In scoring seventeen points last night, J.J. Barea, at the ripe old age of 33, is officially scoring the most points per game of his career. 11.4 PPG might not seem like a lot, but when you consider that Barea has strictly been slotted into the backup role for his entire career, it’s actually pretty…
Read MoreBuddy Hield 21 Points Full Highlights (2/24/2018)
Does Buddy Hield only get 23 minutes per game because he’s already so well-developed that his minutes have been reduced in favor of the raw, under-developed players on the Kings’ roster?That’s the only logical explanation I can come up with for why a skilled scorer like Hield plays so little on a team that has…
Read MoreTyler Johnson 23 Points Full Highlights (2/24/2018)
Things that annoy me about this video: -Free throws. There’s too many of them. When a player makes more free throws than he makes field goals, that’s a telltale sign that I will be annoyed by having to make the video. In this case, Tyler Johnson made just six field goals while converting on nine…
Read MoreJustise Winslow 17 Points Full Highlights (2/24/2018)
Remember when Danny Ainge almost traded a gigantic package of draft picks to the Hornets in order to receive a draft pick that would guarantee him the ability to draft Justise “Bustise” Winslow? If that had gone down, the Celtics would probably be sitting at the eleventh seed in the East and Winslow would be…
Read MoreJamal Crawford 19 Points Full Highlights (2/24/2018)
With Jimmy Butler having exploded his meniscus (what is a meniscus? do I have meniscuses? how would I know if I exploded mine?), a lot of dudes on the Timberwolves are gonna have to step up to replace not only the lost production, but the lost leadership as well. Crawford, theoretically, can step up in…
Read MoreJaylen Brown 24 Points Full Highlights (2/24/2018)
Jaylen Brown allegedly had five dunks in this game against the Knicks. That is what the play-by-play data alleges. That is the NBA version of the facts. However, the DTB version of the facts states that Brown only dunked it three times. The missing dunks? They were just layups that should have been dunks except…
Read MoreTroy Williams 14 Points/2 Dunks Full Highlights (2/24/2018)
Before you get all confused about this dude, remember: he did some stuff on the Grizzlies last year. Started a whole bunch of games for them, and they won a bunch of those games. Then he went to the Rockets and did approximately one thing for them, which was score a bunch in his debut…
Read MoreTrey Burke 26 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (2/24/2018)
Burkesanity is happening right now. RIGHT NOW. Trey Burke has returned from the festering mires of the D-League and is lighting teams UP. For real. They can’t stop him, maybe that’s the game plan, to not stop him but stop everyone else, but that doesn’t matter. He’s going out there and scoring tons of buckets,…
Read MoreKentavious Caldwell-Pope 34 Points/8 Threes Full Highlights (2/24/2018)
Lakers fans are finding out first-hand the operating methods of one Kentavious “I Was In Such Trouble With The Law That I Couldn’t Play Games Outside The State Of California But For Some Reason The NBA Community At Large Hardly Noticed” Caldwell-Pope. Namely, that he likes to be the streakiest player in the league. As…
Read MoreBogdan Bogdanovic 21 Points Full Highlights (2/24/2018)
Bogdan Bogdanovic, apparently, did really well in the Rising Stars challenge for the “World” team. So well that they gave him a trophy for doing so well. And unlike the trophies that they gave to me as a kid (TBH the bowling one I have is pretty swag but damn I sucked at that), this…
