Jeff Teague could hardly contain the poeticism bursting from within him. Hastily entering his apartment, he didn’t even bother to turn on the lights before walking briskly to his desk. Once there, he lit the two candles which rested upon the flat wood surface, granting him just enough illumination to begin the task at hand….

OG Anunoby 17 Points Full Highlights (11/12/2018)
If Pascal Siakam is going to be the Kawhi replacement once Kawhi bolts for the Clippers, that precludes OG Anunoby from being the Kawhi replacement once Kawhi bolts for the Clippers. Unless the Raptors have two Kawhi replacements going forward. Then Anunoby and Siakam can take turns filling in the Kawhi role. Anunoby’s already got…
Read MoreT.J. Warren 21 Points Full Highlights (11/12/2018)
Have the days of T.J. “Warren Peace” Warren being marginalized finally come to an end? Teej has gotten 41, 36, and 40 minutes in the last three games. Those are not the minutes totals of a player who is being marginalized. Those are the minutes totals of a player who has finally earned the trust…
Read MoreTerrence Ross 21 Points Full Highlights (11/12/2018)
I was getting the feeling that this season’s version of Terrence Ross is the most aggressive he’s ever been, and it turns out that, as usual, my gut feeling was correct. The stats bear it out: Ross’ shot-taking rate is higher this season than it’s ever been by a considerable margin. I don’t know if…
Read MoreMontrezl Harrell 23 Points/4 Blocks Full Highlights (11/12/2018)
Montrezl “Szskztoon” Harrell just can’t stop styling on other teams. Not only is he styling on them, but he is flexing on them. I don’t know what “flexing” is in the new internet lingo, but Harrell has a lot of muscles so I’m sure he flexes them at least some of the time. Now I’m…
Read MoreShai Gilgeous-Alexander 18 Points Full Highlights (11/12/2018)
I don’t want to sensationalize anything, but when making this highlight video, I sort of got the feeling that Shai Gilgeous-Alexander just completely and totally DAD-DICKED Quinn Cook with his long, lanky midrange game. That is honestly the feeling I got. Maybe it’s sensational and maybe it isn’t, but those are just my feelings and…
Read MoreJ.J. Redick 25 Points Full Highlights (11/12/2018)
My body is ready for the upcoming Philly implosion now that Jimmy Butler is going to be added to the mix. There’s already a weird vibe around the whole organization, and it seems like a dynamic personality like Butler could be the thing that sends the entire thing off the rails. Stay tuned. For now,…
Read MoreDerrick Rose 23 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (11/12/2018)
Everyone already knows it, but I’m going to repeat it so that everyone feels all warm and fuzzy inside: Derrick Rose is playing the best he has since his last All-Star season. Doesn’t that just make you feel happy? If you’re not feeling it, try to forget about the rape allegations. I’ve been doing a…
Read MorePascal Siakam 22 Points Full Highlights (11/12/2018)
I have no idea what’s going on with Pascal Siakam right now. Giving him the Eastern Conference Player of the Week award was probably stretching it a bit, but he’s playing way better than I ever imagined he could. I mean, he was pretty decent last year. A fine player, made better by being part…
Read MoreE’Twaun Moore 30 Points Full Highlights (11/12/2018)
E’Twaun Moore: best second-round pick of the 2011 draft? Trick question! The best second-round pick of the 2011 draft was Isaiah Thomas, though Moore comes in either second or third depending on your opinion of Chandler Parsons. Or fourth, if you really like Bojan Bogdanovic. And I personally really like Jon Leuer, as well as…
