True statophiles will already know this, but for those uninitiated in the sacred art of looking at basketball-reference for five hours a day, let me clue you in: Ed Davis is the best offensive rebounder in the league this year. On a per minute basis, at least. Andre Drummond is probably still a little better…

Malik Beasley 19 Points Full Highlights (1/25/2019)
Malik Beasley should be in consideration for the “UPWSTPPGFTFITC” award this season. This is not an award that normally gets a lot of attention from the mainstream media, but role-player fetishists such as myself are always eager to see who will win it. In case you haven’t heard of the award before and don’t know…
Read MoreMason Plumlee 16 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (1/25/2019)
Attention Nikola Jokic fans: Jokic might not have played this game due to suspension (he ran off the bench last game and was trying to fight refs and fans [and scorekeepers (for not giving him more assists)]), but you can get at least 50% of the official Nikola Jokic experience by watching this video of…
Read MoreP.J. Tucker 18 Points Full Highlights (1/25/2019)
Unlike the last video I made, which featured Jeff Green having what was clearly NOT A REVENGE GAME against the Magic, this game by P.J. “Peej” Tucker against the Raptors was very obviously a REVENGE GAME. Tucker was a rookie with the Raptors in the 2006-07 season, at the age of 21. He played seventeen…
Read MoreJeff Green 24 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (1/25/2019)
All indicators point to this game being a REVENGE GAME for Jeff Green. However, I have evidence that this game was not a REVENGE GAME from Jeff Green against his former team, the Orlando Magic. This evidence will be outlaid for all to see and draw their own conclusions from. First piece of evidence: Jeff…
Read MoreOmri Casspi 18 Points/5 Dunks Full Highlights (1/25/2019)
The title of this video promises five dunks from Omri Casspi, and I stand by that promise. There are, indeed, five slam dunks in this video. You can verify that for yourself. However, I do not make any promises as to the quality of these dunks. In fact, I will just put the plain truth…
Read MoreDanny Green 22 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (1/25/2019)
In this description, I will hypothesize that Danny Green is a “winning player”, that is, a player whose presence on the court is so positive, taken as a whole, that whatever team he is on cannot help but win lots of game. Let’s got on to it! Here we go: Danny Green is a winning…
Read MorePascal Siakam 22 Points Full Highlights (1/25/2019)
Pascal “MIP But Replace the I with a V” Siakam’s late-game heroics were not enought to beat the Rockets. The Raptors came almost all the way back thanks to Siakam and the incredible boneheadedness of Eric Gordon, but you know who ruined it all for everybody? Kawhi Leonard. That last shot was the worst thing…
Read MoreKenneth Faried 21 Points Full Highlights (1/25/2019)
In a development that is surprising no one except for Kenny Atkinson, Kenneth Faried is thriving in Houston. All they needed was a big body to run around and dunk things, and that’s exactly what they got. A match made in heaven. Faried is who he is at this point, since I don’t truly believe…
Read MoreDe’Aaron Fox 22 Points Full Highlights (1/25/2019)
Before we get started on talking about De’Aaron Fox, I just want to say, I’m super DUPER excited to see Bruno Caboclo back in the league and chucking shots that he can’t really make at an incredible rate. I was hoping for a sweet revenge game on the team that discarded him last year (that…
