These stats look good for Dënniß ßchrööder on the surface, 23 points, a career-high 15 assists. No problem, right? WRONG. As you probably know, this Hawks-Knicks game went into quadruple-overtime, and ßchrööder’s stats were the beneficiary as he got to play for 55 minutes. Basically, according to the tenets of math, his extra playing time…

Ryan Anderson 27 Points Full Highlights (1/29/2017)
I’ve already bemoaned the lack of Ryan Anderson midrange touches this year, and resultingly, the impending lack of a mid-range-ilation when all is said and done. It’s too bad, because he has one of the finest Dirk-esque stepbacks in the league, rivaling even the master himself. That’s not how the Rockets play, though. But out…
Read MoreSeth Curry 24 Points Full Highlights (1/29/2017)
Comparisons between Seth Curry and his brother Stephen Curry are inevitable. They have similar names, they have similar games. But which one is really better? Let’s take a look at the facts. POINTS TONIGHT: Seth scored 24 points tonight, a career high. Stephen scored 0. None. Not even a single point, which is 24 points…
Read MoreErsan Ilyasova 31 Points Full Highlights (1/29/2017)
View post on imgur.com Yeah, I’m reusing the image. Deal with it. I don’t have the proper words for my emotions right now, probably the proper words don’t exist in English, so I need to use internet memes to convey my feelings. Okay? Is that a crime now? Just typing out his name is tough…

This week’s biggest busts: Bucks -6, Hornets -5, Pistons -4, Bulls -4, Clippers -4 This week’s biggest successes: Celtics +5, Thunder +5, Heat +5 1. Golden State Warriors (40-7, 3-1 this week) (last week: #1 [3-0] +0) Losing to the Heat is bad enough. Losing to the Heat because of a Dion Waiters buzzer-beater three…
Read MoreWayne Ellington 19 Points Full Highlights (1/28/2017)
Wayne “Beef W” Ellington has really been making it Wayne during this unexpected seven-game winning streak for the Heat. One could even say that he is solely responsible for the winning streak. That’s right. I’m going there. Not only am I going there, I’m ALREADY there. That’s how hyped I am for Beef W’s sweet-looking…
Read MoreShabazz Muhammad 18 Points Full Highlights (1/28/2017)
DTB’S FUN* FACT** OF THE DAY***: Shabazz Muhammad is shooting nearly 57% on three-pointers in the month of January. For a guy who has always been regarded as a passable shooter and nothing more, this is pretty crazy. He’s doing it on low volume: just thirty attempts, or a little over a two a game,…
Read MoreMichael Beasley 17 Points Full Highlights (1/28/2017)
One of the signs of a team in crisis is seriously wack rotations. Playing time is offered and withdrawn at random, players that start one game may not play the next, a healthy DNP turns into 30-plus minutes turns into 5 minutes turns into another DNP. That is where the Bucks are at right now;…
Read MoreDanilo Gallinari 32 Points Full Highlights (1/28/2017)
When Danilo Gallinari has a good scoring game, you can be sure of one thing: he shot a lot of free throws to get there. He’s has 10 games of 20 points or more, and all but one featured 8 or more foul shots. Most featured 10+. He’s made more free throws this season than…
Read MoreJamal Murray 18 Points Full Highlights (1/28/2017)
One of these good games for Jamal Murray is going to be the good game that propels him out of his extended slump. It’s just a matter of time. He’ll put up some good stats one night, but instead of scoring 3 points the next game on 1 of 7 shooting, he’ll score 20. Then…
