Is D’Angelo Russell a part of the Nets’ future yeah or nah? He’s around in Brooklyn for one more year and then they’ll decide if they want to pay him or not. Contracts confuse me, but I bet Brooklyn will have his Bird Rights (whatever those are) and will be able to pay him more…
Read MoreDonovan Mitchell 27 Points Full Highlights (3/11/2018)
It took a while for Donovan Mitchell to get going in this one, but once his did, it was over for the Pelicans. 25 points in the last 15 minutes of the game, wow, typed out like that it doesn’t seem that impressive. Oops. Watch the video. It will be impressive. I promise. So impressive…
Read MoreMike Muscala Career High 19 Points Full Highlights (3/11/2018)
Mike “Musc Ox” Muscala is the longest tenured player with Atlanta, tied with Dennis Schroder at five years. It’s literally only him, Schroder, and Kent Bazemore that remain from that 60-win Hawks team. Talk about blowing it up! I, personally, would’ve probably kept Paul Millsap over him. Maybe Austin Daye as well. So what that…
Read MoreAntonio Blakeney 14 Points Full Highlights (3/11/2018)
The Bulls want to lose. We know that. They want to lose so bad that they’re willing to blatantly (so blatantly that Adam Silver had to tell them not to be so blatant) rest some of their better players for no reason other than to hurt their chances of winning. So why haven’t they played…
Read MoreNikola Jokic Triple Double 20 Pts/11 Rebs/10 Asts Full Highlights (3/11/2018)
This game had the feel of a “vintage” Nikola Jokic performance to me. The ratio of incredible highlight plays to pedestrian plays has been lower this year for him, which isn’t necessarily bad (no one remembers all those turnovers he had last year because he got too fancy), but it makes his highlights somewhat less…
Read MoreJulius Randle Career High 36 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (3/11/2018)
Julius Randle has improved nicely every year he’s been in the league. Remember his rookie season? His legs were so weak that he could barely step on the court without them disintegrating! The amount of progress he had made since then is staggering. Just earlier this season the Lakers FO/coaching staff were openly hostile towards…
Read MoreRicky Rubio 30 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (3/11/2018)
Ricky Rubio has not yet even tasted the first sip of sweet playoff nectar in the NBA. This is his 7th season in the league; the only current players with more seasons without hitting the postseason are Omri Casspi (playoffs this year), DeMarcus Cousins (does it count if he’s injured) and Luke Babbitt (probably playoffs)….
Read MoreAnte Zizic 15 Points Full Highlights (3/11/2018)
Prior to tonight, Ante Zizic had put together a solid (for him) run of games: 6, 5, and 4 points in the last three. But nothing could have prepared us for what we saw tonight. 15 points, 7 made shots, 2 blocks, all accumulated by Zizic in a mere 20 minutes as the stunned ESPN…
Read MoreLuke Kornet 18 Points Full Highlights (3/11/2018)
Luke Kornet against teams that are not the Raptors: 5 points on 2-for-18 shooting, 7 rebounds in 6 games. Luke Kornet against teams that are the Raptors: 29 points on 11-for-24 shooting, 14 rebounds in 2 games. It is clear. Kornet was put on this earth for one purpose and one purpose only: to dominate…
Read MoreTaurean Prince Career High 38 Points/7 Assists/7 Threes Full Highlights (3/11/2018)
It’s official: despite looking very similar to Tony Snell, Taurean Prince is way, WAY better than him. By a really big amount. For real. I think Snell had 0 points last game in like 30 minutes of action. In case you can’t read the title of this vid, well actually if you can’t read that…
