The stars seemed to have been aligned perfectly for Patty Mills to have a monster game. Not only were the main scorers on his team (Leonard and Aldridge) out for various reasons, but he was matched up against a team missing all of its own star players, including the ones that play defense. When all…

Nicolas Batum 24 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (3/11/2017)
This video is just another exhibit, another piece of evidence to be used in explaining Nic Batum’s sub-40% shooting from the field (okay, fair’s fair, he dragged it up to exactly 40% after last night’s game). All his made field goals, save one, were jumpshots, and many of them were very tough jumpshots. If you…
Read MoreGary Harris 24 Points Full Highlights (3/11/2017)
The thing that blows my mind about Gary Harris is that he looked like a nothing his first season in the league. He shot 30% from the field and 20% from three. He got a consistent ten to twelve minutes per game in the second half of the season but utterly failed to do anything…
Read MoreTobias Harris 28 Points Full Highlights (3/11/2017)
Since 28 points seemed like a lot for Tobias “Tobey Bear” Harris, I had to look up what his career high was. Yes, it is shameful that I don’t know off the top of my head. I know that. I thought about pretending for the purposes of this description that I have categorical knowledge of…
Read MoreDavis Bertans 13 Points Full Highlights (3/11/2017)
After watching Davis Bertans shoot three-pointers in this video I have decided that I am going to devote the rest of my life to seeking out, consuming, and disseminating video clips of him doing that very thing. I didn’t know a big guy could shoot it so purely. Is it because he doesn’t have ACL’s…
Read MoreJose Calderon 14 Points Full Highlights (3/11/2017)
This is kind of surprising. I thought Jose Calderon was done for real this time. He got some time in Los Angeles, even earning a few starts, but then they shelved him, and I thought that was gonna be it. The end of Calderon’s memorable NBA career. Memorable in the sense that Raptors fans still…
Read MoreIan Clark Career High 36 Points Full Highlights (3/11/2017)
I’m a big fan of scrubs, don’t get me wrong, but I’m not really a big fan of elite teams resting all their good players for no reason, even if it results in more highlights of said scrubs. Some of the lineups trotted out tonight, by both teams (though the Spurs had actual injuries to…
Read MoreTaurean Prince 17 Points Full Highlights (3/11/2017)
Just putting it out there: “Taurean Prince” sounds like a sweet name for some sort of fantasy/sci-fi novel. It evokes so many things: bulls, royalty, swords, aliens, bravery, time-travel, wenches, a whole bunch of cool stuff. I know what I’m gonna be writing for my next 1000 Taurean Prince descriptions! But I don’t have time…
Read MoreNikola Jokic 20 Points Full Highlights (3/11/2017)
I’m sure you already know all about this, but I still think it’s totally bad-ass that Nikola Jokic did harness racing as a young person. It’s like horse racing, except instead of riding the beast yourself you put yourself in a little cart and get dragged behind the beast. I say it’s bad-ass because my…
Read MoreDevin Booker 36 Points/1 Game-Winner Full Highlights (3/11/2017)
Devin Booker has done it again. He’s like the Aaron Rodgers of the NBA, except he hasn’t had the soul sucked out of him by Olivia Munn. Does that count as a pop-culture reference? If I’m gonna compete with Bill Simmons I really need to get my pop-culture reference count up. Way up. Screw it….
