Is it accurate to say that the Lakers are D’Angelo Russell’s team now? That one dude who pretty much got to do whatever he wanted with the team the last couple decades is gone now. Someone needs to step up and be the leader, and that someone needs to not be Nick Young. D’Angelo Russell…

Justise Winslow 18 Points Full Highlights (10/30/2016)
Damn, I didn’t know Justise Winslow had this in him. Midrange jumpers? I ran the query “SELECT * FROM madebuckets WHERE shottype=’midrange jumper’ AND playerid = ‘JustWins’ ORDER BY date ASC” on my mental database of converted NBA shot attempts and didn’t get a single result. Now, said database isn’t a perfect of representation (it…
Read MoreT.J. Warren 26 Points Full Highlights (10/30/2016)
Race is a contentious issue in modern America, and for good reason. Inequality abounds, achievement gaps widen, and mistrust is rampant. As worthy as the subject is, it is not my place to discuss such matters. I will leave that up to the good people who work in the media, with the confidence that they…
Read MoreWesley Matthews 25 Points Full Highlights (10/30/2016)
Whoof. Not a great game shooting-wise for Wesley Matthews. His point total looks good, which is all I (and you) really care about, but still. 3 of 15 from three is not a good look. Luckily, I don’t deal in lowlights. These are highlights, and he still made 9 shots, including a really super ultra…
Read MoreJulius Randle 20 Points Full Highlights (10/30/2016)
Anyone else think that this last bucket by Julius Randle shouldn’t even count? 30 seconds left, Lakers are going to lose for sure, no one’s really trying anymore, and Julius goes and throws a loopy hook off the glass and in. Come on. That’s ridiculous. Basketball is about skilfully manipulating the sphere into the ring….
Read MoreMatthew Dellavedova 14 Points/9 Assists Full Highlights (10/29/2016)
On the surface, Matthew Dellavedova looks like a perfect fit for the Bucks feat. Point-Giannis. Delly doesn’t need the ball all the time, he plays defense without even needing to be told to, and he has a pretty decent three-ball. Great! There’s only one problem: He shoots floaters all the time! As we all know,…
Read MoreBojan Bogdanovic 26 Points Full Highlights (10/29/2016)
“Dear Father, I hope everything is going well for you in Croatia, because things are certainly not going very well here in America. The Nets will have a poor record again this year. I may accumulate good individual statistics, but you know me, father; I can never be content with personal success when the team’s…
Read MoreRashad Vaughn Career High 22 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (10/29/2016)
I’m going to be a homer for a little bit. Usually when a player really sucks in their rookie year I mock them relentlessly and secretly plan on them never getting better. This is in defiance of the old adage: “NBA rookies always suck no matter how good they will be later in their careers”….
Read MoreJarell Martin 13 Points Full Highlights (10/29/2016)
“Hey, Jarell, you writing a novel or something?” Jarell Martin looked up from his notebook to see Vince Carter standing in front of him. “Not really. Just writing down some goals for myself.” Vince stood next to Jarell and leaned forward, squinting. “That just looks like a list of people on the team. You gonna…
Read MoreSergio Rodriguez 14 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (10/29/2016)
I apologize sincerely for not making highlights of Sergio Rodriguez’ 12/9 debut performance for the Sixers. That was my bad. I should have made the highlights but I didn’t. If I had known how badass his beard was I would have made a video no questions asked. But you have to admit that fourteen points…
