Are people still making fun of Michael Jordan for drafting Frank Kaminsky in lieu of taking that huge package of picks from the Celtics? That seems like it was a while ago, and all fanbases involved have moved on to more pressing matters multiple times. Currently, for the Celtics, whether Al Horford is dead or…

Read MoreJosh Richardson 19 Points/3 Blocks Full Highlights (11/15/2016)
Those who expected the Heat to withstand the loss of Dwyane Wade and the clots of Chris Bosh were deluding themselves. Dion Waiters and Luke Babbitt are not suitable replacements, unless your goal as a team is to tank. Sorry to say, the Heat have burned out for now. Press F to pay respects. I’m…
Read MoreTrey Lyles 18 Points Full Highlights (11/14/2016)
“We’re going to do good, you and I,” Trey Lyles mumbled, holding a tattered cardboard box in his hands. He put his face next to the opening and laughed happily, as if something inside it had replied. “That’s right. We’ll be unstoppable.” Jeff Withey had wandered over. “Do you have to give yourself a pep…
Read MoreLangston Galloway 21 Points Full Highlights (11/14/2016)
Langston Galloway started off the season a bit slowly, but here’s the thing: he’s never been a great or even good scorer in the league. Anybody who thought he would transform himself into such a player this year was probably being too optimistic. I don’t count myself among that particular group of optimists, mostly because…
Read MoreJustin Holiday 16 Points Full Highlights (11/14/2016)
Every fanbase whose team acquires Justin Holiday seems to get extremely hyped for him despite his historical lack of production. This puzzled me for some months until I realized the reason for the hype, vain as it might be: these fans are watching MY highlight videos and coming away from them with the impression that…
Read MoreChris McCullough 13 Points Full Highlights (11/14/2016)
Give me one reason, JUST ONE, that I shouldn’t be hyped as heck about Chris McCullough after seeing him score 13 points against the Clippers (the best team in the league, FYI). That reason can’t involve small sample sizes, quality of competition faced, inconsistent performance, inability to see the court for the least talented team…
Read MoreYogi Ferrell 13 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (11/14/2016)
The Bucks traded a GOD DAMN first round pick for Greivis Vasquez. DAMMIT. Now the Nets have waived Trashquez so they can pick up… Yogi Ferrell???? That means, following the application of the transitive property, that the Bucks traded a FRIGGIN first round pick for Yogi EVERLOVING Ferrell. I sometimes wonder why I was cursed…
Read MoreVince Carter 20 Points/1 Dunk Full Highlights (11/14/2016)
Another 20 point game for the NBA’s oldest player. How is this happening? I didn’t want to admit it to myself, but Vince Carter looked kinda done last year. Not totally done, mind you. If he wants he can play until he’s 45. It’s just, you know, he didn’t look very effective at all on…
Read MoreJoe Ingles Career High 20 Points Full Highlights (11/14/2016)
The more things change, the more they stay the same. We have a whole new NBA season with all the unexpectedness that implies, yet Joe Ingles remains still the least-NBA-looking player of any player in the NBA. Check out Jinglin’ Joe’s drives to the basket in this game. How did those even work? He was…
