“There is such torment in my soul,” Taj Gibson whispered to his empty apartment, lit only by a single candle on his desk. He could feel the emotions within him bursting at the seams, begging to be released through the medium of poetry. He pulled to him a crisp sheet of rose-colored stationery and one…

Tyler Ulis 13 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (1/29/2018)
Remember when Tyler Ulis almost looked like a starting-quality point guard at the end of last year? Sure, he would have been on the very low end of “starting-quality”, but I won’t ever forget the time he put up a 34/9/9 statline while making 15 of 22 shots. For a rookie whose height is maybe…
Read MoreJayson Tatum 20 Points Full Highlights (1/29/2018)
I could deal with the Celtics broadcast not showing replays of Daniel Theis hitting three-pointers. That’s understandable. All three-pointers roughly look the same. The fans don’t necessarily need to see multiple angles of a guy shooting a jumpshot from 24 feet away. But this…this is inexcusable. Jayson Tatum showed it all last night. He only…
Read MoreDaniel Theis 11 Points/3 Threes Full Highlights (1/29/2018)
After making twelve three-pointers in his first 48 games as NBA player, Daniel Theis poured in three of them against the unsuspecting Nuggets en route to 111-110 Celtics victory. Basically, he forcibly rammed his authentic German knackwurst right down the throat of any and every nearby defender. Since he only scored eleven points, which is…
Read MoreMason Plumlee 16 Points/5 Dunks Full Highlights (1/29/2018)
Mason Plumlee is the pinkest dude ever. If there’s a dude whose skin gets pinker while playing the game of basketball, I don’t know about him. It’s like, when he steps on the court, he all of a sudden has pure marinara sauce running through his veins and his whole body looks like a giant…
Read MoreTrey Lyles 20 Points Full Highlights (1/29/2018)
Sometimes I wonder if aliens came and abducted the real version of Trey Lyles, and, in the spirit of intergalactic hospitality, gave us a cloned version of him that was way better at basketball. Because Lyles really, really sucked in his second year, and now he’s legit good. It wouldn’t even be that hard for…
Read MoreNikola Jokic 24 Points Full Highlights (1/29/2018)
The Nuggets scorekeepers really like giving Nikola Jokic some iffy assists, don’t they? He’s averaging almost 6 assists per game at home, but only 4.5 on the road. The culprit is all those handoffs he does with Murray/Harris/Barton. Some of them are legit, but some of them really aren’t. Like the last clip of this…
Read MoreT.J. Warren 24 Points Full Highlights (1/29/2018)
When the season’s over, I’m gonna take all the T.J. Warren highlights I made, which will probably be around 30 or 35 of them, stitch them all together, and upload the resultant hour-long video to Pornhub. I may or may not include cheesy porno music. Maybe I will upload a version with and a version…
Read MoreDario Saric 19 Points Full Highlights (1/29/2018)
Dario Saric had been hitting his three-ball at a pretty good rate the last few games, and you could tell in this one. He wasn’t hesitating at all! Problem was, the threes weren’t going in, and he didn’t stop shooting them. He ended up 0-8, a significant contributor to the team-wide brickfest that ended with…
Read MoreMyles Turner 22 Points/4 Threes Full Highlights (1/29/2018)
I hadn’t really noticed that he was gone in the first place (Sabonis is bae), but Myles Turner is back! Somehow the news of his injury had escaped me; I figured I wasn’t doing highlights of him because he was in a slump of epic proportions. Nope! He was injured, and now he’s back, and…
