“The more things change, the more they stay the same” – Some Really Sage Dude of Antiquity We have a whole new NBA season, full of new ugly faces on new teams, new ugly jerseys and new ugly logos to make fun of, and a new ugly NBA website that blows donkey dong. And yet,…
Read MoreAaron Gordon 17 Points/2 Dunks Full Highlights (10/28/2016)
I feel like the Orlando Magic put all their eggs in the “Aaron Gordon is for sure gonna bust out really hard” basket. Look at their roster, look at the moves they made in the offseason. It’s like they’re building around some sort of centerpiece, a franchise cornerstone. But who is that cornerstone? It can’t…
Read MoreHarrison Barnes Career High 31 Points Full Highlights (10/28/2016)
There’s no way that even the most ardent of Mavericks diehards expected this kind of performance from Harrison Barnes this early in the season. Not after the preseason he had. I know, I know, you don’t need to tell me that preseason stats mean nothing. But his were just SO BAD. If you told me…
Read MoreT.J. Warren Career High 30 Points Full Highlights (10/28/2016)
I have one question, and one question only: Why do the Suns guards hate T.J. Warren? Why? Why? Tell us the reason! In case you didn’t notice (which is really quite a glaring failure on your part, but whatever), Warren Peace scored 30 tonight. A career high. He had never scored more points in the…
Read MoreTaj Gibson 18 Points Full Highlights (10/27/2016)
This is Taj Gibson’s eighth year in Chicago. Eight years! Tenures that long in the NBA are rare and are usually reserved for franchise cornerstones. Not saying Taj Gibson isn’t a franchise cornerstone, but…he isn’t a franchise cornerstone. He’s simply been a good enough role player that the Bulls have never seen the point in…
Read MoreMaurice Harkless 21 Points/3 Dunks Full Highlights (10/27/2016)
Moe Harkless is carving out a niche for himself as a hustly-type small forward who can’t really shoot but can score around the basket sometimes and throw down sick slams more than sometimes. If the Blazers ever want to be contenders with Lillard and McCollum, they’ll probably need to find an upgrade for Mo Flow,…
Read MoreMarreese Speights 15 Points Clippers Debut Full Highlights (10/27/2016)
The Clippers have been trying for years now to get some kind of stretch-five that doesn’t absolutely suck. Marreese “Speighetti” Speights is just the latest attempt in what is has been a long string of abject failures. Speighetti does have a championship pedigree, which theoretically has some value I guess, but it is too early…
Read MoreTim Hardaway Jr. 19 Points Full Highlights (10/27/2016)
Everyone knows that 20 points is the official cutoff point for where highlights become really cool. 20 may be an arbitrary number caused by our base-10 counting system, but that’s just how it is. Objectively, 19 is only one worse than 20. Our primitive little monkey brains, though, interpret it as a full 10 worse….
Read MoreJordan Clarkson 25 Points Full Highlights (10/26/2016)
OFFICIAL “NEXT KOBE” ON THE LAKERS POWER RANKINGS 1. Jordan Clarkson. This guy definitely has the scoring skills to be the next Kobe for the Lakers. That’s not to say he’ll be as good as Kobe, just that he’ll adequately fill the role of “scoring SG” for the team. There is even a ready-built nickname…
Read MoreJustise Winslow 15 Points Full Highlights (10/26/2016)
Forget about the old big three. There is a new big three in Miami-town, and it is comprised of the following players: 1. Hassan Whiteside 2. Goran Dragic 3. …Justise Winslow? Yes! That big three has everything that the old big three gave you, plus they play defense. I say that even though I don’t…
