Given that the Bucks just unexpectedly lost to the Magic by twenty points, anything negative that I say about Jonathan Isaac and his lack of production up to this point in his NBA career will be taken as the extremely salty ramblings of a butthurt Bucks fan. Since I am not even salty right now…

Markelle Fultz 15 Points/3 Threes Full Highlights (2/8/2019)
Markelle Fultz’s career high in made three-pointers has now OFFICIALLY been raised from two to three. That seems like an absurdly low number for a point guard in the modern era of the NBA. In fact, it occurred to me that a career high of three 3PM might be the lowest of any active point…
Read MoreTerrence Ross 32 Points Full Highlights (2/7/2019)
Terrence Ross is quietly becoming one of my favorite shooters in the league. I never expected that something like this would happen, honestly. Either the “favorite” part or the “shooter” part. He’s always been an okay shooter, but in Toronto, he was content to float through games without making a consistent effort to have an…
Read MoreEvan Fournier 25 Points Full Highlights (2/5/2019)
Going into this description, I was planning on criticizing Evan Fournier for his, frankly, pathetic block numbers. He only has 8 on the season, and it’s not like he’s even that short. But then I looked at his previous seasons, and aside from last year where he had 16 (!!!!!), this is actually already his…
Read MoreTerrence Ross 26 Points Full Highlights (2/5/2019)
Earlier in the season I brought up the idea that Terrence Ross, with his 14 PPG average, might have an outside shot at winning the sixth man of the year award. Now that he just had a 26-point game to complement his 30-point game a week ago, I was ready to revisit that idea. I’m…
Read MoreTerrence Ross 30 Points Full Highlights (1/31/2019)
I would consider this game by Terrence Ross to be his real career-high. Not that fake-ass 51-point fluke of the century. This is REAL. 30 REAL points, scored in a legitimate manner and not in an illegitimate manner like that stupid game all those years ago. The only thing stopping from putting “Career High” in…
Read MoreJonathan Isaac 16 Points/3 Blocks Full Highlights (1/23/2019)
I think it’s great that the Magic are giving 25 MPG to Jonathan Isaac. It will really help his development when all is said and done to have gotten plenty of minutes early in his career. He’s not being overused like some highly-touted rookies are; he’s playing the correct amount of minutes for his level…
Read MoreEvan Fournier 29 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (1/21/2019)
I’m going to let you in on a little secret. You might think that your precious, beloved DTB is above selling out to multi-national corporations for monetary gain. You might think that journalistic ethics stand between his furtherment of the scrub cause and the relentless pursuit of straight up raw cash. I’m telling you right…
Read MoreTerrence Ross 24 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (1/16/2019)
The trade deadline is coming right up (actually i just checked and it’s still almost a month away???? wtf i want trades), but there’s nothing in the CBA that says that the Magic can’t trade Terrence Ross RIGHT NOW. I also looked, and there doesn’t seem to be a rule that covers a team trading…
Read MoreAaron Gordon 28 Points Full Highlights (1/12/2019)
When I saw that Aaron Gordon scored 28 points in the Magic’s improbable win over the Celtics, I immediately thought one thing: SLAG has returned. (SLAG is my nickname for Gordon – it stands for Summer League Aaron Gordon, but the nickname is not always applicable.) Then, my eye slid across his statline, only to…
