Next step for Joe Young after having his first good game in the pros: changing his name to something more memorable than “Joe Young”. He’s an African-American, why doesn’t he have a stereotypically African-American name? Everyone remembers Jacquizz Rodgers (yeah, he’s a football player, my point remains), even though he kind of sucks. Ain’t nobody…

Myles Turner 25 Points Full Highlights (1/17/2016)
Damn, where did this come from? Myles “Tyme-Turner” Turner had only scored in double-figures three times prior to this; all 10 point performances of limited noteworthiness. And then he comes out and drops 25 like he does it on a game-to-game basis? It defies explanation. This ranks right up there as one of the most…
Read MoreIan Mahinmi 17 Points/4 Blocks Full Highlights (1/8/2016)
My standard for videos these days is if it doesn’t get 1,000 views, it probably should never have been brought into this world. Such is the case with my “Ian Mahinmi 12 Points Full Highlights” from early November. Right now it stands at 997 views (actually probably 998 because I just clicked on it and…
Read MoreLavoy Allen 14 Points Full Highlights (12/31/2015)
While making these highlights I was seriously distracted by the wide variety present in Pacers timeout entertainment. The whole process took about five minutes longer than it needed to because I had to: -Discover the outcome of the baby race (mascot interference ruined it) -Watch cheerleaders clad in outfits that were barely more than underwear…
Read MoreIan Mahinmi 18 Points Full Highlights (12/11/2015)
I’ve got a new meaning for the acronym ESPN: Extra Stupid People Notshowingreplays. Ian Mahinmi has three monster whams in this game. He is basically just whapping it all over folks with no regard for human, animal, plant, or alien life. I jumped out of my chair for each one. These are mega crushers. That…
Read MoreC.J. Miles 24 Points Full Highlights (12/8/2015)
I’m still reeling a little bit from when I found out that C.J. Miles scored forty points in a game that one time. I still have yet to see video evidence of this accomplishment, so, to maintain my failing grip on the sheer cliff-face of sanity, I’m moving ahead with the notion that maybe it…
Read MoreC.J. Miles 27 Points/8 Threes Full Highlights (12/3/2015)
C.J. Miles… is a good player now? That’s not something I expected from Mr. Shooting-Percentages-Getting-Worse-Every-Consecutive-Season-With-The-Jazz. It may blow your mind a little bit, but C.J. is already in his 11th year in the league. Not exactly the usual year for players to suddenly decide that they are above-average NBA material. Is his play up to…
Read MoreC.J. Miles 32 Points/8 Threes Full Highlights (11/24/2015)
C.J. Miles scoring 32 points is already a little mind-blowing. But when the Pacers commentators casually dropped that C.J. Miles once scored forty in a game, it was like a tactical nuke going off on all my synapses at once. For a while I think I was in a coma. I don’t remember much anyway….
Read MoreJordan Hill 20 Points Full Highlights (11/21/2015)
It’s a good thing that I’m only nominally a Bucks fan, because getting your rear end handed to you by the Pacers in a 40-point blowout would be pretty annoying otherwise. Watching the undersized Jordan Hill dominate the paint on 9-of-10 shooting while your big men loaf around and pick up fouls, that would also…
Read MoreGlenn Robinson III 17 Points/4 Threes Full Highlights (11/21/2015)
“Hey Glenn, what’s up?” Paul George greeted, approaching Glenn Robinson in the locker room. “You got plans for after the game?” “Probably just go home and watch a movie or something,” Glenn responded. “But if you have something in mind, forget the movie and I’ll chill with you instead.” Paul sort of shuffled his feet…
