Ivica Zubac 18 Points Full Highlights (1/22/2019)

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…

Kyle Kuzma 32 Points Full Highlights (1/19/2019)

New rule: when an NBA player scores more than 16 points in a first quarter and doesn’t end up with 40 for the game, they get sent back down to the G-League immediately at the conclusion of the game. While they’re there, they’re getting real G-League checks, barely any money at all, while the money…

Lonzo Ball 18 Points/10 Assists Full Highlights (1/17/2019)

I will continue thinking that Lonzo Ball can be a pretty good low-usage PG up until the moment he gets shipped off to China so he can steal sunglasses like his brother, get arrested, and plays for the local Uyghur Muslim internment camp team (I hear they’re always looking for American talent). No matter how…

Kyle Kuzma 32 Points/7 Threes Full Highlights (1/17/2019)

Imagine how mad LeBron would be if, in addition to Brandon Ingram and Lonzo Ball being underwhelming components of the Lakers’ young core, Kyle Kuzma where also an underwhelming component of the core. He would probably demand a trade to the Pacers so he could win uncontested championships in the East with little to no…

Ivica Zubac 26 Points Full Highlights (1/17/2019)

The hard-fought battle between centers of marginal quality continues on in Lakerland. After a string of games where he was only getting pity minutes from Luke Walton, Ivica “Zu Tycoon” Zubac played so well in this one that Walton had no choice but to give him 28 minutes. That, predictably, cut into Tyson Chandler’s minutes,…

Lonzo Ball 19 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (1/15/2019)

It fills my heart with gladness when I see Lakers fans struggling with the fact that their young core of players (especially the duo of Brandon Ingram and Lonzo Ball) are just not that good right now. It’s no secret that those two have struggled mightily with LeBron out for a significant amount of time….

Kyle Kuzma 29 Points Full Highlights (1/13/2019)

The Lakers just lost to the Cavaliers (something that should never, ever happen), but whoever you blame, it shouldn’t be Kyle Kuzma. He had eighteen points in the fourth quarter. While his teammates choked and floundered, Kuzma was a steady and confident scorer who had to put the team on his back. Among the teammates…

Michael Beasley 19 Points Full Highlights (1/9/2019)

This game from Michael “Waffle Fries” Beasley is reminiscent of some of the games he had during his stint in New York last season, and before that, during his stints with the Bucks and Rockets. The quick-hitting scoring done off the bench on a variety of drives, ISOs, and jumpshots is fun to watch when…

Kyle Kuzma Career High 41 Points Full Highlights (1/9/2019)

This game was totally a REVENGE GAME for Kyle Kuzma. But it wasn’t revenge against a former team that he has played for. No, it was revenge against the favored team of his childhood growing up in Flint, Michigan, the Detroit Pistons. “Wait a minute, Dee Tee Bee,” you howl in bewilderment. “Why would Kuz…

Brandon Ingram 29 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (1/7/2019)

As much “potential” as Brandon Ingram has, he hasn’t yet shown the ability to dominate in a slowed-down, halfcourt offense. However, with this game, I would say that he has absolutely shown the ability to dominate in a fast-paced game where all he does is take advantage of transition opportunities. Because that’s exactly what he…
