Spencer Dinwiddie Career High 22 Points Full Highlights (10/29/2017)

So just a few days ago, Spencer Dinwiddie scored a then-career-high 22 points, but I failed to indicate that fact in the title of the video I made for the performance. Instead of looking up his actual career high like a sane person, I relied on a faulty memory I had of him scoring 24…

Joe Harris 16 Points Full Highlights (10/29/2017)

This is Joe Harris’ year. I can feel it. All the Nets need to do is use him like the Heat use Wayne Ellington, just run him off screens and have him pop three-pointers and don’t expect him to rebound the ball or get assists or play defense. Use him that way for twenty to…

Rondae Hollis-Jefferson 18 Points Full Highlights (10/29/2017)

I have seen a nickname for Rondae Hollis-Jefferson which I do not understand: “Ronbae”. My limited research indicates that “bae” has entered the urban vernacular as a term of endearment for one’s significant other or for an exceptionally attractive person. That part makes sense to me. I’m not one of those English-language purists whose latent…

Avery Bradley 23 Points Full Highlights (10/29/2017)

I thought that this video would go by without a single layup (“LAMEup”) from Avery Bradley, but he had to go and ruin my dreams with his clutch steal and layup near the end of the game, thus disturbing an unbroken run of sweet jumpers. I mean, yeah, it was cool that he picked Klay…

Jeremy Lamb 20 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (10/29/2017)

Just like Jaylen Brown should be writing a thank-you card to Gordon Hayward for getting injured, so should Jeremy Lamb be writing a thank-you card to Nicolas Batum for the same reason. Lamb has been held down his entire career for various reasons, however, now that coach Clifford has no choice but to give him…

Khris Middleton 27 Points/9 Assists Full Highlights (10/29/2017)

I spent pretty much the whole offseason telling anyone who would listen, and also a lot of people who wouldn’t, about how Khris Middleton was one of the best second bananas in the whole Eastern Conference. I was dedicated. I sent out mass letters to everyone in my state, I set up a call center…

Jamal Murray 26 Points Full Highlights (10/29/2017)

Jamal Murray missed the first 17 shots of his rookie season. He hasn’t been that bad so far to start the season, but he hasn’t been far off. He just finished up a stretch of 16 missed threes, and it’s not like he was making tons of other buckets/free throws to make up for it….

Domantas Sabonis 22 Points Full Highlights (10/29/2017)

I’m gonna take the easy way out of this description and take note of what already has been tweeted probably by a ton of tweeter analysts (BTW if someone could tell me how to follow people on Twotterbird that would be cool): The Pacers record when Domantas Sabonis shoots 100 percent from the field is…

Tim Hardaway Jr. 34 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (10/29/2017)

Dammit. I thought that this for sure would be Tim Hardaway Jr.’s career high is assists by far. Remember his first stint in New York? Dude never passed the ball. Ever. It got better as his career went along, but he’s never been a passing type of guy, really. Turns out, though, that he got…

Nikola Jokic 21 Points Full Highlights (10/29/2017)

I was debating tonight which order to do highlights in, and I was gonna do Nikola Jokic but maybe not until later because he only had 21, but then I remembered that he hit a Dirk-style fadeaway right in the face of Timofey Mozgov’s contract and the priority for this vid jumped like 10 levels….
