Kevin Martin 26 Points Full Highlights (3/1/2014)

The Timberwolves have disappointed yet again. Their fans will claim that injuries are the main culprit. They may be right. But when you start mentioning how long Chase Budinger has been out you sound really desperate. You don’t see me blaming the Bucks’ record on Pachulia’s injury. I can see their point, though, at least…

Mike Scott 20 Points Full Highlights (3/2/2014)

Lying in wait on the moon’s surface, I am perfectly positioned to intercept prayers sent from earth to God up in the sky. The internet connection really sucks, and it’s a hassle to be artificially hibernated during the brutally warm periods of lunar day, but the benefits of my position vastly outweigh the negatives. And,…

Kyle Korver 18 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (3/2/2014)

Kyle Korver’s streak of 127 straight games with a made three is pretty great. That’s a lot of hot tamales. But is it the kind of record that anyone will care about once it’s over? No one cared about Dana Barros’ record until it was close to being broken. And when I look back on…

David West 25 Points Full Highlights (3/2/2014)

David West is the third best player on a contender, yet there is almost no hype around him. Is it because he’s kinda old? Or has an unathletic, below-the-rim game? Maybe his stupid beard is to blame? Whatever the cause, I’ve been trying my hardest to get more people to pay attention to this all-star…

Thaddeus Young 29 Points Full Highlights (3/2/2014)

As one of three NBA-caliber players on the Sixers, Thaddeus “The Mad Thadder” Young is essentially given free reign to do whatever he wants on the court. And boy howdy, does he do it all. Three pointers, midrange, advancing the ball, ISOs, rack attacks, I wouldn’t be surprised in the least if he took thirty…

Gerald Green 33 Points Full Highlights (3/2/2014)

There are lots of things that could be considered culminations of human achievement. Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel paintings. The Pyramids of Giza. Beethoven’s 9th. Sun Tzu’s Art of War. The Burj Khalifa. The moon landing. Some of these are individual accomplishments, some are group efforts displaying humanity’s limitless potential for cooperation. These and many others are…

Tobias Harris Career High 31 Points Full Highlights (3/2/2014)

This was it. This was the last real chance for the 76ers to win a game this year. They have now lost 14 in a row. There are a few games against bad teams still remaining on their schedule, but they don’t get to play the Magic or the Bucks again, the only two teams…

Marcus Thornton 25 Points Full Highlights (3/1/2014)

Terrence Jones 22 Points/7 Dunks Full Highlights (3/1/2014)

In this game, Terrence Jones’ first four made baskets were all dunks. I admit that I started getting my hopes up after the third one, thinking that maybe he dunked every one of his ten made field goals. Such an occurrence would have made me whole and completed my life. Ten made baskets, all dunks,…

Zach Randolph 23 Points/14 Rebounds Full Highlights (3/1/2014)

Pulling up to the Krispy Kreme drive-through, Zach Randolph knew exactly what his order would be: “A dozen dozens of your original glazed, please.” Proceeding to the pickup window, Zach made it clear to the disinterested worker that the donuts were not all for himself – they were in fact for him and his teammates….
