Before the season started I created a list (available upon request) of players (including nicknames) ranked by how likely it was that I make highlights of them. Every NBA player. And there right at the very bottom: 414. Charlie “Cancer Patient” Villanueva So here you are, gazing in bewilderment at the video title, wondering what…

Ben Gordon 26 Points Full Highlights (7 Threes) (11/28/2012)
What’s up with Ben Gordon? He was such a stud with the Bulls, but for some reason he did nothing but collect butt splinters on the bench in Detroit. Everywhere he goes he shows that he can put up some nice stats, and still he can’t get good minutes on the frickin’ Bobcats. He must…
Read MorePatrick Patterson 22 Points Full Highlights (11/27/2012)
Patrick Patterson. I’m pretty sure he’s a basketball player, and I think he plays for the Houston Rockets. No, wait, that’s Marcus Morris. These alliterative names sure do confuse me. Huh? You say Patterson -is- on the Rockets? Okay. So here we see this guy named Patrick don a Rockets jersey and score 22 points,…
Read MoreTerrence Ross Career High 19 Points/4 Huge Jams Full Highlights (11/27/2012)
Remember Vince Carter? Of course you do. He’s only the greatest dunker of all time. His tenure with the Raptors featured some of the greatest jams the world has ever seen. But after his acrimonious departure, a void was left in the hearts of Canadians everywhere. A void previously occupied by amazing slamma-jammas. But weep…
Read MoreErsan Ilyasova 18 Points Full Highlights (11/26/2012)
Ersan Ilyasova AKA The Ersanator AKA Turk Dirk AKA Arsen Ilyasov the 30-year-old Uzbek has sucked very bad so far this year.

Read MoreCaron Butler 33 Points/9 Threes Full Highlights (11/26/2012)
Time for impersonations. Guess who this is: BINGO! BIIIIIINGOOOOOOOO! OH MEEE OH MY! It’s the Clippers’ insufferable and moronic colorman Ralph Lawler! Caron Butler had a devastating performance and set a record for three-pointers made by a Clipper, but it was all ruined by Lawler’s childish catchphrases and grating diction. I’m all for having fun…
Read MoreKevin Seraphin 18 Points Full Highlights (11/26/2012)
Seraph – n. A celestial or heavenly being in Abrahamic religions. From Hebrew śərāfîm, “burning ones”. Pl. (-aphs, -aphim or -aphin). Well that’s pretty bad-ass. You play the Wizards, not only do you have to go up against one winged celestial being who may or may not be on fire, you have to go up…
Read MoreBrandon Knight 26 Points Full Highlights (11/26/2012)
He turned his gaze inwards. What was there to see, here, deep in his own psyche? At first, nothing. Nothing but a vague blurry lightness. Slowly, steadily, the haze condensed and reformed, revealing what had previously been hidden. A glimmering radiance, his inner essence, an immortal being of pure white. It was his soul! He…
Read MoreHasheem Thabeet Career High 13 Points/10 Rebounds First Career Double-Double (11/26/2012)
Hasheem “Tha Bust” Thabeet is notable for being one of the biggest busts of all time. I mean, how can a guy who is 7-3 take 165 attempts to record 10 points and 10 rebounds in the same game? I’m not hating or anything, it’s just a plain fact that this guy sucks. Or USED…
