E’Twaun Moore 17 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (2/6/2016)

How many good games does E’Twaun Moore have to have before Stacey King comes up with a catchphrase for him? Or has such a catchphrase already been devised and I’m just not watching enough Bulls games to ever hear it? Phrases such as “give me the hot sauce E’Twaun” or “table for three Mr. Moore…

Otto Porter 20 Points Full Highlights (2/6/2016)

After a guy scores eighteen in the first half you sort of expect him to score more than twenty in the game. Am I wrong to expect that? Watching this video might SEEM fun to you, but really you should feel disappointment when you watch it. If you feel anything else you’re watching the video…

Markel Brown 15 Points Full Highlights (2/6/2016)

Sometimes players will thrive in a bad situation. Apparently Markel Brown is not one of those players. The NBA should have tried harder to get this guy in the dunk contest because I honestly don’t think he’s going to be in the league after this year. There’s simply no room in the NBA for undersized…

Gorgui Dieng 24 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (2/6/2016)

“Dear Diary, Today, the unimaginable happened. To preface this account, I must stress that I am very careful to check the weather forecast many times per day. If there is even a wisp of cloud floating in the sky, I will double-check to ensure that none of the cursed white sand will fall from the…

Rodney Hood 25 Points Full Highlights (2/6/2016)

Quick quiz: What were the actual events that went down during the ill-fated filming of the “Reppin’ the Hood” music video featuring DownToBuck and Rodney Hood? A. Rodney Hood smoked too much green and while waving around a shotgun (while riding shotgun with a ho on each arm) he accidentally killed a dude by shooting…

Nicolas Batum 26 Points/9 Assists Full Highlights (2/6/2016)

Cue up the melancholy music folks, because I’m about to drop a bomb of sadness on your sorry faces. Nicolas Batum is already 27 years old. That means that we only have, give or take a few years, a decade remaining of sweet Nicolas Batum highlights. A decade isn’t a very long time. 9/11 was…

Norris Cole Career High 26 Points Full Highlights (2/6/2016)

The Pelicans’ commentary crew is not the greatest in the league. Not the worst, not even close, but not very exciting or noteworthy. However, they are docked a few points tonight for their outrageous gaffe tonight. When Norris Cole set a new career high in points on his last bucket of the night, they DIDN’T…

Karl-Anthony Towns 26 Points Full Highlights (2/6/2016)

Karl-Anthony Towns is a beast. Andrew Wiggins is a beast. Zach LaVine is a beast. All three of those players are beasts, and yet the Timberwolves can’t win any games. That much beastitude should be, by itself, worth at least 40 wins, but they haven’t earned even close to that many. What’s the problem up…

Jahlil Okafor 22 Points/3 Blocks Full Highlights (2/6/2016)

Jahlil Okafor is losing out in the hype arms-race to Kristaps Porzingis and Karl-Anthony Towns. Hell, he’s losing ground to frickin’ Nikola Jokic at this point. One of the most hyped prospects in recent times, and he’s getting out-hyped by a skinny dude from Serbia, a skinnier dude from Latvia, and a guy with too…
