Brandon Ingram lay in his bed, watching Netflix on his iPad. His free hand was busy transferring Chex Mix from a bowl on his bedside table into his waiting mouth. The only light in the room was the flickering of the iPad screen. When a bright flash of light encroached on the very edges of…

Ryan Anderson 23 Points Full Highlights (12/7/2017)
Ryan Anderson began the process of excising the two-point shot from his game when he arrived in Houston. He would still take layups when presented with them, obviously, but the midrange jumper was deployed from his arsenal with less and less frequency. Now, in his second season with the team, he is shooting an insane…
Read MoreThabo Sefolosha 14 Points Full Highlights (12/7/2017)
Apparently Thabo Sefolosha scored fifteen points on two separate occasions this season and I totally didn’t realize? My bad. But not really my bad because nobody cares about Thabo Sefolosha and the only person who was missing those highlight videos was Thabo himself. Or his mom. There might be some Thunder fans out there who…
Read MoreDonovan Mitchell 26 Points Full Highlights (12/7/2017)
When Donovan Mitchell was held scoreless (save two free throws) in the first quarter of this game, I’m thinking it was pretty likely that TNT headquarters were descending into chaos. Do you think their executives were running into each others offices yelling “This highly-touted matchup between stud shooting guards has been a total flop! TV’s…

It’s happening. Ben Simmons is, as all good PGs do, beginning to get a little help from the scorekeepers when it comes to assists. You think John Stockton really earned all those assists? Sure, he was a great passer, but he was made greater by the liberal Jazz scorekeepers. I’m not surprised that it happened…
Read MoreT.J. Warren 23 Points Full Highlights (12/7/2017)
Afflicted with the dreaded “left adductor strain”, Devin Booker, may god rest his soul, has departed from his earthly existence and has taken his place in the heavens. It is a sad situation, but people need to move on as quickly as they can. Grief and despair must lead to the forging of an iron…
Read MoreCaris LeVert 21 Points/10 Assists Full Highlights (12/7/2017)
Ha! Ha! The heavily-touted Thunder lost again! This time, to a team featuring as its best player… Caris LeVert? Rondae Hollis-Jefferson? Spencer Dinwiddie? Whichever of the three you pick, there’s no way a star-laden team like OKC should be losing to the Nets as currently constructed. This game is way more of an indictment on…
