Andray “Blotch” Blatche was hated during his Wizards days. Absolutely hated. I hated him, you hated him, Wizards fans hated him, his mom hated him. But now that Blotch is part of a team where there are a lot of players who are more of a problem than he is, nobody even cares about him…

Kirk Hinrich 19 Points Full Highlights (2/19/2014)
The Bulls have remained semi-competitive this year despite the passing of Derrick Rose. This is not good news for their fans who, when Derrick went down, wanted nothing more than to tank. What good is a one-and-done playoff appearance when you could get the number 1 pick and draft Kyle Anderson? You can blame Tom…
Read MoreAl Jefferson 29 Points Full Highlights (2/19/2014)
My arms are all tingly, as if pricked by hundreds of tiny, invisible pins. My heart rate is elevated. My hands, clammy and weak, are no longer nimble enough to type with any speed or accuracy. I can’t sit still, but when I get up and move, I’m tired. I try to focus on a…
Read MoreWes Johnson 24 Points Full Highlights (2/19/2014)
Wes Johnson entered the club with one purpose in mind: to locate a suitable honey and take her back to his place. Navigating through the crowds of partiers, he first went to the bar to get some liquid confidence in his system. A short time later, he was on the prowl. It didn’t take him…
Read MorePatty Mills 29 Points Full Highlights (2/19/2014)
New candidate for stupidest catchphrase by a basketball commentator: “G’day mate!” when Patty Mills makes a particularly impressive shot. It doesn’t help that the already goofy sounding Spurs’ commentator’s voice is rendered even more goofy with the addition of a horrible faux-stralian accent. But can you really blame him for picking the lowest hanging fruit…
Read MoreAustin Rivers 14 Points/4 Crossovers Full Highlights (2/19/2014)
Austin Rivers still has it! Those sweet crossovers that you remember from his high-school days? Replace those memories with these new ones, as these ones are against actual NBA competition. Tim Hardaway is still wondering where he went. The commentators were talking about how Rivers wants to add a midrange game during the summer. I…
Read MoreE’Twaun Moore 17 Points Full Highlights (2/18/2014)
Slaving away at my desk, the pile of crumpled papers at my feet grew by the minute. A close observation of my person would reveal a collared shirt marred by stains in the armpits and a forehead glowing with exertion. Of course, I was alone, and there was no one to observe my torment. “You…
Read MoreTyler Zeller 18 Points/15 Rebounds Full Highlights (2/18/2014)
The title of this video is a lie. Yes, a dude named Tyler Zeller scored 18 points. In an NBA game on February 18th. And this video contains highlights of that performance. But they are not full highlights. Blame the Cavaliers’ TV crew, who don’t find it necessary to show free throws if they don’t…
Read MoreNate Wolters 15 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (2/18/2014)
Nate “The Dutch Dominator” Wolters is one of those players who you can’t even figure out why they’re in the NBA. He’s just too white, too Minnesotan, too Midwestern. For folks like Jon Leuer you can kinda see why they made it (hint: it has to do with height) but Wolters resembles that one guy…
Read MoreMike Miller 19 Points/5 Threes Full Highlights (2/18/2014)
The Grizzlies are making less than 5 threes a game this year. In this modern NBA, that’s an extraordinarily low number. Looking at their roster, it’s easy to see why they avoid this aspect of the game. But this lack of outside shooting ability manifests itself as a stagnant and not-very-good offense based around the…
