I’m really digging Justise Winslow’s high-arcing one-foot-way-forward shooting form this year. He decided that whatever he was doing wasn’t working, so something something lining up the guide hand or whatever. His free-throws still aren’t very good, and I’m skeptical that his three-point shooting is for real, but until he regresses severely next year, I’ll call…

Rodney McGruder 14 Points Full Highlights (4/4/2018)
OFFICIAL DTB REMINDER: Rodney “Rude McGrude” McGruder started 65 games for the Heat last season as a rookie. He scored 6.4 points per game. The only 50-game starters that season who had a lower scoring average than McGruder were: 1. Luke Babbitt (4.8 PPG, also for the Heat LOL [lots of laughs]) 2. Domantas Sabonits…
Read MoreJosh Richardson 22 Points Full Highlights (3/29/2018)
Is it just me, or is Josh Richardson not throwing down nearly the same slamjams he was his rookie year? Before you debate me with claims that his slamjams are of the same quality as previous seasons, remember that I look at EVERY dunk for the dunks-of-the-month videos. I see it all, and I know…
Read MoreKelly Olynyk 22 Points/10 Assists Full Highlights (3/21/2018)
These Kelly Olynyk fake handoffs are getting out of control. Do these dumbass NBA players not even watch film? It’s like his only move, it’s the only way he can do anything, and these meatballs are still letting him do it. Kyle O’Quinn, you need to take a good hard look at yourself and remind…
Read MoreJames Johnson 31 Points Full Highlights (3/19/2018)
“James, come over here for a second,” Erik Spoelstra said to his player as the team prepared for the start of the first overtime. James Johnson raised one eyebrow. He figured his coach would give them all a peptalk, not just take one of them off to the side for some one-on-one coaching. But he…
Read MoreKelly Olynyk 30 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (3/19/2018)
The Miami Heat just hung up 149 points on the Denver Nuggets, which is a new franchise-high single-game point total. There’s two gigantic asterisks next to it where the number is in the record books, one asterisk for the first overtime and one asterisk for the second overtime, but there should be a third asterisk…
Read MoreWayne Ellington 22 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (3/14/2018)
Wayne Ellington really disappointed me in the three-point shootout. I was hyping him up to everyone who would listen (which was basically nobody but hey at least I was trying) and then he went out and pooped his pants in front of everybody. Anything less than a victory for the Waynemaker was unacceptable. Maybe if…
Read MoreJustise Winslow 15 Points Full Highlights (3/12/2018)
How far above their season average does a player have to score to earn the distinction of having had a “scoring outburst”? Because I’ve been sitting here looking at the Heat-Blazers boxscore for about fifteen minutes now, and all I can think about is how Justise Winslow might have just had a scoring outburst and…
Read MoreRodney McGruder 13 Points Full Highlights (3/10/2018)
Rodney “M-Rod” McGruder: better or worse than Rodney Stuckey would be right now if you threw him back into the NBA? Note that, for the purposes of this exercise, Stuckey would still have been working out in preparation for a possible NBA return, so it’s not like we’re forklifting a fat, cheeseburger-laden Stuckey off his…
Read MoreJames Johnson 20 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (3/10/2018)
I don’t know how or why it happened, but the Heat completely booty-blasted the Wizards last night, AND they did it without Hassan Whiteside available, which conclusively proves that Whiteside isn’t even a vital part of either the Heat’s offensive success nor their defensive success. The Wizards were so thoroughly booty-bothered that the Heat even…
