If I knew Rudy Gobert was going to sit out this game, and you asked me how many points Montrezl Harrell was going to score, I would’ve not hesitated for even a second before yelling “FIFTY!” at the top of my lungs. Then I would’ve added “MAKE THAT SIXTY!”. A center rotation consisting of Tony…

Marvin Bagley 20 Points/1 Coach Fired Full Highlights (4/10/2019)
Marvin Bagley (or more accurately, his dad) finally got his wish: for Dave Joerger to be terminated from his position as head coach of the Sacramento Kings. A strange decision by Vlade Divac, to fire the coach that turned one of the jokes of the league into a respectable almost-playoff team, but after seeing the…
Read MoreJonathon Simmons 20 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (4/10/2019)
With the other Simmons sitting out, Jonathon Simmons did his best impersonation, putting up a 20/7/5 statline that definitely feels like something Ben Simmons would do. The only problem was, he hit way too many threes. Ben still hasn’t hit one, but Jonathon forgot that fact (probably was remembering all the practice footage we’ve seen…
Read MoreTrae Young 23 Points/11 Assists Full Highlights (4/10/2019)
The end of a great rookie season for Trae Young. Only one player finished with more assists than him in the whole league, some statpadder named Chucksell Statpadbrook. Think about all the great PGs in the league. There’s a lot of them, but Young out-assisted them all. Similarly, only two players finished with more turnovers…
Read MoreTaurean Prince 23 Points Full Highlights (4/10/2019)
Damn, the season is over already? I realize that I didn’t get to make as many highlights for Taurean Prince as I planned, but I don’t think I even posted a single chapter of my upcoming fantasy/sci-fi epic novel “The Taurean Prince”. Last time I checked, Ferland (the protagonist of this tale) was tasked with…
Read MoreMeyers Leonard 19 Points Full Highlights (4/11/2019)
I still don’t see what’s so wrong with Meyers Leonard that he gets big stretches of DNPs. He looks fine to me. The buckets in this video are buckets that any playoff team would desire. If the Blazers really don’t want him, I, on behalf of the Bucks, offer one (1) Thon Maker for him….
Read MoreJake Layman 19 Points Full Highlights (4/10/2019)
Jake Layman ends the season 50th in total dunks made, tied with Pascal Siakam and Kyle Kuzma. That’s pretty good! Looking at the people above him in the list, it’s a lot of bigs who should be getting more dunks, with only a few other small forwards among the names. And most of those players…
Read MoreEdmond Sumner 22 Points/1 Game-Winning Free Throw Full Highlights (4/10/2019)
Look at that thumbnail. Edmond Sumner knows he’s going to make that last free throw to win the game. He KNOWS it. That is the face of a man who has supreme confidence in his free-throw shoot ability. While Trae Young cowered and flinched at every slight movement, Sumner was a stone-faced assassin. Major non-props…
Read MoreJordan Bell 15 Points Full Highlights (4/10/2019)
Jordan Bell recently drew headlines for getting suspended by the Warriors due to “conduct detrimental to the team”. There was a lot of speculation on what the conduct could be before the full story came out. Did he punch out Kevin Durant? Did he punch out Draymond Green? Did he punch out Steve Kerr? Did…
Read MoreTyler Dorsey 18 Points Full Highlights (4/11/2019)
Tyler Dorsey (who is Greek) had a successful tenure with the Grizzlies after being left for dead with the Hawks. Memphis seems to be a good place for role-players to come in and rehab their image; MarShon Brooks came in, averaged 20, and look at him now! He’s out of the league again, but still….
