J.J. Barea Career High 32 Points/11 Assists Full Highlights (12/23/2015)

J.J. Barea awoke to the blare of the hotel room alarm clock. He groggily opened his eyes, his head pounding from the night of hard partying he had just experienced. Despite the annoying alarm’s best efforts, it could not remove Barea’s memories of beautiful ladies and plentiful booze at one of New York’s most exclusive…

Aaron Gordon 14 Points/2 Dunks Full Highlights (12/23/2015)

Why does this keep happening to me? Long story short: I see Aaron Gordon has 14 in the second quarter against the Rockets, I get hyped for his upcoming career high, and then he doesn’t score again. Shorter version, for those who prefer to not read sentences: Aaron Gordon, 14 at half, DTB hype, Aaron…

Randy Foye 31 Points Full Highlights (12/23/2015)

It’s time again for everybody’s favorite experiment: the Randy Foye at point guard experiment! We got a taste of this two years ago, late in the Nuggets’ season, when Ty Lawson, Andre Miller, and Aaron Brooks (???) were all out of commission. And it lead to some pretty bananas statlines. Like a 30 and 15…

Frank Kaminsky 23 Points Full HIghlights (12/23/2015)

I’m gonna be honest with you: These might be the most unentertaining rookie-year 23 point highlights that I’ve ever seen. It’s just not fun to watch at all. Yeah, it’s Frank Kaminsky, and yeah, he’s scoring a career-high in points. That description is way more fun than the video itself. Maybe I’ve been watching too…

Beno Udrih 14 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (12/22/2015)

It turns out that Beno “Bueno” Udrih has championship rings. If you didn’t remember that, I don’t blame you, because I was not informed of this fact until around the time that the Chalmers-Udrih trade took place. It makes sense, though: he was part of two Spurs teams that won in the Finals; therefore, by…

Gary Harris 21 Points Full Highlights (12/22/2015)

After the failure of my #hypedForGaryHarris hashtag and the additional failure of my #whoCaresAboutCourtneyLee hashtag, I have come to the conclusion that the denizens of the internet are simply too stupid to understand the subtle humor yet razor-sharp commentary of a well-crafted hashtag. Either that or they’re totally apathetic to being told what hashtags they…

Nikola Jokic 15 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (12/22/2015)

The ethnic tension in the Nuggets’ locker room just keeps building. Jusuf Nurkic was the people’s champ last season with Denver, what with his antagonistic behavior and goofy personality. The next bruising Euro center, appearing out of nowhere to be a force already in his rookie year. Now I, along with the rest of America,…

Jahlil Okafor 18 Points Full Highlights (12/22/2015)

I’ve run out of stuff to say about Jahlil Okafor. Alaa Abdelnaby hasn’t, though. Which kind of sucks for everybody, because not only does Philly have the worst team in the league, they have one of the worst commentators currently working for an NBA team. It’s like when Sidney Moncrief was doing color for the…

Will Barton 25 Points Full Highlights (12/22/2015)

Will Barton just scored 50 points over four quarters of action. Not in a single game, but still. Pretty bananas, right? Right. Totally bananas. No doubt about it. He then proceeded to score 7 over the following three quarters. We can just forget about that, for the most part. Like it didn’t even happen. Why…

Stanley Johnson 14 Points Full Highlights (12/22/2015)

I saw Stanley Johnson had 14 points in the first half against the Heat, and I immediately thought to myself “Hot damn we gonna get some Stanley Johnson highlights up in this bizzitch! Can you say career high?”. I actually said it out loud, not just thought it in my head. And I really sort…
