Jordan McLaughlin 14 Points/9 Assists Full Highlights (3/6/2020)
I still don’t know a whole lot about Jordan McLaughlin, but I do know this: he’s not Jeff Teague. This fact should be extremely comforting for Timberwolves fans, and I’m sure they realize it very clearly by this point. Teague was, according to them, the worst. Just the absolute worst. They hated him. I never…
Read MoreMichael Carter-Williams 17 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (3/6/2020)
I found it funny that the Magic commentators mentioned how Michael Carter-Williams was shooting threes with a lot of confidence. Yeah, of course he shoots them with a lot of confidence. He’s always done that. It doesn’t help him make them, at all, but he’ll let it fly if he wants. MCW is a confident…
Read MoreTrey Lyles 19 Points Full Highlights (3/6/2020)
Trey Lyles has finally started picking up the scoring, but I don’t think there’s any realistic amount of scoring he can do that will make up for the half-season (plus a few games) of not even looking at the rim that he did. If we’re talking amount an unrealistic amount of scoring, sure. If he…
Read MoreDerrick White 19 Points/3 Blocks Full Highlights (3/6/2020)
Everyone was so hyped for Derrick White after his playoff performance last season (was it only last season? feels like an eternity ago now… the only way to mark the passing of time is by measuring how much further White’s hairline has flown up his forehead). That hype was very real, but it is absolutely…
Read MoreDonte DiVincenzo 17 Points Full Highlights (3/6/2020)
The Bucks suck now. This may seem like a hasty proclamation, but believe me: I’m an expert on the topic of the Bucks and sucking. I’ve seen it so often, I know the signs. There are no false positives here: they just suck. And blow. But mostly suck. They can hardly even score 100 points…
Read MoreMikal Bridges 18 Points Full Highlights (3/6/2020)
Don’t look now (actually do look now, I want people to watch this vid), but Mikal Bridges has turned himself into a totally reasonable role-playing starter in the NBA! Aren’t you excited? Why aren’t you excited? Ignore the fact that I, lover of all things role-player and scrub, am not excited at all. That’s my…
Read MoreKevin Huerter 14 Points/11 Assists Full Highlights (3/6/2020)
First off: Kevin Huerter actually only had 10 assists, not 11. He was credited with one where he passed the ball to De’Andre Hunter on a fast break who then quickly dropped it off to John Collins for a score. It was kind of a tight sequence, so I can see how the scorekeepers would…
Read MoreChris Chiozza 13 Points Full Highlights (3/6/2020)
Chiozzanity is happening right now. RIGHT NOW. The thing with these minor -sanity’s is that if you blink, they’re gone. You missed it. So you have to be paying attention at all times. CONSTANT VIGILANCE! There are probably tons of people out there who didn’t even notice that Linsanity was happening before it was over….
Read MoreTimothe Luwawu-Cabarrot 19 Points Full Highlights (3/6/2020)
76ers fans are now being assaulted from all sides. Their team is what is commonly termed a “hot mess express”, and pieces from “The Process”, now dispersed all across the league because Elton Brand wanted to go all in on Josh Richardson and Al Hoford (among other reasons), are flourishing, free from the confines of…
