Montrezl “Mon-Trezzle” Harrell has succeeded Blake Griffin as as high-flying, all-dunks power forward of the future in Clipperland. There’s just two problems with that statement. First, Harrell only had two dunks in this game, so calling him “all-dunks” is like calling me “all-fast-break-layups” because there was one time where I actually converted a fast-break layup…

Danilo Gallinari 28 Points Full Highlights (2/5/2018)
With how long Danilo Gallinari has been in the league, it’s easy to forget that he’s not yet 30 years old. Granted, his play-style does a lot to deceive; even his poster dunks from prior seasons seemed like those of a nursing-home inmate and he never looks like he’s going very fast or getting a…
Read MoreDanilo Gallinari 24 Points Full Highlights (2/3/2018)
Danilo Gallinari looks totally cooked from an athletic standpoint. As recently as last year he was putting dudes on posters, but all those leg injuries have taken their toll and now he can barely jump. If I had to watch this guy on a game-to-game basis I would get so sad. Luckily, I don’t, and…
Read MoreTobias Harris 24 Points Clippers Debut Full Highlights (2/3/2018)
Tobias Harris keeps getting traded midseason. This is the third time, right before the trade deadline, that his old team didn’t want him that much anymore and his new team did. What’s going on? I might be the biggest Tobey Bear homer in the world, but even when looking at things objectively I can’t see…
Read MoreMilos Teodosic 12 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (1/28/2018)
I haven’t quite figured out yet where my cutoff point is for Milos Teodosic highlights. Whatever it is, it’s pretty low right now, obviously. Should it be higher? Should I say to myself “don’t make Teodosic vids unless he scores 14 or has 10 assists you idiot, do you have no shame?”? Maybe so. I…
Read MoreTyrone Wallace 19 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (1/28/2018)
As time goes on, it gets more and more clear: Tyrone Wallace is a legit NBA rotation player. Not an especially impactful one, or an especially exciting one, but those aren’t requirements for being in the NBA. Solid role-players are often undervalued; that’s what Wallace is right now, and I don’t think anyone outside the…
Read MoreMilos Teodosic 18 Points Full Highlights (1/26/2018)
Milos Teodosic is looking a lot better lately. At least, his three-ball is. Maybe a little more jumpy-jump action? Only Luke Babbitt is allowed to shoot those without jumping. He’s still shooting it so hard and fast at the basket that it doesn’t seem like it should ever go in, but it is. For now….
Read MoreMontrezl Harrell 23 Points/4 Dunks Full Highlights (1/22/2018)
I don’t know how closely they compare as players, but what I do know is that Montrezl “Mon-Trezzle” Harrell pretty much replaces all the dunking that is missing from the Clippers’ lineup when DeAndre Jordan is out. He doesn’t care that he’s only six-foot-eight. He’ll dunk it anywhere, anytime, and he’ll make sure to mistreat…
Read MoreMilos Teodosic 15 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (1/22/2018)
Milos Teodosic is slowly but surely dragging his field goal percentage out of the gutter as he becomes acclimated to the NBA game and as his foot injury bothers him less and less. In January he’s averaging 11 points and 5 assists on 47% shooting (43% from three), a far cry from the month of…
Read MoreWes Johnson 17 Points Full Highlights (1/20/2018)
Allow me to reminisce for a bit. Let me take you back to the year 2013. Wes Johnson is playing for the Suns. He starts the season mostly riding the pine, getting DNP’s interspersed with bursts of eight or ten minutes of playing time. He’s only 25 years old, still on his rookie deal, but…
