So, apparently, Khris Middleton is a starter-quality player in the NBA. Well, yes and no. How the Bucks define “starter-quality” and how the rest of the league defines the term are two very different things. Bucks: Starter-quality. Adjective. A human being, at least six feet tall, who is capable of sustained periods of running and…

Marcus Thornton 24 Points Full Highlights (11/13/2013)
“Marcus, do you ever feel like maybe your conditioning isn’t at the point where it should be?” coach Malone asked. Marcus grabbed hold of a handful of nacho chips, dunked his fist fully into a container of cheese sauce, and crammed the entirety of his fist in his mouth. Chewing noisily, he managed a garbled,…
Read MoreGreivis Vasquez 17 Points/12 Assists Full Highlights (11/13/2013)
One of the weirdest statistics of last year was that Greivis Vasquez lead the league in total assists. Injuries to the elite point guards helped his cause, but still. It’s like that year Jerry Stackhouse lead the league in points; he was a good player, but would anybody put him in the top tier of…
Read MoreTim Hardaway Jr. 14 Points Full Highlights (11/13/2013)
I’m gonna be honest here, I don’t really know a whole lot about Tim Hardaway Jr. I know his dad was a pretty good point guard in the 90’s. I think he may have gone to Michigan. Or Michigan State. I get the two confused sometimes. He can definitely dunk. And shoot threes. Those are…

“Hey T-Mo, great game tonight man! You’re really repping the homeland!” Timofey jumped. He thought he had been alone in the locker room. Hurriedly closing the laptop screen, he turned around to find Evan Fournier. “Thanks Evan. Proud glory of Rus’ flow through my veins like strong river, I guess. Haha,” Timofey said. “What were…
Read MoreCorey Brewer 27 Points Full Highlights (11/13/2013)
I was surprised when the Timberwolves signed Corey Brewer this summer. They drafted him, he sucked, so they got rid of him. Then he had an okay year in Denver and all of a sudden they want him back? He looks and plays like he’s strung out on coke. He’s supposed to be a good…

James Anderson just scored 36 points. James Anderson. 36 Points. Why did the Rockets waive this guy again?
