Lost in an anesthetic haze, Wes Matthews wandered the deserted corridors of his mind. In the waking world, doctors were working tirelessly to repair his torn Achilles tendon, but in the inner world of Wes’ psyche, all was quiet, a side effect of the anesthesia that had ostensibly halted the workings of his brain. In…

The hype train for Wesley Matthews remains disturbingly empty. I walk amongst the cars, taking a break from my conductorly duties, and see only a few older gentlemen, asleep on the seats, dressed in well-worn Walton jerseys. In the rear I stumble upon a contingent of fans from his alma mater, Marquette, and from his…

Quietly, without anyone noticing, Wesley Matthews snuck into the NBA league office. It was late, and the only security guard on duty was taking a not-very-well-earned nap. There was nothing of true value here, unless one considered fake plants and other generic cubicle farm detritus “valuable”. Wesley wasn’t here for that stuff. Damian Lillard had…

Whenever I make a video featuring Wesley Matthews, I just prepare for the fact that it won’t get any views. Not that I care about view counts, since I’m just making videos for my own enjoyment, but I know that I don’t need to try as hard writing a description when only 1,200 people will…

His mom had admonished him when he had…

Adam Silver paced his office frantically. A few high-ranking NBA executives sat in the office with him, glancing at each other uneasily. “We have to do something to distract the viewers from the Sterling debacle.” Silver finally pronounced, continuing to tread the same path between his desk and the window. “Something bold, but not too…

Wesley Matthews 24 Points Full Highlights (1/23/2014)

For a guy who scores a fair amount of points on a very good team, and who makes and takes a bunch of threes, it seems like Wesley Matthews doesn’t get the attention he deserves. I don’t understand. He’s the kind of player the people should love. He’s efficient. His advanced stats look good. His…

“Defense wins championships” – Everybody ever This antiquated wisdom might have been true in the old days. But no longer. Not when a team like the Trailblazers is a threat for 20 threes on any given night. Who needs defense when the offensive spacing is so good that even Robin Lopez looks adequate? It is…
