Boy, the Suns are really going to be enjoying these 29 points from Josh Jackson when they’re watching all the top-tier prospects get taken in the draft and they have to settle for Trae Young! NOT. It’s great that Jackson silenced his doubters and put together a legit scoring performance in an NBA game against…

Troy Daniels 17 Points Full Highlights (2/23/2018)
The comments of the Suns commentators got me thinking: when are we gonna see Troy “Triple Troy” Daniels in the three-point contest? Getting into the contest isn’t all about percentage (although Daniels’ percentage is currently a somewhat pedestrian [for him] 40.2%); it’s also about volume, and that’s where Daniels falls short. One of three things…
Read MoreJosh Jackson 19 Points Full Highlights (2/23/2018)
The good: Josh Jackson scored 19 points in 23 minutes. He took eighteen shots, but as long as he scores more points than he attempts field goals, that’s fine. He also had a big-time whamjam which later earned him the nickname “Josh ‘Clyde’ Jackson” from Suns commentator Eddie Johnson. The bad: Josh Jackson fouled out…
Read MoreT.J. Warren 27 Points Full Highlights (2/23/2018)
These are not, in my opinion which means more than yours, the greatest T.J. Warren highlights ever assembled. But since all of my older ones got deleted, this particular vid becomes, de facto, the best! I hope you like leak-out transition layups. And a three. That’s really the high point of the vid, once you…
Read MoreJosh Jackson 22 Points Full Highlights (2/14/2018)
Josh Jackson continues to be aggressive. He doesn’t care that he just went 4-of-18 in a 46-point loss. He doesn’t care that the Suns can’t win a game anymore. He’s going to go out there and attack the rim in every way that he knows how. Mostly by driving right at it and seeing if…
Read MoreElfrid Payton Triple Double 13 Pts/12 Asts/11 Rebs Full Highlights (2/14/2018)
Anyone else getting some Steve Nash vibes from Elfrid Payton in a Suns jersey? No? Just me? Fine. Payton already has half the amount of triple-doubles in Phoenix that Nash did during his whole time there, so I can see why the comparison might fall a little flat. Also, Dragan Bender is no Amar’e. The…
Read MoreElfrid Payton 29 Points Full Highlights (2/12/2018)
I can’t tell what the Magic are doing right now, I don’t know why they’d sell so low on Elfrid Payton, but that’s in the past now. It doesn’t matter what they’re doing, because Payton is now a whole continent away where they can’t hurt him anymore. For the time being, at least. Another thing…
Read MoreElfrid Payton 19 Points/9 Assists Suns Debut Full Highlights (2/10/2018)
Apparently a point guard averaging 13 and 6 while shooting 52 percent from the field is only worth a second-round pick these days? This snarky comment was brought to you by the Payton Hair Preservation Association, whose stated goal is the preservation of Elfrid Payton’s hair due to its status as a unique representation of…
Read MoreJosh Jackson 20 Points/5 Assists/4 Blocks Full Highlights (2/10/2018)
Josh Jackson has been taking some lessons from T.J. Warren, the main lesson being: if you want BUCKETS, just cut to the rim over and over until your dumbass teammates figure out what you’re doing and give you the ball. Is Warren old enough to be a vet? Because that is some vet wisdom right…
Read MoreT.J. Warren 31 Points Full Highlights (2/10/2018)
I estimate that I’ve seen around 40 percent of T.J. Warren’s buckets this year just from doing highlights. Maybe even more. I’m not going to go in the exact details of the maths I used to come to that number, but rest assured, it was very complex maths. Luckily my sciency dork friend had a…
