Josh Hart 11 Points/1 Dunk Full Highlights (12/14/2017)

Is Josh Hart this season’s Anthony Brown? For those who don’t remember, Anthony Brown played his rookie 15-16 season with the Lakers, appearing in 29 games and somehow starting eleven of them. He averaged four points per game, shot 31% from thefield, and, as of this season, is out of the league. Hart is shooting…

Kyle Kuzma 20 Points Full Highlights (12/14/2017)

Now that Kyle “The JaKuzzi” Kuzma has proven himself to be a legitimate scorer in the NBA, we need to determine whether or not he is part of the CORE of the Lakers. But, before we can do that, we must define exactly what the CORE of the Lakers is before the addition of Kuzma….

Omri Casspi 17 Points Full Highlights (12/14/2017)

Omri Casspi’s singular career accomplishment, in the eyes of most casual fans, is that he once got into a shootout with Stephen Curry. I suppose he can’t complain about that recognition, since most role-players haven’t done anything that videogenic, but he’s done a lot more things in his career that have slipped under the radar:…

Lonzo Ball 13 Points/11 Assists Full Highlights (12/14/2017)

Thanks to the sensationalist and irresponsible actions of the TNT broadcast crew, my Lonzo Ball three-ilation is ruined. It was to be the ultimate showcase of his wonky side-head form, but now, it will be nothing, because it won’t exist. I will not tolerate a so-called “three-ilation” that doesn’t depict every single three a player…

Brandon Ingram 26 Points Full Highlights (12/14/2017)

I simply do not understand why they would rebrand Mountain Dew as “Mtn Dew”. It’s so stupid. Whenever I see it I pronounce it in my head as “Muhtin Dew”, instead of how god made it. Was the word “mountain” to long to fit in the logo? Obviously not. I’ve got a line of foam…

Jose Calderon 17 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (12/14/2017)

The Cavaliers are almost unbeatable with Jose Calderon as their starting point guard. The guy who was brought in as Derrick Rose insurance is acting as exactly that, providing solid minutes full of vet savvy and not using too much ball. On paper, he looks horrible. His defense, if it’s anything like years previous, is…

Ersan Ilyasova 23 Points Full Highlights (12/14/2017)

Ersan Ilyasova has a grand total of one (1) game in the 10-19 scoring range, a 10-point outing against the Knicks. Everything else has been single digits or twenty-plus. Feast or famine with this man. Still, I thought it would be all famine with him due to how he finished last season. Every 20-point game…

Courtney Lee 27 Points Full Highlights (12/14/2017)

MSG Network spent pretty much this whole game trying to guilt me into donating to Garden of Dreams. At a few points I had the number dialed and my credit card in hand, but I was able to step back from the brink. Not like I don’t support their cause, but I have to save…

Rondae Hollis-Jefferson Career High 25 Points Full Highlights (12/14/2017)

Both Rondae Hollis-Jefferson and Spencer Dinwiddie ended up with career-highs tonight, and still the Nets lost. It would be easy for me to go “LOL Nets” and leave it at that, but tonight, we will find the real reason as to why never before seen performances by two of their most important players resulted in…
