Dorian Finney-Smith just tallied a new career-high of twelve points after scoring eleven points a week ago. This is what is called “progress”. You might not have heard of it considering you’ve made none of it either in your romantic or professional life. Watching NBA highlight videos on the internet doesn’t count as any kind…

Michael Kidd-Gilchrist 16 Points Full Highlights (12/9/2016)
We’re just going to have to face facts here: Michael Kidd-Gilchrist will never be a primary offensive threat for any team. Ever. To be such a thing would require having either a go-to post game or a go-to jumpshot; MKG has neither. He will be relegated to scoring garbage baskets near the rim for his…
Read MoreDerrick Williams 17 Points Full Highlights (12/9/2016)
“That looks cool, you a DJ or something?” asked Wayne Ellington, noticing the Digital Audio Workstation that was open on Derrick Williams’ laptop. “Not quite. I’m creating audio art but I wouldn’t call myself a DJ,” Derrick replied as he rearranged tracks and fiddled with digital knobs. “Audio art? You mean music?” Wayne responded, eyebrows…
Read MoreLou Williams 35 Points Full Highlights (12/9/2016)
I may have erred when I (prematurely) crowned Wilson Chandler with the 6MOTY Of The Year crown. Both Lou Williams and Wilson Chandler are leading their respective teams in scoring, but Lou is doing it while scoring more points. He also had thirty-five in his last game; Chandler had five points on 2-of-16 from the…
Read MoreLeandro Barbosa 21 Points/5 Threes Full Highlights (12/9/2016)
This is now the third separate stint for Leandro Barbosa on the Suns. What is it about that organization that they are so desperately nostalgic for players that were around during their glory years in the mid 00’s? They also went out and got Jared Dudley so they could pretend that everything was the same…
Read MoreSteven Adams Career High 24 Points Full Highlights (12/9/2016)
I understand the difficulties of being a commentator for nationally televised games. You’re dealing with viewers who have no idea what’s going on in the NBA, viewers who have to be brought up to speed with the various storylines during any possible break in the game. Sometimes, there still isn’t enough time, and you have…
Read MoreHarrison Barnes 25 Points Full Highlights (12/9/2016)
Harrison Barnes is doing it: he’s averaging 20 points per game for an NBA team. I didn’t think it was possible. You didn’t think it was possible. Barnes didn’t think it was possible. Nobody except for Mark Cuban thought it was possible. Born in a Barnes isn’t doing much besides scoring right now, but that…
Read MoreWesley Matthews 26 Points Full Highlights (12/9/2016)
Description pending: watching Kings-Knicks right now. Alright, there’s a timeout! Quick! Go go go go… think of something good to write about Wesley Matthews. Don’t delay! Um… he looks better than he did at the beginning of the season? That’s not saying much, but he’s returned his three-point percentage back to his career mark. Uh…
Read MoreDennis Schröder Career High 33 Points Full Highlights (12/9/2016)
I’m going to try and write this description without any bitterness over the Bucks blowing a 20-point lead at home to a team that sucks now. Okay? I’m not angry, I’m not bitter, I’m a totally rational human being whose self-worth is in no way tied to the performance of a bunch of millionaires I’ve…
Read MoreNorman Powell 20 Points Full Highglights (12/9/2016)
Norman Powell played a total of 18 minutes the last three games. That’s 6 minutes per game for those of you who can’t do maths. That’s not very many minutes. At all. You’re telling me, that in a 44 point win against the Hawks, Dwayne Casey couldn’t find more than 6 minutes for Normal Powenn?…
