“This is going to be so funny,” Dirk giggled as he sat on the floor next to J.J. Barea’s locker, applying mortar to a pile of nearby bricks. “J.J.’s gonna be pissed.” “I hope he gets the joke,” said Harrison Barnes, who was overseeing the construction project. “It would be lame if we had to…

Wilson Chandler 22 Points Full Highlights (11/6/2016)
I’m under the impression that Wilson Chandler and Danilo Gallinari play the same position. That wasn’t a problem last year because Chandler got to take a year-long vacation from basketball (some people are so lucky), but it might be a problem this year. Since both players are competent scorers who deserve large amounts of minutes,…
Read MoreHarrison Barnes 34 Points Full Highlights (11/6/2016)
I’m not mad at all that Harrison Barnes totally whooped the Bucks by toasting Jabari and Snell repeatedly. I have transcended sports fandom to become a totally neutral observer, watching the proceedings with only a scientific curiosity, rather than the rabid obsession of a fan. Watching Barnes cook up some of his special-recipe beastsauce and…
Read MoreNick Young 22 Points Full Highlights (11/6/2016)
This is an appropriately swaggy Nick Young video, definitely befitting his “Swaggy-P” nickname. With the exception of his first goaltended bucket and some free throws at the end, this vid is nothing but primo swaggy action. Stepback jumpers, a couple threes, and lots of thick, hot, viscous, dripping swag being deposited on every available surface….
Read MoreDevin Booker Career High 39 Points Full Highlights (11/6/2016)
Why does this near 40-point performance by Devin Booker not feel as insane as it should? Under normal circumstances I would be rushing to my YouTube settings and changing my channel name to FunsInTheSuns. I would be smashing my vintage Bucks bobbleheads with a hammer while simultaneously going on Ebay and ordering as many Booker…
Read MoreEmmanuel Mudiay Career High 30 Points Full Highlights (11/6/2016)
When Emmanuel Mudiay had 24 in the first quarter, everyone who was aware was thinking the same thing. Do not try to deny it: Wilt’s 100 in great danger of being surpassed. Kobe’s 81 soon to be a forgotten footnote. I admit, I allowed my imagination to run free… Emmanuel Mudiay, dribbling out the clock…
Read MoreC.J. McCollum Career High 37 Points Full Highlights (11/6/2016)
I’m suffering a bit of a break from reality right now. Nothing to do about it, I’m just going to have to ride this one out, clinging to my sanity like a rock-climber dangling from a precipice. Watch this video. Everything seems normal, correct? Just normal highlights of C.J. McCollum tying a career-high with 37…
