I’m tired of these players with their little hair doodles cluttering up my channel. First it was Kelly Oubre, then Buddy Hield, now Myles Turner. Three hair-doodled players in a row. Totally unacceptable. There are other hairstyles, you know. Imagine how amazing Myles Turner would look (and play) if he had a huge Artis Gilmore-esque…

Myles Turner 22 Points/4 Blocks Full Highlights (12/12/2016)
Myles Turner is a three-point shooter now. The sooner we accept that fact, the sooner we can move on with our lives. We can wish all we want that things would be different, but there is no closing Pandora’s box. What is done is done, and we have to live with the consequences. James Naismith…

Myles Turner: yet another innocent victim of a league driven insane by the allure of the three-point shot. OR Myles Turner: grateful beneficiary of a league where crude positional designations no longer determine what shots one can and cannot take. Which statement contains the truth, and which statement holds only lies? The funny thing about…

It’s hard for me not to get hyped when I see a big man make this many jumpers. Myles Turner doesn’t just make one or two jumpers per game; his whole offensive repertoire seems to consist of jumpshots in every conceivable form. Basketball-reference says he’s shooting 60% from the long midrange area, which, if true,…

I said in a description last year that I’d take Myles Turner over Jabari Parker. I was maybe being a little reactionary when I penned those words, but I still believe that the difference is less than people think, that while Jabari has a better pedigree and athleticism that… Screw it. I’ll say it again:…

I am convinced. No more persuasion needed. This IS the year. Not next year, not two years from now, not in a decade or two or twenty. THIS is the year Myles Turner becomes a beast. You may argue that he was already a beast. I can dig that. In that case, let’s say that…

One of my favorite things to do on the internet (other than make highlight videos) is to go on Raptors message boards after they lose a game. The funness factor of that activity gets multiplied by like a hundred if the game in question is a playoff game. and it gets multiplied by a bajillion…

The Pacers are playoffs-bound. Somehow. Is Paul George really so good that he can carry this underwhelming-on-paper roster to a playoff spot? The team’s second best player is probably Ian Mahinmi. A team with him as the second best player would normally be a team in the deepest throes of tanking. I feel uneasy giving…

Myles Turner is already the best offensive big on the Pacers. This is a fact, and one of the properties of a fact is that losers on the internet are not allowed to dispute its factuality. Jordan Hill, the other midrange shooting big on the roster, is a decent offensive player but he’s not Brook…
