Last year was not a good year for Juan Hernangomez. I don’t know what happened, but Michael Malone decided that he wasn’t going to play, so he didn’t play. He was inactive for huge chunks of the season. The most telling stat the illustrated his not-goodness: he appeared in part 4 (of 4) of my…
Read MoreAlex Abrines Career High 25 Points Full Highlights (11/1/2018)
Hopefully this game goes a fair way towards rehabilitating Alex Abrines’ reputation with Thunder fans. I don’t think they were very happy with his performance so far this year. At all. He scored 29 points total in the 6 games before this, and when you combine that with all the losing… yeah. And it’s not…
Read MoreBoban Marjanovic 15 Points Full Highlights (11/1/2018)
Apparently the Clippers are done with Marcin Gortat, because he started the game but didn’t the start the second half. Teams almost never change their starting lineups in between halves like that. Don’t come at me with the “b-b-but Gortat h-had four fouls!”. I don’t want to hear your excuses. Tell me, was Gortat able…
Read MoreJaVale McGee 16 Points/5 Blocks Full Highlights (10/31/2018)
The Lakers might not be doing nearly as well as their fans want (they’re 3-5 at the time of this writing and barely beat a bad Mavs squad), but, hey, JaVale McGee is putting up monster numbers so I’m totally cool with it. I couldn’t care less if the new-look Lakers led by Jabroni Lames…
Read MoreJae Crowder 18 Points/5 Threes Full Highlights (10/31/2018)
Jae Crowder is a theoretical 6MOTY of the Year candidate given that he never starts games but still gets around thirty minutes of on-court action. The only problem is, thirteen points per game isn’t really going to do it when the voters are only looking for the brainless chucker who chucked the most brainless shots….
Read MoreE’Twaun Moore 21 Points Full Highlights (10/31/2018)
Never is E’Twaun Moore’s “Eat One More” nickname more appropriate than on Halloween night. My apartment doesn’t get a whole lot of trick-or-treating visitors, but I do get a couple, so I make sure to have a bowl of candy at the ready for all the little goblins and witches and superheroes. The way I…
Read MoreMikal Bridges 16 Points/2 Dunks Full Highlights (10/31/2018)
I came into this highlight-making excursion wanting to find out exactly how “Mikal” is supposed to be pronounced, and I left it not much closer to my goal. I thought it would just be pronounced “Michael”, you know, like normal, but apparently it’s not, because that variation was not uttered even one time that I…
Read MoreNikola Mirotic 26 Points Full Highlights (10/31/2018)
Nikola Mirotic is edging towards being too good for my channel at this point. I’ll give it a few more weeks, but if he’s still averaging 23, he’s outta here. I’ve already excised Tim Hardaway Jr., more because his game pisses me off than anything, but also because he’s scoring 25 a game. Mirotic’s game…
Read MoreJoe Harris 23 Points Full Highlights (10/31/2018)
Even with that 14-three performance, Klay Thompson has made fewer threes this season than Joe Harris, which lends credence to my theory that Harris could be just as good as Thompson if he was on the Warriors instead. This is a hard theory to do empirical testing on, but I’ve seen enough of both players…
Read MoreDomantas Sabonis Career High 30 Points/0 Missed Field Goals Full Highlights (10/31/2018)
In case you didn’t hear about it, Domantas Sabonis just scored 30 points on 12-for-12 shooting. Everyone’s busy not paying attention because of some other thing that happened tonight which wasn’t even that cool because it involved missed shots, but there’s got to be a few Lithuanians or something who care about this right now….
