By my count, Derrick Favors has now made 19 shots in a row. He made all 10 of them tonight, and made his last 9 attempts last game. I actually went back and looked at his last miss to see what kind of apocalyptic calamity could have possibly caused him to fail to successfully place…

Derrick Favors 21 Points/3 Blocks Full Highlights (1/16/2020)
Everyone’s all upset about the iffy foul call on an inbound with 0.2 seconds left that sent this game into overtime, but I sympathize with the refs on this one. They, like me, just want to see more buckets. I’m surprised that so many people are protesting the prospect of more buckets, but that’s just…

In comparison to triple-doubles, which happen all the time now and barely mean anything, the 20-20 game is a somewhat rarer sight. There have been sixteen triple-doubles this year, actually not as many as I expected (I guess I temporarily forgot that Chucksell Statpadbrook doesn’t get as many opportunities to chuck OR statpad this year),…

Attention all haters who were hating on the concept of Derrick Favors being on the same team as Rudy Gobert despite neither of them being a jumpshooter: you can cease your hating at once becasue the Jazz have won eight of the last nine, conclusively proving that a team constructed with two non-shooting bigs can…

Last time I made a Derrick Favors highlight video, he had seven assists, and they were actually all pretty good. I was honestly surprised by that, since Favors has never, at any point, ever had a reputation as a passer, except perhaps among the most homerific Jazz fans. So I entered this particular highlight-making excursion…

This video was made basically to commemorate a career-high in assists for Derrick Favors, who honestly looked like Lamar Odom 2.0 based on this one game. He was making good decisions with the ball, whether looking to score or looking to pass, and who cares if one of his assists was actually an airballed floater?…

I’ve been too nice to players recently. Even players worthy of criticism, worthy of my harshest words, I’ve been handling them with kid-gloves. Is it because Adam Silver said something about how NBA are more lonely and isolated than ever and I don’t want their feeling to get hurt because of the words of some…

The Bucks gave up a 19-2 run in the fourth quarter of this game and ended up blowing a huge lead to lose by four, but I am insulated from the negative effects of the loss by the fact that I didn’t watch any of the second half. I was too busy making highlight videos….

Derrick Favors’ reign as “best Derrick person” in the NBA has come to a sad end this year. He’s still good, actually he’s better than ever if you look at advanced stats, but Derrick Rose has captured everyone’s hearts with his inspired play and 50-point game tears. I thought I saw some tears leaking out…
