Quincy Miller 13 Points Full Highlights (1/23/2015)

I’m sure there are a lot of good things about Quincy Miller. Blah blah length blah blah athleticism blah blah shooting blah blah blah. However, there’s one thing that forever taints him in my view. He shoots his free throws too fast. Usually a player has a whole ritual that he goes through before he…

Nik Stauskas 11 Points Full Highlights (1/23/2015)

The way the Kings’ commentators were going on about Nik Stauskas’ confidence, I have to think that he’s currently in a pretty bad mental state. His recent DNP’s and the trade rumors swirling like a tempest around him can’t help. It also doesn’t help that every time he makes a shot they say something like…

Jason Thompson 23 Points/22 Rebounds Full Highlights (1/17/2015)

Is Jason Thompson the worst player to get a 20-20 game in this millennium? When you converse with Kings fans all they can do is repeat over and over anecdotes of J-Thomp’s awfulness. He’s scoring at an improbably low rate for a guy who isn’t utterly offensively handicapped. He still gets to start because of…

Nik Stauskas 13 Points Full Highlights (1/9/2015)

I admit I had my posterior firmly planted on the Nik Stauskas hype train leading up to the draft. I was led astray by home videos of him shooting threes in the rain, by deviously constructed highlight packages, by the general overexpectations for rookies, and by the collective hivemind of a bunch of dudes on…

Derrick Williams 17 Points Full Highlights (1/1/2015)

Were the hype levels for Derrick Williams ever anywhere near the hype levels that Wiggins and Parker are getting this year? He was drafted four years ago and I don’t really remember. If he was hyped to that level, there would still be people who are excited him even today, but that doesn’t seem to…

Omri Casspi 16 Points Full Highlights (12/22/2014)

Sometimes I wish I could be as surprised by the contents of highlight videos as you guys all are. Each new vid is like a Christmas present waiting to be opened; who knows what delights could be inside? You could end up with a PS4 (or Xbone (or gaming PC)) or another damned fruitcake. That’s…

Ben McLemore 22 Points Full Highlights (12/18/2014)

After a poor rookie season, Ben McLemore is finally showing us why he was drafted seventh overall in the 2013 draft. His three-point shot has come along well and, in general, he’s just shooting better from everywhere on the court. I don’t exactly remember, since I’m drunk for most of these descriptions, but I probably…

Ben McLemore 21 Points Full Highlights (12/11/2014)

The Kings being this good disrupts my perception of the world. For the past decade they have sucked relentlessly, and my world became a world where the Kings could never be good. The purple guys from Sacramento could be relied upon to accumulate a collection of disparate talents and try to win, then fail and…

Nik Stauskas 15 Points Full Highlights (12/8/2014)

Wow, a good game for Nik Stauskas! Double-figure scoring, it took him way less time than Anthony Bennett! In fact, this was such a nice performance that I will refrain from using my “Nik Sucksass” nickname for him, given that it does not currently describe the quality of his play. Many have been waiting for…
