You know what would be way more interesting and entertaining then a Jeff Teague highlight video where he scores 22 points by way of ten free throws? A Marquis Teague highlight video. Any kind of Marquis Teague highlight video at all. “Marquis Teague 10 Points/2 Assists/1 Butt-Scratch Full Highlights” would be the kind of video that people flock to see. Nobody is flocking to see Jeff Teague. Even the Jeff Teague nuthugger Hubie Brown (who was really hugging Teague’s nuts while commentating this game) would not be likely to seek out this video, and if he did, he definitely wouldn’t be able to sit through its whole runtime. He would probably fall asleep.
I just looked it up, and Marquis is on Memphis’ G-League affiliate, which is conveniently located in Memphis as well. With Ja Morant out for at least last night’s game, there was no reason why they couldn’t call Marquis up, have him get some real NBA playing time, and maybe even play him enough minutes to earn his very own DTB highlight video. Marquis is averaging 13/2/3 on 48% shooting in the Gatorade League, which I think is pretty good for a G-League point guard.
(By the way, Josh Jackson is beasting for the same team, putting up 23/9/4/2/2 on 50% shooting and 43% from three. Just saying. I only rounded those numbers up a little bit.)
However, cruel fate has conspired that Marquis Teague remains absent from my channel while Jeff Teague burdens me with his existence. Can we please send Jeff to the G-League as punishment?
