If you squint your eyes really tight and allow your mind to free itself from the fetters of conventional NBA thinking, you can kind of pretend that Michael Beasley is basically Jabari Parker except a little older. Really! Don’t believe me? Try it out. Slap that play button, half-obscure your ocular organs, cast from your…

Khris Middleton 20 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (2/15/2017)
If the Bucks can’t have Jabari (sources tell me he’s on vacation; I wonder when he’ll be back?) at least the Bucks can have Khris Middleton. And not just any Khris Middleton: they get the “diamond dimes” version of Khris Middleton, the version that dimes teammates non-stop with his unexpectedly solid playmaking ability. Throw that…
Read MoreGreg Monroe 25 Points Full Highlights (2/15/2017)
Immediately fter going 12-of-15 from the field against the Pistons, Greg Monroe decided to go 12-of-16 from the field against the Nets. The first time made sense: Greg was hyped to be playing against his former team and wanted to inform them that they had made a mistake by prioritizing Drummond over him. This one…
Read MoreGreg Monroe 25 Points Full Highlights (2/13/2017)
Greg Monroe does this every time he plays the Pistons. Trying to prove that he’s better than Andre Drummond? That the Pistons made a huge mistake when they chose Andre over him? He even dunked it off an alley-oop in this game. If that wasn’t him trying to make a point to the Pistons’ FO,…
Read MoreMichael Beasley 23 Points Full Highlights (2/13/2017)
Damn, if I’m a Pistons fan tonight, I’m pissed as heck. I thought the shots Michael Beasley was making were ridiculous. Imagine how it looked from the other side of the fence? It must have been rage inducing. The shot selection that Beasley displayed tonight was very poor. These weren’t good shots. Granted, had he…
Read MoreMirza Teletovic 19 Points/5 Threes Full Highlights (2/11/2017)
The Bucks are simply way more fun to watch when Mirza Teletovic is taking and making swaggy triples. This year, his performances have tended more towards the “taking” and not so much the “making”. Watching him attempt swaggy triples is also kind of fun, more fun that the usual player, but the funness goes way…
Read MoreThon Maker 12 Points/3 Threes Full Highlights (2/11/2017)
With Jabari dead/buried, and with him all hope of a Bucks’ playoff berth, there is no reason not to give Thon Maker 30 minutes a contest. Or at least attempt to give him 30 minutes a contest. He’d probably foul out way before he got to 30. Maker is still at that stage of his…
Read MoreMalcolm Brogdon 18 Points Full Highlights (2/10/2017)
What happened to Jabari? Where’s Jabari? Why isn’t he playing? Is something wrong with him? TELL ME!!! IF YOU KNOW WHERE JABARI IS WHY WON’T YOU TELL ME???? Is Jabari okay? Where is he? WHERE’S JABARI?? DO NOT WITHHOLD THE TRUTH FROM ME! Until I am provided a satisfactory answer as to Jabari Parker’s whereabouts,…
Read MoreMirza Teletovic 19 Points Full Highlights (2/4/2017)
I was pretty pumped when the Bucks signed Mirza Teletovic this offseason. I saw what he had done in Phoenix the year prior, and he seemed like the perfect stretchy-foury type to put next to Giannis. I even advocated trading for him during the season, that’s how much I wanted this dude in Milwaukee. Now…
Read MoreJohn Henson 16 Points/4 Blocks Full Highlights (2/3/2017)
This video is an example of what learned people in basketball circles call “showcasing a player for a trade”. The Bucks already did this once with Miles Plumlee; they started him in one game and he put up decent stats, and then they traded the bum to the Hornets (my heart rate is still elevated…
