Forget about Nate Wolters. He is old hat. The rookie you should really be excited about is Tony Mitchell. No, not that Tony Mitchell. The other one. The Bucks one. The D-League dunk champion. Because he just threw down a sick poster dunk on Gorgui Dieng. The pass by Wolters was nice. But the dunk…

JJ Barea 19 Points Full Highlights (3/11/2014)
I like to use my expert internet-browsing skills to gauge the general opinion of a player on social media, in order to paint a more complete picture of him in these descriptions. People don’t really like JJ Barea. I think this is because Puerto Ricans on the whole are underrepresented on social media compared to…

The therapist, too, was a stereotype; a man with a full head of gray…

Remind me again why people are excited about Andrew Bynum? Yeah, I know he was a great player once upon a time, before his knees got taken to Pennsylvania and were magically transmuted into Philly cheesesteaks. But this guy straight-up quit on the last team he was on. Just absolutely quit and said he had…
