There was a stretch of this game where, in five possessions for the Hornets, Miles Bridges shot a wide open three on four of them (making two). The other one he got a tough and-one finish. The Lakers were simply not respecting his ability to make an outside shot, I don’t know why because he’s…

Jerami Grant 18 Points/3 Blocks Full Highlights (12/15/2018)
I would normally assume, just by watching the shots that Jerami Grant was taking tonight, that he was attempting to help his teammate Russell Westbrook out by trying to get him as many assists as possible. But that’s not the case! Westbrook only dimed him a few times tonight, and I have to think now…
Read MoreMarco Belinelli 17 Points Full Highlights (12/15/2018)
Marco “Casus Beli” Belinelli might have gotten a little overrated from his stint with the 76ers. He was good for them, definitely, but his reputation got inflated by some of those crazy shots he hit in the playoffs. We all know that tough shots are the shots he makes a living off of, but when…
Read MoreLauri Markkanen 23 Points Full Highlights (12/15/2018)
How long would Lauri Markkanen have to play like garbage before people actually started criticizing him? I’m talking about people other than Bulls fans/writers/media people, since they probably criticize him every time he misses a three. But in terms of the national media, he seems utterly immune. Nothing but positivity surrounding him. I’m not saying…
Read MoreDerrick Rose 25 Points Full Highlights (12/15/2018)
New goal for Derrick Rose: to average more points than he did in his second year in the league. He was at 20.8 that season, good enough for an All-Star selection at 21 years old. Right now he’s at 18.7, which is great for how he’s looked the last couple years, but I feel like…
Read MoreSviatoslav Mykhailiuk 12 Points/4 Assists Full Highlights (12/15/2018)
It’s been a long time since I saw that grainy footage in a nondescript gym of Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk dominating his age-group over in the Ukraine. He was dunking on everybody, he was hitting deep threes, it was just a highlight video of course, but it made him look like a beast. He was probably 16…
Read MoreKris Dunn 24 Points Full Highlights (12/15/2018)
It’s easy to forget that Kris “The Dunnwich Horror” Dunn was the fifth overall pick just two drafts ago. He had a resurgence last year after he got traded to the Bulls, and people started paying attention to him a little bit, but now he’s been injured almost the whole year for when of the…
Read MoreJaVale McGee 19 Points/3 Blocks Full Highlights (12/15/2018)
This game was a never-ending highlight reel for the Lakers. An enterprising highlight compiler (which excludes me) would simply upload this game in its entirety (minus the free-throws) with a title like “SHOWTIME LAKERS FULL HIGHLIGHTS VS HORNETS! LEBRON AND ZO TRIP-DUBS!” and watch the views roll in. It seemed like the Lakers were scoring…
Read MoreLonzo Ball Triple Double 16 Pts/10 Asts/10 Rebs Full Highlights (12/15/2018)
Two triple-doubles in the same game from the same team. Lonzo Ball and JaBroni Lames. 16-10-10 and whatever garbage statpadded numbers JaBroni put up. It may sound impressive, because the last time a pair of Lakers did this was way back when Kareem and Magic were running the showtime Lakers. But I think it was…
Read MoreMarvin Williams 20 Points Full Highlights (12/14/2018)
Are there any Marvin Williams fans still out there? There were probably at least a few when he got drafted, because he was such a high pick, but are any of them continuing to fly high the Williams banner? If you’re out there, leave a comment stating your undying allegiance to W-Marv. I figure that…
