MyGuy Tips: 5/13/14. Pacing the Thunder & Clips


I've made ANOTHER change to the blogs. I've moved the "Tips" portion to its very own page: MyGuy Guidelines and Tips. So If you want to read the Tips you can just click the link

Too bad my job can't be as easy as tweeting: "Pick Lebron James All day, Er'r day" because that would make everything go by so smoothly. Lebron racked up 49 points and if you chose him every quarter, pat yourself on the back for getting +1000 on your score. The games today are a "tad" harder to get points. Especially if you don't follow along live. 

I will be live tweeting the Pacers/Wizards game tonight close to the end. I will be available for the 4th of Clippers/Thunder (depending on how long softball runs.) Follow the discussion @HuuMyGuy on Twitter. 

Pacers at Wizards (7ET TNT) 
Pacers
George (Points B, Rebounds B-, Assists C+, Steals B-, Blocks C+)
Hibbert (Pts: B-, Rebs: A, Blks A)
West (Pts B, Rebs B-, Blks C-)
Wizards
Wall (Pts B, Rebs C+, Assists B, Steals B+)
Beal (Pts B-, Asts B-, Streak B)
Nene (Pts B-, Rebs B-, Blks C-)

Remember when Hibbert was being held to 0 points and cheer leading on the bench? That was soooo last week. Hibbert is producing pretty well right now. Last game Paul George was THE MAN...pulling off a mini Lebron. Paul George is the best player on the court for either team. He's also been inconsistent this series. Game 1: 18 pts. Game 2: 11. Game 3: 23. Game 4: 39. So your options are George if you want to just put a player in and leave. He has the best chance to get 150 by himself. However, if you're following along the game in real time, Hibbert is steady, since game 2 he is averaging 7 averages, 2 blocks and 20 points. He'll be consistent, and less likely to lose a streak. So Hibbert is a more steady option.

My Pick: Hibbert (because I will be following) George (if I wasn't following) or Wall (best player on the Wizards)
Blocks: Hibbert, Nene or Gortat
Protect Your Points Player (When you hit 150 in a quarter): Bynum (Pacers) What is the PYP Player?


Thunder At Clippers (9:30 ET TNT)
Durant (Points A++, Rebounds B, Assists B, Free throws A, Streak A-)
Westbrook (Pts B+, Rebs B+, Asts B+, FT % B, Streak B) 
Paul (Points B, Rebs C, Assists A, Steals B, FT% B+, Streak B+)
Griffin (Points A, Rebs A-, Blocks B-, FT% C+, Streak B)

If you've been watching the Playoffs, you will agree this has been the most entertaining series. The best part is, you will most likely have one of the four superstars in at all times. When one sits, you can just go to the next one. This is the "Lebron James" rule in a way, you can probably stick with Durant for the entire quarter and you will be fine. The only problem is the Thunder have Russell Westbrook as well and sometimes he takes over. I've learned not to panic and try to switch to the who I think is on a streak, more often than not sticking with one player most of the quarter works out better. That's just me... I follow Kuno's advice, "The less you do, the more you do."



I think Durant takes a break in the 2nd quarter. I would definitely move to someone else on the list and right back to him when he gets back in.

My Pick: 1) Durant (All 4 quarters) 2) Griffin 3) Westbrook 4) Paul
Blocks: Ibaka, Griffin, Jordan

PYP Player: Turkoglu (Clippers)
