Attention pizza purveyors: if you offer pesto as one of your toppings, you should put in big letters next to its location in the list “WARNING: MAY OVERPOWER THE ENTIRE REST OF THE PIZZA WITH ITS BASILINESS”. At my old pizza place (RIP), I liked getting pesto with pepperoni. That’s it. Two toppings, and it…

Josh Jackson 18 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (12/10/2018)
The so-called “sophomore slump” is real for Josh Jackson. There are a lot of ways to interpret stats, to manipulate stats to create new stats, to discover hidden truth in stats that may disagree with the eye test. For Jackson, I don’t think I can find a single stat that shows him in a positive…

Man, how do you win the jump ball with the 5 seconds left with a chance to tie or win the game and then not even recover the ball because you hit it way too hard? The Clippers got free throws out of it, and that was the game. I don’t blame Troy Daniels for…

Before, it wasn’t so urgent, because the Nuggets still had most of their players, but the injuries are really piling up. Jokic is the last above-average starting player remaining besides Jamal Murray…

Furkan “The Motherfurker” “Turkish Delight” “Korverkmaz” “Furky Town” Korkmaz has probably retracted his trade request by now. I don’t think it was ever really confirmed in the first place, but assuming he did actually make it, he’s got to realize that his circumstances have changed dramatically for the better since then. He’s getting to play…
Read MoreLuke Kennard Career High 28 Points Full Highlights (12/10/2018)
The Pistons need a shooter. Just one. They don’t really have any right now and it’s costing them as they fall in the standings. Langston Galloway, prior to tonight, was probably their best active one. That just doesn’t cut it, maybe in 1978, but not in 2018. Note: I’m not counting Blake Griffin even though…
