Everyone was getting all hyped up over the upcoming matchup between Lauri Markkanen and Kristaps Porzingis, and they’re even more hyped up now that it’s over, and I just don’t get why. I think their problem is twofold. Problem 1: People like to compare Markkanen to Porzingis because of… reasons? I don’t know, but it’s…

Denzel Valentine 19 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (1/8/2018)
Denzel Valentine is shooting almost 40% from the three-point line, but I don’t feel like there’s much buzz around him being a “good” three-point shooter. Maybe it’s because we’re living in an era where a player can conceivably shoot 45% from three on high volume, or maybe it’s because Denzel has yet to have a…
Read MoreKris Dunn 19 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (1/8/2018)
Kris “The Dunnwich Horror” Dunn is playing so well right now that it’s easy to forget that he actually played like total garbage his rookie year, even though he had a long college career and was supposed to come into the league further along in his development than his draftmates. Every time I watch him…
Read MoreBobby Portis 22 Points Full Highlights (1/8/2018)
Bobby Portis must have taken some notes from Nikola Mirotic before tonight’s game: when in doubt, shoot the ball, and when not in doubt, shoot the ball also because who knows if your teammates are going to pass it back to you? Alternatively, he could have taken notes from my friend Dylan who never stops…

“Dear Mr. Holiday, I regret to inform you that you have disqualified yourself from any further highlight videos based on your shameful performance on January 5th, 2018 against the Dallas Mavericks. You are likely to be aware of the incident to which I refer, but, for legal reasons, I will disclose it here: You are…
Read MoreKris Dunn Career High 32 Points/9 Assists Full Highlights (1/5/2018)
Remember when the Bulls had a sweet inter-team point guard battle going on between Kris Dunn and Jerian Grant? Early in the season they looked to be about equal; now Dunn has so thoroughly crushed Grant that his brother Jerami is feeling it all the way over in Oklahoma City. Dunn took over the game…
Read MoreJustin Holiday 26 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (1/3/2018)
The three-chuckingest part of Justin Holiday’s season is gone now. It’s sad to see, him not shooting hundreds of threes per 36, but the moderation of his attempts has directly corresponded with the Bulls winning games. We’ve all learned a valuable leason here: sometimes more threes doesn’t mean more wins. Even if he isn’t launching…
Read MoreLauri Markkanen 22 Points Full Highlights (1/3/2018)
Man, I’m looking at Lauri Markkanen’s games this season, and he’s consistent as frick. Only 4 single-digit scoring games over the whole season so far? While averaging 15 per game? That’s really nice for a rookie. At least, it feels like it’s really nice. Maybe that’s what everyone does and I just don’t notice it….

It is time to get mad at NBA referees. Just like the last time this happened, and the time before that, and all the times to come. If we get mad, something will happen. It hasn’t yet, but it will. We just have to get really, really mad at NBA referees and let them know…
Read MoreLauri Markkanen 19 Points Full Highlights (1/1/2018)
Attention: the move at 0:10 of this video is one of the sickest rookie plays of the year. So smooth, so under control, and we didn’t even get a replay of it. That’s one bad thing about these new timeout rules: not as much time for sick replays! I wanted several angles of Lauri Markkanen…
