Tag: Gary Harris

In a previous life, most of my basketball identity was defined by my never-ending hype for Gary Harris. During that time, which seems so long ago, the hashtag #hypedforgaryharris was not only commonly used on my various social media profiles (to the point where I set up a hotkey on my keyboard to type it…

It’s sad to say, but I’m not really #hypedforgaryharris anymore. How can I be expected to be hyped for a guy averaging 10 points per game on 40 percent shooting when I’ve seen what he can really do in seasons past? For a refresher, what he was doing a few years ago was being one…

“Playoff Gary Harris” is a real thing, people. Don’t even try to pretend that it isn’t, because now that I’ve spoken those words, the universe recognizes it as an actual thing that really exists. Maybe it didn’t before, but it does now. “Playoff Gary Harris”. Oh yeah. I apologize for lying when I said that…

I cannot think of a better time than right now for Gary Harris to find his old form from seasons past. His injury-related decline has not received much attention since the Nuggets are so good anyway, but he’s nowhere near the player he was even last season. To illustrate: this is his first 20-burger since…

I was excited (one could even say…hyped) for Gary Harris to take the next step this season and turn himself into a true star in this league. Instead, he’s scoring the same PPG as last season, on way lower efficiency but higher volume (to make up for the lowered efficiency). He’s still a hella good…

Time for a shameful confession: my hype for Gary Harris is lower this season than it has been in previous seasons. Don’t get me wrong. I’m still #hypedforgaryharris. It’s just that, I don’t know, it seems like he’s not having these hyper-efficient scoring show-outs as often this season as he was last season. The stats…

Who is this third dude that the Nuggets added to the commentary crew? I don’t know if I like him or not, I haven’t had enough time to judge, but don’t the suits in charge realize that three-person boxes never ever work? Ever? I swear Chris Marlowe sounds half-angry every time he’s finally allowed to…

Gary Harris does it again. He hit a clutch lead-extending jumper against the Grizzlies last game, and now he hits a clutch lead-extending jumper against the Cavaliers. It’s time to say what everyone is thinking: he is clutch. He is the Nuggets’ go-to guy when things get close and Will Barton wants to shoot the…

Look at how happy Gary Harris is. Don’t you wish you could be that happy? Sadly, such happiness is forever out of your reach, because Gary Harris is that happy because he is the leading scorer on the Nuggets this year. You will never be the leading scorer on the Nuggets, not even you dropped…

Gary Harris was relatively clutch (if you ignore the fact that “clutchness” doesn’t exist as a long-term attribute) at the end of this game, hitting a three-pointer to leave the Nuggets down by one with fourteen seconds left. If this isn’t evidence that he should be shooting twenty shots per game in his quest to…
