Alex Len has accepted who he is. He has excised the midrange jumper from his repertoire, and now operates almost exclusively around the basket. His percentages were really bad while he was trying to show the Suns that they didn’t draft only a garbageman. I have to imagine that they did think they were getting…

Josh Jackson Career High 36 Points Full Highlights (3/17/2018)
I know you’re all getting tired of me comparing players to Giannis Antetokounmpo, but can you blame me? I watch a lot of Giannis, thus, I see a lot of his traits in other players. Player like… Josh Jackson! If you can give me one, JUST ONE, reason, that Jackson can’t be like a Giannis…
Read MoreTroy Daniels 17 Points Full Highlights (3/10/2018)
I was thinking that maybe Troy “Ménage à Troys” Daniels just had a REVENGE GAME against his former team, the Hornets, but now I’m thinking that maybe he didn’t. Scoring 17 points is fine, and by itself that number might seem somewhat vengeful, but Daniels went 6-of-15 from the field. That kind of shooting inaccuracy…
Read MoreDragan Bender 16 Points Full Highlights (3/10/2018)
If Dragan Bender doesn’t watch out, he’s gonna find himself pigeonholed into the “Big White Euro Who Only Shoots Threes” role for the rest of his career. Almost a full 3/4ths of his points are coming from the three-point zone (but is he proud to own it?????) this season, he shoots way more of them…
Read MoreShaquille Harrison 14 Points Full Highlights (3/10/2018)
The explosion of popularity of the name “Shaquille” after Shaquille O’Neal started dominating the NBA is well known. What was once an obscure name was in the top 200 baby boy names. Not surprising; parents are not known for the ability to pick creative, original names. If you’re an NFL fan, you’ve certainly noticed several…
Read MoreDavon Reed 16 Points Full Highlights (3/10/2018)
I’ve been keeping an eye on Davon Reed since the Suns saw fit to actually give him some minutes, and let me tell you, I was pretty down on his prospects of getting a DTB highlight video this season. A lot of DNPs, and when he did get DPs, he wasn’t doing much. Remember that…
Read MoreMarquese Chriss 17 Points/4 Blocks Full Highlights (3/4/2018)
Marquese “Mar-Kweezy” Chriss has been straight up booty for most of this year. He’s regressed pretty heavily from his rookie season and I’m not exactly sure why. Does he not have the trust of the coaches anymore? Earl Watson, Chriss’ rookie-year coach, was known as a “player’s coach”, so he probably would have given minutes/shots…
Read MoreElfrid Payton Triple Double 11 Pts/14 Asts/10 Rebs/1 Ejection Full Highlights (3/4/2018)
I don’t really know what Elfrid Payton did in that end-game skirmish to get ejected, but he must have done something, because he definitely wasn’t in the game or on the bench after that point. I keep rewatching the “fight” and I’m not seeing anything particularly egregious. Maybe he concealed an improvised shiv made from…
Read MoreT.J. Warren 35 Points Full Highlights (3/4/2018)
I was getting worried that T.J. Warren would have another 30-point game where he didn’t shoot a free throw (yes, it has happened before). He eventually did shoot a pair late in the game, but those were his only two. Add in his singular three-pointer and you get yet another typical Warren scoring display. Almost…
Read MoreJosh Jackson 19 Points Full Highlights (3/2/2018)
“DEE TEE BEEEE!” you whine. “Josh Jackson had twenty points two games ago and you ignored it! WAAH WAAH WAAH!” That’s what you sound like right now, tears and all. I’m fully aware that, two games ago, Josh Jackson scored twenty points, which is one more point than he scored here. Do you think I…
