Anyone else getting some Steve Nash vibes from Elfrid Payton in a Suns jersey? No? Just me? Fine. Payton already has half the amount of triple-doubles in Phoenix that Nash did during his whole time there, so I can see why the comparison might fall a little flat. Also, Dragan Bender is no Amar’e. The…
Read MoreAndrew White 15 Points Hawks Debut Full Highlights (2/14/2018)
I’ve said it before but it bears repeating: these new two-way contracts are making it really damn hard for me trying to follow all of the scrubs of the NBA. There’s just too many of them, I think the NBA has already set a record for most players to appear in a game in a…
Read MoreAndrew Harrison Career High 28 Points Full Highlights (2/14/2018)
OFFICIAL THINGS THAT ANDREW HARRISON PROBABLY SAID TO THE REF TO GET EJECTED POWER RANKINGS 1. “I disagreed with that call, I believe I cleanly blocked Ferguson, can we talk about this in a civil and respectful manner?” 2. “I wish my brother was still in the NBA.” 3. “Westbrook is a hell of a…
Read MoreBogdan Bogdanovic 20 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (2/14/2018)
All these alternates jerseys this year are sweet, but they’re also really confusing. Gone are the days when I could look at a still from a game and identify the teams instantly, because there’s a really good chance that one or both of them are wearing some crazy alt that has all sorts of weird…
Read MoreMario Hezonja 21 Points Full Highlights (2/13/2018)
This is audition time for Mario Hezonja. Each game the Magic play, he gets to face a new team, a team that might be willing to open up their checkbook for him in the summer. Two games ago, the Bucks, last game, the Bulls, tonight, the Hornets. He scored 20 or more against all three,…
Read MoreTim Hardaway Jr. 37 Points Full Highlights (2/14/2018)
Talk about blue balls. As you probably already know by now, Tim Hardaway Jr. had 32 points in the first half of tonight’s game against the ‘Zards, breaking out of his slump with extreme force. Now, only a foolish optimist would think he would continue that performance fully into the second half and score 62,…
Read MoreJ.R. Smith 18 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (2/13/2018)
TNT has tried to sabotage my videos in the past by providing poor camera angles on shots, or by failing to provide adequate replays, or by coating their broadcasts with a thick layer of commentarial incompetence that no amount of creative editing can overcome. However, this latest attack on my ability to make highlight videos…
Read MoreZach Randolph 22 Points Full Highlights (2/13/2018)
Zach Randolph was awakened, not by a loud noise or a sudden flash of light, but by a familiar smell entering his nostrils. The smell of a Krispy Kreme donut. Wondering if the scent was just a trick being played on him by his sleepy brain, he reached over and switched on the light on…
Read MoreDwight Powell 18 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (2/13/2018)
Here are the scoring figures for Dwight Powell’s last six games: 17 points on 7-of-9 shooting 8 points on 2-of-3 shooting (this is proof he doesn’t whine about touches) 18 points on 7-of-9 shooting 19 points on 8-of-12 shooting 18 points on 6-of-12 shooting 18 points on 6-of-9 shooting The list I just lovingly typed…
Read MoreSteven Adams 22 Points Full Highlights (2/13/2018)
OKC’s big three had a relatively efficient scoring night by their standards, with each member putting in more than twenty points. Steven “The Big Kiwi” Adams put in his 22 points on a combination of dunks, push shots, and uncontainable hustling for the rebounds of his own missed free throws, but even with four players…
