There was a stretch of this game where, in five possessions for the Hornets, Miles Bridges shot a wide open three on four of them (making two). The other one he got a tough and-one finish. The Lakers were simply not respecting his ability to make an outside shot, I don’t know why because he’s…

Marvin Williams 20 Points Full Highlights (12/14/2018)
Are there any Marvin Williams fans still out there? There were probably at least a few when he got drafted, because he was such a high pick, but are any of them continuing to fly high the Williams banner? If you’re out there, leave a comment stating your undying allegiance to W-Marv. I figure that…
Read MoreNicolas Batum 21 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (12/14/2018)
Having OFFICIALLY left his twenties and entered his thirties on the very day this game was played, Nicolas Batum is now OFFICIALLY an old man. No longer a young man with endless opportunity in front of him, Batum now enters the ranks of the elderly, content to live out their final years of declining health,…
Read MoreCody Zeller 21 Points Full Highlights (12/14/2018)
Cody Zeller has shown that he can throw down power pumps when he wants do. He’s had some sick poster dunks in the past, including one already this year from a month ago, so why is he content to do the wimpiest dunks ever? I think he’s taking the ability to dunk for granted, or…
Read MoreMalik Beasley 16 Points Full Highlights (12/7/2018)
Malik Beasley is now OFFICIALLY the best Beasley in the NBA. With Michael Beasley permanently, and unfairly, affixed to the bench in Lakerland, Malik sort of wins by default. However, even if Michael Beasley were to get minutes, I don’t think he would be as effective as Malik is. In case you missed it, Malik…
Read MoreMiles Bridges 16 Points Full Highlights (12/2/2018)
The Charlotte Hornets are in the early lead for “worst camera angles” award among NBA teams this season. I am in a position to judge this award accurately, as I see tons of footage from every team. Usually the Atlanta Hawks are the clear winners, but a new challenger has emerged, and they’re ready and…
Read MoreFrank Kaminsky 19 Points Full Highlights (12/2/2018)
What’s going on with Frank Kaminsky? He’s been collecting a lot of DNP-CDs this year despite the Hornets’ center rotation being quite assy. Is the trio of Cody Zeller, Willy Hernangomez, and Bismack Biyombo really enough to push him out of the rotation entirely? No way. Cody Zeller is supposedly really god-damn good, fine. But…
Read MoreTony Parker 20 Points/9 Assists Full Highlights (11/30/2018)
There were probably reasons why Tony Parker decided not to stick around in San Antonio, but I don’t remember them off the top of my head. They must’ve been pretty good though, because by departing his only franchise and playing for a new team, he lost the 30 percent career-quality buff one-team players get at…
Read MoreJeremy Lamb 24 Points Full Highlights (11/30/2018)
I’m looking right now at all the NBA players averaging 15 points per game, and it’s challenging my hypothesis that Jeremy Lamb was the quietest 15 ppg scorer this year. I was like “man, I bet no one besides Hornets fans and maybe some OKC stragglers realize how good he’s doing this year”, and I’m…
Read MoreCody Zeller 19 Points Full Highlights (11/28/2018)
These are the kinds of games Cody Zeller needs to have to remind us all that, even though he looks like an old man, he’s still in his athletic prime and can still overpower defenders with his athleticism. These are also the kinds of games Cody Zeller needs to have to convince me that he’s…
