Joe Ingles 15 Points/9 Assists Full Highlights (11/25/2017)

When I tuned in to the Bucks-Jazz game at first I thought I had entered some kind of time warp, because it looked like we were playing the Pacers. I was getting ready to call all the newspapers and tell them that I was a time traveler and that they should interview me, but then…

Malcolm Brogdon 19 Points Full Highlights (11/25/2017)

I was happy about the Bucks trading for Eric Bledsoe even though I knew in my heart of hearts that it would result in fewer minutes for former ROTY of the year Malcolm Brogdon AKA The Junkyard Brog AKA The Cybrog. But now I’m like, Eric Bledsoe is sort of sucking, especially at shooting the…

Tony Snell 18 Points Full Highlights (11/25/2017)

Tony “Prince of Darkness” Snell is currently leading the league in true shooting percentage (if you take out all the people who don’t have enough shots to qualify) at 69.5%. I don’t know how true shooting percentage is calculated or why the stat even exists in the first place, but if puts a Bucks player…

Otto Porter 24 Points Full Highlights (11/25/2017)

The Wizards were up by 17 points after Otto Porter made his free throws with 8:53 left in the fourth quarter. Otto Porter did not attempt another field goal the rest of the game and the Wizards ended up losing to the Blazers by three. OFFICIAL WHOSE FAULT WAS IT THAT THE WIZARDS LOST POWER…

Elfrid Payton 22 Points/9 Assists Full Highlights (11/25/2017)

Elfrid “Flattop Got Stuck in a Vacuum” Payton had missed a stretch of eight games early in the season due to some kind of injury (perhaps related to his floppy hair thing). Now he’s back in the starting point guard role and guess what? The Magic have lost eight games in a row. You know…

Kyle O’Quinn 20 Points Full Highlights (11/25/2017)

It’s getting to be that time of year again. The time of year where Kyle “Irish Black Santa” O’Quinn starts to feel the Christmas spirit, as well as the spirit of Eire, and also the spirit of his African ancestors. All three of these spirits combine into the puffy-bearded force known as O’Quinn. He picked…

Michael Beasley 30 Points Full Highlights (11/25/2017)

Michael Beasley was a legit good player for a playoff team last year. That’s the facts right there, undisputable. So why are the Knicks (probably not a playoff team) seemingly not interested in letting B-Easy show his stuff? It took Porzingis and Kanter being injured for him to get his chance, and he took advantage….

Lance Stephenson 16 Points Full Highlights (11/25/2017)

The first half of this game was a continuation of the fourth quarter Lance Stephenson had against the Raptors, the main feature being horrible stepback jimbos after too much dribbling, this time with added post-basket dance moves to really get the crowd pumped. Add in a fairly powerful dunk, and you have the reason why…

Jakob Poeltl 14 Points Full Highlights (11/25/2017)

Raptors fans who actually watched this game should have told me that these seven buckets by Jakob Poeltl were about the lamest seven buckets any NBA player has had this season. Why did no one tell me? Do they not have internet in Canada? I know they do, because I know that I get tons…

Buddy Hield 27 Points/7 Threes Full Highlights (11/25/2017)

I thought hard about including Buddy Hield’s absolute airball on his potential game-winning/tying attempt. It was really bad! It didn’t even come close to going in, but I decided to leave you all with a much kinder picture of how Hield performed tonight. He was, certainly, clutch as all heck, hitting two threes in the…
