Brandon Knight is a polarizing character in basketball circles. Is he as good as his numbers indicate, or is he as bad as his on-court play appears to the human eye? That sounds like a hard question that I don’t really feel like answering right now, so I’m just going to post Piston fan reactions…

Danny Green 21 Points/5 Threes Full Highlights (11/22/2014)
Danny “Greenger” Green is pretty much the ultimate role-player. He’s getting paid just four million bucks (“just”), a small amount for an elite floor-spacer. Any team would want him. I want him. Not just for the Bucks, I want him to live with me and he can teach me how to shoot threes. We could…
Read MoreBrandan Wright 12 Points/4 Dunks/3 Blocks Full Highlights (11/22/2014)
Brandan Wright reclined lazily on his golden throne, a throne which rose above everything else in the hall. It glowed with an inner light, lending Brandan a halo that made him look almost angelic. A jewel-studded crown was perched on his head, and in his hand, he wielded a scepter on top of which was…
Read MorePatrick Beverley 20 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (11/22/2014)
“Hey Patrick, it was really nice of you to invite me over,” said Francisco Garcia, standing at the front door to Patrick’s apartment. “It’s nothing. I just, figure, you know, we’re teammates, we should hang out sometimes. For chemistry, or whatever,” Patrick responded. “Watch out for Woofers, he really likes licking strangers.” As they entered…
Read MoreTrey Burke 20 Points Full Highlights (11/22/2014)
Trey “Treyburkulosis” Burke is causing consternation among Jazz fans because of some perceived deficiencies in his game. Namely, that he can’t even shoot 35 percent this year. I don’t know what the big deal is. He shot 38 percent last year, and it’s not like he was going to magically get better at shooting over…
Read MoreRobert Covington 14 Points Full Highlights (11/22/2014)
Man, I can’t believe I get to do Robert Covington highlights. I was just waiting for him to beast out with the Rockets, and it never happened. He was beasting out in the D-League, sure, but it’s not the same. After he got let go by Houston I thought the dream was over, and Covington…
Read MoreBen McLemore 22 Points/3 Dunks Full Highlights (11/22/2014)
Ben McLemore was taking a pleasant stroll through an especially blighted section of Sacramento. It was late at night, and he knew this particular neighborhood wasn’t exactly safe, but he liked the atmosphere. The golden-yellow street lights, the abandoned buildings, the run-down infrastructure, it was a soothing remembrance of his past. It was also totally…
Read MoreMirza Teletovic 22 Points Full Highlights (11/22/2014)
The Nets are broken again. Only one offseason removed from advancing to the second round of the playoffs, they look like the same old Nets as before. I blame, in descending order: Jason Kidd, Brook Lopez, Deron Williams, and Jerome Jordan. Notice the absence of Mirza Teletovic in that list. That’s because he’s been pretty…
Read MoreNerlens Noel 17 Points Full Highlights (11/22/2014)
The 76ers are going to be hard pressed to win 5 games this year. They had a decent (meaning 10% or so) chance at victory tonight against the horrible Knicks, and they only managed to lose by 8. That’s pretty good, imagine a few extra shots dropping and they’d be celebrating like it’s game 7….
