My standard for videos these days is if it doesn’t get 1,000 views, it probably should never have been brought into this world. Such is the case with my “Ian Mahinmi 12 Points Full Highlights” from early November. Right now it stands at 997 views (actually probably 998 because I just clicked on it and…

Shabazz Muhammad 22 Points Full Highlights (1/8/2016)
Count me among those who thought that Shabazz Muhammad was going to be a bust when he came into the league with only one move, a lefty hook from ten feet. This was after he didn’t even win the NCAA tournament while at UCLA and after he had like ten hookers in his room at…
Read MoreAaron Gordon 14 Points Full Highlights (1/8/2016)
Right now the Magic are ruining Aaron Gordon’s development. Ruining. I mean, Gordon became a three-point shooter just so he would compare more favorably to Channing Frye. When your full-of-potential fourth-overall pick starts trying to reinvent himself as Channing Frye 0.5, that counts as you having ruined your young player’s development. If anything, Gordon should…
Read MoreTyreke Evans 27 Points Full Highlights (1/8/2016)
How about that! Tyreke Evans has officially become a good three-point shooter after ranging from mediocre in some seasons to outright terrible in other seasons. Given those fluctuations in his shooting numbers, I’m not totally convinced that he will continue to shoot the three as well as he has so far, or that he will…
Read MoreIman Shumpert 23 Points Full Highlights (1/8/2016)
Am I a bad NBA fan for not having listened to any of Iman Shumpert’s rap output? I mean, I listened to “What the Kidd Did”, penned by Jason Kidd, and it was, you know, not really all that good, even by my relatively undemanding standards of rap as a genre. Not blaming Kidd here,…
Read MoreKarl-Anthony Towns 22 Points Full Highlights (1/8/2016)
Now these are what I call highlights! Eleven buckets in a row, no replays, no free throws, no assists, no blocks, no steals, no intros, no outros, nothing except frickin’ BUCKETS. Hell yeah! This is the essence of highlights in their purest ideal. Those other things are just filler, distracting from the true point of…
Read MoreGerald Green 21 Points/2 Dunks Full Highlights (1/8/2016)
I saw it, you saw it, we all saw it. We all saw how Gerald Green stared at the Suns’ bench after canning a contested three-pointer. What we didn’t see was the look that he gave them. Was it a “I hate you all so much taste my fury in the form of triples” or…
Read MoreBrandon Rush 20 Points Full Highlights (1/8/2016)
Brandon Rush: third splash brother? Let’s take a look at the facts. Fact 1: Is shooting 45% from three, about as good as Steph and better than Klay. Fact 2: Is male, which qualifies him for being a splash “brother” rather than a splash “sister”. Fact 3: Is on the Warriors, unlike other candidates such…
Read MoreKristaps Porzingis 28 Points Full Highlights (1/8/2016)
“How long do you think we wait in line for rye bread?”, Kristaps Porzingis asked as he approached the Walmart. Carmelo Anthony stopped walking and looked at his teammate. “You say this is your first time going to a grocery store?” “American grocery store, yes. I have been to many grocery store in Latvia, and…
Read MoreDennis Schröder 14 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (1/7/2016)
This video is not even really about Dënniß ßchrööder. Sure, it’s his name in the title and most of the clips show him doing stuff on the basketball court, but to say that this video is about him is like saying that the Bible is about God just because he gets mentioned three times per…
