Maurice Harkless 19 Points Full Highlights (1/7/2018)

In between this game, where he scored nineteen points, and the game on December 23 where he dropped 22 on the Lakers, Moe Harkless has gotten the following statlines: Vs Phi: 8/2/2/1/1 At Atl: 6/1/0/1/0 At Chi: 0/1/0/1/0 At Cle: 3/1/1/0/1 Sure, his average minutes per game was in the upper teens for that span,…

Manu Ginobili 26 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (1/7/2018)

I said last game that I was worried that it might be the last time we saw vintage Manu Ginobili. Forget I said that. That was stupid of me to say. It was stupid of me to insinuate that Father Time could ever claim him. After tonight, I think he can play as long as…

Steven Adams 18 Points Full Highlights (1/7/2018)

I’m thinking about the center situation in the NBA right now, and I’m like “Steven Adams is right there in that second tier of centers and he’s only 24”. I’m thinking that, and it’s freaking me out a little bit. He’s averaging 13 and 10 basically (I’m giving him a bump in rebounds because Westbrook…

Dennis Schröder 27 Points Full Highlights (1/7/2018)

First Lieutenant Dënniß ßchrööder, Tank Commader, is looking to earn the dubious “best player on the worst team” title in addition to his prestigious military rank. Last season the title went to Brook Lopez, who now sucks on the second worst team in the league. ßchrööder doesn’t seem likely to leave the Hawks any time…

Brandon Ingram 20 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (1/7/2018)

It’s a good thing the Lakers won this game. One more loss and I felt like the whole thing was going to explode. The players, the coaches, the media dudes, the concession workers, the towel bots, the front office, Magic Johnson, it was all a gigantic powderkeg just waiting for a spark. I don’t know…

Josh Jackson 17 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (1/7/2018)

Is Josh Jackson the NBA player who most looks like his team name? There are a few other candidates, so we’re gonna figure this out and find the truth. First off, Jackson’s hair looks like a sun. Kind of. It’s round like a sun, but it’s not orange like a sun. If he dyed his…

Donovan Mitchell 27 Points Full Highlights (1/7/2018)

27 points on 25 shots for Donovan “Prince of ‘hell” Mitchell. Purists may chafe at the the inefficiency, but I figure if your point total is more than your shots total, you’re all good. Especially if you played before the three-point line was introduced. That’s not Mitchell, but it’s still all good. All good except…

Dragan Bender Career High 20 Points/6 Threes/3 Blocks Full Highlights (1/7/2018)

Dragan Bender walked through the hazy forest, his eyes dazzled by the deep golden sunlight which refracted off the mist to create a permeating glow. His footsteps fell quietly on the lush, impossibly green grass, and he wondered how he had gotten to this place. Just a minute ago, he had been walking off the…
