Kelly Oubre walked up to John Wall in the locker room. “So, yeah, we’re totally playing better with you injured and sitting on the bench.” John looked at his teammate coldly. “Why you gotta be that way, man? I’m in here supporting you guys every day.” Looking up from the YouTube video that he was…
Read MoreWill Barton 25 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (2/25/2018)
Will Barton: super ultra discount version of James Harden? Let’s go with it. Sounds a lot better than “Corey Brewer 2.0”. The similarities are all there, but not as good: the beard, the shooting/chucking, the driving/finishing ability, passing, and… that’s about it. Not nearly as much foul-drawing ability, but that’s a good thing. Also more…
Read MoreDanny Green 22 Points Full Highlights (2/25/2018)
It’s been a long time, a really long time, almost a decade holy crap, since Danny Green was on the Cavaliers, but I’d still consider this a revenge game. Green exacted sweet REVENGE on the team that spurned him, showed them exactly how he could still be helping their championship aspirations, and I think LeGM…
Read MoreKhris Middleton 25 Points Full Highlights (2/25/2018)
I have watched a lot of Bucks games this year, and I have this factoid to report to you: when Khris Middleton shoots a midrange jumper, it goes in. Every time. He never misses. I don’t care what the stats say, becase I say that his midrange game is the money-est midrange game in the…
Read MoreJrue Holiday 36 Points Full Highlights (2/25/2018)
While watching this game live, it seemed like the Bucks couldn’t stop Jrue Holiday at all. Like he was scoring every time he touched the ball. That was partially the case, but I had no idea until I looked at the boxscore that he had taken 31 shots (and 2 free throws, can’t forget about…
Read MoreNikola Jokic 21 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (2/25/2018)
Nikola Jokic’s triple-double streak has ended. He had a good chance to continue it, but he only picked up one assist in the fourth quarter. It’s easy to blame his teammates for the lack of generated assists, but I’m not going there. Jokic himself would never blame his fellow Nuggets. Instead, I’m going to blame…
Read MoreDavid Nwaba 14 Points Full Highlights (2/24/2018)
I’m kinda talking myself into maybe considering making a David Nwaba dunkilation at the end of this season. He’s had his share of high-flying power pumps this season, but he’s also only dunked it twenty-one times in total. That puts him on par with other non-dunkers like Kosta Koufos (bald), Jrue Holiday (underrated), Harrison Barnes…
Read MoreJeff Teague 25 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (2/24/2018)
I think Timberwolves fans would like Jeff Teague a lot more if he would just run pick-and-pops with Karl-Anthony Towns every other possession like Ricky Rubio did. There’s a reason KAT is averaging so much less this season, and that reason is his point guard is more concerned with making boneheaded turnovers and generally sucking…
Read MoreTaj Gibson 19 Points Full Highlights (2/24/2018)
I’m too sad about my whole entire channel getting deleted to write another sad story about how Taj Gibson tries and fails to woo his cheerleader crush Brianna. I don’t think I can face having to write up a situation where Gibson’s teammates cruelly trample his dreams in emasculating, embarrassing, or demeaning ways. Having to…
Read MoreDonovan Mitchell 25 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (2/24/2018)
I don’t understand why the Jazz commentators were hyped for the “Donovan Mitchell vs. Dennis Smith Jr.” battle. Can it even be called a “battle” when they don’t play the same position? And if it even was a battle, why would you get excited for it? Mitchell’s gonna crush that matchup eight out of ten…
