Timely Hitting Posted July 14, 2017 Report Share Posted July 14, 2017 I have not seen ROY odds anywhere, but if Dennis Smith is a long enough shot I may take a piece of that; although I like Fultz a lot, and Ball's usage rate should be through the roof, I think Smith could be an outstanding stat stuffer as a rookie. That said, Carlisle may not give him the minutes so the odds need to be real long. I was looking through some props today at 5dimes, and although the juice is high on this I find the number pretty enticing; enticing enough to fund 5dimes just to play it: M.Fultz avg assists per game over 2½ -400 The Sixers offense runs through the PG position; Bayless averaged 4.3 a game in 23 minutes a night and McConnell 6.6 in 26 minutes. While Fultz is a scoring PG, he's also an excellent distributor of the basketball. Fultz is going to get the primary minutes at PG, and I don't see how he doesn't average the assists. Will update as win totals are released and other futures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timely Hitting Posted July 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2017 That line is an absolute joke... how would he not average 2.6+ a game lolThat's what I thought; line should be -5000. Tempted to make this a ZERO chancer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlisle notoriously doesn't play rookies big minutes - similarly to thibs. I like Smith a lot but Fultz being a bigger dog than Smith is crazy. Like Fultz and Isaac at those odds.

barman Posted July 14, 2017 Report Share Posted July 14, 2017 Timely, I am only dialed into one NBA team what with my longtime listening to The Ticket in Dallas. Fairly confident that Mavs will treat at least the coming season as a No Worries year with regard to being big contenders given their current makeup and the overall Western conference. So Smith not likely to have minutes curtailed in favor of some hoped for advantage that might be gained by restraining his time in favor of Yogi.....or whatever spare they use as fifth guard behind DS, Yogi, Seth and Wes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just would be shocked to see Carlisle play a rookie 32+ minutes but maybe I'm wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FairWarning Posted July 14, 2017 Report Share Posted July 14, 2017 Seems like Simmons shouldn't have rookie status. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barman Posted July 14, 2017 Report Share Posted July 14, 2017 I think DS a solid investment, but think you could get a bit better price in October because would not be surprised to see the Lakers/Lonzo hype machine result in some oversell on him and thus a few bucks more on DS line Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barman Posted July 14, 2017 Report Share Posted July 14, 2017 Seems like Simmons shouldn't have rookie status.I don't know NBA definition, but do know that in MLB a minimum number of PA or IP technically defines a Rookie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMartian Posted July 14, 2017 Report Share Posted July 14, 2017 Seems like Simmons shouldn't have rookie status.Why shouldn't he ? It's his rookie season hasn't played an official game yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FairWarning Posted July 14, 2017 Report Share Posted July 14, 2017 Why shouldn't he ? It's his rookie season hasn't played an official game yet.He's been in 2 summer leagues now (if playing this year) and 2 training camps. Thats a big advantage over the other rookies.

barman Posted July 14, 2017 Report Share Posted July 14, 2017 I did not know for sure myself....so looked it up 130 PA, 50 IP OR 45 days on MLB roster, not including days between Sept 1 and end of reg season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm new to the site but it seems like most people here have a higher intelligence level than to ask a dumb question like that. Question: How can you consider him a rookie?Answer: He hasn't played.

johnnyonthespot Posted July 15, 2017 Report Share Posted July 15, 2017 Martian agreed that it was a stupid question because it was. No one needs to read that kind of crap. It's no one's fault but your own that your stream of consciousness in that situation was dumb enough to offend others. Grow up, try to do better next time and move on - for everyone's sake and stop taking it out on others. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
