I think Joe Ingles spoiled us all by shooting 44% from deep over the past two seasons. This season, he’s shooting 39%, which is pretty good, but it just seems terrible compared to the last two seasons.

Michael Carter-Williams 13 Points Full Highlights (12/6/2018)
In his rookie year, a thirteen-point game from Michael Carter-Williams would have been roughly the fiftieth-best game of his season. It would have been completely unnotable.

Read MoreJake Layman Career High 24 Points Full Highlights (12/6/2018)
Big congratulations to Jake Layman for avoiding the dreaded “MCW-itis”, the condition where you peak in your first ever NBA game.
