Coach Talk

CHEMDAWGS
Bravo, CHEMDAWGS. Good work deploying a team that blew the opponent out by more than 38 points this past matchup.
Warriors
Fortunately, this week's problem is pretty easy to diagnose, Warriors. Going with Robert Tonyan in a fantasy matchup where your opposition put up more than 143 points... let's deem this to be a learning experience and all agree that it won't happen again?
