Larry Sanders 15 Points Full Highlights (12/13/2014)

Larry Sanders is a valuable player for the Bucks. He anchors their unexpectedly decent defense, and has goggles which look really rad. He might be crazy, but he brings energy to Milwaukee that they need. The only problem is that energy manifests itself as tons of fouls. He hasn’t helped his case by getting on…

Darrell Arthur 20 Points/4 Threes Full Highlights (12/13/2014)

At the very beginning of this video, one of the Nuggets commentators states his wish that Darrell “The Aardvark” Arthur would have a game where he hits “six or seven” three-pointers. This commentator believes that Arthur accomplishing this feat would lead to a Nuggets win. He’s probably right. Scoring 18 or 21 points on three-pointers…

Matt Barnes 26 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (12/13/2014)

Matt Barnes is 34 years old. This fact wouldn’t be notable except that Barnes got up for a semi-poster on the Greek Freak and then later converted another dunk on a 1-on-0 fast break. At his age, that’s pretty good! He also hit some threes, but anybody can do that. I can do that. Think…

Giannis Antetokounmpo 20 Points/3 Dunks Full Highlights (12/13/2014)

Giannis screamed. Lying, shivering, in the snowbank, he had no energy left to resist. The hooded figure approached him silently, no face visible beneath a robe made of some dark material, blacker than the deepest black. Once the apparition had reached where Giannis lay, he raised his hand in a beckon to be silent. “Don’t…

Bojan Bogdanovic 12 Points/4 Threes Full Highlights (12/13/2014)

I’m going to try out something new for those who don’t have the time to watch highlight videos: text descriptions of the events contained within! Let’s see how it turns out. Who knows, maybe I’ll start doing this in lieu of the time-consuming videos. Jarrett Jack passes it out to Alan Anderson on the wing,…

Michael Carter-Williams Triple Double 15 Pts/11 Asts/11 Rebs Full Highlights (12/13/2014)

I sometimes feel like Michael Carter-Williams gets too much flak. Yeah, he’s not perfect, he isn’t a great shooter and turns it over too much, but look at his team. There isn’t a player in the league whose stats wouldn’t be negatively affected by this tank brigade. I think this is a fair criticism of…

C.J. Watson 23 Points Full Highlights (12/13/2014)

The carousel of suck that is the Indiana Pacers season spins ever toward annihilation with the addition of CJ Watson into the starting lineup. Is Donald Sloan not good enough anymore? Because I thought that he played fairly well, admittedly my highlight-maker’s perspective might be distorted. I don’t remember much about CJ anymore. It’s been…

Hollis Thompson 21 Points/5 Threes Full Highlights (12/12/2014)

It’s too bad that the 76ers couldn’t pull off the upset tonight. I thought that this one was impossible to give away. But the 76ers are a bad team, and they did what bad teams often do: lose games in horrific ways. The good news: if Hollis Thompson had missed one of his free throws…

Donatas Motiejunas Career High 25 Points Full Highlights (12/13/2014)

I should just stop being surprised by anything that Donatas Motiejunas does anymore. I really thought, that with Dwight coming back, that he would not put up the same excellent numbers he had been. I especially didn’t think that he would improve upon those numbers. But he did! Is there nothing that this guy can’t…
