I’m not very good at doing free-agency speculation/analysis because I’m only vaguely aware of each teams’ salary cap situation. I’m also only vaguely aware of what a salary cap even is and how it relates to player salaries. Basically, the only thing I know for sure is that teams can’t spend infinite money unless they…

Jabari Parker 20 Points Full Highlights (3/6/2019)
It worries me how little the Wizards broadcast seemed to care about showing replays of Jabari Parker. He had some really aesthetically-pleasing dunks, but the exact level of aesthetic pleasure they offered couldn’t be accurately determined because there weren’t enough slow-motion replays from different angles to get a real feel for the dunks. The in-game…

The clash between the Wizards and the Timberwolves might not have drawn a lot of eyeballs outside of the respective TV markets of Washington DC and Minnesota, but it was a game fraught with storylines simply because of all the similarities the two teams share: -Both were expected to make the playoffs, but are on…

Every time I make a Japari Parker video for uploadment to my channel, it seems as if his namesake kitty, Japurri Purrker, is aware of it. Japurri usually sits in the same room as me when I’m making highlight videos, but he doesn’t get involved in the process. He’s too sleepy for that. He just…

As anybody who subscribes to my channel would know, I am obsessed with the idea of “revenge games”, where a player goes off on a team that he used to play for. If we’re being honest, I often will imagine there to be REVENGE where there is no REVENGE to be found. In my eagerness…

When Jabari Parker has games like these, it’s easy to forget that every advanced stat in the universe hates his guts (and he probably hates those stats right back). It’s easy to forget that he literally told the media that he doesn’t see the point of playing defense. It’s easy to forget that his knee…

It’s been roughly a month since Jabari Parker was forcibly removed from the Bulls’ rotation. Occasionally, he would randomly play a few minutes here and there, but mostly, he’s been collecting DNP’s. And butt splinters from riding the pine for entire games. In that time, the Bulls organization has been looking to trade the guy….

As I’m typing this, my tubby little kitty Japurri Purrker (who I’ve decided is not going to be renamed) is staring and meowing at a wall because he thinks there’s a bird on the other side of it. This seems like some sort of metaphor for the current state of Jabari Parker, but I can’t…

Jabari Parker seems like he might be playing a bit better lately, but he still doesn’t quite pass the “eye test”; he often has sloppy turnovers and he often takes bad shots that he shouldn’t be taking (see: popping for a twenty-foot jumper with the defender in his face). It’s funny to note that the…

This is the kind of game where you wonder how in the heck Jabari Parker could be so bad at basketball while watching it. If he could do this every night, he’d be a star. Of course, you could say that about almost every player I make a video for. Like if DeAndre’ Bembry had…
