My main joy in life right now is using Stathead (basketball-reference’s new paid analytical tool) to look up cool NBA stats and then fill my video descriptions with summaries of those stats. By looking up stats that the average NBA fan no longer has any access to, and then rubbing those stats in the collective…

Ivica Zubac 21 Points/0 Missed Field Goals Full Highlights (8/6/2020)
Check out the statlines from the so-called “stars” on the Clippers roster: KaWHINE LeoNERD: 29/6/5 on an ultra inefficient 10-of-23 from the field, I guess he needs some more load management Paulina Georgette: 24/7/6 on an ultra inefficient 10-of-21 from the field, total brickfest from start to finish Lou iLLiams: 6/2/3 on an ultra super…

Everybody comments on the fact that the Rockets have taken the concept of “small ball” to its absurd conclusion, but nobody really mentions that the Clippers are on their way to doing something similar. Or if they are mentioning it, I’m not seeing it because I don’t actually read any NBA journalism other than my…

I had been getting tired of how the Rockets were being so widely praised for their “bold” and “revolutionary” (more like “cold” and “devolutionary”) strategy of not even pretending to have any true bigmen on the court. I understand that it’s fun to see something new in the NBA, but it’s easy to have gimmicky…

The likelihood of Lob City reforming in Los Angeles seems rather low, and if it were to reform at all, it would be on the Lakers (who have lob-catchers AD and McGee, as well as lob-throwers Rondo and LeBron) and not on the Clippers. That makes me sad in a way, but there’s also no…

Ivica “Zu Tycoon” Zubac is another one of those talented young players that the Lakers pretty much gave away for nothing. If it seems like the Lakers’ screwups are the only thing I can talk about, you’re right. There should be no safe spaces for Lakers fans. By virtue of their bandwagoning fandom (it’s really…

Ivica “The Croatato” Zubac started this game, played the first four minutes (picking up a point, a foul, and a rebound), and then got subbed out for JaMychal Green. He didn’t come back into the game until there was one minute left in the third quarter. That seemed weird to me so I rewatched the…

This might sound kinda like I’m wearing a tinfoil hat here, but it seems to me that a big reason that Magic Johnson stepped down as GM of the Lakers is Ivica “The Big Croatato” Zubac, or, more specifically, his trade that sent Zubac away for Mike Muscala. Think about it. That trade was a…

In tonight’s much-vaunted battle of the Croatian centers, two third-year players battled it out for the title of Croat GOAT: Ivica Zubac of the Lakers and Dragan Bender of the Suns. Using mostly facts with a heavy dose of pure truth, I will, in this video description, attempt to figure out which had the better…

Would Ivica Zubac be a voted-in All Star if he had been playing this well the entire season instead of just the last few games? I’m thinking yes, and you know what, that yes would be positively RESOUNDING. Remember, he plays for the team with a fanbase that faithfully voted for the husk of Kobe…
