Spencer Dinwiddie. 6MOY of the Year. Final destination. Sure, there are some other worthy candidates. But does anyone really want another midget chucker to win the award? And I bet there are still going to be people who vote for Jamal Crawford just based on name recognition. We need to start working NOW to get…

Spencer Dinwiddie 24 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (12/23/2018)
“Dear Santa, Your friend DTB doesn’t ask for much. You will notice that I have not even sent a wish list to you this year. That is how minimal my material wants are. So, while you and your elves get together the large piles of presents for the more consumeristically-minded little boys and girls out…

I must say, that is a really good stinky face by Rodions Kurucs. I’ve seen the master at work (Giannis, if you couldn’t figure it out), but the stinky face depicted in the thumbnail is right up there with the best of them. Just another reason to love this rookie from Latvia, add “indirect taunting…
Read MoreRodions Kurucs 24 Points Full Highlights (12/21/2018)
It is well known that Knicks fans, in their galling hubris, booed Kristaps Porzingis when he got drafted. Or, if they weren’t booing, they were crying. Did Nets fans do similarly for Rodions Kurucs when he got drafted? I would guess not, because he was the 40th pick, not the 4th, and because the Nets…
Read MoreSpencer Dinwiddie 27 Points Full Highlights (12/19/2018)
I will admit that, in the past, I have been too loose with the term “Revenge Game”. When a player plays well against a team he used to be on, I automatically assume it is a Revenge Game even if there were no hard feelings between team and player. Going forward, I will strive to…
Read MoreD’Angelo Russell 22 Points/13 Assists Full Highlights (12/18/2018)
D’Angelo Russell has made a lot of progress. Back in his Lakers days, if he had double-digit assists or close to it, it was a guarantee that a literal majority of them would be because Nick Young shot the ball as soon as he touched it no matter the situation. I was critical of the…
Read MoreJoe Harris 19 Points Full Highlights (12/18/2018)
If you want, you can skip right to the part of the video that everyone has to see, Joe Harris’ circus shot at 0:59. That’s the shot that would make ESPN’s top 10 plays of the night, if ESPN still showed highlights and didn’t just have talking heads saying stupid stuff at each other back…
Read MoreJared Dudley 16 Points Full Highlights (12/16/2018)
Somehow, the Nets are finding room in their rotation to give Jared Dudley 20 minutes per game. Maybe that’s why they’re not a good team this year? Because they’re giving a starting job (recently revoked) and a bunch of playing time to a do-nothing chubby vet? Savvy vetness can carry you a long way in…
Read MoreD’Angelo Russell 32 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (12/16/2018)
Who is this commentator? I know why one of the regular Nets commentators isn’t doing it tonight, because I totally heard him on an NFL broadcast (which one is his side hustle?), but what about the other regular one? Did he die? That would make some sense, because this new guy sounds really subdued. Either…
Read MoreJoe Harris 19 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (12/14/2018)
At 45.3%, Joe Harris currently eighth in the NBA in three-point percentage among players who qualify. While 8th in the entire league is pretty good, I honestly expected that percentage to net him a higher spot. For example, last year, that same percentage would have been good for second in the league behind Darren Collison…
