Everything that Terrence Ross does in his career will be viewed through the distorting lens of his 51-point game. It’s like Tony Delk; he was not a notable player in any respect except that one time he got super hot for a whole game. Or Brandon Jennings. Every time I watch that dude I think…

Shaun Livingston 21 Points Full Highlights (3/8/2015)
Am I the only one who gets uneasy on the basketball court after knowing what happened to Shaun Livingston’s knee? It’s like I don’t even want to jump or do any sudden moves, lest patellar pandemonium ensues. Granted, my vertical leap is not especially great, and my moves are not exactly explosive, but still. I…
Read MoreReggie Jackson 25 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (3/8/2015)
Reggie Jackson has his own team now. All the reasons that were offered as explanations for his suckiness in OKC no longer apply. Except for the biggest one, the one that keeps Pistons fans awake at night as their FO mulls a large contract offer. That he just plain sucks. Maybe sucks isn’t the right…
Read MoreAustin Rivers 22 Points Full Highlights (3/8/2015)
Those who thought that Austin Rivers had turned a corner after his 28-point explosion a few weeks ago were surely disappointed with his followup performances. A combined 9-for-36, 25 percent, over the next 6 games. Yet he still continues to earn minutes, and I don’t even think it’s nepotism in this case. The Clipper’s depth…
Read MoreDante Exum 14 Points/4 Threes Full Highlights (3/8/2015)
Dante “Wrecks ‘Em” Exum is kind of a bust right now. I’m just putting it out there, he could easily be good in a few years. However, at this exact moment in time, the ratio of his usefulness as a basketball player to his draft position equates out to him being a buster. Right now…
Read MoreKhris Middleton Career High 30 Points Full Highlights (3/7/2015)
I love Khris Middleton, yet, paradoxically, I also hate Khris Middleton. He is playing so well on such a small contract. Next year, he’ll probably play just as well, except we’ll be paying him roughly twenty times as much money. How is that fair? Players should just get paid for every point they score. That…
Read MoreKevin Martin 29 Points Full Highlights (3/7/2015)
At this point, I might as well make “Minnesota Timberwolves 121 Points Full Highlights (3/7/2015)”, since this is now the fourth performance from that game that I have done. In a way, I am saving the best for last: Rubio, Wiggins, and Neal all scored fewer points than K-Mart. Then again, maybe not. Rubio and…
Read MoreCorey Brewer 24 Points/3 Dunks Full Highlights (3/7/2015)
“Explosion of the Emaciated.” “Clash of the Corpses.” “Skirmish of the Skinny.” “Apocalypse of the Anorexic.” “Terror of the Twigs.” Those are just some of the names that you could reference this game by. For a game between the league’s two skinniest players cannot simply be a “game”. It is something more. Watching Corey Brewer…
Read MoreDonatas Motiejunas 18 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (3/7/2015)
Wish me well, YouTube viewers. I soon will depart in my time machine, as a temporal warrior, to an end unknown. I am making my final preparations; my time-suit is fitted and applied, my affairs have been set in order, and I have a month’s worth of nonperishable food in the form of MREs located…
Read MoreRicky Rubio 13 Points/15 Assists Full Highlights (3/7/2015)
What is the NBA universe’s general consensus on Ricky Rubio’s woeful shooting percentages? As far as I can tell, there are two camps: those who think Rubio is a horrible player who will never get better at shooting the ball and will always be a liability, and those who think that his low volume and…
