Nothing surprises me anymore. I fully expect Will Barton to become the Nuggets’ main scoring threat to end the season, averaging between 15 and 20 a game. Why the hell not? Who else is gonna score the rock? Ty Lawson is too busy being drunk, and Danilo Gallinari is too busy tearing knee ligaments. Barton,…
Read MoreDennis Schröder 17 Points Full Highlights (2/25/2015)
The Mavericks’ commentators brought up an interesting point: should Dënniß ßchrööder be considered for the Most Improved Player award? Short answer: No. Long Answer: No, because MIP shouldn’t ever be awarded to a second year player, since it is expected that many rookies will improve drastically, especially young ones with refined skill sets like ßchrööder….
Read MoreAndrea Bargnani 17 Points Full Highlights (2/25/2015)
Andrea Bargnani’s failings as a Knick have been well documented, but for those who may not be aware of them, I will list some of them here: – Knicks gave up a laughable amount of stuff for him in a trade, so even though he already was kind of done fans had unrealistic expectations of…
Read MoreJonas Jerebko 20 Points Full Highlights (2/25/2015)
Jonas Jerebko’s minutes for the Pistons have gone down steadily since his rookie year. That Achilles injury must have really done him in, since the normal progression for young players is to earn MORE minutes, not watch them slowly wither into nothing. Maybe a change of scenery is just what he needs. BREAKING NEWS UPDATE:…
Read MoreJoffrey Lauvergne 11 Points Full Highlights (2/25/2015)
I tried to find a better thumbnail image, I really did. This is just how Joffrey Lauvergne looked the whole time he was on the court, mouth constantly agape, huffing and puffing for air. Poor guy, he didn’t expect to play this many minutes and the air in Denver is so damn thin. I wouldn’t…
Read MoreC.J. Miles 21 Points Full Highlights (2/24/2015)
C.J. Miles was so hot in the third quarter of this game (fifteen points) that I’m not sure why he didn’t play the beginning of the fourth. I get that he might have been tired, but he’s an NBA player. They can go the whole 48 if you ask them to. The Thunder used his…
Read MoreKentavious Caldwell-Pope 21 Points Full Highlights (2/24/2015)
Someone really needs to give Kentavious Caldwell-Pope “the talk”. But instead of the birds and the bees, it should be the birds and the threes! HAHAHAHA! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Sorry. But hidden in that bad pun is a salient point. His shot selection has been pretty crazy this year, especially with regards to three pointers. He has…
Read MoreHollis Thompson 22 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (2/23/2015)
“Alcohollis” Thompson really caught the attention of the Heat commentators this game. They characterized him as a “big who can shoot”, when he’s really just a “wing who can shoot” (a much more common find in the NBA). This again proves that the commentators are more for entertainment than informational purposes, but we already knew…
Read MoreAdreian Payne 11 Points Full Highlights (2/23/2015)
“Wow, eleven points in his first start, pretty good game for the rook,” you might say as you struggle to decide whether or not you really watch this video. Throw off the chains of deception, I command you! Adreian Payne did indeed score eleven points in his first start. However, the critical piece of missing…
Read MoreLuke Babbitt 18 Points/4 Threes Full Highlights (2/23/2015)
“That was a pretty good win tonight, huh? All thanks to me.” Luke Babbitt stared at the locker room mirror, his brow furrowed. “All thanks to you? I think you’re forgetting who actually takes and makes the shots here. Your presence is a help, no doubt about it, but what would you be without me?…
