Robbie Hummel Career High 13 Points Full Highlights (12/1/2014)

Somehow, whenever people are talking about the young talent that the Timberwolves possess, Robbie Hummel gets left out. Sure, he’s already 25 and likely on the decline, but it’s still only his second year in the league. That qualifies a player for being young talent in my book. While doing research for this description, I…

Shabazz Muhammad Career High 28 Points Full Highlights (11/30/2014)

If you are anything like me (6’5”, rippling muscles, exquisitely proportioned face, perfect jumpshot) you were really looking forward to watching the Timberwolves this year. Ricky Rubio throwing lobs to Andrew Wiggins and Zach LaVine? Pekovic pekking the crap out of opposing centers? Anthony Bennett not being a bust? They had an exciting thing going…

Andrew Wiggins 14 Points Full Highlights (11/21/2014)

The last good veteran player on the Timberwolves, Kevin Martin, is out indefinitely with an injury. You know what that means! Unadulterated tanking madness! Perhaps tanking isn’t the right word. They simply don’t have any choice right now but to play their young players and hope for the best. This should excite fans, like myself,…

Anthony Bennett Career High 20 Points Full Highlights (11/21/2014)

Kevin Love 16.7 ppg Andrew Wiggins 10.7 ppg + Anthony Bennett 5.9 ppg = 16.6ppg Those stats are from before tonight’s games, so the numbers for the #1 picks will go up and Love’s will go down. That’s a pretty good trade for the Wolves just from a raw production standpoint, not to mention the…

Shabazz Muhammad 17 Points/3 Dunks Full Highlights

Do not be deceived by my YouTube-enabled trickery. Shabazz Muhammad did not have a particularly good game on this outing. 6-of-15 shooting is not a very good mark, although his three dunks were a “SICK SHOW!!!!!” Bazz still only has one move, and if he ever wants to be a consistent scorer, he needs more…

Kevin Martin 34 Points Full Highlights (11/15/2014)

So it turns out that the Timberwolves really aren’t good when Ricky Rubio isn’t around to not suck. Their trumpeted cadre of young talent is not having a fun time, though to be fair it was unreasonable to expect Anthony Bennett to be able to do anything. Kevin Martin, as savvy and veteran as always,…

Shabazz Muhammad 18 Points Full Highlights (11/15/2014)

The scene outside the 10th floor window was dispiriting. The first real snowfall of the year was always the saddest. It had already been too miserable outdoors to have any fun, but the sight of this much snow just drove the point in harder. Sighing, Shabazz turned from the window and flopped down on his…

Zach LaVine 13 Points/1 Dunk Full Highlights (11/14/2014)

Ricky Rubio is gone, presumably having migrated south with the rest of his kind. The Timberwolves should have anticipated this and prepared themselves better; nevertheless, they are now down to two options at point guard: Mo Williams who was an All-Star, and Zach LaVine, who is a rookie and not really a point guard at…

Andrew Wiggins 20 Points Full Highlights (11/14/2014)

I just watched Jabari Parker play some of the worst defense ever as the Bucks lost. That’s why I made these highlights; to see a rookie scoring a bunch of points without me having to even think about other aspects of his game. That’s also why you watch these things, to surround yourself in a…

Corey Brewer 18 Points Full Highlights (11/12/2014)

Corey Brewer is definitely in the top 10 “NBA Players Who Appear to Have a Drug Problem”. He is also in the bottom 10 of “NBA Players Who Appear to Have a Steroid Problem”. His arms are twigs, his legs are twigs, his head is a twig, and his torso is – you guessed it…
