Fantasy-less Fantasy BBall Pod

Fantasys mentioned about every other episode. Hosts are definitely not playing much fantasy bball Saying you didnt know who was available in your draft probably isnt a good look. al horford isn’t a “good value” in Rd.8 in 2023. 11/7/2/1/1 is a must roster fantasy line for a 12 team league. Not according to Steve Alexander. Maybe he plays points leagues(the kids table of fantasy).
Since it’s only a weekly pod, most of the season long advice like waiver pickup suggestions are too late to matter. Put it in a different category or call it a general nba pod.

Sound Quality

These guys need a decent microphone. Sound quality is terrible. Sounds like an amateur production.
