Eric Bledsoe looked at his teammate skeptically. “You sure this thing’s safe? I don’t want to get blown up or nothing.” The contraption in Gerald Green’s hands certainly didn’t exude safety; it was basically a ball of wires and circuit boards, with a few analog radio knobs on the side. “I told you already Eric,…

Al Jefferson 26 Points Full Highlights (12/23/2013)
The Bobcats were pretty much the only suitors for not-so-coveted free agent Al Jefferson last offseason. There’s a reason no one really wanted him; he is a black hole who doesn’t play defense. But the Bobcats felt that he was the missing piece to their playoff puzzle and signed him to a fairly ridiculous deal….
Read MoreMiles Plumlee 17 Points/20 Rebounds Full Highlights (12/23/2013)
It’s obvious that the Pacers didn’t know what they had when they included Miles Plumlee as a throw-in on the Luis Scola deal. Which calls into question the quality of their coaching staff and talent evaluators. It wouldn’t be hard to beat out Ian Mahinmi or whoever for backup center minutes, and if he couldn’t…
Read MoreArron Afflalo 26 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (12/23/2013)
I’m going to say something that may shock and offend you. If you are of weak constitution, please look away now. I think Arron Afflalo should be an all-star this year. Yes, I said it. He’s putting up some fantastic numbers on good percentages. And in today’s NBA, all you need to do to get…
Read MoreTerrence Ross 23 Points Full Highlights (12/23/2013)
Poor Rudy Gay. Every team he leaves gets better with him not there. That’s gotta be hard on his self-esteem. Watching your former teammates enjoy (relative) success without you. One of the players who will probably benefit from his absence is Terrence Ross. There’s a lot more shots to go around now, and Ross has…
Read MoreLuigi Datome 13 Points Full Highlights (12/23/2013)
Another blowout for the Pistons, you know what that means! Minutes for Gigi! Though he actually did manage to get in the game during the first quarter tonight. We’re making progress! He’s still having trouble finding his three point range, but as I said before that will come with time. I still don’t get why…
Read MorePaul Millsap 25 Points/7 Threes Full Highlights (12/23/2013)
Free will is an illusion. How can we possibly have the ability to make choices when we live in a totally deterministic universe? The world we live in is bound totally by the laws of physics, laws which are currently being codified. It is not unreasonable to think that, in the future, we will able…
Read MoreGiannis Antetokounmpo 14 Points/2 Dunks Full Highlights (12/23/2013)
Giannis awoke to a pounding headache. Realizing that he was lying on some kind of hard surface, he kept his eyes closed, knowing that wherever he was, it wasn’t good. He cast his mind back in time, attempting to remember the last thing his waking body had done. The details were fuzzy: Caron cajoling him…
