OFFICIAL DTB ANNOUNCEMENT: I am OFFICIALLY keeping Bam Adebayo on my channel. For now. But I’m watching his stats very closely. In the month of December, he’s putting up 19/11/5 on 56% shooting, and that shooting percentage is actually LOWER than his percentages for October and November. The way he’s playing right now is, simply…

Bam Adebayo 23 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (12/18/2019)
Since I had to drop Nikola Jokic from my channel, I’ve seen a lot less traffic on my videos from Serbs. Sure, there’s still a couple of Serbian NBA players who I show love to (when I think about Nemanja Bjelica, visions of eggplant emojis dance in front of my eyes for some reason), but…

Russell Westbrook may have worked very hard to show the entire world that triple-doubles are a near-worthless statistical non-achievement that any player can get as long as they try (or statpad) hard enough, but that doesn’t mean that I’m not getting excited to witness the birth of yet another triple-double machine in the NBA. Often,…

The list of NBA centers who have acquired 30-point triple-doubles (with assists, not blocks) is illustrious. Wilt Chamberlain, king of statpadders, is obviously there a bunch. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, heck yeah. Don’t know for sure, but Bill Russell probably did it a hunred times and then a hundred more times without actually getting the 10 points….

I’m looking at the stats right now, and what I’m seeing is that Bam Adebayo’s third season and Giannis Antetokounmpo’s third season are quite comparable. Per minute, Adebayo has got a significant edge in rebounding, Giannis has got a slight edge in scoring, and they’re about the same in assists, steals, and blocks. I feel…

Basketball-reference’s MVP tracker is really fun in the beginning of the season. It’s still fun as the season goes on (can you believe we’re like a quarter of the way through already? madness…), but early on, you can always find random players on it. Devonte’ Graham was there right at the very start, but what…
Read MoreBam Adebayo 18 Points Full Highlights (12/3/2019)
Every game that passes with Bam Adebayo playing at a pseudo-All-Star level renders my scathing nickname of “Bum Adebayo” less scathing and more petty. Not that I think he’ll be an All-Star, because he probably won’t be, but his averages of 14/10/4/1/1 on extremely efficient shooting certainly raise my eyebrows, being that I am a…
Read MoreBam Adebayo 17 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (11/27/2019)
I was all set to cease my highlight-making excursion with the P.J. Washington video that was uploaded prior to this one. The fact of Bam Adebayo’s 17-point, 8-assist was known to me, but I kept making excuses to myself so that I wouldn’t have to do it. “Oh, he had too many free throws.” “Nah,…

Most people would agree that Bam Adebayo has been more valuable to the Heat than Hassan Whiteside ever was in his later years with the team. I’ve taken the liberty of putting together a list to make their stark differences even starker: THINGS THAT HASSAN WHITESIDE DID THAT BAM ADEBAYO DOES NOT DO: -Not try…

I’m totally shook right now. I was struggling to come up with any kind of narrative for this description, so, on a whim, I went to basketball-reference to look up Bam Adebayo’s on-off stats. My assumption was that, since he’s a high-efficiency scorer who can pass and play defense, the Heat would struggle whenever he…
