Robin Lopez 20 Points Full Highlights (1/20/2018)

OFFICIAL ROBIN LOPEZ STATS THIS YEAR: 13 points, 5 rebounds on 53.7% shooting OFFICIAL BROOK LOPEZ STATS THIS YEAR: 12 points, 4 rebounds on 43.1% shooting The impossible has happened: Robin “Fropez” Lopez has better stats than his brother Brook “Blopez” Lopez. In the past there was a debate to be had over which Lopez…

Wesley Matthews 23 Points Full Highlights (1/20/2018)

Wes Matthews AKA “The Best Wes” was never the same after his Achilles tendon turned into Achilles spaghetti, but at least the Mavericks were nice enough to give him a contract that would allow him to comfortably live out the rest of his days. Matthews will definitely be picking up the $18 million player option…

Wes Johnson 17 Points Full Highlights (1/20/2018)

Allow me to reminisce for a bit. Let me take you back to the year 2013. Wes Johnson is playing for the Suns. He starts the season mostly riding the pine, getting DNP’s interspersed with bursts of eight or ten minutes of playing time. He’s only 25 years old, still on his rookie deal, but…

Marcus Georges-Hunt 12 Points Full Highlights (1/20/2018)

While a dapperly-dressed Jimmy Butler watched from the bench, Marcus Georges-Hunt went 3-of-10 from the field and scored 12 points in thirty minutes. Normally that wouldn’t qualify for a highlight video, except I’m not confident that Gorgeous Georges will ever score this many points in the NBA again. He was the definition of “fringe NBA…

Dirk Nowitzki 21 Points Full Highlights (1/20/2018)

When Dirk Nowitzki heard his doorbell ring, he strongly considered not even getting up from his couch. It was only when he remembered that he had a large shipment of German meat products arriving soon, a shipment that he would have to sign for, did he slowly lift his tall body off the comfortable sofa…

Jrue Holiday 27 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (1/20/2018)

Jrue Holiday is way more of an All-Star this year than he was the year he actually was an All-Star (friggin’ six years ago, where did the time go?), but he’s got pretty much a 0% chance of making it because Curry, Paul, Westbrook, and Lillard are all better than him. He’s averaging 19/5 on…

Nicolas Batum 26 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (1/20/2018)

With the recent revelation that Kemba Walker is on the trade block, a few other big names on the Hornets have been mentioned as on the chopping block as well. The whole reason Kemba needs to be traded is to help clear out another bad contract from the Hornets so that they can properly rebuild,…

Lauri Markkanen 19 Points/6 Dunks Full Highlights (1/20/2018)

This is the first, and possibly only for the whole rest of time (which according to scientists is approximately 100 quintillion years, so a long time for sure), time I have made a Lauri Markkanen highlight video that doesn’t have any three-pointers in it. The reason for that is simple: he didn’t make any three-pointers…

Dennis Smith Jr. 21 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (1/20/2018)

I’m really feeling this connection between Dennis Smith Jr. and Dirk Nowitzki. Young and old. Black and white. Short and tall. An unlikely pairing, no doubt, but a fruitful one. Stockton and Malone is an easy comparison to make, but those two had their whole careers to maximize their partnership, to learn each other’s curves…

Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot 16 Points Full Highlights (1/20/2018)

It’s been a rough season for Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot. He came on strong at the end of last year, putting up big games in bunches and looking smooth as heck while doing so. But things have changed in Philly Town. Minutes aren’t freely available for every half-competent bozo who walks through the doors of the practice…
