James Johnson has become my all-time favorite player. There is no NBA player, past or present, who can sniff the jock of my new lord and savior James Johnson. This may seem odd to you, but I can assure you that I am of rational mind and that my reasoning is perfectly sound. Such reasoning…

Kawhi Leonard Career High 26 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (4/6/2014)
A travesty is being perpetrated that has gone unnoticed. NBA fans across the world are being robbed of what is rightfully theirs. We don’t get to see how good Kawhi Leonard would be if he weren’t on a team with so many good players. I want to know how much more above 20 points he…
Read MoreAustin Rivers 14 Points Full Highlights (4/6/2014)
Austin Rivers has shown decent improvement after his disastrous rookie campaign. This is good. It’s expected that a rookie will improve, but for someone who played as Rivers did last year it’s not a given. He’s still not very good at all, and New Orleans picking him at 10 is still a glaring mistake. His…
Read MoreTrey Burke 24 Points/15 Assists Full Highlights (4/6/2014)
Trey Burke has had about the kind of season I expected after his Summer League performance. Surprise, I know. He is a good player but is tasked with doing too much on his awful Jazz team, so his percentages are Jennings-esque. On the upside, he is tasked with doing too much on his awful Jazz…
Read MoreManu Ginobili 26 Points Full Highlights (4/6/2014)
Have we forgiven Manu Ginobili for his 8-turnover crapfest in game 6 of the finals last year? Remember, he probably cost Tim Duncan a championship with those turnovers. Can you really forgive him when he basically walked up to Timmy and snatched a ring from off his hand? It’s cool. I forgive him too. Everyone…
Read MoreJordan Hill 22 Points Full Highlights (4/6/2014)
While making these highlights, all I could think about was “what happened to Jordan Hill’s hair?” It’s like he tried to turn his dreads into one of those “fancy” hairstyles, but he didn’t have a mirror or another person to help him so he just kind of piled and twisted his hair in every direction….
Read MoreQuincy Miller Career High 19 Points/4 Blocks Full Highlights (4/6/2014)
Chris Marlowe, Denver Nuggets commentator, woke up disoriented. He was in a cell-like room, tied to a chair. A bare fluorescent tube provided blinding light that yielded no shadows. He looked down and noticed that a hastily-applied blindfold had slipped off his eyes, down around his neck, where it hung like a noose. His head…
Read MoreKlay Thompson 33 Points/7 Threes Full Highlights (4/6/2014)
Klay Thompson got his 33 points in only three quarters of action. It stands to reason, then, that he would have gotten forty if he had been left in for at least part of the fourth quarter. I’m calling you out, Mark Jackson. People want forty-point games. If you think you can just take your…
Read MoreEvan Fournier 26 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (4/6/2014)
Evan Fournier reclined in his posh leather couch, enjoying a glass of the finest French Chardonnay. Just as he was about to put on his favorite recording of Debussy’s ‘Clair de Lune’, he was interrupted by his phone ringing. “This is the Fournicator.” “Is that what you call yourself now? It’s Jan.” Evan tensed up….
Read MorePero Antic Career High 18 Points Full Highlights (4/6/2014)
What’s up with the Pacers? They’ve been looking like total crap lately. Playing like it too. (Zing!). The Hawks aren’t any good really and they still totally destroyed those losers. I blame Paul George for not being a superstar like everyone told me he was. I also blame Pero Antic, who scored 16 on them…
