Playoff NBA DFS Picks For Fanduel 8/21/2020

If you have been using my lineups during playoffs in GPPs, pools, or multipliers, then you are seeing quite a bit of green. I will always back player pools as the best way to cash, but 2/4 of my lineups so far have hit in all formats. You would be even if you only played 50-50s or double ups, but very profitable otherwise. Yesterday was a low-scoring slate, but I made the right and unpopular choice in pairing Giannis with AD, instead of LeBron. Today, we have the same 8 teams playing as on Monday and Wednesday, with these being the unlucky games that I haven't hit on yet. I am feeling confident that that will change today. Let's begin the breakdown of the slate! (Note: Something came up in the morning, so I wasn't able to add descriptions for the players since I had to leave before the start of the slate)
