Giannis Antetokounmpo 20 Points/3 Dunks Full Highlights (12/13/2014)

Giannis screamed. Lying, shivering, in the snowbank, he had no energy left to resist. The hooded figure approached him silently, no face visible beneath a robe made of some dark material, blacker than the deepest black. Once the apparition had reached where Giannis lay, he raised his hand in a beckon to be silent. “Don’t…

Bojan Bogdanovic 12 Points/4 Threes Full Highlights (12/13/2014)

I’m going to try out something new for those who don’t have the time to watch highlight videos: text descriptions of the events contained within! Let’s see how it turns out. Who knows, maybe I’ll start doing this in lieu of the time-consuming videos. Jarrett Jack passes it out to Alan Anderson on the wing,…

Michael Carter-Williams Triple Double 15 Pts/11 Asts/11 Rebs Full Highlights (12/13/2014)

I sometimes feel like Michael Carter-Williams gets too much flak. Yeah, he’s not perfect, he isn’t a great shooter and turns it over too much, but look at his team. There isn’t a player in the league whose stats wouldn’t be negatively affected by this tank brigade. I think this is a fair criticism of…

C.J. Watson 23 Points Full Highlights (12/13/2014)

The carousel of suck that is the Indiana Pacers season spins ever toward annihilation with the addition of CJ Watson into the starting lineup. Is Donald Sloan not good enough anymore? Because I thought that he played fairly well, admittedly my highlight-maker’s perspective might be distorted. I don’t remember much about CJ anymore. It’s been…

Hollis Thompson 21 Points/5 Threes Full Highlights (12/12/2014)

It’s too bad that the 76ers couldn’t pull off the upset tonight. I thought that this one was impossible to give away. But the 76ers are a bad team, and they did what bad teams often do: lose games in horrific ways. The good news: if Hollis Thompson had missed one of his free throws…

Donatas Motiejunas Career High 25 Points Full Highlights (12/13/2014)

I should just stop being surprised by anything that Donatas Motiejunas does anymore. I really thought, that with Dwight coming back, that he would not put up the same excellent numbers he had been. I especially didn’t think that he would improve upon those numbers. But he did! Is there nothing that this guy can’t…

Robert Covington 20 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (12/12/2014)

For all the aimless signings and call-ups that the 76ers are doing, they actually found a useful guy in Robert Covington. That’s exactly why, when you suck, you need to be ready to let go of players in order to give somebody else a chance to prove themselves. If fifty different players suit up for…

Victor Oladipo 21 Points Full Highlights (12/12/2014)

You know who’s holding Victor Oladipo down? Evan Fournier. Victor is trying so desperately to raise himself to an All-Star caliber player, and Evan Fournier has chained him to the floor, his disgusting face curled up into a sneer. The Magic should never have traded for such a greasy-haired ballhog chucker. It’s like they don’t…

Evan Fournier 18 Points Full Highlights (12/12/2014)

Many weeks have passed without the cleansing light of the sun. Dark clouds roil overhead. The carrion birds circle. The terrible prophecy that the elders relayed to us is coming to pass. Evan Fournier isn’t doing as good with Victor Oladipo back in the lineup, just as the wise ones foretold. I was just sort…

Cory Joseph 16 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (12/12/2014)

For a point guard, Cory Joseph has shot very well from the field each of the past three seasons. Part of it is probably due to the effective offensive sets that the Spurs run, but probably more of it has to do with Cory Joseph actually being a superb backup point guard. Or… The Spurs…
