If you ever want some extra proof that Hassan Whiteside isn’t the greatest defender, just watch this vid. Holy DAMN. Andrew Nicholson (to repeat: ANDREW NICHOLSON) absolutely abused him repeatedly. REPEATEDLY. MORE THAN ONCE. How many times can you do a pump fake and have it still work? Apparently, as many times as you want,…

Michael Beasley 21 Points Full Highlights (3/25/2016)
I used to not want for the Rockets to make the playoffs. Not for any particular dislike of them; I just like seeing good teams do bad (it means more scrub highlights). Due to unforeseen circumstances, my position has officially reversed. Now I want nothing more than for the Rockets to make the playoffs, and…
Read MoreZach LaVine 25 Points Full Highlights (3/25/2016)
I’m sitting here rewatching these highlights, and I’m wondering: is there any legitimate reason why Zach LaVine can’t be like a Stephen Curry? Not the full version, obviously, but like 3/4ths of a Stephen Curry without the passing. He’s got the handle (kinda) and the range (kinda). That’s all you need. I’m not even being…
Read MoreAlexis Ajinca 22 Points Full Highlights (3/25/2016)
It’s been over a year since I made Alexis Ajinca highlights. And it’s not like I was constantly passing up primo opportunities to showcase him; no, he’s been missing-in-action for pretty much the whole season. A few 10 or 12 point games, but that’s it. You’d think that on a team that has to START…
Read MoreMyles Turner 24 Points Full Highlights (3/24/2016)
Myles Turner is already the best offensive big on the Pacers. This is a fact, and one of the properties of a fact is that losers on the internet are not allowed to dispute its factuality. Jordan Hill, the other midrange shooting big on the roster, is a decent offensive player but he’s not Brook…
Read MoreAlonzo Gee 17 Points/3 Dunks Full Highlights (3/24/2016)
Do you want to hear something crazy? At the beginning of the Kyrie era in Cleveland, Alonzo “Gee Whiz” Gee was the full-time starter for one season and a part-time starter for parts of two others. Alonzo Gee. Starter. Something about reading those words makes me want to lie down and take a nap and…
Read MoreShane Larkin 16 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (3/24/2016)
Is this a Ramon Sessions video? Because it’s nothing but layups. Okay, it starts off with a three-pointer, but then it’s nothing but layups. Six layups in a row. Thankfully, Larkin was considerate enough to collect some assists in the meantime, so you do get to watch some jumpshots, even if it’s not Larkin shooting…
Read MoreTim Frazier 18 Points Full Highlights (3/24/2016)
Recently I had to put a moratorium on Sean Kilpatrick highlights until he scored at least 20. I fear I might have to do the same for Tim Frazier. I don’t want to, but that’s the way it is. The marketplace is becoming saturated with his middling highlights, and the last thing I want to…
Read MoreMarcus Thornton 23 Points Full Highlights (3/23/2016)
Marcus Thornton sure does like to shoot. And my opinion is, the Wizards should just let him shoot. He has conclusively proved in previous stints around the league that he can be an effective (if tubby) volume scorer when given the green light to do so. His defense might be fairly abysmal, but as I’ve…
Read MoreDevin Booker 28 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (3/23/2016)
Devin Booker knew he wasn’t really supposed to be near the visitors’ locker room. He also knew that this was perhaps his last chance to meet his idol, Kobe Bryant. Given the circumstances, Devin thought he should be allowed a little leeway in terms of where he was and wasn’t supposed to be. He had…
