Tarik Black 13 Points Full Highlights (2/2/2017)

Tarik Black would definitely rank very highly on a theoretical “NBA Players You Don’t Wanna Mess With” power rankings, were I to make such a power rankings. His listed position is center but he’s only 6’9″, so you know he’s developed a lot of toughness due to constantly battling dudes taller than him. Plus, you…

James McAdoo 10 Points/3 Dunks Full Highlights (2/2/2017)

I’m going to make an honest attempt to get through this entire description without denigrating or mocking Warriors fans. Normally I would insinuate that they only care about James Michael McAdoo because they’re bandwagoners who want to pretend they have deep knowledge of their team (thus watching highlights of the Warriors’ end-of-bench scrubs). But this…

Clint Capela 22 Points Full Highlights (2/2/2017)

Dwight Howard looked up from his seated position on the bench during pregame shootarounds. “Somehow, I knew you’d be making a visit,” he said. Clint Capela smirked. “Everybody here in Houston hates your guts. Just thought I would let you know.” “Yeah, I think you already told me,” Dwight said, clearly tired of Clint’s harassment….

DeAndre’ Bembry 10 Points Full Highlights (2/2/2017)

I’m cool with apostrophes pretty much anywhere in a players’ name. Put one at the beginning, before any letters, that’s cool. Jam some in the middle, I’m down with that. You can even crunch a bunch of them all together, like five in a row, it’s your name, do whatever the heck you want man….

Marcin Gortat 21 Points Full Highlights (2/2/2017)

Marcin Gortat’s minutes are up this year, but his scoring is down. Way down. His rebounds increased with his minutes, but his shot attempts did not. What’s the deal? That’s not how things are supposed to work. More minutes = more buckets. I’d consider that truism to be a fundamental part of basketball. Without it,…

Tim Hardaway Jr. Career High 33 Points Full Highlights (2/2/2017)

I am half convinced (and growing more convinced by the second) that this game between the Hawks and Rockets was scripted. It was too perfect. Rockets take a convincing lead, and then a role-player (who happens to be the son of a well-respected multiple-time All Star) scores 23 points in the fourth quarter. He caps…

Ersan Ilyasova 25 Points Full Highlights (2/2/2017)

Here’s my honest take on the matter: the Thunder could really use Ersan Ilyasova. When was the last time someone other than Russell Westbrook scored 25 or more on that team? I was confused as heck when they traded him for Jerami Grant, and I remain confused as heck. Why would you give up one…

D’Angelo Russell 17 Points/11 Assists Full Highlights (2/2/2017)

As far as I can tell, this is the first game of D’Angelo Russell’s career where he had a high total of assists while not riding a ridiculously hot three-point shooter. Sweet! Now this is something I can get behind. 11 assists, a career high, and not all of them were to Nick Young! Some…

DTB’s Best NBA Dunks of the Month (January 2017 Dunkilation)

“You guys totally though I wouldn’t go through with it, but I did it,” Nick announced proudly, setting his tray down with more emphasis than needed and taking his seat at the lunch table with his friends. “No way you asked Jennifer out,” said Dan, shaking his head in disbelief as he glanced over to…
