And yo, if you've been listening to your boys bees the spitting Statistician, you have more money in your my Bookie dot a g account than you did at the beginning of the World Cup. Viva Belgium, Viva Croatia. We'll get into that in a hot second. I got a crew downstairs with me, down there in the fourth floor in the fantasy pit of misery, Dilley Dilley to my man j P the night ol. I got my best friend forever, Mikey floor Rio down there.

I got you know, Danny Otto, and we are going to give you a recap. If you're down with the stats over beat Cipher, you may know about the World's Tallest Model show. We're gonna get into that in a little while. I also got my man wall Street down there, Maddie Mo pulling double duty. We may holler at him a little bit later on as well. We got a big show for you. Okay, I'm going to as I've been doing here on the Fantasy Freestyle. We're gonna go division by division today. We talk about the a f

C West. I'm gonna give you the diamonds and the rough and I'm gonna give you the full gazes the guys you need to forget about for fantasy football this year. We're also with my man j P the night we're gonna talk about this free agency period here in the NBA. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Lebron James is over there in La La Land with the Lakers, magic working his magic and getting the king over there. But then last night, Boogee Cousins signs basically for the mid level expect exception over with the Golden

State war Years. And that is our poll question on the show tonight. What is your reaction to Boogie Cousins signing with the Golden State Warriors. My options for you are I love Golden State, answering Lebron or is it does it ruin the NBA for you? Or is it on some I'm like, yo, championships are one in the summertime. Let's see what happens when they are on the court. We already got over a hundred votes there. If you want to join the show, holler at me at spitting Speeds.

You could also you could holler at me Dial eight for four, eight, four, three, six, eight, seven nine if you want to chat it up about fantasy football, free agency and the like. And then as always as you know we do, uh you know, we put the fun and functional sports content here on the Fantasy Freestyle. We got rapping athletes to break down. But I'm gonna bring back some of the guys that were hooking me up

last football season. My man JP the night Our is going to experience the trap game my estros for the first time in this episode. And I'm also gonna tell you listen, since we last spoke, we have hit July one, and July one is the beginning of a new fiscal year. If you're incorporations or you know kind of stuff like that, you understand. And I'm gonna tell you who loves the beginning of the fiscal year July first, more than anybody else and will love it until oh, I would say

about the year two thousand and thirty five. We'll talk about that a little bit later on, but I want to get you caught up on the news and notes here in the NFL before we dive into the a f C West. There's two things that I want to ask you guys, and talk to you guys about one Robert Turban of the Indianapolis Colts. He got popped. He's gonna serve at four game suspension for the Pets. You know,

he's enhancing his performance synthetically, shall we say so? He's gonna miss the first four games of the Indianapolis Colts season. And I gotta tell you something. I think there's some opportunity here for a couple of guys. A lot of people are gonna talk about Marlon Mack. I don't think so, Okay, I believe this is an opportunity for two young kids that are back on the bottom of their depth chart. One is not he hinds. This is a rookie. He's more of a prototypical like PPR kind of back, third

down back guy who's a dangerous guy in space. Think about you know, Turik Cohen, Elijah McGuire, these kind of guys. I think he's gonna get a little bit more of an opportunity. But remember the name Jordan's Wilkins. Okay, this is kind of as my man Jake Sealey, who I work with here in the mornings on Rhodo Experts in the morning, he says, he's actually the best overall back and I think he may have an opportunity. This could be an opportunity for Jordan Wilkins. Will keep an eye

out in that Indianapolis running back room. The last thing I'll say is, don't forget Marco Murray is also still without a job, and I think he's gonna wind up signing somewhere. Maybe it's an injury or maybe a four game pe d Sus mentioned, So keep an eye out on that. Remember the name Jordan Wilkins and Nahem Hines. I also gotta ask listen, since we last talked this Jamis Winston thing has gone down, right. You know about the issue with the uber driver back in two thousand

I believe sixteen, maybe two thousand fifteen. But he gets three games, and here's my beef with this, all, okay, Jameis Winston three games for in essence sexual misconduct groping an uber driver, Zeke Elliott for what doing similar things that like a Marty gar operade with like his friend or a woman. Six games, three six. I don't know about the rhyme of reason. Let me add to this,

Tom Brady for you know, deflating football's four games. Okay, so deflating footballs is worse than molesting an uber driver, but not as bad as ripping the top off on a young lady in a Marty gar operade. Okay, got it? Um, Former Giants kicker Josh Brown for repeatedly abusing his wife on NFL grounds at the Pro Bowl in fact one game. So that's less than grouping an uber driver or deflating football's or exposing a woman at a Marty reparade. Okay, I think I got it. But then what about like

Seantrel Henderson, My man Mike Florio knows him. He's an offensive lineman for the Bill's mafia down there. What about Martevis Bryant and marijuana? Sixteen games? Oh? I see, So smoking marijuana is worse than repeatedly abusing your wife, Worse than uh, grabbing an uber driver apparently, you know, our president forty five thinks that's all good if you're famous. Um, worse than deflating football's integrity of the game, all that stuff,

worse than exposing a female at Marty operade. Marijuana worse than all of these things, and you know, more than four three times worse apparently, But I digress the nfl US to find some consistency in their personal conduct policy, some consistency in their performance enhancing drug policy before we

hit the next year. But if you're talking about this here on the status over beat cipher in the chat room, on YouTube, on Twitter, on twitch, holler at MEO if you, for some reason think that I'm bugging that there is in fact consistency in this policy, holler at me. If any of y'all down there in a fantasy pit of misery, dilly dilly, if you think that I'm bugging, holler at me. Let me know. All right, But as we move along, we're gonna talk here about the a f C West.

I think the a f C West is a very interesting division. I'm gonna give you my diamonds, my fool gazes. And also, if you're going over to my bookie dot a g right now, depositive little something, okay, and then enter the promo code f n T s Y, you will get a fifty deposit bonus on your original investment. Okay, we're trying to hook you up. You can tell them that speeds of spitting statisticians sent you. We're gonna also look at the over unders for some of these teams

and where I would lay a cup the shekels. I'm trying to win my leagues and win that cash. Let's start with the Denver Broncos. Okay, I'm gonna tell you right now. I got a diamond. I don't even know if he's a diamond in the rough, but I'm telling you right now. And this is a big shout out to my man Pete in Staten Island. Last year, Pete and Staten Island, he was part of my status over beat Cipher. He was calling an all year and he

was like, listen, I'm on DeVante Booker. I'm stashing Devontae Booker. They don't want c. J. Anderson. It's gonna be Devontae Booker's job. And I was like, you know what, I think you might be right. I think that's a decent stadge. I'm gonna tell you right now, Pete from shout Lynn. Not this year, brother man, It's all about Royce Freeman. I'm gonna tell you something right now. Royce Freeman is one of my big time diamonds and the rough here for the a f C West and among the rookie

running backs. If you want to know the truth. I think talent wins out. I think he will eventually leap frog DeVante Booker. I think Royce Freeman is the running back to own for the Denver Broncos, especially if you're in a standard league, Okay, because he's not gonna offer much in the passing game. I think Devon Tay Booker is gonna wind up being that PPR kind of back

for the Denver Broncos. But if you're in a standard league, I am not scared to say I think Royce Freeman can be a back end RB two in his rookie year in standard re draft leagues. Okay, you need to know about this kid, this rookie out of Oregon. They went out and drafted this kid because I don't think the organization believes in DeVante Booker. They tried as much as possible to give him that job last year and it didn't go down. Royce Freeman, Diamond and the rope

as it comes to the Denver Broncos. On the flip side, when I talk about the fugases, the guys you need to forget about for the Denver Broncos, I actually have a couple. The first one is case Keenum. Listen, case keenom I think outperformed himself and expectations last year. He is now also not with Shermer anymore. Remember they were reports in the off season, like when he was gonna go to when Sherman was gonna go to the Giants and elsewhere. They were like, oh, he's gonna take case

Keenum with him wherever he goes. I believe that that is because case Keenum was a product of that system. Case Keenum was just a guy for years and then all of a sudden, he's gonna be that dude that apparently is gonna be your fantasy quarterback. No, no, no, even in two quarterback leagues. I like a bunch of other people. You can get Matt Ryan, Ben Roethlisberger, you know, Jared Goff, Derek Carr. I would rather all these guys than case Keenum, And in two QB leagues you can

get these people. I would even rather a guy like Tyrod Taylor for early in the season. I would rather a spec play on a guy like Lamar Jackson instead of putting in your lot with case Keenum. So I think he could be a little bit of a fool waysy someone you need to forget about It's interesting with their wide receiver position. Okay, you know about DT, you know about Mannie Sanders. There are two wide receivers if you're in dynasty leagues, I think warrant a look here

for the Denver Broncos. The first is Courtland Sutton. He was one of the wide receivers who my man, Emery Hunt, who knows the college scouting game, like whoa um says was you know skill Lie is one of the best wide receivers in this draft and he goes to Denver. Remember never has been looking for that third wide receiver option for a long time. Guys like Cody Latimer and the like getting an opportunity in there. So I like Sutton, but don't sleep on Dave Shawn Hamilton's out of Penn

State either. Okay, both DT and Manny Sanders. I think around like the last year or their deal, there is the potential that it is you know, Sutton and Hamilton's that are the starting wide receivers next year for the Denver Broncos. Maybe the Broncos bring back one of these guys d T. R. Sanders and only one of them. But if you're in the Dynasty League. Keep an eye for sure on Courtland's Sun and Sutton and Dave Shawn Hamilton's.

When I look at their schedule, the Denver Broncos, they open up as always, they always wind up with like two straight home games, and this year they get that as well. They stayed on home the home opener against the Seattle Seahawks. Remember Seattle on the road a different team than at home. Seattle will be working through a new defense, working through a new in my opinion, starting running back. So I think Denver could get off to

a hot start home against Seattle, home against Oakland. But there's a lot of coin flip games to me with the Denver Broncos. Okay, the over under on their season win total is seven. I actually think that's a good line. I am going to pass on the Denver Broncos. They are not a team at this line that I am going to lay money on because I see them pretty much as a seven and nine team. Let's keep it moving with the Kansas City Chiefs. That is the next

team in the division that I want to talk about. Listen, people love Patty, That's Mahomes and I am among them. You are seeing the quarterback comparisons to Brett Farve. This kid is supposedly going to be a gun slinger, and they supported him with Tyree Hill, and they went out and got Sammy Watkins we know, and stretch the defense, be that deep threat. I think that helps them stretch the defense. I think that helps him with Travis Kelsey running around in the middle of the field. I like

Patty Mahomes. And here's the other piece on Patty Mahomes that people may not know just yet. I think he's going to contribute in the running game a little bit more than people think. My projections are Patty Mahomes can get three hundred, three hundred fifty rushing yards and when you're dealing with quarterbacks another three four hundred rushing yards. You're in the Alex Smith Russell Wilson territory. You're not

quite out the Cam Newton territory yet. But these are quarterbacks who literally can add a couple of points to your bottom line with their running and I like Patty that's my homes to be one of them as well. When you look at the fool gazzies, I'm gonna go with Tyreek Hill. I've seen Tyreek Hill being as high as wide receiver ten eleven, twelve, thirteen. I've seen him as a back end wide receiver one, a high end wide receiver two, and I don't think that is the case. Okay.

I think they got Sammy Watkins to be another deep threat. I think there's a new quarterback in town. And I just think that you basically got the best Tyreek Kill you're going to get last year. And so if you are expecting him to be your back end wide out one or you're a great wide out two, that you're getting a week week advantage. I wouldn't be so sure at that level. I would much rather have a guy like Stefon Diggs. I would much rather have a guy

like t Y Hilton. I would much rather have a guy like Larry Fitzgerald and Tyree Killers going at the same level as these guys. Give me the alternative to Tyree Hill. I think he's gonna be a little bit something of a full gazey. As you look at the Kansas City Chiefs scheduled, it is not easy. Okay. They got a tough start. Four of their first six games are on the road. Check this out. They are on the road for the Chargers on the road, for the Steelers on the road at New England, and on the

road for Denver. That is tough. Okay, the a f C West, they also get the NFC West as the division they play against, and they drew the short straw there as well for the Chiefs. Okay, So when you play the entire NFC West, you're gonna play two games on the road, two games at home. It gets Seattle on the road. That sucks. They get the Rams on the road, that sucks. You would have want to have had at least a home game against one of those

two teams. So I think this first stretch where they go on the road to the Chargers, the Steelers, the Broncos, and the Pats, that is tough to me. And having to go to Seattle and go to Los Angeles to take on the Rams, that is also tough to me. I can see the Chiefs actually like progressing because you know they're setting up Patting Mahomes to be that next guy. And I think long term it could be good for them, but I think short term they could take a small

step back. The over under on this team is eight and a half. I pass on the Kansas City Chiefs. When we come back here on the Fantasy Freestyle, two teams down in the a f C West to other teams to preview. I'm gonna tell you right now, one of them definitive under. I am definitely going over to my bookie Dot A G. And I'm putting some shekels on the under on one team, and I'm putting some shekels on the over on the other team. We got the Raiders and the Chargers left in the a f

C West. I'll tell you who I like and who I think is fo Gazzy who being forward? And then, like I said, we got a lot of other stuff to do. We're gonna talk with the Night Owl about the NBA free agency. I'm gonna give you my World Cup quarterfinal preview, and we gotta give you my recap of the World Tallest Model.

But Jesus Christie could be so much better. I'm the type to hit the lotto than complain about the weather forever.

I'm not. I'm used, unimpressed, overstressed. Yes, there it is a little chronicle of bringing you back here on the Fantasy Freestyle, right here on the world famous, an award winning fantasy sports radio Network. I'm your boy, Dame Martinez. You already know what it is. We're having fun here. We're breaking down the a f C West a little bit. I told you my take on the Broncos. I love Royce Freeman. I am going to have shares of Royce Freeman on my squads left and right. And then we

talked about the Kansas City Chiefs with Patty. That's my homes but I'd be a little bit leery about the Chiefs overall. I am not touching their season win total at eight and a half. Also with the season win total of eight and a half is the Oakland Raiders in their last season in the Bay. I'm telling you right now, if I was you, I would run. I would not walk. I would run to my bookie dot Ag, and I would lay the under on the Oakland Raiders. I think this team is gazy. You need to fugu

out about the Raiders this year. Yeah beast mode, you know for his hometown. Yeah, Gruden comes back, bring some excitement, good old Chucky. You'll make you want to run through a wall. But really, where is this team good? Outside of say the offensive line. Derek Carr has taken a step back since that injury. You know I'm seeing him go right now? Is like quarterbacks seventeen in some drafts. I don't know that he's right, And to be quite honest, I don't know that John Gruden is the guy to

cultivate him. Spider too, why banana and whatnot? Right at running back? Okay, sure, Marshawn Lynch, I can see him being a back end r B two, especially he's gonna be my diamond in the rough for this team. Okay, I think beast mode can actually be some value. I think he is a back end r B two. And here's why. As we move along to where more and more teams are in time shares and committees, it's going to be the guy who you can more depend on

for touchdowns that is going to get you points. So in Detroit, I like LGBT rights, like Garrett Blunt, and in Oakland the same theory. I like Marshawn Lynch. I think he could be a back end r B two for your team. Will he do a lot in the passing game? Not necessarily, but I can easily see him with another season of nine nine hundred fifty yards and eight or nine touchdowns, and that in itself gets you to r B two territory. When we talk to the fool gazes, Jordy Nelson is a fool gaze for me.

You need to forget about Jordy Nelson. This is not two thousand fourteen where he was that dude. This is not two thousand fifteen where he had great chemistry with Aaron Rodgers. Last year you saw that Jordy Nelson was not the same guy. And to be quite honest, a lot of Jordy Nelson's production, in my opinion, last year is because straight the chemistry he had with Aaron Rodgers back shoulder throws, red zone kind of targets where they have a feel. That is not the case with a

new quarterback. Jordy Nelson, in my opinion, is there to teach professionalism to Martavis Bryant and a Marii Cooper who has got something going on. In my opinion between the ears with his drops, I always thought Crabtree was a better fantasy receiver than a Marii Cooper. Will talk about that a little bit later on in the show as

I break out the remix of the Trap Game. My estros forgot amr A. But I do think that Jordy Nelson is who Gazzy because if anything, they are going to want Cooper and uh Martavis Bryant to be their dudes in Oakland. I like Lynch, I think he has some value for you because a lot of people think that he's done. But I think the touchdowns will still play in fantasy. But I would take right now, go on over and grab the under on the Oakland Raiders.

And at least one team left in this division, and it's the Los Angeles Charges And I gotta tell you something. And I know the Unicorn is not gonna like hearing this, but last year, literally at this point last year, when I was doing my division by division previews and I was doing the NFC East, I was like, you know what, I kind of like the Philadelphia Eagles. You can ask my man JP down there, my best friend forever, my man Chris Bovona, the manimal I they could play the tape.

Even I was like, I like the Eagles. I think they will be in the NFC Championship Game or beyond. And I said why because I liked their talent at every single position. There is talent on this roster. And I also said last year that I thought the Eagles were the only team in the NFC East that was not regressing. I can say a lot of the same things about the Los Angeles Chargers this year. I think they have legit talent at every position. Philip Rivers, Yeah,

that'll work. Melvin Gordon year, that'll work. Keenan Allen and the Williams is trispant, Yeah that'll work. Yes, I know they lost Hunter Henry, but I also believe this is going to be a top five defense. I don't think there is a pair of edge rushers that will get more pressure in the a f C than Joey Bosa and Melvin Ingram. Yes. That includes in Denver with Von Miller and Bradley Chubb. Yes, that includes in Houston with j. J. Watt,

Whitney Merciless and Jadeveon Clowney. I think the Chargers can get the most pressure on the quarterback in the a f C. I also think the Chargers have the best set of corner backs in the a f C. You're talking about Casey Hayward, who was literally, as per Pro Football Focus last year, rated the top cornerback in the NFL. Okay, don't forget about guys like Desmond King and their other rookie you played well, And don't forget about Jason Varette, who has been a Pro Bowler and is oft injured

but should be healthy this year. I love then also what they did in the draft with the number seventeen overall pick, getting Darwin James. This guy is a Swiss army knife that I believe can cover Rob Gronkowski in the playoffs and make it work for the Los Angeles Charges. What I'll also say is this, And you saw this when the Fantasy Sports Network they did their mock draft yesterday, and when you got a bunch of experts in the room,

all loo gonna wait on quarterback. You're getting legit quarterbacks in round seven, eight, nine, and ten. And I'm gonna tell you something. Add Philip Rivers to the list of guys that are the reason why I will be waiting on quarterback. I'm telling you, guys, and if I've said it once, I've said it a thousand times. Here with the stats overbeat Cipher. If I'm in a twelve team league, I will be the eleventh or twelfth guy to draft

a quarterback. You're telling me I can wait and I could have my choice of Philip Rivers, Matthew Stafford, uh, Patty Mahomes, you know, and all these guys whichever one falls to meet Carson Wentz even this is another Rivers is another example of why I will wait on quarterbacks. So I believe Philip Rivers is a diamond the rough. I'm gonna tell you who the other diamond and the rough is for me on the Los Angeles Chargers, and it's Mike Williams, second year wide receiver at a Clemson.

This guy is a boss. This guy was a first round draft pick of the Chargers at a Clemson. It was him and to Shaun Watson who almost like single handedly beat Alabama in the championship game a couple of years back. Yes, he had the back injury and stuff, but I think Williams stands to benefit the most from the Hunter Henry injury. Williams. Mike Williams, and excuse me when I say Williams with the Chargers right now, I'm talking about Mike Williams. Tyrrell Williams is also out there.

But I like Mike Williams, and I like Mike Williams to be the guy that takes some of those red zone targets. I like Mike Williams to be the guy that takes some of those third down move the chains kind of looks from Philip Rivers. I think he's the guy that can get you six touchdowns. And I think Mike Williams is going at value. He is a diamond and the rough. For the Los Angeles I almost said San Diego, but for the Los Angeles Chargers go, Chargers Go. I told you how much I love their defense. I

think they are top three defense for fantasy. And I will say this also if you follow the Chargers, and I know some people out there do see you. Um for years, the Chargers have been snake bit, ridiculous collapses at the end of games, ridiculous starts to the season, and then they pick it up at the end, missing field goals left and right, young wing cool or whoever it is, right, if they put some field goals through the uprights and get off to a hot start, I

can see this team. I actually believe the Chargers are the class of the a f C West. I take the over on the Chargers there over under is nine. I think this is a double digit win franchise right now this year and when it comes to the a f C. I'm telling you right now, I am trying to beat Tom Brady and I'm looking for veteran quarterbacks on their last ride to be the guys to do it. There's one in Pittsburgh, and there is one with the Charges Philip Rivers and gonna be scared going into Gillette

in mid January. I love me some Los Angeles Chargers this year provided health obviously, and they've been snake bitten in that way as well. But give me the Chargers as the class of the a f C West. All right, let's keep it moving. I want to do right now. I want to bring in my man JP, the night Owl. He's down there in the fantasy pit of misery. Delay. Delay to my boy JP. I want to talk a little bit of NBA with him. Okay, we talked about, you know, free agency, getting into it with the draft

and stuff like that. We talked about that with JP. And I want to remind you guys right now, we gotta pull question up. What is your reaction to Boogie Cousins signing with the Warriors. Is the NBA going too far with their super teams? What is the salary cap for if not to prevent this exact thing? So right now of you says it ruins the NBA for you.

I don't disagree. They say they love Golden State. Answering the move of Lebron to Los Angeles and say, hey, let's just wait and see, let's see what happens on the court. Right the off season is not over. There could be some other moves made a team like Los Angeles by a team like Houston or teams in the East. And also, listen, Boogie Cousins is coming back from an achilles injury, okay, and that is not easy, especially in the n b A. I don't think there's many examples

in the NBA of someone coming back effectively. Maybe Wesley Matthews is one that I can think of. Maybe my man JP or my best friend forever Mike Florio can tell me a little bit otherwise. But now, at this point, we bring in my guy, j P the Night Owl. Okay, he's my basketball, my new basketball. Corresponding JP, fifty one percent of the poll right now, we got over a hundred votes are saying that yes, this Boogie Cousins signing Ruins the NBA for them. Are you part of that? JP?

I am, But I do think I differ a lot from that. And tell me more so, where I come from. Is I'm not mad at anyone or I'm not mad at the league. I'm not mad at the Warriors. I'm not even mad at Boogie Cousins. It's the right decision. It just kind of sucks as a fan to see that it's happening. That's where I take it from. So why does it suck? Though? Right You're you're telling me it sucks because of kind of like the competitive balance of it. All Right, you have we have an essence.

We have rendered the regular season obsolete, you know what I mean? And that you know, with the with the option on the pole ruins the NBA. For me, maybe that like that ruins You know, what is it like six to seven months of viewing if you're a big NBA fan and listen in October of last year, I was like, yo, wake me up when it's the Calves in the Warriors in the finals. You know what I mean? And so like, now you're rendering the NBA regular season

pretty much obsolete. You're rending early playoffs Obsoletely, I'm gonna tell you right now, if all things are equal and stay the same, wake me up around Memorial Day next year when it is the Golden State Warriors and the Boston Celtics in the NBA Finals. In my opinion. Yeah, Philly's got a chance if Marquelle Folts can you know, find his shot. But don't sleep on the Boston Celtics. And you know, Kauai Leonard makes the will be on the move. But I agree with you you're saying it

kind of does. Maybe it doesn't ruin it for you, but JP competitive balance is all out of whack, right, Yeah. I mean there wasn't much to say about it last year, but this is just kind of like another layer to it where it's like there's no team that's even close competitively to this team. So I'm sleeping through the NBA Finals. And that's the thing JP, like even the Rockets they lose Trevor Areza, you know that's an issue. Could Kauai

make a big difference? Yes? Could there be some other move that's a big move that we don't know about that's gonna happened via trade, Anthony Davis on the move, you know, something like that, possible, Kyrie Irving on the move possible. But as it stands right now, pencil Meian for Golden State Boston as a NBA Finals And here's the other thing. Here's the here's that kind of the biggest stat that I saw that speaks to this, JP. Check this out, and I'd love to hear your reaction

of this. The presume starting five of the Golden State Warriors. Right, so we're now talking about Steph Curry, Clay Thompson, Kevin Durant, Draymond Green, and Boogie Cousins as the five, the five of them combined, JP, check this out. The five of them combined in their careers have a combined twenty seven All Star Game appearances, all right, JP? Seven combined among those five. That's a lot, right, But check this out, JP. The entire Southwest Division of the NBA and the entire

Central Division of the NBA. Ten NBA teams combined have a combined twenty two All Star appearances among them. JP. That's ridiculous. That's your competitive imbalance right there. Yeah, and make it all probably go combined their teams and still lose to the Warrior, That's what I'm saying. Should. I saw so much stuff on Twitter. You know, my my two favorite ones JP were one I heard that on NBA two K, You're not even allowed to sign to

Marcus Cousins to the mid level extepen they like blocked it. Literally, if you try and do that on the video game, they will not let it happen, saying that it's unfair. The other thing that I thought was interesting, and I will pose that as a question. Maybe I should put this on as a poll question next week. UM. I saw someone on Twitter say that, you know, the United States should, in essence, just send the Golden State Warriors to represent American Olympics. What do you think about that? JP?

They'd probably win that too, because they'd have their team chemistry and stuff like that. Right, Yeah, they'd be better than the Olympic team. They have the chemistry and they've got five Olympians. You know, That's what I'm saying. And you're you know, you're a millennial, JP, you're a video game player. You're putting me onto that sixth Night or whatever it is that the kids are playing these days, that seven night game, that three night game, whatever it is. Um, so,

what do you think about this? You can't even sign Boogie Cousins in MBA two K for the salary that he actually signed with the game. Is like, no, no, no, that's a cheat code. That's not fair. What do you think I play a lot of two. K Okay, I'll tell you they won't even let you come close to this team. That's what I'm saying, right, It's absolutely ridiculous. All right, So JP, I gotta ask you. You know.

The other thing I think is interesting and people may may or may not realize this, It was GM Lebron that cleared the way for the Lakers to sign him. If you guys remember I think it was what January or whatever by the trading deadline this year, Remember, the Calves and the Lakers made a trade, right, the Calves getting you know, Clarkson and Hood and some other guys

Isaiah Thomas went out there. It was that trade that cleared the books and created enough space for the Lakers this summer to sign not one but two Max guys, and then they go on and spend that money on Lebron. Hey, JP, to me, this is GM Lebron just really puppeteering the entire NBA, creating the conditions for him to then sign in l A. Then they get called well, Pope also a client of the same you know, management company and things like that. This is Lebron just stacking the deck, right, Yeah,

he gets he gets Ray gen Rondo as well. So now there's not one, but two point guards in the for the Lakers who can't shoot a lick. Along with triple b NZ old ball JP, the next domino to fall as before we go to break has to be Kauai Leonard. Right, So what do you think, what do you think happens there? And what do you think, if any are the big moves that can also contribute to a shift in competitive balance? Is Kauai? Is that the

only other piece? It maybe a Kyrie Irving trade? What do you anticipate or expect before the next time we have fantasy freestyle here? I'd say there's two players on the planet that can effectively guard Kevin Durant. One is Kawuhi Leonard. Yeah, one Kauai and one Lebron. You put them on the same team, that's a problem. I don't

care what the other team looks like. So that's the only thing that would even like wake me up absolutely, And you know, Kauai Leonard to Los Angeles Native and it looks like they are trying to make that happen. But listen, if I'm Greg Popovitch and the Spurs, why in the hell am I trading Kawuahi Leonard to my competitor to make a team better than me in the West. I'm telling you right now, if I'm Popovich, the conversation start with Brandon Ingram and my boy and Kyle Cool Kosma.

You can keep Alonzo though, you can keep Alonzo though, I'll take Ingram and I'll take uh, you know, I'll take Kuzma. These are guys that play the position in essence that Kauai would be vacating for San Antonio, so Yo. Let me know right now on Twitter at spitting speeds what you think, if you think it ruins the NBA for you, or if you like the kind of arms race that's happening in the Eastern Conference, I will tell you the smart money is on Boston and Philly because

they're gonna have a much easier path there. When we come back here on the Fantasy Freestyle, I'm gonna give you my World Cup update if your stats over beat Cipher Fan, you know I have been hot as liquid hot magna, so hot that we sweat steam. I'm gonna give you my quarterfinal preview. And then we chatted up real quick with my man Danny Otto about the tallest model show in the world. I tell you who likes the beginning of a new fiscal year more than anybody else?

And we break down my trap game. My estro is talking about a Mari Cooper in the a f C. West. All that and more, which your boy, Dame Martinez speeds the spitting statistician, stable genius and vocal minority right here on the Fantasy Freestyle on the award winning Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Bow Wow, Wow, you b yo, you p a come on right back. Have you ever wanted to have a fantasy expert in the palm of your hand, profederal yet in the pocket of your kapis. We'll check

No, we don't care. We'd a beef boy. Scouts.

Check it we're prepared. You know what it is right here on the fantasy freet now, Mr boy Dame Martinezpe's spitting statistician. Two more real quick point on that Boogie Cousins thing. I gotta tell you something, and big shout out to my guys down there in the fantasy pit of misery. You know, they hit me up on the g chat. You know, that's how we communicate with each other live on the radio. If I was the fantasy executive right now, be like no machine machine. But uh,

down there in Dilley, Dilley, they told me. Oh. The Lakers also said not to Boogie at five million a year. And that's another good point. Okay, Boogie Cousins, I hear in reports that he did not get a single offer in free agency, maybe because of the Achilles, maybe because he's a mercurial talent, but I digress. The thing is, listen, if he didn't get on any other offers, how are you gonna hate the Golden State Worries for being like, hey,

we'll give you a midlevel exception, you know. And I think that if you're also if you're a Boogie Cousins and you're coming back from an Achilles injury. You know, I think this is a good look because the market wasn't there for you. You did not get a single offer, So mine as well get a little one year prove it deal. And if you're gonna go do that and you're gonna have one year to prove it, mine as well go to a situation where the conditions for six sess to make you look good are gonna be there.

You know, he's gonna pull down twelve boards game with that team. You know, Draymond is the only one who really rebounds there, right, so he's gonna have an opportunity. And uh, if I got my man, uh whoever I got down there, check this out. One of my boys just texted me something crazy, and at first I looked at it. I did a double take. But I want to share it right now with the stats over beat cipher. I think it's pretty funny. Uh, I heard it. I got a meme right now. It said breaking news, JR.

Smith has agreed in principle with the Los Angeles Lakers, and then right after that it said what the Los Angeles Lakers did not agree in principle with j R. Smith? And that's probably what Lebron is feeling these days. He is happy to be gone. Big shout out to my man Kenneth Cashman and Rhodo where they were doing that Jr. Smith Lebron James shirt with the new logo. Gotta love that as well. All right, let's keep it moving here

as we put the fun in functional sports radio. What I gotta do is I gotta tell you about this World Cup. Listen if you follow speeds and spitting statistician stats over beats Cipher. If you see me on my Patreon, I'm out there giving you World Cup locks right now. I'm something like eleven and two on the World Cup right now. I'm going over here. Right now, I'm checking my balance on my bookie dot a G. I swear to you. I logged in today and I was like, oh,

where's this extra money coming from? No doubt you know where it came from. It came from my bet to have my parlay to have Croatia and Belgium qualify for the quarterfinals. I have been telling you four weeks Croatia and Belgium are the non like favorites that you need to ride. Right now, there are eight teams left and my guys. Croatia and Belgium are still two of them. Croatia, I mean, Belgium is gonna have a tough one though. So let's look at their the quarterfinal matchups. There are

four of them. I'm on over here right now on my bookie dot a g where you can enter the promo code f N T S Y and get a fifty deposit bonus on your deposit. You gotta like that, Okay, it starts, uh, the quarterfinals, the next round start on Friday, July six. We got two games. First game up France really against Uruguay, all right, Listen, Uruguay is a decent squad, okay, Uh Suarez Cavani. I like some of what Uruguay is doing.

Uruguay is also a very very strong defensive team. I think they've let up something like one goal in this entire World Cup, and that was in the last round in their match up against Russia. No, against Portugal. I do believe in Uruguay is a very very solid defensive squad. But France is no joke, all right, I gotta take France. Listen, if you saw the round the sixteen, that knockout phase, Yo, Mbope is just going over the top. He's just quicker than everybody. He's nasty. I like France to get back

between the aging center backs of Uruguay. I like France. They are a minus one oh four favorite. That's pretty much even money. Okay, you got Uruguay at plus three fifty, the draw at plus two seventeen, and the draw is interesting. You can still have a draw even in these not out rounds when they go to the penalty kicks. And that's something I didn't realize at first. Okay, So these lines are about in ninety minutes, okay, and that's very important. So like if you see these extra time games like

you see Columbia England today extra time. You saw a lot of extra time games that go to penalty kicks, you lose if you bet one of these guys. This isn't assuming in ninety minutes. But I would go ahead and take France over your aguide to advance to the semifinals from the early Friday game, second game, and boy, this is the one. This is the one that's really going to decide a lot of stuff for me, for me personally, And if you follow, that's over beat Stifer.

If you've been following me and you've got more money in your my booky dat a g account, and this one is gonna be a big one for you. We got Belgium, Mos Squad, Lukaku, the Brewing Right, Um Hazard and others, Flani you know and others company. So they got Brazil. They got Brazil in this round. And listen, Brazil is a deserving favorite. But I gotta tell you something. I'm riding with my boys on Belgium. I think Brazil, Yeah, they've looked I but they haven't looked like these world

beaters overall favorites, like they're build up to be. Belgium has just as many world class players. Belgium has studs up front. And if you saw the game against Japan, they were down to nothing, had a furious comeback during that game. Three two. I think Belgium can score with anybody. I would like two things. I like Belgium in this game. I understand if you don't. But in this game. Over under for this game is two and a half. I'm taking the over. There will be three goals scored in

this game. Belgium can score and Brazil can score as well. This I I see as a two one game. Okay, so I like the over in this game. You know, I like Belgium, but I've got already, I've got staking them already, you know, to uh advance. So I'm not gonna lay this. I'm not gonna hedge on this. I like the r in that game. Then when we go to Saturday, you got another one of my teams, Crochha. They're up against Russia. I don't know if there's collusion going on or not. That's the only thing that causes

me concerned. I like that Croatia has to face Russia instead of Spain. But listen, they're in Russia. You know, Putin's gonna be watching. You know, He's got his trolls, you know, and his bots farming, you know, like all the stray dogs are gonna be like coordinating something. So my, my, my crew of Croatia with a racketicic and you know some of the other guys, they are up against it. They are, however, the favorites, and I hope and I

love Croatia to move on. In the last quarter final, you're gonna have England, who beat Columbia today in penalty kicks up against Sweden. I think, you know, England's got some mojo right now. I think they are the better side lookout for Harry Kane. I like England, so right now my semifinals would be England verse Croatia and Belgium

and France. I got France, Belgium, Croatia and England as my final four, and then I'm telling you you right now you may still be able to get there's a prop bet right now when my bookie dot A g the continent of the winner, Europe and South America are pretty much the big choices. You know, you get North America, Asia. They were options as well, but I like France, Belgium, Croatia and England to be the final four, all representing Europe. Go ahead, lay money heavily on the favorite that is Europe.

Your only options for the rest of the world of Brazil and uh Uruguay. Right so, you know, take this Europe bet and then maybe lay some shekels on Brazil if you want to hedge. That's what I'm telling you right now. France, Belgium, Croatia and England. Unfortunately for some I think we'll make it all right. Let's bring him my man Danny Otto here. If you are a fan

of the Fantasy Freestyle. And if you have been watching in the last few episodes, you remember when a couple of weeks ago, we're just celebrating the World Cup and the international flavor of the Fantasy Freestyle. We had Katia and Victoria, the world's tallest models on the show. Katia had the literally the Guinness Booger World records for the longest legs in the world. So Danny and I we were able and we went to the World's Tallest Model

Show last weekend. It was a glorious time at stage forty eight and Dany Otto we bring him now in on the Fantasy Freestyle. As my model corresponded, Danny, how you doing, brother man, I'm doing pretty good at you. I'm doing all right. So let's give people our top takeaways here from the Model Show. And you're laughing. I'm laughing because overall I gotta say this, you know, Shout out to the ladies, Shout out to the girls they did their things, Shout out to the designers. But Danny

was a little weird. It was definitely a little It was a little weird Danny. Right, Here's the thing I've never had experience with that, So I don't know if the regular version is is weird also like I don't know, I have nothing to I think this is a little weirder. Oh yeah, because here's here's the thing. And big shout out to our homegirl Anastagio, who was our hook up, former bartender over here a Rock and Riley's Studio thirty four. She was like worried about She was trying that that's

why the girls want the show you're promoting. They were trying to sell tickets, right, And it looked, Danny, and you will, you will, you will acknowledge this. It looked when we would go in at the show when the show was going on, it looked like the venue was in full okay, and I will say that. And so I was like, oh, snap, maybe they're not making money off this. Maybe our promotion wasn't good. But then I talked to Anastagia afterwards and she said, oh, no, no, no,

we sold out. And in fact, Danny, she said that some of the guys who went there spent fifteen hundred dollars for their seat to the show and to be able to you know, like you know, go to the after party with the models afterwards, right, and we were talking to some of those dudes, and Nah, it was a little strange, Danny. When when I said a few seconds or minutes ago that it was weird, I meant they were weird. That's right, that was That's what I'm saying.

Shout out to the girls. They did their thing, They looked beautiful, the clothes were awesome, but it was just a little bit of a weird vibe. I think at one point we literally referenced the movie Get Out, saying like, this seems a little weird. I don't know what these like older gentlemen are really here for what they're expecting. So I will say that and then also listen, shout out to Katia, right, who was here, longest legs in

the world. But I'm gonna tell you something, if you're six nine and you're also wearing like six or seven in chiels, do not try to walk down some stairs. I watched, you know, like I never really watched the Miss America pageant or model shows like from beginning to end. But if I did, the thing I'd be looking for is to see someone fall. And oh my god, did

Katia almost fall? Like I'm talking guys, listen stats of Beatside from talking first model out, first song, first outfit, you know, boom, she almost tumbles down the stairs, Danny, what were you thinking when that was going down? I the worst part is that we knew her. Like if it was one of the models that I didn't know, I'd be like ha ha ha. But I felt bad because it was Katia right, But I mean she grabbed

her like she got herself. She tripped like on one or two steps, then jumped down like three or four steps and landed in high heels. That was impressive, impressive, And after that they had like this other six six dude like helping them walk downstairs. It was a lot of fun. Danny. What was your biggest takeaway from the event? Uh? That uh? I guess some guys are willing to pay for some guy. But with the stats over Beats, Cipher

and my patreons can just see live and direct. Here we had Contio, we had Victoria's Lovely, some other lovely ladies. Their model show is going to keep it moving. I believe they're going to l a. So if you're part of the stats over Beat Cipher, Jilly Dilley, I see you. If you want to get down my boys out there with the drinkings. Uh, if you want to get down hollow boy at spitting speeds. Danny, what else you got from the show. I mean it was a fun experience

overall though, right, Oh yeah, no, it was great. It kind of makes me feel better that we got asked to go to the front row, knowing that some people like obviously that we're in the front row to start where we're like in between designers, Like the m C was like interviewing people, yeah, all right, and they were asking like and a lot of it was friends and family, you know, like networks of people right, like showing love,

showing support. But it was like this one kind of shady dude that was in the front row and they asked him like, oh, who do you know? And he was like, no, I paid my own way here. I wanted to see this and it had a shady tinge to it. That's all I'm gonna say. I'm gonna leave it at that, Danny, would you agree? I absolutely agree to that. All right, So but check it out. You want to support Katia and the crew, the world's tallest models. They're doing their thing. Their fashion show is on the

barn Storming Tour. Check them out. We got to party with them a little bit later afterwards. It was a lot of fun. A good time was had by all. We only got a couple of minutes left here on the Fantasy Freestyle. So the one thing I want to tell you JP, I apologize. We're gonna have to push my trap game. My estro's back to next week. But the one thing I want to do I don't know if. I don't know if my best friend forever Mikey Florio's down there or anybody else. But since I saw you

guys laughed, last July first happened. July first is not only the start of a new fiscal year, but I call it Bobby Boni a day. And if you're a Mets fan, you know about this. Bobby Bonilla last played for the New York Mets. He had won sixty for them, and he was due on his contract five point nine

million dollars left. Instead of taking the money up front, he decided to defer his payment get deferred payments, And what that meant with interest was from the year two thousand ten until the year two thousand thirty five, twenty five years including last weekend, Bobby Bonia gets a check for one point two million dollars from the New York Mets, still for laying on his couch, or for barbecuing out in the Bronx, or for doing some but he gets one point to million dollars this July one and every

July one from now until two thousand and thirty five. I gotta tell you I want his agent or money manager, because that was an awesome deal. The Mets in the wilpon S thought at this point in time that because they were in bed with Bernie made Off, they thought that they were getting ten percent returns on their money. So they thought if they deferred payment to Bobby Bonia with eight percent interest, they were still coming out ahead on the deal, and which is used their interest to

pay Bobby Bonia. But then, as you know, the thing went down with made Off and the Willponds, and now they don't have that. And so for now and for the next seven teen years, Bobby Bonia will be making one point two million dollars on every July one. So that's why I call it Bobby Bonia Day. Dilly dilly to Bobby Bonia. All right, um, check it out. We're about to get out of here. We only got a couple of minutes left, and so what two minutes left to be exact? And so what I wanna do is,

I'm gonna tell you about next week's show. Next week, what we're gonna do is we're gonna preview another division. We did the a f C West this week, we'll probably go on over to the NFC West. We're gonna get my guys the Trap Game. My Estro's back on and popping on the show. We gotta get them into the flow. My man, JP the Night Owl has not heard the speeds Fantasy Football remixes from The Trap Game, my Stro, So we're gonna get them live and direct.

We'll bring in JP to talk about any updates as it relates to NBA free agency trades, that sort of thing. I told you about my final four for the World Cup. I am riding again with France Belgium over Brazil in the upset, which would would be the upset of the ground, right, So I like France to move on as a favorite. I like Belgium to prove pull the upset, part of which is because I got my man, Romo Lulukaku that's the guy who I expect to score the most goals

in the tournament. Me and my boy Frank standfill have that bet. Keep it lock to Chris Venture the Analyst. He's got some good looks on on the World Cup as well. Then I like Croatia to um, you know, overcome the collusion, overcome the stray dogs and puting out there. And I like Croatia to advance to the semifinals, and I like England to move on. So give it England, Croatia, Belgium and France, all of them from Europe. So you can bet the continent of the winner. Right now, give

me Europe. We're gonna talk about World Cup, We're gonna talk about the NFC West, We're gonna play some trap game my destros, and we're gonna catch up with JP the Night Owl next week for the Fantasy Freestyle and any of the updates. But it's your boy, Dame Martinez Speeds, the spitting Statistician, the stable genius, and vocal minority right here on the Fantasy Freestyle on the award winning Fantasy Sports Radio Network.
