Roy Hibbert has not started out the year well, shooting sub-40% and generally not playing up to his contract. What better way to reverse that trend than to get a flippin’ TRIPLE-DOUBLE???? Hibbs turned Robin Lopez into his personal block provider last night, eradicating eight of the popcorn-haired center’s shots alone. Jason Smith was also…

Brian Roberts 13 Points Full Highlights (11/20/2012)
Brian Roberts appears to be the best undrafted rookie this season. He’s kind of old for a rookie (26) but he’s got some experience playing in Europe and Israel, so I’m pretty sure that puts him in the “experienced veteran” category. He might even be better than Austin Rivers, which is both funny and sad…
Read MoreNick Young 23 Points/Career High 4 Assists Full Highlights (11/20/2012)
I was just kidding about the career high part. But it very easily could be true, as Nick Young has become a running joke among NBA fans for his total unwillingness to share the orange. But who needs assists when you can lead the league in having an awesome fro? (Bynum doesn’t count until he…
Read MoreStephen Curry 31 Points/9 Assists Full Highlights (11/19/2012)
Quick quiz: which part of Stephen Curry is made of glass? A) Face B) Ankles C) Colon D) None of the above as he is mostly carbon. Answer: B) Ankles! Curry has glass ankles and he can barely walk out the front door without thousands of ankle shards spraying out in every direction. You can…
Read MoreShaun Livingston 10 Points/4 Assists Full Highlights (11/19/2012)
Everyone knows that sad tale of Shaun Livingston. What’s that? You haven’t heard it? Well sit down, my child, and listen. Long ago in a land far away, a land known as Charlotte, Sir Livingston went up for a layup, and, oh god, what happened to his leg, HIS KNEE, it’s all wrong, all wrong,…
Read MoreJaVale McGee 15 Points Full Highlights (11/19/2012)
While not tooling about Denver on his Segway or attempting to give away free Chipotle burritos, Javale Mcgee likes to make people look foolish with his wide array of devastating post moves. “People” usually being McGee himself. But here against Memphis he supplies the go-ahead put-back, and receives plenty of dap from his teammates. Anyone…
Read MoreDeMarcus Cousins 29 Points/3 Assists Full Highlights (11/18/2012)
We’ve all heard bad things about DeMarcus Cousins. He’s a headcase. He’s a cancer. He’s a locker-room distraction. He can’t play in a team system. He can’t shoot. Well I’ve got some things to say about him too. He’s tall. He can jump. He can run. He has full use of his arms. See? Those…
Read MoreAndray Blatche 22 Points Full Highlights (11/18/2012)
Andray “All I wanted was a triple-double” Blatche puts on an amazing performance against the Sacramento Kings. 11 of 12 shooting, an assist, 2 rebounds, and that’s it. No other entries in the box score. I’ll admit that I’m pretty impressed, too bad no one will ever remember anything about him other than his misplaced…
Read MoreJose Calderon 18 Assists Full Highlights (11/18/2012)
Assists are funny things. What is an assist? Per Wikipedia: “An assist is attributed to a player who passes the ball to a teammate in a way that leads to a score by field goal.” Okay, that’s great. Jose Calderon picked up 18 of the little bastards. No problem, right? WRONG. Calderon was the benefactor…
Read MoreE’Twaun Moore 16 Points/4 Assists Full Highlights (11/18/2012)
So I guess you can put punctuation in people’s names. This is news to me. E’Twaun M’oore is one of the people who display this trait. The apostrophe apparently imparts some kind of superior basketball skill, since my cousin Etwaun can barely dribble and has the shooting form of a middle school girl. This E’Twaun…
