I have come to the conclusion that it won’t even matter that Kawhi Leonard is for sure bolting to the Clippers in the offseason (to join LeBron who will be forcing a trade to the Clippers – you heard it here first). Kawhi’s a nice player, in fact he’s really nice, but the baggage and…

Malik Beasley 20 Points Full Highlights (4/18/2019)
Malik Beasley is exactly the kind of scorer that can bring the Nuggets back from their 1-2 series deficit. What I mean there is, if you stop pretending that he’s your sixth-man scorer off the bench and make him the second option behind Nikola Jokic, it’s basically guaranteed that he’ll pop for twenty, maybe twenty-five…
Read MoreIvica Zubac 18 Points Full Highlights (4/18/2019)
Ivica “The Croatato” Zubac started this game, played the first four minutes (picking up a point, a foul, and a rebound), and then got subbed out for JaMychal Green. He didn’t come back into the game until there was one minute left in the third quarter. That seemed weird to me so I rewatched the…
Read MoreNikola Jokic 22 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (4/18/2019)
It is not Nikola Jokic’s fault that the Nuggets are down 2-1 in this series. Maybe it was kinda his fault in game one that the Nuggets lost, but remember, he got a triple-double, and as Russell Westbrook has found out, triple-doubles shield you permanently from major criticism. I will say that Jokic could be…
Read MoreDerrick White Career High 36 Points Full Highlights (4/18/2019)
Derrick White opened his eyes slowly. When he saw where he was, or, more specifically, that he wasn’t in the locker room anymore, he shut them again. Maybe if kept his eyes closed, whatever hallucination he had just experienced would dissipate and he could open them again to find himself back with his jubilant teammates,…
Read MoreCaris LeVert 26 Points Full Highlights (4/18/2019)
Caris Levert made his mark on this game by scoring nineteen points in the second quarter alone. And by “made his mark”, I mean he literally left his mark on the game by using his ball sweat to create an outline of his nardal region on the game ball itself. There’s not much else to…
Read MoreReggie Jackson 18 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (4/17/2019)
Major props going out right now to the Pistons for actually putting up a fight in this game. Every lopsided 8-seed versus 1-seed matchup usually has at least one half where the 8-seed tries to make it a game, and the first half of this game was that half. They may have ended up losing…
Read MoreRicky Rubio 17 Points/9 Assists Full Highlights (4/17/2019)
I like the Jazz, but I like Ricky Rubio even more (I think because of his eyes that have a hidden depth behind their shimmering radiance), and I just don’t think that this “everyone touches the ball” thing the Jazz have going on is playing to Rubio’s strengths. It might be better for the team,…
Read MoreRoyce O’Neale 17 Points Full Highlights (4/17/2019)
True NBA role-player historians will remember the unlikely hero for the Jazz in last year’s series against the Rockets: Royce O’Neale, who scored 17 points on two seperate occasions, stepping up and leading his team on offense in game 3 while everyone else sucked, and again in game 5, again taking a leading role with…
Read MoreLuke Kennard 19 Points Full Highlights (4/17/2019)
I don’t want to freak anyone out here, but the knowledge I’m about to drop on you is seriously freaky. If you are of weak constitution, or are otherwise easily spooked, I advise you to discontinue reading this description and maybe to prevent yourself from reading my descriptions in the future. I don’t want to…
