“Dear Diary, Things have been different since the Rockets traded Chris for Russell. When I found out that stupid baby Chris was going to play somewhere else, I was real happy. Chris was never any fun and coach Mike always said he was the starter even when I told him that I wanted to be…

Mitchell Robinson 17 Points/5 Dunks Full Highlights (11/16/2019)
The last play shown in this video is a demonstration of a few things. First, it’s a demonstration of the indomitable power of the human spirit. Mitchell Robinson obviously rolled his ankle or something, yet he gamely continues to play and even takes part in a pick-and-roll to get a dunk. He could have just…
Read MoreP.J. Washington 19 Points Full Highlights (11/16/2019)
P.J. Washington is a surprisingly dunk-prone player, with 23 dunks as of the time of this writing. He is more prone to dunk the basketball than pretty much anyone his size in the NBA; the only other comparable dunker is Jabari Parker (who has way more dunks, just another illustration of how much of a…
Read MoreKendrick Nunn 22 Points/2 Dunks Full Highlights (11/16/2019)
For the first three quarters of the game, as far as I can tell, the only thing that Kendrick Nunn did besides shoot (successfully or unsuccessfully) was grab a rebound and notch an assist (with no time left in the third). No turnovers, no free throws, no fouls, nothing except shots. I’ve always thought that…
Read MoreJoe Harris 22 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (11/16/2019)
Joe Harris is basically the same player he was last year. Same insane three-point percentage, same scoring, slightly fewer assists (before tonight, that is), same meager rebounding, nearly the same playing time. It’s actually rare to see a player be so consistent year-over-year. But if he’s just as good as he was last season, why…
Read MoreJerome Robinson Career High 21 Points Full Highlights (11/16/2019)
Normally I don’t 100 percent trust black-box analysis where someone throws a bunch of numbers in, magic happens, and rankings or whatever pop out. Presumably that’s how ESPN’s draft analytics models worked when they claimed that Jerome Robinson was more of a late-second round type of player than the type of player who would be…
Read MoreR.J. Barrett 22 Points Full Highlights (11/16/2019)
Lots of things are going wrong with the Knicks right now, actually pretty much everything is going wrong for them, so to increase positivity among the fanbase, I’ll list some things that are going right. No one wants to hear how their team sucks all the time, especially when they have to watch them suck…
Read MoreBen McLemore 20 Points Full Highlights (11/16/2019)
I apologize for this wholly unoriginal thought, but I’m thinking right now that Ben McLemore/Austin Rivers/Chris Clemons as a combined triumvirate is a better fit with James Harden than Russell Westbrook is. My views are not at all tainted by the fact that those three combined for 58 points in this game while Westbrook sat…
Read MoreChris Clemons 19 Points/1 Dunk Full Highlights (11/16/2019)
The Houston Rockets seem to be a perfect fit for Chris Clemons. In retrospect, we could’ve seen this coming; what better place for a guy who loves nothing more than to shoot tons of shots, than a place where the coach loves to have his players shoot tons of shots? It’s a match made in…
Read MoreNickeil Alexander-Walker 27 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (11/16/2019)
Nickeil “Hell NAW” Alexander-Walker was, prior to this game, shooting a positively frigid 26 percent from the field. That’s like me, when I’m playing against people who can actually play and not just randoms at the park. I’m sure the issues currently plaguing Alexander-Walker are the same ones I face: the opposition is bigger and…
