I really thought Mirza Teletovic had turned a corner with that 34 point game he had a while back. I was mistaken. His minutes, and thus his scoring, are as inconsistent as ever. There must be some fatal flaw to his game, that I’m not seeing, which causes his lack of playing time. Could it…

Marcus Thornton 20 Points Full Highlights (3/23/2014)
Mirza Teletovic has exclusive rights to the nickname “MT3”. Which makes sense, I guess. He shoots threes. His initials are MT. But would it better to give that nickname to Marcus Thornton? He has the same attributes! I don’t which of them is the better player, but Mirza hasn’t been doing all that much lately…
Read MoreJorge Gutierrez 10 Points Full Highlights (3/21/2014)
With Gustavo Ayon out for the rest of forever due to drinking the water in Mexico, Mexican NBA fans need a new object to direct their nationalistic fervor upon. Is that object Jorge Gutierrez? Yes. There’s no other choice. Mexican nationalistic fervor is renowned for being very intense. If it is not released onto Mexican…

“Hey, Andrei, crazy that stuff going on in Ukraine, isn’t it?” Marcus asked his teammate. “You know Marcus, I don’t really pay attention to that stuff.” Andrei replied. “I just try to stay out of it and play basketball.” Andrei’s lack of enthusiasm for the subject did not deter Marcus. “Yeah, what with Russia invading…
Read MoreMirza Teletovic 17 Points/3 Blocks Full Highlights (3/12/2014)
Nickname jerseys: the dumbest idea ever? The whole concept of nicknames for a player is not a good one anyway. Only a very scant few are worthwhile. “King James”, are you freaking kidding me. “MT3” isn’t very good either. If you’re gonna have a nickname at least have it not involve your own name in…

Andray “Blotch” Blatche was hated during his Wizards days. Absolutely hated. I hated him, you hated him, Wizards fans hated him, his mom hated him. But now that Blotch is part of a team where there are a lot of players who are more of a problem than he is, nobody even cares about him…
Read MoreMason Plumlee Career High 22 Points/5 Dunks Full Highlights (2/9/2014)
I don’t even know who Brook Lopez is. Is he a basketball player? It doesn’t matter. Mason Plumlee is the future. He is the light that will guide the Nets out of the darkness. There’s just one problem. He turns really pink out there. Like, Gordon Hayward levels of pinkness. After a few minutes of…
Read MoreAlan Anderson 22 Points Full Highlights (2/6/2014)
Alan Anderson. What is there to say about this guy? In a perfect world, he provides scoring off the bench, but in reality, he’s an inefficient chucker. He’s so inefficient that Toronto didn’t want him after last season, but they kept around Rudy Gay and DeMar DeRozan. He’s also pretty old for a guy only…
Read MoreMirza Teletovic 20 Points/5 Threes Full Highlights (2/3/2014)
Hey, the Nets have actually been doing pretty good lately! All the hype from the beginning of the season is finally being justified. Kind of. But Mirza Teletovic, since that 34 point explosion, has been in a bit of a shooting slump, hitting 3 of 16 threes in his last 4 games. But everyone knows…
