The Pacers’ starters were laughably ineffective tonight against the Timberwolves. I don’t think any of them even scored in the first quarter. With most of his firepower misfiring, Nate McMcmillan turned to his secret weapon, long buried in the depths of the bench, and unleashed him on an unsuspecting Aaron Brooks… Joe Young! We’ve all…
Read MoreKris Dunn 19 Points/11 Assists Full Highlights (12/31/2017)
I’m feeling a little lazy, and maybe I’ve already starting celebrating New Year’s with maybe some imbibements, so I pulled out an unused Kris Dunn description from last season which should be at least a little relevant today. Enjoy! Kris Dunn is a busteroni and cheese pizza, with a side of extra saucy bust sticks….
Read MoreJarrett Jack 15 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (12/30/2017)
My dear friends, I have sad news to tell you: With Corey Maggette out of the league, there is only one player left in the NBA who looks like Corey Maggette, and that player is Jarrett Jack. In the past, there have always been two players in the NBA who look like Corey Maggette: Corey…
Read MoreDario Saric 20 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (12/30/2017)
Dario Saric actually went 6-of-15 from the field in this game, which isn’t that good, but his budget LeBron statline (20/9/6) looked good enough that I made the highlight video anyway. Lately I’ve been punishing players who score lots of points but do so in an inefficient manner by not making vids for them. Like…
Read MoreTyreke Evans 22 Points/9 Assists Full Highlights (12/30/2017)
Tyreke “Reke of Putrefaction” Evans can officially be considered the Grizzlies’ best player, or at the very least their best scorer. Marc Gasol proved that he can’t sustain his historical efficiency while shouldering a heavier offensive load (he wanted the whole load, not just a taste), but Evans has shown that he can maintain a…
Read MoreRicky Rubio 16 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (12/30/2017)
Last night was a battle of Spanish point guards as the young (Ricky “Sexy Eyes” Rubio) faced off against the old (Jose Calderon). But who is the better player? Through the use of facts, double- and triple-checked for factuality, I will determine which player is officially better and present my FINAL OFFICIAL VERDICT and the…
Read MoreTyler Cavanaugh 13 Points Full Highlights (12/30/2017)
Are Tyler Cavanaugh’s eyes a really weird color or am I imagining things? I feel like he could walk into a Twilight convention and just slay absolute poon because every girl there would think he was a sparkly vampire. His paler-than-a-full-moon skin and rigid cheekbones wouldn’t help the situation there. Even I’m finding myself drawn…
Read MoreJamal Murray 31 Points Full Highlights (12/30/2017)
There was a time, early last year, when I considered Jamal Murray and Dejounte Murray to be roughly equivalent players, and I actually confused them for each other a couple times. Go ahead and laugh. They both started off so slowly, I had no way of determining their talent levels. That’s the only way I…
Read MoreJeff Green 22 Points Full Highlights (12/30/2017)
Is it a coincidence that Jeff “Green Energy” Green starts playing the most efficient ball of his career as soon as he is teamed up with LeBron James? Trick question! Or, more like, obvious-answer question, because the answer to it is so obvious that it doesn’t need to be asked. This is just more evidence…
Read MoreReggie Bullock Career High 22 Points Full Highlights (12/30/2017)
I bet there is a not-insignificant portion of NBA “fans” out there who don’t realize that a human named Reggie Bullock is playing in the league, much less realize that he’s starting for a playoff team. I don’t blame them. The Pistons on their best day are not very exciting (would be more exciting if…
