Andrew Wiggins 23 Points Full Highlights (12/15/2015)

As the first day of drills wound down, Andrew decided that he was not quite having fun yet. The afternoon had been spent doing passes: chest passes, bounce passes, and passes off the dribble, both towards targets taped to the wall and to other campers. This was an area where Andrew was not significantly ahead…

Randy Foye 19 Points Full Highlights (12/15/2015)

Note to self: never get hyped about a performance in progress. EVER. Randy Foye had 17 points in the second quarter tonight against the Timberwolves. Randy Foye. Seventeen. One quarter. He was telling the his former team “Why did you ever get rid of me I could be your starting shooting guard take a look…

Gary Neal 24 Points Full Highlights (12/14/2015)

Gary “Kobe 0.6” Neal is continuing to play well and continuing to make me look like a fool for hating on him constantly for the past four years. I could gloat over his career-low assist percentage, but it would feel a little petty given that he’s currently nailing 45% of his three-pointers, so there should…

J.J. Redick 24 Points Full Highlights (12/14/2015)

I don’t pay much attention to player tattoos, but has J.J. Redick always had that big Virgin Mary (or whatever it is) covering his whole left arm? I seem to remember him having some small amount of tattooage a few years ago, or maybe he didn’t, but I think my brain would definitely have some…

Jahlil Okafor 22 Points Full Highlights (12/14/2015)

Say what you will about Jahlil Okafor’s deficiencies in certain areas of the game, but damn, it’s fun to watch him get buckets. He might not be the most efficient at getting buckets, or have the best bucket-selection. Maybe he could get fewer buckets and work on passing. Three-point buckets are not a thing for…

Will Barton 23 Points/1 Poster Dunk Full Highlights (12/14/2015)

Dunk of the year? Dunk of the year. Will Barton pretty much totally performed an exorcism Donatas Motiejunas, except instead of exorcising just the evil spirits he also took a huge chunk of his soul and little bits of his vital organs. It was kind of spooky watching D-Mo flop around for a bit after…

Kent Bazemore Career High 28 Points Full Highlights (12/14/2015)

Highlight making is a weird business. As I was compiling these highlights, I noticed Gerald Green hitting a jumper in between two Kent Bazemore buckets. Problem was, despite doing a vid of Gerald just before starting this one, I had never seen that particular jumper before! I felt annoyed; reuploading a video to amend an…

Gerald Green 20 Points Full Highlights (12/14/2015)

Kobe Bryant is retiring. That’s what he said, at least, and I’ll take him at his word on this one. The end of an era, or something, right? Yeah. His imminent departure from the NBA opens up a huge hole. A hole that is called “who is going to shoot a whole bunch of bad…

Gary Harris 21 Points Full Highlights (12/14/2015)

Yes! With this new career high for Gary Harris, my hype for Gary Harris is justified! Take that, Gary Harris haters, you lowly scum of the earth. How foolish you must feel, hating on Gary Harris as he continues to improve as a basketball player, paying no heed to your Gary Harris hating. It is…

Donatas Motiejunas 19 Points Full Highlights (12/14/2015)

I made a lot of sick highlight videos last year. A LOT. I also made some not-so-sick highlight videos, which have been now, appropriately, forgotten to the relentless march of time. Lost to all but the most ardent basketball historians, these videos will slowly decay into component bits and bytes, until, in hundreds of years,…
