Who else is ready for the relentless praise that Jae Crowder will get during the playoffs for being a “steadying veteran presence” for the Jazz? If he even has one good game, we’ll hear all about how he replaced the immature, not-quite-ready-for-the-big-time Rodney Hood with the gritty, no-nonsense, defense-first Crowder. I can already hear it…

Donovan Mitchell 28 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (4/8/2018)
We’re rapidly approaching the time when I can no longer upload Donovan Mitchell highlights to my channel. Realistically, he’s probably been too good for a while now, but next season, when he’s no longer a rookie, I’ll have no choice but to hand him off to those other channels. I expect him to have some…
Read MoreC.J. Miles 22 Points Full Highlights (4/8/2018)
Every time I make a C.J. Miles video, I’m forced to think about the Instagram model who shares his name (but definitely doesn’t share his gender), and then I’m forced to think about how my attempt to make a career as an Instagram model has been nothing but a total failure. The previous step I…
Read MoreDanuel House 22 Points/3 Dunks Full Highlights (4/8/2018)
The Suns have punched their ticket for worst record in the league with this loss to the Warriors. The tank is over, as their fast start proved insurmountable to other teams. Does this mean they can bring Devin Booker back? See if he can beat Kobe’s 81? If anything, they should have done that tonight,…
Read MoreMalik Monk 22 Points Full Highlights (4/8/2018)
I’m trying to imagine that average sound made by Hornets fans after Malik Monk had yet another good game in direct defiance of Steve Clifford. There’s probably a lot of exasperated sigh in there, some grumbling, sarcastic hand clapping, some head-shaking which makes a slight whooshing noise, “ugh”, “damn”, “choke on my chode Clifford” is…
Read MoreKobi Simmons 20 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (4/8/2018)
Kobi “Kobe Bryant” Simmons took the next step towards reaching the level of his namesake by scoring 20 points in a totally 100-percent officially sanctioned NBA game. The first step was playing in the NBA, the second was scoring points in the NBA, and this is the third step. The next step, the fourth and…
Read MoreTyler Ennis Career High 22 Points Full Highlights (4/8/2018)
I kinda get the feeling that Lakers fans aren’t too impressed with Tyler Ennis this year. He did some stuff last year for them, in similar conditions to what he’s facing now (losing conditions), but for most of this season he’s been invisible. Not literally, but metaphorically. This game will probably do little to change…
Read MoreSemi Ojeleye 13 Points Full Highlights (4/8/2018)
I did it. It took a lot of toiling in the video editor, but I managed to nudge the duration of this video over the 1-minute mark. Semi Ojeleye didn’t give me a lot to work with, the Celtics TV people didn’t either (where were the replays you fartnuggets?), but I persevered. This is, perhaps,…
Read MoreTaurean Prince 33 Points/7 Threes Full Highlights (4/8/2018)
If I could choose one player currently active for the Hawks to score 33 points, Taurean Prince would be my last choice at this point. This is his 5th 30-point game. It’s amazing and probably one of the most underrated storylines of the year that he’s able to score this well, but it’s not getting…
Read MoreOG Anunoby 21 Points Full Highlights (4/8/2018)
OG Anunoby, once upon a time, was the talk of the league for being an unexpectedly good rookie on one of the best teams in the association. Raptors fans were gloating endlessly about how they found a gem near the bottom of the first-round, and I don’t blame them. If my rookie was the league…
