Lauri Markkanen 25 Points Full Highlights (11/1/2017)

The Bulls’ watchability goes way up if Lauri “Suomen Markka” Markkanen can do stuff like this on a nightly basis. Which he can, obviously, because we’ve now seen 6 games out of him and they all have been at least okay. Coming into the season, I was planning on watching exactly 0 Bulls games. That’s…

Lauri Markkanen 14 Points Full Highlights (10/26/2017)

The Bulls have finally dredged up enough competency from the murky depths of their being to win a game. Maybe I shouldn’t say “finally”, because it only took them four games to do it, which is way fewer than what I expected. I was thinking, you know, maybe post All-Star break before the scored more…

David Nwaba 15 Points Full Highlights (10/26/2017)

I admit, I didn’t think David Nwaba would find another NBA team to play for after the Lakers waived him. A European team, sure, he would probably dominate over there. But not an NBA team. How many squads need a 6-4 dude who plays like a big? I love his hustle and his heart and…

Kay Felder 13 Points Full Highlights (10/24/2017)

I love it when narratives write themselves. It makes my job much easier as a purveyor of basketball insight (insight which often varies from not insightful at all to downright untruthful). And the narrative for this performance is this: Kay Felder just totally had a revenge game against the Cavaliers. You see, he used to…

Lauri Markkanen 19 Points Full Highlights (10/24/2017)

Is there any NBA fan on earth who isn’t getting hyped for Lauri “Suomen Markka” Markkanen right now? Unless you’re living under a rock where no highlights reach you except for LeBron’s and Curry’s, I find it hard to believe that you couldn’t resist becoming at least a little hyped for what Markkanen is doing…

Justin Holiday 25 Points Full Highlights (10/24/2017)

I never thought, when Justin Holiday came into the league, that I would ever be making highlights of him scoring a good amount of points as the first option (????maybe????) on a team. It’s really amazing. From mega scrub who only made a team because his brother was on it to out of the league…

Lauri Markkanen 13 Points Full Highlights (10/21/2017)

How many times do you think Lauri “Mämmi” Markkanen has been compared to Kristaps Porzingis? I’m not just talking about on YouTube, or on the internet, but every single time, real or digital, that people have said about Markkanen “hey that dude kinda reminds of that Porzingis fellow on the Knicks”. Is it a thousand?…

Lauri Markkanen 17 Points Bulls Debut Full Highlights (10/19/2017)

“Hey man, uh, what you eatin’?” Lauri Markkanen looked up from his lunch to see Bobby Portis standing above him, struggling to hold back laughter, with Nikola Mirotic grinning stupidly at his side. Lauri glanced down at the tupperware container full of food. “Oh, this? This is…” “Huh huh, yeah, what is that that you…

Robin Lopez 18 Points Full Highlights (4/18/2017)

The Bulls, despite me (and their entire fanbase) never shutting up about how much they sucked throughout the year, are somehow up 2-0 on the top-seeded Boston Celtics. This is as baffling to me as I’m sure it is for you. I mean, I saw them quit halfway through the season. I saw it with…

Paul Zipser 16 Points Full Highlights (4/18/2017)

I have discarded my old nickname for Paul Zipser, “The Zipper”. It was not a relevant nickname, because he basically doesn’t have any zipper-like attributes. He’s not especially fast (a zipper could be one who zips around really quickly), he doesn’t play especially great defense (a zipper could be a guy who zips people up),…
