Well, that’s it. No Anthony Tolliver dropping bombs in the playoffs this year. His total of 11 career postseason buckets will have to wait before growing larger. Yeah, that’s not a very impressive total, but it totally would’ve gotten way bigger had the Pistons somehow wormed their way into the playoffs. Tolliver is basically a…
Read MoreJohnathan Motley 14 Points Full Highlights (4/4/2018)
The Mavericks didn’t even try tonight. Facing the Magic, they knew they had to pull out all the stops to get the loss. Among the stops pulled out: -Johnathan Motley playing 41 minutes -Aaron Harrison playing 41 minutes -Kyle Collinsworth playing 35 minutes -Only vet J.J. Barea getting injured 10 minutes in and is out…
Read MoreNikola Mirotic 25 Points Full Highlights (4/4/2018)
Ah. Ahhhh. AAAAHHH! AAAAAHHHHHHHHHH! Nikola Mirotic dropped 25 points tonight, which is really cool and there is nothing different or weird or abhorrent about the way he looks at all. Everything’s the same in Mirotic-world. This is the same Mirotic we’ve been seeing for years now, except he’s in a Pelicans jersey. All good. Yup….
Read MoreMarShon Brooks 25 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (4/4/2018)
It happened again. I will no longer be surprised with future MarShon “Mar$wag” Brooks performances. He could score 50 next game (it’s strange how that doesn’t even sound that unrealistic) and I would be like “yup, that’s Mar-dollar-wag for you”. In fact, I don’t see any reason why that should not be the goal for…
Read MoreKyle Kuzma 26 Points Full Highlights (4/3/2018)
Kyle Kuzma has delivered after his impressive Summer League (which seems so long ago, now). I didn’t think he would, really. No one ever does, I’ve been burned by Josh Selby and the like so many times that I’m beginning to think it’s better to suck in Summer League. I’m pretty much ready for this…
Read MoreDonovan Mitchell 26 Points Full Highlights (4/3/2018)
I haven’t abandoned Donovan Mitchell yet! Unlike Ben Simmons (who is definitely way too good [or gets too many stats anyway] for my channel so I just sorta stopped making vids for him), if Mitchell has a good enough game, I can still dredge up a vid from the murky swamp of my willingness. Mitchell…
Read MoreClint Capela 21 Points Full Highlights (4/3/2018)
The Rockets are going to win the championship, aren’t they? I’m sitting here munching on a Pop-Tart, and I’m watching Capela-Harden/Paul pick-and-rolls, and my hope for a non-Houston chip gets lower and lower. Clint Capela doesn’t get talked about enough as the third part of their “big three”. That’s because he’s super limited in what…
Read MoreDanuel House 14 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (4/3/2018)
I will always remember Danuel “House Party” House for two things. The first thing is that his name is spelled funny. “House” is spelled roughly how you would expect, but “Danuel”? I pronounce it Dan-Yoo-Ell in my head. If I was him I’d legally change it to “Daniel” just so people like me don’t pronounce…
Read MoreJustin Jackson 19 Points Full Highlights (4/3/2018)
It was sort of a foregone conclusion going into this game that, in the battle of the players whose names are “J. Jackson”, the Suns’ Josh Jackson would come out on top. He just has that scorer’s mentality that is missing from the Kings’ Justin Jackson. To my surprise and delight, however, Justin Jackson actually…
Read MoreWill Barton 26 Points Full Highlights (4/3/2018)
At points this season, Will Barton has been a convenient scapegoat whenever the Nuggets lost, which was more often than maybe they should have given their talent level. Never mind that Paul Millsap is the real scapegoat here (for ruining team chemistry) or that many other players had fixable defiencies that led to losses (Jokic…
