The NBA has tried for many years to make the dunk contest relevant again, and for those many years they have failed. I don’t know if anything will restore the luster that the contest once had, but putting in a non-spectecular dunker in Giannis Antetokounmpo definitely won’t help. Don’t get me wrong. I love Giannis….

Khris Middleton 21 Points Full Highlights (1/25/2015)
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Khris Middleton is pretty underrated. Now, underrated is a term that gets thrown around loosely nowadays. Everything and everyone is underrated. Stephen Curry? Underrated. How is that even possible? Even players who you think are definitely overrated (like Kobe Bryant) are underrated, somehow. With that said,…
Read MoreO.J. Mayo 20 Points Full Highlights (1/24/2015)
Okay, I’m just going to go out and say it: Sidney Moncrief is the single worst commentator in basketball history. He stammers, he stutters, he gets players confused, he forgets players’ names, and I’m pretty sure I’ve never heard him make a “good call” at any point, ever. If the Bucks have a good play,…
Read MoreO.J. Mayo 22 Points Full Highlights (1/15/2015)
OJ Mayo was bad last year. Fat and bad. The latest in a horrible string of acquisitions by the Bucks intended to score bunches of points. Screw you Stephen Jackson. I hate you so much. You too, Corey Maggette. Happily for the Bucks, OJ lost some weight and came into the season with a new…
Read MoreGiannis Antetokounmpo 16 Points/3 Dunks Full Highlights (1/15/2015)
The entrance to the temple was built from large stones. Looking closer, Giannis could see that a single gemstone was embedded cleanly into the center of each. Rubies, sapphires, and chalcedonies shimmered underneath the purple light of the sky. Also on these stones were inscriptions in a language unknown to him, and, given the utterly…
Read MoreKendall Marshall 15 Points Full Highlights (1/4/2015)
It’s become abundantly clear that Brandon Knight isn’t a point guard. Well, he is, but not the kind you want running the team and distributing the ball. It’s not unusual these days for teams to trot out an undersized SG at point, there are a bunch of players who everyone jacks off who fit this…
Read MoreZaza Pachulia 16 Points Full Highlights (1/4/2015)
Uploading highlights of European players is always guaranteed views. Jusuf Nurkic? Tens of thousands. Jonas Valanciunas? Same. Donatas Motiejunas, Mirza Teletovic, Bojan Bogdanovic, Jan Vesely (RIP in Peace), these guys drive tons of traffic to my channel. All except for Zaza Pachulia. Nobody gives a damn about this guy, not even in his home country…
Read MoreGiannis Antetokounmpo 16 Points Full Highlights (1/4/2015)
Giannis was unsure how much time had passed, or, indeed, whether any time had passed at all. They had reached the base of the mountain, and from this vantage point, it seemed utterly unscalable. Sheer vertical faces of smooth rock stretched hundreds of feet into the air, and the parts of it that weren’t flat…
Read MoreGiannis Antetokounmpo 14 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (12/31/2014)
We deviate from regularly scheduled programming to deliver this important news bulletin: The Bucks ran a significant amount of offense through Giannis in the high post. This may be a better use of his talents then the ill-fated “make him a point guard” experiment. He’s tall enough and has good enough instincts to make good…
Read MoreJohn Henson 11 Points/5 Blocks Full Highlights (12/29/2014)
John Henson has had five blocks in each of his last two games, both times playing around twenty minutes. Now the question is: does Jason Kidd disapprove of people on his team getting triple-doubles? Because Henson would get one fo sho if you played him forty minutes. Rebounds, points, and blocks. But let’s not stop…
