Eric Bledsoe has been shut down for the year. There might be reasons besides tanking, there might not be. I don’t care. I doubt Suns fans care. No one cares except for Bledsoe and his family. All these other people have other desires than seeing Bledsoe lead the Suns to meaningless late-season wins. Desires that…

Solomon Hill Career High 30 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (3/17/2017)
Solomon Hill’s name is one that gets brought up often in conversations about the worst contracts in the NBA. And for good reason; he’s getting paid 12 million per year to be an inefficient role-player. Don’t talk to me about defense. I don’t care about defense. Box-score stats aren’t everything, but they are something, and…
Read MoreJustin Anderson 19 Points Full Highlights (3/17/2017)
You wouldn’t know it from watching this video, but Justin Anderson was playing against his former team tonight. Maybe he was trying to impress his old teammates, maybe he wasn’t, maybe he was trying to show up Mark Cuban, maybe he wasn’t, we have no way of knowing. The commentators didn’t mention it all. It…
Read MoreGary Harris 20 Points Full Highlights (3/16/2017)
I am so #hypedforgaryharris that I will make Gary Harris highlight videos under flimsy pretenses. Twenty points is hardly out of the ordinary for the Gary Harris at this point, but my compulsion to disseminate Gary Harris highlights to the masses cannot be overridden. Creating Gary Harris highlight videos also gives me more excuses to…
Read MoreRudy Gobert 20 Points Full Highlights (3/16/2017)
Like many other centers whose last names don’t end with “-okic”, Rudy Gobert is a constant double-double threat, but a negligible triple-double threat. In a league where triple-doubles are such a common occurrence that nobody even cares that Elfrid Payton had two of them in a row, this is unfortunate. Let’s put it this way:…
Read MoreTaurean Prince 16 Points/4 Blocks Full Highlights (3/16/2017)
I’ve already started outlining my upcoming fantasy novel titled “Taurean Prince”. Who says I can’t be a real author? I’m going hard on this. For those not in the know, this book is gonna be about a race of people/bull hybrids called the “Taures”. That’s where the “Taurean” part of the title comes from. It’s…
Read MoreRondae Hollis-Jefferson 20 Points Full Highlights (3/16/2017)
Alert Rondae Hollis-Jefferson fans who don’t want to sit through entire Nets games just to see him score 6 points: this career-high-tying performance by RHJ contains two RHJumpers. TWO. Not zero, not one. Two. Seeing him make layups is cool and all, but what people really want to see is him somehow guiding the ball…
Read MoreKyle O’Quinn Career High 23 Points Full Highlights (3/16/2017)
I don’t really understand why Kyle “Irish Black Santa” O’Quinn doesn’t get more minutes. The Knicks season is over. If he’s not going to be a part of their future plans, they could at least pump up his trade value by letting him get a few 15-15 games. Just like they themselves were fooled by…
Read MoreWill Barton Career High 35 Points/7 Threes Full Highlights (3/16/2017)
This performance by Will Barton seems really good, great even, until you realize that his closest NBA comparison, Corey Brewer, once scored 51 in a game. Then, you start to wonder why Barton hasn’t done the same, and the only conclusion you can come to is that Barton is a worse player than Brewer, who…
Read MoreNikola Jokic Triple Double 17 Pts/14 Rebs/10 Asts Full Highlights (3/16/2017)
Yes, I am aware that the boxscore and play-by-play credit Nikola Jokic with 11 assists. I wouldn’t make such a simple error (actually I would, you guys never notice if I’m missing an assist). Here’s the deal: his 11th assist occurred on a play where he didn’t touch the ball for the final 10 seconds…
