The fact that Brandon Sampson and JaKarr Sampson are on the same team is not only confusing for all but the most aware NBA fans, it also taxes my DTB Organizational System© to its absolute limit. This proprietary software package is composed of 100,000 lines of code (varously of Assembly, Rust, CoffeeScript, C, and Haskell), and it was programmed by the most capable and genius computer programmer of our time (me), but it chokes and dies when faced with two dudes with the same last name on the same team. And I can’t debug it because I hit my head really hard on a display of paving stones at the hardware store (all I wanted was a strip of color-changing LED lights for my computer desk) and I suffered some sort of selective amnesia where Haskell doesn’t make any sense to me anymore. My whole video organization structure is in ruins, scattered in random folders on my many hard drives like a digital tornado came through.
So that’s my sad story, but that shouldn’t affect your ability to enjoy these Brandon Sampson highlights that I’ve uploaded for you. While JaKarr Sampson proved to be something of a revelation for the Bulls in the final few games of the season, the only thing that Brandon Sampson revelated is that he doesn’t really produce even when you give him twenty MPG per game. But he did shoot well from the field on limited attempts, so if he’s actually a bad player, it’s not obvious just from watching this video and looking at his stats. The same can’t be said for a lot of end-of-season scrub pickups, who are very obviously bad.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go read the Haskell wikipedia article for the hundredth time and rue the day I decided to use that stupid language over something mainstream like Lisp.
