Dënniß ßchrööder has seen an increase in his scoring averages every season since he’s been in the league, but when taken per-minute, he’s basically the same player he was in his sophomore season. A little more scoring, same efficiency. If this was just a year-to-year thing, I wouldn’t make any conclusions, but since four years…

Bismack Biyombo Career High 21 Points Full Highlights (1/12/2018)
Bismack Biyombo’s previous career high of 17 came in game 7 of the Raptors’ series against the Heat, a clutch performance that was likely the one that earned him his ridiculous contract. That performance wasn’t anything special offensively, and as you can probably imagine, neither is this one. If you were imagining something akin to…
Read MoreJahlil Okafor 17 Points Full Highlights (1/12/2018)
Somehow, at some point, the narrative on Jahlil Okafor switched from “he’s one of the worst players in the league” to “he’s being unfairly marginalized on the 76ers, he would be a beast on a different team”. And I’m not cherry-picking these opinions. By the middle of his second season, it was agreed by nearly…
Read MoreDonovan Mitchell 35 Points Full Highlights (1/12/2018)
Okay, we’re for really real right now: Donovan Mitchell could be ROTY of the Year. No jokes, no sarcasm. I’m watching Ben Simmons highlights right now, and they’re great, but where are the jumpers? They’re not there. Contrast that with this Mitchell highlight package. Before tonight, before this 35 points, there were still some people…
Read MoreBryn Forbes 18 Points Full Highlights (1/11/2018)
When I think of Bryn “Brynk of Insanity” Forbes, my mind immediately jumps to the other Forbes that I remember being in the NBA (and, as it turns out, the only other Forbes to ever suit up for an NBA team), the immortal Gary Forbes. And once I think of Gary Forbes, I start thinking…
Read MoreMilos Teodosic 10 Points/9 Assists Full Highlights (1/11/2018)
Milos Teodosic had eight assists in the first half of this game. A double-double seemed almost guaranteed. Instead, Milos was left one assist short, and while the Clippers did get the win, it’s the fans that are the real losers here, robbed as they were of a prime Serbian dubby-dubby. Here the people I blame…
Read MoreLonzo Ball 18 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (1/11/2018)
I have to admit that I haven’t been keeping up with all of Lonzo Ball’s family drama. Between his dad and his brothers, all the coverage is too much like reading a tabloid, so I just ignore it all. Basically, if it’s not happening in the NBA or it’s not the Olympics I don’t care…
Read MoreBrandon Ingram 26 Points Full Highlights (1/11/2018)
Did you know that if Brandon Ingram’s last name was actually DeIngram, and then you rearranged the letters in his name, you would get the word “midrange”? That’s pretty creepy to start with, right? Now, what if I told you that Ingram made about a million midrange jumpshots in this game alone, and that shots…
Read MoreKosta Koufos 14 Points Full Highlights (1/11/2018)
Kosta Koufos is lucky I didn’t put “/1 Game-Losing Turnover” in the title of this video or everyone would’ve known straight up as soon as they saw the video that he lost the game for the Kings. Now they have to read all these words to find out that info, and if there’s one thing…
Read MorePascal Siakam 16 Points Full Highlights (1/11/2018)
Pascal Siakam took 10 shots tonight, making 7 of them. A nice performance overall, good for 16 points. But the 3 he missed? All three-pointers, bringing his percentage down to a ludicrous 14 percent on over 2 attempts per game. Is this game evidence enough that he should stick to things inside the arc? He’s…
