Dwight “Dwight Power” Powell seems like an ideal big man in today’s game: he can roll effectively to the basket to catch lobs, but he can also step out and hit jumpshots. There’s not a ton of players that can do both, and most coaches would enjoy having a player with that kind of versatility….

Terrance Ferguson Career High 24 Points/2 Dunks Full Highlights (1/3/2018)
Andre Roberson is sitting in his hotel room right now surrounded by empty candy bar wrappers and empty tissue boxes, his eyes still red and sore from crying all night. When Roberson gets back from injury, he knows there will be no more minutes for him, because this 19-year-old rookie Terrance Ferguson (who skipped college…
Read MoreMario Hezonja 14 Points Full Highlights (1/3/2018)
Do you think Mario Hezonja would punch his coach Frank Vogel in the penis if he knew that he could get away with it? Vogel, along with erstwhile head coach Scott Skiles, are the easiest culprits to blame for Hezonja’s lack of success in the NBA if you don’t want to blame Hezonja himself. Hezonja…
Read MoreJustin Holiday 26 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (1/3/2018)
The three-chuckingest part of Justin Holiday’s season is gone now. It’s sad to see, him not shooting hundreds of threes per 36, but the moderation of his attempts has directly corresponded with the Bulls winning games. We’ve all learned a valuable leason here: sometimes more threes doesn’t mean more wins. Even if he isn’t launching…
Read MoreLauri Markkanen 22 Points Full Highlights (1/3/2018)
Man, I’m looking at Lauri Markkanen’s games this season, and he’s consistent as frick. Only 4 single-digit scoring games over the whole season so far? While averaging 15 per game? That’s really nice for a rookie. At least, it feels like it’s really nice. Maybe that’s what everyone does and I just don’t notice it….
Read MoreKelly Olynyk 25 Points Full Highlights (1/3/2018)
Kelly “The Klynyk” Olynyk has done a good job of reinventing his game coming out of college. Almost… too good. I could spend a lot of words trying to get my point across, or I could just say it straight up: I want Olynyk to do more fancy post moves. With footwork and everything. That’s…
Read MoreDelon Wright Career High 25 Points Full Highlights (1/3/2018)
25 points, 13 rebounds, 5 assists, 4 steals, 1 block. Those are prime Olajuwon numbers right there. For real. Who on the Raptors could possibly accumulate those statistical units in a single game? Ibaka? Too old. DeRozan? Can’t rebound. Caboclo? Yeah, if he turned into the next Giannis like Masai so desperately wanted. Delon Wright?…
Read MoreDomantas Sabonis Career High 24 Points Full Highlights (1/3/2018)
The Pacers have may have lost this game, but they provided what the NBA sorely needed: a blueprint on how to beat the Milwaukee Bucks. That blueprint? Take Domantas Sabonis, have him back his ass up into Thon Maker/John Henson/whichever random jabroni is guarding him, and tell him to shoot the ball in the basket….
Read MoreDwight Buycks 14 Points Full Highlights (1/3/2018)
The last time Dwight Buycks was on my channel, back at the end of the 2014-15 season, he was sporting a dyed mohawk type thing and crossing the heck out of Gary Harris. Now Gary Harris is a beast, but back then he kinda sucked, looking worse than Buycks at that point. How the tables…
Read MoreGary Harris Career High 36 Points Full Highlights (1/3/2018)
If you score 20 in the first quarter and 28 in the first half, it is not, I repeat NOT acceptable to finish the game with under 40 points. I’ve been a big proponent of Gary Harris these past few years, and this is how he repays me? By scoring 36 when he could’ve easily…
