Why haven’t their been locker room fights in Sacramento yet? Their team is well-stocked with players who are known fighters. Matt Barnes will punch anything that looks at his wife the wrong way, anything that looks at HIM the wrong way, or anything that moves. Darren Collison will punch anything that looks like his wife….

Tristan Thompson 22 Points Full Highlights (2/6/2017)
Tristan “Triscuits” Thompson choked near the end of regulation, making just one of two free throws when making both of them would have obviously been better (it’s math). However, making zero of them would have been way worse, so Triscuits didn’t choke as hard as he could have. There was definitely a higher level of…
Read MoreTy Lawson 22 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (2/6/2017)
Ty Lawson seems to be playing slightly better of late, especially if you ignore the games where he scores in the single digits. In my mind, there are two possible yet conflicting reasons why he’s recently been looking a little bit better on the court: Option A: Lawson has given up alcohol entirely, has thrown…
Read MoreYogi Ferrell 15 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (2/6/2017)
We have already seen the peak of Yogi Ferrell’s NBA career: 32 points, 9 threes, 1 kajillion hearts won. There is nowhere to go but down for him. Those who climb the highest mountains must either come down or die at the top… wow, that was pretty profound. Damn. Did I come up with that?…
Read MoreRodney McGruder 15 Points Full Highlights (2/6/2017)
Rodney McGruder might win this year’s award of “Player Who No One Has Heard Of Save For Half Of His Team’s Fanbase”. That’s right, only half. Remember, lots of Heat fans still think LeBron is on their team. And who can blame them? The way he left is bound to leave a lot of mental…
Read MoreIvica Zubac 10 Points/4 Blocks Full Highlights (2/6/2017)
Man, you gotta feel for Timofey Mozgov. He goes from not playing on a really good team because the team is too good to play him, to not playing on a really bad team because the team is too bad to play him. Maybe that sounds like I’m saying Mozgov would make the Lakers better,…
Read MoreOtto Porter 25 Points Full Highlights (2/6/2017)
Somehow Otto Porter is leading the league in three-point percentage. If he holds on to the lead, it will mark the first time since the 2008-09 season (why doesn’t Anthony Morrow get minutes WHY WHY WHY) that a melanin-ed individual achieves that honor. Just a curiosity I noticed. The usual white suspects are either having…
Read MoreRicky Rubio 14 Points/13 Assists Full Highlights (2/6/2017)
I don’t know what Zach LaVine being out for the season means for Ricky Rubio. I know what it means for Brandon Rush (Thibs is gonna try and kill him with minutes), but Ricky? He’s probably gonna keep doing what he has been doing a lot lately: dropping hella dimes. As long as Towns isn’t…
Read MoreDerrick Favors 20 Points Full Highlights (2/6/2017)
This is Derrick Favor’s best scoring game of the season. That injury must have really screwed him up, because he averaged 16 the last two years, and now double figures is a good game for him. Combine his general ineffectiveness with the Jazz’s surprisingly good record, and Favors has become the forgotten man in Utah….
Read MoreWill Barton 31 Points Full Highlights (2/6/2017)
What is there to say about Will Barton? He’s such an average player. He doesn’t really have any outstanding characteristics now that he’s toned his game down a little bit, no longer resembling the crack-monster known as Corey Brewer as much. He’s having a decent year, but not as decent as last year. Here’s something:…
