Seraph – n. A celestial or heavenly being in Abrahamic religions. From Hebrew śərāfîm, “burning ones”. Pl. (-aphs, -aphim or -aphin). Well that’s pretty bad-ass. You play the Wizards, not only do you have to go up against one winged celestial being who may or may not be on fire, you have to go up…

Brandon Knight 26 Points Full Highlights (11/26/2012)
He turned his gaze inwards. What was there to see, here, deep in his own psyche? At first, nothing. Nothing but a vague blurry lightness. Slowly, steadily, the haze condensed and reformed, revealing what had previously been hidden. A glimmering radiance, his inner essence, an immortal being of pure white. It was his soul! He…
Read MoreHasheem Thabeet Career High 13 Points/10 Rebounds First Career Double-Double (11/26/2012)
Hasheem “Tha Bust” Thabeet is notable for being one of the biggest busts of all time. I mean, how can a guy who is 7-3 take 165 attempts to record 10 points and 10 rebounds in the same game? I’m not hating or anything, it’s just a plain fact that this guy sucks. Or USED…
Read MoreAndre Iguodala 23 Points Full Highlights (11/25/2012)
Andre Iguodala thought he had escaped the clutches of mediocrity when he when from Philadelphia to Denver. The Nuggets were supposed to be an up-and-coming young team built around the core of Lawson, Gallo and Faried. Surprise, the Nuggets suck too! Somewhere in New Jersey, David Stern is rubbing his hands together and laughing. “Andre…
Read MoreJJ Redick 21 Points Full Highlights (11/25/2012)
I don’t even need to write a description, everything you need to know is in the title of the video. I’m gonna go have a cheesesteak.
Read MoreLeandro Barbosa 15 Points Full Highlights (11/25/2012)
There is an extremely long list of players who owe their careers to Steve Nash. If you peruse a copy of said list, you will find Leandro Barbosa nestled in nicely between Raja Bell and Lou Amundson. After leaving Phoenix he has become a low-efficiency chucker (compared to the high-efficiency chucker he was before). As…
Read MoreThaddeus Young 29 Points/15 Rebounds Full Highlights (11/24/2012)
Thaddeus “The Mad Thadder” Young goes off against the Thunder, putting in 29 points on every kind of shot imaginable. This feat is all the more impressive considering that Young ate four Philly cheesesteaks before the game and had really greasy hands. It’s not in the video, but in the second quarter you could see…
Read MoreEvan Turner 26 Points Full Highlights (11/24/2012)
Evan Turner is a bust. Sure, he can score a bit, maybe pass the ball a bit, but the truth remains that he was the second overall pick. You don’t want a role-player with the second overall. He should take a good hard look at himself in the mirror and say: “I am a lottery…
Read MoreOmri Casspi 15 Points Full Highlights (11/24/2012)
Omri Casspi mistakes the members of the Miami Heat for an Islamic terrorist organization and drops 4 bombs in a rain of fire and anguish. I hope that wasn’t too offensive? Here, let’s try again: Omri Casspi makes all 4 of his three pointers in an attempt to prove to Cavaliers fans that he can…
Read MoreRyan Anderson Career High 34 Points/8 Threes Full Highlights (11/23/2012)
The Hornets can’t catch a break, having lost two overtime games in a row. They are squandering Ryan Anderson’s clutchitude. Their gameplan is now “dump it off to Ryan Anderson, who cares if there’s three guys in his face, he’ll just step back on pop treys”. I’ve seen their diagrams in timeout. They don’t even…
