The most embarrassing thing you can do on the basketball court is bank in a corner three. Banking in threes from the corner should be avoided whenever possible. Those prone to banking in threes from the corner should just avoid shooting corner threes entirely. Nobody told this to Dante “Crafty Pork” Cunningham, who has been…

Alan Anderson 18 Points Full Highlights (3/2/2016)
It’s unlikely that Alan “Kobe 0.1” Anderson continues to shoot 50% from three as he has done in his first four games back from surgery, but for this moment, just this one moment, let us relish the fact that old man Alan is contributing to winning basketball for a team with playoff aspirations. I want…
Read MoreMarcelo Huertas 9 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (3/2/2016)
Marcelo “The Brazilian Hobbit” Huertas is an old rookie. Like, 32 old. That’s old. Not quite Pablo Prigioni old, but still old. In fact, Pablo Prigioni is probably a good comparison for plenty of superficial reasons: -Both old -Both Euro -And by Euro I mean South American -Both point guards -Both don’t score very much…
Read MoreD.J. Augustin 26 Points Full Highlights (3/2/2016)
Twenty-two points is a lot to score in one quarter unless your name is Klay Thompson. It’s especially a lot if your name happens to be D.J. Augustin. However, that total is exactly the amount that Augustin managed to score during the fourth quarter of the Nuggets-Lakers game! Crazy, huh? That’s the sort of thing…
Read MoreNorris Cole 21 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (3/2/2016)
Do you want to hear something SUPER SPOOKY? If you don’t, I recommend that you stop reading right here, otherwise you might get spooked out of your shorts. [SPOOK GAP – KEEP READING FOR SPOOKS] The last time I made a Norris Cole highlight video, which was five days ago (not like anybody would know…
Read MoreZach LaVine 21 Points/1 Dunk Full Highlights (3/2/2016)
Must be tough for Zach LaVine to lose the dunk contest after winning it the year previous and having been the favorite going in. When your main calling card is dunking, and someone beats you at your own game? Tough. Stephen Curry is doing alright after losing the three-point shootout, but he’s an exception. I…
Read MoreEmmanuel Mudiay 22 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (3/2/2016)
You already know all about how Emmanuel Mudiay is doing this year (hint: it’s not good) (extra bonus hint: it’s like historically bad dude oh man it’s so bad), so I’m not even going to go into it. If you’re a Nuggets fan, it would just made you sad to be reminded. If you’re not…
Read MoreD’Angelo Russell 24 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (3/2/2016)
*YAWN* What’s that you say? D’Angelo Russell scored 24 and had 6 assists? Wow! That’s so exciting. So very exciting. Now, if you don’t mind me, I’ll just head off back to sleep, you can wake me when he scores 40… I mean, he scored 39 in a game! Last game! Almost everything else that…
Read MoreMario Hezonja 21 Points Full Highlights (3/2/2016)
The version of Mario Hezonja that we have now is tentative, scared of making mistakes, and not shooting especially well, even for a rookie. What happened to that cocky Croatian kid from before the draft? The one who was ready to tear up the league and dunk all over everybody? Actually, I don’t need to…
Read MoreDTB’s Best NBA Dunks of the Month (February 2016 Dunkilation)
A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE DUNK CHAPTER IV: DOUBTING NAISMITH Once mankind invented the ball, the proverbial snowball began to gather momentum when it came to the development of sports. Precursors to soccer, rugby, cricket, and volleyball all began to be played at various points in antiquity. Many of these newly conceived sports featured few…
