I can’t tell if it’s a good or bad thing that the Boston crowd was chanting “trust the process” as Joel Embiid was shooting free throws near the end of the first half. Maybe it’s neither. Maybe it’s a third option: “ironic”. Or a fourth option: “trying to piss of Jae Crowder even more”. In…
Read MoreDennis Schröder 23 Points Full Highlights (1/5/2017)
“So, uh, I guess you heard I got traded,” Kyle Korver said awkwardly to his teammate Dennis Schröder. “Yeah, too bad,” Dennis said, feigning sympathy. “But NBA is business. It is not there to protect feelings of players.” “So, I’m saying bye to all the guys, and then I’m outta here,” Kyle continued. Dennis realized…
Read MoreTrevor Booker 16 Points Full Highlights (1/5/2016)
This video mostly exists to chronicle the emergence of Trevor “T-Booker” Booker’s three-point shot. In the past three games, T-Booker is 6-10 from deeptown. His game log is littered with 0-of-1 and 0-of-2 outings from beyond, so I actually buckled down with my calculator and did the math to find out what his three point…
Read MoreEvan Turner 20 Points Full Highlights (1/5/2017)
ESPN’s Real Plus-Minus stat, which purports to measure on-court impact in terms of points gained or lost every 100 possessions (I bet they just pay some intern to make up the numbers), really hates Evan Turner. He is the sixth-worst player in the league if you go by that stat, sitting at a cool -4.27….
Read MoreJustin Hamilton 16 Points Full Highlights (1/5/2017)
Justin Hamilton’s haircut looks like it was the result of him watching one too many Nsync videos as a kid. All it needs is for the tips to be frosted instead of unfrosted and he’d be like a seven-foot-tall Justin Timberlake circa 1998. While every other white guy in the NBA has some kind of…
Read MoreNene 18 Points Full Highlights (1/5/2017)
I really liked Nene “Graybeard” Nolastname back in his Denver days. That seems like so long ago, but at the same time, it doesn’t seem like he played for the Wizards for very long at all. You’re telling me he spent over 4 seasons there? No way. It was one or two at most, and…
Read MoreSeth Curry 16 Points Full Highlights (1/5/2017)
It sucks, but since Stephen Curry isn’t doing nearly as well as he did last year, the hype train for his less-talented sibling has completely derailed. Seth Curry didn’t do much for the Kings last year, but when he did, you can bet that every NBA fan and their mother wanted to see the highlights….
Read MoreSpencer Hawes 18 Points Full Highlights (1/5/2017)
It may come as a surprise to Hornets fan, but there was a period of Spencer Hawes’ career where he could be considered to have played “good”. I’m thinking specifically of his 2013-14 campaign, where he averaged 13 ppg for the 76ers (who cycled through 23 [!!!!!] players that season), then got traded to the…

Read MoreTobias Harris 25 Points Full Highlights (1/5/2017)
I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again: Tobias Harris needs to be more aggressive on offense. I don’t care whose toes he has to step on for this to happen. Someone needs to step up and be the alpha wolf on the Pistons, and it can’t be Reggie Jackson, because of reason. The…
