Masai Ujiri must still be really salty over having Giannis Antetokounmpo snatched up in front of him, because he’s seemingly trying to turn Pascal Siakam into a similar player after the failure of Bruno Caboclo to do the same. I mean, there’s no other reason for Siakam to be bringing the ball up the court,…

Mo Bamba 12 Points Full Highlights (11/4/2018)
If the Magic want to avoid being stuck in 11th seed purgatory forever, they need Mo Bamba to turn into their next Shaq. Starting right now. There are other paths forward, but most of them are not feasible (praying for Giannis to come save you is not really a valid path), this one is the…
Read MoreMeyers Leonard 15 Points Full Highlights (11/4/2018)
I would like to share with you a statistical tidbit that has been making the rounds on social media lately: Meyers “Seven-Foot-One” Leonard’s last blocked shot came in the 2016-17 season. He played all of last year and so far all of this year without rejecting a single field goal attempt. You’d think that, eventually,…
Read MoreKyle Kuzma 24 Points Full Highlights (11/4/2018)
The Lakers are still under .500 10 games into the season, so that means it’s time for LeBron’s favorite time of the year: trade season! As GM of the Lakers, he gets to decide which players stay and which players go. He also gets to handpick a new coach if he wants, but that’s not…
Read MoreMikal Bridges 14 Points/4 Threes Full Highlights (11/4/2018)
It’s time to take Ryan Anderson out behind the arena, gently lower him into a dumpster as he weakly protests, close the lid, put a tire on it, and wait for the elements to do their thing. That might take a while in Phoenix, so if they want to borrow a Milwaukee dumpster so that…
Read MoreShelvin Mack 21 Points Full Highlights (11/4/2018)
If someone (it would have to be me, wouldn’t it) were to compile a list of least-relevant-but-not-terrible NBA players, Shelvin “The Macksturbator” Mack would have to be way up at the top. He’s for sure a competent backup PG, not a starter at all, but a guy who you feel kinda comfortable having on the…
Read MoreSerge Ibaka Career High 34 Points Full Highlights (11/4/2018)
Those who were watching this game were doubtlessly aware of how Serge Ibaka was taking a whole bunch of shots and making them all. He didn’t miss a shot in the first half on 11 tries, if I remember right. Eventually he ended up 15-for-17, which is good, but it’s not perfect. Hard to blame…
Read MoreRondae Hollis-Jefferson 21 Points Full Highlights (11/4/2018)
Every time Rondae Hollis-Jefferson hits one of those spastic short-midrange jumper things that he likes to take, you can see the opposing players deflate. It’s a great tactic for the Nets; have him spaz out and nearly commit three separate offensive fouls before improbably canning a horrible-looking jimbo right in the defender’s face and watch…
Read MoreJustin Jackson Career High 22 Points Full Highlights (11/4/2018)
The Kings were looking really good prior to this game. All their role-players were showing up, De’Aaron Fox was looking like a star in the making, and Nemanja Bjelica was making everyone better. Then came the Bucks, and everyone failed to show up except for this man. Justin Jackson. Him “showing up” often means “scoring…

Your buddy DTB really messed this one up bad. I already told you all about my ambitious Halloween NBA trivia contest candy giveaway scheme. Basically, the more NBA-related questions the kiddos got right, the more candy they got. The amount doubled with every question, so like 4 pieces for the third question, 8 for the…
