Attention Denver TV production crew people: if the other team commits a stupid turnover so that Denver gets the ball back on the side, and you see Nikola Jokic hustling over to get the ball from the ref so that he can inbound it, DO NOT switch the camera angle to the dummy who committed…

Al-Farouq Aminu 19 Points/5 Threes Full Highlights (10/26/2017)
It might seem like Al-Farouq Aminu is a grizzled veteran at this point. He’s been in the league eight years. To me, having that much NBA experience qualifies you for the title of “veteran”, and he’s definitely got the “grizzled” part down with his unkempt facial hair. The thing is, he might be a veteran,…
Read MoreLauri Markkanen 14 Points Full Highlights (10/26/2017)
The Bulls have finally dredged up enough competency from the murky depths of their being to win a game. Maybe I shouldn’t say “finally”, because it only took them four games to do it, which is way fewer than what I expected. I was thinking, you know, maybe post All-Star break before the scored more…
Read MoreDavid Nwaba 15 Points Full Highlights (10/26/2017)
I admit, I didn’t think David Nwaba would find another NBA team to play for after the Lakers waived him. A European team, sure, he would probably dominate over there. But not an NBA team. How many squads need a 6-4 dude who plays like a big? I love his hustle and his heart and…
Read MoreMarco Belinelli 23 Points Full Highlights (10/26/2017)
I have seen enough. This is, definitively, the version of Marco Belinelli we are going to be seeing for the rest of the season. The “Shot selection? What does that mean remember I don’t speak English” version. The version who takes long twos with a defender right in his face because who else is gonna…
Read MoreBrandon Ingram 19 Points Full Highlights (10/25/2017)
First the Suns beat a non D-League team, and now the Lakers beat the Wizards? How am I supposed to dump on teams for being the worst in the league if they keep winning games? If the Knicks come out and win a game within their next five, I’m gonna through up my hands and…
Read MoreLarry Nance Jr. 18 Points Full Highlights (10/25/2017)
I think it’s funny that Larry Nance Jr. made exactly the same facial expression after hitting a long two-point stepback that he made after utterly posterizing his now-teammate Brook Lopez last year in what was probably (okay, definitely) the dunk of the year. All that was missing was the shrug. It’s like he knows that…
Read MoreJeff Green 18 Points Full Highlights (10/25/2017)
There are probably a lot of theories out there for why the Cavaliers are underperforming to start the season, having been gifted an easy schedule through the first games but failing to capitalize on it. Some would point to Kyrie’s departure, or Wade’s sudden transformation into an old man, or Lue’s incompetence as a coach….
Read MoreDennis Smith Jr. 19 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (10/25/2017)
I don’t really get the impression that the Mavericks have a “core” of players that they are definitely trying to build around long-term. A “core” has to include at least three players. That is the minimum amount for a core. A player is disqualified from being part of the core if they are older than…
Read MoreJames Johnson 21 Points Full Highlights (10/25/2017)
James Johnson is one of those guys who starts off the season looking skinny and in-shape, but by the end of the season they’re tubby again. The strict training regimen of the summer and pre-season gives way thanks to the hectic schedule of an NBA season. I suppose it’s better than showing up fat and…
