Another occasion where an individual all-time single-game record is in reach and the player in question doesn’t even get it. Seems to be happening a lot recently. The only reason I watch the NBA is because eventually someone will score 101 and I don’t want to miss it. In this case it’s the single-game three…

Bradley Beal Career High 37 Points Full Highlights (2/11/2014)
After years of bungled draft picks and wasted assets, the Wizards are finally starting to resemble a decent team. Given that it’s been “their year” for like half a decade I’d say it’s about time. John Wall is looking somewhat like the superstar point guard he was supposed to be. Nene and Gortat bring veteran…
Read MoreKevin Seraphin 19 Points Full Highlights (2/3/2014)
Watch these highlights. Pretty impressive, yeah? Kevin Seraphin sure shot the heck out of the ball. Some nice offensive moves. But something seems to be missing. What could it be? Of course! There are no passing highlights! You know why that is? Because Kevin Seraphin doesn’t pass the ball. He is a black hole on…
Read MoreMarcin Gortat 19 Points/4 Blocks Full Highlights (1/20/2014)
Martell Webster, seated next to Marcin on the bench, decided it would be a good time to bring up his plans. “Yo Marcin, I know it’s your birthday today, so me and the guys thought we would take you out to a strip joint for some partyin’.” Marcin smiled happily. He hadn’t expected anybody to…
Read MoreKevin Seraphin 18 Points Full Highlights (1/11/2014)
Strange night in Washington DC. Through two rain delays (typical DC infrastructure), the Rockets managed to gain a 25 point lead, which they then promptly gave up in the face of the apparently unstoppable Kevin Seraphin. The Wizards went up by 5, and then decided it was their turn to stop scoring entirely, and ended…
Read MoreJan Vesely 12 Points Full Highlights (1/8/2014)
I’ve been watching too many Wizards games for my own good. Why do I subject myself to it? Because anything seems good compared to watching the Bucks. Anyway, I’ve noticed that the Wizards are making a concerted effort to play Jan Vesely. He’s always looked good in Summer League, even hitting jumpers, and apparently he…
Read MoreBradley Beal 21 Points Full Highlights (1/7/2014)
Bradley Beal heard a knock at his door. He looked up from the letter he was penning in surprise. “Who could my visitor be? I am not anticipating the company of any of my friends. Perhaps it is that beggar Vesely, beseeching me for scraps from my table. What a detestable fellow that man is.”…
Read MoreMartell Webster 30 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (12/16/2013)
Type “Martell Webster” into the YouTube search box and the first thing it suggests for you is “Martell Webster dunk instead of 3”. This is a travesty. Yeah, it was a stupid play, but the past is the past. W-Mart is a totally different player now. One could even posit that he has fulfilled the…
Read MoreKevin Seraphin 16 Points Full Highlights (12/14/2013)
The Wizards have pretty much given up playing Kevin Seraphin. Who can blame them? He’s a chucker who doesn’t draw fouls. He doesn’t pass the ball. He doesn’t play defense but somehow fouls a lot anyway. His one positive attribute, his scoring ability, is not even that good. Keep in mind that I am in…
Read MoreTrevor Booker 24 Points/14 Rebounds Full Highlights (12/13/2013)
Trevor Booker was fuming. So close to the win, only to have in snatched from his fingertips! The injustice of it was absolutely maddening. Sitting in the locker room post-game, he scowled at the floor, consumed with dark thoughts. Glen Rice approached him. “Hey Book, you wanna-” He was cut off by the intense hate…
