Lance Stephenson 15 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (10/28/2016)

As much as I’m going to miss Alonzo Gee being around to dunk basketballs/play defense sometimes/not have a jumper, I don’t blame the Pelicans at all for choosing Lance Stephenson over him. Lance Stephenson was once the second-best(?) player on a team that made a conference finals. The last time Alonzo Gee was the second…

Beno Udrih 13 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (10/28/2016)

Beno Udrih sat down at his writing desk, retrieved his finest ballpoint pen and a sturdy piece of stationery, and began to write. “An Ode to Slovenia: Slovenia is the country of my birth Now I will describe its lack of worth While there are truly good people there To ever find them is quite…

Sean Kilpatrick 18 Points Full Highlights (10/28/2016)

When I was watching this game, I was confused about who was scoring the points that Sean Kilpatrick was scoring until they said his name. That’s because he no longer has that bleached mohawk thing on the top of his head. Now he has a normal haircut. I repeat: he no longer has the bleached…

Tim Frazier Career High 21 Points/10 Assists Full Highlights (10/28/2016)

Because the Pelicans are forever cursed when it comes to their alleged starting point guard, Jrue Holiday, us fans are treated to extra helpings of “The Crazier Frazier”. So it was at the end of last season, so it is at the beginning of this season, so it will be until Jrue Holiday comes back….

Trevor Ariza 27 Points Full Highlights (10/28/2016)

It doesn’t even feel like it, but this is one of Trevor Ariza’s best scoring games as a Rocket. (At least in his second tenure. His first tenure with them happened so long ago that the only thing I remember from that period of my life is that occasion when I masturbated 8 times in…

Mario Hezonja 13 Points Full Highlights (10/28/2016)

I knew what I was getting myself into when I decided to make these highlights. I watched a good chunk of the second half, so I knew the dark truth when it came to Mario Hezonja’s performance: he stat-padded in garbage time. To be fair to Hizzoner, most of this game was garbage time for…

Brook Lopez 25 Points Full Highlights (10/28/2016)

“The more things change, the more they stay the same” – Some Really Sage Dude of Antiquity We have a whole new NBA season, full of new ugly faces on new teams, new ugly jerseys and new ugly logos to make fun of, and a new ugly NBA website that blows donkey dong. And yet,…

Aaron Gordon 17 Points/2 Dunks Full Highlights (10/28/2016)

I feel like the Orlando Magic put all their eggs in the “Aaron Gordon is for sure gonna bust out really hard” basket. Look at their roster, look at the moves they made in the offseason. It’s like they’re building around some sort of centerpiece, a franchise cornerstone. But who is that cornerstone? It can’t…

Harrison Barnes Career High 31 Points Full Highlights (10/28/2016)

There’s no way that even the most ardent of Mavericks diehards expected this kind of performance from Harrison Barnes this early in the season. Not after the preseason he had. I know, I know, you don’t need to tell me that preseason stats mean nothing. But his were just SO BAD. If you told me…

T.J. Warren Career High 30 Points Full Highlights (10/28/2016)

I have one question, and one question only: Why do the Suns guards hate T.J. Warren? Why? Why? Tell us the reason! In case you didn’t notice (which is really quite a glaring failure on your part, but whatever), Warren Peace scored 30 tonight. A career high. He had never scored more points in the…
