Cue up the melancholy music folks, because I’m about to drop a bomb of sadness on your sorry faces.
Nicolas Batum is already 27 years old.
That means that we only have, give or take a few years, a decade remaining of sweet Nicolas Batum highlights. A decade isn’t a very long time. 9/11 was a decade and a half ago. Think about where you were in your life then (if you say you weren’t alive I will ban you from my channel you ignorant young ‘un), and where you are in your life now, and realize that they aren’t that different.
We can’t take Nicolas Batum for granted. Sure, it may seem like he’ll be playing forever. But one day, you’ll wake up, and the Las Vegas Snake Eyes will be playing, and Nicolas won’t be playing with them. Because he’ll have retired. Enjoy these highlights, friends. They won’t be the last, but they sure as heck aren’t the first either.
