The Knicks are really bad again this year. This keeps happening. I’ve been trying to pinpoint some of the reason’s that they are consistently disappointing even their pessimistic fanbase: – They are the Knicks – Shane Larkin is no Jose Calderon – Carmelo is always thinking about playing with Derrick Rose – Dalembert is not…

Brandon Bass 23 Points Full Highlights (11/19/2014)
There are a lot of odd stats in the NBA. I think that’s the whole reason they play the game; to accumulate numbers for analysis. One of the odder stats is the one for active career playoff free-throw percentage. Who do you think would be the leader? Maybe Steve Nash, yeah, he’s pretty good at…
Read MoreSebastian Telfair 18 Points Full Highlights (11/19/2014)
Sebastian Telfair was staring, again, at the framed magazine cover he carried with him everywhere. “The Takeover” He thought back to all his friends and admirers back at Lincoln High School. He had the world’s gaze, then. Crossover after deft crossover, pass after dazzling pass, skills honed on the hard streets of New York. “Sebastian…
Read MoreBradley Beal 21 Points/1 Return Full Highlights (11/19/2014)
Computer Consciousness #138A1-581-BB, known to himself as “Bradley Beal”, relaxed in his server cluster. It had been a long day calculating star trajectories for each of the approximately sixty-eight quadrillion such bodies in the observed universe. The task was tedious, but the end result was vital to the goals of the Exouniversal Exploration Consortium, as…
Read MoreTim Hardaway Jr. 24 Points Full Highlights (11/18/2014)
I don’t even know what a “KnicksTape” is, but whenever I post highlights of a player who’s on the New York Knicks, I get multiple comments merely saying “#knickstape” or a normal comment followed by the same hashtag. Even if the video was something like “Tim Hardaway Junior Gets Blown By 11 times Full Highlights”…
Read MoreRyan Anderson 22 Points Full Highlights (11/18/2014)
Ryan Anderson ran. He had to get out of here. They would find the carnage he had created any time now, and they would know who had done it. He stumbled through the once-familiar practice facility, which had now become a maze of torment. Each corner brought the dread of confronting more of the Pelicans…
Read MoreJabari Parker 12 Points Full Highlights (11/18/2014)
Jason Kidd must be teaching rookie Jabari Parker a lesson: if you can’t play defense then you’re not going to play near the end of games. It’s a good lesson, I guess, unless you’re the kind of person who just wants to see Jabari score a ton of points. Count me as one of those…
Read MoreErsan Ilyasova 20 Points Full Highlights (11/18/2014)
For being the physical manifestation of my YouTube channel, Ersan Ilyasova hasn’t been playing very well at all. I chose this avatar when he was coming off a strong season where he was second in voting for Most Improved. He was good that year, but I think the toll of having his soul slowly siphoned…
Read MoreOmri Casspi 13 Points Full Highlights (11/18/2014)
There are a lot of things going on in Israel right now (other than basketball). I’m pretty sure that’s where rival highlight maker Dawk Ins lives, so he keeps the place busy. Palestinians, as always, are a point of contention, as is Israel’s right to statehood. The are arguments from both sides on whether Israel…
Read MoreJeremy Lamb 19 Points Full Highlights (11/18/2014)
Steven Adams was busy twanging on his bass, clad in a neon-blue bodysuit, with a teaseled wig on his head. Kendrick Perkins lay slumped over his drum kit, fast asleep. They were waiting for Jeremy Lamb so they could begin practice, and he was never late. Just as Steven was packing up his equipment to…
