Whenever broadcasters talk about Michael Beasley, they talk about his “talent”, as if that’s the only thing he is: a player who possesses talent. That’s misguided and, frankly, insulting to B-Easy. If I was a commentator, here’s what I would talk about: the fact that Beasley once pissed off LeBron James by eating ice cream…

“My dearest Dr. Smith, As a fellow scholar of the olden NBA days, you were the first person I thought to contact when I made my most recent discovery.

Read MoreDavid Lee 20 Points Full Highlights (3/16/2016)
When was the last time a waiver-wire signing -any waiver-wire signing- worked out for the team acquiring the player? Not just “oh this guy didn’t totally suck all the time for us so I guess this worked out”, but honest-to-god improved the team and reinvigorated the fanbase. There are probably a lot of examples, actually….
Read MoreTim Frazier 14 Points/9 Assists Pelicans Debut Full Highlights (3/16/2016)
When one searches for “Tim Frazier” on YouTube, one finds that most of the results are D-League highlights uploaded by the official NBA D-League channel. That’s cool, I guess. There can never be enough highlights, right? Right. I read an article somewhat recently that detailed one of the NBA’s new projects: automatic highlight compilation. And…
Read MoreSeth Curry 11 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (3/16/2016)
Time for a thought experiment: How many assists would a hypothetical point guard on the best team in the league acquire when presented with these targets to pass to: Klay Thompson (elite shooter) Andrew Bogut (lobs) Draymond Green (jack-of-all-trades) Harrison Barnes (pretty much Andrew Wiggins) Surely the point guard of that team would put up…
Read MoreDennis Schröder 18 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (3/16/2016)
Dënniß ßchrööder wants to have his own team. I want him to have his own team. Hawks fans want him to have his own team. Everybody wants him to have his own team. So why doesn’t he have his own team yet? There’s still plenty of time before the season ends where Dënniß can be…
Read MoreDoug McDermott 20 Points Full Highlights (3/16/2016)
How quickly things change in a year. If Doug McDermott scored 20 in a single game at any point last season, I would have been so hyped. Beyond hyped. A rookie scorer finally balling out and proving the haters wrong? People would have been lining up to see highlights of something like that. Doug McDermott…
Read MoreBismack Biyombo 12 Points/3 Blocks Full Highlights (3/15/2016)
Why does Michael Jordan hate Bismack Biyombo? What kind of twisted “talent-evaluator” would fail to see the pure potential oozing out of Bismack’s pores? First he ruined Kwame Brown, and he was well on his way to ruining this promising talent before Toronto stepped in. I’ve ragged on Bismack in the past for sucking on…
Read MoreJabari Parker 18 Points Full Highlights (3/15/2016)
I had this big whole story typed out involving Jabari Parker turning 21 and thus being able to drink legally, except that he’s Mormon so he can’t. His teammates were being real dicks to him, let me tell you, in this story. I don’t want to give away too much, but there was a scene…
Read MoreSean Kilpatrick 19 Points Full Highlights (3/15/2016)
Sean Kilpatrick, officially, needs to score at least 20 before I’ll consider making highlights of him again. The market has become saturated with vids of him scoring 19, and I fear that any more after this will cause the bubble to burst, devaluing Kilswitch highlights forever. This cannot be allowed to happen. Good news is…
