The title of this video promises five dunks from Omri Casspi, and I stand by that promise. There are, indeed, five slam dunks in this video. You can verify that for yourself. However, I do not make any promises as to the quality of these dunks. In fact, I will just put the plain truth…

Omri Casspi 17 Points Full Highlights (1/16/2019)
Omri Casspi got cut by the Warriors basically because he didn’t want to shoot threes. I’m way over-simplifying here, because I have a narrative to push, but that was definitely part of it. He went from jacking tons of them at a 40 percent clip in Sacramento (remember that Casspi/Curry duel?) to barely shooting any…

By my reckoning, this twenty point game by Omri “The Casstrator” Casspi was a revenge game in two ways. Firstly, Casspi was playing against his former team, the GoLen State Larriors (because they have all L’s and no D, at least not against Casspi). Do you think it’s a coincidence that Casspi’s first twenty-point game…

It’s a rare day when I get to make highlights of a Warriors player, and it’s an even rarer day when I get to do so with the actual Warriors commentators. The Warriors are, obviously, a top-heavy team, and they are also a nationally-televised team. I think I’ve forgotten at several points this year what…

Omri Casspi’s singular career accomplishment, in the eyes of most casual fans, is that he once got into a shootout with Stephen Curry. I suppose he can’t complain about that recognition, since most role-players haven’t done anything that videogenic, but he’s done a lot more things in his career that have slipped under the radar:…

Omri Casspi is currently suffering from what I like to call “Post-snub Depression”. He was not selected to perform in the three-point contest, even after Chris Bosh clotted up and had to drop out. It’s debatable whether or not his non-inclusion was a snub or not, but it doesn’t matter what we think. What matters…

Omri Casspi reclined on his couch, tablet in hand, watching some trashy rom-com on Netflix, joined only by an empty carton that once contained General Tso’s chicken. He didn’t particularly care about the plot of the movie; there was a chick, there was a dude, and maybe, if he was lucky, they’d screw at the…

“You ask him,” whispered Darren Collison, shoving an envelope into Ben McLemore’s hands. Ben handed the envelope back to Darren as if it contained anthrax powdered. “No, you ask him.” “I said it first.” “Fine,” Ben snapped, grabbing the envelope and walking over to where Omri Casspi was sitting in front of his locker, perusing…

Omri Casspi is the perfect example of Stockholm Syndrome in the NBA. He started his career with a Kings franchise that was just as hapless then as it is now. He enjoyed some measure of individual success, although he was randomly inserted into and removed from the starting lineup by Paul Westphal, and his teammates…

Omri Casspi and Reggie Evans sat at a table, waiting for their food. “Thanks for taking me out here Reggie, I never have tried this place before.” “Yeah, I was thinkin’, you know, you bein’ Jewish and all, why not take you out to Rosenblatt’s Deli, the best place in the whole damn valley for…
