Craziest stat of the year: Josh McRoberts is third in assist-to-turnover ratio, after Chris Paul and Jose Calderon. The next 18 players on the list are all point guards. He’s like LeBron without the turnovers. I don’t even know. He didn’t show above-average playmaking ability at any point in his career up until now. And…

Al Jefferson 30 Points/16 Rebounds Full Highlights (1/17/2014)
Al Jefferson is a top-five offensive center of the past decade. There. I said it. It’s out there in the open for you to accept or reject, but if you choose to reject it, you would be incorrect. Just looking at pure offensive skill, and ignoring the opposite side of the floor, there aren’t many…

“Hey, rook, we got a few questions for you.” It was Vince Carter and Sam Dalembert. Shane answered warily, “Yeah, sure. But this isn’t going to end with me dancing the Macarena naked in the shower with everybody filming me, is it? I still remember when you made Gal ask strangers on the street for…

“Olynyk looks like he’s playing in the Summer League” Oh yes, the NBA Summer League. Where NBA-starved fans gaze hungrily upon the new crop of rookies for the first time.
