Tips Fantasy NBA Playoffs M14

M14 marks the start of the Eastern Conference Finals between the Celtics and the Heat, as well as the end of the series between the Clippers and the Nuggets. So many emotions going into these ones, but we’ll stay focused in order to give you the best tips for your fantasy team: let’s go!

Guards

• Jimmy Butler (Miami Heat, 15.1 credits): The heart and soul of the Miami Heat is ready to take over the ECF. He had some subpar performances, but he also proved that he can step it up when it matters the most.
• Marcus Smart (Boston Celtics, 10.8 credits): We already knew he was a great player, but he had never been so good fantasy-wise. He’s in the best shape of his career and can basically do it all on both sides of the court. For 10 credits, this is the best you’re going to get.
• Gary Harris (Denver Nuggets, 6.4 credits): After a great performance in game 6, he’s ready to leave it all on the court in the final game of this series. He came back better than ever or, at least, more clutch than ever. The Nuggets need him at his best in order to have a chance.

Forwards

• Kawhi Leonard (Los Angeles Clippers, 20.3 credits): We all know who’s going to take the most responsibilities for the Clippers in game 7. We also know that Kawhi Leonard is as clutch as they come, so it would be really astonishing to see him underperform tonight, win, lose or draw.
• Jayson Tatum (Boston Celtics, 15.9 credits): He’s now officially a superstar, he proved it time and time again during this whole season. When the going gets tough, the tough get going, so how can you not trust Tatum?
• JaMychal Green (Los Angeles Clippers, 5.6 credits): One of the best options if you want to save some credits but still secure a bunch of fantasy points.

Centers

• Nikola Jokic (Denver Nuggets, 19.8 credits): His performance in game 6 was just ridiculous and it’s not even about the stats. He was absolutely dominant from start to finish, allowing the Nuggets to come back from a 19-point deficit. On M14, you need him just as much as coach Malone.
• Ivica Zubac (Los Angeles Clippers, 9.2 credits): He’s not expected to stop Jokic, but at least to slow him down a little bit. If he can’t do it, the Clippers could seriously end up leaving the bubble prematurely., a really mind-blowing scenario.
• Robert Williams III (Boston Celtics, 5.8 credits): Once again, the only convincing option as far as low-cost centers go. At this stage it’s really hard to find 2 top big men, so it’s probably better to settle for this kind of players: low risk, possibly high reward.

Coach

• Brad Stevens (Boston Celtics, 9.5 credits): Even though the Celtics are coming off a very tough series against Toronto, they’ve had a few days to recover, which means they should be healthy and ready to go. On the other hand, the Heat have been sitting on the shelf for a week now, so we’re expecting them to start this series slowly.
