Maurice Harkless is not really the kind of guy you want hanging around the perimeter. I read somewhere that he’s shooting like 25% or something on jumpers this year. But, then again, what are you supposed to do when confronted with a wide open jump shot? Not shoot it? Because that’s stupid. There’s no guarantee…

Fleet as the mightiest river Shining as the brightest silver A moonrise upon silver dew A lover’s kiss, so true The steadfast oak stands never taller Than him, the valiant baller Radiant as the eternal sun He is Shaun Livingston
Read MoreWill Bynum 23 Points Full Highlights (3/16/2013)
Will “Not Andrew” Bynum is pretty good for a little guy. In these highlights you see him do all kinds of crazy stuff to get himself open for shots. Bynum is not content to get assisted on open jumpers; he would rather beat you off the dribble and foray fearlessly into the land of the…
Read MoreWayne Ellington 21 Points Full Highlights (3/16/2013)
Apparently Wayne Ellington won the NCAA National Championship while he was at North Carolina. I wouldn’t know because college basketball sucks. But what sucks worse is that Ellington was used to winning, yet his whole career (minus half a season with the Grizz) has been on losing teams. The worst, though, is getting traded with…

Do you know those arbitrary records that sports broadcasters like to pull out from time to time to illustrate how good a player is doing? I hate those. I’m bringing it up because the Wizards’ commentators wouldn’t shut up about Martell’s chance at glory. He now holds the Wizards record for most consecutive games with…

Read MoreJannero Pargo 18 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (3/16/2013)
Jannero Pargo has bounced around the league so much that it’s impossible to keep track of him. It doesn’t help that his brother, Jeremy, has a similar tendency to play for half the teams in the league. It’s nuts. So now he plays for the Bobcats. That might come as a surprise to many people….
Read MoreCarlos Boozer 21 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (3/15/2013)
It is my impression that Bulls fans aren’t very happy with Carlos Boozer’s play their team. But you take a look at his stats and think “Wow what are they complaining about, the Booze Cruise is putting up really nice numbers!”. But stats don’t tell the whole story. The story that goes something like this:…
Read MoreKent Bazemore 14 Points Full Highlights (3/15/3013)
Imagine this: a big meatball sub, overflowing with bright red marinara sauce thick with tomato chunks. Divinely melted mozzarella cheese draped over the whole thing, bonded to the bakery-fresh white roll and semi-transparent. Authentic, fresh-out-of-the-garden Italian spices decorate the creation like confetti – basil, oregano, maybe some rosemary. Artfully prepared orbs of pure beef are…
