Alright, let’s talk about this “fantasy score” thing in NBA PrizePicks. I ain’t no expert, mind you, just a regular person trying to figure this stuff out.
So, from what I gather, it’s like this: every little thing a player does on the court gets ’em points, like a game within a game, you know? Like, if they score a point, that’s one fantasy point, easy peasy. Seems simple enough, right? But then it gets a bit more complicated.
Now, if a player grabs a rebound, that’s worth a bit more than a point, like 1.2 fantasy points. I reckon it’s ’cause gettin’ that ball is important, keeps the other team from scorin’. And if a player helps someone else score, that’s even better, they call it an “assist,” and that’s worth 1.5 points. See, it’s all about helpin’ the team.
And then there’s the fancy stuff, like when a player snatches the ball away from the other team, a “steal,” they call it. That’s worth a whole bunch, like 3 whole points! Guess they really like it when you take the ball away. And if a player blocks a shot, that’s also 3 points. Keeps the other team from scorin’, just like a rebound but fancier.
- Points: 1 point
- Rebounds: 1.2 points
- Assists: 1.5 points
- Steals: 3 points
- Blocks: 3 points
But it ain’t all sunshine and roses, ya know? If a player messes up and gives the ball to the other team, a “turnover,” they lose a point. See, it’s like a penalty for bein’ clumsy. Gotta be careful with that ball!
Now, this PrizePicks thing, it’s like bettin’ on how many points these players gonna get, but not real points, these fantasy points. You pick a few players, say two, three, or four, and you guess if they’re gonna get more or less points than what the smart folks think they will. If you’re right, you win some money. If not, well, better luck next time. It ain’t rocket science, but it ain’t exactly easy neither.
They got this thing where every 10 yards a player runs or catches the ball is worth a point too, but that’s more for football, I think. In basketball, it’s all about points, rebounds, assists, steals, and blocks. And don’t forget about them turnovers, those sneaky little point-stealers.
I heard tell you can find all this information in the PrizePicks app, they got a “scoring chart” or somethin’. Probably hidden in some corner, like all them important things are. But if you poke around enough, you’ll find it. Just gotta be patient.
So, that’s the gist of it, as far as I can tell. Points for good things, take away points for bad things, and then you bet on it. Simple as that, right? Maybe not. But that’s how I understand it, and hopefully, it helps you understand it too. Now, go on and try your luck, but don’t come cryin’ to me if you lose, I already told ya, I ain’t no expert!
Remember, this is just for fun, don’t go bettin’ your life savings or nothin’. Just a little somethin’ to make watchin’ the game a bit more interestin’. And always play responsible, ya hear?
