David Nwaba 14 Points Full Highlights (2/24/2018)

I’m kinda talking myself into maybe considering making a David Nwaba dunkilation at the end of this season. He’s had his share of high-flying power pumps this season, but he’s also only dunked it twenty-one times in total. That puts him on par with other non-dunkers like Kosta Koufos (bald), Jrue Holiday (underrated), Harrison Barnes…

Jeff Teague 25 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (2/24/2018)

I think Timberwolves fans would like Jeff Teague a lot more if he would just run pick-and-pops with Karl-Anthony Towns every other possession like Ricky Rubio did. There’s a reason KAT is averaging so much less this season, and that reason is his point guard is more concerned with making boneheaded turnovers and generally sucking…

Taj Gibson 19 Points Full Highlights (2/24/2018)

I’m too sad about my whole entire channel getting deleted to write another sad story about how Taj Gibson tries and fails to woo his cheerleader crush Brianna. I don’t think I can face having to write up a situation where Gibson’s teammates cruelly trample his dreams in emasculating, embarrassing, or demeaning ways. Having to…

Donovan Mitchell 25 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (2/24/2018)

I don’t understand why the Jazz commentators were hyped for the “Donovan Mitchell vs. Dennis Smith Jr.” battle. Can it even be called a “battle” when they don’t play the same position? And if it even was a battle, why would you get excited for it? Mitchell’s gonna crush that matchup eight out of ten…

J.J. Barea 17 Points/12 Assists Full Highlights (2/24/2018)

In scoring seventeen points last night, J.J. Barea, at the ripe old age of 33, is officially scoring the most points per game of his career. 11.4 PPG might not seem like a lot, but when you consider that Barea has strictly been slotted into the backup role for his entire career, it’s actually pretty…

Buddy Hield 21 Points Full Highlights (2/24/2018)

Does Buddy Hield only get 23 minutes per game because he’s already so well-developed that his minutes have been reduced in favor of the raw, under-developed players on the Kings’ roster?That’s the only logical explanation I can come up with for why a skilled scorer like Hield plays so little on a team that has…

Tyler Johnson 23 Points Full Highlights (2/24/2018)

Things that annoy me about this video: -Free throws. There’s too many of them. When a player makes more free throws than he makes field goals, that’s a telltale sign that I will be annoyed by having to make the video. In this case, Tyler Johnson made just six field goals while converting on nine…

Justise Winslow 17 Points Full Highlights (2/24/2018)

Remember when Danny Ainge almost traded a gigantic package of draft picks to the Hornets in order to receive a draft pick that would guarantee him the ability to draft Justise “Bustise” Winslow? If that had gone down, the Celtics would probably be sitting at the eleventh seed in the East and Winslow would be…

Jamal Crawford 19 Points Full Highlights (2/24/2018)

With Jimmy Butler having exploded his meniscus (what is a meniscus? do I have meniscuses? how would I know if I exploded mine?), a lot of dudes on the Timberwolves are gonna have to step up to replace not only the lost production, but the lost leadership as well. Crawford, theoretically, can step up in…

Jaylen Brown 24 Points Full Highlights (2/24/2018)

Jaylen Brown allegedly had five dunks in this game against the Knicks. That is what the play-by-play data alleges. That is the NBA version of the facts. However, the DTB version of the facts states that Brown only dunked it three times. The missing dunks? They were just layups that should have been dunks except…
