Terrence Ross didn’t have a great debut for the Magic. I don’t want to say I panicked, but… I panicked. Hard. I was pretty much yelling at my TV, telling it that Masai Ujiri pulled off another unbelievable trade and Ross was broken forever and that Dwight Howard was never coming back, no, not ever….

Norman Powell 18 Points Full Highlights (2/3/2017)
Remember when both sides of the “Norman Powell vs. Dwight Powell” argument had a valid case that their player was the better Powell in the NBA? Ha. Haha. That’s funny now. Norman Powell has solidly solidified his place as the NBA’s best Powell because he averages .1 more points per game (7.2 to 7.3) and…
Read MoreFred VanVleet 15 Points Full Highlights (2/3/2017)
Fred VanVleet can now be considered a player who is good enough to take other players’ minutes. Not really what I expected from him this early in his career (truth be told I didn’t expect anything except nothing), but okay. That’s cool. Also if you take minutes from Bruno Caboclo that doesn’t count, but that…
Read MoreNorman Powell 18 Points Full Highlights (1/31/2017)
Are the Raptors the most stacked team ever when it comes to having guards who can dunk? Peep this: -DeMar DeRozan: well-known, prolific dunker who owns last year’s top dunk -Terrence Ross: his career has been disappointing, except for the dunking part, where he has a proclivity for windmills (or, as the Raptors announcer calls…
Read MoreJonas Valanciunas 20 Points Full Highlights (1/31/2017)
It’s pop quiz time! I hope you’ve been watching your Raptors games and been taking good notes because this one is a doozy. Question 1: whose fault is it that Jonas Valanciunas struggled during the Raptors’ losing streak? a) DeMar DeRozan b) Dwayne Casey c) Kyle Lowry d) Jonas Valanciunas Question 2: since it is…
Read MoreNorman Powell 19 Points Full Highlights (1/27/2017)
Norman Powell AKA Normal Powenn has had three good games in a row in the absence of DeMar DeRozan AKA DeChuck DeBrickzan, scoring 16, 21, and now 19 points in consecutive games. I could have and probably should have made a highlight video for his 21-point outing, but I had already done so my videos…
Read MoreLucas Nogueira 13 Points/1 Three Full Highlights (1/22/2017)
The Raptors have lost three in a row now, and all three were teams they should have beaten: -76ers (Who cares if they’re hot right now, so hot right now, they’re still the Sixers) -Hornets (The Raptors lost by thirty. I bet all their fans wanted to trade DeRozan after) -Suns (All hope is lost….
Read MoreFred VanVleet 10 Points Full Highlights (1/17/2017)
Cross another one off the list. I can rest easy knowing that if I died tomorrow, the DTB Highlights Archivium would contain within its storied walls a VHS tape showing Fred VanVleet scoring points in an NBA game. In case you’re wondering, yes, VHS is the preferred storage format of The Archivium. It was either…
Read MoreCory Joseph Career High 33 Points Full Highlights (1/17/2017)
I don’t know whether to be impressed or appalled by this performance by Cory Joseph. His 33 points, which totally demolished whatever meager career-high he had set previously, are certainly very impressive. Especially when you consider that they basically all came as a result of his own shot-creating ability; only two of these baskets were…
Read MoreNorman Powell 21 Points Full Highlights (1/15/2017)
Is it just me or does Norman “Norm Median” Powell kind of look like Derrick Rose? It’s not just me. It can’t be, because I’m looking at this thumbnail, and I’m seeing a slighty less dopey-looking version of D-Rose. This is something that everyone blessed with the holy gift of sight should be able to…
