Read MorePascal Siakam 14 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (2/8/2018)
PASCAL SIAKAM THREE-POINT PERCENTAGE UPDATE: Pascal Siakam is now shooting 17 percent from beyond the arc. But for some reason he keeps shooting them. He must be nailing them in practice, but maybe he doesn’t realize this obvious fact about the NBA: EVERYONE nails their threes in practice. You can find clips of basically every…
Read MoreDwight Powell 18 Points Full Highlights (2/8/2018)
The connection between J.J. Barea and Dwight Powell continues to astound me. How did these two guys, who are both average role-players at best, develop such great chemistry? Powell just goes to spots on the court where he thinks he can score from, and Barea gets him the ball in that spot to do just…
Read MoreDennis Smith Jr. 22 Points Full Highlights (2/8/2018)
This game represented quite a departure for Dennis Smith Jr.: instead of doing everything in the fourth quarter, he did NOTHING in the fourth quarter! You might think that this is a negative, but it totally isn’t. In fact, this is a significant milestone in his development. Now that he’s proven beyond reasonable doubt that…
Read MoreJusuf Nurkic 24 Points/4 Blocks Full Highlights (2/8/2018)
Is it possible to set screens that are… too good? Too bone-crushing? Yes! Jusuf Nurkic had a whole bunch of turnovers tonight, too many I would say, but some of them were unfairly handed out because of the sternum-shattering nature of his screens. Those were legit screens, but because Michael Kidd-Gilchrist is a little baby,…
Read MoreOtto Porter 27 Points Full Highlights (2/8/2018)
Well, the Wizards totally blew that one. Good news is, it wasn’t really Otto Porter’s fault, unless you consider him disappearing a problem. Or, instead of “disappearing”, maybe it was more like “getting frozen out of the offense by chucker Beal”. If they had won this game, we could’ve continued with the whole “Wizards are…
Read MoreMichael Beasley 21 Points Full Highlights (2/8/2018)
Michael Beasley really has to step up now. If the Knicks have any chance of being watchable at all for the remainder of the season, he has to go out there and score 30 per game. It has to be the Michael Beasley show every night. No passing. Just one-on-one, mano y mano isos every…
Read MoreLuke Kornet 11 Points/4 Blocks Knicks Debut Full Highlights (2/8/2018)
Most teams, if not all, have gotten good use out of their two-way players by this point in the season. A few among them have used up those players’ eligibility and been forced to get new ones, and one (the Suns) signed a two-wayer to a real contract because of how good he was than…
Read MoreTristan Thompson 17 Points Full Highlights (2/7/2018)
Tristan Thompson’s sleep was disturbed when he heard the unexpected squeaking of his bedroom door’s hinges. “Oh damn, that probably woke him up,” came a whispered voice from the area of the door. “Yeah, it kinda did,” Tristan replied sleepily into the darkness, recognizing the voice as that of his teammate LeBron James. “If this…
Read MoreJ.R. Smith 20 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (2/7/2018)
You can tell the Cavaliers commentators are desperate for any signs of life out of the Cavaliers in general and J.R. Smith in particular. They’ve watched their team completely implode, they know the drama that surrounds LeBron and his cadre of overpaid role-player teammates, and they’ve sat through a few seasons of Smith bricks. Their…
