That’s two eighteen point games in a row for The Big Baynger. It is time for Australians to forget about Matthew Dellavedova. That guy sucks now. You can also forget about Dante Exum and Joe Ingles. Those guys blow. Andrew Bogut = lame. Australians should direct all of their nationalistic enthusiasm towards the new face…

O.J. Mayo 24 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (4/3/2015)
The hype that O.J. Mayo had coming out of high school is officially over. Over. OFFICIALLY. He regained some of it during his kinda-promising stint in Dallas, but Milwaukee has sapped all the hype out of him and replaced it with body fat. Now he’s just a guy who can score in bunches, sometimes, but…
Read MoreJonas Jerebko 17 Points Full Highlights (4/3/2015)
It is not well-known in basketball circles that Jonas Jerebko, before becoming a world-famous basketball player, was a prominent local musician in his hometown of Kinna, Sweden. Playing guitar for the band Gorbath, he joined up with local powerhouse drummer Fredrik Bergqvist to create a pummeling assault that reached back to the country’s old-school roots…
Read MoreEnes Kanter 24 Points Full Highlights (4/3/2015)
Enes Kanter couldn’t help it. He was crying again. These tears, like those preceding them, were shed in memory of Jesseca, the cheerleader that Enes had left behind in Utah. The droplets, each one filled with more emotion than one man could possibly hold inside, splashed onto the piece of fancy stationery which lay in…
Read MoreThaddeus Young 29 Points Full Highlights (4/3/2015)
Thaddeus “The Mad Thadder” Young has benefited greatly from his recent change of scenery. It turns out that he’s not really suited to be a first option on a team, as was discovered both in his last year in Philly and his short stint in Minnesota. Playing with legit good players, the kind of players…
Read MoreJonas Valanciunas 21 Points Full Highlights (4/3/2015)
Jonas Valanciunas stared at his TV in confusion. A smorgasbord of snacks lay forgotten on the coffee table in front of him; tortilla chips, buffalo wings, and mini red velvet muffins alike went uneaten as the large Lithuanian struggled to comprehend the onscreen action. His fifty-inch plasma TV displayed a scene of utter chaos as…
Read MoreDanny Green 21 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (4/3/2015)
Danny Green is a nice player. Hits threes, plays defense, knows his role. A vital part of what the Spurs have going on right now. No complaints to be made against him, unless maybe you want him to be more aggressive or something. However, how much more radical would San Antonio be if they had…
Read MoreTobias Harris 25 Points Full Highlights (4/3/2015)
Tobias Harris, like his teammate Nikola Vucevic, has become something of a forgotten man in Orlando. In a fair and just world, people would be excited if there was a young player averaging 17 points per game on an up-and-coming team. Am I wrong here? Is there a huge throng composed of a perfect cross-section…
Read MoreOmri Casspi 17 Points Full Highlights (4/3/2015)
With Sim Bhullar being signed to a 10-day by the Kings, thus becoming a teammate of Omri Casspi, I thought now would be the good time to examine the relationship between India and Israel. And then I thought, “Am I really crazy enough to write anything even tangentially relating to Israeli politics?”, and I responded…
