https://youtu.be/NXZQCF_GHT4 There was a time when I considered Naz “Big Nazty” Reid to be the second coming of Jeff Adrien. I know that, for a lot of you, that comparison lacks any meaning at all because you don’t know who Jeff Adrien is. And I also know that, for a different segment of my viewership,…

https://youtu.be/eWZGSGE2opY If Naz Reid had hit that game-tying shot, man, that would’ve been the gnarliest thing ever. Leading his team back from a huge deficit, hitting the game-tier, who knows what he would’ve done in overtime, and best of all, he would’ve qualified to enter the Hall Of The Thirty Point Scorers, where he could…

I haven’t seen a whole lot of him (no one has, unless you’re on of those perverts who actually watches G-League games), but from what I can tell, Naz Reid is basically the same caliber of scorer as Karl-Anthony Towns.

I’m pretty sure Naz Reid thought that this was a G-League game (with a suspiciously big crowd), because the 16 shots he attempted tonight is an amount more in line with what he’s been doing with the Iowa Wolves than anything he should be doing in the real-life NBA.

Naz Reid is under contract for three years after this, getting paid around 6 million in total. That seems like an awful long kind of contract for a player like Reid, but only this year is guaranteed, which basically means that if he doesn’t pan out like they want, they can cut him at any…
