Meyers Leonard has played 48 games in a Heat uniform, but it still feels very wrong for him to be donning something other than a Portland one. Luckily, the colors are pretty close, so if I squint my eyes and pretend hard enough, I can imagine that he’s still with the Blazers, splashing threes as…

Meyers Leonard 21 Points Full Highlights (11/3/2019)
I was going to ask as the opening sentence to this description, “are the Heat for real?”, but then I looked at their games so far and have determined that they aren’t for real. Sorry Heat fans, but it’s going to take more than a single win against a good team to convince me that…

I am suffering from some serious post-Halloween candy overload, so my inhibitions are lowered and I’m probably going to regret saying this, but I have a total man-crush on Meyers Leonard and I want to hang out with him and play Xbox and have him give me hair-care tips. Nothing more than that though. Just…

Meyers Leonard opened his eyes from sleep, which was strange in the first place, because he didn’t remember having fallen asleep. He remembered the game ending, and thinking the season was over, and then…nothing. His last memory was of walking off the court.

Basketball is all about matchups. When the other team makes a last minute decision to start Damian Jones, you can’t just sit there and keep starting Enes Kanter like a moron. You have to react. You have to adapt. Remember: MATCHUPS. That’s what basketball is all about. MATCHUPS. In the immortal words of Billy Donovan,…

I still don’t see what’s so wrong with Meyers Leonard that he gets big stretches of DNPs. He looks fine to me. The buckets in this video are buckets that any playoff team would desire. If the Blazers really don’t want him, I, on behalf of the Bucks, offer one (1) Thon Maker for him….

Meyers Leonard is currently playing his seventh season for the Blazers. That’s a long time to play for just onte team these days, especially as a role player, and especially especially as a role player who doesn’t even appear in every game. His contract is bad but not completely atrocious for his level of production…

Meyers “50-40-90” Leonard is living up to his nickname again this year. Except this year it’s more like “50-50-100”. Yeah, you read that right nerds. Leonard is shooting 52 percent from the field, 52 percent from three, and a perfect 100 percent from the line. I was wondering why Zach Collins was losing minutes to…

I would like to share with you a statistical tidbit that has been making the rounds on social media lately: Meyers “Seven-Foot-One” Leonard’s last blocked shot came in the 2016-17 season. He played all of last year and so far all of this year without rejecting a single field goal attempt. You’d think that, eventually,…
