The Pelicans are 9-7 since Zion Williamson made his debut a little over a month ago. This is what’s called a “playoff push”, and it’s what you have to do when you’ve got J.J. Redick on your team and he hasn’t missed the playoffs even once over his 13-year career and if you miss the…

Jordan Poole 17 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (3/1/2020)
February is officially over, so the final February stats for Jordan Poole are in: 13 points and 3 assists on 45% shooting. Those are great numbers for a guy who was (and still is) on track to have one of the worst shooting performances in modern NBA history. And now Poole has carried over that…
Read MoreBrandon Knight 16 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (3/1/2020)
Brandon Knight has now had four double-digit scoring games in a row, and with each “good” game he has (remember that “good” is relative term), my feelings towards him go from “I’m sad that he’s struggling in the league after being so good pre-injury” to “I’m happy that he’s rounding back into form.” That definitely…
Read MoreChristian Wood 20 Points Full Highlights (3/1/2020)
It’s crazy how much more fun Christian Wood is to watch than nowadays Blake Griffin, his rival at the power forward spot for the Pistons. Well, they were rivals until Griffin went down with an injury. Now Wood is unrivaled. Back to the comparison. Griffin definitely played his heart out every time he was on…
Read MoreMychal Mulder 17 Points Full Highlights (3/1/2020)
Mychal Mulder (whose first name, suspiciously, has the same odd spelling as Klay’s dad…where’d I put that tinfoil hat?) improved on his fourteen-point performance yesterday to score seventeen points tonight. If there were any questions as to how legit Mulder was after last night, those questions have been thoroughly erased now. And if those questions…
Read MoreTorrey Craig 17 Points Full Highlights (3/1/2020)
Out of my many attempts to start viral hashtag sensations, I have to say that my #TorreyCraigIsWelsh campaign has to have been the least successful. Even I didn’t use it, except in, like, one or two video descriptions. As far as I’m aware, no tweets were ever tweeted in support of the hashtag, which (rather…
Read MoreDavis Bertans 29 Points/8 Threes Full Highlights (3/1/2020)
Now that it is 100% confirmed that Davis Bertans is one of NBA’s best three-point shooters, not just out of big men but out of EVERYBODY, and will be seriously coveted by all thirty teams in the league once he becomes available, I am finding myself annoyed that he’s already 27 years old. He’s in…
Read MoreShake Milton Career High 39 Points/7 Threes Full Highlights (3/1/2020)
Shake Milton opened his eyes, took one look at the unfamiliar surroundings, and wearily closed his eyes again. He knew he was dreaming, and attempted to will himself into waking up. However, when he next opened his eyes, the scene hadn’t changed, and there was still the hardness of stone against his back rather than…
Read MoreSeth Curry 27 Points Full Highlights (3/1/2020)
Tonight was supposed to be the night that Stephen Curry finally returned from his injury (incurred as a result of getting sat on by Aron Baynes, damn, what even happened to that dude it’s like when he injured one of the league’s most beloved superstars he sent himself on a downward trajectory along with Curry),…
Read MoreNorman Powell 24 Points Full Highlights (3/1/2020)
Norman Powell is like the original success story of the Masai-era Raptors. They drafted him super late in the draft and he quickly developed into a serviceable player. After some ups and downs in his career, Powell is solidly on the “up” side of the equation this season, but his success has been overshadowed by…
