At this point, there is nothing you can say or do to Marcus Smart that will make him stop taking so many threes. That’s just who he is. You want all the other stuff he brings to the table, then you deal with the big pile of bricks. It does no good to complain about…

Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot 18 Points Full Highlights (4/6/2017)
How old is Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot? This is not a rhetorical question. I don’t know. If he’s under 21, I’m just going to go ahead and anoint him the next Giannis. Is that cool with everyone? Not able to drink yet = Greek Freak part 2 French edition. Able to legally consume alcohol = just another…
Read MoreNikola Mirotic 22 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (4/6/2017)
I think the hype for Nikola Mirotic took a permanent hit after he got benched a couple weeks ago. His hype levels were already kind of low for what kind of a player he is (the Euro kind), but the prospect of him never getting to play again have lowered them even further into the…
Read MoreElfrid Payton 22 Points/11 Assists Full Highlights (4/6/2017)
Elfrid Payton probably represents my worst effort-to-views ratio of any NBA player. Every time he has a good game, which is more and more frequent, the resultant highlights are at least 3 minutes long, sometimes 4. Vids that long take a correspondingly long time to compile, and they only get a few thousand views apiece….
Read MoreRon Baker 12 Points Full Highlights (4/6/2017)
Ron “Monix” Baker is a fan favorite in New York for one reason and one reason only: he looks like Monix from the movie Semipro. There are no other reasons, involving any -ism, for why the Knicks faithful cheer him more than they should for a player of his (low) caliber. None. Well, maybe because…
Read MoreJerian Grant 15 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (4/6/2017)
The Bulls have too many point guards. The players know it, the FO knows it, the fans know it, everybody knows it. Rondo, Carter-Williams, Payne, Canaan, Grant. A whole lineup of PGs is possible for them, which should never be the case. So it makes sense that if Jerian Grant isn’t playing well, he isn’t…
Read MoreAaron Gordon 21 Points/5 Dunks Full Highlights (4/6/2017)
Aaron Gordon for Dario Saric, who says no? Everybody? Too bad. The Magic FO already laid their intentions bare with this one, so I’m pretty sure it’s going to happen whether we like it or not. Why else would they write it on their official whiteboard of official transaction ideas? Hope you enjoyed Gordon while…
Read MoreCaris LeVert 20 Points Full Highlights (4/6/2017)
The Nets season is, mercifully, coming to an end. Better luck next year, bros, because you can just forget all about this one. Did anything go right for them at all? I guess Brook Lopez was pretty solid. And some of their young talent didn’t totally crash and burn when given more opportunity then they…
Read MoreJared Dudley 19 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (4/5/2017)
Do you think Jared Dudley has come to terms with the fact that his team has blatantly given up trying to be competetive? He probably knew when he signed his contract to return to the Suns that playoffs were not the end goal of the season, but he probably didn’t expect the veterans of the…
Read MoreNene 16 Points Full Highlights (4/5/2017)
When I sat down at my ultra high-powered highlights battlestation, preparing to make a premium Nene highlight video, I expected there to be at least five dunks. Maybe six. Because when you’re an athletic center who plays next to James Harden, you’re gonna get a lot of dunks. It’s almost to the point where you…
