I’m still waiting for some enterprising NBA franchise to accumulate all the Plumlee brothers on one roster and run three-center lineups to confuse and infuriate their foes. You could call it the “triplet towers” or something, and it would suck, but it would also be fun. The Nuggets can do this right now; Marshall Plumlee…

Nikola Jokic Triple Double 25 Pts/14 Rebs/10 Asts Full Highlights (2/6/2019)
With the whirlwind of trade activity going on this evening and promising to extend to tomorrow afternoon, I’m sort of surprised that the Nuggets haven’t made any big moves yet. Or any moves, really. They’re just sitting there amidst the chaos like the whole NBA isn’t being ripped down and rebuilt around them. You might…
Read MoreTrey Lyles 20 Points Full Highlights (2/4/2019)
Just what the doctor ordered for Trey Lyles: a nice, pressure-free blowout loss for Trey Lyles to come in and shoot some nice, pressure-free shots. They go in? Great, it means you’re breaking out of your slump! They don’t go in? Who cares, we’re going to lose by 20 to the Pistons (LMAO) no matter…
Read MoreMonte Morris 17 Points/10 Assists Full Highlights (2/2/2019)
Monte Morris just got the first double-double of his career. He had gotten ten assists in a game once before, but he only scored five points, leaving him well short of the ten points that are required for a double-double. This time, he made sure there were no doubts about it, as he continued his…
Read MoreTrey Lyles 19 Points Full Highlights (2/2/2019)
Lost in the grinning happiness of the Nuggets season is the fact that Trey Lyles is one of the worst three-point shooters ever. Or, if he isn’t, he’s doing a very good impersonation this season. He went 3 of 6 here against the Timberwolves, bumping up his percentage from 24 to 25 percent, so that’s…
Read MoreMalik Beasley 22 Points/1 Touchdown Full Highlights (2/2/2019)
Happy Super Bowl Day everybody! For those not in the know (Euros, commies, comsymps), Super Bowl Day is an American holiday to celebrate gluttony and violence. The centerpiece of the holiday is the eponymous “Super Bowl”, the championship game for the sport of football. American football, that is. We don’t care about the other kinds…
Read MoreNikola Jokic Triple Double 13 Pts/16 Rebs/10 Asts Full Highlights (2/2/2019)
Going by straight points, out of Nikola Jokic’s 25 career triple-doubles, this one is the second-worst. A year ago, he put up an 11/16/11 line, so that one’s the worst as of right now, although I don’t doubt that at some point in his lengthy NBA career that he will score just ten points while…
Read MoreMonte Morris 18 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (2/1/2019)
Since Monte “Montains of Madness” Morris and Malik Beasley clearly have the point guard and shooting guard positions well-covered for the Nuggets, now is the time to orchestrate a big-time trade for Anthony Davis and gun for a championship. Am I being facetious right now? I can’t really tell. Here’s my proposed trade: Jamal Murray,…
Read MoreTorrey Craig Career High 22 Points/5 Dunks Full Highlights (2/1/2019)
Torrey “Aggro-Craig” Craig is now a member of the 20-point club in the NBA, an exclusive club adorned with a multitude of neon lights that is reserved only for the most elite NBA players who can manage to score 20 points or more in a single NBA basketball contest. You know who else is in…
Read MoreNikola Jokic 31 Points/9 Assists Full HIghlights (2/1/2019)
It’s official: for the first time in his career, Nikola Jokic is an All-Star. I’m a little peeved about the dunk contest snub (get it, because he hardly ever dunks even though he’s seven feet tall LMAO!!!!!!), but I’m excited that he’ll get to be the antithesis of All-Star-Game-type basketball during the game itself. I…
