This game between the Suns and Knicks at MSG was the perfect setting for some serious beef resolution to happen. Remember, Marquese Chriss and Kristaps Porzingis have been in the midst of a major beef (extra beefy please) ever since Chriss tackled Porzingis and threw him to the ground earlier in the season. They didn’t…

Terry Rozier 15 Points/1 Clutch Shot Full Highlights (1/21/2017)
Terry Rozier was a very clutch dude last night, sinking a three-pointer to tie the game with eight seconds left, a game which eventually went into overtime. The Celtics went on to lose the game, but in the context of Rozier’s performance that doesn’t matter. He was a clutch mofo. The fact that his teammates…
Read MoreErsan Ilyasova 21 Points Full Highlights (1/21/2017)
I’ve said it before (or maybe I haven’t, because I say so much stuff in these descriptions that I lose track of all my opinions sometimes), but Ersan “Arsen Ilyasov from Uzbekistan” Ilyasova is the second-best player on the 76ers, and it’s not even close. He would challenge for tops on the team if Joel…
Read MoreDejounte Murray 14 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (1/21/2017)
For the second straight day, I am undermined by the NBA’s lax allocation of assists. At 2:10 in this video, a player who is clearly not Dejounte Murray passes the ball to Kawhi Leonard, who takes a few dribbles and then shoots a three. The merits of even awarding an assist for that play are…
Read MoreMarcus Morris 25 Points/1 Game-Winner Full Highlights (1/21/2017)
Finally, a game-winner that is legit. Devin Booker supposedly had a “game-winner” with his three that he hit with like 30 seconds left in the game. What the heck? Get that weak stuff outta here. When I hear “game-winner”, I want a shot that wins the game so thoroughly that the team that made it…
Read MoreMeyers Leonard 17 Points/2 Poster Dunks Full Highlights (1/21/2017)
Meyers Leonard is now the undisputed champion of making dunk-ruining stanky faces. He’s leading the league in the category of “lessening of the impact of his devastating poster dunk by putting on a ridiculous pouty face”, with 2. I don’t think any other player has even 1. He’s basically the MVP of this aspect of…
Read MoreGeorge Hill 30 Points Full Highlights (1/21/2017)
George Hill needs to do a lot better job playing in desirable media markets. He’s been a solidly solid point guard his whole career, but no one knows his name because of the obscurity of the locales he’s chosen to play in. San Antonio? Indianapolis? Salt Lake City? No offense to the fine denizens of…
Read MorePaul Zipser 13 Points Full Highlights (1/21/2017)
Pääul Zïpßer does it again! And just in time for Heidelbergers to wake up, have their morning coffee, and watch their favorite son’s highlights on everyone’s favorite video-sharing website! First he scored 10 against the Hawks, which was already way above his norm, and then he scores 13 in the very next game? It’s really…
Read MoreDevin Booker 26 Points Full Highlights (1/21/2017)
NBA fans 30 years from now are going to look back on this season and wonder who the heck Devin Booker was and how the heck he managed to average 20 points a game over the whole year. I mean, there will definitely be people who know who he was and remember his game, but…
Read MoreDion Waiters Career High 33 Points Full Highlights (1/21/2017)
You have not experienced pain as an NBA fan until you have watched Dion Waiters drop 33 points on your team. That means, as of right now, the only NBA fans who have truly withstood the most intense agony the NBA has to offer are Timberwolves fans who remember the Arinze Onuaku era, Salmons-era Kings…
