a five game slate of NBA action for FanDuel and DraftKings. For such a short slate there are a bunch of bad defenses going like the Nets, Suns and Lakers. The Pistons have some value highlighted by Ish Smith if Reggie Jackson were to sit again tonight. He’s still coming rather cheap on both sites considering he should see a lion’s share of the point guard minutes. The Timberwolves are also in a great spot against a bad Lakers te...
Tuesday NBA DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 3/28/17
March 28, 2017 15:30 - 44 minutesDFSR’s Doug Norrie and James Davis take to a Tuesday pod to talk a packed night in the NBA. The game of the night is clearly the Warriors and the Rockets. James Harden likely becomes a big money chalk play on a night with a ton of value in other positions. The guys discuss how to view Harden, if Eric Gordon and Lou Williams get more minutes and whether we see big run out of the Warriors’ big three in Curry, Klay and Draymond. Other value creeping up comes from the Hawks against the Suns wit...
Friday NBA DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 3/24/17
March 24, 2017 14:30 - 1 hourDFSR’s Doug Norrie and James Davis break down a huge night in the NBA. They start with a discussion on why DraftKings may have left off the two 10:30 games from their main slate and how that could show a change in how the industry views NBA injury news. After that, there’s an embarrassment of riches in terms of value tonight with a bunch of big money guys in plays matchups. James Harden leads the list, taking on a New Orleans team that he lit up for 70+ fantasy points just last week. D...
Thursday NBA DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 3/23/17
March 23, 2017 14:00 - 31 minutesDFSR’s Doug Norrie and James Davis break down a five game NBA slate for FanDuel and DraftKings. The two most interesting games, from a DFS perspective come early with Toronto-Miami and Brooklyn-Phoenix. The Heat will be without Dion Waiters again which puts Goran Dragic, James Johnson and Josh Richardson firmly in play. Toronto will be without a suspended Serge Ibaka leaving (potentially) more shots for Demar Derozan, PJ Tucker and Cory Joseph. The guys also break down a Suns-Nets game that...
Wednesday NBA DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 3/22/17
March 22, 2017 16:00 - 39 minutesDFSR’s Doug Norrie takes to a solo pod to break down an eight game Wednesday slate in the NBA. The first question to ask is whether we should pay all the way up for Russell Westbrook after his disappointing games against the Warriors on Monday. OKC is big favorites against the Sixers in a game that could turn into a blowout early. Other games to focus on include the Hawks and Wizards. Atlanta is still without Paul Millsap and Kent Bazemore, leaving plenty of minutes for guys like Tim Hardaw...
Tuesday NBA DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 3/21/17
March 21, 2017 14:30 - 50 minutesDFSR’s Doug Norrie and James Davis take to the pod to discuss an eight game slate in the NBA for FanDuel and DraftKings. The obvious team to start targeting is the Detroit Pistons facing the woeful Brooklyn Nets. But can you trust their minutes? They discuss the mystery of Reggie Jackson’s minutes and whether he’s actually a safe play at $5,000 on FanDuel. Then there’s Andre Drummond, KCP, Morris and Tobias Harris in contention against the best DFS matchup on the board. They also break do...

March 17, 2017 14:00 - 57 minutesDFSR’s Doug Norrie and James Davis take a deep dive on an eight game NBA slate for FanDuel and DraftKings. The big story today is injuries to some key players. Dwayne Wade is out for the rest of the season meaning Jimmy Butler gets a major bump in expected usage and Rajon Rondo likely seeing continued huge minutes at the starting point guard. Also, Isaiah Thomas will sit for the Celtics putting Marcus Smart in as the starter. He’s likely a chalk play with the rest of the Celtics seeing mode...
Thursday NBA DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 3/16/17
March 16, 2017 14:00 - 32 minutesDFSR’s Doug Norrie and James Davis take to the NBA podcast to discuss a six game slate of games. There’s a ton of injury news to digest coming this early. Blake Griffin, DeAndre Jordan, Danilo Gallinari and Wilson Chandler all sitting out tonight. That’s going to open up a ton of value from that game in particular. Will Barton, Juan Hernangomez and Marreese Speights all come in as strong value plays. Additionally, Kristaps Porzingis will sit for the Knicks opening up usage considerations fo...
Wednesday NBA DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 3/15/17
March 15, 2017 13:30 - 28 minutesDFSR’s Doug Norrie takes to solo NBA discussing a full Wednesday in the Association. The big story tonight is fading the blowout. Teams like the Spurs and Rockets are in very solid matchups, but come in with big Vegas lines on their sides. We’ll have to make some decisions about whether we think those starters see the fourth quarters in their respective games. Other pieces of news out there include Nic Batum sitting again making Jeremy Lamb likely a popular play again and Kemba Walker seein...
Tuesday NBA DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 3/14/17
March 14, 2017 13:00 - 32 minutesDFSR’s Doug Norrie and James Davis take a look at a five game schedule in the NBA. The major piece of news we’ll be waiting on today is how weather could effect the games in Brooklyn and New York. With a snowstorm there we could see these games postponed. Stay tuned for that news. Outside of that major waiting game, there’s solid value on this slate. If everything goes off without a hitch then you likely see Russell Westbrook and Victor Oladipo chalk plays against a defensively-deficient Br...

March 10, 2017 15:00 - 46 minutesDFSR’s Doug Norrie and James Davis jump on a Friday podcast to take a look at an 8-game NBA slate. That’s a few less games than your normal Friday but there’s still plenty to discuss. The big story for today is finding out injury news on key players. Nikola Vucevic’s status plays a huge part in how we view the Magic, specifically Bismack Biyombo, Elfrid Payton, Aaron Gordon and Evan Fournier. Then there’s Nikola Jokic and Danilo Gallinari who are dealing with sickness and vertigo respective...
Thursday NBA DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 3/9/17
March 09, 2017 15:00 - 40 minutesDFSR’s Doug Norrie and James Davis break down a Thursday of NBA action with five games on the slate. The highest total of the night, by far, is the Suns and Lakers who come in at a whopping 230 implied points. It should be an up and down affair with guys like D’Angelo Russell, Julius Randle, Brandon Ingram, Alan Williams and TJ Warren looking very solid for cash games. There’s also the Spurs taking on the Thunder with Kawhi Leonard likely coming in as a chalk play across both sites. They di...

Some of the more interesting teams include the Hornets who are going to be without Kaminsky, the Bulls who may be without Butler and Wade, the Rockets po...
Tuesday NBA DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 3/7/17
March 07, 2017 15:30 - 30 minutesThe DFSR crew of Doug Norrie and James Davis take to the pod to discuss the three-game slate of NBA action. For only three games there’s a lot to consider with a couple of really high Vegas totals. They start the discussion with Russell Westbrook and how highly owned he is even at more than $13000 on both sites. Then they break down the Trailblazers situation coming off the postponement from last night. The Mavs are in a great spot against the fast-paced, no defense LA Lakers with really ...

March 06, 2017 16:00 - 35 minutesDFSR’s Doug Norrie returns to the podcast to discuss a huge Monday in the NBA.

February 23, 2017 14:30 - 33 minutesDFSR’s Doug Norrie takes to another solo NBA pod discussing the first day back from the All-Star Break. It seems like we never left. Today’s a really interesting one considering it’s also the trade deadline and we could see some players on the move from the games going down this evening. It will mean monitoring news and making adjustments on the fly. Obviously the big piece of speculation for tonight is how Demarcus Cousins and Anthony Davis fit together on the Pelicans. While almost defini...
Thursday NBA DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 2/16/17
February 16, 2017 14:30 - 23 minutesDFSR’s Doug Norrie takes to a quick Thursday NBA podcast to talk about a small two-game slate for FanDuel and DraftKings. Even though it’s only two games there’s still plenty of DFS relevant issues to discuss. The major one is whether or not Dwayne Wade plays tonight. His availability effects the projections for just about the whole Bulls’ team, Jimmy Butler most notably. But there’s also Michael Carter-Williams and some other bench pieces to consider as well. The Wizards-Pacers game has pl...

Even with such a short Valentine’s Day slate there’s plenty to discuss. Some injury news we’ll want to check in on throughout the day starts with whether the Bulls will sit both Jimmy Butler and Dwayne Wade again. If so, then Michael Carter-Williams should see plenty of minutes though it’s less clear about the rest of the team. There’s also the Cavs without Kevin Love tonight and...

February 13, 2017 14:00 - 47 minutesDFSR’s Doug Norrie takes to a solo, on-the-road NBA podcast to discuss a huge Monday in the NBA. There’s a ton to break down with some cheaper values already creeping to the forefront this early in the day. Some of the more relevant games include a Sixer-Charlotte affair with Nerlens Noel coming in at a great price considering Philly’s without Embiid and Okafor. On the Charlotte side you could see another start from Frank Kaminsky and Kemba Walker is coming cheap on FanDuel thanks to some r...
Thursday NBA DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 2/9/17
February 09, 2017 15:00 - 33 minutesDFSR’s Doug Norrie and James Davis take a look at a five game NBA slate for FanDuel and DraftKings. The big news here is the Cavs likely sitting their big three in Lebron James, Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love. That leaves Cleveland incredibly thin across the board and we could see steady doses of most of the cheap Cavs’ players. This will be the piece of news to monitor as we get closer to lineup lock. After that we can likely safely get big money in on Russell Westbrook and James Harden becau...
Wednesday NBA DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 2/8/17
February 08, 2017 15:00 - 44 minutesDFSR’s Doug Norrie takes to a solo podcast to break down a huge 12 game NBA slate for FanDuel and DraftKings.

There’s also the Cavs who could be without Iman Shumpert tonight and the Pistons squaring up against a fast-pace/...
Tuesday NBA DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 2/7/17
February 07, 2017 17:00 - 31 minutesDFSR’s Doug Norrie and James Davis take a look at an interesting three game slate in the NBA. Sometimes these small slates can get a little tricky but this one looks packed with value. A lot of that comes from the Hornets getting to face the Nets who of course are the team we always want to target against in DFS. Playing four Hornets is totally in play with Kemba Walker and Nic Batum likely coming in as chalk. James Harden is another chalk play against the Magic though we do need to worry s...

February 02, 2017 15:00 - 33 minutesDFSR’s Doug Norrie and James Davis take a look at a four game NBA slate for FanDuel and DraftKings. They go game-by-game discussing the DFS implications of each on a night with a lot of blowout risk. Every game has a -8 or higher line heading in and that definitely causes some concern with players not seeing fourth quarters if the games are getting out of hand. They talk about James Harden and how he’s likely the chalk play going in. There’s also discussion of the Wizards and how the team’s...
Wednesday NBA DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 2/1/17

Dear Derozan will sit again making Kyle Lowry and Norman Powell fantastic values for the relative usage and minutes increases they’ll see against the Celtics.

Tuesday NBA DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 1/31/17

He talks about the big money guys like James Harden in a slower matchup against the Kings and Russell Westbrook with a bad matchup against the Spurs. That leaves us possibly stomaching Anthony Davis who’s always an injury waiting ...
Monday NBA Value Plays for FanDuel and DraftKings - 1/30/17
January 30, 2017 17:30 - 30 secondsIt’s a Monday solo NBA pod with Doug Norrie as he breaks down the action for a 5-game slate. The big injury news today is Kevin Love sitting and how that effects the rest of the Cavs’ usage and opportunity. It stands to reason Lebron James is a chalk play on this slate and Kyrie irving definitely sees a usage bump as well. We will likely have to wait and see on who starts in Love’s place but Channing Frye would be an interesting punt if he saw significant minutes with Lebron. The Heat are i...
Friday NBA DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 1/27/17
January 27, 2017 16:00 - 59 minutesIt’s another DFSR NBA solo podcast today with Doug Norrie talking a very uncertain slate of Friday NBA action. As of the time of the recording, half of the games didn’t have Vegas lines as we wait for a bunch of injury news to flush out. Doug goes game-by-game and breaks down things to look out for and who would stand to see increased value in injury situations. It’s a tough nut to crack this early in the day as we are waiting on news about Joel Embiid, Demar Derozan, Kawhi Leonard and Hass...

Then they weight the safety in a guy like Carm...
Tuesday NBA Value Plays for FanDuel and DraftKings - 1/17/17
January 17, 2017 16:00 - 32 minutesComing off a crazy holiday slate of Monday basketball, things look to stabilize a bit in the NBA tonight as we get back to our normal main slate start times. The guys talk about how the Nets are playing tonight which likely means once again loading up on Raptors like Kyle Lowry, Demar Derozan and Demarre Carroll. They also discuss the Nuggets’ situation at length with Gary Harris likely out tonight. They could free up a lot of minutes for Emmanuel Mudiay and Jameer Nelson. But there’s also ...
