Fantasy Benchwarmers

Fantasy Benchwarmers with JJT & Eric Go

Welcome fellow Fantasy Benchwarmers! We created created this channel because like you we love to make believe that we are NBA fantasy basketball experts (we are not) and enjoy talking about the game, the players and the experience. In this space we share our experiences, tips, opinions and commentaries about playing the game of fantasy basketball. We are not claiming that we are experts, so take any of our tips with a little grain of salt.

S03DFQ136 - Oh my Hoard! The Jaylen that's winning me...

Fantasy Benchwarmers ·

2022/04/09

We expect nothing less really. This year's silly season hero could just be Jaylen Hoard who again gave fantasy managers some KAT-like numbers. If you picked him up for the final week, chances are you are on your way to a title. The OKC Thunder played only 6 guys today with Isaiah Roby playing less than 20 minutes, so technically they played 5 guys for pretty much the whole game. Crazy! On judgement day, don't be surprised to see all your key players rest while players like Hoard take centerstage one

S03DFQ135 - Silly season got sillier! More "unknown"...

Fantasy Benchwarmers ·

2022/04/07

At this point a new guy can come along and play for some tanking team and just win you your fantasy league. The past few days names like Jaylen Hoard, Braxton Key, Isaiah Livers, Keon Johnson are the guys you'd want to have represent your fantasy teams. And these guys could be cut anytime (see Olivier Sarr) so just ride them out while they are hot. What also made this time of the season sillier is that in the midst of all these "unkown" names, there is a returnee that could also make an impact. Norm

S03DFQ134 - Week 24 Schedule Breakdown

Fantasy Benchwarmers ·

2022/04/05

We're at the final week of fantasy basketball and this is where streaming gets exciting and annoying. There will be players who we will hear for the first time but will be very fantasy relevant this week. And if you think rests were annoying the past weeks, wait till this week when the playoff picture starts to take shape and get finalized. In this episode, we take a look into the schedule for week 24 and how to strategize your streaming. Catch us in any of these podcast platforms! Apple Podcast:

2022/04/02

And so it begins. This is the time of the season when unknowns become fantasy heroes. Players like Robert Covington, not really an unknown, become stars just because the real superstars take the day off. Never heard of names like Isaiah Livers, Lindy Waters or Jaylen Hoard transform from "bench player that seldom gets off the bench" to major pickup that can win you your fantasy matchup. We call it the silly season fantasy and it's fun! Alright I know we try to stay away from having playoff schedules

With the fantasy season nearing its end, there's not much as much to talk about now other than our usual waiver pickups and playoff strategies.

Fantasy Benchwarmers ·

2022/03/29

Robert Williams III ends his stellar fantasy season with a meniscus tear while Evan Mobley went down with an ankle injury and is in danger of also ending his fantasy season early for managers still playing. Not the way we really want to end the season as these big men were most likely crucial players to managers' fantasy playoff runs. The semi good news could be the possible return of Anthony Davis and Paul George. Could they make it on time for managers still playing for fantasy title? Well if they

Fantasy Benchwarmers ·

2022/03/28

It's judgement day and as with our weekly playoff judgement day, stories are plenty. Today was no different and this one is probably something that commish Eric will remember for a long time. For week 23, Lebron James injured his ankle during today's game and the words during his presser did not sound good. He could miss time, and that could be big for his owners, but this is Lebron James and the Los Angeles Lakers are on the brink of even missing out the play-in tournament being just one game ahead

Fantasy Benchwarmers ·

2022/03/25

We were surprised! We have to admit, we thought Chris Paul will be back later this week or in week 23. But I guess he was ready and boy, he did not miss a beat! CP3 was classic CP3 as he and Devin Booker led the Phoenix Suns in clinching the best record in the NBA and home court advantage throughout the playoffs. Booker, to the dismay of commish Eric, exploded with a complete fantasy line and the timing for his owners is just perfect! If you were able to pick-up CP3 for the fantasy playoffs, he

S03DFQ126 - Will De'Aaron Fox still play?

Fantasy Benchwarmers ·

2022/03/23

It's been a pretty disappointing season for De'Aaron Fox and from the way it looks the ending might not be as good. With Fox ailing from an injured hand and the Sacramento Kings playing for nothing, will we still see Fox play? Lots of rest already propping up, so I took some time to complain about the Daily-Tomorrow format we have in one of our oldest league and how that setting is just messing up our streaming for these playoffs.

Fantasy Benchwarmers ·

2022/03/22

Biggest news in today's fantasy radar is the possibility of Chris Paul coming back. If this were the regular season, it's a no brainer - he is an add. But this is a playoffs and one move for a player who is not sure to play yet could be a risk. So is he worth a move? One of the players that could probably be a top 5 stash that did not pan out as expected is Alperen Sengun. But if you picked him up during these playoffs, he could be that help you need. Yes we did not see the Sengun unleashed as

2022/03/21

Judgement day has always been exciting, but playoff judgement day is on a whole different level. The games become exciting even if they're a blowout, lots of unexpected heroes and even more annoying stat lines. Today was no different. I even thought I can pull off the greatest comeback in my fantasy basketball life! Waking up at 3am of the morning to check how some of your players are doing and not getting back to sleep and then going straight to work while still checking scores. It is fun until you

Fantasy Benchwarmers ·

2022/03/18

As of this writing, Steph Curry's fantasy season looks to be over as his sprained food could cost him 3-4 weeks. But we talk about some non-fantasy stuff in this quickie on whether that was a dirty play by Marcus Smart or not. We all know the players to benefit here fantasy-wise: Jordan Poole, maybe Klay Thompson. Aside from the buy players we have, we also did some chatter about the Los Angeles Lakers, who have been so frustrating to watch, an eye sore. Catch us in any of these podcast

S03DFQ120 - Was Kyrie Irving worth the season long...

Fantasy Benchwarmers ·

2022/03/16

Wow! Kyrie had 41 I think in one half, and then he ended up with 60 points. Which brings me to the question, with Kyrie giving some first round type numbers whenever he plays, was he worth the season long stash and being the road warrior for you team? On the other hand, we have one player who was drafted early to mid second round, who probably has missed a ton of games that I am now annoyed and would probably not draft him again unless he falls to the mid to late rounds next year. Yeah, it's Jimmy

What a way to start week 21! Lots of great performances that was led by Karl Anthony-Towns who dropped 60 versus the San Antonio Spurs! This performance came a day too late as my KAT teams got eliminated yesterday and today I am against commish's team that has him and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (Yeah, he is still playing, while others have rested)! Now commish has a nice headstart to our Champions League match up! Steph Curry celebrated his birthday with his own gem of a fantasy line! With Draymond

2022/03/14

Today was a crazy judgement day. There were some losers that may have caused you your matchups but there were a lot of winners as well that would've made a big difference if you decided to stream them. Imagine, Markelle Fultz today had 11 assists and 3 steals. Duane Washington in back to back games scored a total of 41 points and around 7 threes. Jose Alvarado probably had the streamer line of the day - 16 points, 10 assists and 6 steals! We also talk about our playoff stories and some

We recorded an early quickie to help you stream for tomorrow's judgement day. We share more playoff stories and talk about some players to stream for tomorrow and the categories they may help you with. Not a long episode so you can get on and add your players. BUT be wary also of rests that are no longer an end of season kind of thing and more of a "when the coach feels like it" situation. Catch us in any of these podcast platforms!
