Dragan Bender Career High 23 Points Full Highlights (2/10/2018)

Nearly everyone (including me), minus some home-country supporters, has been critical of Dragan Bender’s development up until this point. Most acknowledge that he’s young and was raw to begin with (and now his team sucks, which doesn’t do him any favors), but that didn’t fully excuse the anemic production and timidity on the court. What…

Nikola Mirotic 21 Points/5 Blocks Full Highlights (2/10/2018)

21 points, 16 rebounds, 5 blocks. That’s more of an “Anthony Davis” statline than a “Nikola Mirotic” statline, but we’re living in crazy world where nothing makes since anymore, and Mirotic now plays a traditional power forward role instead of the “chuck threes like a shooting guard” role he played in Chicago. As usual, I’m…

Tomas Satoransky Career High 25 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (2/10/2018)

Before we get out our pitchforks and crucify (yeah, I know crucifying usually happens with crosses but I bet it can be done with pitchforks) Bobby Portis for flagrant-2ing Tomas Satoransky near the end of this one, let me say that he got mostly ball on his block attempt. Satoransky landed horribly, but it wasn’t…

Mario Hezonja 23 Points Full Highlights (2/10/2018)

When Mario Hezonja scored 28 points while hitting 8 threes a couple months ago, we knew it wasn’t sustainable. It was fun, and amazing to watch, but not something we could expect out of him on a regular basis. This, on the other hand, is totally sustainable. He could do this every game if he…

Robin Lopez 19 Points Full Highlights (2/9/2018)

So Robin Lopez is still in Chicago even though pretty much every playoff-contending team would have loved to trade a mediocre pick + a mediocre prospect for him. Lopez has spent a fair chunk of his career on losing teams, so he’s probably faring okay, but still, I thought for sure he would be moved….

Jerian Grant 14 Points/11 Assists Full Highlights (2/9/2018)

The way Bulls fans gripe about Jerian Grant, you would think that every shot he takes is either a stepback eighteen-footer or a three-pointer chucked after dribbling around mindlessly for fifteen seconds, and that every assist credited to him is actually a mistake on the part of the scorer’s table. Maybe those things are true…

Luc Richard Mbah a Moute 14 Points Full Highlights (2/9/2018)

Luc Richard Mbah a Moute’s transition into a three-point shooter began when he landed in Philadelphia to help mentor Joel Embiid (who now has full working knowledge of the female anatomy courtesy of Luc’s veteran wisdom), but this year is finally the year he broke through and became a true three-point threat both in percentage…

Willie Cauley-Stein 19 Points Full Highlights (2/9/2018)

DTB’S OFFICIAL PROS FOR PUTTING “/4 JUMPERS” IN THE TITLE OF THIS VIDEO: -Everybody would know that Willie Cauley-Stein hit four jumpers in this video -The video would get maybe fifty more views over the course of its life -It contributes to the perception that Cauley-Stein can hit jumpers DTB’S OFFICIAL CONS FOR PUTTING “/4…

Montrezl Harrell 18 Points Full Highlights (2/9/2018)

Montrezl “Mon-Trezzle” Harrell has succeeded Blake Griffin as as high-flying, all-dunks power forward of the future in Clipperland. There’s just two problems with that statement. First, Harrell only had two dunks in this game, so calling him “all-dunks” is like calling me “all-fast-break-layups” because there was one time where I actually converted a fast-break layup…

Reggie Bullock 19 Points Full Highlights (2/9/2018)

Just like Larry Nance Jr. wept tears of pure joy when he found out that he was getting traded to the Cavaliers, Reggie Bullock probably wept tears of pure joy when he found out that Tobias Harris was getting traded away from the Pistons. That one player represented the single main impediment to Bullock getting…
