I can’t blame Rockets fans for wanting to get excited about their new acquisition, but the fact of the matter is that Jordan Hamilton is probably a below-average role player at this point in his career. Here’s a list of things he won’t be giving you: -10 points per game -Savvy playmaking ability -Veteran leadership…

Andre Drummond 16 Points/22 Rebounds Full Highlights (2/18/2014)
Andre Drummond is the only good player on the Pistons. There. I said it. Here’s some other players on the Pistons that you might think are good, listed with the shortcomings that cause them to not be good. Josh Smith – Has no concept of a “good shot” and is played out of position so…
Read MoreDion Waiters 24 Points Full Highlights (2/7/2014)
If you want to understand why Dion Waiters isn’t a good player, this would be a good video to watch. He is just so confident in his jumper that he will take it no matter what the situation is, with no effort to get a better shot for himself or his teammates. This game it…
Read MoreLuol Deng 24 Points Full Highlights (2/1/2014)
So apparently Deng is unhappy with getting traded to Cleveland? I understand. It must be hard playing in an iso-happy system when you’re used to structured offensive sets and accountability. But there are also some other things he doesn’t like about the situation in Cleveland: – Varejao’s hair isn’t as good Joakim’s – Cleveland –…
Read MoreWilson Chandler 25 Points Full Highlights (1/25/2014)
In assigning all of the players on the Nuggets’ roster to their corresponding zoo animals, I have come up with the following list, which is a work in progress: Wilson Chandler: Lion Kenneth Faried: Kangaroo Ty Lawson: Otter Randy Foye: Tapir or Koala JaVale McGee: Giraffe Nate Robinson: Meerkat Anthony Randolph: That kid on a…
Read MoreAnthony Morrow 21 Points/4 Threes Full Highlights (1/24/2014)
Anthony “Starvation Victim” Morrow is the purest shooter in the NBA. Of course, I’m talking about the parallel-universe NBA where Stephen Curry was never born and some guy named Mark Stevens is the point guard for the Warriors. There are some other anomalies as well (I keep telling people we should never have allowed an…
Read MoreAndrea Bargnani 19 Points Full Highlights (1/9/2014)
There are some people who are under the impression that Andrea Bargnani is to blame for the Knicks’ horrible season. Those people are wrong. While Bargnani has not been great and his acquisition was questionable, he is performing about as well as expected. His career-high rebound rate is evidence of this. Here are some aspects…
Read MoreEvan Fournier 19 Points/4 Threes Full Highlights (1/9/2014)
My feeble knowledge of France is entirely sourced from the “Madeline” series of children’s books. It’s been a while since I read them, actually, so some of the details are a little fuzzy. Here’s a rundown of what I have figured out about the mysterious European country: -There are a lot of mischievous little girls…
Read MoreRoy Hibbert 19 Points/5 Blocks Full Highlights (12/31/2013)
2013 has finally left us behind, after 365 days of torment and misery, and in its place is the year 2014, who will doubtlessly be as cruel or crueller than the past year. In the distance I can hear the sounds of resolutions being broken. I for one have already failed in all of my…
Read MoreSpencer Hawes 20 Points/3 Blocks Full Highlights (12/11/2013)
Spencer Hawes has been having a pretty good year so far. Nothing spectacular, but pretty good for a white guy whose vertical is maybe 6 inches. In fact, his performances lately have been so good that I made a new word for them: “Hawesian.” Other things that could be described as such: – Spencer Hawes…
