Four points is the lowest amount of points that I have shown in a highlight video in recent memory. There’s, of course, the immortal “Luke Walton 2 Points/12 Assists” video I made once upon a time, but you know that one’s extremely old because Luke Walton was a player and not a coach. There’s also…

Mike Scott 19 Points Full HIghlights (1/27/2018)
On the continuum of revenge games, where the low end is “no revenge was exacted” and the high end is “the dude just dropped sixty points of pure spite on his former team”, Mike Scott’s nineteen points against the Hawks is a little bit below the midpoint. He probably should have scored more points than…
Read MoreJaylen Brown 20 Points Full Highlights (1/27/2018)
There are rumblings that Gordon Hayward might come back from his injury before the season’s end. Jaylen Brown has a few options in this scenario: -Pretend to be happy when Hayward comes back and you get moved to the bench, but actually your soul is a tormented wasteland -Tell Hayward not to try to make…
Read MoreReggie Bullock 16 Points Full Highlights (1/27/2018)
Reggie “Ock and Bull Torture” Bullock is giving me Jordan Hill vibes. But these vibes are not the “player comparison” vibes that I usually receive. These are “hair comparison” vibes. Jordan Hill was sort of a forgotten man before he fell out of the NBA (it actually wouldn’t surprise me if he was still hiding…
Read MoreDomantas Sabonis 17 Points Full Highlights (1/27/2018)
One thing that I fear will go unnoticed if I don’t point it out right here in the first sentence before everyone loses interest and stops reading: Domantas Sabonis totally took out Lance Stephenson with a chest bump. Starting at around 1:09. I can’t tell if Stephenson flopped a little bit to make it seem…
Read MoreKhem Birch 11 Points Full Highlights (1/27/2018)
Khem “The Alkhemist” Birch is already 25 years old, just in case you were thinking about getting hyped for him. You’re still allowed to get a little hyped, but that’s because he’s Canadian, not because of what age he is. If your first thought when you first saw him (which might have been right as…
Read MoreMarkieff Morris 23 Points Full Highlights (1/27/2018)
Two good games in a row for Markieff Morris. 20 points last game, 23 points this game. A feat that he had accomplished numerous times in previous seasons, but was rare (nonexistent) this year. After tonight, I’m going to say that John Wall was the problem. I used to think Mike Scott was the problem;…
Read MoreGary Harris 24 Points Full Highlights (1/27/2018)
It’s weird to think about Gary Harris being a first-option on a team, but here we are. I’ve still got, in the back of my mind, visions of rookie-year Harris, you know, the one who sucked really bad, and those visions still slightly distort my perception of him. Even as he makes scoring look easy,…
Read MoreNik Stauskas 15 Points Full Highlights (1/27/2018)
Nik “Rain Curry” Stauskas hasn’t gotten as much run in Brooklyn as I had hoped. Things started off fine, but recently he’s been notching DNPs and hadn’t made more than two shots in a game in this calendar year. If he’s not shooting well, it’s hard to play him, I understand that. But DNPs? Kenny…
Read MoreAaron Gordon 22 Points Full Highlights (1/27/2018)
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a player of Aaron Gordon’s size and build do those stepback jumpers that he does. He’s so SPRINGY on those, and he jumps WAY back. It’s starting to seem like that’s his go to move; he even does it from behind the arc. Stepback threes are an iffy proposition…
