Kyle Anderson 16 Points Full Highlights (2/12/2018)

Is it wrong of me to want Kawhi to be injured forever so that I can keep watching the Kyle Anderson Show? I’ll go one step further and say that I hope the rumors are true, and that Kawhi is mad at the Spurs and that his whole entourage is plotting ways to get him…

Nick Young 16 Points Full Highlights (2/12/2018)

This is what I am reduced to. Making highlights for the player known as “Swaggy P” even when the amount of points he scored is decidedly non-swaggy. I suppose this is the price we pay for living in a world where Nick Young will get a championship ring; he does not play a big enough…

Bobby Portis 19 Points Full Highlights (2/12/2018)

Bobby “Crazy Eyes” Portis is definitely not a shy shooter (he’s also not a shy puncher, but that joke’s been played out). For a guy who’s not usually viewed as a big-time scorer, he puts up a lot of shots. Maybe the narrative on him should change, because I just checked his per-36 stats (truly…

Nikola Mirotic 21 Points Full Highlights (2/12/2018)

You people are going to have to give some compelling arguments if you want to see highlights of Emeka Okafor scoring 8. That fact that he took 4 years off of NBA basketball is not reason enough, nor is the fact that he is old as heck now (I swear I thought he was older…

Donovan Mitchell 25 Points Full Highlights (2/12/2018)

Donovan Mitchell took a lot of shots to get his 25 points. It didn’t end up so bad because he was so clutch at the end, but when you’re taking more shots, in this case 28, than the amount of points you have, you know it’s not a good game. By that standard, Allen Iverson…

Lauri Markkanen 21 Points Full Highlights (2/12/2018)

I think Lauri Markkanen’s arms are getting tired. The NBA season is long, the three-point line is way out there, and he’s shooting a ton of shots from back there. I think that was one of the deals with Porzingis; you could tell that he was getting fatigued in the armal area. It could be…

Joe Ingles 20 Points/1 Dunk Full Highlights (2/12/2018)

This was a seminal matchup between the Spurms and the Jizz. Ha! Get it! Seminal? Spurms? Jizz? HAHAHAHA! Wooooo! I’m making a semen joke! LMAO! Bodily functions are funny! Okay. Let’s get down to business (to defeat… the… damn, can’t remember the lyric). Joe “Patron of the Holy Spires” Ingles just put together one of…

Omri Casspi 19 Points Full Highlights (2/12/2018)

It’s a rare day when I get to make highlights of a Warriors player, and it’s an even rarer day when I get to do so with the actual Warriors commentators. The Warriors are, obviously, a top-heavy team, and they are also a nationally-televised team. I think I’ve forgotten at several points this year what…

Elfrid Payton 29 Points Full Highlights (2/12/2018)

I can’t tell what the Magic are doing right now, I don’t know why they’d sell so low on Elfrid Payton, but that’s in the past now. It doesn’t matter what they’re doing, because Payton is now a whole continent away where they can’t hurt him anymore. For the time being, at least. Another thing…

Michael Beasley 22 Points Full Highlights (2/12/2018)

Michael Beasley, with Kristaps Porzingis tragically killed in the line of duty, has returned to something resembling his Minnesota form these last three games. We’re talking first-year Minnesota form. Not second-year. The year he almost scored 20 per contest for one of the worst teams in the league. But if Beasley wants to recreate that…
