I should have known that, one game after Malik Beasley’s then-career-high 16-point performance, the Nuggets would play only 7 guys and Beasley would have no choice but to set a new career high. I should have known, and it was foolish of me to put “Career High” in the title of that first vid when that phrase was going to be rendered incorrect only 24 hours later.
It can’t happen again, can it? If it does, I’m going to be one suspicious dude, because I am pretty sure the Nuggets/Malik Beasley don’t get to play again for a couple months. Any footage purporting to be freshly-played Nuggets games is gonna be treated with mucho wariness by me. Maybe Beasley will score 50 in some half-assed exhibition league or something, but that definitely doesn’t count. I think Spencer Hawes scored 100 in one of those, which lets you know about the quality of that stuff (Hawes highlights are totally incoming, BTW, don’t think I forgot, I’ve just got a pretty mondo backlog right now).
