Injuries are the most unfair thing ever. If the Grizzlies make the playoffs and still don’t have Gasol or Conley back, they will probably get smashed up pretty good even if Z-Bo returns to playoff form and scores forty in every game. They just don’t have the talent to compete with another good team that…
Read MoreAlexis Ajinca 18 Points Full Highlights (3/30/2016)
How does this phrase sound to you: “Alexis Ajinca” Not very exciting, right? Just another basketball player whose only notable attributes are that he’s foreign and gigantic. What about a slightly modified version of that phrase: “First-option Alexis Ajinca” Now we’re talking! It has always been a want of mine (and, surely, also a deeply-held…
Read MoreNemanja Bjelica 14 Points Full Highlights (3/30/2016)
Alright, here’s the deal. Nemanja Bjelica scored 17 points in a game early in the season. For whatever reason, I did not compile highlights of the performance. Mistakes were made, we all have regrets, yada yada blah blah whatever. That’s in the past now. Nothing to be done about it. No use crying over spilled…
Read MoreJ.J. Barea 26 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (3/30/2016)
Is it too late for the Mavericks to win the chip this year? Obviously not. All they have to do is make the playoffs as the 8th seed, reverse history by beating the Warriors, and then it’s basically a free ride to a chip. Then it will finally be revealed who the REAL driving force…
Read MoreJames Ennis 13 Points Pelicans Debut Full Highlights (3/30/2016)
I’m sorry. These highlights just really, really suck. I was hyped for James Ennis on the Pelicans, and I still am a bit, but him hitting some threes and tipping in a miss doesn’t make for very good watching. Also, I apologize for not hitting my promised 1-minute duration for any video. Dammit. I just…
Read MoreCristiano Felicio 8 Points Full Highlights (3/29/2016)
Eight points and five rebounds in six minutes? You can talk to me about “small sample sizes” all you want but the only thing I’m hearing is that those are total beast numbers. Judging by this video, if your team has a bunch of dudes on it who can’t make layups, Cristiano Felicio is your…
Read MoreDewayne Dedmon 15 Points/5 Dunks Full Highlights (3/29/2016)
Dewayne Dedmon is, from what I can tell, just a worse-paid and less-featured version of DeAndre Jordan who doesn’t get his apparent skills inflated by playing with Chris Paul. Dedmon can catch lobs, rebound, and block shots just like his more well-known counterpart. He just doesn’t get to start because of some foreign guy who…
Read MoreIan Mahinmi 18 Points Full Highlights (3/29/2016)
I stare in disbelief at the words displayed on my computer screen. I don’t realize that I am speaking as a moaned “no…no…” tumbles from my mouth. Ian Mahinmi has scored eighteen points yet again, and thus, I am obliged to make his highlights. “I’ll do a different video,” I say to myself as my…
Read MoreMarcus Morris 24 Points Full Highlights (3/29/2016)
If there’s one thing we can determine from this video, it is this: Josh Huestis cannot hold Marcus Morris at all. Not a very profound thing, since Huestis and Morris are not likely to be matched up again this season, but a thing nonetheless. If there’s one thing we can’t determine from this video, it…
Read MoreAndrew Nicholson Career High 24 Points Full Highlights (3/29/2016)
You can’t stop me. I cannot be stopped. I am unstoppable. The highlights of Andrew Nicholson scoring a career-high 24 points are rendering as we speak, and soon, will be uploaded for the whole world to see. I don’t care that the world has told me again and again that they don’t care about Nicholson…
