Has Jordan Crawford finally turned the corner? There was a period of time when he was one of the worst players in the league, but this year…he might actually be above average. All the difficult, ill-advised shots he takes are going in this year. As much as I would enjoy tearing him a new one,…

Michael Beasley 23 Points Full Highlights (12/3/2013)
Someone needs to tell Michael Beasley that his journey to redemption won’t be complete until he grows back that awesome fro. It’s like I’m watching a whole different player, except that he still takes the same dumb shots he always has. I’m not entirely convinced that Beasley’s shooting won’t regress back to his mean. But…
Read MoreIsaiah Thomas 24 Points Full Highlights (12/3/2013)
Isaiah Thomas looked up to the giants towering over him in fear. They were talking about him. “I wonder where Isaiah got off to?” asked giant-DeMarcus to his giant teammates. “He’ll probably want to join us for our night on the town.” Giant-Greivis laughed derisively. “That little midget? Who would want to be seen with…
Read MoreJeremy Lamb 14 Points Full Highlights (12/3/2013)
Am I the only one who thinks it would be totally rad for the Thunder arena people to play “Mary had a Little Lamb” every time Jeremy Lamb makes a shot? I am? Screw you guys then, I will maintain until my dying breath that that is an awesome idea. I mean, the Portland dudes…
Read MoreJon Leuer Career High 23 Points Full Highlights (12/3/2013)
Pop quiz time: Which promising rookie did the Bucks trade for a rental of a crappy veteran? If you answered Tobias Harris, I don’t blame you, it’s my fault for wording the question ambiguously. But the real answer is Jon Leuer, who was traded as part of a package for Sam Dalembert. The pain never…
Read MoreGordon Hayward 29 Points Full Highlights (12/2/2013)
My source within the Hayward family has again furnished me with a copy of Gordon’s christmas wish list, which is presented here in its entirety. 24 pack of Monster energy drink Logitech G19s USB Gaming Keyboard with adjustable color GamePanel LCD and custom color backlighting Spalding NeverFlat basketball – mine went flat Hot Pockets –…
Read MoreMike Dunleavy 23 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (12/2/2013)
Mike Dunleavy, in the least combative manner possible, walked up to teammate Taj Gibson after the game. He began awkwardly, “Listen, Taj, Booz just gave me the rundown on the whole situation. If I had known you were in the game, I definitely would never have porked Caroline.” Giving him a dirty look, Taj responded,…
Read MoreMaurice Harkless 16 Points Full Highlights (12/2/2013)
There was a ton of hype last year about Mo Harkless. He was gonna be part of the new young core that the Magic had. All-Star potential? Of course. That second part seems kind of weird now, but the first part is happening I guess. But with each year that passes, the Magic get further…
Read MoreAlec Burks 21 Points/2 Dunks Full Highlights (12/2/2013)
Now that Alec Burks and Trey Burke are on the same team, we obviously need to come up with a nickname for this tandem. However, since they aren’t yet known for any particular skill (dunking, shooting threes, blocking shots), the only thing we have to go by is their similar names. Here is my list…
Read MoreRyan Anderson Career High 36 Points/7 Threes Full Highlights (12/2/2013)
Ryan Anderson is a maniac. A total maniac. This is evidenced by the fact that he’s taken 126 shots while only accumulating 3 assists. Any other player in the league does that, they would get crucified. Literally crucified. NBA fans are dedicated. But Anderson gets a pass because his shooting is otherworldly right now. When…
