Troy Daniels is supposed to be one of the feel-good stories of the playoffs. I’m sure everybody else looks at what he’s accomplished in his short stint in the NBA and says, “Wow, good for him.” But I look at his clutch play and deadeye three-point shooting and I don’t even feel anything. Not a…

Chandler Parsons 26 Points Full Highlights (4/27/2014)
Jeremy and Chandler entered Jeremy’s bedroom with urgency. Chandler was surprised at how…romantic it was. The lighting was soft and low, the bed layered with sheets of varying shades of red. The two teammates sat down on the bed together. “Let’s take these off,” Jeremy whispered, pointing at his shorts. Chandler eagerly followed Jeremy’s lead…
Read MoreTiago Splitter 14 Points Full Highlights (4/26/2014)
It is a well-known fact that nobody knows what ethnicity Manu Ginobili is. But what about his teammate Tiago Splitter? Splitter is allegedly from Brazil, which would make him Mexican. However, he definitely looks European. He also has a similar skin tone to Ginobili, who is Argentine but is otherwise of indeterminate racial background. So…
Read MoreChris Douglas-Roberts 17 Points Full Highlights (4/26/2014)
Is anyone watching this series anymore? Was anyone watching it ever? Heat fans must be bored of this whole playoff thing by now. Bobcats fans are assuredly just waiting for this season to end so they can be the Hornets again. And with all the other great playoff series going on this one is just…
Read MoreJose Calderon 16 Points/9 Assists Full Highlights (4/26/2014)
The mood at the Dallas-area Chipotle was jubilant. “…and then it went straight in! Like it was no big deal! Ha ha ha, WOOOOOO!” Shawn Marion was retelling the story of Vince Cater’s game winning shot earlier that afternoon against the Spurs. Ignoring, of course, that the shot was the whole reason they were there…

Read MorePatrick Patterson 17 Points Full Highlights (4/25/2014)
It’s a good thing that DownToBuck isn’t in the business of making lowlights instead of highlights, cause then this video would only be a few seconds long. And who wants to see a pair of missed free throws anyway? Even if they are at the end of the game with the player’s team down by…
Read MoreDeMarre Carroll 18 Points Full Highlights (4/24/2014)
I don’t even know what’s going on with the Pacers now. Superstar Paul George getting outplayed by DeMarre frickin’ Carroll? They could still easily win the series, but the Hawks have shown their weakness. That being: play basketball and eventually they will get all mopey and stop moving the ball. DeMarre Carroll has been the…
Read MoreTony Allen 16 Points Full Highlights (4/24/2014)
Good thing the Grizzlies won this game, because if they hadn’t, I fully believe that Tony Allen would be dead now, ambushed by a mob of enraged Grizzlies fans. Not only did he commit a stupid shooting foul on Westbrook to allow a four-point play at the end of regulation, he fouled at the end…
Read MoreKyle Korver 20 Points/4 Threes Full Highlights (4/24/2014)
The NBA and its assorted commentators have a strange fascination with arbitrary records. “Colonel McDickles is the first player to score 22 or more points while shooting 60% from the field in the first quarter of consecutive road games in the history of the NBA! Isn’t that a sweet and totally notable achievement?” I actually…
