What is the point of dunking? Sure, there are plenty of obvious reasons: it scores points in an efficient manner, it looks impressive, and it is fun to do. But, as far as I know, nobody has ever looked deeper into the matter, to glean the societal and philosophical implications of the basketball shot known…

Andre Drummond 26 Points/26 Rebounds Full Highlights (4/11/2014)
Apparently there is a freshly leaked sexy pic of Andre Drummond’s former girlfriend, Jennette McCurdy. The timing of this is interesting, since Drummond was unceremoniously dumped somewhat recently, but before the pic in question was released. He denies all involvement, of course. But we all know the truth. Andre has rendered the world a great…

Guys, listen up. 6’10” isn’t even that tall. I mean, it’s pretty tall, but there are a lot of similarly tall dudes in the NBA. So how the heck does Andre Drummond get all these offensive rebounds? It’s not like other players just stop rebounding as soon as he gets near them. They’re trying their…

So apparently Andre Drummond is no longer going out with Jennette McCurdy. It escaped my notice that that relationship ended a long time ago. I can imagine the conversation: “Oh Andre you have so many good qualities but how am I supposed to tell my friends that I’m going out with a guy who can’t…

Andre Drummond really needs to work on his free throw shooting. Really really. 0 for 8 is unacceptable. I don’t care how many dunks he can throw down. If he can’t make teams pay for fouling him then eventually he’s gonna get hacked every time. Don’t bring up Shaq as an example of a successful…

Andre Drummond is the only good player on the Pistons. There. I said it. Here’s some other players on the Pistons that you might think are good, listed with the shortcomings that cause them to not be good. Josh Smith – Has no concept of a “good shot” and is played out of position so…

Why are the Pistons so bad at defense this year? With Monroe, Drummond, and Smith on the court they are horrific. Is it because Drummond is still learning the game, Monroe doesn’t give a crap, and Smith is overrated on that end? Probably. I kind of expected the struggles on offense, though. Drummond is a…

The hype train for Andre Drummond has seemed to slow down a bit after it careened recklessly through his rookie year. People were talking about “Highest rookie PER ever” and “Next Shaq” and claiming multiple all-star appearances for him. Never mind that PER is the kind of thing that loves Drummond-esque players and Shaq actually…

Remember when Brandon Jennings said it was going to be lob city in Detroit? That was a lie. Well, there are some lobs being thrown, but Jennings is not the one throwing them. He’s too busy jacking up shots like a maniac. It’s a good thing that the remainder of the team outside Jennings are…

One of the biggest news items of the summer for vapid celebrity worshipers was that Andre Drummond was courting some Nickelodeon teen star. Someone named “Jeanette McCurdy”. First question is, how can she be a celebrity if I’ve never heard of her? Second question is, does she even realize how much of a beast her…
