I’m not very good at doing free-agency speculation/analysis because I’m only vaguely aware of each teams’ salary cap situation. I’m also only vaguely aware of what a salary cap even is and how it relates to player salaries. Basically, the only thing I know for sure is that teams can’t spend infinite money unless they…

Derrick Favors 18 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (3/13/2019)
This video was made basically to commemorate a career-high in assists for Derrick Favors, who honestly looked like Lamar Odom 2.0 based on this one game. He was making good decisions with the ball, whether looking to score or looking to pass, and who cares if one of his assists was actually an airballed floater?…
Read MoreAlex Len 20 Points Full Highlights (3/13/2019)
Another good game for Alex Len. See this, Suns fans? This is what you’re missing out on: a hard-dunking, sweet-shooting Ukrainian who isn’t a bust at all, but is, in fact, a valued role-player on an up-and-coming young team. A role-player that would be a nice fit on your struggling and directionless franchise. Oh well….
Read MoreTrae Young 22 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (3/13/2019)
A 22-point, 8-assist statline sounds pretty okay for Trae Young until you realize that he had double the points and double the assists in his 49-point, 16-assist game on March 1. Then, this performance seems like worthless garbage. You could watch this video twice and still not get the same amount of hot Young action…
Read MoreSpencer Dinwiddie 25 Points Full Highlights (3/13/2019)
I will take issue with anybody who continues to allege that Spencer Dinwiddie had a “good” season last season. He had an okay season. Maybe it was good from a raw stats perspective and from a “repeatedly making deep, clutch three-pointers” perspective, but it was below average when it comes from a “scoring efficiently” perspective….
Read MoreThomas Bryant 21 Points Full Highlights (3/13/2019)
Well, this is embarrassing. All this time that Thomas Bryant has been the starting center(basically until a few weeks ago) I was under the assumption that he was getting big minutes. But a closer look at his game log indicates that he usually doesn’t even get twenty minutes per contest. That actually makes sense given…
Read MoreJohn Collins 27 Points Full Highlights (3/13/2019)
The Hawks are unexpectedly winning some games. They’re not winning “a lot” of games, but they’re winning “some” games, which is many more games than they’re supposed to be winning. And I would like to put forward this hypothesis for your scrutiny: John Collins is the reason they win games. Here is the evidence I…
Read MoreC.J. Miles 33 Points/8 Threes Full Highlights (3/13/2019)
Raptors fans must be losing it right now. Not only has Jonas Valanciunas been a complete beastcake his entire time in Memphis, not only has Delon Wright had some very good games for his new team, not only has Marc Gasol been underwhelming in his first few games in Toronto, but now C.J. Miles has…
