“Hey, Trevor, excited for the new XBox that’s coming out? I already got my preorder in.” “Naw man, I’m holding out for the PS4. I hear it’s gonna be tight. Graphics so good they’ll make your mind explode. While you’re playing with your little kiddy console in 720p I’m gonna be quickscoping noobs in glorious…

Official NBA players named after birds power rankings: 1. Nene 2. Rory Sparrow 3. Robin Lopez 4. Brian Cardinal 5. Guy Sparrow 6. Robin Jones 7. Mark Crow Not a very long list, though I’m sure I missed some. And no, Larry Bird doesn’t count. Neither does Otis Birdsong. Don’t be stupid.

The Wizards are yet another example of why getting tons of high picks doesn’t always lead to championships. Or playoff appearances. Or winning records. I know it takes time, which they have in spades, but it also takes good management, something they are sorely lacking. Or you could just blame Jan Vesely. That guy sucks….
Read MoreMarcin Gortat 19 Points Full Highlights (11/6/2013)
How often do you think Gortat gets propositioned by chicks with the line “I want some Polish sausage”? Weekly? Daily? 10 times before he even walks into the club? It must have happened at least one time. Variants such as “I’m dying for your juicy kielbasa right now” and “I hear the Poles have the…

What’s up with the NBA this year? I know it’s early, but teams that seemed to be blatantly tanking (Phoenix, Philadelphia) are doing good while teams who went all in for the playoffs (Wizards) are not. Probably just an anomaly that will correct itself in a few weeks, but it’s still cool to see crappy…
Read MoreTrevor Ariza 28 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (10/30/2013)
Sometimes I wonder if NBA players even know about the concept of “efficiency”. The ones who shoot the lowest percentages tend to shoot the highest amount of shots. Now, I know that if you were to command Andre Drummond to shoot fifteen times a game, he would not keep up his insane percentages. However, you…
Read MoreRashard Lewis 17 Points Full Highlights (4/10/2013)
Last season with the Wizards, Rashard Lewis got paid 21 million dollars to put up eight points per game on sub-40% shooting and sub-30% from deep. So as a thank you to the franchise that took on his bloated, crushing contract, he dropped a season-high 17 on them. For the benefit of the American contingent…
Read MoreAJ Price 23 Points/5 Threes Full Highlights (4/10/2013)
AJ Price of the Wizards just scored 23 points. That’s pretty cool. A season-high, in fact. But hold your applause! In the 32 minutes that AJ Price played, he failed to get a single assist, even though he’s a point guard. This puts him in some elite company in terms of point-guard ball-hogging this year:…

“Hey Brad!” “Yeah?” “Great game, tonight. You shot the hell out of the ball!” “Hey, thanks a bunch, Cartier.” “You got the attention of the people in the stands tonight, that’s for sure. You even, uh, got the attention of someone special tonight, did you notice?” “Oh, you mean Denise? No I didn’t notice. I’m…
