Mike Scott had the offseason that all NBA players dream of: the kind where you go around and beat up NFL fans. What could be better than going to a tailgate before a game and getting into a skirmish with a drunk fan? And since it’s an NFL-related issue, the NBA won’t even punish you…

Mike Scott 22 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (4/4/2019)
This, to you, the ignorant viewer, probably looks like a pretty good performance by Mike Scott. 22 points, 18 of those points coming from the 6 threes he hit, nothing wrong with that at all, you think. Snort. Guffaw. Watch this video and educate yourself before coming to such hasty conclusions. You will quickly see…

It wasn’t too long ago that Mike Scott was hanging out on the fringiest fringes of the NBA. His final year in Atlanta, he was plagued by some sort of injury, only a year after being plagued by some sort of drug-related legal issue (a guy with emoji tattoos is a good candidate to have…

There was a part of the season, around the middle of December, where Mike “The Threegional Manager” Scott was the hottest player in the league. He wasn’t putting up insane scoring numbers, but he was ultra-efficient in limited minutes, without even the aid of free-throws. I was hyped. I compared him favorably to Jabari Parker…

On the continuum of revenge games, where the low end is “no revenge was exacted” and the high end is “the dude just dropped sixty points of pure spite on his former team”, Mike Scott’s nineteen points against the Hawks is a little bit below the midpoint. He probably should have scored more points than…

Here’s the deal: expert NBA watchers will note the existence of certain “advanced” stats, which are like regular stats but extremely esoteric and nearly impossible to understand. One of these “advanced” stats is something called “effective field goal percentage”, which, as far as I can discern, bears a resemblance to regular field goal percentage (which…

This will be the video that makes everyone care about Mike Scott. I can feel it. This is his time, and he will be acknowledged as one of the best bench players in the league after this vid goes viral. It will start slow, maybe only 20 or 30 thousands views in the first few…

I must say, this “Threegional Manager” nickname for Mike Scott went right over my head. I had heard of the television show “The Office”, and I knew about Michael Scott, a character in the show, but how was I supposed to connect all that with the fact that this character was a regional manager? I’m…

“Nothing easy. NOTHING EASY!” Mike Scott took those immortal words by Zaza Pachulia to heart tonight, scoring a bunch of buckets, none of them easy. The one layup he made was a flailing, contorted effort made difficult by the presence of LeBron James. Other than that, it was a bunch of threes and iso midrange…

Just a few games after going 9 of 11 for 22 points, Mike Scott nearly replicates the feat, going 9 of 10 for 22 points. Am I the only one who thinks this is impressive, or does no one care about the Wizards right now? Or both. Maybe it’s both. Well, I care. I like…
