Wilson Chandler: Sixth Man of the Year front-runner? Wilson Chandler: Sixth Man of the Year front-runner. Notice the difference between those two sentences? It’s subtle, but it’s there: I removed the question mark and replaced it with a period. Just one punctuation mark, yet the whole meaning is changed! In the first sentence, I am…

Jamal Murray 23 Points Full Highlights (11/23/2016)
After a slow (really slow [absolutely glacial {pretty much DOA}]) start to his rookie season, the highlights are now coming thick and fast for Jamal Murray. 18 points, then 24 points, now 23 points. That’s a three game stretch with three performances that none of this year’s other draftees can even begin to hope for….
Read MoreJamal Murray 24 Points Full Highlights (11/22/2016)
New top commentary moment of the year: one of the old Nuggets dudes tunelessly intoning “The Baby Bunch, the Baby Bunch” in a crude imitation of the “Brady Bunch” theme song. One of the most exciting sequences of Denver’s year so far, the crowd is hyped, the players are hyped, everybody is hyped, and you…
Read MoreJamal Murray 18 Points Full Highlights (11/20/2016)
I have to take issue with the Nuggets commentators this game. For the most part, they were fine, even if they went a little overboard with the “C-Word”, referencing Jamal Murray. That was too much. Also the mention of talking to somebody on twitter. As a professional sports commentator, you NEVER want to admit that…
Read MoreWilson Chandler 25 Points Full Highlights (11/18/2016)
If Wilson Chandler is feeling any lingering aftereffects from his injury (I think it was in the lower half of his body somewhere? But definitely not his butt), he’s definitely not showing it; his seventeen points per game are the highest in his career so far. And that’s while shooting well below his standards from…
Read MoreEmmanuel Mudiay 25 Points/9 Assists Full Highlights (11/18/2016)
How wild would it have been if that final shot by Emmanuel Mudiay had dropped? I don’t think the world could handle an and-one three-quarter-court shot to tie the game with 6 seconds left. Would Raptors fans hate Norman Powell as much as they hated John Salmons? That may not be possible, but it would…

In today’s episode of “Google Autocomplete Adventures”, we examine what Google’s disturbing robotic hivemind AI thinks you want when you type in “Wilson Chandler”. Result one: “Wilson Chandler”. This one makes sense, when you type in Chandler’s name, obviously you are going to want internet documents relaating to him. Why else would you be typing…
Read MoreJamal Murray 19 Points Full Highlights (11/13/2016)
I almost missed this performance by Jamal Murray. I had taken a look at the boxscore with about 2 minutes to go, didn’t notice anything that I wanted to highlight, and forgot about the game. Instead of doing highlights, I played some Rocket League. That was fun. Then, for some reason, I went back to…
Read MoreMalik Beasley 12 Points Full Highlights (11/10/2016)
I like what I see from Malik Beasley. I know, I know, small sample sizes or whatever. I don’t care. I’m here to offer a deal to the Nuggets from the Bucks: Michael Beasley and Steve Novak for Malik Beasley. Straight up. That’s it. No picks, just two-for-one. Why do the Bucks do it? They…
Read MoreJuan Hernangomez 11 Points Full Highlights (11/10/2016)
I’ve been trying to figure out what Juan Hernangomez said to Kevin Durant during their little dustup. It’s tough, though. Juan’s enunciation probably isn’t the greatest, his English phrasing might be suspect, and he could very well be just saying stuff in Spanish knowing that Durant won’t understand. I hope it was something to the…
