Reggie “Ock and Bull Torture” Bullock is giving me Jordan Hill vibes. But these vibes are not the “player comparison” vibes that I usually receive. These are “hair comparison” vibes. Jordan Hill was sort of a forgotten man before he fell out of the NBA (it actually wouldn’t surprise me if he was still hiding…

Domantas Sabonis 17 Points Full Highlights (1/27/2018)
One thing that I fear will go unnoticed if I don’t point it out right here in the first sentence before everyone loses interest and stops reading: Domantas Sabonis totally took out Lance Stephenson with a chest bump. Starting at around 1:09. I can’t tell if Stephenson flopped a little bit to make it seem…
Read MoreKhem Birch 11 Points Full Highlights (1/27/2018)
Khem “The Alkhemist” Birch is already 25 years old, just in case you were thinking about getting hyped for him. You’re still allowed to get a little hyped, but that’s because he’s Canadian, not because of what age he is. If your first thought when you first saw him (which might have been right as…
Read MoreMarkieff Morris 23 Points Full Highlights (1/27/2018)
Two good games in a row for Markieff Morris. 20 points last game, 23 points this game. A feat that he had accomplished numerous times in previous seasons, but was rare (nonexistent) this year. After tonight, I’m going to say that John Wall was the problem. I used to think Mike Scott was the problem;…
Read MoreGary Harris 24 Points Full Highlights (1/27/2018)
It’s weird to think about Gary Harris being a first-option on a team, but here we are. I’ve still got, in the back of my mind, visions of rookie-year Harris, you know, the one who sucked really bad, and those visions still slightly distort my perception of him. Even as he makes scoring look easy,…
Read MoreNik Stauskas 15 Points Full Highlights (1/27/2018)
Nik “Rain Curry” Stauskas hasn’t gotten as much run in Brooklyn as I had hoped. Things started off fine, but recently he’s been notching DNPs and hadn’t made more than two shots in a game in this calendar year. If he’s not shooting well, it’s hard to play him, I understand that. But DNPs? Kenny…
Read MoreAaron Gordon 22 Points Full Highlights (1/27/2018)
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a player of Aaron Gordon’s size and build do those stepback jumpers that he does. He’s so SPRINGY on those, and he jumps WAY back. It’s starting to seem like that’s his go to move; he even does it from behind the arc. Stepback threes are an iffy proposition…
Read MoreJahlil Okafor 21 Points Full Highlights (1/27/2018)
No exaggeration, Jahlil Okafor made Karl-Anthony Towns his bitch tonight. Just straight up abused him, repeatedly. I’ve been told that KAT is learning how to play defense this season; that claim has now been revealed to be a dirty, devious lie, a blatant fabrication to get him into the All-Star game. It worked, but you’d…
Read MoreNikola Jokic Triple Double 11 Pts/16 Rebs/11 Asts Full Highlights (1/27/2018)
Nikola Jokic went about 2.5 quarters in a row without scoring the single, solitary point he needed for the “points” component of his usual triple-double. Even as he acquired the other stats with ease, he stubbornly refused to score. I spent most of that time yelling at my stream, telling the other Nuggets to stop…
Read MoreLance Stephenson 21 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (1/27/2018)
Lance “Sorry Tommy” Stephenson just set a season-high in both points and assists in this game, helping the Pacers surge back from a huge deficit to steal a win from the Magic. The Magic might be total sewer trash, but this was still a gritty performance from a team that maybe lost some of its…
