It’s not fair. Marcus Morris pretty much has his own team where he can do whatever he wants (well, he and Julius Randle share “do whatever you want” duties), while Markieff Morris has to come off the bench and be marginalized by “superior” talent. His stats aren’t the worst thing I’ve ever seen, for some…

Jonas Valanciunas 21 Points Full Highlights (12/16/2019)
I am sick and tired of this new narrative (being pushed by the simpletons at ESPN, no doubt) that Jonas Valanciunas is “struggling”. No. He’s not struggling. What is happening, and this has been happening his whole career so no one should be surprised, is that he is being held down by incompetent and racist…

It’ll be overshadowed by some other impressive wins that happened tonight (that I don’t know anything about, I don’t think the Bucks even played), but Ja Morant and the Grizzlies just pulled out a really nice victory over Jimmy BUTTler and the cHeat.

One of the stats that was making the rounds on social media in the last few days was this troubling one about Darius Garland (probably more troubling about the Cavaliers in general, actually): he’s leading the Cavaliers in assists at 2.9 per game. Are you troubled? You should be troubled, due to the troubling nature…
Read MoreNorman Powell 26 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (12/16/2019)
Is this it? Is it really happening? Is Norman Powell finally becoming a consistent contributor who can be counted on to support the Raptors’ winning efforts on a game-to-game basis? Or has years of eating nothing but Hot Pockets and Pop-Tarts modified my brain chemistry so severely that my thoughts have become nothing more than…
