Has Jerryd Bayless always been this… pretty? Look at those eyes. Look at that jawline. Look at that stubble. Look at those pouty lips. The way he’s looking at me in the thumbnail, it’s like he’s about to whisper into my ear “Dee Tee Bee… I want you to make a different kind of highlight…

Josh Okogie 21 Points Full Highlights (3/29/2019)
Apparently the refs did some things at the end of this game that some people don’t agree with. Also, various members of both the Wolves and the Warriors were screwing up/screwing around during the overtime period, resulting in a game that was almost too chaotic to be enjoyable. I could sit down and watch the…
Read MoreDario Saric 18 Points Full Highlights (3/26/2019)
When I first glanced over the box-score for the Timberwolves/Clippers game, my eye lingered over Dario Saric’s statline: 18 points, 5 assists. Not a fantastic line, but pretty decent for Saric considering his reduced role on the Wolves compared to the Sixers. I filed the small scrap of knowledge away for future reference. My brain…
Read MoreJosh Okogie 19 Points Full Highlights (3/19/2019)
Here’s a question for discussion: has Josh Okogie LITERALLY been better than Andrew Wiggins in the past two games? Let’s take a looksie: This game, Okogie had 19 points on 6-of-9 shooting. Wiggins had 20 points on 8-of-19 shooting. Last game against the Rockets, Okogie had 21 points on 8-of-14 shooting. Wiggins had 14 points…
Read MoreJosh Okogie 21 Points Full Highlights (3/17/2019)
Josh Okogie outscored James Harden in this game, 21 to 20. That factoid tells you all you need to know about the MVP “candidacy” of Harden. It doesn’t tell us much about the MVP candidacy of Okogie, but safe to say, he doesn’t have much of a case. Even if you tried to help him…
Read MoreCameron Reynolds 12 Points Full Highlights (3/12/2019)
Cameron Reynolds has, by my count, only a few days left on his second 10-day contract with the Timberwolves. He was certainly aware of that fact (if I was an NBAer on a 10-day, I’d be counting down the days carefully and when they got down to one I’d burst into the GM’s office and…
Read MoreJeff Teague 20 Points/10 Assists Full Highlights (3/10/2019)
I have previously implied (or just straight-up stated) that the only reason Jeff Teague gets tons of assists this year is because he gets to play with the assist sponge known as Karl-Anthony Towns. It was a fair statement to make, because every time Teague was getting big assist games, Towns was right there, making…
Read MoreTaj Gibson 25 Points Full Highlights (3/10/2019)
Taj Gibson walked up to his locker and quickly noticed that it wasn’t set up quite how he expected it. His jersey was hanging in its place, and the customary bottle of Gatorade (orange flavor – his favorite) had been put in its spot on the shelf, but there was something unexpected there next to…

I don’t know anything about Keita Bates-Diop except that I seem to remember him being considered a steal in the second round of the draft for the Timberwolves. My knowledge of the draft, aside from the top 10 or so guys, is based entirely on what the good people at ESPN tell me during their…
