It’s funny, the Memphis commentators had the distinct tone of “let’s wrap up this game with some statistical tidbits because there’s no way we’re going to win this one” which switched right into “frenzied excitement due to the un-freaking-believable nature of the happenings occurring before our eyes” as Jaren Jackson hit a three while getting…

Wendell Carter 28 Points/3 Blocks Full Highlights (11/30/2018)
The Bulls are still early in their tanking experiment (which, if the follow the Kings model, will go on indefinitely), but it’s never too early to try and identify pieces which need to be retained at any reasonable cost, and pieces that are disposable. The important pieces are part of the CORE. The non-important pieces…
Read MoreShai Gilgeous-Alexander 17 Points Full Highlights (11/29/2018)
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander started this game hot. He had eleven points in the first quarter and he was poised to crush his previous career high of nineteen points. I even wrote in my diary “SGA is going to score twenty. I feel it.” Those are the literal words from my literal diary. And then SGA only…
Read MoreMontrezl Harrell 24 Points Full Highlights (11/29/2018)
Now that everybody realizes that Montrezl “Vzncouver” Harrell is good (really really good), I would like to remind them that I’ve known that Harrell has been good (really really good) for the past two seasons. I’ve been making his highlights for a long time. I discovered him first. When he was off everybody’s radars, he…
Read MoreMarvin Bagley 18 Points Full Highlights (11/29/2018)
I get uneasy when Marvin Bagley does those running hook shots off of post-ups. Those are the kinds of shots that marginal big men take because they’re too weak to take their defender to BBQ town. Very few “good” players take that shot with any regularity. I’m guessing that Bagley takes those shots because he…
Read MoreBogdan Bogdanovic Career High 26 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (11/29/2018)
The idea has jokingly been suggested to create a Serbian Superteam in Sacramento (SSS) by somehow adding additional Serbs to the existing Serb core that is already on the Kings (Bogdan Bogdanovic and Nemanja Bjelica). But with the Kings hosting the Clippers last night, a team who has two of their own Serbs on the…
Read MoreJonas Jerebko 20 Points Full Highlights (11/29/2018)
It didn’t feel like much while watching it (yeah, I watched this game just to see the Warriors lose, you got a problem with that?), but Jonas Jerebko’s 20 points tonight falls only 2 short of a career high. He’s been a pretty good role-player for literally a whole decade, and his career high is…
Read MorePascal Siakam Career High 26 Points Full Highlights (11/29/2018)
I was so, so wrong about Pascal “Cameroonian Joel Embiid” Siakam. I didn’t go out and say straight up that he sucked (well maybe I did), but I certainly critized him for not being able to shoot as well as displayed a general lack of enthusiasm for him. I probably wasn’t even way off base;…
Read MoreDomantas Sabonis 20 Points Full Highlights (11/29/2018)
5 of 6 from three now for Domantas Sabonis on the year. I’m not even going to pretend that’s a good thing. It would be, if it was over a one or two-game span. But over the whole season so far? It means that he’s either not utilizing his skills as well as he can,…
Read MoreTim Frazier 12 Points/12 Assists Full Highlights (11/28/2018)
It’s been demonstrated time and time again that Tim Frazier needs big, consistent minutes in order to be a useful player. He’s not going to be any sort of sparkplug off the bench. That’s what the Wizards found out, and they ended up not using him (even though he’s better than John Wall, don’t even…
