Is Darren Collison good? It seems that he’s always getting shuffled around. Fanbases get excited that they now have a “real” point guard, and then by the end of the year they hate him. I don’t get it. He seems fine to me. But he got traded for Ian Mahinmi. That’s not a good portent….
Read MoreNikola Pekovic Career High 34 Points Full Highlights (12/22/2013)
“Yo, Pek, what are you doing?” “Do not interrupt, Kevin. I am worshiping my pagan gods so that I perform well tonight. Now I have to start over,” Pekovic said. “Perun, god of thunder, he will be displeased. I must channel his will and make it my own.” Kevin Love shook his head and laughed….
Read MoreAmir Johnson 17 Points Full Highlights (12/22/2013)
Amir Johnson is yet another player who has added a three point shot to his game. This is the new NBA. Everyone shoots threes. They’re efficient. To be a good player, you must shoot them. Luckily it seems to be mainly corner threes for now. It seems like he’s always been shooting the long two,…
Read MoreKhris Middleton 27 Points Full Highlights (12/21/2013)
“I don’t know guys, this doesn’t seem like a good idea to me.” Khris Middleton was standing outside of the Bradley Center in nothing but his boxers. Around him were several of his teammates, including Caron Butler, Zaza Pachulia, and Ersan Ilyasova. Caron dismissed Khris’ apprehensions. “Don’t worry about it. Nobody’s ever hurt themselves doing…

Read MoreJamal Crawford 27 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (12/21/2013)
When I meet a prospective friend for the first time, I need to have a quick way to determine if they are worthy of my friendship. After experimenting with different topics, I found the perfect question to weed out the unworthy. “Would you consider Jamal Crawford to be, on the whole, a good NBA player?”…
Read MoreMatthew Dellavedova 10 Points/4 Assists Full Highlights (12/21/2013)
Matthew “Wacky Delly” Dellavedova hasn’t really shown much so far this year. That’s to be expected of course; he’s Australian, and it takes those thusly afflicted a while to grasp the nuances of NBA basketball and how to dribble. Considering his disadvantages, it’s really amazing that he can do anything at all. He even “blocked”…
Read MoreOmri Casspi 13 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (12/21/2013)
OFFICIAL ISRAELI NBA PLAYERS POWER RANKINGS: 1. Omri Casspi 2. Gal Mekel 3. Amar’e Stoudemire Looking back at all of my power rankings, I think this might be the first one that could be considered “accurate”. There is no joke here. I’m not trying to be funny. Omri Casspi is objectively better than Gel Mekel….
Read MoreLuigi Datome 9 Points Full Highlights (12/21/2013)
Everyone makes a big deal about ugly players in the NBA. Anthony Davis is continually mocked. Sam Cassell’s biggest legacy is his alien-esque facial features. DJ Mbenga looks like a pile of mashed potatoes. So it’s surprising that no one has mentioned Gigi Datome. I mean, look at his face. His eyes are way too…
Read MoreTobias Harris 21 Points Full Highlights (12/21/2013)
YouTube wants me to tag this video with “Iron Maiden”, presumably because one of their founding members is bassist Steve Harris. If I had known about YouTube’s suggestion sooner I would have set this video to their rollicking hit “Aces High”. Just kidding. I would never submit my viewership to music they may not want…
