Eric Gordon 26 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (11/27/2016)

Eric Gordon, at 28 years old, should be in his prime right now. That age is usually when players have their primes. But the stats clearly indicate that Gordon is not in his prime right now, and that his prime was actually in his early twenties. The reason for this premature prime? Injuries. Most people…

Sean Kilpatrick 22 Points Full Highlights (11/27/2016)

The Nets were surprising me for a little bit there at the beginning of the season, not being as horrifically bad as I had anticipated. It almost seemed like their mismatched collection of castoffs was… good? Or not bad? I wanted to believe. Too bad, turns out they really just suck after all. They still…

Wilson Chandler 25 Points Full Highlights (11/27/2016)

If the Nuggets are really committed to having Wilson Chandler win the Sixth Man of the Year award, they need to stop starting him right now. RIGHT NOW. I don’t know how many starts you can have and still be eligible, but it can’t be very many, and the Nuggets don’t seem to care. Here’s…

Glenn Robinson III 17 Points Full Highlights (11/27/2016)

I officially retract all the bad things I said about Glenn Robinson III in my last video of him. Really officially. I even got a notarized document saying that I am sorry about all the bad things I typed out and how he is actually a good player and that I legally haven’t had any…

John Henson 20 Points Full Highlights (11/27/2016)

The center rotation for the Bucks is all sorts of messed up right now. They paid big bucks to Greg Monroe so they could bench him while playing him 15 minutes a game. They paid big bucks to Miles Plumlee so he could fail to accumulate any stats while starting. They paid big bucks to…

Joel Embiid 22 Points Full Highlights (11/27/2016)

What do you think it was that Joel Embiid said to Richard Jefferson after plowing him over that got him so riled up? Based on repeated watchings of the clip in question, it can’t have been something very long, a few words at most. Whatever it was, it must have been pretty offensive to Jefferson,…

Devin Booker 30 Points Full Highlights (11/27/2016)

Another game, another insane amount of shots taken by Devin Booker. Granted, excessive shooting seems to be a trend in the NBA (just a matter of time before Westbrook’s 50-shot game), so I can’t be too hard on him. He’s just watching what the superstars of the league are doing and emulating them. With not…

DTB’s Official NBA Power Rankings (Week 4)

This week’s biggest busts: Pacers -5, Hornets -4, Thunder -4, Lakers -4 This week’s biggest successes: Pelicans +8, Celtics +7, Kings +5 1. Golden State Warriors (15-2, 3-0 this week) (last week: #2 [4-0] +1) Scoring 149 points without the benefit of overtime periods is superficially impressive, I’ll admit that. However, when you take a…

Steven Adams 16 Points Full Highlights (11/26/2016)

There is only one dunk in this video and it sucks. Adams is rumbling down the lane ready to invite the entire Pistons team and the entire city of Detroit to his poster party, but Westbrook’s pass bounces off his hands and he has to stop and collect it. Then, nobody on the Pistons wants…

Jonathon Simmons 15 Points/3 Dunks Full Highlights (11/26/2016)

Idea for a new end-of-season video: a missed-dunkilation. It would be like my dunks of the year video, except instead of the dunks going in the rim the dunks would not go in the rim. Taking the dunkilation concept and turning it on it’s frickin’ head, all topsy-turvy up in here. Yet to be determined…
