NBA Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Advice 5/7/16

Hello!

I have a DK line up here, mind taking a gander on it? Im going to be submitting my line ups for 50/50 and GPP.

I guess my question would be how is my line up looking from Bogut to Ross, thank you.

@mramo can you please go to your admin and updated your user name to remove your email. I personally don't recommend playing cash games in the playoffs or on two game slates. For your lineup I am ot a fan of McCollum at all. He is in an awful match-up and has not really been performing. I don't mind Bogut as a punt play. I do like Crabbe better than Ross in the cheap range just based on minutes.

i've since changed it, thanks! Ill take a gamble, but in your opinion what should i be playing during p/o season?

here is the updated one. I have d. green in another, this one just seems the more well rounded one.

@manny Green is my top rated player and your only viable option so I have a hard time fading him. I don't mind your updated lineup however. Honestly if you are going to still play NBA DFS in the post season I would only play GPPs.

DK GPP lineup.... I have a lineup with Dray in it but here's mine without him... Although fading him is probably not advisable, I found it to be the easiest way to differentiate my lineup from the majority of the field. What's your take?

@nastypat I understand the logic in fading him but it is a mistake. Sometimes being different is the wrong thing to do and in this case it is the wrong thing to do.

I understand where you're coming from... With that being said, doing well in a GPP requires being contrarian, especially on a small slate. Where would you suggest I switch it up

Going contraian is always a smart thing to do but it there is a time to be contraian and a time not to be. Going away from the other popular players on this slate ie Dragic, Jonas, Thompson is how I would separate myself.

dk gpp

yeah, that's a good strategy for sure. I can't seem to fade JV until he hits 8k lol. I came up with another DK GPP lineup. Do you think this is a better look?

in addition, I have a sneaking suspicion that Lowry will show up today... What's your take on him

@nastypat I like the updated lineup. My take on Lowry is that he is hurt and if it wasn't the playoffs he wouldn't be in the lineup. While Lowry may go off I don't see it happening.

@NastyPat25 I'm not going to argue with you about dropping Green on your first lineup. I wouldn't, but your theory makes perfect sense. What I will say is that barring injury it's about a 1% chance Ed Davis could outscore him. There are no options after Draymond.

@nygiants No issue with that lineup.

@MannyBPKing Like I told NastyPat. If you're whole game plan is to sit Green to change things up then so be it. Just understand the odds are terrible of Davis outscoring Green. In the playoffs you need your team to be almost perfect to win. With this slate, saving the $$$ probably isn't worth it either.

@coolcutter21 I agree, and I ended up swapping him in to all of my lineups. My only rationale behind it was that I may be able to make up the production at other places, such as doubling up C with Whiteside and JV.

Last lineup, I swear lol. I found a way to fit in quite a few good plays in this DK GPP lineup, but it comes at the cost of punting SG and G. What do you think?

@nastypat I am not a fan of that lineup I don't think punting SG is worth it to play Whitside

@NastyPat25 Yea I hear you and it makes sense usually. But with just two games, extra money can only help so much due to the lack of options.

I agree with Zach. I don't mind punting with Ross or Henderson. Just not both.
