DeMarre Carroll 21 Points Full Highlights (10/30/2015)

Mark Bartelstein answered the phone call with anticipation. If the Raptors were calling him, that meant they were interested in his client, DeMarre Carroll. He had his bargaining tactics pre-planned. If they proposed a lowball offer, Mark would trot out the advanced stats, the personal stories that exemplified DeMarre’s high character, and some fabricated offers…

Kent Bazemore 19 Points Full Highlights (10/30/2015)

Kent “Bazed God” Bazemore being the starter for the Hawks probably means that the Hawks won’t be as good as last year. It also means that I get to make more Baze videos. So, it’s a win for me I guess, but a loss for Hawks fans. In time we will see if Baze can…

Evan Fournier 22 Points Full Highlights (10/30/2015)

Evan Fournier relaxed in his recamier, the thoughtful and provocative sounds of Maurice Ravel’s Daphnis et Chloé echoing off the damasked walls. The architect had laughed when Evan had expressed a desire to recreate a French villa in the middle of an Orlando subdivision, but who was laughing now? Evan’s dinner parties were a hit…

Jordan Clarkson 22 Points Full Highlights (10/30/2015)

Sitting at his kitchen table, Jordan Clarkson stared at the pile of unopened fan mail. “Honey, I know you always tell me that I should be grateful for my fans, but this is ridiculous.” Jordan’s girlfriend, who was busy making omelets, responded, “I do tell you that, but that doesn’t mean you have to open…

Nikola Vucevic 26 Points/5 Blocks Full Highlights (10/30/2015)

This video was supposed to be a lot sicker than it is. Vucci Mane was 9/9 in the first half, but only made ONE more field goal in entire second half PLUS two overtimes. I know that teams make defensive adjustments at halftime, and that the Thunder probably didn’t want to get embarrassed anymore, but…

D’Angelo Russell 13 Points Full Highlights (10/30/2015)

This is fine. 13 points in 23 minutes? No need to panic at all right now. D’Angelo Russell will be fine. Absolutely. Just fine. He would be a little finer if he didn’t have to share the ball with the chucker’s row of Bryant, Williams (That signing baffles me continuously. Did they not watch him…

T.J. Warren 17 Points Full Highlights (10/30/2015)

Sorry Suns fans. All that promise you had, when you surprisingly almost made the playoffs on the wings of Goran Dragic? All gone, turned into “superstar potential” Eric Bledsoe and “dead” Brandon Knight. And Archie Goodwin. Can’t forget him, he’s going to be really good this season believe me for real this time. Lucky for…

Willie Cauley-Stein 17 Points/3 Blocks Full Highlights (10/30/2015)

If you could hear it behind the insufferable cackling of the Kings commentators, you would notice a complaint stating that all anyone ever says about Willie Cauley-Stein is that he sucks on offense. It’s a fair criticism of his overall game; despite his anomalous performance tonight, Wet Willie is not the most adept big-man and…

Rondae Hollis-Jefferson 10 Points Full Highlights (10/30/2015)

Wow, this performance just doesn’t seem as good as it did when I first saw it. Sure, it’s a rookie having his first “good” game in the NBA. That’s great. I’m happy for Rondae Hollis-Jefferson. But only 10 points? There is a certain other triple-named rookie tonight who scored 28 points. I’m not going to…

Karl-Anthony Towns 28 Points/4 Blocks Full Highlights (10/30/2015)

Practice was over. As the Timberwolves milled around the gym, drinking their Gatorade and chatting idly amongst one another, Karl-Anthony Towns started off running towards the exit, an excited look on his face and his hastily-applied bright red scarf trailing behind him. The still assembled players could hear a faint voice emanating from the corridors…
