Oh, Yokey Artichoke, let's do this thing.

Hey everybody, welcome to Old Man Squad Fantasy Basketball and Dan Vespers.

This show is presented by FanDuel and this is a brand new show topic specialists.

This is valuable in all formats too.

And before we get into the list, just a quick thought on why specialists are important.

It's March 6th at the time of recording this.

You guys are, I think this show is going to drop on March 7th in the morning.

If I'm not mistaken.

Specialists are useful everywhere.

If you're in a head-to-head league, you can look for a specialist and match them up with a good part of their schedule.

Use the streaming calendar for that.

And bang, you've got categories to attack for your head-to-head playoffs.

Look to see what you're good at, look to see what your opponent is good at.

And tailor your pickups and drops based on specialist level appeal guys that are good at specific categories.

Two or three of them where they make most of their headway, but maybe aren't a top 100,

maybe they're not top 109 category guys.

An example of this, let's just pull one out of the clouds, would be a guy like a Ryan

Calc runner who clearly over the last, however, whatever you want to say, month, top 150.

He's having six points, five rebounds, 1.2 blocks and 68% from the field.

Like Dan, what the hell, what could that guy possibly be a specialist in?

That's good enough for specialist appeal and blocks and field goal percent.

Yeah, I know, even with four field goal attempts per game, but if you're making basically three out of four every day,

and you do that over a three games and four night stretch,

then you put a nine for 12 on your ledger.

You put four blocks on your ledger.

Four blocks and four days is pretty good.

If you've got seven blocks out of a week from any of your other slides, you'd be like,

yeah, that's pretty good.

So that's where a guy like Calc runner, yeah, he's not going to help you much and other stuff.

Three games, what's he going to get you?

15, 18 points, something like that.

Maybe a steal, maybe three assists.

It's nothing, but that's not why you're doing it.

That's the purpose of specialists.

And it's also relevant.

I guess in head to head, it's maybe more relevant because you can tailor them to a good

scheduling stretch if you get it back to back or three games and four nights or whatever,

or a five and seven even if you're really lucky.

Yeah, obviously, at the end of a week, if you look back, you might win blocks if you got

four to five extra blocks from a good specialist push.

But what about the roadside?

Why is that side relevant in any way?

Well, that's because at this time of year, you guys roado-leagers,

you should be looking at your standings and not only should you be looking at what

you're close to the people above and below you in the standings.

You should be looking at how to, how many games you guys have played, meaning

are you six games ahead of someone else in games played, but 11 blocks behind?

So that's really more like 16, 17 blocks behind.

Or is it the flip flop?

Are you 11 blocks behind, but your six games lower than that other team?

So in reality, you're more like six blocks behind.

So you can make really good calculated gambles on where to throw in,

use an extra utility slot on a blocks specialist or whatever the hell you want to call it,

and bam, you're figuring out where you can gain ground the fastest in roado.

So specialists are important everywhere.

I'm not going to do this preface at the beginning of all of our specialist shows.

My hope is that I can do kind of a refresh on this weekly at this time of year,

because this is when specialists are super important.

We're in the last five and change weeks of the NBA regular season.

And you take that, take it to the bank, go win some stuff.

This is what I just tweeted out.

We're just going to go vertically here through the tweet.

I've separated the specialists by categories.

We're going to go pretty quick.

I'm just going to give you a couple of stats, maybe on each guy.

Spend 15 to 20 seconds per player.

The whole show shouldn't take more than 20 minutes.

I know there are a lot of players on this list,

but there are also areas of overlap.

So I may need to come up with a way to annotate the overlap,

like a Daniel Gafford is the first name on the list.

This is by the way, it's not separated by priority.

I'll try to give you priority as I go through each chunk of things,

but also like when you see a Gafford, like Dan, feel go percent.

Is there anything else?

Yes, he will be in another spot as well.

So you can try to mix and match that way.

The names in the field go percent pocket.

There are actually a lot of them right now.

This is a good time for centers.

Oh, I wanted to make, I wanted to also note before we get into the names,

these are low rostered guys,

but it's also guys that you won't find on the burger board.

What the hell is the burger board?

Is what some of you are saying?

And the burger board is what many of you that have been

following for a long time are saying.

The burger board is the injury replacement board.

So you might be looking at this streaming list and you're like,

Dan, where the hell is Oh, so Iqadaro?

He's on the burger board because he's just an ad.

He's gonna be better than a specialist with Mark Williams out.

You might be looking at this list and you might be like,

Dan, where the hell is?

I don't know, Gershon Yabasele.

He's on the burger board.

A Dambona on the burger board.

Okay.

So if there's a name that you're wondering why it's missing from this this list,

go compare it to the injury replacement board.

In my Google sheet, it's in the show description.

It's completely free.

You don't have to pay a cent.

And it's sort of kept up to date this time of year.

It's hard right now because there's I'm trying to do like three shows a day

with oftentimes children yelling at me and disrupting my sleep.

So some names won't make the streamer list if they're on the burger list.

Sometimes I'm going to screw something up and I'm going to accidentally have somebody

in both, but that's just because there are a lot of names.

And I'm not checking the list four times because honestly,

I think it's more important to get it out to you.

And if I accidentally have like trade Jones, I have in both places.

Oops, my bad.

He's kind of both specialist and straight up ad.

So the field goal present guys are Daniel Gafford,

Jaime Akez Jr., who I probably should have annotated as, you know,

guard wing eligible.

That makes them interesting here because it's out of position.

I would assume it was out of position.

Field goal percent trade Jones is out of position.

Field goal percent.

Nick Richards, Ryan Calkbrenner, Robert Williams, the time lowered.

Michael Potter, Isaiah Jackson, and Mitchell Robinson.

Gambling problem called 1-800 gambler.

My favorite name, and this is again, there's a personal preference here.

Mitchell Robinson and Robert Williams,

likely to sit out back-to-back.

We know Mitchell Robinson is definitely going to sit out the back-to-back.

We don't always know for sure if time, Lord will, usually he will.

My favorites for just feel goal percent alone

would probably be Daniel Gafford.

Because his minutes are a little more consistent than the other guys on this list.

It looks like he's going to sit out this latest back-to-back for the Mavericks,

but it hasn't been the case all season long.

He's taking five shots a game for the season at over 60% from the field.

That's a really good field goal percent kick in the push.

Mitchell Robinson is also up among that list.

He's never going to take any shots, but he's also going to shoot a ridiculous.

He's at 72% for the year on three and a half field goal attempts per game.

You're getting kind of the same thing from most of these guys.

Obviously, there's an advantage to having someone like an I.O.

or a trade Jones or a Heimei kez because you can slot them into a different part of your roster

and getting a 50% clip from a guard might even be more valuable to your team

than getting a 60% out of a center.

It kind of depends on who else you have on your roster.

None of these guys is guaranteed to be a truly massive, massive, massive impact guy.

Heimei kez as kind of wing level.

It's going to bounce around. He's not going to get you that 60% of these other guys

probably will. Robert Williams is at 71%.

He's actually been the best of the bunch lately for whatever that's worth,

but that also came with the game where Donovan Klingon got ejected.

Robert Williams resting days.

You're giving something and taking something with Jalen Smith and Monis Pazellis out.

Nick Richards is also pretty good for just this one category.

He's going to get a few more shots than these other guys.

And if you're wondering why Jackson Hayes is not on this list,

it's because Deandre Agnes heard right now because he's over on the burger board.

But obviously, start with the burger board guys.

If those guys are there, Hayes, Iggadaro, a Dumbona,

these are really good field goal percent guys that probably have a larger

role than the dudes on the streaming list.

But field goal percent happens to be one of the easier ones to find on the waiver wire right now.

Other little footnotes on the field goal percent category.

I'm talking longer on this than I planned on.

Mike Apater, more of a he'll get you a couple of three pointers,

which the other guys on this list won't.

Maybe IO will get you a three pointer out of that guard spot.

But of the big man eligible types, he's really the only one that stretches the floor at all.

Free throw percent interesting is probably the hardest thing to find on the wire.

Because anybody who has a good free throw percent is probably only taking like one and a half

per game. The names that I would look at is IO again, who's a good foul shooter.

Not going to take a ton of them. He's only at like one and a half over the last couple of weeks,

but he's a very good free throw shooter.

So balance it out, which unfortunately leaves us only one name really of a guy who's a positive

impact free throw dude and just a disaster everywhere else. And that's Cam Thomas.

He's averaging four free throws a game in 17 and a half minutes with Milwaukee.

He's literally doing nothing else.

He's an absolute dumpster fire of a fantasy player.

But he's good at getting to the foul line and making them and it's kind of the only thing he's

doing right now. So sorry, if you're looking for free throw percent, your options are somewhat limited.

Three pointers is the heaviest thing you can find on the wire, which is a thing that changed like

seven X six seven years ago. And it's and it's held.

There are a lot of guys floating around out there that get you like two three pointers a game

and don't really do much else. Those guys are Clay Thompson, Max Christie, Bryce Sensaba,

Noah Cloudy, who has a front court eligibility, Duncan Robinson, Marcus Smart, Tim Hardaway,

Jr. Landry's Shamit, Kobe White, who's going to get rest days off. Jalen Wells,

who's been hot lately, AJ Green, Micah Potter, who we just talked about from up above and Sam Merrill.

Favorites on this list, the safest names on this list are probably Duncan Robinson,

Jalen Wells, and Marcus Smart. The nuggets have some guys coming back or I might have put Tim Hardaway

Jr. in that mix as well. Clay is old. We have no idea what he's going to do day to day. Max

Christie is super inconsistent and guys are coming back for the Maverick. So his usage is likely

to go down. Duncan Robinson is at the same role the whole season. He is unbelievably predictable,

which yeah, not good. His rank for the year is 196, but he's also at three three pointers

for the season. And almost every cross section of the year you look at, he's somewhere between

two and four three pointers a game, which is really helpful. When you want a specialist,

he's the guy. You know exactly what you're going to get. Love a specialist where you know what you're

going to get. Lately, Marcus Smart has actually been pretty damn reliable as well. He's sort of

slid in with the main Lakers unit. He just doesn't take as many threes as Robinson. So not going to

get as many threes, but a more consistent role. And you'll also find Marcus Smart on the steals board.

So there's that sort of hybrid usage, hybrid, hybrid game thing going on for him. Rest these guys,

Kobe White is probably the best overall of the bunch, but he's also going to get rest days and his

role is smaller. He's just going to be out there chucking away. Jalen Wells is also pretty reliable

for scoring. You'll see him pop up again on that board. And then Noah Clowney and Micah Potter

are interesting here because they have center or power forward eligibility or sometimes both,

which again, if you're trying to up your three pointer count and you can find a power forward

or a center that's going to hit you a couple of ballgame, that sometimes is more useful than a guard

who gets you three. You might already have a guard who gets you two. You might be able to go from

a center who gets you zero to a center who gets you two. That's a bigger gain points. A lot of

guys who are scoring, but none of them that great with the exception of a couple, the names on the

points board of Bryce sense of awe will Riley. Tray Johnson, Noah Clowney, who we talked about

before, Jaime Akez, who we've already talked about Colin Sexton who's been on a storing scoring

binge, Jeremiah Fears, Malik Monk, Tim Hardaway Jr., who we talked about before, Kobe Rest,

also talked about Kobe Rest, Kobe White, who rests, Quentin Grimes, and Jalen Wells.

A lot of the guys are kind of equal on this list. Right now Colin Sexton is the best of the bunch

because the whole back court in Chicago is hurt as Josh Gidey and or Amherty Simons and or J

Nivey show up. Sexton wasn't even playing when all those guys were healthy for like a game

together, but I don't know how long that's going to be. So right now Colin Sexton, probably your

best choice for points. The next tear down of these guys would probably be some combination of Clowney,

Riley Fears, Jaime Akez Jr. Kobe White and Jalen Wells. Maybe Wells, kind of near the upper

crust of that, and then guys like Sensible, Tray Johnson, Monk Grimes. Did I say Grimes?

That does they Grimes, right? Those guys are kind of the next tear down. Points are obnoxious,

and there's such a small gap between most of these dudes. Like, oh, Tray Johnson is going to get

you 11. Malik Monk's going to get you 12.2 or something like that. It's so little. It's so little.

Paper Razor Thin Margin between these guys.

Speaking of Razor Thin Margin, that's what you have to be able to conquer if you're going to

win the Jason Tatum prop bet. I actually wonder what that was. Tatum played by the time you guys

are watching this. And Fandall had an opportunity for you guys to get down on Jason Tatum's first

made basket after his return. There's also overs and unders on everything he did. They're going to

do that again with other guys. So just keep an eye on it. If you think it was a three, a free throw,

what was it? Was it a layup? Man, people think it might be a layup. I might play the field on

this one for plus 190. All that. It's a very fun little thing you can try. All of that is over at

Fandall and the Fandall Sportsbook. Check them out. There are title sponsor. Rebounds. Not as many

rebound guys as field goal percent guys. You'll notice that it kind of thinned the herd a little bit

because a lot of those field goal percent guys are not playing enough minutes to get good rebounds.

So the field goal percent guys that carry over for rebounds as well would be Daniel Gafford,

Nick Richards, and Mitchell Robinson. But we've got a few new names on there. Daron Sharp and

Jericho Sims are the rebound guys who aren't really doing a big dent in field goal percent.

Sims, because he literally never shoots. And Daron Sharp, who also kind of bounces around a

little bit. He's okay at field goal percent, but it's a little more inconsistent. Again, if you're

going down this path, you're probably looking for somebody that has sort of dual or triple category

specialist appeal, which would be a Gafford or Richards or Robinson. If you can handle the rest days,

maybe more so for Roto Mitchell Robinson and Gafford. Honestly, maybe more for Roto.

Nick Richards maybe makes more sense for head-to-head leagues. Or maybe it's just about schedule.

But these are the guys that are getting rebounds. Gafford,

maybe not quite as many as the others. He's at seven over the last three weeks. That's not bad.

Seven's pretty good. Where's Mitchell Robinson at over that stretch? He's at 7.3. So that's okay.

Dare we look at Jericho Sims? He's at 8.3. Later in the clubhouse, he's also shooting 90%.

On two and a half field goal attempts per game in 24 minutes, literally will not shoot.

Let's keep going. We've got six names in the assist bucket. Ryan Nemhard,

Davey on Mitchell, Trey Jones, who we've already talked about. It is actually a burger board guy.

Jeremiah Fieres, Kobe White and Walter Clayton. I'd like to draw your attention to the highest

average assist rate of any of these guys over the last however many days. And that is Walter Clayton

out in Memphis. He's been on an assist binge since they started to let him kind of run free at point

guard over the last three weeks. He's at 7.3 assists per game. Same thing over the last two weeks.

By the way, that number hasn't shifted at all over the last one week. He's at nine assists per game.

So that's kind of fun. He to me is the leader in the clubhouse here. Ryan Nemhard,

probably going to get you about four to six. Trey Jones, Jeremiah Fieres, also kind of in that

same range. Kobe White and Davey on Mitchell, I would put as my least favorites in this assist

department. But again, you might be looking, you might be looking for schedule over anything else.

Clayton has a good schedule to start next week, but a bad schedule to finish this one.

Nemhard had a good schedule to finish this week and then pivot's more into not as good of one.

And so you just, you know, find what makes sense for your team. Find where the schedule fits.

If you're in roto, see you. If there's overlap, obviously someone like a trade Jones makes way

more sense for a roto leak than Walter Clayton, because you can still get five four five six assists

and not take the big hit and feel goal percent and turnovers and all that other stuff.

But if literally the only thing you need is assists with this mattering of steals.

Okay, then you pivot back the other way.

Needs parts fast. O'Reilly auto parts as fast. Need them now. We've got now. No matter what you need,

we have thousands of professional parts people doing their part to make sure you have it.

We're O'Reilly fast. Just one part that makes O'Reilly stand apart. The professional parts people.

Jeremiah fears if you needed to assist with maybe a little bit of scoring. That's your choice

there. Same with Kobe White. Probably also will hit you a three pointer or two.

So again, find the name that fits your team from these lists. Steeles, you're going to see a few

names that carried over from other categories like trade zones, Marcus Smart, Quentin Grimes,

Walter Clayton. New names if you are targeting steals and something else or just steals will be

John Contrara and Utah. Literally all he does. Dylan Harper has been pretty good with steals

out in San Antonio. He's problematic in a few categories, but he's scoring a little bit lately.

So he's been pretty good. We've talked a lot about trade zones. Herb Jones has been doing his

sort of old-fashioned steel thing, but it's also old-fashioned Herb Jones can't shoot and

doesn't really want to all that much because of how many scorers are playing for the pelicans.

It's interesting though that Herb Jones is shooting 32% over the last eight games and he still

top 145-ish. If he could just shoot 42%, he'd probably be a top 100 guy and then he'd be a three

and Steele's dude, but he hasn't been. So I can't put him there. I just keep waiting for a

positive mean reversion for him and there, but just doesn't happen.

Marcus Smart, we've talked about Kason Wallace. He's been a Steele's specialist the entire year.

Last two weeks he's been great because Shay's missed a bunch of time in there,

and Heart and Stein, and Caruso, and Jalen Williams is still out and on and on and on and on.

But mostly he's been outstanding in Steele's. If you can catch him on a game when some guys are out,

more power to you, but their schedule's not that great. So I wouldn't rely on him for more than that.

Quentin Grimes, I think I started to glossed over him a little bit and Kelly Ubrei's due back,

so not my favorite in this bucket. And he's only at 0.7 steals over the last couple of weeks.

Anyway, Keon Ellis and Chris Dunn are the two names that we haven't talked about. Be very careful

with Keon Ellis because Don of the Mitchell might be back for the cab's next ballgame,

which would probably render Ellis mostly cooked. Chris Dunn, I don't really have many warnings for

you there. He's going to play high 20s and minutes. He's probably going to average about a

steal and a half per game. He might might. He's been pretty good actually the last couple of weeks

where he's actually gotten you some rebounds and assists as well. I don't know if that holds

as Darius Garland gets revved up, but in the short term, you could probably argue that Chris Dunn

is both a Steele's and a cis specialist. At least over the last couple of weeks, he's had more

assists than some of the guys on my assist board. And four and a half to five rebounds out of the

guard spot, also not bad. And he's shooting 60% over the last month. He's a terrible scorer,

but he's at 49.5% for the year. So there's even a little bit of field goal percent appeal.

Not that you're going to make a dent, but to use him maybe instead of a guard who has a crappy

field goal percent, he falls into that trade Jones bucket just with far fewer offensive opportunities.

And the last category I want to cover on today's show is blocks. You're going to see a lot of

names that you've seen all. Oh, that's not true. I have a little bonus category of the the well-rounded

guys. You've already heard Daniel Gaffer, Ryan Cochbrenner, Robert Williams, Mitchell Robinson.

I'm throwing Isaiah Jackson in the mix. I think now with Yannick Conan Neterhouser down,

you're going to see Jackson probably play around 16 to 18 minutes per game. That should be enough for

him to get about five rebounds in a block with decent field goal percent. Not a great option,

but again, not dead in the water. And Isaiah Stewart pops up in this discussion. He's back from

suspension. He's been an excellent shop blocker all season long. And he's managed to do it without

doing a much else, really, other than being kind of efficient with 10 points, five boards.

None of this stuff is really good enough to make a dent, but he's at 1.7 blocks per game on the

year. So really good shop blocker and Isaiah Stewart. And he's back. And then you've got these guys

that are like kind of, they're not really specialists, but they're streamable. If you don't even

really know what categories you're hunting for. Those players are Chris Middleton, Tristan D'Silva,

Pele Larson, Al Hoerford, Julian Champagne, Hoerford, by the way, should just be rostered, I should

mention, Christian Brown, Baylor Shireman, Bobby Portis, Bilal Kulibeli, and Justin Champagne.

I have fears on using Hoerford or Justin Champagne in unlimited games formats.

Hoerford is going to rest back to back. Champagne is going to get random days off. Middleton might

also, but overall, I mean, just quickly here with Middleton, you're going to get a little bit of

scoring, a little bit of threes, a little bit of rebound, a little bit of assists. Nothing great,

but a little bit of those things, those four and probably a decent free throw. Tristan D'Silva,

you're going to get a little bit of scoring, a little bit of threes, a little bit of steals. That's

probably about what you get there. Pele Larson is like Chris Middleton. They almost have the same

fantasy game these days, little bit of scoring. What's Larson at over the last, say, two weeks.

11, three and a half and four with a steal. So a little bit of scoring, a little bit of rebound,

a little bit of assists, a little bit of steal, decent percentages.

Al Hoerford, he's been good at a bunch of stuff. Far better than stream level. Hoerford is

top 15 over the last two weeks. 15, five and four with two and a half defensive stats,

three and a half threes on 52% shooting. That's not a specialist. That's just a guy you should roster.

Julian Champenning, who runs pretty hot and cold over the last month. Julian's number 117. He's

a 10 points five boards to assist two threes, a little bit of a bunch of stuff, decent free throw.

Christian Brown has played better, although Aaron Gordon coming back is probably going to ruin that.

He's at 13, six and three with not much else on a good field goal percent. So he's like four decent

at four categories, not great at any. Baylor Shireman, the definition of okay at almost everything

and not really great at anything. Although, yes, it's, is it six rebounds over the last month,

but nine and a half points, one and a half threes, two and a half assists, not many defensive stats

on 47% from the field. That's a definition of average and like everything. Bobby Portis. I mean,

I guess we could call him a scoring and threes specialist from a big man spot, but also he's at like

kind of okay scoring and kind of okay threes and five boards. No real assist or defensive stats,

but his field goal percent has been decent. His free throws been decent. His turnos have been low.

He's adequate at like six things. Last two names are Bilal cool a little bit,

coolably and Justin Champenny, a couple of wizards I threw in there. Champ Justin is at 12.5,

six and one steel one block, one three good percentages over the last month. That's not a specialist.

That's just a guy who's been startable over that stretch and for coolably, he's at 12.5 points,

just like Champenny, same number of threes, but two and a half defensive stats, bad free throw number,

better defensive stats, better assists. These guys again, they do a little bit of a lot of stuff

and you just have to like figure out which ones actually blend in, but it does kind of make these

guys hard to play if you're in a head to head battle unless the, you know, four things that they're

okay at are also four of the five categories you're trying to win. Otherwise, you might want to pivot

back up into a true specialist and get two or three categories that they're much better at and then

try to shore up the other ones on your own. Like if Chris Middleton, you look at what he's done

lately, but has he done lately? What's his numbers over the last three weeks? He's at 14,

four and four with good free throw percent. So you better be gunning for points, boards, assists,

free throw percent among the five categories you want. If that's the case, Middleton's been pretty

useful for you. If it's not, you probably hasn't been. That's why the, a little of many guys are

harder to stream right now, but if they fit, oh, baby, then you love it. Because if you're trying to

win all four of those things, then you got a guy who's slightly, who's average or a little even tiny

bit above average in each of them, but without that one, you know, big punch category that a lot of

these other specialists have that we just talked about. Well, you can't quite do the same damage to

your roto stats or strengthening of your head to head stats. And those are the specialists right

now. And again, I want to try to update this every week. I'm going to keep the list on a notepad

document here for myself. I'll just go back through once a week. We'll add names. We'll subtract names.

The next specialist show will be a little bit shorter because we'll try to focus on things that

have maybe changed over the last couple of weeks and, or week if we can do it once a week.

And we roll from there. Thanks for watching everybody. Please make sure to subscribe on the way out.

That's really important, especially here at the end of the season. Try to pile up a few of you guys

before we roll into the quiet off season where we do still do anywhere from three to five shows per

week. I don't take the off season off. Off season breaks are for whimps. We go all year, baby.

I will skip, you know, a day or two here and there won't be quite so consistent. But right now,

we're doing three shows basically a day. Two of them are mushed together on YouTube. But we're

hustling here for the head to head playoffs. Hang with us. We're going to win. Damn it. We're going

to do it together. I'm Dan. I'll see you.
