Nikola Mirotic’s blazing start is officially over. Games of 30 and 36 were followed by games of 18 and 10. Still a decent average, but not as decent as his average after two. It was fun while it lasted. We will never forget the night he helped the Pelicans almost drop a 150-burger in regulation….

Ryan Arcidiacono 13 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (10/27/2018)
Ryan Arcidiacono is the best PG that the Bulls currently have available. Not a tough task to beat out Cameron Payne and Tyler Ulis, but still. He’s also by far the handsomest PG that the Bulls currently have available, maybe even that the whole league has available, but it’s even less impressive to beat out…
Read MoreDaniel Theis 17 Points Full Highlights (10/27/2018)
Okay, the Celtics can still be a good team. Their season isn’t over yet. Look what they just did: they beat an undefeated team! Probably the worst undefeated team in history after four games, but the Celtics still did what no one else has been able to. A loss tonight would’ve brought me great joy,…
Read MoreRicky Rubio 28 Points/12 Assists Full Highlights (10/27/2018)
How much of Ricky Rubio’s offensive output tonight, in the form of both points and assists, could be attributed to the fact that Anthony Davis was out for the Pelicans? You could probably take away most of his layups, and forget about a bunch of those lobs to Gobert. New Orleans, very obviously, doesn’t have…
Read MoreDonte DiVincenzo 15 Points Full Highlights (10/27/2018)
Donte DiVincenzo showed basically nothing both in Summer League and preseason. I know, because I was waiting earnestly for him to do something, anything, and he didn’t. Unless you count airballing threes as “something”. So it didn’t really make sense for Coach Bud to bring him off the bench as the 7th man only a…
Read MoreMarShon Brooks 18 Points Full Highlights (10/27/2018)
More than anyone else in the league, MarShon Brooks wished the offseason was only a couple days long so he could keep riding the hot streak he was on to end last year. He only played 7 games, so he was fresh despite averaging 20 during that time. He was the hottest player in the…
Read MoreBojan Bogdanovic 25 Points Full Highlights (10/27/2018)
DTB’s Official Bojan Bodanovic Stocks (steals + blocks) update: after tonight’s smothering defensive performance, Bojan Bogdanovic now has one stock on the year. Stocks are the reason that many people thought that Doug McDermott would be a bust; his were extremely low, and players with few of them rarely turn out to be good NBA…
Read MoreDeandre Ayton 24 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (10/27/2018)
Deandre Ayton went 12 of 13 tonight. The rest of his teammates? 4 of 75. That’s not a typo. That’s really what they shot. The Suns ended up scoring 34 points and Ayton had 24 of them. I’ve said this before, but it bears repeating in light of recent events (this game): he needs to…
Read MoreCaris LeVert 21 Points Full Highlights (10/26/2018)
Full disclosure: Caris LeVert needed 23 shot attempts to score 21 points. That’s full-on Jordan Crawford territory. If there was any justice in this world, I would not have made this video. I would have looked at LeVert’s statline, which looks good on the surface, and discarded it once the true nature of his inefficiency…
Read MoreBuddy Hield 22 Points Full Highlights (10/26/2018)
After the last update on my walking, talking, 3D-printed purple naked Buddy Hield statue, I realized that I didn’t go into as much depth into our zoo trip as I probably should have. It’s a fun story. So here it is. — From our night walks I figured out that Buddy was really into animals…
