Nikola Vucevic 22 Points/9 Assists Full Highlights (3/14/2018)

Six times this season, a player has been one rebound and one assist shy of a triple-double, as Nikola Vucevic was with his 22/9/9 statline last night. Here are the five other players: Bradley Beal (39/9/9) Russell Westbrook (34/9/9) James Harden (28/9/9) Russell Westbrook (15/9/9) LeBron James (11/9/9) Vucevic maybe isn’t quite on the level…

Terry Rozier 21 Points/9 Assists Full Highlights (3/14/2018)

It seems like Celtics fans have turned on Marcus Smart in favor of their new point guard man-crush, Terry Rozier. Maybe because they don’t want to pay Smart a bunch of money this off-season only for him to continue to be an inefficient-scoring, overconfident-shooting defensive specialist. Maybe because Smart punched a framed painting and exploded…

Quinn Cook 13 Points Full Highlights (3/14/2018)

Quinn Cook, in this game, gave you everything that Stephen Curry gives you, just in smaller quantities. He hit a three pointer (Steph Curry hits three pointers). He got an assist (Steph Curry gets assists). He fouled out in 27 minutes (this is one category where Cook actually exceeded Curry’s normal production). He took eleven…

Nick Young 18 Points Full Highlights (3/14/2018)

I know it’s sort of a cop-out to write a video description about the erroneous nicknames that basketball-references lists for various players, but, come on. “Bean Burrito”? Really? That’s Nick Young’s nickname? He’s a bean burrito? To their credit, they do list his real nickname, “Swaggy P”, before they list “Bean Burrito”, but that’s not…

Marcus Morris 31 Points Full Highlights (3/14/2018)

This wasn’t exactly the Marcus/Markieff Morris battle I was hoping for. It was good, but what I really wanted was for them to cross team barriers, unite their forces, and start beating up a ref like he just insulted their mother (like in Semi-Pro). It was a longshot, because obviously neither one of them wants…

Wayne Ellington 22 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (3/14/2018)

Wayne Ellington really disappointed me in the three-point shootout. I was hyping him up to everyone who would listen (which was basically nobody but hey at least I was trying) and then he went out and pooped his pants in front of everybody. Anything less than a victory for the Waynemaker was unacceptable. Maybe if…

De’Aaron Fox 20 Points Full Highlights (3/14/2018)

Attention De’Aaron Fox: you need to stop shooting floaters RIGHT NOW. I don’t care how “good” you are at them. They need to stop. Floaters are for players who suck so much that they can’t get any other kind of shot. Only the lamest, whitest, unathletic-est PGs make a habit out of driving a bit…

Buddy Hield 24 Points Full Highlights (3/14/2018)

Is there a reason that Buddy “Hield of Dreams” Hield gets only 24 minutes per game? I feel like the 6th overall pick from a year ago who is playing relatively well should be getting all opportunities that the Kings can afford him. A conspiracy theory would be that they can’t play him too much…

D.J. Augustin 32 Points Full Highlights (3/14/2018)

If both D.J. Augustin and Jonathon Simmons had gotten career-highs against the Bucks, I think I would’ve lost it for real. But while Simmons did eclipse his personal best, Augustin fell 3 points shorts of the 35 he had for Detroit (LOL) back in early 2015, so I’m happy as a clam right now. If…

Jonathon Simmons Career High 35 Points/7 Threes Full Highlights (3/14/2018)

I’m not even mad that Jonathon Simmons totally went off on the Bucks, leading his team to an upset victory. I should be, and I’m sure a lot of Bucks fans are, but I’m just… blank. I’m not going to say I knew this was going to happen, but it certainly seemed like something that…
