Evan Fournier relaxed in his recamier, the thoughtful and provocative sounds of Maurice Ravel’s Daphnis et Chloé echoing off the damasked walls. The architect had laughed when Evan had expressed a desire to recreate a French villa in the middle of an Orlando subdivision, but who was laughing now? Evan’s dinner parties were a hit…

Evan Fournier 18 Points Full Highlights (12/12/2014)
Many weeks have passed without the cleansing light of the sun. Dark clouds roil overhead. The carrion birds circle. The terrible prophecy that the elders relayed to us is coming to pass. Evan Fournier isn’t doing as good with Victor Oladipo back in the lineup, just as the wise ones foretold. I was just sort…

Evan Fournier just keeps getting better and better. It’s gonna really suck when Oladipo comes back and we only get to watch the Ferocious Frenchman for 20 or so minutes a night. That’s the problem with hoarding a ton of young talent; you end up with a ton of guys who all want minutes. There…

Evan Fournier is in a stage of his life that many young men have to go through. He’s in that awkward phase where his hair is getting long but is not yet long enough to do anything cool with and thus looks really losery. It’s a trying time for anybody, much less a heavily-scrutinized NBA…

Even though I ragged on it while Evan Fournier was in Denver, I sorta miss their announcers saying “Un, Deux, Trois!” after Fournier made a three. To compensate I’ve taken to saying it if I’m just watching a game at home. Shouting it, really. It really adds to the experience of viewing a game if…

Evan Fournier is a great fit for what the Magic are trying to do, which is, I assume, to collect as many young, talented players as they can while avoiding any who might become an All-Star some day. That’s exactly what Fournier is. He’s a pretty good player, and easy to like as a foreigner…

Evan Fournier reclined in his posh leather couch, enjoying a glass of the finest French Chardonnay. Just as he was about to put on his favorite recording of Debussy’s ‘Clair de Lune’, he was interrupted by his phone ringing. “This is the Fournicator.” “Is that what you call yourself now? It’s Jan.” Evan tensed up….

Evan Fournier got out of his car and walked towards the row of townhouses. The house number he sought was right there, so he went up to the door and rung the doorbell. After waiting patiently for three seconds, he rung it again. Finally, the door opened, and Jan Vesely appeared in the doorframe. “Evan?…

There was debate as to whether Evan Fournier was really a point guard or not. But that debate has ended, or at least been put on hold. Not because any resolution has been reached, but because Evan Fournier has to play point whether he likes it or not. The rest of the Nuggets guards have…
Read MoreEvan Fournier 18 Points Full Highlights (1/31/2014)
Okay. So maybe the “Evan Fournier Starting Point Guard” experiment isn’t going so well. Yeah, he’s young, so this is forgivable. But seven turnovers without a single assist to show for it! 20 shots taken for 18 points! Those are Brandon Jennings-esque stats right there. But this carefully-propagandized highlight reel shows none of the bad,…
