Penultimate recap of the week in TrashTalk Fantasy League before the switch to Playoffs. And when we see that the week had started with Quickley and Washington at the top, we say to ourselves that it is really time to put an end to our nerves.

# The tauliers of the past week
The podium of the week
Twenty-fourth week of play, twenty-fourth podium, twenty-fourth absence of a member of the TrashTalk team. We have to face the facts, we are certainly zero, quite simply.
The individual podium
Top 3 from the same team, it’s heavy, very heavy. It remains to be confirmed collectively.
The team podium
One more deck to hold and it’s the regular season champion title for Les Ducs. After so many weeks in the lead, it would be stupid to crack now.
# Last week’s best picks
- Monday : Immanuel Quickley – 70 points (0,09% des picks)
- Mardi : P.J. Wahsington – 67 points (0,48% des picks)
- Wednesday : Giannis Antetokounmpo et Jrue Holiday – 79 points (1,3% des picks)
- THURSDAY : Jayson Tatum – 69 points (15,4% des picks)
- Friday : Jayson Tatum – 74 points (1,3% des picks)
- SATURDAY : Luka Doncic – 71 points (20,1% des picks)
- Sunday : Anthony Davis – 70 points (3,3% des picks)
# Last week’s carrots
- Joel Embiid (2.3% of picks): DNP, too afraid of Jokic
The absence was announced, but as we have an agenda against the Sixers and Joel Embiid, we have to put it in the carrots of the week
- Jaylen Brown (7,9% des picks) : 17 points vs Wizards
Tatum back, Jaylen Brown did not repeat his big performance on Sunday. On the contrary, he even typed a rather rotten score, 7.9% of players thank him for the carrot.
- Julius Randle (3,9% des picks) : 2 points vs Heat
An ankle that goes into a spin and it’s almost 4% of the TrashTalk Fantasy League that ends up in PLS.
- Jrue Holiday (15% des picks) : 9 points vs Celtics
The guy comes out of Best Pick with his career high points, only two meetings showing up, so few choices. You have tried, and you have harvested a very beautiful carrot.
- Ja Morant (11,8% des picks) : 10 points vs Clippers
After putting down his gun, we would appreciate if he also drops this carrot.
- Nikola Jokic (6,1% des picks) : DNP vs Warriors
As we are anti-Sixers and pro-Nuggets (or the opposite, it depends on the day and the opinion), we could not sanction Joel Embiid and ignore the carrot posed by Nikola Jokic.
# The successes of the past week
- Immanuel Quickley (12 picks) : 70 points vs Rockets
Career record for Quickley. Needless to say, pick against the Rockets, it’s a great spot.
- P.J. Washington (0,48% des picks) : 67 points vs Thunder
Second best pick of the week in yolo mode. Panzani Wednesday started early…
- Tim Hardaway Jr. (0,3% des picks) : 54 points vs Heat
A good score one game out of ten for Junior, so it was time to pick him. You can now forget about it until the end of the season.
# Last week’s trophies
- LaVar: Take Lonzo or LaMelo when they face off on Friday, March 31
Unsurprisingly, no one fell into the trap of taking one of the two absent brothers for the end of the season.
# The trophies of the coming week
- Last Call: Make best pick on the final day of the regular season on Sunday, April 9
Do you still have premiums left? Will they play? Or will we end up with Austin Reaves as the best pick?
# Our pick of the week
LeBron James vs Clippers : The two franchises are close in the standings, the Clippers have the advantage and are above the Playin bar to qualify directly for the Playoffs. LeBron has announced that they are playing the most important games of his career, but so far that is not enough to go for sixth place in the West. And if a good part of this confrontation was played on Wednesday?
It’s the last week of TrashTalk Fantasy League coming up. The last moment to make a difference, whether individually or as a team. We don’t give up, we give everything and then we give ourselves a few days off to breathe while waiting for the Playoffs.
