“I do not trust this American food,” Dario Saric sniffed, sitting at a table in a cramped, crowded restaurant with two of his teammates. “This place is dirty and loud. It is not a place where one could ever expect to enjoy a decent meal.” “C’mon man, cheesesteaks are, like, the only thing you can…

JaVale McGee 16 Points Full Highlights (2/11/2017)
It may get tiresome for you guys to hear me to petition coaches to give their scrubs/role-players more minutes over and over again. But I can’t help it! My end goal is to see a whole league full of nothing but marginal players putting up big games. As far as I know, there is no…
Read MoreGerald Green 16 Points Full Highlights (2/11/2017)
This game by Gerald Green brings me back to his days in Phoenix; just a whole bunch of horrible shots that somehow go in. None of the dunks though. If that first sentence got you hyped for dunks, I’m sorry. There are no dunks in this vid. No dunks, but the two really iffy three-pointers…
Read MoreMirza Teletovic 19 Points/5 Threes Full Highlights (2/11/2017)
The Bucks are simply way more fun to watch when Mirza Teletovic is taking and making swaggy triples. This year, his performances have tended more towards the “taking” and not so much the “making”. Watching him attempt swaggy triples is also kind of fun, more fun that the usual player, but the funness goes way…
Read MoreNicolas Batum 25 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (2/11/2017)
The NBA, earlier in the season, reached “Peak Nicolas”, where there were three separate dudes named Nicolas plying their trade for the association. Add in the four “Nikola”s, and I’m thinking what happened to dudes just named “Nick”? Nick Collison doesn’t count (too old). This is America, this isn’t some other heathen country, this is…
Read MoreNicolas Brussino 10 Points Full Highlights (2/11/2017)
Is this the next Golden Age of Argentine Basketball? The Nicolas Bros, Brussino and Laprovittola? Humph. Laprovittola has already been waived, and Brussino… well, 10 points for him is a start. But if he wants to be taken seriously, he has start dropping 30 like Walter Herrmann used to do. Don’t think I’m hating. I’m…
Read MoreTyler Ulis 13 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (2/11/2017)
Tyler Ulis got more minutes than Brandon Knight tonight, who was once almost an All-Star with the Bucks. Ulis also got more minutes than Eric Bledsoe, who apparently needed rest so bad that he had to sit out the whole game. Not to mention more minutes than Ronnie Price who… that guy is still in…
Read MoreThon Maker 12 Points/3 Threes Full Highlights (2/11/2017)
With Jabari dead/buried, and with him all hope of a Bucks’ playoff berth, there is no reason not to give Thon Maker 30 minutes a contest. Or at least attempt to give him 30 minutes a contest. He’d probably foul out way before he got to 30. Maker is still at that stage of his…
Read MoreJames Johnson 26 Points Full Highlights (2/11/2017)
Attention future YouTube users who searched “James Johnson” and are trying to decide which of his 26-point performances you should watch first: watch the one that isn’t this one. Then, if you really like what you see and absolutely need to see more, you can watch this one. Not all 26-point performances are created equal….
Read MoreNikola Jokic 27 Points Full Highlights (2/11/2017)
Next step in Nikola Jokic’s development: cultivate an audience in the US that isn’t basketball dorks. Basically, appeal to the Curry-lovers and Kobe-stans. It’ll be hard, because of certain characteristics he possesses (whiteness, flabbiness, etc), but it’s doable. First, he has to grow an afro. Years of focused research has shown that Urban Millennials love…
