I feel like Bobby Portis has probably had Kevin Garnett comparisons thrown at him for a long time, likely since high school. I’m too lazy to look up his draft profile right now, but a ctrl+f for “Kevin Garnett” on that profile has gotta turn up a minimum of five results, right? Because the vibe…

Trevor Ariza 22 Points Full Highlights (3/6/2019)
In my opinion (which is worth a whole heck of a lot), Trevor Ariza didn’t get enough heat for straight-up quitting on the Suns. They’re the ones who paid him a ton of money, and then he gets all sulky because they weren’t winning enough games? What did he expect? Did he buy the line…
Read MoreJabari Parker 20 Points Full Highlights (3/6/2019)
It worries me how little the Wizards broadcast seemed to care about showing replays of Jabari Parker. He had some really aesthetically-pleasing dunks, but the exact level of aesthetic pleasure they offered couldn’t be accurately determined because there weren’t enough slow-motion replays from different angles to get a real feel for the dunks. The in-game…
Read MoreJabari Parker 22 Points Full Highlights (3/3/2019)
The clash between the Wizards and the Timberwolves might not have drawn a lot of eyeballs outside of the respective TV markets of Washington DC and Minnesota, but it was a game fraught with storylines simply because of all the similarities the two teams share: -Both were expected to make the playoffs, but are on…
Read MoreBobby Portis 26 Points Full Highlights (3/3/2019)
Bobby Portis had a great first game for the Washington. 30 points with a ton of sweet buckets, in a way it was a continuation of his last game for Chicago, where he scored 33 (with a ton of sweet buckets). I think I saw a stat where he was the first player ever to…
Read MoreThomas Bryant 23 Points/3 Blocks Full Highlights (2/23/2019)
Does Thomas Bryant even qualify for the MIP Improved Player award? I know a lot of people say that you can’t give it to a second-year player because drastic improvement is expected from rookies. That’s not a codified rule as far as I know (it’s more like a “guideline”), but it seems to be one…
Read MoreJeff Green 23 Points Full Highlights (2/13/2019)
There’s a lot NBA highlight channels these days. Way, way more than when I started this fool’s errand. I’ve lost track of all the ones that keep springing up, of all the ones that had once sprung up but have now unsprung themselves back into oblivion (and I swear a few of them, like my…
Read MoreJabari Parker 22 Points Full Highlights (2/13/2019)
Every time I make a Japari Parker video for uploadment to my channel, it seems as if his namesake kitty, Japurri Purrker, is aware of it. Japurri usually sits in the same room as me when I’m making highlight videos, but he doesn’t get involved in the process. He’s too sleepy for that. He just…
Read MoreTrevor Ariza 23 Points Full Highlights (2/11/2019)
Someone needs to ask Trevor Ariza where he found the Fountain of Youth, because he’s obviously been taking huge swigs from it the whole time he’s been with the ‘Zards, and I’m pretty sure there’s a lot of Spanish conquistadors who would really like to know its whereabouts. It might be too late for Juan…
Read MoreBobby Portis 24 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (2/11/2019)
The honeymoon period might have ended for Jabari Parker (he scored no points in nineteen minutes this game), but it’s still going strong for Bobby “Crazy Eyes” Portis. I would say that he’s going a long way towards establishing himself as the second banana on the Wall-less ‘Zards after Bradley Beal. He just seems to…
