I play caption showdown any strategy for me tonight u would suggest! New to this rrly want to learn and get some big 5X value and understand captions mode strategies ! Tonight’s games r golden state vs 76ers and suns vs the mags !
Can someone help me we have less then 1h left lol would love to get some feedback !
Here are my Captain slate notes today for Draftkings:
GS @ Phil Captain Plays: GPP
Note: waiting on word of J. Embiid playing or not. hold on..
D. Russell: The high upside tournament play; For use on main slate GPP with upside as well.
Alec Burks: A solid play as even if it blows out bad he should still be in there.
E. Paschall or T. Harris: Depending on J. Embiid news. not sure I would go with Embiid here. I will fill in more later to determine chalk and exposure setting to recommend.
UTIL: A lot of this is news dependent as well. Don't count out the reserves for Phila. as they should still get plenty of time out there with Embiid not wanting to push too hard as he comes back, especially with great potential for a blowout.
If you really want to shock the world, expect the Warriors to hang with them, using their studs mentioned to go off in this game. Its happened before this year, and no one expects it, giving you quite an edge.
B. Simmons, Al Horford, M. Chriss, D. Green, and D. Lee.
I will provide the best shots in MME soon.
Got ya covered my friend see below
Here are some updates:
CLE - Dante Exum - Starting
• Exum is starting for Garland here tonight and will pick up good minutes. He makes for a nice value play on the slate
TOR - Patrick McCaw - OUT
TOR - Rondae Hollis-Jefferson - OUT
• With RHJ out, this will be a boost to Ibaka here.
• McCaw doesn't move the needle much
PHI - Joel Embiid - IN
• Embiid is in tonight, we are waiting on word about a minutes limit. The matchup is good, but he hasn't played in a while so be careful here.
BOS - Jayson Tatum - OUT
• Tatum is out as expected. This is a boost to Theis and also Gordon Hayward.
MEM - Jae Crowder - OUT
• Kyle Anderson gets a big minutes boost here and makes for a solid GPP play
Go with any captain you want as there should be no chalk tonight! No one is projecting even at 20% its wide open.
Ben Simmons is chalk. max him out at %60 as he could be 80% owned.
Underowned:
O. Spellman - go up to 50% as he is a good play tonight!
Go up to 40% on these guys as well, Severely underowned:
Shake Milton, Draymond, and Alec Burks looking very low owned!
For Pho Dall game:
I’m not getting full optimization for Gpp because my laptop crashed which sucks so I’m just gonna build a few lineups by hand knowing at least able we do that Rubio starting Bridges instead of Saric and Luka is playing.
I also love Ayton and Oubre tonight so they will also be sure in my lineups
