I don’t feel like doing any research, so someone who is smarter than me can tell me that I’m being a dumbass. But why is calling Nicolas Batum a “Frenchman” totally okay while if someone called Jeremy Lin a “Chinaman” everyone would flip out? There must be some derogatory connotations included with the second one…

Alex Len Career High 31 Points Full Highlights (3/4/2016)
The best aspects of really bad (not tanking, notice how I didn’t say tanking, no tanking here, nope) teams are no doubt the great performances that not-so-great players are given the opportunity to achieve. On what other team could we see Alex Len go off for 31 points? The 76ers, and maybe the… Nuggets or…

Serge Ibaka pondered the events that had lead him to this spot. The All-Star break afforded him plenty of time to travel, certainly, but when his teammates had asked where he was traveling to, Serge had evasively answered “overseas”. None of them would take him seriously if he said he was traveling to Nepal to…

Finding Zaza’s advice insufficient, Chandler Parsons turns to other sources… http://imgur.com/a/wARRT
Read MoreDevin Booker Career High 34 Points Full Highlights (3/3/2016)
Since pretty much winning the three-point shootout (a rook going toe-to-toe with the Splash Brothers counts as a win to me), Devin Booker has smashed into the rookie wall and broken his three-point stroke, shooting 28% from deep over those 6 games. This is not totally unexpected. Seeing him do so well against the premiere…
Read MoreDante Cunningham 16 Points/4 Threes Full Highlights (3/2/2016)
The most embarrassing thing you can do on the basketball court is bank in a corner three. Banking in threes from the corner should be avoided whenever possible. Those prone to banking in threes from the corner should just avoid shooting corner threes entirely. Nobody told this to Dante “Crafty Pork” Cunningham, who has been…
Read MoreAlan Anderson 18 Points Full Highlights (3/2/2016)
It’s unlikely that Alan “Kobe 0.1” Anderson continues to shoot 50% from three as he has done in his first four games back from surgery, but for this moment, just this one moment, let us relish the fact that old man Alan is contributing to winning basketball for a team with playoff aspirations. I want…
Read MoreMarcelo Huertas 9 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (3/2/2016)
Marcelo “The Brazilian Hobbit” Huertas is an old rookie. Like, 32 old. That’s old. Not quite Pablo Prigioni old, but still old. In fact, Pablo Prigioni is probably a good comparison for plenty of superficial reasons: -Both old -Both Euro -And by Euro I mean South American -Both point guards -Both don’t score very much…
Read MoreD.J. Augustin 26 Points Full Highlights (3/2/2016)
Twenty-two points is a lot to score in one quarter unless your name is Klay Thompson. It’s especially a lot if your name happens to be D.J. Augustin. However, that total is exactly the amount that Augustin managed to score during the fourth quarter of the Nuggets-Lakers game! Crazy, huh? That’s the sort of thing…
