Give me one reason, JUST ONE, that I shouldn’t be hyped as heck about Chris McCullough after seeing him score 13 points against the Clippers (the best team in the league, FYI). That reason can’t involve small sample sizes, quality of competition faced, inconsistent performance, inability to see the court for the least talented team…
Read MoreYogi Ferrell 13 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (11/14/2016)
The Bucks traded a GOD DAMN first round pick for Greivis Vasquez. DAMMIT. Now the Nets have waived Trashquez so they can pick up… Yogi Ferrell???? That means, following the application of the transitive property, that the Bucks traded a FRIGGIN first round pick for Yogi EVERLOVING Ferrell. I sometimes wonder why I was cursed…
Read MoreVince Carter 20 Points/1 Dunk Full Highlights (11/14/2016)
Another 20 point game for the NBA’s oldest player. How is this happening? I didn’t want to admit it to myself, but Vince Carter looked kinda done last year. Not totally done, mind you. If he wants he can play until he’s 45. It’s just, you know, he didn’t look very effective at all on…
Read MoreJoe Ingles Career High 20 Points Full Highlights (11/14/2016)
The more things change, the more they stay the same. We have a whole new NBA season with all the unexpectedness that implies, yet Joe Ingles remains still the least-NBA-looking player of any player in the NBA. Check out Jinglin’ Joe’s drives to the basket in this game. How did those even work? He was…
Read MoreDion Waiters 27 Points Full Highlights (11/14/2016)
Dion Waiters received a ballot from the elderly attendant at the polling place. He muttered a barely-audible thanks, which was met with nothing but a tight-lipped smile. He hadn’t expected much more. Ever since he stepped into this middle-school gymnasium, there had be nothing but a few hushed words, the old ladies performing their duties…
Read MoreKristaps Porzingis 24 Points Full Highlights (11/14/2016)
Early candidate for the “Freudian Slip of the Year” award: Mike Breen at 1:46 of this video says “on cue Nowitzki nails a three pointer and he’s got twenty-two” in reference to Kristaps Porzingis’ made triple. Bang! I guess we all know your feeling on the career trajectory of Krispy, Mr. Breen! Other early candidates…
Read MoreAron Baynes 20 Points Full Highlights (11/14/2016)
Is Aron Baynes, at this very moment, the most ridiculous looking NBA player? His pink-skinned doughy face adorned with a gigantic ginger beard and a tiny little topknot does not scream “normal looking dude” to me. Big beards and small hair-tuft things are en vogue. Someone probably told Baynes that, or he figured it out…
Read MoreElfrid Payton 23 Points/9 Assists Full Highlights (11/13/2016)
Looks like the only thing Elfrid Payton needed to get back on track after a string of poor outings was to be guarded by Russell Westbrook. The first few clips of this vid speak for themselves. Westbrook gets absolutely TOASTED by Payton, who doesn’t even look like he’s trying that hard. I guess that makes…
Read MoreJamal Murray 19 Points Full Highlights (11/13/2016)
I almost missed this performance by Jamal Murray. I had taken a look at the boxscore with about 2 minutes to go, didn’t notice anything that I wanted to highlight, and forgot about the game. Instead of doing highlights, I played some Rocket League. That was fun. Then, for some reason, I went back to…
Read MoreNemanja Bjelica Career High 24 Points Full Highlights (11/13/2016)
Does Nemanja Bjelica ever look happy? Like, ever? You’d think that these career-high 24 points would be reason to at least smile even a little bit. But no. Just the same semi-sad but mostly blank expression. Maybe he heard the Minnesota commentators ragging on him for not being a very good power forward and got…
