Kelly Oubre 16 Points Full Highlights (11/28/2017)

Kelly Oubre, wearing a white robe that was too small for him and surrounded by elementary-school-aged boys and girls, waited impatiently inside Jang’s Karate Studio. The place was located in a drab strip mall, but Yelp reviews had assured him that it was the best place in the DC area to learn Karate. “You’re really…

Tyus Jones 12 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (11/28/2017)

Having been given the starter’s job in relief of the injured Jeff Teague, Tyus Jones has had some good games by his standards. Last game had him notch a 9/7/7, with the last seven being steals, and this game he had a neat 12/7 line. The caveat: Tiny Tyus played forty minutes and “only” got…

Jonas Jerebko 15 Points Full Highlights (11/28/2017)

Swedish people need to tell me if there are any up-and-coming Swedish ballers that I need to be on the lookout for. Jonas Jerebko is great and everything, but he’s thirty years old, which means he only has like five years left in the league at most. I’m sure he could continue dominating the Swedish…

Royce O’Neale 11 Points Full Highlights (11/28/2017)

A few disorganized thoughts on Royce O’Neale because I don’t have enough material on O’Neale to compose several paragraphs of organized narrative about him: -I thought his last name was pronounced “Oh-Neely” but both commentators here steadfastly called him “Oh-neel” like he’s Shaq’s son or something. So I went and found an interview where O’Neale…

Derrick Favors 24 Points/3 Blocks Full Highlights (11/28/2017)

At 1:46 in this video, Rudy Gobert makes a sour face while wearing a snazzy outfit on the bench. This is during the stretch were Derrick Favors is taking over the game. What do you think Rudy was thinking right at that exact moment? -“We’d better trade Favors to another team so he can continue…

Dion Waiters 21 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (11/28/2017)

We are living in troubled times. The president of the United States freely hurls accusations at the media, saying that they lie. In response, the media says that the president lies. It is very possible, likely even, that they both are lying. These occurrences are symptoms of a problem that envelops all. A culture of…

Kris Dunn Career High 24 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (11/28/2017)

Kris “Dunn Dunn Dunn” Dunn and Jerian Grant are seemingly incapable of both having a good performance in the same game. Last game Grant goes for a career-high 24 while Dunn scores 2, this game Dunn goes for the career-high 24 and Grant scores 6. Most of the time they both suck, but it would…

Bam Adebayo 19 Points Full Highlights (11/28/2017)

All confusion I previously had involving the identities of Bam Adebayo and Dwight Howard is totally cleared up now. They, in their respective rookie years, still look absolutely one-hundred percent the same, with literally no physical traits differentiating them, but would Dwight shoot rainbow jumpers in the manner of Dirk Nowitzki? Heck no. His jumpers…

T.J. Warren 25 Points Full Highlights (11/28/2017)

T.J. Warren made a three in this game. His fourth such bucket of the season. Let’s ignore for now that that one make led him to take a bunch more of them, which all bricked. Let’s focus on the positive instead: Warren is now significantly over 10 percent shooting from deep on the year. I…

Justin Holiday 25 Points Full Highlights (11/28/2017)

I couldn’t fit all the cool stuff Justin Holiday did in the title of the video, so I kept it simple. 25 points. To go along with 3 boards, 5 assists, 2 steals, and 3 blocks. Looking at those numbers, you know who I’m thinking of? Kevin Garnett. Straight up. Except I don’t know if…
