Ben Simmons needs to average a triple-double this season. He’s not even far off the pace right now, only a few assists shy. Points and rebounds are the simple part; just spam shots and abandon playing defense in order to grab boards and you can get 10 of each easily. Assists, though, are pretty tough….

J.J. Redick 22 Points Full Highlights (10/25/2017)
The Philadelphia 76ers are in the “Win Now” part of their process. No more tanking, no more injuries, no more lineups composed wholly of D-Leaguers. Wins are the goal, playoffs are the goal. And an important part of the transition was to sign some savvy vets who can savvily impart their savvy vet wisdom on…

Lost in the resplendent glory of the 76ers young core of Ben Simmons, Joel Embiid, and Markelle Fultz is the knowledge of who remains their best player: Robert Covington. That’s right, I said it, and I’ll say it again too. Robert Covington. Robert Covington. Rob đź‘Ź Ert đź‘Ź Cov đź‘Ź Ing đź‘Ź Ton đź‘Ź. I…
Read MoreBen Simmons 18 Points 76ers Debut Full Highlights (10/18/2017)
If there was ever a rookie who is ineligible for this channel, Ben Simmons is it. The man needs no introduction as the most hyped neophyte since LeBron James. Him missing an entire year only added to the hype. All the mystique around “the process”; even more hype. He is the next big thing, the…
Read MoreAlex Poythress 18 Points Full Highlights (4/12/2017)
One would think that Alex Poythress’ strong finish to the season would guarantee him a spot on the Sixers next year. I mean, he probably will be on the team next year, but whenever I think of promising young Sixers who were dumped to the wayside, I think of one guy: Henry Sims. Also Hollis…
Read MoreJustin Anderson Career High 26 Points Full Highlights (4/12/2017)
There’s just something about the 76ers that allows them to turn one team’s trash into another team’s treasure. Or, as Marc Zumoff likes to say, “Turns garbage… into gold!”. My theory is that something is the expectation of having no expectations; no one cares if you win or lose, in fact losing is preferred, so…
Read MoreAlex Poythress 15 Points/5 Threes Full Highlights (4/10/2017)
Alex “Poythrees” Poythress did not strike me, on first inspection, as a three-point shooter. Had I inspected deeper, I would have discovered that he shot threes in the D-League, but I did not. So this performance comes as a total surprise to me. It probably does to you as well, unless you’ve been following this…

This career-high performance by Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot marks the 5th time in 6 games that he has lead his team in scoring. See? I can be a fancy-pants professional sports journalist just like those other dudes with their fancy-pants stats and professionalism. No problemo. Would a talentless hack who only writes BS for YouTube video descriptions…
