I would like to share with you a statistical tidbit that has been making the rounds on social media lately: Meyers “Seven-Foot-One” Leonard’s last blocked shot came in the 2016-17 season. He played all of last year and so far all of this year without rejecting a single field goal attempt. You’d think that, eventually,…

Kyle Kuzma 24 Points Full Highlights (11/4/2018)
The Lakers are still under .500 10 games into the season, so that means it’s time for LeBron’s favorite time of the year: trade season! As GM of the Lakers, he gets to decide which players stay and which players go. He also gets to handpick a new coach if he wants, but that’s not…
Read MoreMikal Bridges 14 Points/4 Threes Full Highlights (11/4/2018)
It’s time to take Ryan Anderson out behind the arena, gently lower him into a dumpster as he weakly protests, close the lid, put a tire on it, and wait for the elements to do their thing. That might take a while in Phoenix, so if they want to borrow a Milwaukee dumpster so that…
Read MoreShelvin Mack 21 Points Full Highlights (11/4/2018)
If someone (it would have to be me, wouldn’t it) were to compile a list of least-relevant-but-not-terrible NBA players, Shelvin “The Macksturbator” Mack would have to be way up at the top. He’s for sure a competent backup PG, not a starter at all, but a guy who you feel kinda comfortable having on the…
Read MoreSerge Ibaka Career High 34 Points Full Highlights (11/4/2018)
Those who were watching this game were doubtlessly aware of how Serge Ibaka was taking a whole bunch of shots and making them all. He didn’t miss a shot in the first half on 11 tries, if I remember right. Eventually he ended up 15-for-17, which is good, but it’s not perfect. Hard to blame…
Read MoreRondae Hollis-Jefferson 21 Points Full Highlights (11/4/2018)
Every time Rondae Hollis-Jefferson hits one of those spastic short-midrange jumper things that he likes to take, you can see the opposing players deflate. It’s a great tactic for the Nets; have him spaz out and nearly commit three separate offensive fouls before improbably canning a horrible-looking jimbo right in the defender’s face and watch…
Read MoreJustin Jackson Career High 22 Points Full Highlights (11/4/2018)
The Kings were looking really good prior to this game. All their role-players were showing up, De’Aaron Fox was looking like a star in the making, and Nemanja Bjelica was making everyone better. Then came the Bucks, and everyone failed to show up except for this man. Justin Jackson. Him “showing up” often means “scoring…
Read MoreAaron Gordon 26 Points Full Highlights (11/4/2018)
Your buddy DTB really messed this one up bad. I already told you all about my ambitious Halloween NBA trivia contest candy giveaway scheme. Basically, the more NBA-related questions the kiddos got right, the more candy they got. The amount doubled with every question, so like 4 pieces for the third question, 8 for the…
Read MoreRodney McGruder 18 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (11/3/2018)
I was promised that, when Wayne Ellington came back, Rodney McGruder would see a reduction in minutes. That is what was promised to me. I don’t remember who made the promise, but the promise was made and now it has been broken, because McGruder got 34 minutes in this game even though Ellington was back…
Read MoreDewayne Dedmon 15 Points/2 Blocks Full Highlights (11/3/2018)
Fifteen points really isn’t that much for Dewayne Dedmon when you consider his body of work from the previous season. However, given the uncertain center situation is Atlanta this season, I went ahead and made this video because there’s no guarantee that The Cacodedmon AKA Judge Dedd AKA Jumpin’ Jehovah will put together such a…
