Here we are again. J.J. Hickson is starting at center for yet another team, despite being pretty much a perfect power forward. He has everything you want out of that position: midrange game, rebounding, and the ability to work on the block. At 6’9, he is also extremely undersized. Meanwhile, the Nuggets’ actual starter at…

Glen Davis 19 Points Full Highlights (1/13/2014)
Glen Davis has stated previously that he doesn’t even like the “Big Baby” nickname. So why does everyone still call him that? It’s one of the most used nicknames in the league.

I was not really expecting to do Leandro Barbosa highlights this year. Banished to the hinterlands of Brazil, I figured him to be gone from the NBA for good. But the Suns apparently wanted to bring back good memories from the past in replacing Eric Bledsoe. I must say, Leandro looks pretty good attacking the…

Brandon Knight walked serenely through the snow-covered fields of southeastern Wisconsin. What better way to spend an off day than in rural, idyllic beauty? No hangers-on to bother him out here. Just him and nature. “Help me! Help me!” Brandon Knight snapped out of his reverie at the sound of someone yelling. Curious, he walked…
