Buddy Hield has hit the rookie wall. Again. I think this is the third time; there was a smallish one right at the start of the season, which he plowed right into first thing, and there was another bigger one in November which took him a lot longer to get over, then there was clear…
Read MoreJrue Holiday 30 Points Full Highlights (1/31/2017)
In the midst of all these teams imploding, I would’ve liked to see the Pelicans beat the Raptors tonight. Man, I beat the Raptors would’ve imploded so hard. Team-only meetings with Kyle Lowry not invited, angry quotes to the press, cloaks and daggers involving separate posses in the front office, riots in the streets of…
Read MoreC.J. Watson 18 Points Full Highlights (1/30/2017)
There are multiple C.J. Watson highlight videos on my channel that have failed to reach the “1,000 view” threshold, which is the official line between “this video is a good video” and “this video is a war crime and should never be seen by anybody ever”. MULTIPLE videos. This indicates one thing to me: that…
Read MoreNik Stauskas 16 Points Full Highlights (1/30/2017)
Nik “Sucksass” Stauskas proved my assertion that he is a poor man’s Wayne Ellington by recording a very bare statline last night: no rebounds, and just one assist, one steal, and one block, to go with four fouls and sixteen points. Unlike, say, a Robert Covington, who always fills up the stat sheet with a…
Read MoreMarquese Chriss 20 Points Full Highlights (1/30/2017)
Marquese Chriss shows it all in this game. Dunks (of the windmill and non-windmill varieties), Euro-steps, midrange jumpers, threes, everything is present and accounted for other than footwork-heavy post moves. Given Chriss’ newly displayed offensive versatility, it is time for me to reveal the nickname that I have been crafting in secret for ere these…
Read MoreYogi Ferrell 19 Points Full Highlights (1/30/2017)
There are two ways to approach playing time during a 10-day contract in the NBA. You can play within yourself as much as possible, limiting mistakes and showing you can sacrifice individual success for the team. Or, you can call your own number whenever you get the ball, shooting ballsy shots and making the coaches…
Read MoreDario Saric 17 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (1/30/2017)
Now this is what I’m talking about. These are some LEGIT Dario “Chef” Saric highlights. People kept talking about how good of a playmaker he was, now he’s finally showing it. Some of these passes are dope. One, in particular, is so dope that I showed it even though it didn’t lead to an assist…
Read MoreRicky Rubio 22 Points/6 Threes/8 Assists Full Highlights (1/30/2017)
Prior to tonight’s games, there had been 114 instances of a player hitting six or more threes. All the expected names are there, and there aren’t any really unexpected names there barring Rashad Vaughn. Depending on your opinion of Vaughn (which really shouldn’t be very high, unless you’re me, dammit Kidd give him more minutes),…
Read MoreWillie Cauley-Stein 17 Points Full Highlights (1/30/2017)
Two good games in a row for Willie Cauley-Stein? I didn’t hear very many people calling him a bust (yet), but there were probably a few out there who have now been totally proven wrong in their judgment of WCS. Would a bust score 13 and 17 in consecutive games on a combined 14 of…
Read MoreNik Stauskas 15 Points Full Highlights (1/29/2017)
Nik “Sucksass” Stauskas looked like a vastly improved player through the first month of the season. He was shooting 50% from the field, 45% from three, and it seemed like he might actually live up to the potential that caused the Kings (LoL) to draft him eighth overall (double LoL with extra lmao) back in…
