Zach Randolph, now in his 16th year in the NBA, is currently posting the most efficient shooting season of his career. I don’t exactly understand how this is happening, but it is, and we all have to enjoy it while it lasts. At his age, things can go south in a hurry with no hope of recovery. Every 25-point explosion might be the last before his knees have their own explosion.
The 76ers tonight were lacking anyone who could’ve hoped to stop Z-Bo. Embiid would have at least tried, but he’s injured again, and the next best option for them was Amir Johnson. In the end, it didn’t matter who they put on him, he would just use his “veteran savvy” (a code term for “big ass” from what I can tell) and score with ease.
Also, was that fan who was high-fiving him and stuff someone we should know about? Or is he just a fan? Because if he’s just a fan, I’m buying front-row seats at the next Bucks game to see if I can touch Khris Middleton.
