Khris Middleton Career High 30 Points Full Highlights (3/11/2015)

I’m usually a bit of a homer when it comes to Bucks players, but even I didn’t expect Khris “Khash Money” Middleton to be this good this year. He’s not even doing anything differently than last year, just taking and making more shots, while playing his usual brand of versatile defense. Here’s a bit of…

Aaron Brooks 31 Points Full Highlights (3/11/2015)

Aaron Brooks = Derrick Rose with knees/heart? Think about it.

Isaiah Canaan 20 Points Full Highlights (3/11/2015)

Maybe I’m seeing things, but does Isaiah Canaan sort of look a little fat right now maybe? It might not make a huge difference, given the recent success of fatties like Kyle Lowry and Jared Sullinger, but I’m just wondering. Am I being too critical or is he actually maybe kinda tubby in this video?…

Corey Brewer 23 Points Full Highlights (3/11/2015)

Seventeen points in four minutes? Is that some kind of record? It might be if you forget about T-Mac scoring thirteen in 33 seconds. But this isn’t T-Mac we’re talking about. This is noted crack monster and perennial MEP (Most Emaciated Player) winner Corey Brewer. This is a guy who can score sometimes, but is…

Ish Smith Career High 23 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (3/11/2015)

Both Kevin Durant and DeMarcus Cousins have called Ish Smith the fastest player in the league. Eager for some sweet tidbits like those, I interviewed a few NBA players to get their own thoughts on Ishy Azalea. John Wall: “I’m faster.” Jerami Grant: “He gave me some tips for pleasing my girl. A true homie…

Anthony Morrow 26 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (3/11/2015)

Anthony Morrow was supposed to be the savior of the Thunder while all their actual good players were injured. Not the kind of savior who wins games for his team, but the kind that scores a bunch of points to keep the fans happy. I guess I was expecting too much. He was pretty good…

Justin Hamilton Career High 15 Points Full Highlights (3/11/2015)

How hyped would you be, on a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being “not hyped at all”, 10 being “hyper hyped”, if LeBron James scored 15 points? How hyped would you be, on the same scale, if Justin Hamilton scored the same amount of points? Compare the answers to these two questions. The hype…

T.J. Warren Career High 17 Points Full Highlights (3/11/2015)

“17 points for TJ Warren?” you exclaim as you review your YouTube feed. “I can’t believe it! I thought that guy was buried in Phoenix forever! I must witness the highlights of this performance for myself.” You click the video, and begin to watch, eyes wide with excitement. “I just know this is going to…

Chris Andersen Career High 18 Points Full Highlights (3/11/2015)

Chris Andersen is 36 years old, in his 13th NBA season. I’ll be the first to say it: that ish cray. How does a role player (an ECCENTRIC role player, no less) like him stick around for so long? Is it because of his defense? Not out of the question, though how good could a…

Ben McLemore 27 Points Full Highlights (3/11/2015)

Ben “Easy Mac” McLemore is the same player he was his rookie year. Just way better. Well, maybe not “way” better. He’s improved, definitely, though he’s still not as good as he can probably be. It just goes to show, even the biggest bustiest scrubbiest rookie can turn things part-way around just by the natural…
