T.J. Warren: the new Khris Middleton? I’m just talking out of my butt here. I have no idea. Maybe? I’m making the comparison because they both have flat-looking jumpers. T.J. is the more natural scorer, I think. At least he was supposed to be, out of college. He needs to work on his already much-improved…

Boban Marjanovic 17 Points Full Highlights (12/28/2015)
Every time I watch Boban Marjanovic play it just blows my mind how much of him there is. Every aspect of him is huge. In a league where giants are the norm, he makes everyone he plays against look like a point guard. It’s insane. And when he went to give some dap to Kawhi…
Read MoreWayne Ellington 26 Points/7 Threes Full Highlights (12/28/2015)
Wayne “Beefy W” Ellington has not been as advertised with the Brooklyn Nets. Not really a surprise; he’s not that good of a player even on his best days and in a perfect situation. The Nets had the right idea getting a 3-point chucking guard for cheap, but in their endless quagmire of suckiness, it…
Read MoreSerge Ibaka 19 Points Full Highlights (12/27/2015)
Serge “Dirge” Ibaka: does he make the superstar duo of Durant and Westbrook into a “big three”? I’ve asked this before but the time is right to revisit the question. If we’re trying to make a big three out of the Thunder roster, there’s not many other candidates for the third player. Enes Kanter is…
Read MoreMeyers Leonard 16 Points Full Highlights (12/27/2015)
Take note, DeMarcus Cousins. This is the kind of player you become when you decide to play the stretch-five position. Reevaluate your motives and decide if Meyers Leonard is really who you want to become. Meyers transformed himself out of necessity; his job security in the NBA was low, and he did what he had…
Read MoreJoffrey Lauvergne Career High 18 Points Full Highlights (12/27/2015)
DownToBuck’s pet peeve of the day: when commentators say that a player has a season-high when they could say instead that the player has a career-high with the same amount of factual accuracy. When I saw Joffrey Lauvergne had 18 points, I immediately said to myself “yep, that right there is a career high for…

Read MoreKenneth Faried 25 Points Full Highlights (12/27/2015)
Let us take a moment to consider how much of a beast Kenneth Faried would be if he had a reliable jumpshot. Moment over! After careful consideration, you all should have come to identical conclusions; namely, that Kenneth Faried would be a total beast if he were to possess in his basketball arsenal a jumpshot…
Read MoreBismack Biyombo 14 Points/4 Blocks Full Highlights (12/26/2015)
Bismack “The Bizzy Body” Biyombo has been a total rebound machine for the Raptors in the absence of any other capable center on the team. The twelve he had in this game as actually pretty wimpy compared to the twenty he pulled down in the Raptors’ previous game against the Mavs. However, there is a…
Read MoreJoe Ingles 14 Points Full Highlights (12/26/2015)
Joe “No Habla” Ingles is indisputably the most hangdog-looking player in the NBA. From the perpetual circles under his eyes, to his diminished hair coverage, to his flabby, droopy cheeks, to the everpresent beginnings of a very ugly neckbeard on the underside of his chin, one has to wonder if there’s a reason Australia no…
